James Gunn is hoping to give the DC universe a fresh new start in the coming years, and he is recruiting some new faces to help him out. It’s been a tough few years for the guy. This week, it was announced that House of the Dragon’s Milly Alcock has been picked to play Supergirl […]

There’s Something Missing About DC’s ‘Superman: Legacy’ Casting, Can You Guess What It Is?
After years of failures and disappointments, James Gunn is set to relaunch the DC movie universe with “Superman: Legacy,” a new film presumably featuring a fresh take on the Man of Steel. However, at this point in Superman’s live-action on-screen journey, it seems pretty impossible to find a new story for the hero. What Rev […]
Read MoreJames Gunn Has Found His Supergirl In A Prominent ‘House Of The Dragon’ Alum
It wasn’t that long ago that the DCEU found a new Supergirl: soap veteran Sasha Calle. Unfortunately Calle came in right at the end of the comic line’s spotty attempt at an MCU, in a film, The Flash, that proved, after much hoopla, a disappointing anticlimax. But new DCEU co-honcho James Gunn is quickly plugging […]

Fool’s Paradise (2023) Official Trailer – Starring Charlie Day, Ken Jeong, Kate Beckinsale Based on the trailers and early buzz for Fool’s Paradise we were expecting a juicy, modern riff on Being There, set in Hollywood.

Zack Snyder and comic book movies had a good run. His second feature was 300, a monster hit version of Frank Miller’s take on the Greco-Persian wars. He was the one who pounded Alan Moore’s Watchmen into a movie, and he rebooted both Superman and Batman (and introduced a new Wonder Woman). Then came Justice […]
Read MoreJames Gunn’s ‘Superman’ Movie Has Reportedly Found Its Own Lex Luthor (In An Actor Once Rumored To Maybe Play Supes)
In the late ‘70s, Superman: The Movie helped kick off modern comic book cinema, but Hollywood has had a bear of a time with the Man of Steel ever since. Time seems to have forgotten about Brandon Routh. Henry Cavill’s weirdly ragey (and murderous!) iteration came to an untimely end. But maybe this new one […]

The first Suicide Squad movie may have been a hit, but that doesn’t mean it has a good rep. Indeed, its director, David Ayer, has only now been okay with opening up about what was clear to many: that the movie was taken away from him and softened, its rough edges sanded down for a […]
