    Surprising to see this so early since I think most assumed it’d be a 2025 release. Looks solid, looks like Mangold is using the visual language he established in Walk the Line. I wasn’t the biggest fan of that film but I’m hopeful this is better.

      Funnily enough, I loved Walk the Line and was excited when I saw that credit, this looks really promising in that regard. I guess we're both hoping for the same thing for different reasons.

        I like James Mangold as a director overall. Loved 3:10 To Yuma and Ford v Ferrari. And I still enjoyed Walk the Line, I just didn’t like it as much as I should have considering how big of a Johnny Cash fan I am. I’m an even bigger Bob Dylan fan so this better be good.

    I get the sense from the trailer that this will be sticking fairly rigidly to the established biopic playbook. Considering we've had some pretty creative Dylan pictures already, plus Scorsese's excellent No Direction Home documentary, this doesn't really feel necessary at all. Though I am a Dylan fan so perhaps it'll be something worth throwing on streaming down the road.

    one thing that pulls me right out of movies like this is when they don't record a live performance life. I get why they don't, but it always looks terrible.
