Watching a good zombie flick gives you an odd catharsis. Maybe it’s seeing society collapse from the safety of your couch, or the thrill of imagining how you would fare in a world where normal rules no longer apply. Either way, the genre has stuck around for decades now. It began with the classics. White Zombie (1932) gave us the first cinematic undead, but it was George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Dead (1968) that truly defined the modern zombie. His trilogy turned zombies into a metaphor for everything, from consumerism to Cold War dread. Then, in 2002, came…
While Star Trek: Picard Season 3 was acclaimed and well-beloved, there was always something bittersweet about how it came about. Bringing in the cast of The Next Generation required cuts, and the series dropped much of its main cast from Season 1 and 2. This resulted in many storylines being set aside until recently, when one of the characters reappeared in a new comic.The comic book series Star Trek: The Last Starship presents an intriguing story, taking place shortly after the events of “The Burn,” a universe-changing event highlighted in Discovery. As the Federation collapses, a resurrected James T. Kirk…
There can be more than one in Henry Cavill’s new Highlander remake…antagonists that is. In a new reveal by The Hollywood Reporter, it seems that Dave Bautista’s main antagonist, The Kurgen, will be joined by Hollywood icon and frequent villain, Jeremy Irons, who will add to Connor MacLoed’s woes as the leader of a secret order called The Watchers. The group led by Irons see the immortals as a threat to humanity, which will likely put them in conflict with Cavill’s hero. This brings about a second DCEU reunion for Cavill, as Russell Crowe, who appeared in Zack Snyder’s Man…
This is perhaps a little overzealous to say, but I never believe it when an artist says that they are retiring. If a true talent exists, I don’t think that the artistic impulse can simply be flicked off like a switch; real passion cannot be killed, and the urge to create cannot be permanently ignored. Case in point: I was never convinced that Daniel Day-Lewis’ final performance was going to be in Paul Thomas Anderson’s 2017 film Phantom Thread, and with the creation and arrival of Anemone, I am thrilled to be proven correct, as the legendary actor has not…
Back in January, Gerard Butler vowed that fans of his current hit action franchise would not have to endure a long wait for a sequel to Den of Thieves 2: Pantera. Considering those fans had a seven-year wait between this year’s sequel and the original 2018 movie, that was a welcome promise, but a new filming update on Den of Thieves 3 has suggested that the next movie will not be releasing as quickly as some would like. Although it is clear that Den of Thieves 3 is moving along at a much quicker pace than its predecessor, which was…
Let it not be said that Law & Order: SVU has lost its shock factor despite being almost thirty years in, because the Season 27 premiere in the 2025 TV schedule was a game-changer. As if it wasn’t enough that the drama killed off Captain Cragen, Fin was attacked and robbed on his way home from the memorial. While he wasn’t so badly injured that he couldn’t play video games from his hospital room by the end of the episode, it was harrowing to watch Fin be brutally attacked. According to Ice-T, he won’t even be in the next episode…

The Witcher Season 4 is on the horizon on the 2025 TV schedule, and meanwhile, the sun is setting on The Witcher Season 5. Now, I realize that’s a bit confusing, because we aren’t even able to watch Season 4 with a Netflix subscription yet. However, it makes sense because one cast member has gotten sentimental about production wrapping on the final season of this beloved Netflix fantasy series just a few weeks before new episodes drop.Freya Allan, who has played Ciri since day one, took to Instagram to post about wrapping on Season 5 of The Witcher. Posting a…
October is usually one of the busiest months of the year for streamers. Fall is in full swing, and several platforms are eager to capitalize on the Halloween season. After a busy September that saw the premiere of the hotly anticipated The Office spinoff The Paper, Peacock is keeping the hits rolling next month. On the film side of things, an Ethan Coen hit from this summer is making its way to the platform. As is the remake of one of DreamWorks Animation’s most loved flicks. The small screen has just as much content, whether you’re a fan of flashy…

The latest update comes in the form of another casting, as Jeremy Irons has joined the new take on the 1986 fantasy cult classic.
