Chris Evans Grows Reflective as Avengers: Endgame Nears
Despite denials that Avengers: Endgame will be Chris Evans’ final turn as Steve Rogers, he still sounds like he’s on the Captain America farewell tour.
The MCU star has been having a tough time coming to terms with the final showdown against Thanos. He seems to be more broken up by the coming of the latest installment than his fellow castmates. There have been rumors that Endgame will mark Evans’ final bow as one of the original Avengers and an interview with The Hollywood Reporter doesn’t do much to squash that suspicion...

James Wan Shares First Peek at Annabelle Comes Home
Before he was the man who brought Aquaman to the big screen, James Wan was already making waves with his films. He is the driving creative force behind the deliciously creep Conjuring universe. One member of that universe is the doll Annabelle, who first appeared in Wan’s 2013 Conjuring and then in her own film—a prequel—in 2014. Now Wan’s creation is getting her third film. Annabelle Comes Home. ...
Reports put Avengers: Endgame Runtime at 182-Minutes Long
You know the excitement around a film is huge when its purported runtime is an ongoing story. The Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Endgame is going to be the longest, largest film in Marvel‘s history. We know that based on what the film represents—it’s the culmination of 10-years and 22 films worth of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It represents the end of Marvel’s Phase 3. It is very likely the swan song for one of the MCU’s biggest and stars and most important characters—Chris Evans’...

What little we know about Todd Phillips’ Joker we owe to the writer/director himself. We know that Joker is currently being edited thanks to Phillips’ Instagram page—we also have a new look at Joaquin Phoenix in the title role. Phoenix’s take on arguably the most iconic supervillain will be worth the price of admission alone.
The new photo appears to show Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck before he becomes the Clown Prince of chaos...

What’s this about a “rabbit hole”?...
Does the new Avengers: Endgame TV Spot Hint at Cap’s Death?
We were just writing about how Marvel has wisely kept Avengers: Endgame footage limited. Although they recently released a “final” trailer, which followed their big Super Bowl spot and the first trailer, we argued the studio has kept these looks limited in scope. This new TV spot—which opens with the Marvel logo disintegrating into dust—once again delivers the chills without much in the way of new footage...
Watch the Grimmer Alternate Opening for Bumblebee
You can now get a glimpse of what a different kind of Bumblebee film might have looked like. Director Travis Knight’s beloved stand-alone film is already available on digital HD and will be released on Blu-ray release next month. This means Paramount has been racing out a slew of special features. One of those is a much grimmer opening scene that would have likely set the stage for a very different version of the film. The one we did get was pretty special...

Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter reunited as their super rad band from Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Wyld Stallyns. The pair shared a video from one of the coolest concert venues in the world,...
The First Hellboy Clip has Arrived
The first official Hellboy clip is here. Professor Bruttenholm (Ian McShane) has an intriguing offer for his adopted son from hell (David Harbour)—a mission to The Osiris Club. We’ve gotten a better sense of how director Neil Marshall’s Hellboy is blazing its own trail via the trailers. Guillermo del Toro’s beloved two Hellboy films meant Marshall and his star Harbour had their work cut out for them. From what we’ve seen,...
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Photos Highlight Robbie, DiCaprio & Pitt
We’ve got our first look at Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which boasts a phenomenally talented cast and a setting ripe for his particular talents. The story takes place in 1969 in Southern California and is centered on Leonardo DiCaprio‘s fading star Rick Dalton and his stunt double, Brad Pitt’s Cliff Booth. The two performers happen to live next door to star Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie), thus putting them in proximity to the most famous murders in American history...
Christopher Nolan Casts John David Washington in Mysterious Next Film
What do you think when you hear the term “event film”? Mega superhero blockbuster like Avengers: Endgame? A star-studded movie from an acclaimed director like Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? Something else entirely? We ask because that is how Christopher Nolan’s mysterious new film is being described. Variety reports that Nolan has cast BlacKkKlansman star John David Washington in his next project. ...
Groove to the First Trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
The first glimpse at Quentin Tarantino‘s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is here. While the trailer doesn’t deliver much by the way of the storyline, it does reveal a few of our key players. There are Leonardo DiCaprio‘s fading star Rick Dalton and his stunt double, Brad Pitt’s Cliff Booth. There’s an especially fun sequence in which Booth fights none other than Bruce Lee (Mike Moh) after getting some unhelpful advice from the martial arts legend...
The First Toy Story 4 Trailer Asks Life’s Deepest Questions
Cinema has bridged cultural gaps and given a voice to generations. It has touched the depths of our fears and the limits of our imagination. It can challenge, empower, and change minds. With all that movies have given us, I am prepared to make this bold statement without reservation. There will never be a film that asks deeper questions than the Toy Story series.
Don’t @ me.
Toy Story 4 promises to be another heart-wrenching story of love and loss...
Captain Marvel VFX Reel Highlights Crazy Cat & Skrull Transformations
If there was one defining theme to Captain Marvel‘s visual effects, it was transformation. Many of the characters (spoiler alert)—including Goose the cat—are not what they appear. That’s most evident in the film’s would-be bad guys, the Skrulls. Their main ability is to transform themselves into any person (or object, apparently) they see. This could be an old lady on a train, a surfer, or Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson.
As for Goose,...
Avengers: Infinity War Co-Writer Says it Almost Didn’t End That Way
Cliffhangers are losing their power on TV shows. Something shocking may happen, but bingeing has allowed us to fly straight to the resolution in the next episode. Movies, however, are picking up that power. One of the most shocking cliffhangers in a film franchise was irrefutably Avengers: Infinity War.
A lot of momentum was building before the Avengers finally faced off with Thanos. A decade of character development and strength in numbers resulted in one of the biggest defeats in movie history...
Marvel has Wisely Kept Avengers: Endgame Details Limited
Quick, what do you know for sure about Avengers: Endgame from the trailers? We broke down the last (and apparently “final”) trailer here. There was some great stuff in there! The new suits, the new haircuts, the new team member (Captain Marvel, obviously)—but not much by way of actual narrative. We speculated on what those new suits might mean. We followed the rest of the internet’s lead in wondering whether Hawkeye’s daughter is,...
It’s a Colossal Scrum in new Godzilla: King of the Monsters Trailer
When the monsters rise, we are completely at their mercy. A new Godzilla: King of the Monsters trailer plays on the beauty and terror of nature.
Any new natural phenomenon we don’t understand can be beautiful until the destructive implications are revealed. A magnificent “light show” is the source of a gorgeous blue glow, but its source is potentially deadly. As a group of scientists look on in wonder, Dr. Vivienne Graham explains the behavior is intended to intimidate...
