2019 May be the Year of Batman

Thanks to a new rumor from the DCEU Leaks Reddit, 2019 is looking like an amazing year. While you'll be seeing Ben Affleck as the Caped Crusader in Zack Snyder's upcoming Justice League, there's a whole lot more in the works for DC's most beloved superhero. Supposedly, Warner Brothers will be releasing four Batman-related movies to celebrate the character’s 80th anniversary. Yes, you read that righ—FOUR new Batman films.

Thor vs. the Hulk in Wild Thor: Ragnarok Trailer

The best news about Thor: Ragnarok wasn’t that it would include Mark Ruffalo’s The Hulk (although that was very good news), or that Cate Blanchett had joined the cast (also great news!), but much earlier than that—that it’s director would be Taika Waititi, the man behind What We Do in the Shadows and Hunt For the Wilderpeople. Taking on Marvel’s third film in the Thor series,

The Fate of the Furious Crew’s Epic Adventure in NYC

We’ve seen Dom (Vin Diesel) race through the streets of Havana, Cuba (in a car that’s on fire, no less) in previous The Fate of the Furious teasers, and now, in this new featurette, Universal is showing off the production’s time in New York City. While the film represented the largest American production ever in Cuba, New York City is used to hosting film crews, and because of this,

The Weirdest/Best Sketches From Louis C.K.’s SNL Episode

You knew that Louis C.K. wouldn't be afraid to go dark, or weird, during his hosting gig of SNL. While he may have eschewed the glitzy promo for the show, he certainly brought it where it matters most—into several supremely weird, dark, and very funny sketches.

Arguably the darkest sketch was "Birthday Clown," which had a childen's birthday party clown (Bobby Moynihan) show up for a job to perform at little Ernie's birthday,

Carrie Fisher’s General Organa Will be a Part of Star Wars: Episode IX

When Carrie Fisher passed away last year, we were all stunned and saddened. She was an icon for so many people (and for so many reasons), and it was hard to imagine Hollywood, let alone that galaxy far, far away, without her. This past March, we wrote about how filmmakers Rian Johnson, director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Colin Trevorrow, director of Star Wars: Episode IX, 

Werner Herzog’s Go-to Production Designer on Salt and Fire

A kidnapped scientist, Laura, (Veronica Ferres) fends for herself on a barren salt flat, the poisonous result of a manmade catastrophe caused by a shady conglomerate owned by her abductor, Matt (Michael Shannon). Inexplicably left behind with her to use up the water supply and sweetly play with legos are two blind little boys, Matt’s sons. Laura’s colleagues (Gael García Bernal and Volker Michalowski) are back at the ranch, a gloomy compound whose staff is never without their balaclavas.

Get a Glimpse of the Upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight Trailer

This past Wednesday we took a look at the cutting edge technology that director Michael Bay had employed for Transformers: The Last Knight.

“A movie like Transformers needs to be seen using the very finest tools,

Check out the Official Trailer for the Tupac Biopic All Eyez On Me

We've already discussed how the likeness between actor Demetrius Shipp Jr. and the late Tupac Shakur is incredibly uncanny. Yet Benny Boom's Tupac biopic, All Eyez On Me, has a lot more going for it. A stellar cast, a timely story, and as compelling as a central figure as you could ask for. The new trailer makes good use of all of these components, setting up All Eyez on Me 

Rogue One‘s SFX Supervisor on Using a Super Powered Air Cannon & More

Special effects supervisor Neil Corbould says that he has “a big smile on my face” every day when he goes to work creating special effects for Clash of the Titans and Zero Dark Thirty. Corbould had a smile and then some when he described the new effects he created for the Star Wars prequel Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. We spoke with the SFX maestro about his work on Gareth Edwards thrilling addition to the 

Louis C.K. Isn’t Interested in Doing a Splashy SNL Promo

SNL has been having a field day lately with catchy, two-person promos for their upcoming hosts. Whether it's Kate McKinnon and host Chris Hemsworth trying to recreate Dirty Dancing, Ryan Gosling and Aidy Bryant weiling on their pecs or Vanessa Bayer and Lin-Manuel Miranda discussing Miranda's inability to get Hamilton tickets, the promos have been a hoot.

