Margot Robbie’s Birds of Prey Will Take Flight in 2020

We have been chirping about this awesome news since May and are ecstatic that Birds of Prey has an official release date. The all-girl DC comics movie starring Margot Robbie, reprising her role as that lovable lunatic Harley Quinn, has been gaining momentum for now, and now The Wrap has reported that Birds of Prey is on the slate for February 2020.

Beverly Plays Matchmaker with Freddy Krueger in The Goldbergs Promo

Halloween is set to revive Michael Myers’ killer career in just a few short weeks, which could inspire some of our other favorite boogeymen to crawl out of the shadows. Could Freddy Krueger be the next villain to haunt our dreams? Yes and no. If you want to head back to Elm Street, you’ll still have to settle for queuing up your DVD copy. However, if you want to see Robert Englund back in the knife gloves,

BlacKkKlansman Costume Designer Marci Rodgers on Dressing the Year’s Most Urgent Film

Costume designer Marci Rodgers was out of the country working on a movie when she got a call from Spike Lee. Rodgers and Lee worked together on his Netflix series (and adaptation from his feature film) She’s Gotta Have It, yet he was calling about a new project, a feature film based on an incredible true story about a black cop in Colorado Springs infiltrating a local chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1970s.

John Cena and an Army of Transformers Hunt Bumblebee in New Trailer

Charlie (Hailee Steinfield) has no idea just how special her first car will be. I mean, Volkswagen is discontinuing the Beetle in 2019. That car is going to be a classic someday. Oh, and the particular vehicle she obtains is also a shapeshifting autobot in hiding. A new Bumblebee trailer highlights the intimate nature of the Transformers origin story and the epic odds our heroes are up against.

Todd Phillips Shares First Look at Zazie Beetz in Joker

This past Friday we shared the first look at Joaquin Phoenix in clown paint in Todd Phillips upcoming Joker. Needless to say, there is immense interest in Phoenix’s turn as Gotham’s Clown Prince of Chaos, and our first look at him leaves us feeling giddy with excitement. Phoenix looks appropriately unhinged, yet both his face paint and his demeanor look like a fresh approach to the most iconic villain of all time,

White Boy Rick Director Yann Demange on Capturing Detroit’s Decline With Fresh Eyes

Detroit, the most American of cities, home of Ford and Motown, had by 1984 been, in many ways, been abandoned by America. It took an outsider, Paris-born, London raised director Yann Demange, to see this American story with fresh eyes and bring it to the screen in White Boy Rick.

“I didn’t know the history of Detroit. I had just moved to America. I was blown away as I read about the history of the most prosperous city;

Joaquin Phoenix Cracks a Smile in Joker Makeup

Earlier this week we were introduced to Arthur Fleck. He looks mild-mannered and slightly disheveled with his hair being the wildest thing about him. It was difficult to imagine that this humble looking man harbors a monster inside. Arthur will, of course, transform into the Joker for the Joaquin helmed character study. Now, director Todd Phillips has revealed the first look at Arthur in full makeup and the short video gives us a few clues.

Eddie Brock Probes Dr. Drake About the Life Foundation’s Ethics in First Venom Clip

As we wrote earlier today, IGN went on the set of Venom to find out the answers to some of our most burning questions. How did the VFX team transform Tom Hardy into the tentacled creature? How do the symbiotes get to our planet? And possibly most interestingly, what is the deal with the Life Foundation? Turns out, the saintly scientists aren’t what they seem. They are the culprits behind harvesting alien life forms and are covering up some more sinister activities.

Venom Has a New Explanation for How the Symbiotes Come to Earth

When the first trailer for Venom landed, we were curious about the way in which Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) would come into contact with the symbiote that transforms him into a superhuman. Peter Parker was the main culprit for bringing the alien lifeform to Earth, but Spider-Man is absent from this iteration. IGN went straight to the source to ask VFX supervisor Paul Franklin what is up with the intergalactic goo.

