Brand New Avengers: Infinity War Bonus Trailer Boasts New Footage, Bloopers

With Avengers: Infinity War coming home via digital download, that means a lot of fresh material is now available. That includes behind-the-scenes secrets of filming, news on which characters survived Thanos’s snap, gag reels, deleted scenes and more. Marvel has now just released a new bonus trailer, with a bunch of new footage, some great line flubs (watching master thespian Benedict Cumberbatch mess up his character’s name is especially delicious) and details about all the extras you’ll be getting when you bring Infinity War home...

Women Take Charge in Our First Look at Terminator 6

Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions are ready to terminate one more time. They’ve just revealed the first official Terminator 6 photo, and we can already decipher a lot. We finally get a clear image of the film’s three lead characters, the glorious return of Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) and the two new characters, Grace (Mackenzie Davis) and Dani Ramos (Natalia Reyes). Another exciting tidbit is the return of the franchise’s iconic title villain/hero (depending upon whether you’re recalling the original film or the epic sequel, ...

Mission: Impossible – Fallout’s Production Designer on Building a World of Mayhem

The sixth installment of Mission: Impossible premiered last Friday to critical praise and a series-best opening at the box office. Among the numerous elements that made MI6 a standout was the continuation of outlandish, death-defying, and yet quite scenic stunts, mostly performed by Tom Cruise himself, in the role of Impossible Missions Force agent Ethan Hunt.

Hunt’s nemesis, Solomon Lane (played by Sean Harris), from the franchise’s fifth film,...

The Avengers: Infinity War Cast Member Who Cracked Up Most on Set

Now that the home release of Avengers: Infinity War is available, there are tons of exciting tidbits piling in to discuss. For something light, who doesn’t love some behind the scenes gag reels of their favorite movies? Well, it’s your lucky day, superhero fans.

The Riverdale Composer on Mixing Melodrama with Archie’s Innocent Past

Riverdale of the classic Archie comics was a quaint and wholesome every town with a spotless reputation. In print for more than 75 years, a recent shakeup led Archie Comics CCO, Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, to create Riverdale. The edgy soap opera saga finally acknowledged that so many rivalries couldn’t remain peaceful and there had to be a dark underbelly in the town. Criminal empires, student-teacher relationships, and murder mysteries plague Riverdale with the heart of the original Archie characters intact...

Sherlock & Doctor Who Showrunner Bringing The Time Traveler’s Wife to HBO

With the series finale of Game of Thrones looming, and Netflix’s incredible volume of original content, HBO is looking for lightning in a bottle with an adaptation of Audrey Niffenegger’s novel The Time Traveler’s Wife. Steven Moffat, famous as the showrunner for the acclaimed series Doctor Who and Sherlock, will bring the story to the small screen.

We’ve seen The Time Traveler’s Wife before,...

Emily Blunt & Dwayne Johnson Have Infectious Chemistry in New Jungle Cruise Teaser

After the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise proved that theme park rides can inspire great filmmaking, Disney will adapt possibly its most iconic ride for the big screen. Co-stars Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson appeared in the first teaser for Jungle Cruise, loosely based on the Disneyland and Magic Kingdom ride. The clip is really just a minute of hilarious banter between the stars, with Johnson joking that they can be like “Humphrey Bogart and Kathleen Hepburn,” and Blunt even walking off stage when Johnson steals her line...

Valkryie Lives! And Other Avengers: Infinity War Home Release Revelations

Yesterday we shared this deleted scene from the home release of Avengers: Infinity War. It gave us a bit background for the tragic “family” story of Thanos (Josh Brolin) and Gamora (Zoe Saldana). Their storyline was one of the most crucial in the film, and the coda to their relationship one of the most heartbreaking. The impact of Avengers: Infinity War on the MCU was, by design, catastrophic. Yet the Russo Brothers and their entire filmmaking team—including writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely,...

Seeing (and Saving) the World With Mission: Impossible – Fallout‘s Location Scout

Jaunty banter, truly insane stunts and Tom Cruise’s seemingly superhuman inability to slow down aside, one of the most arresting aspects of Mission: Impossible — Fallout are the film’s environments. As IMF agent Ethan Hunt, Cruise is chased down, on a motorcycle, through the middle of Paris, crashes through London offices only to end up thwarted on the roof of the Tate Modern (at least the view is stunning), and winds up fighting for the health of the planet on an alarmingly remote bit of rock face in India (played here by an alarmingly remote bit of rock face in Norway)...

