The Tragedy Of Macbeth Trailer: Joel Coen, Denzel Washington, And Frances McDormand Do Shakespeare A24 By Chris Evangelista/Sept. 21, 2021 9:05 am EST Joel Coen is flying solo with “The Tragedy of Macbeth,” a new take on the Shakespeare classic. While Joel Coen almost always works side-by-side with his brother Ethan, “The Tragedy of Macbeth” has him on his own — although that doesn’t mean the Coen Brothers have had a falling out....

By Hoai-Tran Bui/March 11, 2021 8:30 am EST Here is the synopsis for A Very British Scandal: A Very British Scandal turns this scandal inside out in order to explore the social and political climate of post-war Britain, looking at attitudes toward women, and asking whether institutional misogyny was widespread at the time. As her contemporaries, the press, and the judiciary sought to vilify her, Margaret kept her head held high with bravery and resilience, refusing to go quietly as she was betrayed by her friends and publicly shamed by a society that revelled in her fall from grace....

But that changes this fall when the gang gets back together for a whole new array of wild, stupid, and dangerous stunts in Jackass Forever. Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Chris Pontius, Dave England, Wee Man, Danger Ehren, and Preston Lacy are back in action, and they’re much more mature now....

‘Loki’ Will Explore Alternate Versions Of Marvel Characters, Kevin Feige Teases By Hoai-Tran Bui/May 21, 2021 5:30 pm EST The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been steadily introducing all things multiverse, with little nods to alternate timelines and the like in films like Spider-Man: Far From Home and Avengers: Endgame. But Loki will be the first Marvel title to go full-tilt on multiverse shenanigans, of which there will be a lot, Marvel chief Kevin Feige teases....

‘Mean Girls’ Honest Trailer: One Of The Only Things From The Early 2000s We Should Be Nostalgic About By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 26, 2020 6:00 am EST In 2004, Mean Girls joined the roster of generation-defining high school movies like The Breakfast Club and Clueless. Not only does it perfectly capture the teenage culture of the early 2000s, but it’s also hilariously clever for being adapted from a non-fiction parenting advice book....

‘My Love’ Trailer: A Year In The Lives Of Six Elderly Couples From Around The World By Chris Evangelista/March 19, 2021 5:30 pm EST The South Korean documentary My Love, Don’t Cross That River serves as the inspiration for My Love, a new Netflix docuseries that follows a year in the lives of six elderly couples from around the world. The show moves between Brazil, India, Japan, Korea, the United States, and Spain, and based on the trailer below, it looks like it’s going to make you cry your damn eyes out....

‘Shaft’ Red Band Trailer Asks: Can Ya F***ing Dig It? By Chris Evangelista/June 4, 2019 3:00 pm EST Hey, did you know there’s a new Shaft movie coming out this month? If you didn’t, that might be because the marketing for the movie has been oddly lax. Now, with mere weeks to go, a new Shaft red band trailer is here, giving Samuel L. Jackson a chance to do one of the things he does best: say the F-word a lot....

‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’ Honest Trailer: Something, Something, Mother Boxes By Ethan Anderton/April 1, 2021 6:00 am EST Now that Zack Snyder’s Justice League has been officially released on HBO Max, it’s free for the nitpicking. Because even though the four-hour cut of the DC Comics superhero ensemble improves greatly on the burnt orange tire fire that Joss Whedon delivered a few years ago, it still has many of the same Mother Boxin’ problems....

Using Nostalgia as a Tool Shoe Palace I know that you previously created some E.T.-related artwork for at least one Empire Magazine cover and for an Xfinity campaign. Having already worked on a character that is in some ways limited in terms of expressions and positions, did you find it challenging to do something different and avoid repeating yourself for this new collection? My illustrative hero, Drew Struzan, is kind of synonymous with a lot of the older original E....

Damage Control: Terminator Assistant Director Sticks Up For Christian Bale By Peter Sciretta/Feb. 3, 2009 10:17 am EST You didn’t expect Christian Bale to issue a statement after his tirade against DP Shane Hurlbut got leaked onto the interwebs yesterday, did you? Terminator Salvation assistant director and associate producer Bruce Franklin has now gone on record with E! Online with a proper explanation for what happened – Bale’s outburst was okay because it was the most emotional scene in the movie...

Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam Costume Had All The Fake Muscle Padding Cut Out Warner Bros. By Jeremy Mathai/Dec. 7, 2021 1:44 pm EST Superhero movies are a funny business. Fans will demand that only the most unrealistically buff and unimaginably ripped actors embody all their most favorite heroes, despite the fact that superpowers are inherently divorced from realism and don’t necessarily need to have anything to do with muscle size. Kumail Nanjiani recently went through this himself with his body transformation to portray Kingo in “Eternals” and Robert Pattinson, hilariously enough, sparked all sorts of ridiculous controversy for joking in his own dry, tongue-in-cheek way that he refused to work out for Batman....

Production on the film began in the Fall of 2021 in Montana, so expect to receive more concrete details in the coming weeks and months for a release date sometime in the latter half of 2022 or even in early 2023....

Mattel Developing ‘Uno’ Movie With Rapper Lil Yachty Potentially Starring By Ben Pearson/Feb. 4, 2021 1:30 pm EST The day isn’t over yet, but I can’t imagine there being a more Mad Libs-style headline to come out of the entertainment news world than this one. Mattel Films will team up with rapper Lil Yachty to produce an Uno movie based on the classic card game, with Yachty also “eyeing a starring role” in the film....

Moonfall Trailer: This Is The Wrong Kind Of Moon Landing Lionsgate By Hannah Shaw-Williams/Nov. 1, 2021 11:16 am EST Aliens are so last season. Now, it’s the celestial bodies themselves that are invading in the new trailer for Roland Emmerich’s upcoming disaster movie “Moonfall.” Though Emmerich might not be the most esteemed director working in Hollywood, there’s no denying that his style has come to shape the modern big-budget disaster epic....

Peter Sciretta’s ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Spoiler-Free Review By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 12, 2017 9:30 am EST Star Wars: The Last Jedi left me speechless and shaken. I was not prepared for the “holy s***” shocking turn of events, the underlying emotion, the laugh-out-loud humor, the occasional ballsiness, and the bonkers weirdness. With Rian Johnson at the helm, I knew it was in good hands, but I was surprised to find it might be one of the best looking Star Wars films to date....

Scream’s Marley Shelton Reminisces About A Spooky Phone Call With The Late, Great Wes Craven Dimension Films By Max Evry/Oct. 13, 2021 12:15 pm EST When actress Marley Shelton (“Grindhouse,” “Pleasantville”) was added to the cast of 2011’s “Scream 4” as Deputy Judy Hicks, and subsequently survived the ordeal, it was just assumed that her character was being set up for a role in sequels down the line. Sure enough, she popped up in yesterday’s trailer for the fifth installment “Scream,” and she is now Sheriff Judy Hicks....

Sequel Bits: ‘Evil Dead,’ ‘Coming 2 America,’ ‘Attack The Block,’ ‘Resident Evil,’ ‘Avatar 2,’ ‘Dream House,’ And More By Chris Evangelista/March 28, 2021 9:00 am EST In this edition of Sequel Bits: The new Evil Dead movie will start filming this year. Coming 2 America had to cut a joke referencing the first film because Eriq La Salle couldn’t return. Joe Cornish once again swears that a potential Attack the Block sequel might be headed our way....

Silicon Valley Season 2 Trailer #2: “Synergy Bitches!” By Peter Sciretta/March 23, 2015 6:00 am EST HBO has released the second Silicon Valley Season 2 trailer. The minute and a half-long trailer teases the future adventures of our nerd heroes: Thomas Middleditch, TJ Miller, Zach Woods, Kumail Nanjiani, Martin Starr and Josh Brener, back at work in the dungeon-like darkness of the tech incubator. On April 12th 2015, “this s*** gets real....

Solar Opposites Holiday Special Trailer: ‘Tis The Season For Demented Alien Shenanigans Hulu By Ethan Anderton/Nov. 16, 2021 5:06 pm EST The “Solar Opposites” are celebrating Christmas, baby, even if they have no idea what it means! Later this month, Hulu will release an animated holiday special from the demented minds of “Rick and Morty” co-creator Justin Roiland and series executive producer Mike McMahan (“Star Trek: Lower Decks”). How do you explain a religious holiday that has been commercialized into so many things that have such hollow meanings intended only to sell things people don’t need to a group of aliens?...
