Brad Pitt, George Clooney’s ‘Wolfs’ director cancels sequel because he ‘no longer trusted’ streaming service
Fox News
Brad Pitt and George Clooney's film "Wolfs" will not be getting a sequel despite its success, after the film's director and Apple disagreed over release strategy.
However, the film’s director, Jon Watts, pulled the plug after a disagreement with the streaming service. "But the truth is that Apple didn’t cancel the ‘Wolfs’ sequel, I did, because I no longer trusted them as a creative partner."
"I showed Apple my final cut of ‘Wolfs’ early this year," Watts told Deadline. "They were extremely enthusiastic about it and immediately commissioned me to start writing a sequel. But their last-minute shift from a promised wide theatrical release to a streaming release was a total surprise and made without any explanation or discussion. I wasn’t even told about it until less than a week before they announced it to the world."
