When Barbie was first in talks, audiences were only provided with cryptic teasers about it, like its lead actress Margot Robbie calling it “something totally different.” The next Mattel film that’s making us scratch our heads is Barney. It's mainly that we don’t even know what it’s going to be about. After the Daniel Kaluuya-produced movie was just recently teased again, I’m more confused than ever about what we’re supposed to expect.All we really know about the live-action Barney movie so far is that it’s an upcoming Daniel Kaluuya-produced movie...

Sometimes actors will take a gig like within the franchise of James Bond movies solely on the strength of the material. Casino Royale star Mads Mikkelsen counts as one such person, as the man who played the dastardly Le Chiffre didn’t know how "big" of a deal 007 was when he landed the part. Even stranger is the fact that he didn’t learn the truth until the London premiere of the 21st Bond film. Mads Mikkelsen recently spoke at the Zurich Film Festival (via Variety), where he shared a whole bunch...

Spooky season is rolling right along, and a week after the arrival of Kevin Greutert's Saw X, audiences everywhere have another horror franchise title to experience with David Gordon Green's The Exorcist: Believer. That being said, the two stories surrounding the two movies couldn't be more different. While Saw X arrived in theaters riding a wave of positive buzz and found immediate box office success thanks to its low production budget, The Exorcist: Believer has received mostly negative responses from critics and had a lower-than-expected opening weekend.Check out the Top...

Black filmmakers have experienced great success in Hollywood that's somewhat reminiscent of the era of prominence that occurred during the 1990s and early 2000s. However, success hasn’t erased any of the adversity many African Americans in the industry have faced since Tinseltown’s early days and continue to go through today. Film and TV director Ava DuVernay has experienced both sides throughout her storied career. After premiering her latest film, Origin, at the Venice Film Festival, DuVernay explained why so few Black filmmakers present their movies at famous film festivals. Ava DuVernay...

Gareth Edwards’ first movie since Rogue One may not be another Star Wars movie, but The Creator has some of a galaxy far, far away in its DNA. Not only is it the Rogue One director’s first movie in seven years, it also includes some fun nods to the 2016 movie… that is, if you look hard enough. The Creator VFX Supervisor Jay Cooper has a deep history with the Star Wars universe given he’s been with Industrial Light & Magic since 1998 and had a hand in past films all...

It’s a good time to be a horror fan. The genre has been thriving for years now, and is showing no signs of slowing down. Some of the best horror movies returned with new sequels, including the torture porn property Saw. The latest installment Saw X has been getting praise as the best movie of the entire franchise, but fans are crazy for sleeping on another sequel. Someone cue the theme music.Tobin Bell’s Jigsaw has returned to the big screen (as well as the franchise itself) in Saw X. The...

Jon Hamm is a TV and film actor who doesn’t shy away from looking handsome. His square shoulders and jaw can’t hide from the camera when he’s in projects like Mad Men or Million Dollar Arm, as well as his best random cameos. On the other hand, Hamm doesn’t always find being called “handsome” by his co-stars as a compliment.Beautiful women face the threat of not being taken seriously as an actress when they’re cast solely as sex figures. Handsome men like Jon Hamm are in the same boat when...

*NSYNC was at the height of pop music at the turn of the 21st century, with Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick and Lance Bass dancing and harmonizing their way to four albums and worldwide fame. Nothing good lasts forever, though, and a year after the group released Celebrity — their final album to date — lead singer Timberlake decided to leave *NSYNC and pursue a solo career. Now Fatone is opening up about what happened between the bandmates. And while he insists that he doesn’t resent the...

Although the MonsterVerse has been expanding into TV recently with the animated series Skull Island (which can be streamed with a Netflix subscription) and the upcoming live-action show Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (which Apple TV+ subscribers will be able to access), it won’t be too much longer until this franchise returns to its cinematic roots. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will pick up where 2021’s Godzilla vs. Kong left off, with the two title monsters now poised to join forces rather than fight each other again. Ahead of this...

Meghan Markle’s impact on pop culture can not be overlooked. The story of an American girl falling in love with a British prince and then becoming royalty made many swoon, as it resembled something of a Disney fantasy. Now some fans think that the newest Disney movie Wish may have been influenced by the Duchess of Sussex. The animation studio recently released a trailer for their new film Wish, which saw the introduction of a new female character named Asha. Fans seem to think she looks like Markle, and honestly,...

It’s somewhat hard to believe, but it’s already been over a year since a verdict was reached in Johnny Depp and Amber Heard’s defamation trial. The ruling was largely in Depp’s favor, as Heard was found guilty on three counts of defaming her ex-husband. Depp was found liable for one count of defamation though was also awarded millions of dollars in punitive and compensatory damages. The Pirates of the Caribbean actor can credit much of his success in the courtroom to his lawyer, Camille Vasquez, who was a key player...

 The Mission: Impossible franchise exists mainly so that Tom Cruise can risk his life doing insane stunts. Most of the things that we see Ethan Hunt do on screen, like scale sheer buildings and riding motorcycles off of cliffs, are things we’d never really see real people do, but some of the character's activities are, by comparison, quite normal, so there are people who can judge just how good a sniper Tom Cruise and Rebecca Ferguson actually are. In a new video for Insider a professionally trained Army Ranger sniper, Nicolas...
