King Kong Vs Godzilla was supposed to come out last week, and while we are all sad it didn't it was probably a good thing with everything going on. That is a film that needs to be seen on the big screen. Not unlike the scene we are going to revisit today. Peter Jackson's version […]
The Batman is well into filming right now, and while the plot details are under wraps, the cast is out there talking. Peter Sarsgaard is one such cast member, and people have speculated that he may be playing Harvey Dent/Two Face. His comments on The Late Show With Steven Colbert recently will only fan those […]
The Batman is filming right now, an as they do more and more of the cast will be announced and today we know two more who will join Robert Pattinson in Gotham. Max and Charlie Carver (Desperate Housewives, Teen Wolf) have joined the cast in unspecified roles. They are twins, so my money would be […]
All the pieces came together on Matt Reeves' The Batman with filming underway. Warner Bros revealed what roles every principal actor plays. Let's start what was already known. "Batman" – The Latest Generation Robert Pattinson is the newest Caped Crusader as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Zoë Kravitz plays the villain and occasional antihero Selina Kyle/Catwoman. Paul Dano […]
Sooner or later, there was always going to be a new television version of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol for the Christmas season. The story hits all the right notes for the BBC: a ghost story at Christmas and a sentimental story about a sad, angry man whose heart is opened. This new co-production between […]
The cast of The Batman continues to grow. This movie has been a bit of a mess going through two different directors and eventually needing to sign on a new guy to play Batman. Now it seems like the movie might actually happen and with a 2021 release date, they need to get production going sometime […]
Venom fans will have another familiar face returning in Michelle Williams, who played Eddie Brock's (Tom Hardy) ex Anne Weying for the sequel. Williams joins Hardy, new director Andy Serkis, and Woody Harrelson for the Sony film. Williams spoke to Yahoo about her film After the Wedding when the subject of the Marvel franchise came […]
It turns out that Tom Hardy did jump the gun when it comes to revealing who is going to be directing Venom 2. There was a shortlist going around that including Travis Knight, who directed Bumblebee, and Rupert Wyatt, who directed Captive State, but it seems that the third name is the one that came […]
When Venom came out last year Sony Pictures were likely crossing their fingers, toes, and making offering some prayers that the movie would do well. It was the foundation or at the least the first, of their new line of Spider-Man adjacent movies and if it bombed then it could sink a whole bunch of […]
Black Panther had some of the best Marvel Legends figures in last years wave from the film, and now a second wave is hitting stores in force. Featuring some of the figures left out of the first wave, it also features two of the best Marvel Legends figures that you can hope to add to […]
Amusing to see Sir Patrick Stewart returning to the realm of swords and magic as the wizard Merlin in the upcoming 20th Century Fox film, The Kid Who Would Be King. (If you were unaware, Stewart appears in 1981's classic Excalibur as Lord Leondegrance, father of Guenevere.) A new trailer for the young adult adventure […]
It would appear that Peter Jackson and Andy Serkis are pairing up again, at least when it comes to the Mortal Engines panel during New York Comic-Con (NYCC) next week. It was announced this morning that Serkis will be moderating the panel all about Christian Rivers' upcoming film, as well as a world premiere of the first 8 […]
Back in the day of A Bug's Life and Antz, having two films cover roughly the same story/setting wasn't such a strange and rare occurrence. We were reminded of this when Andy Serkis announced his plans for a live-action/CGI version of Rudyard Kipling's classic The Jungle Book, called Mowgli, coming hot on the heels of Jon Favreau's Jungle Book. Andy Serkis, of course, […]
To celebrate Black Panther coming out this week and T'Challa being so frigging awesome in general, I will be giving you Five Days of Black Panther to build up to the film's release. Each day, I will be covering a different era and creative team of Black Panther (today will be covering two, technically) starting […]
Andy Serkis has an adaptation of The Jungle Book coming out next year. It's going to star a cast of real people and motion capture, which isn't surprising considering that Serkis is both directing and starring in the film. The movie was pushed back after Disney's animated version became a huge hit, but it's slated […]
Next up on the MCU slate is Black Panther, the solo story of the Wakandan prince-turned King we first met in Captain America: Civil War. The amount of excitement around this film is just unreal, and we can't wait to experience what director Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale, Creed) has created. Today, Marvel (and the cast) released 7 new […]
Ahmed Best, the actor behind one of the greatest characters in cinematic history, Jar Jar Binks, helped to pioneer the field of motion capture with his bombad performance in critically acclaimed movies such as Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. But when Wired and Andy Serkis ignored Binks' achievements in a feature on the history of […]
If there's one thing that the trailer for Marvel Studios' Black Panther shows us, it's that a revolution is bigger than any one man; and in the newly released poster, we're introduced to those who will stand by King T'Challa's/Black Panther's side for the sake of Wakanda…and those who will do whatever it takes to tear […]
The Marvel Universe is about to learn in a very big way that the "quiet, friendly" African nation of Wakanda is a global (and universal) force to be reckoned with; and as the newest trailer for Marvel Studios' Black Panther makes clear, King T'Challa's/Black Panther's revolution isn't going to be televised…it's going live! Following-up on […]
We were lucky enough to have the privilege to sit down with Andy Serkis during San Diego Comic Con this year. We talked about several things, but mostly about the absolutely incredible revamping of the Planet of the Apes series. Andy loves what he does, and War for the Planet of the Apes is a testament to […]
