Cinepop has recently interviewed Megan Fox, an actress known for her roles in the rebooted Transformers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchises. She was especially vocal about new roles she would like to take on. When she was asked if she could play any superhero of her choosing, the actress had this to say about Mortal Kombat’s Kitana: “I’ve been getting this question a lot and I should think it about it more because I keep drawing a blank. I don’t have a specific superhero that I think I should play. I’m sorry I don’t have a better answer for…

Fans started to lose hope after progress came to a halt on the new Halloween sequel “Halloween Returns” and the rights to the franchise went up for grabs. It seems, however, that the franchise might be returning from the grave after all. Miramax and Trancas International Films both announced today that they would be producing a new Halloween film alongside Blumhouse Productions. Malek Akkad will be producing under the Trancas International banner while Jason Blum will be producing for Blumhouse. What truly comes off as interesting, however, is that the series original creator John Carpenter is returning as an executive…

The Predator franchise is one that’s never lived up to its potential as a franchise – rehashed sequel has followed after rehashed sequel, and yet, the original promised so much more thanks to its brilliant direction. And, now, Shane Black, who has been developing a new sequel that promises to properly continue the original story, has let out that he intends to expand on some of the concepts from the original. It’s not to ‘improve,’ it’s make it fun, make it different, make it organically different. So what’s the extension of it that makes sense, that’s exciting? There have been…

According to AFP, Fox’s new Predator reboot ‘The Predator’ is prepping to start shooting in October, making sure it’s ready by its March 2018 release date. Director Shane Black, who played Hawkins in the original Predator, had this to say to Agence France-Presse (via AVP Galaxy) about the new film and how much bigger it’ll be than the last few: “To the best of my knowledge, the train is rolling. It took some convincing because they’ve been putting out these movies all along with a $50-60 million budget, and they all had a guaranteed return. But there was never the sense…

When asked about what types of characters could be getting a solo outing, he had this to say: “We’ve announced the next nine movies, ten counting Civil War, through the end of 2019.

There’s a lot of popular horror franchises out there, and many that started in the 1980’s are just about anything but dead. But Puppet Master? It’s still alive and well, even though it’s just about faded into obscurity. A new announcement, coming just shortly before filming was supposed to commence on Puppet Master: Axis Termination (the eleventh, or twelfth film in the series depending on whether or not you count Puppet Master vs Demonic Toys), indicates that a bigger budgeted reboot is in the works. And from the team behind Bone Tomahawk, no less. Titled Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich,…

The internet has a way of dealing with things – backlash and complaining without any thought or reason. And, naturally, that’s what happened with X-Men: Apocalypse’s marketing campaign regarding the various reveals of the villain Apocalypse. The first reveal, an image of Oscar Isaac portraying Apocalypse in normal makeup with no additional post production effects, was met with extreme negativity. “Too purple,” people said. “Looks like a Power Rangers villain,” they said. Next up people were displeased with Isaac’s supposedly normal voice in the first teaser – a result of, again, incomplete post production work. Director Bryan Singer had this…
