Jack Ryan Featurette “A good Jack Ryan story is not just entertaining, it teaches you something about the world that it inhabits,” says co-showrunner Carlton Cuse (Lost, The Strain), who created the show with Graham Roland (Fringe)....

‘Kong: Skull Island’ Concept Art Features An Ape Who Was Almost More Of A Literal King By Ethan Anderton/March 14, 2017 5:30 am EST Kong: Skull Island landed the top spot at the box office this past weekend, and if you took the time to see the action adventure, you were treated to some stunning visuals and incredible monster movie action. Now you can see some of the concept art that inspired the gorgeous cinematography that brought Kong to life, and while many of the images ended up being perfectly recreated in the movie, there are a couple of interesting pieces that didn’t make the cut....

‘Mother!’ Teaser Trailer: Darren Aronofsky’s Newest Film Looks Absolutely Insane By Hoai-Tran Bui/July 31, 2017 7:03 am EST The mother! teaser trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s newest film seemed as cryptic you could get, with garbled, disconnected dialogue playing over a scene of Jennifer Lawrence walking silently through a house. That is, until the last horrifying 10 seconds. It’s a teaser trailer in the truest sense, offering us nothing to make of the film, except for the fact that it looks disturbing as hell....

‘The Man In The High Castle’ Season 2 Trailer: “Everything Will Be Fine” By Angie Han/Nov. 16, 2016 2:00 pm EST The Man in the High Castle Season 2 Trailer Okay, so maybe The Man in the High Castle isn’t the most comforting binge-watch at this point in time. What seemed like an amusingly fantastical premise last year, suddenly feels a lot less distant in a world where our incoming president has earned the enthusiastic approval of actual Nazis....

Chris Evans Heads To ‘Greenland’ For Director Neill Blomkamp’s Natural Disaster Thriller By Ethan Anderton/May 14, 2018 3:00 pm EST Chris Evans has been quite busy with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but his streak as Captain America is seemingly coming to an end after Avengers 4.

There’s snow on the ground (depending on where you live), the stores are packed (maybe not as much since we love our online shopping), and there are all sorts of holiday movies and specials all over TV (though you’re probably just watching your favorites at your leisure thanks to Netflix, Hulu and countless other streaming services)....

Director Gore Verbinski Narrates A Scene From The Overlooked ‘A Cure For Wellness’ By Jack Giroux/Feb. 21, 2017 6:30 am EST A Cure For Wellness hails from a remarkable craftsman. Director Gore Verbinski’s latest has more to offer than beautiful and grotesque imagery. He’s continually heightening, in big and small ways, the film’s unholy atmosphere, as the camera moves smoothly from one creepy room to the next. One of those menacing rooms is the steam bath, where Dane DeHaan’s character first begins to experience what he can’t explain....

First Look: Hong Kong Disneyland’s Upcoming Marvel Ride By Peter Sciretta/March 2, 2017 2:00 pm EST While Disney California Adventure is in the middle of renovating Twilight Zone’s Tower Of Terror in Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout, work is ongoing to bring Marvel into other Disney theme parks around the globe. Of course, an outstanding deal with Universal Orlando prevents Marvel rides from coming to Walt Disney World, but that isn’t stopping the comic book characters from invading Disney theme parks internationally....

Meet Neil Patrick Harris As Count Olaf In ‘A Series Of Unfortunate Events’ Teaser Trailer By Ethan Anderton/Nov. 3, 2016 9:35 am EST The popular book series Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events was already turned into a movie starring Jim Carrey as the dastardly Count Olaf, and it was about as perfect of a portrayal of the character as you could ask for. Unfortunately, the movie wasn’t a big enough hit to warrant a sequel, so now the books are being adapted all over again, this time as a series on Netflix....

Neill Blomkamp’s Next Sci-Fi Film Will Be ‘The Gone World’ By Hoai-Tran Bui/July 31, 2017 3:30 pm EST After temporarily setting aside his film ambitions to focus on his experimental Oats Studios, Neill Blomkamp is set to return to the feature film world to helm an adaptation of the sci-fi thriller The Gone World. Blomkamp is making a faster return to the feature films than I initially thought. It seemed like he was going through some sort of spiritual rediscovery, reminiscing over his missteps with his latest film Chappie and focusing all his creative energy on the short films and experimental projects of Oats Studios....

But whatever numbers those numbers are, the science fiction series Sense8 was not hitting them. The series was cancelled earlier this month following the debut of its second season and the show’s small but extremely passionate fanbase let their voices be heard....

New ‘Rogue One’ Scenes In The Comic Adaptation Flesh Out The Movie’s Story By Hoai-Tran Bui/Sept. 13, 2017 1:30 pm EST Rogue One notoriously had a long and arduous production that resulted in many of the scenes and subplots that appeared in its first trailer ending up on the cutting room floor. While the final film was well-received, the post-production recutting resulted in a sometimes disjointed narrative. While we may never see what Gareth Edwards’s original version of Rogue One with all of its deleted scenes not included on the film’s Blu-ray release, the comic book adaptation of the Star Wars anthology film offers another solution to the missing plot points....

Russell Crowe Responds To Rob Liefeld’s ‘Deadpool 2’ Cable Fantasy Casting By Peter Sciretta/Feb. 27, 2017 12:30 pm EST We know that Deadpool 2 will introduce X-Force’s Cable to Fox’s X-Men cinematic universe and there has been a lot of speculation about who might play the character on the big screen.
