HBO wanted to produce Masters of the Air but Apple+ gave them a bigger budget. John Orioff came out and said that HBO wanted Masters of the Air bad. Apple+ has been putting out a lot of good stuff and even Apple Films is snatching big names. You think people are looking down on Martin Scorsese because he went with Apple Films for Killers of the Flower moon? "Relegated to Apple" isn't a thing that you think it is. They chose Apple.


I'm a really glad to hear that. Glad to see they got a deal deserving of their talent. Still, Apple+ is "being relegated" in the minds of most. Seems short sighted on their part.

Even so, this is an example of "big names" (known quantities) similar to Chris Nolan. Where are the creators who aren't known quantities who are getting films/shows greenlit by Hollywood?

This is why discussions like this are useless. It doesn’t matter what someone else says, everyone just goes back to their original thoughts.

You've previously heard to the creator/writer/director of every single current film/tv project?
