Shining Girls Actor Wagner Moura Talks About The Electric Vibe On Set [Interview] Apple TV+ By Ben Pearson/April 29, 2022 1:30 pm EST The “troubled journalist” archetype is common enough to make your eyes roll out of your head, but when a role like that is being played by Wagner Moura (“Narcos”), suddenly it’s not quite as irritating. Moura has a magnetic quality as a performer, so even when he’s playing a disheveled, drunken, past-his-prime reporter who’s barely keeping his life together, he’s able to breathe life into tired tropes and keep viewers interested and engaged....

Into the Shrek-verse “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” will be the second DreamWorks animated movie of 2022 to blend animation styles after “The Bad Guys,” taking a leaf out of the “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” playbook. “The Last Wish” looks to borrow more than that, though. The new trailer opens with Puss battling a giant, moss-covered monster, seamlessly blending 2D and 3D animation techniques, storybook textures, shots animated at different frame rates, and even comic book-style sound effect graphics in a way that recalls so many of the visually-astonishing action scenes from “Spider-Verse....

The Friday The 13th Scene Jason’s Actor Refused To Film Paramount Pictures By Anya Stanley/Jan. 14, 2022 8:44 am EST When a stuntman-actor over six feet tall gives you notes on what his deadly character would or wouldn’t do, you listen. That’s just what director Rob Hedden did on the set of “Friday The 13th Part 8: Jason Takes Manhattan,” the 1989 sequel that sees Jason go for a light boat ride on the aptly-named S....

What’s in a name? Paramount+ Not to belabor the point, but this “Halo” series takes place in a separate and standalone timeline (referred to as the Silver Timeline) from the actual games and novels in the franchise. In that light, any explicit references to aspects from the expanded universe should be treated as their own thing entirely (such as Soren originating from one such novel but reimagined entirely for the purposes of the show), as opposed to a direct adaptation....

The John Sayles Jurassic Park 4 script Universal Pictures In the early 2000s, after several writers came in and attempted to get a version of “Jurassic Park 4” off the ground, John Sayles was recruited to have a crack at it. Known for writing monster flicks such as “The Howling” and “Alligator,” as well as the thriller “Lone Star,” Sayles worked on the film sometime around 2003 or 2004.

Why Samuel L. Jackson’s Jurassic Park Character Never Got The Death Scene He Deserved Universal Pictures By Mike Shutt/May 2, 2022 12:22 pm EST Rarely do I find jump scares to be an effective cinematic device.

Chip ‘N Dale: Rescue Rangers Is Like Shane Black Remaking Roger Rabbit Disney By Witney Seibold/May 20, 2022 2:00 pm EST Children of the 1990s will likely dig Akiva Schaffer’s new feature film “Chip ’n Dale: Rescue Rangers” for reasons beyond the shock nostalgia. While “Rangers” does indeed lay on the pop culture and animation references thickly and heavily — a keen-eyed Millennial will recognize characters from Eek the Cat to MC Skat Kat — its most comforting aspect is its light, flip tone, and central character conceit straight out of a ’90s Shane Black movie....

Creed III release date and where to watch it Warner Bros. “Creed III” is slated for a theatrical release on March 3, 2023. The film was previously set to enter the ring November 2022, following the holiday release schedule that the two “Creed” films — and most of the “Rocky” franchise — usually stuck to.

There’s no news yet on whether it will eventually make it to streaming, but there’s a chance that it may find its way onto MGM’s burgeoning streaming platform, along with “Creed” and “Creed II....
