Captain Marvel Writer Joins The Vision and Scarlet Witch Series
Saying goodbye hurts a little less when you know you’ll see them again. That is definitely the case when it comes to Vision and Scarlet Witch. Avengers: Infinity War was a heartbreaker, but the most devastating moments came from the power couple who made big sacrifices to try to save lives across the universe. Luckily, their story will continue on the small screen, whether or not they are resurrected in Endgame.
Exclusive Video: Oscar Short-Listed The Death of Stalin Composer on Scoring Lunacy
When we interviewed composer Christopher Willis about writing the now Oscar short-listed score for Armando Iannucci‘s hilarious, bleakly resonant dark comedy The Death of Stalin, he told us that one of his major influences in the film was the legendary Russian composer Dimitri Shostakovich. “Because he was famous, he had a complicated relationship with Stalin, he was in and out of favor. There were times he thought he’d written a piece that had offended the authorities,
Oscar Watch: How Composer Brian Tyler Spiced Up Crazy Rich Asians Score
Brian Tyler started playing drums at age four, taught himself piano, guitar and cello soon after, toured the world at age fifteen performing a concerto he’d written and paid his way through Harvard by playing in rock bands. More recently, he’s scored more than $1.2 billion worth of global blockbusters including Avengers: Age of Ultron, Fast & Furious, and Iron Man 3. His latest hit,
Storm Troopers Descend in New Star Wars Resistance Trailer
The galaxy is a big place. Not the Milky Way. Whatever far away and long-ago galaxy that hosts the events of Star Wars. Even though we have been catching up on a new generation in the movies, there is a lot more going on than can fit into three feature-length films. Enter Star Wars Resistance that premiered on Disney channel in October and has been picking up lightspeed. The animated series has been on winter break but returns this Sunday following an action-packed new trailer.
Know Before You Go: A Captain Marvel Primer
Captain Marvel may become the saving grace of the universe, but she’s been hidden in the shadows keeping her magnificence to herself. With spectacular trailers and awe-inspiring images of the Kree soldier in action, we are already obsessed with the photon blasting hero. Still, there are a lot of question marks about the character, especially considering she doesn’t remember her own past. Collider has the dish on what to expect and what you should know before heading to the theater.
Oscar Watch: Black Panther Cinematographer Rachel Morrison on how to Make an Intimate Epic
When Oscar-nominated cinematographer Rachel Morrison (the first woman ever nominated in the category for her work on Mudbound) started working on Black Panther, she had an uncanny feeling; this massive, ultimately groundbreaking Marvel mega-film felt much more like the indies she’s worked on in the past. Black Panther marked her second collaboration with writer/director Ryan Coogler (she lensed his breakout first film, Fruitvale Station),
Oscar Watch: Suspiria’s Prosthetic Makeup Artist on Turning Tilda Swinton into an Old Man
The original horror film Suspiria, made by Dario Argento in 1977, was wild and colorful, and the palette of Luca Guadagnino’s version of the story conveys quickly that this is not a remake. The dance company at the center of the story, next to the Berlin Wall, is bleakly lunatic, as are the street scenes of 1970s Berlin outside, where RAF protests hold sway and it is always raining.
HBO’s CEO Hints at the Epic Scope of Game of Thrones Season 8
The battle for the Iron Throne will end this year. As fire and ice meet, we will only have six episodes to resolve the eight-season Game of Thrones epic. We got our first look earlier this week with a few seconds in a new HBO promo. Information about the final season is slowly beginning to leak out, but considering the scope of the series, it is difficult to fathom how all the loose ends will be tied up.
HBO Reveals the Game of Thrones Prequel’s Full Cast & Director
We got our first glimpse at some footage from the 8th and final season of Game of Thrones during the Golden Globes broadcast, but HBO is already looking ahead at their upcoming GoT prequel.
We already knew—and were thrilled—that Naomi Watts would headline the prequel as a “socialite hiding a dark secret.” We also knew that Jane Goldman was the showrunner, and Poldark‘s Josh Whitehouse would have a key role in the series.
Venom and Carnage are On a Collision Course for Sequel
Woody Harrelson’s Cletus Kasady promised in Venom, “There will be carnage.” And so there shall be. The mid-credits scene signaled a sequel to Eddie Brock’s (Tom Hardy) symbiote transformation that has now been officially green-lit.
