Minecraft
Deadline reports Jack Black has joined the cast of the Minecraft movie in a currently undisclosed role.
Untitled Jordan Peele Project
During his recent guest appearance on the Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast, Jordan Peele stated his next film could be his “favorite movie” if he “make(s) it right.”
This has been…obviously, it’s been an interesting year because the writer’s strike had had me in a state of listening, and that’s where I need to be. I do feel like my next project is clear to me, and I’m psyched that I have another film that, you know, could be my favorite movie if I make it right.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
Speaking with Total Film (via Coming Soon), Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire director Adam Wingard promised the upcoming sequel includes numerous Easter eggs referencing previous Toho projects.
One of the incredible things about Godzilla is that the character has existed in so many different tones and interpretations in the Toho films. I’m a huge fan of the whole spectrum, and I’ve always really enjoyed the late-Shōwa era. There are so many big ideas, and they have such epic fun with these larger-than-life characters. In Godzilla vs. Kong, we paid homage to that epic tradition, including a handful of Easter eggs for the hardcore fans, and while I don’t want to give anything away, we definitely work in a few things for the Toho fans in the new film as well, so keep your eyes open!
Relatedly, newly leaked tie-toys include “Godzilla Evolved,” “Kong with B.E.A.S.T. Glove,” “Skar King with Whiplash,” and “Suko with Titanus Doug.”
Dead By Daylight
Blumhouse producer Ryan Turek gave a brief update on the Dead By Daylight movie during a recent interview with Collider.
I will say that one of the projects that I’m active on is Dead by Daylight, which is the video game adaptation of a game that’s been around for, like, seven years. I look at that as the celebration of horror that the video game itself is.
Madame Web
The cast of Madame Web reveal their New Year’s resolutions in a new featurette.
The First Omen
A six second teaser promises a full trailer for The Omen prequel will release sometime later today.
Badland Hunters
Elsewhere, Don Lee cuts the head off an alligator in the trailer for Badland Hunters, a post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama coming to Netflix this January 26.
Twisted Metal
NBC reports the second season of Peacock’s Twisted Metal TV series will introduce Calypso, Dollface and Mr. Grimm.
La Brea
Eoin Macken promised the final season of La Brea includes “all the dinosaurs you ever thought of in your life” during a recent interview with TV Line.
So many dinosaurs. Think of all the dinosaurs you ever thought of in your life, and they’re all in there. We’ve got time travel, dinosaurs, romance, death…all sorts of stuff.
Echo
Finally, Maya fights Daredevil in a new clip from Echo, premiering January 9 on Disney+.
