Martin Scorsese Will Make His Second Longest-Running Movie

Film fanatics can look forward to a great new movie from Martin Scorsese, and it will be called Killers of the Flower Moon. It will be a Western crime drama and will star Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Brendan Fraser, Jesse Plemons, and Lily Gladstone. The film is set to release in May 2023.

Martin Scorsese’s New Movie

Martin Scorsese Will Make His Second Longest-Running Movie

Those anticipating the new Scorsese drama will need to prepare themselves for a lengthy cinematic journey, as it is currently stated to be Martin Scorsese’s second-longest film. Scorsese appears to have great faith in his ability to deliver a compelling viewing experience to audiences. Perhaps he took note of the criticism from those who were unwilling to sit through The Irishman and decided to create another lengthy film.

For some individuals, the thought of dedicating more than three hours to view Martin Scorsese’s latest film is causing anxiety. Presently, Killers of the Flower Moon has a runtime of three hours and twenty minutes, which has resulted in the director engaging in discussions with the Cannes Film Festival about screening the movie this year. The film’s extended length is reportedly the reason for the deliberation.

Flower Moon Will Be 200 Minutes

At a runtime of 200 minutes, the Western drama is just nine minutes shorter than Martin Scorsese’s previous film, The Irishman, which clocked in at 209 minutes. This length exceeds other acclaimed Scorsese movies, such as The Wolf Of Wall Street, which has a runtime of 180 minutes, Casino, which runs for 178 minutes, and The Aviator, which lasts for 170 minutes.

The upcoming film is adapted from David Grann’s popular book of the same title. Happily, as with The Irishman, Killers of the Flower Moon is expected to be available on streaming platforms shortly after its initial release.

In this instance, the new Martin Scorsese film will be distributed by Apple TV+. As a result, viewers will have the freedom to pause the film and take breaks for refreshments or restroom visits at their convenience.

The Best (& Worst) ‘Jeopardy!’ Celebrity Guest Host Moments

The American game show Jeopardy! is currently in its 39th season, making it one of the longest-running shows on US television. Back in 2021, the then-host announced his stepping down. Since then, two stars have permanently hosted the show, though they have welcomed many guest appearances as well. In case you missed them, here are some of the best & worst guest show host moments.

Jeopardy! Host Mayim Bialik

Mayim Bialik, an actress with a Ph.D. in neuroscience, hosted the show in May and June of 2021. Just a couple of months later, she was announced as a permanent host in the show’s spin-off series. The star has said more than once what an honor it was for her to participate in Jeopardy! She said it enabled her to influence a wider audience, showing that women can be scientists and participate in such intellectual endeavors. However, Bialik isn’t the only star who’s hosted the show since 2021.

Katie Couric

Katie Couric was chosen as the first female guest host on the show. She starred from March 8th until 19th, 2021. During that time, all cumulative winnings went to an organization the veteran journalist co-founded in 2008. The money was used to support some of the most advanced cancer treatments to help patients.

Dr. Mehmet Oz

Dr. Mehmet Oz wasn’t one of the well-accepted guest hosts. He participated in the show at the end of March 2021. However, shortly after his announcement as a guest host, former contestants published an open letter in opposition to his appointment. Many feared his casting celebrates know-it-all’s opinions instead of those of academics. The celebrated doctor didn’t pay much attention to the backlash and starred in Jeopardy! anyway.

Host Aaron Rodgers

The Green Bay Packers quarterback said his time on the show was an honor he’d remember forever. He star-hosted Jeopardy! in April and brought a whopping 14% rating boost. His performance was much more successful than the two stars who preceded him – Dr. Mehmet Oz and Katie Couric.

Host Bill Whitaker

Bill Whitaker also participated in Jeopardy!, describing hosting the show as the most surreal experience of his lifetime. He was so excited that he felt he had to pinch himself back to reality, as he couldn’t believe where he was. He also commented on the challenges he faced. Up to then, he was used to talking to just one camera. On the game show, however, there are different cameras used at particular moments, making it much more fast-paced than everything else he had done.
