While Johnson is excited to finally be putting on that iconic black suit, there’s an even bigger plan at work. “The whole goal of our movie was to set off a larger universe where we were able to introduce the Justice Society of America and then also build from there,” he says. Introducing Black Adam to the DCEU is a big first step–and something Johnson has dedicated over a decade too–he’s also laser focused on the importance of bringing a live-action JSA to the big screen for the first time....

Killing Eve Season 2 Episode 6 In a somewhat concerning choice, Killing Eve pivots to what seems like the new normal: Eve and her team are now working with Villanelle and Konstantin. In some ways, this feels inevitable. But might it also be a death sentence for the tension that keeps the show alive? V does her best to keep the passion going by locking eyes with Eve and murdering someone in broad daylight, and casually negging her throughout, but only time will tell if that will be enough....

As Thomasin McKenzie’s modern girl Eloise comes out of a desolate alley and emerges into the heart of Soho’s nightlife, she spots the biggest signpost imaginable to inform her that she’s no longer in the 21st century. With its marquee the size of several stories, the poster for Sean Connery as James Bond 007 in Thunderball fills the frame. And as filmed from a low over-the-shoulder angle by Wright and cinematographer Chung Chung-hoon, it takes on an astonishingly surreal quality before Wright’s lens spins around a bewildered yet instantly enchanted Ellie....

From the moment the needle drops on the onscreen vintage Dansette record player, Last Night in Soho lands in the world of British pop. The surrealistic ghost story follows fashion designer Eloise (Thomasin McKenzie) as she dreams her way into Swinging London, and the pleasant nightmares of the mod nightlife. Taylor-Joy plays Sandie, an aspiring singer on the cusp of discovery and who haunts Ellie’s dreams. Or is she dreaming?...

“Has any other popcorn flick boasted a more impressive star-studded cast than Ocean’s Eleven? Well, apart from Ocean’s Twelve, Ocean’s Thirteen, and the female-fronted reboot Ocean’s 8, obviously. There was George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Julia Roberts all at the peak of their powers; past and future Oscar favorites Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle, and Casey Affleck; and Hollywood royalty Carl Reiner and Elliott Gould—not to mention a cameo from everyone’s favorite German-American lion tamers Siegfried and Roy....

“There is no greater love than the one between a man and his symbiote. In a new trailer for Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Eddie Brock and Venom are fighting with each other about whether or not Venom can eat people. According to Eddie, when Venom is living in his body, he has to follow his rules. But then again, it’s Venom, so the chances of that happening are slim to none....

“When the Cruella trailer dropped in February, we were suddenly aware of the possibility that there could be a striking resemblance between a Disney villain origin story and a Batman villain origin story. But Emma Stone, who plays the stylish, dog-hating protagonist, says her movie and Joker aren’t all that alike.” Read more at Gizmodo. Few shows are as iconic as Law & Order.

“It’s tempting to think that since 2020 was basically one real-life nightmare after another, the last thing anyone would want to do is engage with fictional horror on top of that. But that would be discounting the positive power of certain horror movies, TV shows, and video games that helped us navigate through the year’s darkest times.” Read more at Gizmodo.

“Science fiction explores out-of-this-world elements and potential futures. This exploration can range from entirely speculative, to hard sci-fi grounded in actual facts. However, there’s something special that happens when an author has a background in the scientific aspects of their novel.” Read more at The Portalist.

“Please don’t shoot the messenger. The Sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has been pushed to spring 2023, Nintendo announced in a brief video today. ‘We previously announced that we were aiming for a 2022 release for this game,’ Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma said. ‘However, we have decided to extend our development time a bit and change the release to spring 2023.

They flee into the woods like lambs breaking out of a slaughterhouse. To be sure these children, these “failed” mutant experiments, are not helpless. It’s a fact that Boyd Holbrook’s grotesque Donald Pierce discovers the hard way. But they are still children, innocent in almost all matters save for that they have been classified as “others” by authorities at large. Seen as nothing more than subhuman, the youngsters are thus being rounded up by big men with even bigger guns....

Lucifer Season 6 Episode 8 “This is the worst idea the doctor has ever had.” It’s the rare episode of Lucifer that moves outside its comfort zone of dead bodies, shady suspects, and puzzling evidence, but “Save the Devil, Save the World” does just that as it hones in on a much bigger problem. The end of the world appears nigh, and no one knows why. While the introspective offering ventures into clip-show territory, the past scenes never feel obtrusive, nor do they stand in the way of fresh, new material....

The Oscar Isaac-led Marvel project (which we hope will go some way to making up for the actor’s previous Star Wars treatment at the Mouse House) has been cloaked in mystery until now, but the first mini teaser trailer for the show gives us tantalizing glimpses at what we’ve got in store. Watch it here: Let’s take a closer look… In Marvel Comics, Marc was once a mercenary for hire, but was left for dead in the desert in North Sudan near the Egyptian border on a mission that went very badly wrong....

Madame Rouge is a lesser known character, like most of the Doom Patrol team. How would you describe your take on her for viewers who are excited for her to join the team? She’s kind of complicated and a little eccentric. She arrives at the manor and she has this very specific mission, but she can’t really remember what it is. She’s fairly enigmatic. You’ve been on a roll with these complex, and in many cases, villainous roles with Missy, Madame Satan, Miranda, and now Madame Rouge, if she follows her role in the comics....

Which makes the modern transformation of the Tom Cruise-led Mission: Impossible movies into something of an action movie miracle. Originally intended to be a potential one-off star vehicle for Cruise, this spy franchise has endured for more than a quarter-century, evolving and expanding with each iteration. Initially a fascinating exercise in big budget studio moviemaking where Cruise would have a different director with a highly stylized vision come in and handle the material in radically different ways, the franchise has lived long enough to see itself become a legend—one of the last bastions among Hollywood tentpoles to hold in-camera stunts and tight, well-structured narratives in high regard....

It’s everywhere, it’s terrifying and it’s preying on our fragile psyches. It’s the sky, the darkness, the woods or just the background in the frame surrounding the people we see in our television shows and movies. It’s where the threat is, or might be – the unknown in which something could suddenly appear at any moment. Negative space can be an essential element of any visual composition, but it’s horror movies that often rely on what you don’t see to make a story work....
