The Mysterious Big Lebowski Project is Revealed

If you cannot withstand certain disappointment right now, click on. The truth about that Big Lebowski tease has been revealed. While still entertaining and clever, the real reason for The Dude’s return was far less dramatic than we had fantasized.

Late last week, Jeff Bridges tweeted out 15-second footage of The Dude 20 years on. The tease was totally enticing, but it was just that. A tease. We were suspicious that the clip pointed to the date of the Super Bowl,

Toy Story 4‘s Bo Peep & Synopsis Revealed

Toy Story 4 has introduced us to a whole new Bo. Pixar revealed a new poster for not-so-little Bo Peep, as well as a new synopsis for the film. You’ll notice that Bo has ditched the bonnet and the hoop dress in favor of a pair of sensible pants, a cape, and her trusty staff. Also, a pink bow, because one wants a little color.

Toy Story 4 reunites us with Woody and the gang,

How Aquaman‘s Colorist Battled Mera’s Red Hair—and Won

Aquaman made history over the weekend, becoming the highest-grossing film in DC Comics history. Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa)’s journey from high-seas crusader to King of Atlantis surpassed Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises, the final film in his Batman trilogy.

FotoKem colorist Mark Griffith was one of the many, many people who had a huge-but-invisible role in Aquaman’s success. The colorist’s job is to tweak,

Spider-Man: Far From Home Will Feature the MCU’s First Trans Actor

Our world may not look much like the MCU, but the MCU is about to look a little bit more like our world. The franchise has yet to represent LGBTQ themes on screen, but Variety reported that actor Zach Barack is set to appear in Spider-Man: Far from Home. When Barack makes his MCU debut, he will make history as the first out trans actor to appear in a major superhero film.

Birds of Prey Teaser Reveals Harley Quinn’s new Friends

Get a sneak peek at Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie)’s newest friends in this Birds of Prey teaser, which is short but sweet. The new teaser follows this photo that Robbie dropped, showing off her trademark heart tattoo and red lip as everyone’s favorite antihero. Does the photo hint at a more restrained Quinn—at least in terms of her eye shadow? It’s one theory, but we’re guessing by the time Birds of Prey drops, 

The Black Panther Cast Talk About the Sequel

Black Panther‘s cast came up big at last night’s SAG Awards. The ensemble took home the top prize for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, and after the show, they had plenty to say about their writer/director Ryan Coogler and the upcoming sequel.

“Sequels, I think, are one of the hardest films to make,” Michael B. Jordan said (no stranger to sequels himself, with Creed 2 dropping late last year). 

Margot Robbie Drops First Photo From Set of Birds of Prey

There has been some really exciting news coming out of Margot Robbie’s female-driven DCEU project, Birds of Prey. There are some supremely talented women who will be driving this production from director Cathy Yan and screenwriter Christina Hodson to a cast that includes Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jurnee Smollett-Bell, and Rosie Perez. We love what we’ve been hearing, but finally, we get to see something from the film too.

Aquaman Tops The Dark Knight Rises and Makes History

It’s official—James Wan’s Aquaman has surpassed Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises as the highest-grossing DC Comics film in history. Wan’s hugely ambitious epic was made that much more difficult for being largely set underwater, yet his team (like cinematographer Don Burgess) rose to the challenge. The result was a swashbuckling epic that swept over audiences both here and abroad, amassing a box office haul that would be any pirates’

How I Am the Night‘s Creator Built Noir Series Around a Nearly Mythic True Crime

True crime fans have long obsessed over the “Black Dahlia” murder that first made headlines in 1947 when 22-year old aspiring actress Elizabeth Short turned up mutilated on the streets of Los Angeles. Mystery writer James Ellroy (L.A. Confidential) authored a book about the case after his own mother was murdered in a similar fashion. A 2006 Black Dahlia movie further chronicled the mystery surrounding wealthy doctor George Hodel,

Lena Headey is Rooting for Cersei in Game of Thrones

Cersei has a real shot at ending up on the Iron Throne, but it would probably be the least popular ending to Game of Thrones. She’s been ruthless, manipulative, and outright evil through the first seven seasons. Her wickedness knows no limits. Even her own family isn’t safe. When actress Lena Headey stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live, the host tried to pry clues about whether Cersei would finally have her way.

Who Will Matt Smith Play in Morbius?

Morbius, the villain with vampire tendencies, is soon to be lonely no more. Seven months after Jared Leto inked a deal to fill the role, Variety is reporting a new actor soon to join the film. The eleventh Doctor Who and The Crown star, Matt Smith, is expected to sign on to the MCU spinoff.

