‘Josephine’ Trailer & Release Date: Gemma Chan & Channing Tatum In Sundance Hit
“Josephine, can you tell me what you saw?”
Those seven words solidify the premise for Josephine, sophomore writer-director Beth de Araújo’s drama that has major awards buzz after landing the Grand Jury Award and Audience Award at Sundance in January. Today we got our first trailer for the film — watch it above — along with its theatrical release date.
Thge official logline: After 8-year-old Josephine (Mason Reeves) accidentally witnesses a crime in Golden Gate Park, she begins to act out violently to protect herself. This emotional trauma leads to conflicts between her parents (Channing Tatum and Gemma Chan) as they search for justice and a way to feel safe again.
The trailer is short on dialogue but long on tension as the parents struggle with how their little girl is dealing with sudden emotional upheaval. But not everyone is on the little one’s side. To wit, one grownup asks the third-grader, “If what you say you saw was so bad, why did you just watch from behind a tree?”
The double Sundance win fired up awards-season watchers, who recall that Best Picture winner CODA and nominee Minari and turned the same trick in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
In a competitive environment, Ash Avildsen’s Sumerian Pictures paid mid-seven figures to acquire U.S. rights to Josephine in February. The self-described “artists-led independent creative studio” has set a limited theatrical release for the awards-season sweet spot of November 20. The rollout will expand nationwide on December 4.

Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato on Camp Rock 3, New Gen Disney Stars
The Jonas Brothers are going back to their Disney roots, both executive producing and reprising their Camp Rock roles in the franchise’s third film.
Camp Rock 3 sees the brothers’ band Connect 3 returning to the camp to look for a new opening act for their tour. This means a whole new cast of campers — led by Malachi Barton and Liamani Segura — are introduced, along with a cameo appearance from fellow O.G. star Demi Lovato (who also serves as an EP).
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at the film’s L.A. premiere on Monday, Joe Jonas said that in shooting scenes with Lovato, they “both were looking at these new campers kind of pinching ourselves like wow, this is a pretty wild full circle moment. We’ve all lived so much life and to be where we are today and to create something like this, Camp Rock 3, as producers, wearing the producer hat, I think we were like, ‘This is kind of wild.’”
Walking the carpet alongside Nick Jonas and Kevin Jonas, Joe also weighed in on getting to know the next generation of Disney stars, and how different it is now than when the brothers were first getting famous.
“I don’t envy anybody that’s doing this now, there’s probably a lot more scrutiny,” Joe noted. “Things happen a lot faster, and with that you also have an opportunity to kind of explain yourself quicker; when we were starting, we didn’t have a lot of options — just kind of hope that the article isn’t about you. Now you can at least go on your TikTok and say, ‘Hey guys, I didn’t say that’ or whatever it is.”
Joe Jonas also emphasized that there are more resources now to speak to professionals and get support from the studio, and “we also wanted to make sure that we were running a safe space on set. That was one of our priorities when we signed up to do this, we were like, ‘We want these kids to feel comfortable,’ because ultimately we remember what it was like and it can be a lot of pressure. They’re about to be shot out of a cannon into stardom, so we wish them the best and we hope they’re surrounded by love and care.”
Lovato said she also offered the new stars plenty of advice, telling them that “this is going to be a whirlwind and make sure to take breaks if you need them; it’s so important to protect your mental health, and to soak it up and to have fun. That’s the most important part.”
The pop star explained that returning to Camp Rock almost two decades after the sequel was “really healing for me,” as “Camp Rock has meant so much to so many people and it’s meant so much to me; this was the beginning of my journey in this industry and [my character] Mitchie will always have a huge, special place in my heart.”
Camp Rock 3 premieres Thursday on Disney Channel and the next day on Disney+.

Broadway’s ‘Death Of A Salesman’ & ‘Cats: The Jellicle Ball’ Soar In Final Weeks
Cats: The Jellicle Ball and Death of a Salesman ended their Broadway runs on very high notes, posting the biggest grosses of their engagements.
Jellicle, closing five months earlier than planned and prompting considerable discussion (and lamentation) within the industry about production costs and the dim odds of scoring a big musical hit these days, grossed $1,828,306 for its final week at the Broadhurst, a jump of $422,597 over the previous week (which, at the time, was its best-ever number). The show was standing room only, with an average ticket price of $193.92, a strong number if still noticeably lower than the $239.61 average for Salesman, the $211.37 for Hamilton or the $220.10 for Ragtime. (Overall average ticket price on Broadway was $130.95.)
Death of a Salesman, starring Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf, sold out the Winter Garden yet again, and grossed a whopping $2,509,387. That’s an increase of $286,937 and by far the biggest gross of its big-grossing run.
Also up considerably was Every Brilliant Thing, taking in a strong $886,815 for its final week, a jump of $229,364 over the previous week. The show, starring Tracee Ellis Ross, was a virtual sell-out at 99.6% of capacity at the Hudson. The final gross was the best showing for Ross’ tenure, though short of the $1 million+ grosses that were routine during the runs starring Daniel Radcliffe and Mariska Hargitay. The show peaked at $2,296,473 with Radcliffe’s final week at the end of May.
Despite the big upturns for the closers, most Broadway productions saw at least some dips last week, perhaps due to the competition with the three departing shows, or maybe just some summer wilting. The Lost Boys and Schmigadoon! took the most significant drops, with the former sliding $161,077 to $1,354,926 and the latter down $118,950 to $1,034,918. Dips notwithstanding, decent numbers for the August dog days.
In addition to Jellicle, Salesman and Brilliant Thing, the week’s sell-outs were Hadestown, Hamilton, Oh, Mary! and Ragtime. Coming in just short of sell-out, with at least 95% of seats filled, were Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Just in Time, MJ, Operation Mincemeat, Schmidagoon!, The Lion King and The Outsiders.
In addition to Salesman, two productions grossed in excess of $2 million: Hamilton ($2,268,037) and The Lion King ($2,241,283).
At 80% of capacity or less were Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York), 69%, for a gross of $527,150; Titanique, 79%, $759,367; Stranger Things: The First Shadow, 77%, $854,835; Six, 71%, $576,816; and
Chicago, 78%, $742,764.
In all, Broadway’s 29 productions grossed $33,716,025, about even with the previous week’s total and up 9% from last season at this time. Total attendance was 257,464, down 2% from the previous week and up 2% year-to-year.
In the 11th week of the 2026-27 season, Broadway has grossed $385,441,582, down about 4% from last year at this time, with total attendance of 3,121,255 holding steady.
