See the Extravagant World of Crazy Rich Asians in the First Trailer
Warner Bros. has finally released the first full-length for trailer Crazy Rich Asians, and we’re digging the comedy, the tone, and the breezy, charming presence of a bunch of up-and-coming stars.
Constance Wu (Fresh off the Boat) stars as the films protagonist Rachel Chu. Rachel is under the impression that her long-time boyfriend Nick Young (Henry Golding) is just your typical guy—she’s wrong. When Nick invites her to travel with him to Singapore for his best friend’s wedding and to meet his family,
First Reactions to Avengers: Infinity War Praise a Shocking, Gutsy Epic With an Incredible Villain & Ending
Do not fear—this is an Avengers: Infinity War spoiler free zone. The first reactions to the Russo Brothers epic are now pouring in, and they tout one of Marvel’s gutsiest, most gonzo efforts with possibly its best ending, ever. The studio didn’t hold the Infinity War press screenings until much later than usual, partly in an effort to make sure there were as few spoilers are possible. They even got the film’s villain,
Watch Tom Hardy Become Venom in the Film’s First Official Trailer
The last peek we got at Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy), he was only just starting his transformation into one of Marvel’s most twisted, iconic anti-heroes, Venom. The first teaser for Venom gave us a a glimpse of what was troubling Brock, beginning with a breakup with his girlfriend, followed by losing someone close to him, and then a mysterious but major accident with an alien craft. It was this last bit that would turn out to be the most momentous—in the accident,
See Thanos’s Four-Armed Alien Army Up Close & Personal in new Avengers: Infinity War Featurette
This is it. Your last few bits of new Avengers: Infinity War footage before the film’s premiere this Friday, April 27. This new featurette, “Wakanda Revisited,” boasts perhaps more new shots than we’ve seen in weeks, including a much closer look at the Outriders, the four-armed alien creatures sent to Wakanda by Thanos (Josh Brolin) to kill, maim, and maul as many of Earths’ heroes as they can. You’ll see brand new footage,
James Wan’s Tommyknockers Gets the Glowing Green Light from Universal
James Wan wants to remind everyone to never answer when the Tommyknockers are at the door. The Stephen King renaissance continues with the Aquaman director creating a fresh onscreen adaptation of King’s alien invasion novel. Deadline reports that Wan sealed a deal with Universal Studios to revisit the sci-fi classic.
Released in 1987, Tommyknockers explores a UFO that crash lands in a Maine town (of course).
Amy Adams Investigates Chilling Secrets of the Past and Present in Sharp Objects
We have had four years to recover from the twisted psychological torture of Gone Girl, so it is time to subject ourselves to the next onscreen adaptation of a Gillian Flynn novel. Amy Adams stars in Sharp Objects, which runs as deep and jagged as Gone Girl into the psychosis of the human mind. The first trailer for the HBO miniseries is beautifully haunting and appropriately creepy with the added element of a group of young girls who seem…off.
Kevin Feige Says Black Panther 2 Will Happen Whenever Ryan Coogler’s Ready
One of the great public services Avengers: Infinity War is about to do is bringing back some of our favorite characters from Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther. T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o), Shuri (Letitia Wright), Okoye (Danai Gurira) and more have big parts to play in the Russo Brothers epic. Who on planet Earth doesn’t want to see Shuri own Bruce Banner? No one. What few people could have predicted was the fact that it would be the super-sized Infinity War that would be following a historic Marvel film.
James Cameron’s Surprising Inspiration for the Avatar Sequels
There were some familiar storytelling elements in James Cameron’s 2009 Avatar, but as a master of movie technology, the visuals were groundbreaking. With four sequels in the works, it’s no surprise that Cameron doesn’t just have more of the same planned. The science fiction pioneer had to have some new material in mind to pursue such a mega project. We did not, however, anticipate this comparison.
Cameron recently spoke at press day for the upcoming documentary James Cameron’s Story of Science Fiction.
Dwayne Johnson Isn’t the Only Thing Smoldering in a New Digital Skyscraper Poster
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson may be the hero we truly deserve. His latest film, Rampage, enjoyed a successful opening weekend, as our favorite be-muscled hero saved Chicago—and by extension the world—from mutated creatures. Yet when you’ve got charisma and pecs to spare, your work is never done. To wit: Johnson is off to China to save the day (again) when a Skyscraper goes up in flames in, wait for it,
The Handmaid’s Tale’s Samira Wiley Talks Religion, Love, and Season 2
Fresh from their Peabody Award win, The Handmaid’s Tale returns for a highly anticipated 2nd season. Season 1, which was filmed before Donald Trump was elected, became more than just a cautionary tale after his campaign and first year in office. Though sometimes difficult to watch, it represents some of the best writing and acting on the small screen. It also affirms just how successful and multi-layered a show with a strong female presence,
Spidey Will be Leaving New York in Spider-Man Homecoming Sequel
You’ll be seeing Spider-Man (Tom Holland) in just a few days when Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters on Friday, April 27. What we’ve seen from previous trailers and TV spots is that Peter Parker is tapped to join Doctor Strange, Iron Man and others on a trip to Thanos (Josh Brolin)’s home planet of Titan. This is the second time Parker’s left his native New York to join the Avengers—in Captain America: Civil War,
Watch how They Created The Fantastically Creepy Drone Hosts in Westworld
During last night’s bloody, delightfully creepy season two premiere of Westworld, perhaps no new characters made quite as big an impact as the drone hosts. We first encounter on of these faceless, skinless robots coming up behind Bernard (Jeffrey Wright)—utterly silently. Co-creator Jonathan Nolan explains their creation in this great new behind-the-scenes featurette, explaining that the drone hosts offer viewers—and sentient hosts like Bernard—an opportunity to see what the hosts true nature, once you strip all of the deceptively realistic flesh and blood away.