Meet the Man Who Plays Rocket During Production of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Rocket (Bradley Cooper) is arguably the rudest member of the Guardians; hence his new Star-Munch moniker for Peter Quill (who prefers Star-lord). A new extended version of a previously released Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 TV spot is here, features a classic Rocket moment, when the furry, ferocious little hero gives Quill a nickname he doesn't want:

While Rocket is a stunning CGI creation,

How Guardians of the Galaxy Became a Marvel Blockbuster

Before it was a multimillion dollar franchise, Guardians of the Galaxy was an underdog in the Marvel comic world. Now, a new book from Marvel helps us remember the blockbuster’s humble beginnings.

Ahead of the release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 later this spring, Marvel released Guardians of the Galaxy: Creating Marvel's Spacefaring Super Heroes: The Complete Comics History Tuesday,

Go Behind-the-Scenes With This Transformers: The Last Knight 3D Featurette

Michael Bay’s name is nearly synonymous with special effects, explosions and cutting-edge technology. With a new Transformers installment on the way, he’s pushing the envelope once again.

In a video released by Paramount on Wednesday, the director gave a behind-the-scenes look at some of the technology used to create his final directorial venture in the franchise, Transformers: The Last Knight. From his in-home editing suite in Miami,

Rogue One Director & Cinematographer on Darth Vader’s Massive Impact

With Rogue One: A Star Wars Story now available on Blu-ray, there’s a lot of fun extras that are finding their way online. We just shared with you this great video about the creation of the U-Wing. Rogue One production designer Doug Chiang explained how, after 781 attempts, his team nailed down the design and a new, iconic Star Wars ship was born.

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia‘s Kaitlin Olson on her new Show The Mick

The comedic chops Kaitlin Olson has been consistently displaying over 12 seasons as Dee in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia have earned her a well-deserved starring role in Fox’s sitcom The Mick. She plays Mickey, an irresponsible hustler who suddenly finds herself guardian to her obscenely wealthy, estranged sister’s children. We chat to Olson about getting out of her comfort zone, working with kids and her newfound lust for power.

See How They Created the U-Wing in Rogue One

One of the coolest new additions to the rebel air fleet in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was the U-Wing. The U-Wing is described as a sturdy transport and gunship that “must penetrate heavy fire zones to deposit soldiers onto battlefields and then fly air support during dangerous missions against the Empire.” The U-Wing factors heavily into Rogue One—it’s the ship that Jyn and her crew take to Scarif in the final phase of their mission to steal the Death Star plans.

Michael Keaton May go From Spider-Man: Homecoming Villain to Dumbo Villain

The sizzling Spider-Man: Homecoming trailer we shared with you last week included our longest look at Michael Keaton's villain, The Vulture. Keaton's been on a great run since reminding audiences how much they missed him with his Oscar-nominated performance in Alejandro González Iñárritu's Birdman. Now, Variety reports that Keaton is in negotiations to play the villain in Tim Burton's live-action remake of 

The Fate of the Furious Opens With Epic Race in Cuba

Last week we shared this clip from The Fate of the Furious of Dom (Vin Diesel) in an old school drag race that would have been thrilling even if the vintage car he was driving wasn’t on fire. It turns out that this scene, which was filmed in Cuba (The Fate of the Furious is the largest American production to ever shoot in the country) is the opening set piece of the film.

Ridley Scott Originally had a MUCH Different Ending for Alien

In a great new video interview conducted by Entertainment Weekly's Sara Vilkomerson, director Ridley Scott revealed that he had a much different ending in mind for Alien, his iconic, game-changing sci-fi horror film that set the bar for all subsequent sci-fi films. Scott was chatting with EW in the lead-up to his upcoming Alien: Covenant, which takes place before the events in his original classic.

Westworld Season 2 Will Shift Perspective and Play With Time (Again)

When Westworld ended its premiere season, park creator Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins) had been killed and the robot revolution had begun. Lead by the sentient “host” Maeve (Thandie Newton), Westworld’s finale was a riveting coup that left us expecting that season two would pick up right where we left off, with the hosts now tasked with figuring out what to do with their hard fought freedom (and the surviving humans still in the park).
