Perhaps of all upcoming movies, Avatar: The Way of Water had the biggest uphill climb to make when it came to capturing an audience’s attention. It has been 13 years since the release of James Cameron’s first record-setting cinematic adventure in the world of Pandora. Since then, the anticipation for the sequel (as well as the three planned Avatar follow-ups) has felt somewhat tepid. Well, the second movie has finally swam its way into theaters and, given the critical and audience reception, it seems that James Cameron…

If you’ve got a soft spot for bullet-riddled action movies, blood-drenched horrors, and are the sort of person who pays attention to what the critics think, then you’d be well within your rights to consider taking the plunge and checking out last year’s Death Valley. After all, co-writer and director Matthew Ninaber’s gory shoot ’em up holds a strong 75 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes, and the premise that finds a team of mercenaries attempting to rescue a bioengineer being held captive in a Cold War bunker – only to…

Zack Snyder certainly isn’t waiting on that DC green light to work on even more superhero films, or maybe conclude the story he set out to tell all those years ago, and he has recently shared an update with his fans regarding Rebel Moon, an epic space opera that’s set to introduce a whole new fictional world. Meanwhile, HBO has released a batch of character posters that highlight The Last of Us cast. With the live-action adaptation making its way to our small screens in less than two months, we can expect to see even…

With her ice blond hair, kaleidoscopic costumes and melismatic high notes, the South Korean solo artist MwE (pronounced mu-WEE) looks the part of a bona fide K-pop idol, the model of a hyper-visible cipher. Fellow girl group RTMIS (pronounced Artemis) boasts similarly convincing stage confidence, while boy band F8 (pronounced Fate) approaches the delivery of English and Korean lyrics and kinetic choreography with enough militaristic precision to draw whoops from a crowd of about 600 at New York’s Circle in the Square…

Remaking a Universal Monsters classic like The Mummy isn’t exactly a sure thing. Just ask anyone who was a part of the failed Tom Cruise reboot that flopped as one of the new movie releases back in 2017. Those fears were also present when the studio embarked on its 1999 blockbuster with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz, and recently Fraser recalled a moment where his co-star shared those doubts.As he broke down his most iconic roles for a video with GQ, Rick O’Connell himself laid out a story in which The Mummy’s…

Image via Paramount Pictures/Spyglass Media Group 2022 began strong for the horror genre as the Scream “requel” restarted the meta-slasher series with aplomb back in January. So much so that a follow-up was fast-tracked so quickly that it’s already in the can and waiting to be released next year. In fact, Ghostface will be slicing and dicing his way through another ensemble of movie-savvy victims sooner than we expected, thanks to the film’s new release date. As per Deadline, Paramount Pictures has officially…
