Stellan Skarsgård’s role in Dune will bring one of fiction’s most menacing villains to the big screen for the first time in over three decades. Given the Baron’s immense size, Skarsgård needed some time in makeup to become Dune's main antagonist. The actor revealed the following about the makeup process:...

7. Shawrelle Berry (Million Dollar Baby)Anthony Mackie is barely even in this Academy Award winning movie, but that doesn’t make his presence any less enjoyable. Clint Eastwood’s Million Dollar Baby is about an over the hill coach, played by Eastwood, who’s training a female boxer, played by Hillary Swank. Mackie is also a boxer, and he’s training to be the best, but he’s a total asshole who gets on everybody’s nerves. Not only that, but he’s the kind of guy who would punch an old man, as he spars with...

There are a number of things to look forward to, including the live-action re-imaginings of some fan-favorite characters, such as Kano, Sonya Blade and Sub-Zero. However, an aspect of the film that most fans are likely most hyped for is the extravagant (and gory) combat. Based on the trailers,...

The Starling - 2021 (Post-Production)Stepping away from TV for a moment, we move into The Starling, an upcoming comedy-drama film on Netflix. According to The Hollywood Reporter, this film follows the story of a married couple who ends up suffering some sort of hardship, which begins to tear the two apart. What makes matters worse is that a starling ends up building a nest in the wife’s backyard, who begins to harass her, and she becomes “comically obsessed” with wanting to kill it. It’s certainly a unique premise, that is...

Of course, it’d be a strange world if Dwayne Johnson wasn’t pumping iron and exercising regularly. The wrestler-turned-actor has been a hulking specimen for his entire professional career, and now that he’s one of Hollywood’s most famous action stars, it’s even more important for him to keep in shape. Granted, with the powers the Wizard Shazam bestowed upon him, Teth-Adam would still be a powerhouse even if he were skinny, but thankfully, the cinematic Black Adam will be physically imposing like his comic book counterpart....

For the longest time, the term “video game movie” was never synonymous with adjectives like good, enjoyable, or even faithful, but that has all changed in recent years with video game movies like Sonic the Hedgehog, Detective Pikachu, and even the Wreck-It Ralph franchise, which even though it’s not based on any specific game, includes a myriad of classic characters. And with the slate of upcoming video game movies and TV shows, it looks like the dark days of the Max Payne, Resident Evil, and Super Mario Bros. adaptations are...

Disney's Magical Express gave guests booking vacations to Walt Disney World the ability to go right from their place to the bus taking them to their hotel, without even requiring them to pick up their bags. The good news for fans of that service is that Mears Connect, which will begin service on January 1, 2022, the day after the Disney Magical Express ends, will still provide many of those services, including luggage handling. However, the one big difference is that while the Magical Express was a free service, according...

The reason being, simply, that the 62-year-old Golden Globe winner is in a lot of really good films, which means a list of the best Kevin Bacon movies would actually take...

Mission: Impossible III was Pegg’s first major non-comedic role. Being a part of the popular franchise alone would be nerve racking but, given all the sources of anxiety he had at that point in time, it makes sense his mini bar would serve as a source of relief for him. In the same interview, Pegg makes it clear he wouldn’t recommend following in his footsteps:...

Dumbledore Vs. GandalfSure, the Harry Potter universe is leading up to Dumbledore vs. Grindelwald’s famed battle within the Fantastic Beasts series, but I’ll do you one better. How about Hollywood gets weird with it and imagines a time and place where Dumbledore and Gandalf were in the same place at the same time and major adversaries? Look, there’s a lot about Dumbledore’s life we still don’t know about, and there’s a possibility he could find a portal to the land of wizards and orcs of Middle Earth. Perhaps he ventured...

In my opinion, Bad Boys remains one of the best comedies of the '90s. As previously mentioned, some of the plot points and jokes haven’t aged well, but that still doesn’t take away from Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s chemistry. The “odd couple” appeal of the film’s two stars and their casual banter made the action-comedy both fun and chaotic. Smith managed to make Mike Lowrey a playboy icon, even inspiring pop culture and music references. Much like buddy comedies such as 48 Hrs. and Wayne’s World, the action-comedy set...

Jeremy Renner said one of his fans found the headshot, and from his own memory, he believes he got the picture taken before he decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue acting. The actor grew up in Modesto, California, which is a small agricultural town in Central California. In the early ‘90s, Renner left his hometown to pursue acting, and first landed 1995’s National Lampoon’s Senior Trip. Here he is in his movie debut:...

Idris Elba describes that, while Concrete Cowboy’s story isn’t based on a true story, the community it portrays is very real. The story touched Elba because Concrete Cowboy highlights the importance of community, and sharing the stories of lesser-known parts of the Black community and experience is essential. Delving into this part of the Black community that might be lesser known to most people might not have been a goal, but it has definitely sparked interest among the Netflix film's viewers....

Following these rumors, there is still going to be a major factor at play: how Spiral does when it's released. If Saw X is, in fact, in active development, it could just as easily be pulled from development if the Lionsgate film does not make a splash with audiences this May. But for the time being, it sounds like Twisted Pictures could be getting a head start and leaning on the side of success, which will surely have a lot of people looking forward to Spiral: From The Book of...
