Lionsgate Pulls 'Megalopolis' Trailer Over Fake Quotes
Lionsgate has pulled the trailer for Francis Ford Coppola's 'Megalopolis' after it was discovered that it contained fabricated quotes from well-known critics, including Pauline Kael, Roger Ebert, and Andrew Sarris. The quotes falsely suggested that Coppola's earlier films like 'The Godfather' and 'Apocalypse Now' received negative reviews, which were intended to frame 'Megalopolis' as a future classic despite its mixed reception at Cannes. Lionsgate issued a public apology for the error, citing a failure in their vetting process. This controversy adds to the challenges faced by the film, which include allegations of unprofessional behavior by Coppola on set. 'Megalopolis' is slated for release on September 27 and stars Adam Driver, Giancarlo Esposito, and Nathalie Emmanuel.
