I just confirmed with the Chicago publicist for The Weinstein Co. and Lionsgate that “Rambo,” which will open on Jan. 25, won’t screen for critics in Chicago.
Does anyone know if this just applies to Chicago or the entire U.S.?
'Rambo' will now screen in Chicago!
Just moments ago, the same Chicago publicist who earlier told me “Rambo” won’t screen in Chicago just sent me a last-minute invitation to screen “Rambo” in Chicago! It’ll screen on Wednesday night and has an embargo for Friday, which is when the film opens. How strange…
Know-it-all v. Lionsgate Publicist
Jeff Wells from LA:
Ah hah. That's the answer.
That says it all. We already knew they were afraid to let critics loose on this one. That’s clearly admitting it.
