“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).
New “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” Teaser Highlights Worst Roommate in the World
A new Venom: Let There Be Carnage teaser pokes fun at the expense of everyone’s favorite alien symbiote and his human host, Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy). The spot is like a far messier and more dangerous version of those old videos of Thor (Chris Hemsworth) moving to Australia and rooming with a guy named Darryl. Our current roommate situation is between the San Francisco 49ers star tight end George Kittle and Eddie Brock,
The Future of Immersive VFX Arrives With Dark Bay at Studio Babelsberg
The future of visual effects may be moving from post-production and right onto the set. At Studio Babelsberg in Potsdam, Germany, a new stage recently started helping filmmakers make the switch. The 109-year-old studio complex’s new Dark Bay Visual Production Studio is an LED-enabled stage that allows VFX to become part of production while shooting is still underway. And details are mostly under wraps at this point, but the first production to make its home in the new studio is Netflix’s 1899,
The Final Trailer for “Halloween Kills” is a Grisly Thrill Ride
Yikes. The final trailer for Halloween Kills is practically NSFW. Universal has unveiled (practically unmasked) this riveting, bloody romp less than a month before the film’s appropriately Halloween-timed release, and it’s truly a doozy. David Gordon Green’s follow-up to his sensational 2018 Halloween sequel of John Carpenter’s iconic 1978 original looks even nastier, bloodier, and scarier. Michael Myers, specifically, seems even more hellbent (if that’s even possible) to obliterate everyone standing between him and Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis).
First “Finch” Trailer Reveals Tom Hanks & His Two Best Friends in Apple’s Original Sci-Fi Film
If you’re going to maroon any actor in a bleak future with no co-stars to play off save an android and a dog, you are not going to do better than Tom Hanks. Now Apple TV has revealed the first trailer for Finch, the upcoming sci-fi film from Game of Thrones director Miguel Sapochnik, based on an original script from Craig Luck and Ivor Powell. Hanks plays the titular Finch, a survivor of a catastrophic “solar event”
Listen to an Epic Snippet of “The Batman” Score
Batman Day has brought us some fresh new insights into writer/director Matt Reeves’s upcoming The Batman. The first was a photo that Reeves’ revealed via Twitter, showing off Robert Pattinson in full cape and cowl. The second is a treat for the ears—composer Michael Giacchino has given us a 28-second clip of the score, which immediately plunges us into the brooding headspace one wants when imagining the world of the broodiest superhero of them all.
Emmys 2021: “The Crown,” “Ted Lasso” & More Win Big
All hail The Crown. Netflix’s royal drama was bestowed with seven awards last night during the 73rd Primetime Emmys, the most for any show, and Netflix itself tied the record for most Emmy wins with a haul of 44. The last time that happened? In 1974, when CBS took home 44 Emmys in a single year.
Yet that wasn’t the only milestone reached during last night’s telecast. Apple TV’s Ted Lasso claimed four awards,
New “The Matrix Resurrections” & “Dune” Footage Revealed During Emmys
If you want to tease the fact that your premium streaming service has two of the biggest movies of the year coming soon, doing so during the Emmys Telecast is the way to go. Such was the case last night when HBO Max revealed a new trailer teasing their upcoming shows and films.
The new trailer highlights returning series like Insecure, Succession, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. It teases new series like The Sex Lives of College Girls,
New “The Batman” Photo Teases Upcoming Trailer
Care for a little glimpse of The Batman to start your week? While we will be getting a proper The Batman trailer on October 16 when the second DC FanDome event arrives, writer/director Matt Reeves has seen fit to offer us a little appetizer. Reeves popped his head up from the editing bay where he’s well into post-production on the film to say hi, share a photo, and wish all of us a happy Batman Day.
“Succession” Season 3 Trailer Reveals the Roy Family’s Coming Chaos
“I dropped a bomb, the whole world is watching for my next move,” says Kendall Roy (Jeremy Strong) at the top of the official trailer for Succession‘s long-awaited third season. Kendall is referring to the fact that at the end of season two, he told the entire world that the company his father built, Waystar Royco, is a seething den of corruption because of his old man’s criminality and ineptitude.
“The Humans” Trailer Reveals Stephen Karam’s Mysterious Family Drama
Playwright Stephen Karam’s The Humans has made the leap from Broadway to the big screen, with Karam himself adapting and directing his material. And what material it is—The Humans was a finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize (it won the Tony Award for Best Play that same year), and now A24 has revealed the first trailer for Karam’s film version. Folks, this looks like a must-see film.
The Humans is centered on the Blake family,
First “Nightmare Alley” Trailer Reveals Bradley Cooper & Cate Blanchett in Guillermo del Toro’s Horror
One of our most reliably inventive filmmakers, Guillermo del Toro, has assembled an insanely talented cast for his latest film, Nightmare Alley, and at long last, we have our first look. Searchlight Pictures has revealed the first teaser trailer for the film, which stars Bradley Cooper and Cate Blanchett as a pair of mischievous souls who seem well on the path to that titular nightmare. Cooper plays Stan Carlisle, a gifted carny who can manipulate people with nothing more than a few perfectly chosen words.
