New DVD releasecraig, daniel, farewell, james, makes, peace, speech

Much will be written about the finale of the Daniel Craig era of the James Bond 007 franchise in the next few weeks, as No Time to Die prepares to hit theaters, but the actor was looking to the past during a brief farewell speech to the cast and crew. “A lot of people here worked on five pictures with me, and I know there’s a lot of things said about what I think about these films or all of those whatever. But I loved every single second of these movies, and especially this one, because I got up every…

Lucifer Season 5 Episode 12 Review – Daniel Espinoza: Naked and Afraid

Netflix, New DVD releasedaniel, episode, espinoza, lucifer, naked, review, season

This Lucifer review contains spoilers. Lucifer Season 5 Episode 12 “Sometimes it feels as if the entire universe is against me.” I’m going to say up front that I honestly don’t know what to make of this episode, and from the opening scenes, something just feels off in this chapter of Lucifer. At the moment, no one fears the power of the celestials more than Daniel Espinoza, and remembering past history, it’s understandable why he feels this way. While the participants of Lucifer’s highly orchestrated charade may contend they did it for Dan, the truth revealed in “Daniel Espinoza: Naked…

Warning: contains spoilers for Line of Duty series six, episode two. From the Brink’s-Mat Robbery, to predatory sex offender Jimmy Savile, the scripts for police drama Line of Duty are peppered with mention of real-world criminal cases. Blending reality and fiction cements the show’s naturalism and feeds into each series’ themes.

The first episode opens just over a year since Vella was fatally shot outside her home, in which time no suspects have been charged. The officer leading the investigation is suspected…

Netflix, New DVD releasechozen, cobra, daniel, miyagi, season, secrets, teases

Cobra Kai Season 3’s arrival is nigh, mercifully ending the twenty long, eventually pandemic-permeated months that passed since Season 2; a hiatus recently made slightly shorter by new platform Netflix, which moved up the premiere to New Year’s Day. However, that hasn’t stopped the streamer’s influx of more exciting preview material, namely new footage that sheds light on a potentially explosive narrative teased in one of the previous clips, focused on a potentially sinister secret that the late Mr. Miyagi hid from Daniel. We’ve known for some time now that Cobra Kai’s third season will delve into the sequel side…

Cobra Kai Season 3 Clip: A Returning Kumiko Helps Daniel Connect with Miyagi

Netflix, New DVD releasecobra, connect, daniel, helps, kumiko, returning, season

The Karate Kid Part II distinguished itself from forgettable sequel contemporaries, with a radical change in locale and a focus on character development in lieu of retreading its predecessor’s plot. Consequently, Cobra Kai Season 3’s recently revealed focus on Part II—revisiting its setting of Okinawa and key characters Chozen and Kumiko—was exciting news. Now, a new preview clip reveals how Daniel’s trip will yield a surprising connection to the late Miyagi.   The clip spotlights the franchise return of Tamlyn Tomita, who reprises her Part II role of Kumiko (the now-prolific actress’s very first onscreen role,) in a scene that…

New DVD releaseconnery, craig, daniel, jackman, james, producers, tribute

With the death of Sean Connery at the age of 90, tributes from those connected to his career have begun to pour in. While the actor’s largest legacy comes from his time as the first (and some still say best) James Bond, the tributes span his career, and even come from corners of Hollywood who never worked alongside him. Here is a small sampling… James Bond producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli released a statement via the official 007 social media accounts. “We are devastated by the news of the passing of Sir Sean Connery. He was and shall…

New DVD releasebadlands, daniel

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought moviemaking to a screeching halt all around the world. For Daniel Wu, who works in both Hollywood and Chinese productions, it’s been about watching and waiting to see which side of the Pacific reopens their studios first.  “For me, it actually just feels like what it feels like between jobs,” says Wu. “It’s just been really long.” Most Americans know Daniel Wu from his groundbreaking AMC series Into the Badlands. Some might recognize him from his more recent roles in Tomb Raider and Geostorm, and a few may even remember him from Jackie Chan’s Around…

Into the Badlands: Daniel Wu On How The Series Became A Cult Hit

New DVD releasebadlands, became, daniel, series

Since AMC cancelled its martial arts-infused series Into the Badlands in early 2019, it has attracted a cult following with all three seasons available on Netflix. Is it too late to revive the show? Daniel Wu, leading man and producer on the series, is doubtful. “I would never say never but I think the ship has sailed on that one.” Wu played Sunny, the most lethal “clipper” in the Badlands. Into the Badlands was an original series set in a gun-free post-apocalyptic world where martial arts ruled supreme. Premiering in 2015, AMC cancelled it in the middle of the third…

The Blair Witch Project to Skyman: How Director Daniel Myrick Came Full Circle With His New Sci-Fi

New DVD releaseblair, daniel, director, myrick, project, skyman, witch

“Blair Witch, which I consider incredibly fortunate to have been a part of, does come with its own set of baggage,” says Daniel Myrick, one half of the duo who made the found footage phenomenon which scared the hell out of audiences when it was released in cinemas in 1999 and went on to change the face of horror as we know it. We’re chatting (via Zoom) in the context of Myrick’s new movie, Skyman, a documentary style sci-fi which feels like it could be real, featuring elements of found footage and starring relative unknowns Michael Selle and Nicolette Sweeney,…

The Teleprompter Interview: Daniel Mays ‘I’d jump at an Ashes to Ashes Return’

New DVD releaseashes, daniel, interview, return, teleprompter

‘He pops up absolutely everywhere doesn’t he?’ says Daniel Mays about his Code 404 co-star Stephen Graham. You could say the same of Mays. A draw on any cast list, between them in the last year alone they’ve appeared in almost 20 major titles – 1917, Good Omens, White Lines (Mays), The Irishman, The Virtues, Line of Duty, Save Me (Graham) to name just a handful. Why Mays and Graham are in such high and regular demand is no mystery; they’re two of our best. Mays has an instant affability on screen that he’s able to turn to tragedy or…

New DVD releaseblair, daniel, previews, project, skyman, trailer, witch

Skyman, a new film from The Blair Witch Project’s Daniel Myrick, is set to make its Earthly arrival, set to bring about more fictional-found-footage drama, as evidenced by the release of a new trailer on the occasion of the film’s acquisition by distributor Gravitas Ventures, which has release plans that are intrinsically of the COVID-19 era. Myrick, who wrote and directed the picture, has returned to his original wheelhouse with sci-fi offering Skyman, which essentially gives the arena of UFOs and close encounters the… well, Blair Witch-type disguised fourth wall treatment, manifesting as a pseudo-documentary. The trailer film debuted at…
