He returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends who accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town.Synopsis: Melody (Sarah Yarkin), her teenage sister Lila (Elsie Fisher), and their friends Dante (Jacob Latimore) and Ruth (Nell Hudson), head to the remote town of Harlow, Texas to start an idealistic new business venture.…

Okay, so…for better or worse, we’re never going to be fully free of “Tiger King.” After the initial documentary took the world by storm, Joe Exotic, Carole Baskin, and co. have become household names. One personality from season 1 isn’t really around in season 2, and we kind of know why now. Mahamayavi Bhagavan Antle, aka Doc Antle, is another exotic animal…aficionado…who owns and operates his own menagerie in South Carolina. You may recall him from “Tiger King” as the pale pony-tailed former associate of both Exotic and Baskin’s. He’s now joining the fray with his very own 3-episode spinoff…

Okay, so, this isn’t the most detailed nor long update, but Millennium Films’ upcoming “Red Sonja” reboot is still happening. And, more importantly, Hannah John-Kamen is still attached to star as the She-Devil with a Sword. We first broke the news back in May, with the announcement of the “Ant-Man and The Wasp” not-a-villain actor would be bringing the character to life. Red Sonja made her first appearance in the pages of Conan #23 back in 1973. She was created by Robert E. Howard, Roy Thomas, and Barry Windsor-Smith. And, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the late great Frank Thorne’s…

There have plenty of times we were envious of Stephen Colbert. His friendship with such incredible filmmakers as Peter Jackson for instance. But perhaps the most recent example- because it’s “Dune” related- has us jealous beyond words.If you’ll recall, Colbert hosted a Q&A with the cast back in 2020. It’s obvious the Frank Herbert seminal science fiction novel is a favorite of Stephen’s, and we can’t blame his fanboy moments at all. We’d probably be doing the same exact thing. But this new example came when Oscar winner Javier Bardem stopped by “The Late Show” to chat. Bardem not only…

The ongoing fallout following the tragedy that occurred on the set of western film “Rust” is far from over. Alec Baldwin, producer and star of the film, as well as the literal smoking gun holder, is once again speaking out. In a new teaser for an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Baldwin adamantly declares he “didn’t pull the trigger” of a gun, which was loaded with live ammunition, which struck and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins, as well as injuring director Joel Souza.”Well, the trigger wasn’t pulled. I didn’t pull the trigger,” Baldwin tells Stephanopoulos. Which of course raises the question…then…

We should be so lucky as consumers of the art form of film to have someone like Guillermo del Toro. Not only is he a truly gifted individual when it comes to his various chosen mediums, but his infectious enthusiasm for monsters and the darker tales is second to none. So, it shouldn’t surprise fans that one project he still has gestating has roots in H.P. Lovecraft.We’re speaking of course about “At the Mountains of Madness.” Written in 1936, it details a doomed expedition to Antartica, where an ancient, abandoned city is discovered. Madness, murder, horror, and more occur. del…

Imagine if you will, a different universe. One in which Sir Patrick Stewart was NOT Captain Jean Luc Picard on “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” and Wesley Snipes WAS Chief Engineer Geordi La Forge. What a world, right? Well, it could’ve happened. According to a single-page document, dated April 13th 1987, Snipes wasn’t the only surprise possible casting choice. Here’s another fun one- “Alien” breakout Yaphet Kotto was considered for the role of Picard. And Rosalind Chao, who would eventually play Chief Miles O’Brien’s wife Kaiko, was almost Tasha Yar. (Reminder that Yar was originally one of the leads of…
