Spinning Gold (2023, D: Bogart) S: Jordan, Monaghan, Pharoah, Fogler, Isaacs, Fonseca
SPINNING GOLD, only in theaters March 31, 2023. Let’s dance!
What do Donna Summer, Parliament, Gladys Knight, The Isley Brothers, The Village People, and Bill Withers all have in common with the rock band KISS? They all rose to their musical heights under the watchful ear of the music industry's most colorful and brilliant music producer, Neil Bogart, founder of Casablanca Records, the most successful independent record company of all time. Along with a ragtag team of young music lovers, Neil and Casablanca Records would rewrite history and change the music industry forever.
Their mix of creative insanity, a total belief in each other and the music they were creating, shaped our culture and ultimately defined a generation. In a story so unbelievable that it can only be true, comes the motion picture event of the musical journey of Neil Bogart and how his Casablanca Records created the greatest soundtrack of our lives.
Some of today’s hottest music stars are playing the icons who inspired them and singing their most popular songs including Grammy and Golden Globe nominee Wiz Khalifa as George Clinton, Jason Derulo as Ron Isley of the Isley Brothers, Pink Sweat$ as Bill Withers, Grammy Award nominee Tayla Parx as Donna Summer and multi-Grammy winner Ledisi as Gladys Knight.
Spinning Gold features an all-star cast including Tony Award nominee Jeremy Jordan (Newsies, The Last Five Years), Michelle Monaghan (Mission: Impossible franchise, Gone Baby Gone), Jay Pharoah (Saturday Night Live, Bad Hair), Tony Award winner Dan Fogler (The Walking Dead, The Goldbergs), Jason Isaacs (The Harry Potter franchise, The Death of Stalin, The Patriot), Lyndsy Fonseca (Kick-Ass, Hot Tub Time Machine), Chris Redd (Saturday Night Live), Casey Likes (Almost Famous on Broadway), and comedian/actor Sebastian Maniscalco (The Irishman).

Very cool -- I'm friends with Brad Bogart, who produces reality TV like Outdaughtered. Neil Bogart was his dad.
I assume the director of this movie must be like his brother or something.

I saw the trailer for this weeks ago and thought it looked fun enough to see at home via a streaming service, but this is getting a theatrical run? It's going to be a failure even before it starts. I also read that people are pissed because they cast an actress that is fat to play Donna Summer and don't believe DS was fat during this time period. I also saw on IMDB that the budget for this was 27 million? Holy shit, that cash went somewhere but definitely not on the production. "I swear to God, Elliot, somebody is stealing from me!"

Didn't think much of this. Obviously some of the music is good, but the rest of it was rarely interesting. Also, while I liked him in Supergirl, Jordan's lead performance wasn't particularly effective.

A cool story but it seems like a B or C movie with that cast?
