So, this rumor has a pretty big nugget of truth to it. There is a dancing film currently in the works at Lionsgate, with Jennifer Grey attached to star and executive produce. What no one is really saying is if this untitled dancing film is a direct connection to the seminal 80’s classic “Dirty Dancing.” Although it is heavily implied. No word on if this Lionsgate dancing project is the same one announced waaaaaaay back in 2011 with original Dirty Dancing director Kenny Ortega at the helm, but maybe? All we really know at this time is that this project…

Bless BossLogic. He’s one of our favorite artists, and we always love anytime he posts a new piece. This one in particular is PERFECT, featuring Zendaya as the daughter of Vivica A. Fox’s character from the “Kill Bill” films. If you’re asking yourself why, let us explain. Just last week, Fox went on record as saying she believes that Zendaya would be the perfect choice to play her daughter in a third installment of the Quintin Tarantino franchise. While speaking with NME, Fox said: “I haven’t got any official word [on ‘Kill Bill Vol. 3]. I had a feeling that…

Hard to believe it’s been 20 years since 20th Century Fox’s first “X-Men” film hit theaters. Directed by Bryan Singer and written by Tom DeSanto with singer, this summer film was for some fans an introduction, and for others a live-action adaptation they had been waiting for.It was also, for some of us, a HUGE disappointment. Don’t get me wrong, several of the casting choices were spot on- like Sir Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto, and eventually Kelsey Grammer as Beast as well as Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler- but the rest? Eeeeeeh. This is not to…

Yes, we said season 5a purposely, as this will the be first half of Netflix-saved series “Lucifer.”If you’ll recall, the streaming giant rescued the Tom Ellis-starring series when FOX cancelled it. Based on characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg, this series follows Lucifer, the original fallen angel, who has become dissatisfied with his life in hell. After abandoning his throne and retiring to Los Angeles, Lucifer indulges in his favorite things (women, wine and song) — until a murder takes place outside of his upscale nightclub. For the first time in billions of years, the murder…

Just when you thought the best pairings of films and toys were behind us, [not you, “Battleship,” we’re still holding out for “JENGA,” a film more wooden than the actors in it] Hasbro announces this little gem. Meet new Autobot Maverick! You can see the full gallery of the new Transformer over on IGN’s website here. Maverick is based on a classic F-14 Tomcat, and even comes with a damn volleyball. Seriously, we can’t make this up! If you think it’s odd to have Transformers and “Top Gun” do a joint release, let us remind you that Goose’s son was…

Remember when we told you that the internet was abuzz with a rumor about a “Star Wars: Clone Wars” spinoff series maybe possibly being in the works? Well, if you were excited then about The Bad Batch getting their own series, have we got news for you! Just this morning, Disney+ confirmed that a new animated series all about the notorious Bad Batch IS in happening. The best part? Dave Filoni is involved! Reportedly, the series will follow the elite and experimental clones of the Bad Batch following the end of the Clone Wars. While no voice talent was revealed…

We all need a little something to make us laugh and smile right now, right? And what better way to accomplish that than with a trailer for the upcoming animated “Star Trek” spinoff series, “Star Trek: Lower Decks?” Just released a little while ago, this trailer introduces us to the crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos. Set in the year 2380, the series centers aboard the U.S.S. Cerritos. Crew members Ensigns Mariner (Tawny Newsome), Boimler (Jack Quaid), Rutherford (Eugene Cordero) and Tendi (Noël Wells) are tasked with “keeping up with their duties and their social lives while the ship is being…

Ok so, imagine your dad is part of science fiction film royalty, and you just HAPPEN to find his copy of a 4th draft original “Star Wars” script, complete with Luke Starkiller mentioned on the title page. Yeah. That’s the type of royalty we’re talking about there.Enter legendary special effects master John Dykstra, and his daughter actress Chloe Dykstra’s Twitter post from this morning. Yes, obviously she knows what it is and is being funny with her caption, so don’t go trying to Star Wars-splain her, ok? Just look. LOOK AT IT, ANAKIN. How beautiful. What we wouldn’t give to…

According to former “Roswell, New Mexico” reboot showrunner Carina Adly MacKenzie, UK affiliate ITV decided to cut a “pretty tame” same-sex love scene between two men, but kept a “raunchy” heterosexual scene in the episode. Last month, MacKenzie tweeted her unhappiness and surprise about the cut, going so far as to accuse the network of homophobia.MacKenzie has since departed her position as showrunner on the series, which The CW renewed for a third season. According to The Hollywood Reporter, a source indicates that Warner Bros. Television had to do “damage control” with a foreign distributor, possibly leading to even more…

NBC knew we all needed something to get us through this trying time, and the brilliant notion of a “30 Rock” reunion is just the thing to help. Enter this short promo released ahead of the airing of the special, showing that some things really never change; like Liz Lemon (Tina Fey). Lemon is seen here in a mask, which just happens to sport a photo a mouth in the midst of yelling. Pretty on brand, honestly. This image comes from a brand-new teaser released for the special, which you can see here: Liz Lemon (Tina Fey), Jack Donaghy (Alec…
