Marc Maron is one of the most unique talents in Hollywood, with his direct, almost sardonic sense of humor making him a mainstay in different mediums. He’s been a successful stand-up comedian throughout his career, turning that success into the wonderful WTF podcast and several onscreen roles. He’s been a star in indie projects like The Sword of Trust while being a reliable character actor in projects like Joker and Glow. Maron’s comedic style has always pushed the limits, with his latest comments about Marvel potentially some longtime fans. In his latest stand-up special on Netflix, Marc Maron referred to Marvel fans as “religious fanatics”…

The Walking Dead has been a staple on AMC for over a decade, catching mainstream popularity when it debuted back in 2010. While some of the show’s strong momentum has wained, it still maintains a faithful cult following, leading to the spin-off series Fear the Walking Dead (currently approaching its sixth season). While AMC would love to keep their success going, production on both projects will have to halt due to the Coronavirus. In a report from Deadline, AMC has officially halted pre-production on Walking Dead’s eleventh season, while delaying filming on the latest season of Fear the Walking Dead. Walking Dead will continue to have its…

The Coronavirus has reached the National Emergency declaration level, having a wide impact across the country and world. Along with leading to greater distancing and isolation of people, the virus has also left a notable impact on the film industry.

This includes many of Netflix’s incoming endeavors, including their most popular production Stranger Things. According to a Deadline report, Netflix has halted production on all…

The #MeTooMovement has led to countless personal stories from victims relaying the pain and abuse done by business moguls. Many of them have been against former famed producer Harvey Weinstein, who became known in the industry as a perennial Oscar favorite before shocking admissions came out about sexual assault and harassment. Weinstein finally is paying for those crimes, being sentenced to 23 years in prison earlier this week for rape and sexual crimes. With Weinstein in jail, many around the industry have had a cathartic reaction, including actress Kate Beckinsale. In an Instagram post, the Underworld actress revealed that Harvey Weinstein acted…

It’s shocking to see a small project like Blumhouse’s The Hunt create waves of controversy, with many attacking the project (Donald Trump famously did) for its violent content and political leanings. After being taken off the release calendar for months and now pulled from theaters due to the Coronavirus, The Hunt now lands on VOD after an arduous journey to release. What’s baffling more than any pre-release controversy is the fact a relatively disposable horror/thriller like this could cause so much discourse, with The Hunt’s attempts at political satire failing to capitalize on its potential. The Hunt follows a group of social elites…

From a regular staple on The Office to Jack Ryan, John Krasinski’s career has been one of remarkable range. Throughout it all, Krasinski has been a consistently enjoyable presence to watch, offering a sturdy charm that often engages audiences. Krasinski has also made an impressive transition to directing projects, with his first two features The Hollars and A Quiet Place showing promise of a great craftsman, which is sure to improve with Krasinski’s upcoming sequel A Quiet Place: Part II. While we’re still weeks away from that film’s release, it seems like A Quiet Place 3 could already be happening. In an interview with Collider, John Krasinski spoke about the…

The Coronavirus continues to impact our world greatly, morphing our daily lives while taking the lives of many. It also continues to impact the film industry greatly, with several projects like A Quiet Place: Part 2, Peter Rabbit, and No Time to Die all moving from their March/April releases to later this year. Many have speculated this could lead to the closure of movie theaters across the country temporarily, perhaps throughout the summer movie season. With that being the case, its no surprise that Fast and Furious 9 is switching up its release. Announced via the Fast Saga Facebook page, the long-awaited sequel will move…

Amazon has had mixed experience with their original programming, highlighted by several highs (Manchester by the Sea and Marvelous Mrs. Maisle) and a few notable lows (the box office performance of Late Night and the high-profile original series Carnival Row). Perhaps their best success story in some time was the first season of The Boys, which adapted a cult comic series into one of Amazon’s most popular programs. With Season One connecting with fans and audiences, many are excited to see how the show continues after its shocking cliffhanger finale. The first look at Aya Cash’s Stormfront in ‘THE BOYS’ Season 2 has been officially released. (Source:…

Ever since news of his vile crimes hit the internet, people have been waiting for former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein to pay for his crimes.

Nearly four years since the movement started, Harvey Weinstein is finally being sentenced to prison. It’s been announced today that Weinstein will be going to…

One of the forgotten faces of superhero’s early days on the big screen is Spawn, who debuted on the big screen back in 1997. Unlike it’s R-rated counterpart Blade, Spawn failed to connect with critics (holds an 18% rating on Rotten Tomatoes), but ended up being a decent hit with 87.4 million worldwide. Comic book creator Todd McFarlane has been trying to get the character back on the big screen ever since, with the creator in the production phase of directing his own Spawn project. Set to star Jamie Foxx as Spawn and Jeremey Renner as Detective Twitch, his reboot has the promise to…
