Ground-Level Galaxy: “Andor” DP Christophe Nuyens on Making the Most Visceral “Star Wars” Story Ever Told

The satisfactions of Tony Gilroy‘s Andor were such that many viewers comforted themselves when the series came to an end on May 13 by immediately turning to Rogue One, the 2016 feature film that Andor served as a prequel series for. Such has been the power of Andor—it’s been hard to let go, and there’s no better way to keep the rebel spirit alive than by following Cassian Andor’s (Diego Luna) story to its bittersweet conclusion.

From Shadow to Spotlight: How Elizabeth Dulau’s Kleya Became the Hidden Heartbeat of “Andor”

Tony Gilroy‘s masterful Andor has come to an end. The two-season prequel to Gilroy’s 2016 film Rogue One just delivered arguably the finest storytelling in the Star Wars universe since The Empire Strikes Back. That’s a bold and possibly needless assertion, but if you watched the series (and if you’re reading this, you likely did), my guess is you’d agree. While season one fleshed out Cassian Andor’s (Diego Luna) fitful,

From Wakanda to Chicago: “Ironheart” Trailer Unveils Riri Williams’ High-Stakes Journey in Marvel’s Latest

We first met Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) on screen in Ryan Coogler‘s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Riri is a genius student inventor who the Wakandans tapped in a significant time of need—they’d just lost their Black Panther (the late, great Chadwick Boseman) and were facing a seriously uncertain future thanks to threats from Namor (Tenoch Huerta) and his vast army of ocean-dwelling Atlanteans. Thanks in part to Riri’s Tony Stark-level technical prowess,

Mysterious “Star Wars” Series in The Works From “Lost” Showrunner Carlton Cuse

Well before Game of Thrones became the kind of appointment television event that captured the world’s interest and had millions of people tuning in simultaneously, Carlton Cuse’s Lost established the blueprint for serialized TV obsession. When Lost premiered in 2004, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse’s massively ambitious series was evident from the movie-like production values, sprawling cast, and evident chutzpah in telling a story that looked and felt big enough for the big screen.

“Daredevil: Born Again” DPs Hillary Fyfe Spera & Pedro Gómez Millán on Lensing NYC’s Mean Streets

Daredevil built a fierce fandom when the show first appeared in 2015, introducing Charlie Cox as visually impaired lawyer Matt Murdock, whose alter ego roamed the streets of New York at night as Daredevil, a superhero with heightened senses and lethally honed fighting skills. After nearly a decade, Cox reprises his role in Daredevil: Born Again, and in the first of two already planned seasons, doesn’t disappoint.

A Gripping, Ripping “Andor” Season 2 Trailer Sets Its Course for Rebellion

“I came with you to a be a part of something,” Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) says at the top of the official trailer for Andor season 2. In season 1, our titular hero started out wanting to be anything but, yet he was swept up in events far larger than them himself, and are leading him on his fateful path to eventually being a part of the team that steals the Death Star plans—a team that paid the ultimate price in their successful mission that was the heart of the 2016 film Rogue One.

Jon Bernthal Set to Return in a “Punisher” Standalone for Disney+

Jon Bernthal is ready to punish Disney+ (in a good way, folks) with more than just his upcoming role in Daredevil: Born Again. 

Bernthal’s inclusion in Marvel’s upcoming Daredevil series was manna from heaven for fans of his take on Frank Castle, the brutal antihero who exploded onto the scene in the second-season premiere of Netflix’s Daredevil, which starred Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock/Daredevil.

Julian Brave NoiseCat & Emily Kassie’s on “Sugarcane”: Their Oscar-Nominated Exploration of Trauma and Truth

Toronto-born filmmaker and investigative journalist Emily Kassie has covered conflict around the globe, from the Taliban’s crackdown on women to child labor in Turkey. “But I had never turned the lens on my own country,” says Kassie. That’s changed with Sugarcane, which mixes a grassroots investigation with personal and collective reckoning of years of forced separation, assimilation, and abuse of Indigenous children by Catholic priests at St. Joseph’s Mission Indian residential school in British Columbia,

First Trailer for “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” Slings Spidey Into Marvel’s New Animated Series

Disney+ unveiled its first animated Spider-Man series over the holidays with this glimpse at Marvel Animation’s Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.

The trailer opens on the iconic theme song—you know the one—where “Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a spider can” and was written by Bob Harris and Paul Francis Webster for the classic 1967 cartoon series. Peter Parker is voiced by Hudson Thomas, and we see just how far from a superhero Peter starts off to be;

The First Trailer for “Skeleton Crew” Unveils the Jude Law-led Disney+ “Star Wars” Series

The first trailer for Skeleton Crew has officially landed—or, perhaps, it’s more accurate to say it’s officially lost in space.

The latest Star Wars series on Disney+ has decidedly different vibes from previous live-action series set in a galaxy far, far away—think Goonies in space, and you’re halfway there. And that’s no slight—Goonies was one of the great kid’s adventure movies of the 1980s (or ever,

“Ahsoka” Emmy-Winning Costume Designers Elissa Alcala & Devon Patterson on Carrying on a Cosmic Legacy

The late Shawna Trpcic, costume designer for Ahsoka, was posthumously awarded an Emmy this past weekend at the 76th Creative Arts Emmy Winners for Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes, alongside her assistant costume designer Elissa Alcala and costume supervisor Devon Patterson, who won for the finale, “Part Eight: The Jedi, the Witch, and the Warlord.” It was an emotional win for Alcala and Patterson, who, like Trpcic, are Star Wars fans and highly regarded and now freshly minted Emmy winners.

New “Agatha All Along” Teaser Connects Marvel’s Latest Disney+ Series to “WandaVision,” its First

With Agatha All Along, Marvel Studios’ latest Disney+ series is directly connected to its very first—the stunning period piece WandaVision, which tracked Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen)’s witchy work in resurrecting her lost love, Vision (Paul Bettany) by mesmerizing an entire town in New Jersey. Wanda’s sweet, bubbly neighbor Agatha (Kathryn Hahn) seemed another piece in Wanda’s dimensional chess match, easily moved and manipulated. Yet for fans of WandaVision,

“The Acolyte” Costume Designer Jennifer Bryan on Dressing Jedis, Witches, Wookies & More

Note: this interview contains spoilers for the first three episodes.

In its newest Star Wars franchise, The Acolyte, Disney+ heads back in time to a century prior to the rise of the Galactic Empire. Amandla Stenberg stars as identical twins Osha and Mae, the former an ex-Jedi Padawan and the latter a vengeful warrior on the run. Both can use the Force, although the Jedi Order is neither twin’s birthright — the girls’ early childhood was spent in a coven of witches on Brendok,

“Ahsoka” Composer Kevin Kiner on Scoring Jedis, Sith Lords, and Space Whales

There are few people alive with more Star Wars experience than composer Kevin Kiner. While Kiner would be the first to point out that the legendary John Williams has him beat, when it comes to the number of minutes—and hours—of music composed for a galaxy far, far away, Kiner is a proper Jedi. For more than a decade, Kiner has been working with George Lucas and Dave Filoni to score every season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars and has added to his endless Star Wars credits scroll Star Wars: Rebels,

Ke Huy Quan Talks Drawing from Personal Experience to Play “Loki” Season 2 Standout Ouroboros

Ke Huy Quan was driving when he got a call from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige two years ago. Having just seen Quan’s (eventually Oscar-winning) turn in the record-breaking A24 epic Everything Everywhere All At Once, Feige — with whom Quan had crossed paths on 2000’s X-Men, working as assistant action choreographer in his first job out of college — offered him the role of the quirky,
