<p>'Wolfs 2', the sequel to the action comedy from 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' director Jon Watts that starred <strong><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/brad-pitt-in-talks-to-join-quentin-tarantinos-the-movie-critic-23333369" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Brad Pitt</a></strong> and George Clooney, has been cancelled.</p>
<p>The confirmation comes after Collider published an interview with Watts Friday morning, as per Variety.</p>
<p>Promoting his new Disney+ 'Star Wars' series 'Skeleton Crew', the filmmaker was asked about his coming plans, responding "I don't know what I'm directing next, and I don't think there's going to be a 'Wolfs' sequel."</p>
<p>Earlier in August, Apple confirmed that it was pulling the wide theatrical release of the film, which it had partnered with Sony on as a distributor. Instead, "Wolfs" moved to a one-week limited theatrical engagement on September 20, with its debut on the streamer Apple TV+ coming a week after on September 27.</p>
<p>The abrupt new strategy, enacted just over a month ahead of release, raised some eyebrows, as Clooney had stated in 2023 that "Brad and I made the deal to do that movie where we gave money back to make sure that we had a theatrical release." But the shift to a limited run also came packaged with news that Apple had signed Jon Watts to direct, write and produce a "Wolfs" sequel, with Clooney and Pitt expected to return to play a pair of fixers operating in the criminal underworld.</p>
<p>In September, Brad Pitt and <strong><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/three-kings-george-clooney-wont-collaborate-with-david-o-russell-again-not-worth-it-23375672" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">George Clooney</a></strong> attended the Venice premiere of the film in a grand way.</p>
<p>While speaking to People at the premiere, Clooney opened up about working with long-time friend Pitt.</p>
<p>"There's nothing good about it. It's all a disaster," said Clooney jokingly. "It's fun to work with people you know really well," he added.</p>
<p>Apart from discussing their friendship, Clooney spoke about a controversial New York Times article that claimed he and Pitt were paid over USD 35 million each for their roles in Wolfs.</p>
<p>"[It was] an interesting article and whatever her source was for our salary, it is millions and millions and millions of dollars less than what was reported. And I am only saying that because I think it's bad for our industry if that's what people think is the standard bearer for salaries...it'll make it impossible to make films."</p>
<p>'Wolfs' also stars Amy Ryan, Austin Abrams and Poorna Jagannathan.</p>
