Pictures will move forward with a sequel to Mad Max: Fury Road, it sounds like director George Miller could end up getting behind the camera for another sequel at the studio. John Schnepp, the director of the documentary The Death of Superman Lives, has reportedly heard that Miller has been lined up to direct Man of Steel 2, the follow-up to Zack Snyder’s Superman reboot from 2013....

Ryan Murphy S Scream Queens Trailer Looks Like American Horror Story Meets Glee

Ryan Murphy’s ‘Scream Queens’ Trailer Looks Like ‘American Horror Story’ Meets ‘Glee’ By Angie Han/May 14, 2015 12:30 pm EST Scream Queens is created by the same trio that brought us Glee: Murphy, Brad Falchuck, and Ian Brennan. No surprise, then, that it has a similarly over-the-top sensibility. If it’s anything like Murphy’s other shows, it’ll start out as a masterpiece of WTFery before its mounting inconsistencies turn it into borderline unwatchable slog....

Sam Raimi To Direct World War Iii

Sam Raimi To Direct ‘World War III’ By Jack Giroux/Feb. 27, 2016 10:00 am EST Just last week we wrote up a clever advertisement Sam Raimi directed for Chevy. The commercial played with horror tropes — and the tropes that come with seeing a horror movie with a loud audience — and it certainly made us wish Raimi would make another horror picture. He directed the pilot of Ash vs The Evil Dead, but he hasn’t made a movie in the genre since 2009’s delightful Drag Me to Hell....

The Sam Raimi-produced horror series — which brings back Bruce Campbell as the chainsaw-handed hero — has been renewed for Season 2. More details on the Ash vs....

The Voice In The Star Wars The Force Awakens Trailer Is Updated With New Video

The Voice In The ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ Trailer Is… [Updated With New Video] By Germain Lussier/Dec. 1, 2014 2:00 pm EST There’s a lot to talk about in the Star Wars: The Force Awakens teaser trailer, but there’s only so much talking. Two short little phrases: “There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?” Followed by “The dark side…and the light.” With all the visuals that we can break down, there’ are only these two brief snippets of actual dialogue to consider....

The long-gestating project has just found a new director in Benny Boom, replacing Carl Franklin (who in turn replaced John Singleton). More details on the Tupac biopic director update after the jump. THR reports Boom has entered negotiations with production company Morgan Creek to direct the Tupac movie — and just in time, too....

Warner Bros Rolls Dice On New Dungeons And Dragons Movie

Warner Bros. Rolls Dice On New ‘Dungeons And Dragons’ Movie By Russ Fischer/Aug. 3, 2015 1:00 pm EST The last time a Dungeons and Dragons movie hit the screen, in 2000, it was a fantasy disaster, like a D&D play session where every dice roll comes up totally wrong. But Warner Bros. started to develop a new D&D movie a couple years ago. While that effort was temporarily delayed by a lawsuit, now the new Dungeons and Dragons movie is back on....

Woody Harrelson And Sam Rockwell Are Reuniting For Martin Mcdonagh S Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri

Woody Harrelson And Sam Rockwell Are Reuniting For Martin McDonagh’s ‘Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri’ By Jack Giroux/March 10, 2016 6:00 am EST But while McDonagh’s female characters are far from “awful,” especially on the stage, it’s still interesting to hear he’s making his next feature about a woman. Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri stars Frances McDormand, and Seven Psychopaths stars Sam Rockwell and Woody Harrelson have just been cast to star alongside her....
