“No Time To Die” Makes its Star-Studded World Premiere in London
The early reactions to No Time To Die are in, and it sounds like Daniel Craig’s final turn as James Bond is as thrillingly satisfying as we could have hoped. Before we get to those, though, we wanted to share some of the images from the world premiere last night, at the Royal Albert Hall in London. All the film’s stars were there, as were many of the filmmakers responsible for making the movie happen,
“Venom: Let There Be Carnage” Early Reactions Delight in Film’s Insanity
The first reactions from critics who have seen Venom: Let There Be Carnage are spreading like an alien symbiote across the internet. The good news for fans of the 2018 original? Let There Be Carnage is even more bonkers. Director Andy Serkis has picked up where the original left off and leaned into the lunacy, and the early takes are that the film, and Tom Hardy especially, are reveling in the madness.
“The Harder They Fall” Trailer Reveals First Look at Star-Studded Western
The first trailer for writer/director Jeymes Samuel’s The Harder They Fall has arrived, revealing a star-studded Western that pits two rival crews facing off in an epic High Noon-level showdown. The action in The Harder They Fall is set into motion when Rufus Buck (Idris Elba) is sprung from prison. This doesn’t sit well with Nat Love (Jonathan Majors), who has a long-standing grudge against Rufus that he wears on his face every day in the form of a cross dug into his forehead with a knife.
“Don’t Look Up” Images Reveal Leonardo DiCaprio, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence & More in Adam McKay’s Next Film
If the end of the world is nigh, there are few better filmmakers to spend your final hours with than writer/director Adam McKay. The man whose The Big Short unpuzzled the puzzling, devastating schemes that led to the 2008 financial crisis and whose Veep gave us a front-row seat to the rise-and-retire-in-wealth-despite-starting-an-unjust-war career of Dick Cheney has now set his sights on the cosmos. Don’t Look Up takes aim at our unwillingness,
New “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” Clip Reveals New Villain Shriek
Talk about a noise violation.
While the human host/alien symbiote combatants of Eddie Brock/Venom (Tom Hardy) and Cletus Kasady/Carnage (Woody Harrelson) are the main event in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, they’re not the only heavies in town. A new clip from director Andy Serkis’s upcoming sequel reveals Naomie Harris’s Frances Barrison, who also goes by Shriek. True to her name, Shriek’s weapon is sound. She’s able to suck all the sound out of a given space and weaponize it.
New “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” Clip Unleashes the Beast
A new Venom: Let There Be Carnage clip reveals the moment Woody Harrelson’s deranged Cletus Kasady becomes Carnage. It’s a nifty, nasty little scene, revealing that Kasady was moments from being put to death in prison via lethal injection when, instead, he was given a new lease on life. Granted, he’s sharing that new lease on life an alien symbiote Carnage and, well, all hell breaks loose the moment he transforms.
We’re now but a few days away from Venom: Let There Be Carnage‘s premiere date,
“The Witcher” Season 2 Trailer Reveals Geralt’s Monstrous Mission
The trailer for The Witcher season 2 is here, and it’s absolutely bursting with monsters. Granted, a lot of the monsters are men, but still—Geralt (Henry Cavill) will have his work cut out for him this season and then some if he’s going to fulfill his destiny. Season one explored the brutal journies of three characters, Geralt, Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), and Princess Cirilla (Freya Allan). These three were on a collision course towards each other,
“The Last Of Us” Reveals First Look at HBO’s Ambitious New Series
The talk about HBO’s upcoming series The Last Of Us, starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey as two survivors of a plague, is that the premium cable network has poured immense resources into the series. The show, based on a popular PlayStation game of the same name, is said to be the most expensive, expansive, sprawling thing that network has attempted since it was herding dragons in Westeros in Game of Thrones.
“Stranger Things” Season 4 Trailer Welcomes You To the Creel House
It’s not like the Duffer Brothers’ Stranger Things hasn’t been one of television’s most meticulously created series over the last few years, but executive producer and director Shawn Levy told Collider their efforts on season 4 were “by far the most ambitious of the seasons.” That’s exciting. Now we’ve got our first good glimpse at season 4 courtesy of a new trailer, introducing us to the Creel House. The Creels,
“Super Mario Bros.” Animated Film Will Star Chris Pratt as Mario & Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach

The announcement was made during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct, with Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto giving an update on the long-gestating film. Mario will be created by animation studio Illumination, the same folks who brought you Despicable Me, The Secret Life of Pets, and Sing.
There’s a whole slew of talented performers joining Pratt in the voice cast—Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach,
Ticket Pre-Sales For “No Time To Die” Appear Biggest Since “Avengers: Endgame” in U.K.
