Exclusive: Ryan Coogler to Produce Universal’s Jukebox Musical Based on Prince’s Greatest Hits

Plus, my thoughts on 'Road House,' 'Immaculate,' 'Late Night With the Devil,' 'Femme,' and the 'Beetlejuice 2' trailer.

Happy Friday, everyone! Apologies for not sending a newsletter last night, I was wiped all day and on top of having low energy, it was a slow news day. Without a lightning bolt of inspiration, I decided to let sleeping dogs lie. Besides, everyone was watching the NCAA tournament anyway…

I hope to make up for it tonight with a scoop that puts a cap on a pretty good week, all things considered. Thanks to everyone who threw me a tip or took me to lunch. I appreciate the support — something we could all throw Kate Middleton’s way in the wake of her cancer diagnosis. No matter how badly Buckingham Palace bungled this announcement, my heart goes out to the Royal Family.

In tonight’s newsletter, you’ll read about Ryan Coogler producing a jukebox musical based on the music of Prince; my thoughts on this weekend’s genre releases Immaculate, Late Night With the Devil, and Femme, plus the new Beetlejuice Beetlejuice trailer; and also Adam Sandler, Martin Scorsese, Chris Pratt, Paul Thomas Anderson, David Ayer, George Miller, and Deadline’s Justin Kroll.