Mission: Impossible – Fallout’s Stunt Coordinator on the Craziest Film in Franchise History

By now it is well known that Tom Cruise, age 56, performs his own stunts. What is not as obvious, unless you are familiar with his whole body of work, is that he is always training, that he learns fresh stunts for new films, and that, according to those who work with him, he shows absolutely no sign of slowing down. Of course, if you caught the commercial and critical hit sixth installment of the Mission: Impossible franchise over the weekend,...

New Infinity War Deleted Scene Dives Deeper into Thanos & Gamora’s History

The Mad Titan and his adopted daughter have one of the rockier relationships we’ve seen on the screen lately.

The lengthy Avengers: Infinity War already provided tons of emotional insight into the quarrel between Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and her self-proclaimed protector, Thanos (Josh Brolin). Gamora’s home planet was one of the early victims of Thanos’ conquest, and he took the adorably innocent, green child into his giant arms—after killing her parents, of course...

Being Venom is Brutal, But Somebody’s Gotta Do It

Things in Eddie Brock’s (Tom Hardy) world have gotten completely out of control. Although the sentient tar like substance that has attached itself to Eddie’s body is called a symbiote, a new trailer for Venom makes it clear that we’re dealing with a parasite. It does what it wants, when it wants, and Eddie really has no say over the matter.

The latest look at Venom completely lifts the veil on the relationship between symbiote and host...

Patty Jenkins Shares new Image of Pedro Pascal in Wonder Woman 1984

When we learned that former Game of Thrones guest star and Narcos headliner Pedro Pascal had joined Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman 1984, we were enthused. Pascal is a deeply talented actor, one who managed to waltz into season four of Game of Thrones and make his Oberyn Martell an instant fan favorite. No easy feat considering GoT‘s got a massive cast, filled with talented performers playing a bevy of heavies,...

New Aquaman Images Reveal the Film’s Monster Ambitions

Last week we shared Aquaman‘s righteous first trailer fresh from Cinema-Con. The nearly two and a half minute burst of underwater mayhem has given hopeful fans of both the character and director James Wan a reason to be thrilled. Seeing the the legendary Atlantian superhero leading his own franchise, with what appears to be some of the most ambitious filmmaking in the DCEU’s history, is reason for excitement. Massive underwater battles and brilliantly constructed sequences in Atlantis were two eye-popping moments in the trailer...

First Godzilla: King of the Monsters Image Reveals the King Himself

We got our first look at the trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters last week during Comic-Con, and it revealed possibly the most monster-packed film in the franchise’s history. Now, with the first official image of Godzilla himself made available by Warner Bros., we can see what form the iconic monster has taken in the latest film. One of the intriguing aspects of King of the Monsters is that this is an actual sequel,...

Mowgli Will Premiere on Netflix Next Year

There was already steadily growing buzz surrounding Andy Serkis’ Mowgli, but the roar just grew a few decibels louder.

Netflix had already purchased distribution of the cerebral sci-fi hit Annihilation and the hugely secretive Cloverfield Paradox, but the streaming service upped its game again when it acquired the rights to the Jungle Book­-inspired Mowgli, per Deadline. Netflix plans to withdraw the film from its initial wide release on October 19,...

Netflix Promises that Stranger Things Season 3 Will Be Worth the Wait

I am officially establishing the Stranger Things withdrawal support group. Once you get a yearly taste of Stranger Things, it is going to be difficult to go back to the old ways. As we found out via the adorable mall themed teaser for season 3, the supernatural happenings in Hawkins are suspended until next summer. That’s an entire school year that we’ll be without the Upside Down. Halloween will come and go with no new character costumes...

This Early Concept Art for Thor’s Hammer Will Make You Miss Mjölnir

Unpopular opinion: the MCU’s saddest death takes place in the beginning of Thor: Ragnarok, when the God of Thunder’s sister, Hela, destroys his best friend.

That best friend was Thor’s hammer, Mjölnir, of course. Before it was ruthlessly shattered, the two embarked on many an adventure across the universe and slew countless foes, from the Chitauri soldiers of The Avengers to that horrific flying rodent in Ragnarok...

Emma Stone and Jonah Hill Try to Map Their Own Minds in Maniac Teaser

Are Jonah Hill and Emma Stone replicants?

Probably not. But the psychological tests they’re submitted to in Netflix’s new dark comedy Maniac do sound a bit like the ones in the Blade Runner movies. And in the limited series, the pair play two strangers who you could say are malfunctioning—one is heartbroken, and the other is possibly schizophrenic.

The teaser makes it clear from the start that this will be a show that picks up the malleable nature of the mind and runs with it...
