Alita fans (myself included) look for hope in just about every possible way when it comes to an Alita: Battle Angel sequel, but one rumor has officially been shot down by Alita and Suicide Squad star Jai Courtney. In an Instagram post a few months back, Courtney shared an image of himself in a motion […]
While Disney and Marvel dillydally over what to do with Ryan Reynolds and the Deadpool franchise, you can bet he's going to take every bit the advantage of that momentum with other projects. Aside from helping to make Pokémon Detective Pikachu (2019) a massive success, the actor is going back to the video game well again […]
Josh Brolin was provided a rare opportunity appearing in multiple Marvel films across different studios playing different characters. For the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he played galactic megalomaniac Thanos leading up to the final two recent Avengers films Infinity War (2018) and Endgame (2019). In between the movies, he was also adversary-turned-ally Cable in Deadpool 2 […]
Megan Fox has some ideas as to why her feminist horror-comedy Jennifer's Body (2009) failed with critics and audiences but maintains its cult classic status. The actress spoke with the director and host Eli Roth for his "History of Horror: Uncut" podcast to discuss the film. "It's a nice circle," Fox said. "I didn't expect […]
Well, my dears, there goes most of 2020. We've been saying since April that it was probably best if we washed our hands of this year and just tried again next year, and it looks like Disney is very much taking that into account. We heard rumors that Disney was going to do another release […]
Sometimes you don't get what you signed up for. Or at least that appears to be the case when it comes to Death on the Nile. Murder on the Orient Express was one of those movies that made a lot more money than anyone expected. That box office, combined with the runaway success of Knives Out, meant […]
Murder on the Orient Express was one of those movies that ended up doing a lot better than anyone thought it would. It was made on a modest budget of $55 million and went on to make over $350 million at the worldwide box office. This movie doing well, followed by Knives Out last year, is […]
While it's been over two years since Deadpool 2's (2018) release, one of the major complaints of the film was the "fridging" of Vanessa, played by Morena Baccarin, the term typically coined in comics as "killing the love interest" to further the main hero's story. This is often viewed as lazy and sexist because it's […]
Since it's still a "novel" idea some can't stomach that other people can have a difference of opinion politically, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) is pitching an "inconceivable" hissy fit over a reunion for The Princess Bride (1987) in a Q&A fundraiser event stumping for Democrat presidential frontrunner Joe Biden. "Do you hear that Fezzik? […]
The back and forth "rivalry" between Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds and Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman is as strong as ever. A fan-made Deadpool 3 poster from Séptimo Mundo has more Easter Eggs than you can shake a stick at. The faux poster has the Merc with the Mouth holding on a bottle of Aviator Gin […]
The New Mutants is one of those movies that was shot at one location, and that one location is the Medfield State Hospital. If you were watching The New Mutants this weekend and thought that the scenery looked familiar, Shutter Island was also shot on location at this Massachusetts historic location. While this movie isn't a […]
When it comes to the leading lady of The New Mutants we get something we unfortunately don't get to see very often. Dani Moonstar aka Mirage is a queer Native American played by relative newcomer Blu Hunt. Bleeding Cool got the chance to speak to hunt about what it means to bring a queer woman of […]
It's been a long and rough road for The New Mutants to get to the big screen. At first, it looked like it was going to be the quick and dirty X-Men movie that was shot in very quickly and didn't have a very long turnaround. Instead, the movie ended up getting delayed over and […]
It's always hard for everyone involved with a project to see it repeatedly delayed, but for The New Mutants and Blu Hunt, it was another level of, well, irritating. The "will it/won't it" nature of the business and the fact that this troubled production is so public it's very hard to avoid. The movie is finally out […]
The New Mutants finally made it to the big screen this weekend after three long years and many delays for a bunch of different reasons. The movie is looking to bring in around $8 million its opening weekend, which at any other time would have been terrible, but we're in a pandemic, so it's all […]
Joss Whedon has been very open about the debt Buffy The Vampire Slayer owed to the X-Men, including Kitty Pryde, the New Mutants and the X-Men: Dark Phoenix storyline. Well. the New Mutants movie does a lot to pay that back. Both being owned by Fox, pre-Disney deal, may have helped this along a bit. […]
As audiences make the personal decision about whether or not they are going to go see The New Mutants this weekend it's going to be interesting to see how audience versus critical reactions is going to be. This is an adaptation of the classic Demon Bear storyline and during the virtual press conference director Josh Boone talked about […]
Before he was directing The New Mutants or The Stand director Josh Boone brought to life a New York Times bestseller by John Green called The Fault in Our Stars in 2014. On a budget of a mere $12 million dollars, it went on to make over $300 million at the worldwide box office. We got the chance to […]
Disclaimer: We are currently in the middle of an ongoing pandemic in the United States, where this writer is based. Our government was slow to act, and because of that, our numbers are still very high. A movie theater is not a safe place to be because people will be taking off their masks to […]
The New Mutants has had a bit of a rough roading making it to the big screen. The movie was shot three years ago and then sat in the vault unfinished at Fox and Disney for a long time. Bleeding Cool got the chance to speak to director Josh Boone about how they didn't even […]