How The House With a Clock in Its Walls was Actually Built

Horror master Eli Roth, known for directing The Hostel and Cabin Fever series, trades gore for wonder in his newest work, a PG adaptation of John Bellairs’ 1973 YA novel, The House With a Clock in Its Walls. Starring Jack Black as Uncle Jonathan, a self-proclaimed warlock, and Cate Blanchett as his sharp, competent witch neighbor, Florence Zimmerman, the plot of House and the fate of its young protagonist,

Chris Hemsworth Shares First Men in Black Set Photo With Tessa Thompson

The Men in Black reboot has all the ingredients you could possibly want. It’s got a great director in Straight Outta Compton‘s F. Gary Gray, it’s got a script from two very good scribes in Iron Man‘s Matt Halloway and Art Marcum, and it’s got two leads with charisma to spare—Tessa Thompson and Chris Hemsworth. These two made such sizzling onscreen partners in Thor: Ragnarok that fans were just hoping to see them paired up again in a future Thor installment,

Jordan Peele Crosses Over Into The Twilight Zone

If it feels as though you may have been transported to another dimension, it’s possible that you have. Jordan Peele has once more unlocked the door to the Twilight Zone and any number of strange and wonderful things are soon to unfold. As one of the strongest contemporary writers working right now, Peele has taken the mantle of one of the best written shows in TV history. Ever since CBS announced Peele’s involvement in the revival of the sci-fi series,

Watch the VFX Magic Behind the Battle Between T’Challa and Killmonger in Black Panther

A new VFX reel reveals the way in which human performance and technology intersect in Black Panther. Isn’t that really what Wakanda is all about? Shuri (Letitia Wright) designed the amazing vibranium powered suits to be responsive to the wearer’s every need. Turns out that’s what the VFX artists are doing in real life. DNEG peels back the digital curtain on the incredible work they did in that climactic fight scene between T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) and Killmonger (Michael B.

New Ralph Breaks the Internet Trailer Reveals Ralph and Vanellope’s Mission

I am almost to the point where I need to admit that Ralph Breaks the Internet may be too much for me. There have been two previous trailers released and I have fallen into uncontrollable laughter to the point that I am gasping for breath. In the teaser, there was that hilariously morbid game of overfeeding the cute animals who eventually pop. Then there was the perfect personification of the annoying search engine autofill.

Cary Fukunaga is Your Bond 25 Director

At long last, Bond 25 has its director. The uber-talented Cary Fukunaga is replacing Danny Boyle for the 25th installment of the James Bond franchise. The man behind Beasts of No Nation and the creative force who helmed True Detective‘s excellent first season will be leading Daniel Craig’s legendary MI6 super spy for what might be his last turn in the role. If you’re wondering whether Fukunaga’s involvement means that the next Bond might be everyone’s choice,

LeBron James to Star in Space Jam Remake

There are few things in life that’ll please just about everybody, but we’re going to go out on a limb and say this might be one of them. NBA legend and all-around top-notch human being LeBron James will be starring in a remake of Space Jam from Random Acts of Flyness creator Terence Nance and produced by Black Panther writer/director Ryan Coogler.

Can you Spot the Hidden Clue in this Cryptic Avengers 4 set Photo?

You’ve got to hand it to Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 directors Joe and Anthony Russo; they sure know how to drive fans insane. The Russo Brothers have dropped a brand new photo from the set of Avengers 4, with the crazy-making caption “Look hard…”, inviting all of us to scour the shot for something, anything, that would give us a clue about the upcoming final film in MCU’s phase 3.

AMC Has Plans to Turn The Walking Dead Into a Major Franchise

The Walking Dead is as difficult to put down as the walkers themselves. In fact, it seems to be spreading. Andrew Lincoln is exiting the original series, but that still isn’t the kill shot that will put this franchise down. And why should it? So many strong characters have emerged over the course of the series. Rick would never have made it this far without Michonne (Danai Gurira), Daryl (Norman Reedus), Maggie (Lauren Cohan) or Carol (Melissa McBride).

Listen to John Carpenter’s Revamped Halloween Theme

We caught the midnight screening of Halloween at the Toronto Film Festival and we loved it. Loved. It. Writer/director David Gordon Green and his co-writers Danny McBride and Jeff Fradley have delivered a delicious, terrifying coda to the practically mythical clash between Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney). The slasher flick is both a loving tribute to John Carpenter’s iconic original and a worthy follow-up.
