Tom Cruise Back to Work on Mission: Impossible 6 After Broken Ankle
Tom Cruise may be one of the biggest stars in the history of Hollywood, but that doesn’t mean he takes it easy. Just seven weeks after breaking an ankle on set, the Daily Mail reported that Cruise has returned to filming Mission: Impossible 6.

Blade Runner 2049‘s Sylvia Hoeks, Ana De Armas & Mackenzie Davis on Living up to Iconic Original
How do you interview actors from a film in which you can’t really talk about the plot at all? This has been the central conundrum facing anyone doing interviews with Blade Runner 2049 stars ahead of the film’s October 6 premiere. Whether its Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford, or Robin Wright, the stars of the film have focused on the exacting craft that went into making what’s already been hailed as a masterpiece (with special attention paid to the work of cinematographer Roger Deakins),
Here’s a Wild Justice League Rumor Concerning Superman
Here’s the thing about film merchandise; you can read into it like a crazy person (like we enjoy doing), or, you can just say, hey, this is nothing more than stuff and it doesn’t actually mean anything. Take, for example, this piece we published about how a Game of Thrones themed mug on sale at the HBO store had led to some confusion over what, exactly, the blue stuff Viserion shoots out of his mouth actually is.
New Justice League Trailer Dropping Sunday, new Posters Revealed
We’re inching closer to Justice League‘s premiere (a mere six weeks away), which means Warner Bros. is going to step up their promotional game.

There was a Debate Over Han Solo’s Fate in Star Wars: The Force Awakens
Ever since Lucasfilm was sold to Walt Disney and began making a whole new slate of Star Wars films, there can be no argument that thus far, Han Solo’s death is the most significant narrative development we’ve seen. Launching new heroes into the Star Wars galaxy in the form of Rey (Daisy Ridley), Finn (John Boyega) and Poe (Oscar Isaac) was crucial, as was developing new villains in the form of Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) and Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis).
Spider-Man: Homecoming Deleted Scene Teases Connection to The Winter Soldier
Spider-Man: Homecoming proved to be that rare thing; a pleasing, successful reboot that stood on its own as a great film, and, a seamless introduction of an iconic character in the larger MCU. With Homecoming nearing its Blu-ray release, Sony Pictures has released a deleted scene from the film that connects Peter Parker (Tom Holland) to the larger goings on in the MCU in a pretty cool way.

Kate Winslet’s Wonder Wheel Performance Looks Like a Major Awards Contender
Woody Allen is set to deliver another aesthetically pleasing period piece, but this one looks a lot darker than his usual fare. The trailer for Amazon Studios’ Wonder Wheel debuted today and it takes an intense turn.
Kate Winslet leads the film as Ginny, a waitress in Coney Island. Jim Belushi plays her husband, Humpty, who operates the amusement park carousel, but their relationship is not nearly as cheery as their surroundings.
Jenny Slate in Talks for Sony’s Venom
What would Marcel the Shell say? Jenny Slate’s career is exploding and she is about to pivot into the biggest genre in the business. The standup comedienne turned actress is reportedly in talks to join Venom.
Variety reports that Slate is expected to play a scientist, but her role has not yet been announced. Tom Hardy is a lock to play the title role of the Spider-Man spinoff. Michelle Williams and Riz Ahmed are the only other cast members to have been announced.
Blade Runner 2049 Reviews: The Rare Sequel That Might Surpass the Brilliance of the Original
The early social media reactions to Denis Villeneuve’s Blade Runner 2049 before the review embargo was lifted were stellar. To get that kind of immediate positive reaction doesn’t guarantee a film’s success, but, it’s almost always a very good sign. The pre-review social media reactions are a fairly recent phenomenon (consider it wasn’t that long ago we’d have to wait for the actual reviews to find out what those paid to have opinions thought about a film),

Bart Pranks Moe on a Game of Thrones Themed Episode of The Simpsons
Even in a Middle Ages fantasy world with no phone, Moe is still falling for the same prank he’s been subjected to over the last 29 years.
Bart had a great idea for one of his classic prank calls to Moe, but in the season 29 premiere, the medieval setting was a bit of a challenge. No matter for Bart. He took a cue from Game of Thrones and sent a carrier raven with a note to Moe’s tavern.
Unbreakable and Split Sequel Glass Begins Filming
The mastermind of mass destruction is back. Director M. Night Shyamalan tweeted that production has begun on Glass.

Creating the Zombie Polar Bear Attack in Game of Thrones
Back in late August, we shared this behind-the-scenes featurette that detailed the wild episode, “Beyond the Wall,” that included not only the massive battle between Jon and his guys and the Night King, but also that zombie polar bear attack. Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have been trying to get the zombie polar bear into a episode for years. Once they came to the script for “Beyond the Wall,”

The more we hear about the reboot/sequel to John Carpenter‘s iconic slasher film Halloween, the more excited we get. We recently told you how original Halloween star Jamie Lee Curtis was returning as Laurie Strode (despite the pesky issue of having died Halloween: Resurrection), arguably the first and best Final Girl in horror history. Now Deadline reports that the great Judy Greer might be reporting for duty in the role of Strode’s daughter.
The Florida Project’s Young Stars & Director Discuss Dazzling new Film
The Florida Project shows a side of Disney’s influence on the Sunshine State that tourists rarely see from inside the glittery artifice of the Magic Kingdom in Orlando. Namely, the economic reality of those struggling to make ends meet as they are forced to reside in the budget motels populating roadside areas beyond the theme park.
Amazingly, the film offers an often upbeat view of this lifestyle since filmmaker Sean Baker — who made a splash by shooting his previous effort,
