FX just released the trailer for “Fargo” season 5, and fans of Dorothy “Dot” Lyon (Juno Temple) are in for a real treat. It opens with the police telling Dot’s husband Wayne (David Rysdahl) that his wife “isn’t who she says she is.” While they speak we are shown a montage of her fending off two would-be home invaders with a variety of boobytraps. While housewives in North Dakota can certainly be crafty, this is a bit more violent than you’d expect from someone putting on such a timid persona. We cut to Wayne’s mother Lorraine Lyon (Jennifer Jason Leigh)…
Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne will be reprising his role as the Emcee in the Broadway production of “Cabaret.” Redmayne originally took on the part in the London production, which garnered him an Olivier Award.

But Redmayne isn’t the only talent returning to “Cabaret.” Fellow Oliver Award winner Rebecca Frecknall, who directed the West End version, will also be coming back. The play is based on the 1951 play “I Am a Camera,” by John Van Druten, which is an adaptation of Christopher Isherwood’s…
We expect superhero movies to be riddled with drama, but the alleged behind-the-scenes antics on “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” are a (sea)horse of a different color. Director James Wan has now addressed the rumors of endless reshoots and on-set kerfuffles. “We probably did seven or eight days [of reshoots],” Wan told Empire Magazine. “Nothing for a movie of this size. It was just spread out because it’s so hard to get your actors back once you’ve finished the initial shoot.” This isn’t the first time Wan has addressed reshoot rumors either. “We have big actors in this movie, and…
Actress Devery Jacobs is best known for playing Elora on FX and Hulu’s “Reservation Dogs.” She recently took to X (formally Twitter) to share some passionate remarks about the portrayal of Osage characters in Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon.” It’s a film based on the true events of the Reign of Terror, which resulted in the murders of at least 60 members of the Osage nation in the 1920s. “Being Native, watching this movie was fucking hellfire,” Jacobs writes. “Imagine the worst atrocities committed against yr ancestors, then having to sit thru a movie explicitly filled w/ them,…
When you think of iconic cars from the 1980s, the DeLorean is probably at the top of the list. Despite its fame from being featured in 1985’s “Back to The Future,” the model is exceedingly rare. This is because the car was only produced between 1981 and 1982, with only 9,000 being made before the company filed for bankruptcy. Earlier this month, an original 1981 DeLorean was found. A score of the century considering it has all its original parts, and the odometer only reads 977 miles! The 42-year-old car was being stored in a barn in Wisconsin where it…

Students at Woodbury University in Burbank, California are hard at work on solving the affordable housing crisis. The architecture students created the first 3D-printed structure to be permitted and built in the city of Los Angeles. This home is 425 square feet and took only 15 months to construct. It was designed as an entry into the solar decathlon, which is a competition encouraging different colleges to create a high-performance structure powered by renewable energy. “It’s a proof of concept that this really can be done and then can be repeated and scaled in a way that has a huge…
Actor Chandler Riggs (“The Walking Dead”) will star in the upcoming horror-comedy “Hacked,” written and directed by Shane Brady. The new film is set to begin production in Los Angeles and Tampa. It has been granted an interim agreement by SAG-AFTRA, so none of the performers are breaking the rules of the union’s ongoing strike. “Hacked” is partially based on a true story when producer Emily Zercher and Brady were hacked in 2021. The first ten minutes of the movie deal with those events. While the rest of its runtime focuses on what they “wish they could have done to…
