Guns N’ Roses frontman Axl Rose has announced he is adapting GnR’s hit album “Appetite for Destruction,” but not how you’d think. Rose is working with Sumerian Comics to launch the cyberpunk graphic novel series “Axl Rose: Appetite for Destruction.”  “Set in a neon-drenched Paradise City where humans and robots are meant to co-exist, Appetite for Destruction follows Axl Rose, a half-human, half-robot who lives on the fringes, and finds solace in the music of a back-alley lounge singer. When she vanishes under mysterious circumstances, Axl’s search for answers drags him into a deadly conspiracy, one that could decide the…

Just like the price of food and gas, catching a flick is about to get even more expensive. President Donald Trump has announced via Truth Social that he will impose a 100% tariff on any foreign made movies. “Our movie making business has been stolen from the United States of America, by other Countries, just like stealing “candy from a baby.” California, with its weak and incompetent Governor, has been particularly hard hit! Therefore, in order to solve this long time, never ending problem, I will be imposing a 100% Tariff on any and all movies that are made outside…

Every film production has a different level of privacy, some movies we know every single development, others it’s like pulling teeth to find anything out. In 2018, it was announced that Genndy Tartakovsky (“Dexter’s Laboratory”) would be directing an animated feature for Sony called “The Black Knight,” then….silence. Which left many to assume the project got stuck in production hell like so many do. Yesterday, Tartakovsky surprised everyone by sharing a 40-second test animation from “The Black Knight.” Along with the clip the animator explained that this was to try to drum up support for the film being made since…

On September 24th, during Fantastic Fest, it was announced that The Transgender Film Center was partnering with Duplass Brothers Productions to create the Found Footage Feature Fund. This will be a $25,000 grant for trans filmmakers developing independent feature films. After some backlash, co-founder Mark Duplass (“The Morning Show”) felt the need to address these ignorant comments about the trans community.  “For those of you who have responded negatively to this initiative, thank you for confirming the need to support the voices of those who merely wish to exist without discrimination,” Duplass posted on social media. “I’ll see you at…

“Andor” star Denise Gough just confirmed being cast in Greta Gerwig’s “Narnia” film. She can’t spill the beans on which role she will play in the upcoming film, but she did drop a pretty big hint.

The long-running franchise, based on books by Ian Fleming, will be getting a new entry courtesy of director Denis Villeneuve and writer Steven Knight. Once Villeneuve wraps on “Dune: Part Three,” he will begin looking for a “fresh face” for “Bond 26.” He is looking for a relatively unknown male actor from the British Isles to fill 007’s shoes. His criteria rule out popular fan castings such as Timothée Chalamet, Glen Powell, Austin Butler, and Jacob Elordi. Because there is not a single Brit in that…

No, that isn’t some horrific clickbait title. The White House has posted a video of arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) set to the “Pokémon” theme song. Because this country apparently CAN become a bigger joke than it already is. So for several months, ICE has been out in full force arresting alleged undocumented immigrants. Up to and including those who supported the current regime responsible for this. To brag about all these arrests, the White House’s social media accounts are posting increasingly “humorous” boasts, including an AI-generated image (illegally) based on Studio Ghibli mocking Virginia Basora-Gonzalez’s arrest.…