It should come as no surprise that the love for James Bond in the U.K. is deep. Yet after a year and a half of the pandemic, it’s a happy jolt to hear that the pre-ticket sales for the 25th installment in the Bond franchise, No Time To Die, appear to be massive. Advance tickets for Daniel Craig’s final mission as James Bond went on sale in the U.K. on September 13, and The Hollywood Reporter notes that cinema owners have reported “a nearly unprecedented level of demand.”
“Tiger King 2” is Coming to Netflix This Year
Netflix has made it official—Tiger King 2 is happening—with the promise of “more madness and mayhem.” The breakout documentary from 2020 is not only getting a sequel, but that sequel is coming this year.
The news was broke via a teaser announcing Netflix’s upcoming slate of true crime content. There have been whispers about the sequel for a while now, and last month Tiger King 2 was listed on Netflix’s site,
Cinematographer Kira Kelly on The Dark & Desperate World of “Y: The Last Man”
Y: The Last Man kicked off the fall TV season with a dramatic debut. Based on the DC Comics series, the show chronicles families in mourning, supply chains upended, and a democracy dominated by men dismantled when every person born with a Y chromosome suddenly dies. It’s a shocking and abrupt event that leaves a mystery behind when Yorick Brown (Ben Schnetzer) realizes he is the only one left of his kind.
Meet “The Many Saints of Newark” Cast in This Long-Awaited “Sopranos” Prequel
It’s not hyperbole to suggest that David Chase’s mesmerizing HBO juggernaut The Sopranos is one of the best shows in television history, and the late James Gandolfini’s turn as Tony Soprano one of the best performances in TV history, too. So it’s not surprising, then, after creating something so mesmerizing and influential that Chase promised himself and others he was “never” going to make a Sopranos movie. Yet, nothing if not aware of the importance of leaving himself an out,
“Britney vs Spears” Trailer Reveals Netflix’s Hotly Anticipated Doc
The trailer for Britney vs Spears is here, a day after Netflix revealed the existence of the long-rumored documentary from director Erin Lee Carr. The trailer reveals our first look at Carr’s film, which is focused, as the title suggests, on Britney Spears’ long battle to regain control of her life and her finances from the incredibly unusual conservatorship she’s been living under for the past 13-years.
The doc comes a few weeks after Spears’
Get Ready For More Nebula in Upcoming Marvel Movies
Karen Gillan’s portrayal of Nebula, the blue-tinted cyborg has always been interesting, but now it seems her time has really come. Nebula is arguably one of the most tortured (literally) of all MCU characters, and her character arc has been expansive considering she’s been really bad and, as of late, really good. As Gamora (Zoe Saldana)’s sister and the less-favored daughter of Thanos, Nebula was literally tortured into being. She wasn’t always a cyborg—she was made one by Thanos,
Emmy Winner Jessica Hobbs on Why Directing “The Crown” is a Royal Treat
The 73rd Emmys shined bright over the weekend with a number of fresh faces taking home a statue, including Michaela Coel accepting the Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Limited or Anthology Series in a rousing speech for I May Destroy You. It was the first time a woman of color won the award.
The Crown director Jessica Hobbs was also among the newly enshrined during the live broadcast,
Netflix Reveals Teaser for Secret Britney Spears Doc
It has long been whispered that Netflix was working on a Britney Spears doc—yesterday, the streaming giant revealed the first teaser for Britney vs Spears, letting the world know the doc is very real. The full trailer, in fact, will be released today.
The 18-second teaser is a voicemail that Spears left to a lawyer at 12:29 a.m. on January 21, 2009. Although it might sound like a minor piece of the puzzle,
“The Tragedy of Macbeth” Teaser Reveals Denzel Washington as Shakespeare’s Murderous Scotsman
It’s hard to overstate just how awesome this movie looks. The teaser for writer/director Joel Coen’s The Tragedy of Macbeth reveals a sumptuous black-and-white palette and none other than Denzel Washington playing one of Shakespeare’s most legendary creations, the ambitious Scottish general who plots the murder of King Duncan (with a little help from some prophesizing witches and a very cunning Lady Macbeth) in order to take the throne for himself. “Macbeth” might be one of the most alluring Shakespeare’s plays for filmmakers due to its relatively straightforward narrative dealing with political ambition and the psychological breakdown that awaits those who seek power for its own sake and at all costs.
Justin Lin Says “Fast & Furious” Saga Will End With One Chapter in Two Movies
It will be a very fitting coda for the Fast franchise that the most seasoned director in this pedal-to-the-metal universe, Justin Lin, will be seeing it through the finish line. Speaking with Collider, Lin said that right now, he thinks the franchise should end with one massive chapter told in two final films. That would likely mean shooting Fast 10 and 11 back-to-back, a massive undertaking and logistical challenge considering how long the cast and crew need to be available (this was the method used by Marvel for Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame).
