You wanna get nuts? C’mon, let’s get nuts. Through no fault of his own, Michael Keaton’s fun, nostalgic return as Batman had imploded when The Flash would debut to disaster and his follow-up in Batgirl would equally become infamous by getting shelved and locked away. Keaton is bouncing back in a big way with his second directorial effort, Knox Goes Away. Keaton’s directorial debut came in 2008 with the crime thriller, The Merry Gentleman. The trailer for Knox Goes Away has dropped courtesy of Saban Films and features a quote from our own Chris Bumbray, which was also featured on the poster, which says Keaton gives “A career-best performance.”
Knox Goes Away revolves around a contract killer who, after being diagnosed with a fast-moving form of dementia, is presented with the opportunity to redeem himself by saving the life of his estranged adult son. But to do so,...

Michael Keaton is back, releasing the trailer for Knox Goes Away, the story of a principled hit man.
Saban Films has set the U.S. release date for Knox Goes Away, the thriller marking Michael Keaton’s second feature behind the camera, in which he also stars opposite Al Pacino, James Marsden, Marcia Gay Harden, and more. Pic will bow exclusively in theaters nationwide on March 15, having launched out of last year’s Toronto Film Festival.
Scripted by Gregory Poirier (National Treasure: Book of Secrets), Knox Goes Away has Keaton playing John Knox, a hit man attempting to make amends before his recently discovered dementia takes over. Aided by a trusted friend (Pacino) with his own shady past, Knox races against the police — and his own rapidly deteriorating mind — to save his estranged son (Marsden) from a vengeance-fueled mistake and “cash out” before it’s too late.
Also starring in the pic are Suzy Nakamura,...

Michael Keaton faces no shortage of obstacles as an aging assassin in the trailer for Knox Goes Away.
The trailer was released Wednesday for the thriller that features Keaton as director and star. The movie centers on Keaton as a hit man diagnosed with dementia who learns that his estranged son (James Marsden) needs help after committing a violent crime.
“I’ve never asked you for anything in my life,” Marsden says in the footage. “But I’m desperate.”
Later, Keaton acknowledges the reality of his deteriorating health: “It’s like a curtain coming down. I’m running out of time.”
Keaton directed the film from a script by Gregory Poirier. Marcia Gay Harden and Al Pacino co-star in the project that counts Nick Gordon, Trevor Matthews, Michael Sugar and Ashley Zalta as producers.

DC fans have been eagerly anticipating the return of Michael Keaton as Batman in ... well, he was supposed to appear in the canceled "Batgirl," but as far as we know right now, no one will get to look at that. All signs point to the release of "The Flash" — despite the troubling issues with its star Ezra Miller — where Keaton will don the suit of the caped crusader, but nothing is 100 percent right now. While some of us (me ... it's me) are praying to the comic book gods that Keaton's Batman will indeed return, we do have something of his to look forward to.
Michael Keaton will be making his directorial debut in the upcoming noir thriller "Knox Goes Away," which he will also star in. Principal photography has already wrapped on the film, according to Deadline. He's got some drama-heavy hitters involved, including Al Pacino, but also comedy stars like the brilliant Suzy Nakamura.

Michael Keaton’s revival of his Batman may have hit delays and snags, but the actor’s dramatic career is still steady as he has stepped behind the camera to direct his second feature with Knox Goes Away.

Deadline now reports that Keaton’s sophomore effort will include a cast of names such as James Marsden, Marcia Gay Harden, and Al Pacino. The plot synopsis reads, “Keaton plays John Knox, a contract killer diagnosed with a fast-moving form of dementia. He vows to spend his final days attempting to redeem himself by saving the life of his estranged adult son (Marsden). He finds himself in a race against the authorities as well as the ticking clock of his own rapidly deteriorating mind.

Providence, Oct 1 (Ians) Jamaica Tallawahs were crowned the 2022 Caribbean Premier League (Cpl) champions as they cruised to an eight-wicket win over the Barbados Royals here.
Brandon King (83), with the bat, and Fabian Allen (3 for 24), with the ball, were their star performers.
It was the third title win for Jamaica Tallawahs, who also won the Cpl in 2013 and 2016. They have won each time they entered the final. Barbados, champions in 2014 and 2019, have now lost two finals — in 2015 to Trinidad and Tobago and in 2022 to Jamaica Tallawahs.
Barbados Royals won the toss and chose to bat. They got off to a superb start with Rahkeem Cornwall (36) and Kyle Mayers (29) getting them 63 runs in the powerplay.
However, Fabian Allen removed both openers in successive overs to bring the Tallawahs back into the game. The run rate also slowed down but Azam Khan put Barbados back in the saddle. Azam Khan (51) continued his fine...
