Few tales have stood the test of time like Gaston Leroux’s 1910 novel “The Phantom of the Opera.” This story of longing, love, and alienation has been adapted for the stage and screen countless times. But like Jello, there is always room for more. Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has expressed interest in putting his own spin on the iconic story. “It’s such a classic tale, but I would do it differently,” Del Toro told Inverse. “I have a couple of ideas but for now, I’m going into crime and stop-motion.” Del Toro has always been vocal about his love for…

The “Star Wars” universe is littered with projects that never made it off the ground for countless different reasons. Adam Driver, who played Ben Solo/Kylo Ren, revealed what Steven Soderbergh’s secret project for the galaxy far, far away was. Apparently, the two had been working on a film called “The Hunt for Ben Solo.” And after a promising pitch to creatives at Lucasfilm, Disney top brass cancelled it. “[It was] one of the coolest fucking scripts I had ever been a part of,” Driver said. “But it is no more, so I can finally talk about it.” “I always was interested…
