Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis continues streak of bad press as Lionsgate's latest trailer uses fake critic quotes

Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis’ road to the big screen has been a bumpy one to say the least, and one has to wonder how many more scandals can befall it before its planned September 27 release date in the United States. The latest drama comes from a bunch of fabricated critic quotes plastered all over the new trailer that Lionsgate has put together.Following a less-than-ideal reception (only 53% of critics on RT gave it a thumbs up) at the Cannes Film Festival 2024, some crew members claimed that Coppola’s on-set behavior was unprofessional to say the least.
