A New “Knock at the Cabin” Video Takes You Inside M. Night Shyamalan’s Latest Thriller
When you’re watching an M. Night Shyamalan movie, even the most common sounds are terrifying. And nothing, it turns out, is scarier than the sound of a knock at the door, especially when you’re renting a cabin in the woods for a weekend and not expecting any company. What’s even worse is when the person doing the knocking is Dave Bautista’s Leonard.
In a new behind-the-scenes look at Shyamalan’s latest released by Universal Pictures,

Sundance 2023: Jonathan Majors’ Astonishing Transformation for “Magazine Dreams”
Jonathan Majors is turning heads and earning major buzz for his astonishing transformation in Magazine Dreams. Granted, Majors’ star has been rising for a while now, and the man was already in extremely good shape, but what he did to prepare for the role of amateur bodybuilder Killian Maddox is astonishing.
Majors revealed at the Variety Studio at the Sundance Film Festival that his training regimen to transform his already ripped physique into a bodybuilder’s hulking frame included eating more than 6,000 calories a day and working out three times daily.
Writer/Director Elegance Bratton on His Breakout Film “The Inspection”
Writer/director Elegance Bratton’s autobiographical The Inspection is one of the year’s breakout films. Bratton stuck with the project for years because it most reflected who he is: a gay Black man who was homeless as a teenager, a Marine Corps veteran, and a Columbia University and NYU-educated filmmaker.
Bratton’s struggles began practically at birth with that unusual, magnificent name. “My mother named me Elegance but had a problem with me being gay,” Bratton said over the phone from his home in Baltimore.

“Scream VI” Trailer Finds Hayden Panettiere Back Fighting Ghostface in NYC
New Yorkers are legendarily tough, so it’ll be interesting to see how they handle Ghostface, that notorious killer (and his many copycats) who usually do their slashing in Woodsboro, California.

“Babylon” Composer Justin Hurwitz Deconstructs His Oscar-Shortlisted Score
“I’m very obsessive, and I can only do one thing at a time, so when Damien has a movie to work on, I go all in.” That’s composer Justin Hurwitz talking about his ongoing collaboration with filmmaker Damien Chazelle, and clearly, the laser vision has paid off. Hurwitz started working on his Oscar short-listed score for Babylon back in 2019, a few years after winning two Academy Awards for the Chazelle-directed La La Land.
New “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania” Teaser Shows Scott Lang Outmatched by Kang
The new teaser for Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania opens with a little light parenting. Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) is telling his daughter, Cassie (Kathryn Newton), to breathe. Cassie’s understandably a little panicked as she finds herself, along with dad Scott, his girlfriend Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly), Hope’s mom Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer), and Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) are no longer on Earth. Well, not the Earth that they know.
How Matt Reeves’ “BatVerse” Might Coexist Within the New DC Universe
Writer/director Matt Reeves’ The Batman was a thing of dark beauty. A street-level, neo-noir detective story that started with a supervillain’s brutal crime and swept us right into the world of Batman (Robert Pattinson) as he learns the tricks of a trade he’d invented in the second year of his vigilantism. There had never been a Batman movie quite like it, and the Gotham that Reeves and his stellar cast and crew created resonated with fans and critics alike.
“Sharper” Trailer Reveals Apple TV’s Julianne Moore-led Neo-Noir Thriller
The first trailer for Sharper is here, revealing director Benjamin Caron (Andor, The Crown)’s neo-noir thriller, and we’re getting some delicious vibes. Sometimes there’s nothing more satisfying than a good heist film, one that pits ambitious grifters and mysterious shape-shifters against the ruthless rich. And in the case of Sharper, these archetypes are embodied by some terrific performers.
Meet Richard Hobbes (John Lithgow), a Manhattan-based billionaire with money to burn and games to play.
Opposites Attract in “Your Place Or Mine” Trailer With Reese Witherspoon & Ashton Kutcher
A romantic comedy starring Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher sounds like precisely the kind of thing the world could use this coming Valentine’s Day. And while Your Place or Mine opens a skooch before Valentine’s, the film will still function perfectly as something sweet to kickstart the most romantic (and corporately created) holiday of the year.
The premise of Your Place or Mine is simple and efficient; Witherspoon’s Debbie and Kutcher’s Peter have been best friends for 20 years.
Matt Reeves Suggests “The Batman” Sequel is Alive & Well
We’ll take any hint that writer/director Matt Reeves’ The Batman sequel is happening, and luckily, we’ve got one.
In a conversation with Collider, Reeves all but confirmed that he is, indeed, working on the sequel, as we had assumed way back in April of last year when Warner Bros. announced the sequel had been greenlit. And why wouldn’t there be a sequel, we thought at the time?
