Rian Johnson recently shared on the Awards Radar podcast that he constantly receives story ideas for future mystery films, but he always declines them. It’s not that the ideas are bad, he simply prefers to write his own original stories. He encourages people with good ideas to develop them themselves, rather than pitching them to him.
DC and Infinity Studio just unveiled a striking preview of their Darkseid collectible, based on Zack Snyder’s version of the character. Fans can now pre-order a huge, life-size bust of Darkseid for $5,599. This impressive statue is massive, measuring approximately 4.5 feet in height, width, and 3.4 feet in depth.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the next Paranormal Activity movie will be a fresh start for the series. The first film debuted in 2007 at several film festivals before Paramount picked it up, intending to create a more polished version of the original low-budget movie. After editing and adding new scenes, Paranormal Activity was released in 2009, telling the story of a couple who filmed unsettling events happening in their home.
The film features a screenplay by Reginald Rose, who was nominated for two Oscars (known for 12 Angry Men). It stars screen icons Richard Burton (Where Eagles Dare), Roger Moore (Live and Let Die), and Richard Harris (A Man Called Horse) as a group of older mercenaries. They’re hired by a rich businessman for one last, dangerous job: to gather and train a team of commandos, parachute into a troubled African country, rescue the ousted President from a heavily guarded prison, and escape through the military-controlled airport, eliminating anyone who tries to stop them. The mission itself will involve killing, but surviving the escape might be even harder.
With so many streaming options available, especially on Netflix, there’s plenty to watch. As Netflix prepares for the holidays with feel-good Christmas movies like Champagne Problems and A Merry Little Ex-Mas, now is a great time to enjoy something lighter. If you’ve already finished the first part of the new Stranger Things season, try Emily in Paris – it’s pure, unadulterated fun and doesn’t pretend to be anything else.
As is typical with films from NEON, very little information about this movie has been made public, though the studio has offered a brief description of Alpha.
The first two seasons of Percy Jackson and the Olympians have brought a large cast of characters to life, including Greek Gods, demigods, and mortals. While staying true to Rick Riordan’s books with many key scenes, Season 2 also expands the world by introducing new characters and deepening the mythology. The show draws heavily from Greek myths, offering fresh takes on the ancient Gods, their relationships, and the demigod children they have.
I’ve said before that Jag deserves a spot on Survivor. If he played, he could make history as the first person to win Survivor, The Amazing Race, and Big Brother. But would he even want to? He recently told Parade how open he is to the idea.
During a recent press event for the new movie, Alcock, who plays Kara Zor-El/Supergirl, shared that the most challenging scene to film involved David Corenswet, confirming he will appear in the movie as Superman.
Tom King and Bilquis Evely have delivered something really special with Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. It’s not your typical brightly colored Supergirl story; this one’s got some serious emotional weight. We see Kara Zor-El through the eyes of Ruthye, a woman seeking revenge for her father’s murder, and honestly, Kara isn’t exactly the hero you’d expect – she’s struggling with her own demons. What starts as a quest for vengeance quickly becomes a sprawling, intergalactic journey, but it’s driven by something deeper than just doing what’s right. For Kara, it’s about confronting her own past, the loss of Krypton, and the memory of her father. It’s a surprisingly mature take on the character, and it really resonated with me.
