Didn’t get enough of Sylvester Stallone in his brief appearance in Guardians of The Galaxy Vol.2? Well no worries, because all you Sly fans can look forward to his return to the big screen, and the ring, in Creed II—filming for this next installment of the iconic Rocky franchise has officially started. Rocky himself, Sylvester Stallone shared behind the scenes footage on his Instagram.
Stallone’s excitement is palpable as he invites viewers inside his trailer,
Avengers: Infinity War More than Doubles the Number of Avengers in Age of Ultron
And then there were 20+. When Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, the Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye founded the Avengers, they probably couldn’t fathom what a fighting force the alliance would become. However, they probably also didn’t imagine a force of evil as monstrous as Thanos. We know it’s all hands on deck for Avengers: Infinity War. Whichever manner you use to total up the number of official members, this is going to be a mega super team.
Behold The Final Trailer for John Krasinski’s Critically Acclaimed Horror A Quiet Place
You know you’ve got a hot horror film on your hands when the genre loving, horror obsessed SXSW crowd showers your movie with love. This is a festival that really digs its horror films, and John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place opened this year’s SXSW in a big way. Here’s how Rolling Stone‘s David Fear (the perfect byline) reported on how Krasinki’s film was received:
“‘Opening-night film selections should be fun!”
Zack Snyder Reveals Chilling Reason Superman Was Evil in Batman v Superman ‘Knightmare’ Scene
In one of the most memorable sequences from Zack Snyder’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) has a nightmare in which a very evil Superman executes two men on either side of Batman, before ripping off the caped crusader’s cowl and preparing, presumably, to do him in, too. Now referred to as the “Knightmare” scene, it speaks to director Zack Snyder’s very dark vision for what was, at that point,
Ron Howard Reveals Glimpse of Colossal Space Battle in Solo: A Star Wars Story
With Solo: A Star Wars hitting theaters on May 25, we’re all very “patiently” waiting for more information on the film, whether by trailer, image or plot point. We’ve been so patient, in fact, we jumped on this nugget of information that revealed the events in Solo are some of the earliest in the entire Star Wars timeline, including the films, books and animated series. While Lucasfilm and Walt Disney Studios have been keeping promotional material for Solo pretty close to their chests (that didn’t stop us from posting this story on the very different Millennium Falcon seen thus far),
Rey & Finn to Stick Together in Star Wars: Episode IX
When Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Finn (John Boyega) met in J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the new era of Star Wars officially began. Finn watched in awe (as did we) when Rey beat up some goons, saved his life (several times in this initial sequence, in fact) and helped them both escape by jumping into an old piece of junk (ahem, the Millennium Falcon) and evade the First Order that was hot on Finn’s tail.
The End is Near in New Avengers: Infinity War TV Spot
We are now officially in the homestretch of Avengers: Infinity War promotional material, with the film due in theaters in only a few weeks (April 27). New TV spots are popping up left and right, giving us morsels of new footage while also giving us a better feel for just how dramatic—and game-changing—the events in Infinity War are going to be. The latest new spot, titled “One Goal,”
Jurassic World Director Colin Trevorrow Will Return for Part 3
Jurassic World 3 now has a director and we’re in good hands. Colin Trevorrow, who was handpicked by Steven Spielberg to direct the first Jurassic World, will be back too bookend the trilogy.
“Colin Trevorrow is going write and direct the third Jurassic World story,” Spielberg confirmed to EW. The 2015 reboot of Jurassic Park was a success, pulling down $1.67 billion at the box office.
Amazing Fan Art Shows Captain Marvel Rising From the Flames
Fan art alert! Where would the world be without artists and fan art to satisfy us until official promotion are released. First by curing us of Hawkeye withdrawals we were experiencing as there was an archer shaped hole in all our hearts when the official Avengers: Infinity War poster was released minus the S.H.I.E.L.D. archer.
Now, new fan art has popped up of Captain Marvel, to help placate fans who are anticipating the release of Marvel’s upcoming film starring Brie Larson.
Broken Down, Dirtied, and Greased Up: Designing the Costumes of A Series of Unfortunate Events
Evil has never had a more sumptuous wardrobe than in Netflix’s A Series of Unfortunate Events. Count Olaf (Neil Patrick Harris), who fancies himself a great actor, utilizes thinly veiled, yet tremendously detailed costumes to fool the show’s dimwitted adults. Costume designer Cynthia Summers created Olaf’s many aliases, as well as the clothing for the rest of the cast, in season two.
“I think it’s wackier,” Summers said of the new episodes.
