@FilmSnobbery Thanks, Nic. This is much needed!

This is devastating news. The world needs more film magazines, not less. I've loved writing for Total Film for the past few years and it's been a privilege to work with such a kind and talented team. Love to everyone at TF during this horrible time. It will be missed!

Very sad to share this news. More to come from me later this week when we reveal the final covers, but for now I’ll just say it’s been the privilege of a lifetime to work on the mag with such an incredible team, including all those whose shoulders I stand on. A childhood dream fulfilled
