Although nothing is set in stone, Quentin Tarantino is open to the possibility of Kill Bill 3 as his next film. According to reports, the director responded “Why not?” when asked if the third installment in the Uma Thurman-led saga could be up next. Tarantino has not finalized anything as of writing, but has shared in the past that Kill Bill 3 is “in the cards.” He revealed in 2019 that he has an idea for the movie but wants to ensure that the story of Beatrix Kiddo isn’t ridiculous. “Because I wouldn’t want to just come up with some cockamamie adventure. She doesn’t deserve that. The Bride has fought long and hard and now I have an idea that could actually be interesting,” he said. Earlier this year, Tarantino also told the Joe Rogan Experience that casting Thurman and her daughter Maya H...
Warner Bros. has now issued an official statement in response to recent allegations made by former Batwoman actress Ruby Rose regarding unsafe and hostile work environments during the production of the show. “Dear CW… Enough is enough,” Rose wrote on Instagram in a series of stories yesterday specifically addressing Warner Bros. Television chief Peter Roth, showrunner Caroline Dries and producers Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schecter. “I’m going to tell the whole world what really happened on that set. I will come for you so what happened to me never happens to another person again. And so I can finally take back my life and the truth. Shame on you.” Explaining her side of the story, she revealed that she had sustained multiple injuries on set, including a spinal one that required surgery,...

Marvel Studios has officially held its premiere for the much anticipated Eternals and early critic reactions have begun to pour in. Since Marvel announced that Chloé Zhao would direct Eternals critics and fans alike have voiced their opinions on the interesting choice. The studio, which has been known to stick to a formula when it comes to its box-office films, has proved that they were willing to take a chance Zhao to go a non-conventional route for a superhero film. In a previous Variety interview, Marvel president Kevin Feige spoke about Zhao’s vision for the film, sharing that she “was really fighting for practical locations.” When speaking about the Eternals sample reel, Feige said “This is right out of a camera; there’s no VFX work to this at all!” He added, “It was a beautiful sunse...

According to reports, Denis Villenueve’s adaptation will be premiering on the streaming platform on October 21 instead of October 22 — the film’s actual release date in the U.S. HBO Max will release Dune on the same day as the preview screenings in theaters, allowing subscribers to watch the sci-fi epic just as early as moviegoers.

In anticipation of the upcoming Scream installment, Paramount has now released a new featurette detailing how Ghostface‘s iconic mask came to be. Viewable above, the minute-long clip features the original film’s writer Kevin Williamson explaining how the production team first came across the mask and why they decided to adopt it into the movie. “No one could agree on a mask and I remember we were in a location scout, and we found Ghostface,” recalls Williamson. “It was in a box of stuff in a garage that we were location scouting in, and we asked the owner if we could take it because Wes [Craven] immediately looked at it and said, ‘This is like the famous Scream painting.’ And so we took that to our production and we said, ‘Riff on this and see if you can make something like this.’ The...
In many ways, adapting a beloved franchise for television is a thankless task. You’re often working with an unwieldy source material (be that a comic book, video game, or novel) that doesn’t easily translate into the episodic structure of TV. Plus, you’ve got to grapple with the high expectations of the fans — and their unmitigated fury if you mess it up. And it’s hardly a guaranteed win: for every Walking Dead, Watchmen, or Game of Thrones, there’s those that fizzle or flop, like Shadow and Bone, The Alienist, or, indeed, the much-hated final series of Thrones. Despite that, three of the giants of the streaming industry — Netflix, HBO, and Amazon — are betting on a trio of new re-workings of beloved franchises. Next month, Amazon launches The Wheel of Time, a sprawling, high-fantasy epic ...

Netflix is changing up the way it ranks its most popular shows. The adjustment was explained in a recent letter from the company to its shareholders. The streaming platform has historically based its rankings on the completion of at least the first two minutes of a show or film in the first 28 days following its debut. At last month’s Code Conference, however, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos shared new data that ranked the company’s top series and films according to their total viewed hours rather than according to the two-minute metric. In comparison, the two standards produced slightly different lists of what could be considered Netflix’s most popular offerings. Ranking content formulated on most-viewed hours will likely yield a more accurate look at what viewers are streaming, given that ma...
Danny DeVito has officially joined the cast of Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures and Rideback’s Haunted Mansion reboot. Not a lot of information regarding the veteran actor’s character is known, except for the fact that he will play “a smug professor.” This role marks DeVito’s first big-screen studio performance since 2019’s Jumanji: The Next Level and he will star alongside LaKeith Stanfield, Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson and Rosario Dawson.
