Behold the new Trailer for the Coen Brothers The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

The mere notion of a six-part Western anthology from the Coen Brothers is music to a film lover’s ears. The fellas who brought you a classic western like True Grit and the cat-and-mouse West Texas thriller No Country for Old Men know their way around an epic. In fact, there’s really not a genre these guys can’t make their own, so expectations are high for their new Netflix six-parter The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.

SCAD Savannah Film Fest: Jitters Writer, Director & Star Otoja Abit

Actor Otoja Abit had an idea for a short. It was a simple idea that concealed a depth of feeling; what if we got to see a young man, moments before his wedding ceremony, question whether or not he was making the right choice. Abit, who has acted on TV (The Defenders, The Night Of), film (Stonewall), and in theater in New York, wanted to take what he’d learned and make something himself.

That Game of Thrones Battle Against the White Walkers is Even Bigger Than We Thought

New Aquaman TV Spot is a Whale of Time

We are officially under two months away from the premiere of James Wan’s Aquaman. As we swim towards the December 21 release, Warner Bros. is releasing a bounty of TV spots for Wan’s ambitious epic.

The Vampires are Coming to America in First What We Do in the Shadows Teasers

What We Do in the Shadows sheds a light, although not sunlight, on a very important cultural divide. Not New Zealand and America, although the new series will take place in the states. The culture shock is more like the Middle Ages and millennials. The vampire series based on Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s 2014 masterpiece is coming to FX and we finally got the first look. Meet the new roommates.

The original mockumentary followed Viago (Waititi),

Halloween Might be Over, But Stranger Things Day is Coming

Halloween 2018 has come and gone. Perhaps you wore something inspired from The Haunting of Hill House, or went in more of a glam direction and channeled your inner Freddie Mercury. The day after Halloween can have a bit of a gloomy cast, what with the post-candy hangover (to say nothing of how the adults are feeling after costume parties). Fear not, costume-lovers, for Netflix is giving you another reason to dress up in less than a week—Stranger Things Day.

Rian Johnson Tweets from the Set of Knives Out

We didn’t even know Rian Johnson’s project Knives Out was in the works until last month. The Agatha Christie inspired film went up for sale during this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. Now, Johnson and the cast are already on set and cameras are rolling.

TV’s Halloween hit of the year is undoubtedly The Haunting of Hill House.

The plot details are predictably slim,

Malek Becomes Mercury Thanks to Bohemian Rhapsody Movement Coach

It took a village to transform Rami Malek from hoodie-clad Mr. Robot hacker introvert into Freddie Mercury, the flamboyant Queen frontman he portrays with astonishing verisimilitude in Bohemian Rhapsody. Hair and makeup designer Jan Sewell. outfitted Malek with prosthetic “buck teeth.” Dialect coach William Conacher re-shaped the actor’s inflections into a smooth British accent. Music supervisor Becky Bentham and production sound mixer John Casali blended master tape Queen recordings with performances from Malek and Mercury impersonator Marc Martel to communicate the singer’s four-octave vocal power on screen.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Cinematographer Sheds a Little Light on the Film

Since we first heard about Quentin Tarantino’s next, and possibly last, film, we’ve been wondering, what exactly is it? Once Upon a Time in Hollywood pulls from the horrible 1969 Manson murders that rocked the LA hills. However, it also features completely fictional characters in presumably starring roles. Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt will play a western actor and stunt performer, respectively, for a show that never existed. How this all fits together is very mysterious,

Dwayne Johnson Reveals Vanessa Kirby in new Hobbs & Shaw Photo

Vanessa Kirby nearly walked away with Mission: Impossible – Fallout. Her character—the White Widow—was delightfully dangerous, and Kirby seemed to revel in the Widow’s unpredictability. Having become a star as Princess Margaret on Netflix’s glorious period piece The Crown, Kirby’s been locking down some big films with some big stars, and while they don’t come much bigger than Tom Cruise, her latest onscreen partner gets as close as anybody possibly could;
