A new Evangelion anime series directed by Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX’s Kazuya Tsurumaki and written by NieR creator Yoko Taro is in the works. So far, no other details about the project have been announced.

Now that Andor has come to end, series creator Tony Gilroy is free to speak more openly about what it was like working for Disney, and in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter he says that the studio was very insistent on him not using the word “fascism” while talking about his show focused on fighting fascism.

I Am Frankelda — co-writer / directors Arturo and Roy Ambriz’s stop motion dark fantasy film about a girl with a strange connection to another dimension — has been acquired by Netflix and is slated to debut on the streamer sometime later this year.

Ahead of the debut of The Gorillaz’s new album The Mountain, the animated band has dropped a teaser video that makes it seem like there might also be a short film situation on the way.

We already knew that the threat in Toy Story 5 would be a fresh piece of technology voiced by Greta Lee, and the latest trailer shows a bit more of the adorably creepy Lilypad, which is “always listening.” I guess I know what fictional gadget I’m reviewing next.

The latest trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu really highlights how very, very young Grogu still is for one of Yoda’s species, which makes it seem that much more absurd that Din Djarin still hasn’t found his son a helmet to protect that (presumably) soft head.

The film is set to debut on November 10th, 2027, with Justin Lin directing, Deadline reports. Momoa is also starring in October’s Street Fighter movie and was part of the cast of A Minecraft Movie, which is getting a sequel in July 2027.

The Mummy franchise will rise from its tomb 29 years after the 1999 original starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz arrived in theaters, Variety reports. Fraser and Weisz will be reuniting for The Mummy 4, along with producer Sean Daniel, but the film’s plot remains a mystery.

The adaptation of Andy Weir’s best-selling novel is hitting theaters on March 20th. But, before that, we’re getting our clearest look yet at Rocky, the alien that befriends Gosling’s Ryland Grace. This trailer really ramps up the drama and… wait, why is Grace teaching Rocky to dance?

Instead of Jonah Ray, Mike Nelson (from the show’s original run) will be donning the jumpsuit. Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett will also be reprising their roles as Servo and Crow. The focus of MST3K: The RiffTrax Experiments will be on “classic bad” movies and it’s already blown past its Kickstarter goal.

Now that Boys Go to Jupiter is streaming on HBO Max, you should check out our interview with writer / director Julian Glander about the movie and why he feels that open-source software programs like Blender are doing way more to “democratize” art than generative AI.

Earlier this week Neon confirmed that the live-action adaptation of Exit 8 would hit theaters in April, and now we have a new trailer that shows off its creepy world and very strict set of rules.

It seems fitting that the latest film from the directors of 2014’s The Lego Movie is also getting its own set. Available for preorder today for $99.99 and shipping on March 1st, Lego’s Project Hail Mary set features a spaceship with a rotating crew module and minifigure versions of Ryland Grace (Gosling) and the alien Rocky.

The latest trailer for A24’s podcast-focused horror film Undertone is big on unsettling vibes, but the cascade of creepy recordings driving its main character to her wits’ end make it seem like she just needs to log off and get out of the house a little more.

After making the festival rounds last year, Exit 8 — an adaptation of the cult hit horror game — is finally hitting theaters in the US on April 10th. In the meantime, check out my interview with director Genki Kawamura, who said his goal was “to create a new cinematic experience that blurs the lines between video game and cinema.”

Sorry if we don’t believe your “theater was sold out and erupted in applause and cheers.” Wired reviewed 1,398 Melania showings on Fandango and found only two were sold out. Critics’ scores are in the toilet. But we’re expected to believe that with over 100 “verified ratings,” it’s got a 98 percent on the Popcornmeter? Sure.

IP-licensing is truly out of control, as the film and TV rights for the terracotta pets that were popular in the ‘80s have now been acquired. What’s next, a movie based on The Clapper?

The only thing that might have made the new easer trailer for writer / director Boots Riley’s upcoming movie I Love Boosters even better would be a surprise guest appearance from Winona Rider decked out in Marc Jacobs. The film hits theaters on May 22nd.

When you’re cool with doing a fascism, what’s a few sexual misconduct accusations? Ratner, who directed Melania, faced multiple allegations of sexual assault and harassment, which led Warner Bros. to cut ties. But a little sexual misconduct (and ties to Epstein) never seemed to bother Melania. And it doesn’t seem to bother Tim Cook either, who posed for this photo on Ratner’s Instagram Stories.

Not everyone in Hollywood can be as thoughtful about AI as Ben Affleck. Thankfully, better thinking prevailed, and Chris Pratt quickly decided that creating an actual AI to play the tyrannical AI judge in the sci-fi thriller was not a good idea.

There’s a bunch of references to the games, including Mario and Luigi using fire flowers and Birdo from Super Mario Bros. 2, but it’s Yoshi that’s the obvious star. Oh, and he’s pretty dang cute, too. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is coming to theaters April 1st.

What better way to spend Sunday morning than with a fresh Super Mario Galaxy movie trailer. Nintendo is streaming its next Direct showcase for the sequel on January 25th at 9AM ET. Hopefully the talking flower will make an appearance. For a refresher, here’s the most recent look.

While the new trailer for Disney Plus’ Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord series doesn’t at all make the Sith Lord look like a heroic figure, it does suggest that meeting his new apprentice is going to reveal new things about his character when the show premieres on April 6th.

The new trailer for Amazon MGM’s live-action Masters of the Universe film starring Nicholas Galitzine as He-Man and Jared Leto as Skeletor raises a few questions, like, why does this exist? Who is it for? Will anyone actually see the movie when it hits theaters on June 5th?

With 16 Oscars nominations including Best Picture, Best Directing, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Cinematography, Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has become the most nominated film in the awards show’s history — a record that was previously shared by All About Eve, Titanic, and La La Land, which were each up for 14 golden statues.

All You Need Is Kill is a feast for the eyes, but the animated feature’s soundtrack is also an absolute knockout, and you can listen to it now on all the major streaming platforms.

Ahead of debuting a trailer for its new Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord animated series tomorrow, Disney Plus has shared a short (and inky) teaser that makes it seem like the Sith Lord’s lightsaber is going to be seeing plenty of action.

Originally, the live-action movies were going to come to Netflix starting in 2027, but What’s on Netflix reports that they’re appearing starting this year, beginning with Megan 2.0 on January 26th. The films still stream on Peacock first before jumping to Netflix.

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went on the Joe Rogan Experience to promote their new film The Rip, and ended up sharing some very depressing details about Netflix’s love of repeated exposition dumps and its approach to filmmaking in this age of constant distraction. As Variety reports:
