‘Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice’ Gets PG-13 Rating By Angie Han/Sept. 30, 2015 11:00 am EST Pretty much every mainstream superhero movie that comes out these days is rated PG-13, so it should come as no surprise that Zack Snyder’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has been rated PG-13 as well. The only part of that announcement that should raise an eyebrow is the MPAA’s reasoning. Find out more about the Batman v Superman PG-13 rating after the jump....

‘True Detective’ Season Two Teaser: Locked Inside A Holy War By Russ Fischer/April 9, 2015 10:18 am EST True Detective season two will premiere on June 21 on HBO, and now you can see the first footage from the new season. This tease doesn’t offer much, but the very first shot of a California highway interchange seems to link right to early reports about the season. Then there are shots of the primary cast, including Colin Farrell, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams and Taylor Kitsch, with some atmosphere that is similar to that of the first season — this looks just as heavy — but with a feel that is distinctly different....

Alexander Skarsgard And Paul Rudd Go ‘Mute’ For Duncan Jones By Jacob Hall/Nov. 4, 2015 11:30 am EST Director Duncan Jones has been talking about this science fiction film noir dream project Mute for years. Like so many passion projects, it always seemed to be just out of reach for the Moon and Source Code filmmaker, who has spent the past few years bringing Warcraft to life. With his big-budget fantasy epic nearing the homestretch, Jones can actually make Mute happen instead of just wistfully talking about it to anyone who will listen....

Sure, Daniel Radcliffe Could Return As Harry Potter In The Distant Future, Are You Happy Now? By Ethan Anderton/June 28, 2016 12:00 pm EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Even if Daniel Radcliffe killed a man in cold blood, he would still be most famous for playing Harry Potter in the eight-film franchise that adapted J.K Rowling’s best-selling book series. I can’t even imagine how many times Radcliffe has been asked if he would ever return to the wizarding world on the big screen, and since he’s making the rounds to promote Swiss Army Man (which is totally worth seeing), that means that same question has popped up again....
