Fans were rightfully upset whenKatie Cassidy’s Laurel Lance was killed off inArrowSeason 4, but she soon resurrected onThe Flashin an Earth-2 version of herself called Black Siren. Now, Cassidy is the latest member of theArrow-verse to sign a deal across the network’s super-powered shows, followingWentworth Miller’s deal(as Captain Cold)as well asJohn Barrowman’s(as Malcolm Merlyn), both of whom will be appearing onLegends of Tomorrowas part of thenew Legion of Doomvillain team-up....

The dead speak!Sorry, that has nothing to do with that we’re talking about here, I just wanted to see what it’s like to start something like that. (Didn’t love it. Did not feel great.) But it’s going to be almost exclusively positivity from this point on, promise. I need it.Weneed it, quite frankly.Star Warsdiscussions have been straight-upfraughtsince the release of directorJ.J. Abrams’The Rise of Skywalker, a massive franchise-capper that certainly shot for the moon but only landed on like, Coruscant....

It seems like ever sinceThe Purgemade its presence known in the horror genre almost a decade ago, home invasion thrillers have become more and more popular, and the new trailer forBarbariansshows us the latest horror story in that sub-genre. StarringIwan Rheon,Tom Cullen,Catalina Sandino Moreno, andInès Spiridonov, the film follows twenty-four hours in the life of a couple who are the targets of a sinister and nightmarish home invasion just before moving into their dream house, along with two of their friends....

Jon Bell’s feature directorial debut,The Moogai, is a boogeyman movie, but it’s one that roots itself in truth. Bell uses the horror genre to explore the Stolen Generations, children of Australian Aboriginal descent who were taken from their families by government agencies and church missions. Adapted from his short film of the same name,The MoogaiseesShari SebbensandMeyne Wyattreturn to the roles of Sarah and Fergus, respectively. They’re a young Aboriginal couple who have their second child....

With all of the allegationsbehind-the-scenesin theArrow-verse right now, it’s nice to look forward to a brand-new superhero series that’s removed from the fray. The Atlanta-based productionBlack Lightningis set to premiere Tuesday, January 16, followingThe Flash(Legends of Tomorrowwill return on a new night and time in February).Black Lightningcomes fromMaraBrock AkilandSalim Akil(with Salim showrunning), and starsCress Williamsas Jefferson Pierce, a super-powered dad and charter school principal who hung up his cape (so to speak) over a decade ago, given the toll it was taking on his family life....

The biggest mystery in the originalBlade Runnerwas Rick Deckard himself. After spending his life hunting down replicants, was he one himself? The answer was played up in a scene added to the director’s cut of the film in which the character comes across an origami unicorn, but then directorRidley Scottdefinitively confirmed he was a replicant. So, there you have it. Cased closed, right? Well,Denis Villeneuve, who’s helming the sequel, hopes to keep the case open just a crack forBlade Runner 2049....

I absolutely love the many ways thatBreaking Badembraced science. I love it so much, in fact, that I wrote a book about it–“The Science of Breaking Bad"fromMIT Press–along with my co-author andBreaking Badscience advisor,Dr. Donna Nelson. It’s crazy to think that ascience-explainer articlethat I originally wrote way back in 2013 during the show’s fifth and final season is now a published tome that includes insider insight, in-depth research and explanations, and lots of fun trivia about howBreaking Badpulled off all those stunning yet scientifically accurate sequences with the help of Hollywood’s special effects....

Every once in a while, a trailer comes along that ramps your interest up from zero to sixty in an instant. Today, that trailer is forCatfight, a brutal satire starringSandra OhandAnne Hecheas two rivals who like to beat the hell and ruin each other’s lives. For years. This one had completely flown under the radar for me until now, but I’m officially all in. The film follows a struggling artist Ashley Miller (Heche) and a bitter, rich housewife Veronica Salt (Oh), two women who were close in college but quickly fell out of touch....

There are good reasons why some pieces of literature, even hugely popular ones, maybe shouldn’t be adapted to screen. But, that’s never stopped anyone from trying. Syfy is the first to take a visual stab atArthur C. Clarke’s 1953 science fiction novelChildhood’s End, which deals with deep and difficult themes about humanity, and what ultimately makes us unique as a species. Some of those themes will feel familiar, having been cribbed for countless TV shows and movies, but none have so far dared to go as close to Clarke’s original material as this three-night event series....

On this episode of Collider Movie Talk (December 18th, 2015), Dennis Tzeng, Clarke Wolfe, and David Griffin discuss the following: Last night, the highly anticipatedStar Wars: The Force Awakensopened and again has broken another box office record, it’s being estimated that the movie made between 50 to 55 million in its Thursday night showings beating the previous record holderHarry Potter and theDeathly Hallows Part 2which took in 43.5 million back in July 2011....

With directorGeorge Ratliff’sthrillerWelcome Homeopening in theaters and On Demand this weekend (it premiered exclusively on DIRECTV), I recently sat down withAaron PaulandEmily Ratajkowskifor a wide-ranging exclusive interview. Unlike some junkets where you only get a few minutes to talk with the stars of the film, when I sat down with Paul and Ratajkowski I had enough time to not only discuss the film, but also play something we call “Ice Breakers....

When it comes to the holidays, a classic series to look back on is theHome Aloneseries. Throughout the years, there have been a total of six movies in the franchise. Some are sequels while others are standalone pieces. Regardless of where they stand in the various timelines, they’re all centered around one theme: home intrusion defense. From the original traps crafted by Kevin McAllister to the ghost house ruse of Finn Baxter, theHome Alonefranchise has never shied away from creativity....

If you need some bone-crunching, blood-splattering martial arts action this spring,Headshothas you covered. XYZ Films and Vertical Entertainment have released the trailer for the film, which starsIko Uwais(The Raid) as a man with amnesia who must track down and fight his former associates in order to rescue the woman he loves. It’s a fairly straightforward premise, and while the film is nowhere near as as good asThe Raidfilms (click herefor my review from TIFF), I still want to see Uwais succeed....
