47 Ronin Sequel, a Future-Set Cyberpunk Film, Lands Director Ron Yuan

47 Ronin may not have made an impact as an action flick—released in 2013 headlined by a post-Matrix, pre-John Wick comeback Keanu Reeves—but someone over at studio Universal apparently has enough love for the medieval-Japan samurai film to greenlight a sequel—specifically a cyberpunk sequel set in the far-future. Now, said sequel has a director.   Ron Yuan, an actor who moonlights as a director, has been hired to helm the untitled 47 Ronin sequel movie, according to Deadline. The sequel, set up at Universal Pictures Home Entertainment subsidiary Universal 1440 Entertainment, will contrast starkly from the historically-based, Reeves-starring predecessor, touted…

The Flash Movie Script Grant Morrison Wrote Had a Back to the Future Vibe

Grant Morrison has been chatting about his time working on The Flash movie with its still-attached star, Ezra Miller. The two united to pen their own script for the Scarlet Speedster solo project back in the early months of 2019 after “a clash of creative visions” with the film’s previous directing team, John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein of Spider-Man: Homecoming. Morrison opened up about his attempt at writing The Flash in a new interview with Collider while promoting his new Peacock series Brave New World. “Ezra Miller and I wrote that [script] last year,” he said. “I thought we…

Massive DC Comics Layoffs Leaves Their Future In Question

WarnerMedia laid off hundreds of workers on Monday, and one of the hardest hit divisions was DC Comics, the intellectual property foundation that much of the company’s other success was based on. According to multiple published reports at The Hollywood Reporter, The Beat, ComicBook.com and others, Editor-in-Chief Bob Harras, Executive Editor Mark Doyle, Vice President of Global Publishing Initiatives Bobbie Chase, and Senior Story Editor Brian Cunningham were among those who lost their jobs. Doyle oversaw the successful rollout of DC’s Black Label publishing initiative, and Chase headed up DC’s extremely successful young adult graphic novel line, in case you…

Mulan and Tenet Show Competing Visions for Future of Movies

Historically, Labor Day is seen as one of the slowest weekends on the moviegoing calendar. Often considered the endpoint of summer in American culture, the three-day holiday before kids go back to school is usually reserved for abandoned films that never quite worked as intended for Hollywood studios. It’s the time of cinematic dregs. At least that was the conventional wisdom before 2020, and before Tenet and Mulan. Indeed, history has changed and changed again with Warner Brothers’ Tenet and Disney’s Mulan now set to open during the same Labor Day timeframe, but in markedly different rollouts. While WB announced…

Marvel Reveals Dark Hulk Future with New Trailer

The basic premise of the Incredible Hulk is that his greatest enemy is himself. Usually, it means that Bruce Banner is at odds with his big, green alter ego or that the Hulk’s rampages and bad luck tend to destroy any semblance of happiness in his life. In 1992, the team of Peter David and George Perez went more literal by having the Hulk’s greatest enemy be an evil version of the Hulk. The Incredible Hulk: Future Imperfect #1 introduced the Maestro, a version of Hulk from a possible dystopian future based on one question: What if the Hulk had…

Netflix’s Cursed Reinvents the Traditional Once and Future King

Netflix’s Cursed will (rightly) generate a lot of buzz for the way it injects a much-needed female perspective into the traditionally male world of Arthurian legend. The series gives a voice to a largely unexplored female character by focusing on the story of Fey girl Nimue, who is destined to one day become the Lady of the Lake. But in doing so, it also reimagines our understanding of Arthur himself, putting a fresh, new spin on a centuries-old figure. The Arthur we first meet in Cursed isn’t exactly what you’d call once and future king material. A young mercenary for…

Link Tank: Why Drive-in Theaters Won’t Be the Future of Movies

Drive-in theaters may be a solution for movie-goers while social distancing, but they’re not here to stay in the long run. “All at once, the few drive-in theaters left have found themselves with the perfect storm: Americans can’t sit close together, but they’re dying to get out of the house. Alongside high-tech modern lifesavers like Zoom and apps that bring you food, the humble, retro drive-in theater has likewise found itself in the awkward position of benefiting from a global pandemic: the venues are “making a comeback thanks to coronavirus” and “just might save the film industry.” But drive-in movie…

My Hero Academia: The Rise of Jiro and the Future of Dubbed Anime

Funimation is one of the leading companies in the anime business and they’ve been instrumental in bringing many popular series over to America, along with producing excellent dubs that are actually able to improve upon the source material. My Hero Academia and Attack on Titan are easily some of the biggest anime of the decade and Trina Nishimura voices two pivotal characters in the series, My Hero Academia’s Kyoka Jiro and Attack on Titan’s Mikasa Ackerman. The anime dubbing industry has had to roll with a lot of changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but it hasn’t stopped Trina Nishimura…

J.K. Simmons Confirms He’s Signed on for Future Spider-Man Films

This article contains spoilers for 2019’s Spider-Man: Far From Home J.K. Simmons has revealed that he’s signed up to star in further Marvel-Sony Spider-Man movies as J. Jonah Jameson. The Oscar-winning actor famously reprised his role from Sam Raimi’s web-slinging trilogy in last summer’s MCU instalment, Spider-Man: Far From Home – albeit in a twisted new way, leaving hard copy behind and outing Peter Parker as Spider-Man on a live dailybugle.net stream during a mid-credits scene. Likely due to a combination of iron-clad NDAs and uncertainly around the current industry timeline, Simmons says that both he and fans of the…

Disney Looks at a Future Beyond Coronavirus and Possibly Theaters?

The movie industry is a little bit edgy these days. That’s understandable since theaters throughout North America and Europe remain closed during the coronavirus pandemic, which shows no serious signs of abating. Yet the current tension boiling over has existed for years. As movie audiences continue to embrace streaming and direct-to-consumer content, movie studios and exhibitors have sometimes been at odds on how to respond. And if Disney CEO Bob Chapek’s earnings call this week is anything to go by, that tension is only going to heighten. “We very much believe in the value of the theatrical experience,” Chapek told…

Back to the Future Writer Steps in After ‘Plot Hole’ Debate Reopens

Back to the Future screenwriter Bob Gale has waded into a fresh round of debate over a ‘plot hole’ in the film’s story, almost 35 years after it was first released. The argument amongst fans over why Marty McFly’s parents don’t recognize him when he returns to 1985 began anew this week when Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn singled the film out in a discussion about ‘perfect movies’ on Twitter, saying “a perfect film can be different from a favorite film, or a great film. A perfect film is something that sings from start to finish with no…

Michael Shannon on New Film Losing SXSW Debut Amid COVID-19, Industry’s Future

It’s fair to say that our new reality caused by the coronavirus pandemic has upended everything we took for granted. Concerts and comic-cons are gone, movie theaters are closed, and for that matter movie festivals like SXSW are cancelled too.

Previously scheduled for a SXSW premiere, The Quarry just debuted on VOD, bringing an original idea and major talent like Michael Shannon and Shea Whigham to your living room. Based…
