George R. R. Martin Dishes on the Targaryen-Centered Game of Thrones Prequel

With a new streaming platform seemingly launching every day, and hundreds of content creators flooding the zone with new stories, why couldn’t there be multiple Game of Thrones prequels on air?

Granted, the creator of “A Song of Ice and Fire” fantasy series that started it all can’t claim he’s an objective voice on the subject, but he does have a point.

How Mindhunter’s Composer Manipulates Sound to Create an Unexpected Score

What kind of music describes the FBI’s early attempts to understand the mind of a serial killer? According to Mindhunter, the David Fincher-produced Netflix series based on Mindhunter: Inside the FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit, by John E. Douglas and Mark Olshaker, the auditory embodiment of this process swings between a creepily high-pitched yet restrained clamor, and quiet, moody intonations, like the rumbling of an ominous wind.

Paul Rudd has been shrunken (Ant-Man). Paul Rudd has been enlarged (Captain America: Civil War, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Avengers: Endgame). But now, Paul Rudd has been multiplied.

Hailee Steinfeld may Lead Disney+’s Hawkeye Series

You’d be hard-pressed to find a better person to play Hawkeye‘s protege, Kate Bishop, than Oscar-nominated actress Hailee Steinfeld. Variety reports the immensely talented Steinfeld is in talks to join Jeremy Renner in Marvel Studios upcoming Disney+ series. Bishop is the young woman who, in the comics, becomes the new Hawkeye after Clint Barton passes on the mantle to her. Bishop’s Hawkeye ultimately becomes part of the Young Avengers,

The Man in the High Castle‘s Emmy-Nominated VFX Supervisor on Taking Down Lady Liberty

The third season finale of The Man in the High Castle sees the show’s alternate fascist reality, based on the eponymous Philip K. Dick novel, take a giant leap forward for Nazism in America — surrounded by cheering crowds, the Statue of Liberty is brought down under fireworks, fighter jets, and Himmler’s watch.

How Killing Eve Showrunner Emerald Fennell Delivered 9 Emmy Nominations

“It’s OK if you feel weird. You just killed someone for the first time. With an ax.” That’s one many deadpan Killing Eve lines crafted by actress-turned-showrunner Emerald Fennell and delivered by psychopath Villanelle (Jodie Comer) to fish-out-of-water spy Eve (Sandra Oh). AMC/BBC America’s British thriller earned nine Emmy nominations for its second season including an Outstanding Writing nod for Fennell, who seemingly came out of nowhere to succeed Killing Eve creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge as the show’s creative boss.

Will Poulter Cast in Amazon’s Mysterious Lord of the Rings Series

Will Poulter has a knack for picking interesting projects. He was dynamite as Bridger, the young, in-over-his-head fur trapper in Alejandro González Iñárritu’s The Revenant. In David Slade and Charlie Brooker’s mind-blowing Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Poulter stole every scene he was in as the coding genius Colin Ritman. This summer, he starred in Ari Aster’s gleefully bizarre horror film Midsommar. Now Variety reports that Poulter has nabbed a major role in one of the most mysterious projects in Hollywood—he’ll be in Amazon’s Lord of the Ring series.

Best of Summer 2019: Jared Harris on Creating Valery Legasov, Chernobyl’s Reluctant Hero

*As summer draws to a close, we’re looking back at some of our favorite interviews and stories.

It’s the lies told throughout Craig Mazin’s five-episode series Chernobyl that get you. After all, most anybody watching the HBO program set in today’s northern Ukraine will already know that the Soviet nuclear plant exploded in 1986, the area was eventually evacuated, and the adjacent newly-built town of Pripyat transformed into a ghost city,

Best of Summer 2019: Fleabag‘s Emmy-Nominated Cinematographer on Capturing Cutting-Edge Comedy

*As summer draws to a close, we’re looking back at some of our favorite interviews and stories.

There’s no such thing as flawless art. Flaws are baked right into anything a human being creates, and often they are hard to disassociate from the strengths that make any art worthwhile. Yet I’ve heard several people call Fleabag‘s second season flawless, and I’ve been hard-pressed to argue the point.
