Don’t you just hate it when you get invited to the private island resort of an eccentric tech billionaire only to find out it’s a ruse for some seriously dark shenanigans? Now, technically that’s never happened to us (we just found Glass Onion really immersive honestly). It is however the fate that Zoë Kravitz’s upcoming directorial debut Blink Twice has in store for Naomi Ackie, whose cocktail waitress Frida finds herself being whisked away for sun, sea, sand, and a side order of seriously sketch behaviour by Channing Tatum’s megarich Slater King in the sinister new trailer for the buzzy…

Great Scott! With every new bit of Nobody 2 news, things just keep looking better and better for Universal and 87North’s upcoming action thriller. Just last week, we shared the exciting announcement that Basic Instinct star Sharon Stone is set to play the lead villain in Indonesian filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto’s (The Night Comes For Us) eagerly anticipated sequel.

Ridley Scott has never been afraid to go big. He’s delivered thunderous sword-clashing skirmishes in Gladiator, Kingdom Of Heaven and Robin Hood. His previous film, Napoleon – released just days before Scott’s 86th birthday – featured no fewer than six battle sequences in its depiction of the French Emperor’s reign. So you best believe that, on his return to the Colosseum with Gladiator II – arriving over 20 years after the first instalment made audiences around the world think daily of the Roman Empire – Scott is ready to go big. Bigger, in fact, than ever before. “We begin the…

Sound the Steven Spielberg movie news klaxon! Just last month we brought you the exciting news that in-demand Oppenheimer and The Fall Guy star Emily Blunt is in talks to lead the legendary American filmmaker’s mysterious new UFO movie, currently slated for release in May 2026. And now we’re getting word of another big British name who could be boarding the project.

It’s often said that there’s no right or wrong way to grieve the loss of a loved one. And in His Three Daughters, the latest film from French Exit director and mumblecore maestro Azazel Jacobs — which premiered to rave reviews at TIFF last year — we’ll get to see three diverging approaches to loss as Elizabeth Olsen, Natasha Lyonne, and Carrie Coon’s estranged sisters Christina, Rachel, and Katie reunite to care for their dying father (Jay O. Sanders). If the first trailer for the already-in-the-Oscars-conversation Netflix film is anything to go by, Jacobs has an emotional wringer and we’re…

But before we’ve even had chance to see his take on Optimus Prime in Josh Cooley’s Autobot origin story, the Thor star has already put another buzzy project in his pipeline. Per Deadline’s reporting, Apple Original Films has won a hotly contested bid for The Corsair Code, an original sci-fi movie set to be led by Hemsworth. Based on a…