Debuting in 1971, Morbius has one of the most tragic descents into the dark side.

New Hobbs And Shaw Image Shows Dwayne Johnson in Beast Mode

Okay, it’s not like Dwayne Johnson hasn’t been ripped for forever, but does this new image from director David Leitch’s upcoming Hobbs and Shaw reveals Johnson at his most jacked? The Fast & Furious spinoff from Universal Pictures, which is currently titled Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, offers you a bunch of reasons to get excited. The first and most obvious are that Johnson and Jason Statham stole every scene they were in together in the previous Fast and Furious installments,

How A Dog’s Way Home‘s Director Found his Path

Remember Terry the Toad, the adorable nerdy high school kid who had a wild night in American Graffiti? And the government researcher out in the remote, bonding with the wolves out in the Arctic in Never Cry Wolf? Both were played by Charles Martin Smith, now a director who has specialized in films about kids and animals including the two Dolphin Tale movies and the current release,

Serenity Writer/Director Steven Knight on Creating a Twist no one Will See Coming

Writer-director Steven Knight is no stranger to making unconventional films. In the 2013 thriller Locke starring Tom Hardy, the entire plot takes place inside a car. For Serenity, underneath the allegory about a fisherman obsessed over catching an elusive bluefin tuna, lie deeper existential themes.

Knight admits directing can be daunting in a phone call having wrapped Peaky Blinders Season 5. “Every time I do,

Jeff Bridges Reappears as His Big Lebowski Character

SPOTTED: 20 years after he bowled his way into our heart, recent footage of The Dude has surfaced. Everyone’s favorite stoner mistaken for a millionaire shuffled onto Twitter today looking like he never changed a hair. Could this be his triumphant return?

Jeff Bridges shared the 15-second clip in which he appears as his famous lead role from The Big Lebowski. In his signature pajama pants, cardigan and jellies,

Billy Batson Won’t Get Any Special Treatment from His Enemies in Shazam!

As kids, we all dreamed of growing up and being big enough to take down all of our problems and conquer all of our fears. In reality, it turns out that life is just a constant barrage of frustrations, disappointments, and humiliations that none of us are equipped to combat. Which is why we need fun movies! Shazam! (Zachary Levi) is primed to be the most cheerful comic book movie of modern times,

How The Favourite‘s Oscar-Nominated Co-Writer Tony McNamara Twisted History

With 10 Oscar-nominations, Yorgos Lanthimos’s The Favourite was matched only by Alfonso Cuaron’s elegiac masterpiece Roma for the largest haul of the year. The films couldn’t be much more different, but then again, every film Lanthimos makes couldn’t be much more different from his peers. The Favourite is nothing like anything the Oscar-nominated Lanthimos has made in the past, either, concerning itself with two rivals, Lady Sarah (Oscar-nominated Rachel Weisz) and Abigail (Oscar-nominated Emma Stone) for the affection and patronage of Queen Anne (Oscar-nominated Olivia Colman) in 18th century England.

Aquaman‘s DP on the Challenge of People Talking & Fighting Underwater

Of all the superheroes (and there are a lot of superheroes if you haven’t noticed), cinematographer Don Burgess was challenged to lens the one with the most problematic superpowers and origin story. Unlike Batman’s gritty Gotham, Superman’s soaring Metropolis or even Black Panther’s glorious Wakanda, there is no superhero who presents a tougher challenge to a filmmaker than Aquaman and his underwater kingdom of Atlantis.

Life’s a Party for Matthew McConaughey in The Beach Bum Trailer

Surf’s up, dude! Or…down? All of life’s pertinent questions will hopefully be answered in The Beach Bum, a sun-kissed, drug-filled comedy from the writer and director of Spring Breakers, Harmony Korine. In The Beach Bum, McConaughey plays Moondog, “a rebellious rogue who always lives life by his own rules.” Not convinced yet? Check out the trailer below:

Alright, alright, alright! Another Oscar nomination for McConaughey,

The Final Episodes of Game of Thrones Will be Movie-Like

We’ve known for quite a while now that the final six episodes of Game of Thrones would be longer than average. We’ve known that because the shortened season involves the largest battle the show has ever filmed, and there’s no way they’d try to cram that into six normal-sized episodes. You don’t spend 55-days shooting likely the largest battle ever produced for television and then not use your considerable clout to get HBO to agree to longer-than-normal episodes.