There is Way More to Steven Spielberg’s Thrilling Ready Player One Than ’80s References
Play the trailer for Ready Player One in any public space, and you’ll likely get one of three reactions. The youngest in the crowd will almost instantly know what you’re watching, and will tell you they can’t wait to see it. Older demographics will automatically recognize the opening strains of the Van Halen’s Jump, and pause just the same. Still others will stop to tell you how fantastic the book was. Ready Player One is one of those rare stories that truly has something for everyone.
Inside the Americans Writer’s Room with Screenwriter Justin Weinberger
Over the past five years—a period that has seen more quality TV than all previous years of televisual output combined—The Americans has established itself as one of television’s smartest dramas (even if the Emmy cognoscenti have been slow to realize it). Now in its sixth and final season, the FX series (starring Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys as undercover Soviet spies living in Washington D.C. during the Cold War) is finally,
Narcos Star & Game of Thrones Standout Pedro Pascal Joins Wonder Woman 2
Pedro Pascal has been sensational on Netflix’s Narcos for the past three years, but most folks still know him best as Oberyn Martell on season four of Game of Thrones. It says something about an actor’s charisma when he can burst onto a massive ensemble show like GoT and stand out. As Martell, Pascal embodied an intriguing melange of fearlessness, recklessness, and, in a revealing conversation with Tyrion,
Black Widow vs. the Black Order in New Avengers: Infinity War TV Spot
With Avengers: Infinity War officially less than a month away, we’re going to be seeing a lot of these brief bursts of new footage, like the one we shared yesterday of a sassy teen Groot and an inspirational T’Challa. Now we’ve got another new TV spot for you, with new sequences sprinkled among moments you’ve seen before (but, like us, probably don’t mind seeing again). The part of this new TV spot that crackles the most is Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) giving a much darker pep talk than T’Challa,
Enter the Samurai: New Westworld Trailer Reveals the World Within & Beyond the Park
Gaining sentience was a dramatic journey for the hosts of Westworld, but the havoc that might come from their combined knowledge looks even more wild. The robots are still seeking answers and don’t always have it right, but the fact that they know to question is truly compelling. The season 2 trailer gives us clues to some of the parks biggest mysteries, and sets up an exciting chapter in the series.
A major theme emerges in the fact that we are seeing a lot of area beyond the park and control center.
Margot Robbie Runs This Neon Town in the New Terminal Trailer
Everyone has someone to kill in the new trailer for Terminal. And some of those people are successful. The trailer takes a 90 degree turn in style from the original teaser. The mysterious introduction that appeared last week seemed serious and sober. Now it’s clear from the new trailer that this movie will dive into dark comedy territory.
We cannot wait to follow Margot Robbie – and all her various aliases – down the wacky and neon lit rabbit hole.
Offred Escaped Gilead in Body, But Maybe Not in Mind in the Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 Trailer
As an adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s thrilling novel, we had a pretty good idea of where the first season of The Handmaid’s Tale was going. There were some newly introduced concepts and characters and a few surprises, but for the most part, the script told a similar story. Both, however, ended with a chilling cliffhanger. Where was Offred (Elisabeth Moss) going? Was Nick (Max Minghella) a member of Mayday or an Eye? In the book,
Robert Downey Jr. Announces Stellar Cast of The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle
The doctor is in and what a patient roster. Robert Downey Jr. has been hanging out alone as the sole cast member of The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle, but that has all changed. Downey Jr., who is active on Twitter, announced his new fellow cast members himself.
I am most pleased to announce the stellar voice cast joining me on #TheVoyageofDoctorDolittle. #EmmaThompson @ItsRamiMalek @octaviaspencer #RalphFiennes @kumailn @selenagomez @MrCraigRobinson @carmenejogo @TomHolland1996 #MarionCotillard @RealFDLT @JohnCena pic.twitter.com/GmfjOCqv7w

The Darkest Minds Trailer Reveals Superpowered Teens on the Run
Superheroes aren’t always adults (as Peter Parker has proved), and they’re not always operating in a world that cares for what they have to offer (see Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice). And sometimes, they’re not only not adults nor area they welcome, they’re being actively hunted or imprisoned. This the backdrop in which 20th Century Fox’s new film The Darkest Minds takes place, and a new trailer introduces us to a plucky group of very powerful kids in a story so timely it seems ripped from the headlines (and then filtered through a Marvel comic book).
Gina Rodriguez to Star as Carmen Sandiego in Animated series and Live-Action film
The great Gina Rodriguez is best known for her stellar work on The CW’s Jane the Virgin, yet the last time we saw her taking on a secret assignment, she was playing Anya Thorensen in Alex Garland’s trippy, super intense sci-fi film Annihilation. In that film, Rodriguez shed all remnants of her persona from Jane the Virgin and showed us a raw, vulnerable character who plunged into the mysterious Area X and found some seriously horrifying stuff.
