With the premiere date quickly approaching, I sat down with the cast and filmmakers behind the series at this year’s Sundance Film Festival to talk about the show. If you’re not aware, Sundance has really amped up their coverage of television and short-form series over the past few years. It’s a smart and necessary movie that has highlighted a number of ambitious shows likeUnsolved....

Fans of horror anime just got a devastating blow, as Adult Swim and Production I.G’s upcoming adaptation ofJunji Ito’sUzumakigets delayed until next year.

Terrence Malickhas been working onVoyage of Timefor over forty years, shooting the first footage of his universe-spanning doc in the nineteen-seventies.

Thanks toSalma Hayek’s Ajak, we know the sudden return of half of the Earth’s population caused something called “The Emergence”, and because the Eternals are involved, that means their archenemies the Deviants aren’t far behind....

When writing and directing your first feature film that you’re also starring in, most people would try and tackle something easy. A movie without too many locations, maybe, or a story with just a few characters. Something stress-free that still allows you to demonstrate you know how to make a movie and can be trusted with a bigger budget for your next project. ClearlyWoody Harrelsondidn’t get that memo when he decided to makeLost in London, which premiered earlier this year and was based on real-life events in Harrelson’s life....
