‘Captain America: Civil War’ Visual Effects Reel Shows Off Black Panther’s CG Suit & More By Ethan Anderton/Sept. 29, 2016 5:00 am EST Just last week we learned that the suit that Chadwick Boseman wears as Black Panther was created entirely in post-production by visual effects. Directors Anthony & Joe Russo confirmed that the look they wanted the suit to have on camera simply wasn’t possible to create practically without having a suit that would have been much more torturous than the suit that was worn on set (which was already rather inconvenient to wear, especially in the hot heat of Atlanta, Georgia where much of the movie was shot)....

It’s been a long, twisted, and bloody road for the clones — who I often forget are all played by the infinitely talented Emmy Award winner Tatiana Maslany — who have for four seasons been fighting against DYAD, the shadowy science corporation that created them, the religious extremist group the Proletheans, and themselves....

‘The Yellow Birds’ Review: Alden Ehrenreich Devastates In Thoughtful Iraq War Drama [Sundance] By Angie Han/Jan. 23, 2017 2:00 pm EST But The Yellow Birds is far more than an acting showcase for Ehrenreich’s talents, and would deserve to be seen no matter what big franchises its stars were doing next.
