The studio premiered the trailer, but quickly faced backlash after it was revealed that the quotes attributed to critics were untrue. A Lionsgate spokesperson released a statement acknowledging the error: “Lionsgate is pulling the Megalopolis trailer, effective immediately. We sincerely apologize to critics, as well as Francis Ford Coppola and American Zoetrope, for this unforgivable error in our review process. We messed up. ‘We’re sorry.'”
According to Deadline, the denial was a major embarrassment for Lionsgate, as well as the film’s director Francis Ford Coppola and production company American Zoetrope.
