In a relatively short period, Margot Robbie established a sizable name for herself in the Hollywood industry and is now among the most well-known and in-demand actors. Margot Robbie’s acting career has been nothing short of remarkable, captivating audiences with her extraordinary talent, beauty, and acting skills while delivering remarkably consistent performances.
Whereas, Brad Pitt is already an established actor, producer, and one of the most influential figures in the entertainment business. Pitt has amassed an enormous fan base because of his outstanding acting throughout his career, bringing him unfathomable success, fame, and recognition worldwide. Though it failed to impress critics or viewers much, the duo’s recent movie, Babylon, gained the approval of Stephen King.
Stephen King Approves Babylon as a Cult-Classic
American novelist Stephen King writes books about horror, science fiction, fantasy, suspense, and the paranormal. He is regarded as one of literature’s best and most important writers ever. King has written a large number of books and novels, many of which have been made into films, TV shows, and TV shows.
Carrie, The Shining, The Stand, It, Pet Sematary, and Misery are a few of his best-known works. King has sold hundreds of millions of books, and they have been translated into many languages. He is a prolific author who consistently cranks out new works. King runs a number of businesses in the entertainment sector and is a wealthy businessman.
Recently, the famed celebrity shared a tweet on X claiming that Babylon will turn out to be a cult-classic twenty years down the line. He further shared that he found the plot of the film to be very entertaining and unique on top of being somewhat funny.
“Maybe this says more about me than the film, but I thought BABYLON was utterly brilliant–extravagant, over the top, hilarious, thought-provoking. Might be one of those movies that reviews badly and is acclaimed as a classic in 20 years.”
The film is set in 1920s Hollywood, a time of great change and upheaval in the film industry. Babylon suffered a great deal at the worldwide box office, only collecting a mere $63.3 million against a budget of around $110 million. Nevertheless, the movie has a fairly good IMDb rating of 7.2/10 and though it received many negative reviews, only time can tell whether the movie will become a cult classic or not.
Babylon Starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie
One of the contentious films that came out last year was Babylon, starring some of the best actors and actresses such as Tobey Maguire, Margot Robbie, and Brad Pitt. While some saw it as a masterpiece, others thought it was a chaotic mess. Babylon portrayed the lives of actors who would lose themselves in vice and decadence in order to earn a name for themselves. Its plot was set in the early days of Hollywood. The movie was a risky decision, and it was partly well-received and party hated by audiences all around the world.
Babylon won numerous awards and accolades despite its poor box office run. Some of them include the Academy Awards nominations, the BAFTA Awards, Satellite Awards, the Golden Globes, the Critics Choice Awards, and many countless others.
Babylon is available for streaming on Paramount Plus.
