There has been a trend in recent years to adapting classic movies into Television series. One of the most successful examples of this is Hannibal, which ran for three seasons on NBC. Despite it’s high praise, the series, which was based on the Thomas Harris series of novels, never truly found an audience and was cancelled by the Network in 2015. However despite this, the show has maintained a loyal fan following who would like to see it return in some capacity. Now, Hannibal Lector himself, Mads Mikkelsen has given an update on the series. While at the London Film…

Back in March, it was reported that actor Mads Mikkelsen walked out of a Doctor Doom audition for 2015’s Fantastic Four reboot. That apparently isn’t exactly the case, as he revealed while speaking to us exclusively at London Film and Comic Con. When asked about walking out of the audition: “I didn’t walk out. When I left it, I was just like – this is crazy. I don’t even have long arms. What am I doing in here? The audition was only about long arms. No lines. I felt a little funny.” Given the recent news that FOX is producing…

1994’s The Crow starring Brandon Lee is a film that is viewed as untouchable – as far as a remake or reboot. The awful circumstances in which Lee died while making the movie – coupled with the fact that the film’s subject matter make the actor’s death give it a very supernatural feel – makes it seem irreplaceable. Michael Wincott’s (Top Dollar) stunt double on the film, Chris Durand, had the following to say about what happened behind the scenes involving Lee’s death – while speaking to us exclusively at London Film and Comic Con: “I had actually gone home.…

1998’s Halloween H20 is regarded by some in the Horror community as the last decent Halloween film. What followed after that film was Halloween: Resurrection, which is generally perceived as awful. That film then lead to Rob Zombie rebooting the franchise and making two forgettable films and now the film is being rebooted again. Chris Durand, the actor who portrayed Michael Myers in Halloween H20, spoke with us exclusively at London Film and Comic Con and had quite a few interesting things to say. We first asked him if there was anything that he took away from the previous Michael…

One thing that many Marvel fans have been hoping to see since the announcement of ‘The Defenders’ is the potential team-up between Danny Rand and Luke Cage. Most comic book fans are aware of Heroes For Hire – and are hoping to see it potentially come to life in a Netflix series down the road. Well, at the Iron Fist panel at London Film and Comic Con, we had that same question on our minds – and Finn Jones gave us a bittersweet answer: “First, I would love to see Heroes For Hire. There’s not been any talks about that…

It was confirmed earlier this month that Marvel’s Iron Fist would be getting a second season – even though Season One didn’t go as Marvel would probably have hoped. At London’s Film and Comic Con, we had the pleasure of sitting down one on one with actor Sacha Dhawan, who played Davos on the first season. We asked about the actor about Season Two and here’s what he said: “It’s definitely not been confirmed whether or not I’ll be in it, but they’re hopefully starting in December. You know with things always changing, Marvel are pretty good adapting to any…

It’s strange to think that we have gotten to the point to the point that a toy can often give us our best look at film character. Back when I was younger, I recall owning several action figures that could only be considered as realistic if the actor being represented had lost a fight with an iron. Now, thanks to companies like Hot Toys, we get collectibles that look so accurate that you could almost be tricked into thinking it’s a still from the film, as is the case with their latest figure, Nite-Owl, sorry Tactical Suit Batman from the…

Let’s be honest, in the past, we’ve all had somebody take credit for something we’ve done, usually it’s something small like a joke or a good idea at work. Just imagine how you would feel if you’d lost credit for something as big as a Hollywood blockbuster, say – the latest Thor film? Well, that’s exactly what one screenwriter has recently had to deal with, and as you would expect, she’s not too happy. The issue first arose this weekend, when Marvel debuted a brand new trailer for Thor: Ragnarok at San Diego Comic Con. Whilst the trailer itself was…

Despite the event lasting four days, the most important day of the San Diego Comic Con has always been the Saturday. Today has already seen an impressive lineup in Hall H with the Warner Brothers Panel debuting brand new trailers for Justice League and Ready Player One as well as announcing the upcoming slate of films in the DCEU. However, it sounds as though Marvel may have won the day with what they brought to the table. The panel opened with Ant-Man’s Paul Rudd and Michael Pena recreating the MCU so far, right down to a fight with Hulk hands…

With Marvel using last week’s D23 to debut footage from the hugely anticipated Avengers: Infinity War many fans were wondering what they would be bringing to their panel at Hall H this weekend. That question has now been answered with the studio revealing an exclusive look at Thor: Ragnarok and as with every trailer Marvel brings to convention, it had a great reception. Read on to find out what was shown. The cast of the film plus director Taiki Waititi were on hand to discuss the film, where a few tidbits about the upcoming threequel were dropped including the fact…
