Gunn's first screenplay, Tromeo & Juliet, was co-written with Troma co-founder Lloyd Kaufman, promising 'all the body-piercing, kinky sex, and car crashes that Shakespeare wanted but never had.'

Emma drops an absolute bombshell in the midst of a game where they're asked to reveal the worst thing they've ever done. Soon everyone around her starts to question how well they really know her.

The app is incredibly simple. I made use of the wonderful SimpleCSS for my design and then made use of the TMDB API. The TMDB APIs are pretty easy to use, but finding out how to get this information did take a bit of digging.

When Hulu and HBO and all the other streamers start to crop up later in the game, it's kind of like: You have Netflix, and then maybe you try another one. But you're not gonna let go of Netflix. Netflix had just already won the war.

The Fast Saga was born out of the creativity and community of Los Angeles car culture. Even as the series grew into a global phenomenon, the heart of the franchise has always been rooted in the city.

Melling plays a shy young man, Colin, who meets a hot biker, Ray (Skarsgård); the two sweetly and awkwardly develop a BDSM relationship as Colin starts to grasp on to what he really wants from his life.

One Battle After Another dominated the awards race and even threw in some box-office points as well. Seven of the top-ten movies were Best Picture nominees at the Oscars, for what it's worth.

Alan Cumming has revealed he inadvertently injured Pedro Pascal during production of the upcoming Marvel movie Avengers: Doomsday. The Traitors host, 60, is set to reprise his role as X-Men superhero Nightcrawler in the film. Speaking during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Cumming said: What was funny was my first scene with Pedro, he hurt his neck and had to go home. So I broke Pedro.

George Lucas should have died. It was 1962; the 17-year-old had just crashed his yellow Autobianchi convertible into a walnut tree, in Modesto, California. The car rolled, bounced and came to rest - it was "beyond mangled, flipped upside down and twisted like a crushed Coke can against the tree". When the teenager woke in hospital two weeks later, his heart having nearly stopped, he had a new philosophy: "Maybe there's a reason I survived this accident that nobody should have survived."

The historic film studios recorded global revenue of $37.3 billion, representing a 5% decrease compared to the previous year due to the decline in the cable business with a loss of advertising on the TNT, Discovery Channel, Cartoon Network and CNN channels.

10 Cloverfield Lane Mary Elizabeth Winstead, John Goodman and John Gallagher Jr are locked in an underground bunker for the majority of this left-field sequel to Cloverfield, with thrilling results. In the film's final throes, Winstead's character exits the bunker, and finds that her captor was telling the truth about an alien invasion above - a twist that completely and ruinously dissipates the hard-earned tension that came before.

In recent years, there's one word you hear again and again from movie distributors and pundits: event. Making a great movie is nice. But creating a culture-shaking event is what's required in the current boom-bust film landscape. It's something everyone has known for a long time, but in 2026 it seems like studios are really beginning to grasp what it actually means. From Tom Cruise in an auteur-driven comedy to the sequels to Devil Wears Prada and The Social Network

Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Emily Brontë's beloved novel has been driving people mad since the project was first announced. Now, you can see it for yourself. Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi play Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, two young adults ( their ages are questionable here) with a deeply destructive obsession with each other that only spirals further when the Lintons (Shazad Latif and a scene-stealing Alison Oliver) move in at Thrushcross Grange across from the Earnshaws at Wuthering Heights.

You would think Searchlight hoped for The Testament of Ann Lee to release widely in theaters with something to celebrate ( re: Oscar noms), but that campaign didn't quite take off. The lack of awards buzz shouldn't besmirch Amanda Seyfried's performance here, though, which is great. Plus, if you want to go to the movies this weekend, it's an incredibly better option than the Chris Pratt AI movie.

It's nice that you are asking about props, because they're not really acknowledged, says Jode Mann, a TV prop master in Los Angeles. When Mann worked on the children's comedy show Pee-wee's Playhouse in the 1980s, she got a call from its star, Paul Reubens, who said he was nominating her for an Emmy. It was only after Mann told her mother and promised to thank her if she won that Reubens called back to say he couldn't nominate her because there's no category for you.

Last week, he opened a $230-million movie and television studio on the edge of the Arts District in downtown Los Angeles nestled alongside the dramatic new Sixth Street Bridge. The state-of-the-art complex has five sound stages, offices and other proper movie studio features such as a mill, commissary and base camp. "We just had all the major networks, all the major streaming platforms walk through this facility and they can't believe how nice it is," said Wainright, managing partner of East End Studios.

Starring Brad Pitt as the titular Cliff Booth along with Elizabeth Debicki, Scott Caan, Carla Gugino, and more, the trailer depicts Booth after the events of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. "So you helped rick subdue those hippie intruders, huh?," he's asked before replying "Something like that." The teaser then shows various scenes and scenarios from the film, but with minimal dialogue; though each time a character cusses or flips someone off, it's bleeped and censored.

Crime 101 lifts heavily from the oeuvre of Michael Mann, particularly Heat, in setting this thriller in Los Angeles. The "101" in its title is for the 101 freeway, which our solitary jewel thief, Mike (Chris Hemsworth), uses to make clean getaways. That anyone could carve out a life of crime in a metropolis so choked by traffic is a silly concept at best, and the first of many plot holes at worst.

The Academy pulled a complete one-eighty last year. They honored an incredibly unsexy film as the 2024 Best Picture winner (Oppenheimer), only to award a sex-work comedy-drama (Anora) in 2025 that featured multiple scenes of Best Actress winner Mikey Madison working it for the camera. I can't tell you what changed in between each Oscars ceremony, but I certainly wouldn't mind if 2026 continued to rock these awards presentations by awarding Michael B. Jordan for getting it on with a vampire in Sinners.

As the movie opens, the city is being terrorised by a cult calling itself New World, whose members are hell bent on demonstrating their commitment to a survival-of-the-fittest creed by murdering everyone in sight. Their leader, a fearsome killer nicknamed the Night Slasher (Brian Thompson), wields a giant, spiky knife that must be the envy of Black Metal bands everywhere.
