Go Behind-the-Scenes With Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales
With Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales due in theaters in about two months, Walt Disney Pictures has begun teasing the latest Jack Sparrow adventure. Just this week we got more background on why Captain Salazar (Javier Bardem) has such a massive beef with Jack (Johnny Depp, as if you didn’t know). It turns out, the now dead Salazar was once a jaunty captain who was cursed by Sparrow and has been hunting him in his ghostly state ever since.
Get Out‘s Cinematographer Reveals the Methods Behind Jordan Peele’s Brilliant Madness
From the moment the first trailer for Get Out dropped, we knew this was going to be something special. We were beyond excited to see comedy genius Jordan Peele (Key & Peele) take on a horror movie and the final product exceeded all our hopes. Get Out travels from poking fun at the insecurities of race relations in America to dramatizing the terror of racism in a way that has critics becoming philosophers as they try to unpack Peele's genius for tackling sensitive subjects with humor,
Casey Affleck Goes Beneath the Sheets in A Ghost Story‘s First Trailer
A24 has quickly built a reputation for working with auteurs and producing high quality, conformity busting genre films. Recall the great Ex Machina, which took a common sci-fi conceit (sentient robot, A.I., feckless humans) and gave it a stylish, updated twist. It looks like the studio is once again teaming up with serious talents to reimagine genre—this time the ghost story—in, wait for it, David Lowery (Ain’t Them Bodies Saints, Pete’s Dragon),
Han Solo Casting Update, Character Names Revealed
Even though it doesn’t yet have a name, Woody Harrelson already boasted recently that the upcoming Star Wars Han Solo spinoff will be the best in the franchise (while Woody's character has gotten a name—Beckett). With even more details emerging from what already sounded like an incredible film, he very well could be right.
Harrelson appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last Wednesday,

Rainn Wilson on Gargamel’s Evil Laugh & More in Smurfs: The Lost Village
The new all-animated Smurfs: The Lost Village is a colorful, imaginative, funny, and sweet story that answers a question Smurfs fans have asked for a long time: where are the female Smurfs?

The Boss Baby‘s Director & Producer Talk Baldwin, Childhood, Dr. Seuss
Director Tom McGrath (the Madagascar movies) admits that his very funny and heartwarming new animated film, The Boss Baby is both a tribute and apology to his older brother. It is the story of a seven-year-old named Tim whose blissful life is turned upside down by the arrival of a baby brother. As Tim’s parents dote on the new arrival, they somehow never notice that the baby has a suit and tie,
Pennywise is Back: New Photos From the set of It
Director Andy Muschietti’s Instagram page has kept fans in the loop on his progress on It, his adaptation of Stephen King’s seminal horror novel starring Pennywise the Clown, the child-eating monster that is one of King’s most grotesque, and compelling, villains. Per usual in a King story, the action takes place in small town Maine (Derry, to be precise), where every 30 years a nameless monster appears in the sewer system and,

Which Robot was the First to Have Free Will in Westworld?
After a long production schedule and some delays, once Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy Nolan's Westworld’s premiered on HBO, millions of us were more or less immediately hooked. The story of synthetic androids (called “Hosts”) who entertain the rich guests at the Western-themed amusement park known as Westworld struck a nerve. Unlike Michael Crichton's original, in this Westworld, the humans were the villains. The guests paid top dollar in order to live out their dreams and fantasies,
Jack Sparrow’s Being Hunted in new Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales Preview
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again—you can’t do a better job of casting your main villain than snagging Javier Bardem. The man who made Anton Chigurh one of the truly great monsters in 21st century cinema in the Coen Brothers No Country for Old Men is playing Captain Salazar—a ghost sailor who, wouldn’t you know, has a major beef with a certain Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.
Watch the Extended Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 TV Spot
Tickets are now on sale for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which is the ostensible point of this new, extended TV spot. We’d like to think that along with that crucial information, the spot also emphasizes what made the original such a hit—a Deadpool-like irreverent streak mixed with some actual emotions. Whether our heroes are mocking each other or risking their lives for one another,
Check out the new Justice League Trailer
As promised, Justice League dropped their full-length trailer this weekend, an epic two-and-a-half-minute glimpse at Zack Snyder’s big DC ensemble film.

Watch Vin Diesel Drive a Flaming car in Fate of the Furious Clip
No matter what type of vehicle you give him, and no matter what condition its in (this includes being airborne, say, released from the back of a cargo plane), Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) can handle it. The Fast & Furious franchise has thrown every conceivable vehicular challenge at Dom and he’s met them all. In the latest clip from The Fate of the Furious, Dom is driving a vintage 1950s junker through the streets of Havana…
How Star Wars: The Last Jedi is Approaching Carrie Fisher’s Death
It was a devastating blow when Carrie Fisher passed away last December. Fisher meant so much to so many people, from Star Wars fans to the millions of people she touched with her books, screenplays, and her many, many great roles throughout the years. Her last role was, of course, a return to the very character that had made her an international superstar—Princess Leia. Fisher had already returned (now as General Organa) in J.J.
Watch Batman & the Flash in new Justice League Teasers
Yesterday we shared Aquaman’s new teaser for Zack Snyder’s Justice League, which is one of five that Warner Bros. will be releasing before the full trailer this Saturday. Today, we’ve got two more to show you—Ben Affleck’s Batman and Ezra Miller’s Flash.

Check out the new Poster for Alien: Covenant
A while back, we interviewed Swiss documentarian Belinda Salin on her film Dark Star: H.R. Giger’s World. Giger is perhaps most famous in the United States as the man who helped Ridley Scott create the terrifying xenomorph from Alien, arguably one of the most famous movie monsters of all time. Ridley Scott was shown Giger’s “Necronomicon,” a book of Giger images that led to Scott giving him the job as a conceptual artist for the film.
