Hunger Games Prequel Movie The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Officially Set by Lionsgate

The Hunger Games franchise is once again set to volunteer as tribute for the big screen, set to take audiences back to the deadly bread and circuses of dystopic Panem with an adaptation of author Suzanne Collins’s upcoming prequel novel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Lionsgate is officially moving forward with The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes as a feature film. The announcement arrives as readers still await the book’s scheduled May 19 release.

Venom 2 Gets Title and New Release Date

One of the big blockbuster movies that had remained on its release date for a long time was the sequel to the 2018 smash hit Venom, starring Tom Hardy as the infamous Marvel Comics alien symbiote and nemesis of Spider-Man. Venom 2 had been pegged for October 2 of this year and until today that’s where it stayed, possibly in the hope that moviegoing would be back to normal by the fall. Well, that’s not the case anymore: according to Deadline, the sequel has now moved to June 25, 2021, which is the disappointing but not entirely shocking news. On…

Netflix Lands Enola Holmes Movie Starring Millie Bobby Brown

Netflix is keeping Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown in its streaming stable for a new kind of starring vehicle in Enola Holmes. An adaptation of the Edgar Award-nominated young adult novel series of author Nancy Springer, the film will see the teen actress trading all things psychokinetic and Eggos for sleuthing in Victorian England, bearing a surname that obviously carries significant weight in the detective trade. The streaming giant has acquired the global rights (sans China,) to Springer’s The Enola Holmes Mysteries novels from Legendary Entertainment.

The Batman Movie Release Date Delayed

Well, at this point, we shouldn’t be surprised, right? Warner Bros. has delayed the release of The Batman, the first solo Batman movie in nearly a decade, by four months. Why? Why do you think? It’s because production on The Batman was shut down in March because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The Batman had been filming since January in the UK, and the production had just reached a point where major outdoor sequences involving Robert Pattinson’s Batman, an incredibly cool looking Batmobile, and even a Batcycle had been underway. The Batman had been scheduled to open on June 25,…

Shazam 2 is in the works, as officially revealed by New Line and Warner Bros.

True Detective Creator Outlines What His Version of Batman Would Be Like

“Batman is the only character in the world I didn’t create that I want a shot at,” True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto revealed in a lengthy Instagram post about his interest in tackling the Caped Crusader. “He’s the only piece of geek culture I have an affinity for.” The novelist and showrunner shared his thoughts on his interpretation of the Dark Knight and how he would approach the DC character were he given the opportunity. The scribe of grim crime shows and Rust Cohle’s nihilistic monologues has a somewhat unsurprising, dark take on Batman that he said deferred from the…

Upcoming Stephen King Movies and TV Shows in Development

It’s no accident that Stephen King is one of the most heavily-adapted writers in horror movie history. From horror gross-outs and intense psychological thrillers to far-out sci-fi romps and ambitious horror epics like It Chapter One and Chapter Two, there’s a King movie or TV show for everyone. It certainly helps that King is also one of the most prolific and successful writers working today. Since 1974, with the publication of Carrie, his debut novel about a troubled girl with telekinetic powers, King has been raising the bar of weird fiction. He certainly has some of the best human villains and…

Jurassic World 3 Release Date, Cast and Details

Jurassic World: Dominion is the title of the 2021-scheduled third film in the revived blockbuster Jurassic Park franchise, intended as the conclusion to a trilogy consisting of 2015’s Jurassic World and 2018’s Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. The sequel swan song will showcase a shaken status quo after Fallen Kingdom‘s plot twist, in which the cloned dinosaurs were unleashed upon civilization, altering the existential balance of mankind (and the rest of the animal kingdom). Seemingly mirroring Disney’s revived Star Wars Sequel Trilogy films, the Jurassic Sequel Trilogy will close things out with the director who helped foster the relaunch, Colin Trevorrow…

The Sopranos Prequel Movie Delayed Due to Coronavirus Concerns

It appears that the fall release date of The Many Saints of Newark, HBO’s long-anticipated prequel TV movie to its transformative peak television smash, The Sopranos, was born under a bad sign, taking shape during an era in which the film and television industry—and everything else in the civilized world—has been derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, the movie has just met the nowadays-inevitable fate of having its release date shifted back. The Many Saints of Newark is now scheduled to premiere on HBO on Friday, March 12, 2021. The move represents a nearly six-month shift from its previously scheduled…

The ’80s Martial Arts Movie Influences of Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge

Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge is a bone-crunchingly brutal take on the beloved game franchise and the heart-wrenching backstory of the titular warrior, Hanzo Hasashi. The newest Warner Bros. animated offering is also stacked with homages to classic martial arts movies and ’80s action flicks that the creators, writer Jeremy Adams and executive producer Rick Morales, tell me was vital to their vision of Mortal Kombat, which Morales reveals made the R-rated animation “the movie that I’ve always wanted to make.” Watching Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge as an action fan, it’s easy to see where the team pulled from,…
