David Harbour Promises Stranger Things Won’t Leave Fans Hanging

Halloween may have felt cold and lonely this year without any Stranger Things to turn to. The spooky series is in a hiatus until season 3 drops next year. However, some things are worth the wait. David Harbour told CNET that good things are to come.

As soon as Stranger Things dropped on Netflix, it became an instant phenomenon. The freakishly talented cast,

A New George R.R. Martin Project May Land on Hulu

George R.R. Martin is gradually taking over our TV and we are completely fine with that. First came that little show based on Martin’s series A Song of Ice and Fire. Game of Thrones I think it is called? Next came the outer space saga Nightflyers. Game of Thrones will embark on a final season in April, but a prequel is looming starring Naomi Watts.

Pedro Pascal Joins The Mandalorian in Leading Role

Just over a month after Jon Favreau teased a brand-new Star Wars character, we now have a familiar face (although the character still has no proper name.) Variety confirms that Pedro Pascal will star in The Mandalorian on new streaming site Disney+.

Although Boba Fett has become one of the most popular characters in Star Wars canon,

Honoring the Mastermind of the MCU, Stan Lee

Stan Lee, the man with an entire universe in his mind, has died at 95.

Lee revolutionized the comics industry by giving his superheroes flawed characteristics where they had previously been invincible and unflappable. Starting with the Fantastic Four, he developed an entire interconnected series of characters that developed into the wildly successful MCU. Working with the legendary Jack Kirby, Lee created the original Avengers Hulk, Thor and Iron Man as well as the X-Men and Black Panther.

Jeremy Irons’ Intriguing Role in HBO’s Watchmen Revealed

HBO’s Watchmen is one of the more interesting TV series currently in development. Based on Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons iconic graphic novel, Watchmen offers a ton of potential for the canny creator (including the brilliant conceit and all those wonderfully weird characters), but just as many pitfalls. For one, there are few other comic-book narratives that are called “masterpieces” as Watchmen credibly is.

The Breaking Bad Universe is Expanding With a Mystery Project

Vince Gilligan is back to work in New Mexico. Exactly what that means isn’t clear, but it is very, very exciting. The Albuquerque Journal sniffed out a new feature-length project by the Breaking Bad creator taking place where the series was filmed. The local paper connected some dots that give us a picture of a new project that is related to AMC’s meth-lab mega-hit.

The New Mexico Film Office director Nick Maniatis announced,

Where Does Rick’s Departure from The Walking Dead Leave Things?

Wow. The Walking Dead. Just, wow. The show has been entertaining, exciting, even surprising, but I will honestly say I have not been this shocked since Shane’s death. Yes, this is the biggest twist to me since that season 2 episode. There have been some really emotional deaths and some blows to the psyche (Eugene was never working on a cure at all!), but this was a real curve ball.

If you are not caught up on last night’s episode of The Walking Dead,

That Game of Thrones Battle Against the White Walkers is Even Bigger Than We Thought

Remember back in April when we said Game of Thrones filmed the largest, longest battle sequence in TV history? The final showdown with the White Walkers will be truly epic, and it might be even more insane than we previously believed. Entertainment Weekly is dishing out the first official details on the final season. Among the news is information about that major battle sequence and the insane scope of capturing it.

The Vampires are Coming to America in First What We Do in the Shadows Teasers

What We Do in the Shadows sheds a light, although not sunlight, on a very important cultural divide. Not New Zealand and America, although the new series will take place in the states. The culture shock is more like the Middle Ages and millennials. The vampire series based on Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement’s 2014 masterpiece is coming to FX and we finally got the first look. Meet the new roommates.

The original mockumentary followed Viago (Waititi),

Halloween Might be Over, But Stranger Things Day is Coming

Halloween 2018 has come and gone. Perhaps you wore something inspired from The Haunting of Hill Houseor went in more of a glam direction and channeled your inner Freddie Mercury. The day after Halloween can have a bit of a gloomy cast, what with the post-candy hangover (to say nothing of how the adults are feeling after costume parties). Fear not, costume-lovers, for Netflix is giving you another reason to dress up in less than a week—Stranger Things Day.

