It seems as if the on-and-off sweethearts will be based on the “Bride of Chucky” version of…

Several iconic homes on the Warner Bros. Pictures Ranch are in the process of being demolished. Warner Bros. acquired the property from Columbia Pictures in 1990. The tree-lined street also boasts a neighboring park, swimming pool, and brownstone facades. These time-capsule homes are being torn down to build 16 new soundstages, offices, and parking. The area’s distinctive look made it the perfect shooting location in the 60s and 70s for shows like “Bewitched,” “The Partridge Family,” ”Father Knows Best,” “I Dream of Jeannie,” and “Eight is Enough.” This [now] retro look also worked well for more recent shows like “The Middle,”…

In a recent interview, Campbell seems to be putting a lot of those breadcrumbs together. The newest film “Evil Dead Rise” has made no secrete that it will be following in the vain of the 2013 “Evil Dead” remake. At least in the sense that the story is no longer dependent on Campbell playing the perpetual hero,…

It looks like director Louis Leterrier (“The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistence,” “Transporter”) will be sticking with Dominic Toretto’s family. It has just been confirmed that he will be directing the next and final “Fast & Furious” film. Leterrier replaced director Justin Lin on the upcoming “Fast X” last May.

But luckily, that doesn’t doesn’t seem to be the case here. “Louis joined the ‘Fast & Furious’ team seamlessly, with an innate understanding of the franchise that is stronger than ever after two decades,” Universal Pictures…
