We’re Putting Our Full Faith in David Harbour After These Hellboy Images

Is that you, Detective Hopper? Stranger Things star David Harbour just debuted the first look at his take as demonic antihero Hellboy and he’s unrecognizable. Heavy prosthetics give the actor sunken eyes, a well-defined chin and the character’s trademark sawed off horns.

Harbour’s tweet reads, “Please allow [sic] to introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste… #hellboy”

The image is in gritty black and white,

The video features composer Jeff Russo, whose music you’ve heard on Legion and Fargo, leading the orchestra through his composition.

M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass Will Finish Trilogy Connecting Split and Unbreakable

In 2000, writer/director M. Night Shymalan released Unbreakable, starring Bruce Willis as David Dunn, the sole survivor of a devastating train wreck. It turned out that Dunn’s survival was accidental; as the title suggests, he is actually something of an indestructible superhero. This is revealed to him by Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson), a mysterious stranger who appears to be the opposite of David—he’s afflicted with a condition that make his bones as brittle as glass.

Matt Damon Dreams Big by Getting Small in 1st Downsizing Trailer

Director Alexander Payne is a master of the biting comedy, having honed his craft in some of the most whip-smart comedies of the past two decades. From 1999’s Election, an absolutely brilliant film about monstrous teenage ambition and monstrous middle-aged mediocrity, to the boozy, woozy Sideways (which cemented Paul Giamatti’s career and marked Thomas Hayden Church’s comeback), to the soulful, searching and ultimately very moving Nebraska (which marked the return of Bruce Dern),

TIFF 2017: Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water Swimming in Oscar Buzz

For fans of Guillermo del Toro (and we are legion), the success of The Shape of Water thus far is not surprising, but it is hugely welcome. The auteur behind the phenomenal Pan’s Labyrinth has had his share of ups and downs, losing dream projects like The Hobbit and his long-suffering and ultimately thwarted attempt to adapt H.P. Lovecraft’s “At the Mountains of Madness,” delivering bombastic,

Rian Johnson Says he Doesn’t Expect to Direct Star Wars: Episode IX

The biggest job in Hollywood remains open—for now. In the wake of Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow’s exit from Star Wars: Episode IX, suddenly the most coveted director’s gig in the universe became open. Whoever ends up directing Episode IX, they’ll be helming Lucasfilm’s final installment in their new trilogy, and likely the movie that ends the Skywalker saga for good (with new Star Wars-related sagas to come).

Creative Arts Emmy Awards: SNL, Stranger Things & Westworld win big

The Creative Arts Emmy Awards, spread over two nights, bestowed a bevy of awards to perennial powerhouse HBO (19!), but also had a lot of love for Netflix (16) and NBC (9) for what was another very strong year on the small screen. It shouldn’t be surprising that NBC’s Saturday Night Live was a big winner, with five awards, thanks to a ton of attention to show’s lampooning of the 2016 presidential election and standout,

Rocket Raccoon’s Twisted Origins to be Explored in Upcoming Film

One of the surprising turns in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2. was the connection forged between Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and Yondu (Michael Rooker).  Up until Yondu finally confronted Rocket on being a colossal jerk, the ferocious little hybrid guy had spent much of the film berating his fellow Guardians. Rocket was testy in the original, but in Vol. 2, he seemed downright incosolably furious, which was odd considering he finally had a family of sorts,

Beyond the Neon and Holograms, new Blade Runner 2049 Clip Gets Dirty

One of the four hundred and forty four reasons we’re thrilled about Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming Blade Runner 2049 has to do with the team he’s surrounded himself with. Longtime collaborator and one of the world’s best cinematographers, Roger Deakins, production designer Dennis Gassner, set decorator Alessandra Querzola and costume designer Renée April are all major reasons why the images we’ve seen thus far pop. They had no small task considering Ridley Scott’s 1982 original is iconic not only because it told a great story,

Thor Has a Familiar Name for His Team in new Ragnarok Spot

Thor (Chris Hemsworth) may be an ace with a mighty hammer, but he’s a little less masterful with the catchphrases.