Venom took a massive bite out of the worldwide box office chomping up $855 million. Unsurprisingly, there is more to come from the alien inhabited investigative reporter. Variety is reporting that the creative team is beginning work on Venom 2 slated for October 2020.
New Captain Marvel Images Tease the MCU’s Most Potent Superhero
Have you checked out the new Captain Marvel special look? If not, give it a quick watch as it pertains to these new images, which tease not only just how powerful Captain Marvel is, but how cosmic her issues are going to be in her big introduction into the MCU. The new video shows us how Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) is being pulled in multiple directions at once. She’s part Kree,
New Captain Marvel Trailer Teases Alien Invasion
Okay, technically this is being called a “special look,” but considering it boasts a good amount of new footage and even a bit more plot information, this new video released by Marvel functions as a trailer just as well. The first half of the video concerns Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) explaining to Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) that Earth is in the midst of an alien invasion by a nasty race of shapeshifters called Skrulls.
The Title of Avengers: Endgame Was Planned Before Infinity War Was Released
The endgame has arrived for the Avengers and the fate of the universe is nearing. Following a nearly insurmountable defeat in Avengers: Infinity War, Marvel President Kevin Feige is one of the few people who know how it will all play out. MTV News stopped the exec on the Golden Globes red carpet last night to ask about the recently released title of the next film.
“It was in place before we started developing the movie.
Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams Sizzle in First Fosse/Verdon Trailer
FX saw big wins at the Golden Globes last night with The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story and The Americans. ACS is an anthology series making Versace a one-time season and The Americans aired its final season in 2018. So, what is the next big thing for the groundbreaking channel? Hopefully, Fosse/Verdon because my inner theater nerd is shaken by the new trailer.
Green Book Leads Highly Competitive 2019 Golden Globes
The Golden Globes nominations were so packed with incredible storytelling this year that it was difficult to make predictions going into the big night. If you were torn among several categories on your ballot, that’s with the good reason. The awards show proved that on screens both large and small, it was anyone’s game. Award shows can get a little repetitive when a single title is making a sweep, but that was not the case this year.
HBO Reveals First Footage From Game of Thrones Final Season
What better time for HBO to drop the first official footage from Game of Thrones 8th and final season than during the Golden Globes? With a TV and film-loving audience planted on their couches as a captive audience, it’s a great opportunity for studios and networks to tease their upcoming projects (as Marvel did for Captain Marvel). Not only was HBO teasing the GoT, but we also got a peek at the first footage from Damon Lindelof’s Watchmen series.
How Ruth Ginsberg’s Nephew Wrote On the Basis of Sex
Before he experienced the memorial service epiphany that led to On the Basis of Sex, writer Daniel Stiepleman had knocked around for a few years, working in the Peace Corps, teaching high school English and producing TV commercials in Wisconsin. Then, he attended the 2010 funeral of his uncle Martin, the late husband of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. “Martin’s friend gave a eulogy and mentioned in passing that discrimination on the basis of sex was the only case Ruth and Marty ever argued together,”
Stan & Ollie Director Revisits a Great Doubles Act
When he was a kid growing up in Scotland, filmmaker Jon. S. Baird loved Laurel and Hardy movies so much that he impersonated Stan Laurel at his school’s “fancy dress” day alongside a classmate dressed in an Oliver Hardy outfit. Three decades later, Baird pays homage to the great song-and-dance comedy team as director of Stan & Ollie. In the movie, opening wide January 11, Steve Coogan plays the duo’s rake-thin mastermind with Golden Globe-nominated John C.
Oscar Watch: Black Panther‘s Co-Editor on the Key Scene She Influenced
A rich African inspired heritage and fierce women warriors proved this year that fresh perspectives are long overdue on screen. Black Panther came out swinging and took a major swipe at barriers to cinematic representation. The immensely talented team dreamed up a world that was not only thrilling and gorgeous but also put new faces at the forefront of the superhero genre. Not only were there more black actors on screen than any other Marvel film,
Ruby Rose’s Batwoman Role Will Be Expanded in Spinoff Pilot Episode
Kate Kane was one of the most buzzed about TV characters of last year, even though she only had a few minutes of screen time and appeared on a series other than her own. Ruby Rose was announced in the role to much fanfare back in August, but the news was just that she would appear in the Arrow-verse crossover event “Elseworlds.” Unsurprisingly, Rose made a magnificent debut as Kane and Batwoman has officially snagged a standalone series.
