This is just the latest controversy tied to Megalopolis, which Francis Ford Coppola spent $120 million of his own money to fund.
If you missed seeing the Megalopolis trailer, it features negative pull quotes from reviews of some of Coppola’s past movies, including The Godfather, Apocalypse Now and Dracula.
However, now Lionsgate, which is handling the upcoming 2024 movie’s distribution, is is pulling the trailer from theaters and online.
The reason: it uses movie review quotes that were made up.
