Few filmmakers have as distinguished a resume asRidley Scott, who has helmed some of the most memorable sci-fi and period films of all time. He’s the visionary creator behind theAlienfranchise, which has altered the history of science fiction, and he even directed some of the most notable hits ever, such asBlade RunnerandGladiator. Scott has teamed up with a large catalog of stars over the years for projects in many genres, but there are a few things he hasn’t had the chance to tackle… yet....

While it’s always great to talk with actors about the making of a series, if you want to find out how and why the big decisions were made, you need to speak with the showrunner. After all, the showrunner is the one that is directly involved in every aspect of the production — from casting, writing, picking directors, working with the studio on budgets, deciding storylines, and so much more....

After years of milking his alpha-male image via the risibleExpendablesfranchise and comedies best left forgotten (i.e.Grudge Match),Sylvester Stalloneis currently riding high again thanks to his admittedly excellent work inRyan Coogler’s brilliantCreed. Sure, it’s a role he’s been applying lacquer on for much of the last four decades, but his presence in the role remains potently endearing and convincingly wise when bounced off ofMichael B. Jordan’s titular character. The actor has a few big-screen gigs lined up in the wake of his upswing, and on top of these performances, he’s now taking on a brand new challenge: television....

With those jet-black pigtails and that iconic death stare,Wednesday Addams is an instantly recognizable goth girl icon. First appearing inCharles Addams’comic strip,The Addams Family,Wednesdayhas been an infamous name since the ’30s. And Wednesday’s woe is back in full force with Netflix’s latest adaptation. From the mind ofTim Burtonand created for television byMiles MillarandAlfred Gough,Wednesdaymay be a brand-new version of our favorite goth girl, but it has certainly got big shoes to fill....

After an unforgettablehitof a first season, Tubi has confirmed that they’ll be renewing their adult animated comedy series,The Freak Brothersfor a second season. The eight episode follow up is slated to debut on the streamer in December with its entire A-list lineup of vocal talent returning. That’s right! Not only will audiences be treated to another wacky and marijuana smoke filled season, but they can also expect to have the same top tier vocal performances that helped make the first season the knock-out that it was....

If I were not a film critic,The Nutcracker and the Four Realmsis probably a movie I would never see. The ads have been unconvincing, I’m not a die-hardNutcrackerfan, and it looked like overblown CGI spectacle. But the marketing has done the movie a disservice and I was rather taken byLasse HallströmandJoe Johnston’s film. They’ve made a solid adventure movie for kids that’s not afraid to be weird, poetic, bombastic, and earnest....

Back in 1922, German Expressionist filmmakerF. W. Murnauwanted to make his own horror picture based onBram Stoker’sDracula. BecauseDraculawas copywritten material, Murnau and company were forced to change the character’s names, and so Count Dracula became Count Orlok (Max Schreck). Of course, that changed nothing, and, after a lawsuit by Stoker’s heirs, Murnau’sNosferatu(sometimes titledNosferatu: A Symphony of Horror) was ordered to be destroyed. Miraculously,the film managed to survive, and we’ve come to see it asthe classic, quintessential vampire picture....

The Matrixis one of the films that made cinematic history. In addition to inspiring a wave of action films in the early 2000s, includingUnderworldandEquilibrium, it helped launch the second act ofKeanu Reeves' career. It also apparentlyhelped save a Warner Bros. executive’s job, according toLilly Wachowski. Like any successful film,The Matrixwould receive sequels in the form ofThe Matrix Reloaded,The Matrix Revolutions, andThe Matrix Resurrections. WhileThe Matrix ReloadedandThe Matrix Revolutionswere box office hits, reception from critics and fans was mixed — especially when it came to howThe Matrix Revolutionsended the trilogy....

Cassidy Timbrookshas pulled back the curtain onreality TVwith a shocking confession – she was coached through her experience on Season 26 ofThe Bachelor. For some viewers, the idea of coaching could undermine the show’s carefully maintained illusion that contestants are genuinely looking for love. ButThe Bacheloris an environment designed to manipulate and disorient,to wring dramatic moments out of its cast, often at their expense. So it makes perfect sense to train –a player must understand the show’s formula and producer tactics to successfully navigate the game....

When it comes toThe Walking Dead, I am ride-or-die. It has not always been an easy show to love–or even like–but I have watched nine seasons and I’m not going to back out before the tenth. When it’s good, it isreallygood. When it’s bad, it is like watching paint dry. I still haven’t decided if the good is worth sitting through the bad, but I’m in it for the long haul....
