Fast Xis one of the biggest blockbuster events of the summer,earning $319 million worldwide in its opening weekend, and the increasingly dedicated fanbase is likely wondering whether there’s a post-credit sequence that sets up what is to come in the apparent conclusion to this saga. While fans will have to wait until about halfway through the credits, thankfully, they won’t have to wait until the very end for an additional scene, as the film features a mid-credits scene, but doesn’t have a scene at the very end....

Well, here’s a bit of a shocker for your Friday morning read.According to THR, HBO is currently closing in on renewals forGame of Thronesseason 7 and 8, with season 6 recently confirmed to premiere on April 24th. Confirmation is expected to come in very soon, but HBO hasn’t made a formal announcement as of yet. This would mark the second time that the HBO series has received the coveted dual-season renewal, following the 2014 announcement that the series would be back for seasons 5 and 6....

With directorGuillermo del Toro’s fairy taleThe Shape of Waternow playing in select theaters, I recently sat down with the brilliant filmmakerfor an exclusive video interview. He talked about when he knewThe Shape of Waterwould be such a special film, why he set the film in 1962, what he learned from early screenings, how he managed to make the movie for under $20 million dollars, what will be on the Blu-ray, why he refused to do a commentary for the first time, and a lot more....

It’s just about that time again! Netflix has announced its lists of what will be coming and leaving the streaming service throughout June 2016, and the news comes with a disappointing reminder. Amongst the titles being added to the streaming service’s library, very few of them, outside of the original series, is worth sitting down to watch seriously, reinforcing the sense that since Netflix got into the original programming racket, they’ve given less and less of a care to the caliber of movies they are adding....

Do you ever feel like if you had a nickel for every time someone says “reboot” you’d be a millionaire, or, worse, kill (or slightly injure, we’re not monsters) the next person that says it? I know I have. Even reboots have reboots. Take the upcomingSuperman. It’s a reboot ofMan of Steel, which was a reboot ofSuperman Returns, the attempt to reboot the classic originalSupermanfilms starringChristopher Reeve. It’s like creativity has been taken to the shed out back andOld Yeller-ed....

Wherever this article finds you within your binging ofMarvel’s Jessica Joneson Netflix, part of you might be wondering just where all the news is for one of the comic book company’s other Defenders,Iron Fist. The last time we reported on any news out of the Living Weapon’s camp, it was to lump it together with the loose schedule of Marvel’s other TV series. WhenKrysten Ritterwas announced as Jessica Jones, withMike Colterset to play Luke cage onJessica Jonesbefore starring in his own series, fans were left wondering ifIron Fistwas still in the works at all....

For my money, the TV event of the year isNicolas Winding Refn’s upcoming Amazon seriesToo Old to Die Young, which starsMiles Teller,John Hawkesand the greatJena Malone, the latter of whom just booked a cool new project that I’ll get to in just a second. Since we share a birth year, I feel like I’ve grown up with Malone, who rarely gets the credit she deserves as an actress. She has been excellent ever since she was just a 14-year-old up-and-comer in 1998’sStepmom, and she continued to impress me at every turn, fromDonnie Darkoto the memorable duo ofSaved!...

The third installment of theAfterfranchise,After We Fell, follows Tessa (Josephine Langford) on a new journey as she moves to Seattle for her dream job, which also takes her away from Hardin (Hero Fiennes Tiffin). With distance and his jealousy complicating things, and the return of Tessa’s father and some revelations about Hardin’s own family adding even more tension, the intensity of their unpredictable relationship is pushed to the limit. During this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, which you may both watch and read, Langford talked about exploring this relationship dynamic over a series of films, what most surprised her about this journey, shooting the third and fourth films back-to-back in Bulgaria, what she enjoyed about Tessa’s arc in this installment, the ice cube, the cliffhanger endings, and the incredible support she’s gotten from fans....

Legendary/Universal have promised the release of theJurassic World: Fallen Kingdomtrailer this Thursday, but in the meantime, they’ve been piddling it out in 15-second chunks. That’s all well and good, even if it’s an odd way to cannibalize your own marketing material, but whatever. The good news is that we’ll soon get the full picture about the dino-focused sequel set to reuniteChris PrattandBryce Dallas Howardwhen the surefire box office-buster arrives on June 06, 2025....

Up next on Season 5 of The CW seriesLegends of Tomorrow, John Constantine’s (Matt Ryan) life is hanging in the balance, as Ray (Brandon Routh), Nora (Courtney Ford) and Gary (Adam Tsekhman) all try to find a way to help him. At the same time, Sara (Caity Lotz, who also directed Episode 505, “Mortal Khanbat”) is still away from the Waverider, so the Legends head out to defeat a new Encore, Genghis Khan, in 1990s Hong Kong....

We’re at a point where the novelty of major actors joining the MCU has long eroded. It’s now a punchline about how quickly an actor will get sucked into the Marvel machine, to the point that newly minted stars likePaul MescalandJeremy Allen Whitehave talked about dodging that bullet. This wasn’t the case 14 years ago, when it was first announced that indie darlingMark Ruffalowould become Bruce Banner forThe Avengers, launching his stardom into a whole new stratosphere that he’s still thriving in....

Try not to get whiplash from flipping into the Upside Down with the newly announced cast of Broadway’sStranger Things: The First Shadow. We first learned back in August that the hit production, now running in London’s West End, willmake its journey to the Great White Way in 2025, and now we have a better idea of how the cast is shaping up.