Rob Delaney’s Average Superhero in Deadpool 2 Brings Out the Hero in Us All
Deadpool has his eyes set on rivaling the X-Men and is even taking cracks at the Avengers in the final trailer. The Merc with the Mouth is forming his own team of crimefighting mutants featuring Domino (Zazie Beetz), Bedlam (Terry Crews), Shatterstar (Lewis Tan), and…Peter (Rob Delaney)?
No, it’s not Peter Parker and definitely not Peter Quill. He’s just…Peter. The final trailer introduced us to the affable character, played by the hilarious Rob Delaney of Catastrophe,
Constance Wu Gets An Extravagant Welcome to Singapore in First Crazy Rich Asians Teaser
2018 is off to a smashing start with Black Panther breaking box office records, A Quiet Place reinventing the horror genre and leaving audiences too scared to even breathe, and Avengers: Infinity War setting records before its release next week. Now we are getting the first look at John Chu’s Crazy Rich Asians that is sure to be one of the top rom coms of the year.
Hope van Dyne’s Mission is Central to the Plot of Ant-Man and the Wasp
Just about all the oxygen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is being hovered up, understandably, by Avengers: Infinity War. While the mega-blockbuster has all our attention, don’t sleep on the next film in the MCU right after it—Ant-Man and the Wasp. Paul Rudd’s diminutive superhero and his super-powered pal the Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) will have the honor, and the burden, of being the first film to follow up the Avengers (and just about every other Marvel character)’s fight with Thanos.
Michael Myers Looks Worse for the Wear in First Halloween Poster
Time has not been kind to Michael Myers. The serial killer of Haddonfield is back with a few more wrinkles than he sported four decades ago. Universal has released the first poster for the upcoming Halloween and The Shape’s stoic mask has weathered with age.
The brilliant poster design rivals the 1978 classic jack-o-lantern wielding a carving knife that’s haunted our nightmares since childhood. Myers’ looming stillness hangs in a black abyss and you could fall right into his dark eyes.
Denzel Washington Returns for his First Sequel Ever in The Equalizer 2 Trailer
Arguably Hollywood’s most charismatic leading man is returning to a role for the first time in his career. Denzil Washington is back as retired agent and hired gun Robert McCall in Antoine Fuqua’s The Equalizer 2. How tough is McCall? Consider he sizes up a half dozen toughs who mean him considerable harm and starts his stopwatch. Pop quiz: what takes longer, McCall dispatching these goons or heating up a Hot Pocket? It’s a trick question—McCall takes them out in a fraction of the time it would take.
Wild Final Deadpool 2 Trailer Takes Jabs at Avengers: Infinity War‘s Thanos
Josh Brolin is obviously pulling double duty in the Marvel Universe, but we didn’t expect anyone to call him out on it. The in-demand actor will threaten Earth in Avengers: Infinity War next week as Thanos, but he also plays the mutant with the muscle, Cable, in Deadpool 2. Yesterday, Brolin teased that this is just the beginning of Cable’s story. Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) couldn’t pass up the chance to take a dig at the star in the new Deadpool 2 trailer saying of Cable,
Screenwriters Lawrence & Jonathan Kasdan say Solo: A Star Wars Story is a Crime Movie
If you’re writing a movie about the most famous smuggler in the galaxy, it makes sense that it would be a crime movie. Our hopes that Solo: A Star Wars Story would be a heist film seem to have been realized—the film’s father/son screenwriting team has confirmed it. Praise Jabba!
Once again The Star Wars Show has nabbed video interviews no one else in the galaxy is getting, this time with Solo screenwriters Lawrence and Jonathan Kasdan (their chat begins at the 3:10 mark).
Shuri Owns Bruce Banner in Fantastic new Avengers: Infinity War Clip
It goes without saying at this point that Letitia Wright’s Shuri was one of the best parts of Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther. That’s saying something considering how many best parts of Black Panther there were. As T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman)’s brilliant little sister, Shuri may not be an elite warrior like the Dora Milaje‘s leader Okoye (Danai Gurira), or a super spy like Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o), but without her there’s simply no way Black Panther could have defeated Erik Killmonger (Michael B.
