While movie news has recently been full of depressing delays, the one silver lining to come from has been the new announcements surrounding Venom 2. While Sony moved much of their 2020 slate, including a crossover film in Morbius, to 2021, the studio confirmed that Venom 2 would be sticking to its October release, while hinting at a trailer release in the next few weeks. While the footage itself has yet to be released, a description of the events has been leaked on the web. According to a Russian Reddit user, a full description of the Venom 2 trailer has been released, with the trailer…

While Netflix has established itself as a major awards player with titles like A Marriage Story, The Irishman, and Roma, their library of original movies can be a roller coaster ride. For every inspired effort like The Platform, there’s a title like Spencer Confidential that seemingly goes through the motions despite its potential. Considering the current dearth of content, Netflix’s new action/comedy Coffee & Kareem seemingly couldn’t be released at a better time. That is until audiences actually watch the final product, which is a shocking misfire that crashes with its oft-putting mean-streak. Selling itself as a throwback to buddy cop films of yesteryear, Coffee & Kareem follows police…

Film studios continue to play musical chairs with the release calendar, as the Coronavirus continues to have a wide-ranging impact on how the industry operates. Joining No Time to Die, Fast 9, and Black Widow, Paramount announced yesterday that Top Gun Maverick and A Quiet Place II will be pushed back several months due to the virus, with the summer movie season continuing to be depleted. Universal is adding to the long-list of delayed releases today, pushing the Jordan Peele-produced Candyman into a September release date. The new Candyman sequel/reboot will move from its June 12, 2020 release date to September 25, 2020. This will join A Quiet Place II as newly-dated September…

With the conditions of the Coronavirus continuing to worsen, studios have acted fast to change their release plans for several upcoming projects. This has been a developing trend over the past few weeks, with No Time to Die starting the movements in early March and Sony recently pushing their major blockbusters into 2021. While Disney had delayed the release of Black Widow indefinitely, the studio had yet to address a majority of their upcoming releases until now. In a Variety exclusive, Disney announced they will be pushing back a majority of their Disney/Fox slate, including several MCU projects. To show the ramifications of these…

Resident Evil has been a consistent staple in popular culture throughout the millennium. While the video game series may have its occasionally weak entry, recent titles like Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard have continued the series’ strong legacy of horror classics. On the big screen, director Paul W.S. Anderson and star Mila Jovovich carried a six-film series, one that garnered a loyal following despite never connecting with critics. The horror property looked to expand onto the small screen with an upcoming Netflix series, though it appears fans are going to have to wait a little while longer. According to a Deadline report, Resident…

While mainstream American audiences often ignore international projects, some happen to catch on and gain a significant following. Train to Busan is one of those films, becoming the highest-grossing film in South Korea history before connecting with domestic critics (93% on Rotten Tomatoes) and audiences alike. Sold as a relentless zombie action/thriller, the film gained enough fan support to earn a sequel Peninsula, which is set to debut this year. While a release date is currently unknown, distributor Well Go USA Entertainment released the first trailer for Peninsula, which is set four years after Busan. Check out the trailer along with the official synopsis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVucSRLLeIM…

The Coronavirus has flipped the Hollywood industry upside down, with the large-scale ramifications leading to several productions being delayed or halted completely. While some were optimistic we would still get to enjoy a summer movie season, the delay of high-profile tentpoles like Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Morbius, and Black Widow show that the virus will likely impact America for a few more months at least. While the former two movies already have 2021 release dates, Black Widow has not been given a definite release window, which has led many to hypothesize that the project could be released on Disney+. According to ComicBookMovie, Black Widow will be a theatrical release,…

Long-after the success of the original Fast and Furious film, the franchise continues to drive forward with unprecedented success. Last year marked a major milestone in the brand’s development, with the spin-off Hobbs and Shaw opening to the enjoyment of fans and critics alike. While the film did not break box office records domestically (173 million on a 200 million dollar budget), it did earn a massive 759 worldwide, which makes it no surprise that Hobbs and Shaw 2 is on its way. During an Instagram Live Q&A (which was reported by ScreenRant), star Dwayne Johnson confirmed that Hobbs and Shaw 2 is officially happening, with the…

Sony, like many other movie studios, has been hit massively by the Coronavirus. In what was supposed to be a tentpole year for the studio, Sony has had to delay the release of Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Morbius, and Peter Rabbit 2, with all three being pushed to 2021 respectively. With all of these delays, many have wondered whether Venom 2 would be able to hold onto its October release date, as the film is still in its production phase. Thankfully, it looks like the film will be one of the few blockbusters to release on schedule this year. According to a Deadline report, Venom 2 is still expected…

Disney+ has already become a smash hit for the megacorporation, with the success of original programs like The Mandalorian and Togo gaining a lot of traction with audiences. Perhaps the streaming services’ largest allure is its massive library of Disney films. Whether you love the MCU, Star Wars, or the iconic Disney animated films, there is something for every film fan to be excited about. According to a new Disney+ survey that has been sent to users, the company could be adding even more content from their library. In this survey posted by Reddit user disney o4, the questionnaire asked about the inclusion of…
