The first trailer for writer/director Kristoffer Borgli’s The Drama starts off with a dream pairing—it’s Zendaya (playing Emma), and Robert Pattinson (playing Charlie) as a young couple preparing for their wedding. They’re beautiful, they seem kind, and, charmingly, they seem a bit nervous. They’ve arrived at a photographer’s studio to get some pre-wedding shots, but their nerves have them a little too tight for the photographer’s liking.

How “Wicked” & “Wicked: For Good” Editor Myron Kerstein Balanced Two Films, Two Tones, One Story

When I sat down with editor Myron Kerstein, it was immediately clear why director Jon M. Chu keeps bringing him back. Kerstein has the rare ability to blend a technical rigor with emotional intuition, a combination that has served him well on films like Crazy Rich Asians, In the Heights, and now, the two-part cinematic event Wicked and Wicked: For Good.

“If you think about it, Madam Morrible, MM, flip it around, WW, Wicked Witch.”

No Good Deed Goes Unscored: The Musical Masterminds Behind “Wicked: For Good”

Stephen Oremus was there at the beginning, playing piano at Wicked‘s first showcase in the basement of Los Angeles’ Coronet Theater. Also in attendance: composer-lyricist Stephen Schwartz, writer Winnie Holzman, and ten singers who performed the musical’s first act for producer Marc Platt. “Even before there was a director attached or anything, we pieced together this very early version of Act One,” recalls executive music producer Oremus. “It was about three hours long!”

Scarlett Johansson in Final Talks to Join Robert Pattinson in “The Batman: Part II”

Scarlett Johansson’s years of service in the MCU have been over for some time now, but the star looks prepared to begin a new tour of duty in DC’s most dangerous city.

Johansson is reportedly in final talks to join Robert Pattinson in Gotham City in The Batman: Part II, the long-simmering follow-up to director Matt Reeves’ stellar 2022 film. Johansson would add considerable star power to a film that’s certainly not lacking for it,

“Hamnet” Composer Max Richter on the Song That Gave Director Chloé Zhao an Epiphany to Rewrite the Film’s Ending

The bard and his muses live again. Director Chloé Zhao’s Hamnet, the film adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s award-winning 2020 historical novel, is enrapturing audiences in theaters now. Zhao both co-wrote the screenplay with O’Farrell and co-edited the film, which follows the passionate but complicated relationship between a young scribe named William Shakespeare (Paul Mescal) and his incandescent wife, Agnes (a phenomenal Jessie Buckley). It is a story loosely based on what is known of Shakespeare’s life.

“Sinners” Writer/Director Ryan Coogler on Channeling Louisiana’s Creative Rhythm Into His Period Monsterpiece

Sinners, written, produced, and directed by Ryan Coogler, is hands down one of the year’s biggest cinematic successes. Coogler’s passion project found the filmmaker at the peak of his powers, and fans already primed to see anything from the still young visionary were ready to go once Sinners bowed. Yet it wasn’t just Coogler fans who flocked to the theaters—critical raves and word of mouth turned Coogler’s original period vampire epic into an early-year smash.

Chloé Zhao’s period drama Hamnet follows a spirited young couple in 16th-century England — the earthy, radiant Agnes (a superb Jessie Buckley) and her besotted, occasionally brooding husband Will (an also excellent Paul Mescal), who channels his own formidable gifts onto the page (and becomes, of course, the Bard). Their love is tested in the most extreme ways, as Will’s career aspirations and the death of their young son, Hamnet (Jacobi Jupe),

“Avatar: Fire and Ash” Reactions Hail James Cameron’s Scorching Cinematic Spectacle

The first reactions to James Cameron’s third Avatar installment have arrived after the film had a handful of press screenings on Monday night. It seems that, once again, Cameron has delivered another stunningly ambitious epic.

Fire and Water arrives only a few years after the second film in the franchise, The Way of Water, thanks to the fact that Cameron and his team shot The Way of Water and Fire and Ash back-to-back.

“Kiss of the Spider Woman” Costume Designers Colleen Atwood & Christine L. Cantella Conjure Old Hollywood Magic

Kiss of the Spider Woman is threaded with beauty and pain, glamour and magic. Based on the stage musical and the original novel by Manuel Puig, Bill Condon’s film is a movie about the power of escapism and how love can inspire, even in the darkest of circumstances. Condon’s adaptation is a love story, a war story, and a musical — all tied together with old school cinematic bravura.

Based on Maggie O’Farrell’s novel — who also co-wrote the screenplay with Zhao — Hamnet imagines that William Shakespeare’s (Paul Mescal) renowned stage play Hamlet was inspired by the death of his son, Hamnet (Jacobi Jupe). This story centers on his wife,

How “Stranger Things” Revived the 1980s: From Eggo Waffles to Kate Bush

Most people who lived through the 80s remember the big hair, questionable neon fashion, and analog inconveniences with a mix of fondness and maybe some regret. And yet, somehow, Stranger Things has convinced Gen Z that physical media is cool and mullets should make a comeback. Fashion quickly followed, with people searching for vintage denim jackets and other 80s-inspired clothes.

What started as a supernatural adventure set in 1983 has grown into a cultural force that does far more than reference nostalgia.

The Boy Who Survived: Will Byers’ Journey to the “Stranger Things” Finale

Since returning from the Upside Down in the first season, Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) has never truly been the same. Haunted by possession, sensing the hive mind and the lingering presence of Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower), Will moves through Hawkins with the weight of an entire other world on his shoulders. Some fans believe that Vecna was the force that first pulled Will into the darkness, setting everything in motion. 

“Stranger Things” Season 4 Recap: Getting Upside Down From Eddie’s Guitar Solo to Vecna’s Revenge

We took you through the first three seasons of all the supernatural doings in Hawkins, Indiana. It’s not often that a show surges to its peak level of popularity in the fourth season, but that’s precisely what happened with the Duffer Brothers’ juggernaut series.
