An all-star collision that redefines prestige cinema for 2025 with music from by Beyoncé, co-written by Dean McIntosh (Arrow Benjamin).

When Paul Thomas Anderson announces a new film, the world pauses—and with ‘One Battle After Another’, it isn’t just pausing. It’s holding its breath.

From Warner Bros Pictures, this autumnal cinematic offering feels like a masterstroke before we’ve even seen a single frame. Leonardo DiCaprio—an Oscar and BAFTA winner whose name still makes headlines with a whisper—takes centre stage in a story draped in tension, resilience, and raw emotion. Flanking him are fellow giants Benicio del Toro and Sean Penn, lending the film the kind of gravitas only decades of sharp, soul-bearing performances can bring.

But Anderson doesn’t stop at legacy. Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, Chase Infiniti, Wood Harris, and Alana Haim (back under Anderson’s directing gaze) bring layered, modern vibrancy to the mix. It’s a bold blend of Hollywood’s past, present, and what’s next. With his own screenplay in hand, Anderson’s fingerprints are everywhere—from his longtime collaborations with Michael Bauman and editor Andy Jurgensen, to the return of Jonny Greenwood’s haunting, highbrow compositions. Add in the brilliance of Colleen Atwood’s costume design and Florencia Martin’s visual worlds, and ‘One Battle After Another’ feels less like a film and more like a living museum of modern auteurship.

Expect conversations about legacy, survival, and humanity’s quiet wars. Expect the kind of silences that shake theatres. And when it opens in theatres and IMAX on September 26, 2025, expect a long, standing ovation—possibly before the credits even roll.
