Clooney and Brad Pitt’s ‘Wolfs’ Gets Sequel as Apple Pivots Theatrical Release to One-Week Limited Rollout

Apple Original Films is shaking up its release strategy as it doubles down on the upcoming action-comedy “Wolfs,” starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

Apple has made a deal with director Jon Watts to helm, write and produce a sequel for the A-list stars.

The film, which will premiere at the 81st Venice International Film Festival, was originally slated for a wide release before hitting Apple TV+. Now, it’s set for a one-week limited theatrical release on Sept. 20, followed by an Apple TV+ debut on Sept. 27.

It is the laugh you hear first. Heh heh heh heh heh. Unhurried. Like he’s got all the time in the world to do it. Some of the buildings here at Château Miraval, where Brad Pitt is just now tumbling out from wherever he spent the night, cup of coffee in hand, are nearly 200 years old, and the laugh rings off the stonework: heh heh heh heh heh. It rings through the terraces of olive trees. It ruffles the stone pots of lavender and rosemary. It sends the literal butterflies alighting on literal pink blossoms into the air, up towards the Provençal sky, which is the same soft blue as it was when Matisse painted it. It echoes off the lake and the vineyards and the ancient chapel and the black Mercedes convertible, top down, that is now arriving, with George Clooney at the wheel. Black sunglasses. Black polo. Loafers. When he sees Pitt, he yells: Brother! And then you hear the laugh again: heh heh heh heh heh.

Wolfs Was Written Specifically For George Clooney And Brad Pitt: ‘It’s Like Two Michael Claytons’

Fresh from wrapping up his MCU Spider-Man trilogy to thunderous effect in No Way Home, filmmaker Jon Watts has ploughed his success into two major new projects. Before too long, we’ll see the Star Wars series he’s helped devise, the kids-lost-in-space adventure series Skeleton Crew. But away from the franchise world, Watts has used his cache to make an original crime movie – with two of Hollywood’s biggest A-listers starring side by side. Get ready for Wolfs, in which two lone-wolf crime scene fixers realise they’ve both been hired to take on the same clean-up job. What happens, then, when Jack (aka George Clooney) and Nick (aka Brad Pitt) are forced to work in close proximity, while finding themselves increasingly out of their depth?

That’s the question that drove Watts to write his screenplay, from which he also directs. “I just wanted to know what it would be like if two of those guys met,” he tells Empire in the Joker: Folie À Deux issue. “Would they kill each other? Or would they become best friends?” The partnership of Jack and Nick is absolutely intended to play on audiences’ existing associations with Clooney and Pitt.

Five years after “Joker” won the top prize at the Venice Film Festival, filmmaker Todd Phillips is returning with the sequel. “Joker: Folie à Deux” will play in competition with 20 other titles, festival organizers.

The lineup for the 81st edition of the festival, unveiled early Tuesday, also includes new films starring Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig and Jude Law.

Pitt and Clooney will reunite in Jon Watts’ “Wolfs,” an adrenaline packed action-comedy about a few fixers that will screen out of competition.

How Brad Pitt’s F1 movie immersed itself in the racing world: ‘People creating magic’

Standing in the media pen with his hands on hips, overalls undone to the waist and sunglasses on, Brad Pitt looked like any other Formula One driver as he paused before stepping up to the microphone after qualifying for the British Grand Prix.

But unlike the rest of the grid, his interview would only start on the call of “action!” and be captured by multiple cameras, getting the latest scene for Pitt’s upcoming movie, “F1,” due for release in June 2025. In the regular post-qualifying media rush, as reporters waited to speak to the drivers after their sessions, F1’s paddock doubled as a movie set.

From the very start of on-site filming at Silverstone last year, the paddock has embraced “F1”. Led by the “Top Gun: Maverick” director/producer duo of Joe Kosinski and Jerry Bruckheimer, and with Lewis Hamilton serving as a producer, the ability to film on race weekends and truly immerse in the usual operations of the F1 paddock has been critical to its authenticity.
