What are the Russo Brothers doing differently with The Gray Man?
Since Anthony and Joe Russo have taken on the world of Marvel, they’ve spent their years afterward working on personal projects and actively changing their perceptions of what “cinema” even means anymore. Currently, the Russo brothers have a movie called The Gray Man coming out on July 22 on Netflix. It will have played in theaters roughly a month before hitting the streamer.
This is very different than the event films they did for Marvel, which totally revolved around when they hit the big screen.
“The Theater Is a ‘Sacred Space’ Is Bullshit”
Having both perspectives has put the brothers at the center of what they call a “crisis” Hollywood faces because of a “culture war” on how films are made and released. It seems like everyone has a side they’re on—the core of it is streaming versus theatrical.