The Haunting of Hill House Costume Designer Explains Why Those Ghosts Give You Nightmares

TV’s Halloween hit of the year is undoubtedly The Haunting of Hill House. There are some major chills and surprises, but the addicting aspects of the series are the harrowing revelations that unravel among the Crain family. The unknown horrors that plague them across the years are terrifying but they grow even scarier when the truth is revealed. Not to mention you won’t be able to close your eyes at night without checking for the Tall Man around every corner.

Naomi Watts to Star in Game of Thrones Prequel Pilot for HBO

Naomi Watts just booked a ticket to Westeros. Deadline reports that the two-time Oscar-nominee will be starring in Jane Goldman (Kingsman: The Secret Service)’s Game of Thrones prequel pilot. The story was written by Goldman and George R. R. Martin and will take place long before Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen were the biggest power couple in the Seven Kingdoms.

The plot details are predictably slim,

Give Yourself a Treat and Watch the Trailer for Dogs

Only a few more nights to enjoy the frights and delights of Halloween season binge-watching, but if you’re wondering what to watch next, Netflix has the obvious answer. Dogs. Yup, pure and simple.

Supergirl and Batwoman Unite on “Elseworlds” Set

Talk about girl power. The ladies of the DCEU are assembling and we are actually giddy. Supergirl and Batwoman posed together for a pic on the set of the upcoming crossover event, “Elseworlds.” Melissa Benoist posted the smiley pic with new costar, Ruby Rose, who fans are anxious to see as Batwoman.

Star Trek Getting an Animated Makeover from Rick and Morty Writer

The most delightfully nerdy event in the nerdy history of Star Trek may be what nerded today. CBS All Access has picked up two seasons of a new animated series call Star Trek: Lower Decks. As the title may imply, the stars of the series will be the most mundane among the ship. Rick and Morty writer and Star Trek superfan, Mike McMahan, will helm the project,

Midge Has Big Goals for Her Career in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Season 2

Praise be to the comedy gods. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is just weeks away from returning. A lot has happened to Midge since we saw her last, which she will probably catch us up on through her standup routine. A new trailer for season 2 reveals that a year has passed since Midge first walked out on her cheating husband and onto the stage. She took some big risks with even bigger repercussions that will hopefully be addressed when the Emmy winning show returns.

The Vietnam War Sound Designer on Enhancing Emotional Memories of the War

The Vietnam War was a harrowing conflict with ramifications that spread far from the fighting. It was the most divisive war of the 20th century that haunted veterans and civilians alike for decades. Cameras captured the brutal battles with unprecedented access. Piecing together hundreds of hours of archival footage and interviews with survivors, celebrated documentarians Ken Burns and Lynn Novick assembled an intimate portrait of the horror and humanity of the war. The Vietnam War created an illusion of immersion that demanded reconstruction of scenes with no or low-quality sound and gripping witness accounts.

Peter Dinklage Feels Good About Tyrion’s Conclusion in Game of Thrones

No, Peter Dinklage has not spilled the beans on how Game of Thrones ends. The man’s no fool, and considering he’s been one of the biggest stars on HBO’s biggest series, he’s not about to give away the game with but one (shortened) season to go. Dinklage was willing, however, to opine about how he feels about Tyrion’s fate, a character that has been, to a large degree, the stand-in for audiences around the globe,

Mysterious Masked Figure Featured in First Look of HBO’s Watchmen

Who watches the watchmen? This is one of the most deathless lines from one of the most iconic graphic novels of all time, “Watchmen,” created in the late 80s by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. The phrase is likely based on the Latin “quis custodiet ipsos custodes,” found in the work of a Roman poet named Juvenal, which is literally translated as “Who will guard the guards themselves.” This phrase, seen throughout “Watchmen”
