New Ant-Man and the Wasp Images Reveal the Ghost, Wasp and Giant-Man
We’re looking forward to Ant-Man and the Wasp in major way. After the bitter shot that was Avengers: Infinity War, Peyton Reed’s film is the chaser we all need. The first Marvel movie since Thanos snapped his fingers and re-ordered the MCU, Ant-Man and the Wasp promises to be a lighter, more effervescent affair. This doesn’t mean it won’t have stakes, and it also looks like it’ll be the third Marvel film in a row with a great villain. ...
The Powerful The Hate U Give Trailer Reveals First Look at YA Adaptation
The Hate U Give is not your average teen movie. While on the surface it seems like the story of Starr Carter (Amandla Stenberg) is relatively straight forward high school movie, the film is a whole lot deeper than that. Starr is a fun-loving high school girl who lives something of a double life. During the week, she attends a prep school where she hangs out with her rich, white friends. During the weekend, she hangs out with her friends from home in the poor,...

We’ve written a lot about the infamous ending to Avengers: Infinity War, but this might be the wildest thing we’ve heard yet. Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witch) was at Ace Comic-Con in Seattle this past weekend and revealed that the cast had no idea about how the film would end until the day of filming.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Introduces the Most Sinister Dinosaur Yet
I am fascinated by the perpetual currency of Jurassic Park. We know the premise: man creates dinosaur, dinosaur eats man. We are five films deep into this thing, but I have not tired of it yet. One film ends and I leave satisfied thinking we have reached the peak of raptors running amok. Then comes the next and the question must be answered: how can we make this worse? Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom does just that in some surprising ways without jumping the shark...
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’s Production Designer Takes on the Indoraptor
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom boasts more dinosaurs than any previous film in the Jurassic franchise—combined. While prehistoric mayhem set in the present is precisely what Jurassic fans expect, it’s a major challenge for the film crew.

With the action in Fallen Kingdom moving from Isla Nublar to the mainland,...

But before that, Ant-Man and the Wasp will face a female foe this summer in Ghost.
