Sometimes, you just can’t help but adore Tom Hardy. He seems like the best guy to have a beer with, walk dogs with, do various forms of martial arts with. When you combine all those things with a Sony Pictures Spider-Man villain, you get something…interesting. Sure, maybe “Venom” and it’s sequel “Venom 2” weren’t the greatest films of all time, but they sure were fun to watch. This is why we’re very excited to see Hardy and co back on set working on “Venom 3.” Hardy himself posted a photo celebrating the return, with co-writer and director this time out,…

Is this one of the possible signs of the apocalypse? Cannabis enthusiast and patron saint of the chronic Snoop Dogg is reportedly giving up “smoke.” Which kind of smoke, we’re not sure. This could just mean he’ll no longer be getting his high the old fashioned way. The news came from the Doggfather himself via his X (formerly Twitter) account. Our best wishes to Snoop and his family.

This week has been rife with Marvel Studios rumors, both on the good and bad front. The most prevalent one we keep seeing from sources all over the multiverse map is the impending casting news for the First Family of Comics, the “Fantastic Four.”Today’s big likely-but-maybe-not news is that “The Mandalorian” himself Pedro Pascal COULD very well be playing Reed Richards.We know the casting is “all but done,” and was expected to be revealed sometime in this next week. We’re kinda thinking Thanksgiving, in some kind of family meal themed announcement. But this story is developing, and we’ll let you…

We are VERY excited to share the official trailer for season 2 of Marvel Studios’ animated series, “What If…?.” Taking it’s cues from the classic comics of the same name, this show reimagines tales and happenings from across the MCU multiverse. Expect to see heroes as villains, villains being heroic, and some stories you’re not expecting! You know, like Marvel Studios does “Fury Road,” which we are ABSOLUTELY here for. The first episode will hit December 22nd, with new episodes releasing each day for 9 days. A third season is already on the way, but we’re not sure when we’ll…

Ok, so, we weren’t sure what we were gonna think about Sony Pictures’ upcoming “Madame Web.” And you know what? We’re still not really sure. But, after seeing the first trailer for it, we’re a little more interested in seeing what director SJ Clarkson has in store. Dakota Johnson stars as Cassandra Webb, a paramedic with future-telling abilities. Sydney Sweeney (“Euphoria”) plays Julia Carpenter, who becomes Spider-Woman in the comics, and actually dons the iconic black and white costume in the film. Tahar Rahim plays Ezekiel Sims, villain, who also wears a pretty interesting spider-suit.At present, “Madame Web” has a…

This just in: Ana Nogueira will pen the script for the upcoming DC Studios live-action release, “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.” We’re not quite sure if this script and project will be for a new Supergirl, since so much of the existing DC casting is going the way of Krypton. “We’re excited to be moving forward on this unique take on Supergirl in this beautiful, star-spanning tale,” DC Studios co-head James Gunn said in a post, confirming the news. Nogueria is an actress and writer, who previously wrote a Supergirl script that was meant to be a spinoff from the Ezra…

Fans of sitcom “FRIENDS” are still reeling from the sudden loss of author and Chandler Bing actor, Matthew Perry. Hollywood was quick to offer thoughts of sympathy to Perry’s family and friends. We even got a short statement from the rest of the show’s cast. Completely understandably, it felt very designed-by-comittee. It was safe, it was publicist approved. This morning, Matt LeBlanc who played Chandler’s roommate Joey Tribbiani, posted his own statement. MatthewIt is with a heavy heart I say goodbye. The times we had together are honestly among the favorite times of my life.It was an honor to share…

Something is happening over at Marvel Studios. Again. Still? In a move that makes a lot of sense for how things are shaping up heading into Phase 5, we may not be seeing Kang again. The character was introduced in “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania,” and became a main foil for the variants and TVA in “Loki.” It really did seem like the next chapter post-“Endgame” was going all in on the Conqueror. According to Joanna Robinson, that probably isn’t the case now. The Vanity Fair writer and “MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios” co-author says the powerhouse studio is…

We are SO EXCITED to share thew news that Jim Cameron’s long-rumored-but-finally-confirmed 4K remaster of “The Abyss” is getting a theatrical release. Announced this morning, the 1989 film will be returning to theaters next month. “If you haven’t seen the film before, this is the way to experience it,” Cameron said in the announcement video. “And if you have, you’ll be seeing the film I actually set out to make. With some big surprises not seen in the original released version. I hope you’ll take advantage of seeing The Abyss, my first ocean film, back in theaters.” The screening will be…
