Brad Pitt, George Clooney Filming ‘Wolfs’ Sequel Cancelled due to Lack of Trust

Brad Pitt and George Clooney fans might have to wait a little longer for a sequel to their recent onscreen collaboration, “Wolfs.” Despite being a major hit on Apple TV+, the film’s director, Jon Watts, decided to cancel plans for a follow-up installment after a disagreement with the streaming service.

According to Deadline, “Wolfs” topped the charts on Apple TV+ and was set to have a sequel. However, things took a turn when the streaming service decided to change the release plans from a wide theatrical debut to a streaming release without much warning or discussion. This shift in strategy left Watts feeling blindsided and ultimately led him to pull the plug on the sequel.

In a statement to Deadline, Watts expressed his disappointment with the last-minute change and the lack of transparency in the decision-making process. Despite his enthusiasm for the film and working with the star-studded cast, including Brad Pitt and George Clooney, he no longer felt comfortable moving forward with Apple TV+ as a creative partner.

Following the cancellation, representatives for Watts, Pitt, Clooney, and Apple TV+ have yet to respond to requests for comments on the matter. This news comes after “Wolfs” premiered at the Venice Film Festival, where Clooney addressed speculation about the film’s release and the cast’s involvement.

Clooney revealed that both he and Pitt had made some financial sacrifices to ensure a theatrical release for “Wolfs.” Despite the challenges in the industry post-COVID, the film managed to secure a limited release in theaters, much to the delight of fans eager to see the dynamic duo on the big screen.

Overall, the decision to halt the sequel has left fans disappointed, but it sheds light on the complexities of navigating release strategies and the changing landscape of the entertainment industry. While the future of “Wolfs” remains uncertain, one thing is clear – the collaboration between Pitt and Clooney continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.
