Most people know icon Lynda Carter for playing Wonder Woman on the hit show of the same name in the 70s. It was a network program that was based off the wildly popular DC Comics series. To kick off Pride month, Carter reminded her fans via Twitter that yes, Wonder Woman absolutely is a queer icon. While the comments were mostly positive and supportive, some homophobia did rear its ugly head. One user said “Wonder Woman IS NOT A SUPER HERO FOR GAYS!” Carter corrected the statement by saying “You’re right. She’s a superhero for bisexuals!” and attached a Polygon article…

Filmmaker James Gunn has confirmed Daniela Melchior will have a small role in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.” The pair have worked together before with Melchior’s breakout role as Ratcatcher 2 in “The Suicide Squad.” And, it seems that Gunn is looking forward to collaborating again, considering what he said about the news. He doubled down on the sentiment when he later tweeted, “I hope this is just the second of many projects we’ll work on together.” There had been some rumblings Melchior would play the character of Moondragon. But that just seems to just be the rumor mill, hard…

After some teasing, “The Munsters” director Rob Zombie has confirmed a much-beloved character will appear in his film. Obviously, Zombie is a huge fan of the original “The Munsters” television series. So it shouldn’t come as a shock he’d pull some deep cuts for his take on the family. Zombie announced the character of Zombo will make an appearance! Zombo was originally played by Louis Nye in the 1966 season 2 episode, fittingly titled “Zombo.” In this episode, Zombo is Eddie Munster’s favorite horror host. (Think Crypt Creeper, Elvira, and Joe Bob Briggs.) Eddie ends up winning a contest where…

Following Star Wars Celebration this past weekend, the galaxy far, far away has taken a stand to support a new cast member. Moses Ingram recently joined the “Star Wars” franchise as Reva Sevander in “Obi-Wan Kenobi” on Disney+. While Ingram has received lots of praise, she also got a number of racist comments and messages she shared to her Instagram stories. Some of the examples she provided said things like “You’re days are numbered [sic]” and “You suck loser. You’re a diversity hire and you won’t be loved or remembered for this acting role.” She even put out a video…

Do you like twisted versions of childhood classics? Then director Rhys Frake-Waterfield has the movie for you! His upcoming film “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey” is described as a “horror retelling of the famous legend of Winnie the Poo.” We’re assuming that typo is intentional.  We know “Blood and Honey” will star Amber Doig-Thorne, Maria Taylor, and Danielle Scott. London-based film company Jagged Edge Productions is producing.  Jagged Edge Productions posted about the film on their Facebook page on April 27th, saying the film was shooting along with some stills. The images from that post show masked figures terrorizing…

Fast food giant Arby’s is adding burgers to their menu for the first time in history. Which is surprising, because when people think of quick service restaurants, they immediately think of burgers. With Arby’s cornering the market on roast beef, it was only a matter of time before they set their sights on another classic sandwich. “Boring burgers are a fast-food staple, so Arby’s felt compelled to raise the bar with a Wagyu Steakhouse Burger. Instead of focusing on making billions of mediocre burgers, we’re taking a stance on high-quality meat that deserves to be cooked properly,” Patrick Schwing, Chief…
