Hillbilly Elegy Trailer Touts a Transformed Amy Adams in the Ron Howard Netflix Movie

Hillbilly Elegy, director Ron Howard’s Netflix-bound next film, makes its Oscar aspirations quite clear upon the release of its first trailer. Indeed, we can already see how an impressive cast complements the clear head-turning moments of Amy Adams transformed before our very eyes as an addiction-addled mother amidst an unstable family dynamic. Howard, the ever-reliable cinematic craftsman and Oscar-winning director of A Beautiful Mind, stepped behind the camera for this movie adaptation of “Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis,” a 2016 #1 New York Times Bestseller memoir by J.D. Vance, adapted as a screenplay by…

The official trailer for the Monster Hunter movie has finally been revealed and it is…something. This Capcom adaptation is sure to turn some heads. Check out the trailer for yourself: “Behind our world, there is another: a world of dangerous and powerful monsters that rule their domain with deadly ferocity,” reads a description of the upcoming film. “When an unexpected sandstorm transports Captain Artemis (Milla Jovovich) and her unit (TI Harris, Meagan Good, Diego Boneta) to a new world, the soldiers are shocked to discover that this hostile and unknown environment is home to enormous and terrifying monsters immune to…

Pennyworth Season 2 Trailer Sets December Release Date

Pennyworth Season 2 is coming soon to Epix, continuing to fulfill the show’s touted remit as a prequel to the Batman mythos, notably with Alfred’s eventual arrival in Gotham City. Having debuted on July 28, 2019, Pennyworth is the product of creator/executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (The Mentalist, Rome) and executive producer/director Danny Cannon (CSI franchise), and served as a quick reunion of key personnel from another Batman prequel series, Fox’s Gotham, which had just ended its five-season run that April. However, any associations end there, since Pennyworth is set in London in the 1960s, therefore—after doing some quick math—eliminating the…

Marvel’s MODOK Trailer Reveals Weird Puppet Styling

I feel like we’ve come a long way in our acceptance of superhero concepts as a society. The X-Men movies were so reluctant to include giant robots until they were six movies in and to this day, we haven’t seen Wolverine wear his trademark yellow tights on the big screen. We’re ready for that now and we’re ready for Galactus and we’re ready for a space horse who can pick up Thor’s hammer and so on. Even as the main villain of the new Avengers video game, MODOK is always going to be a hard sell. While he’s a fearsome…

A Discovery of Witches Season 2 Trailer Centers Elizabethan Magic

This A Discovery of Witches article contains spoilers for the ending of Season 1. A Discovery of Witches, like Outlander, is one of the few big-budget genre TV shows that is also unabashedly romance. Based on the All Souls trilogy by Deborah Harkness, the screen adaptation follows Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer), a historian and witch who, after discovering a bewitched manuscript in Oxford’s Bodelian Library, is pulled further into a world of magic and danger she has been trying to avoid since she was young. In the process, she meets and falls in love with geneticist and vampire Matthew Clairmont…

American Gods: Shadow Moon Ascends in First Season 3 Trailer

We haven’t heard from the American Gods universe in awhile. In fact, it’s been over a year and a half since season 2 concluded and the show went through another round of … say it with us: behind the scenes drama. Well the fine folks at Starz have apparently decided that we’ve waited long enough. During the show’s appearance at New York Comic Con, producers unveiled the first real footage of season 3 as part of an exciting new teaser. You can watch the 90-second clip below.  There’s always a lot to unpack in just about every new bit of…

The Stand: Trailer Drops for New Stephen King Miniseries

We’re just over two months away from the Dec.17 premiere of The Stand miniseries on CBS All Access, and a full-length trailer has surfaced at last following a brief teaser last month. The trailer dropped this morning at the end of a 30-minute digital NYCC panel. The Josh Boone-helmed, nine-part series looks — from the scenes we saw — pretty damn faithful to Stephen King’s epic novel, which was originally published in 1978 and filmed once before as a four-part ABC miniseries back in 1994. Take a look: The book begins with the escape of a biological weapon — a…

The Watch Trailer: A Punk Rock Take on Discworld

Make no mistake: The Watch is inspired by Terry Pratchett’s Discworld offshoot series, The City Watch, but the BBC America series is very much its own animal, much the way Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency took its own direction from Douglas Adams’ novel on the same network. However, if the trailer coming out of New York Comic-Con’s virtual panel is any indication, there’s plenty of chaotic fun to be had in this version of the story. The eight episodes of The Watch‘s inaugural season will follow recognizable characters such as City Watch Captain Sam Vimes (Richard Dormer), the last scion…

Invincible: First Trailer Arrives for Superhero Animated Series

Robert Kirkman’s other monster creator-owned comic series, Invincible, is coming to streaming, and the show might be closer to arriving than we thought. They just dropped a trailer at New York Comic Con’s pandemic stand in, Metaverse. It looks surprisingly faithful to the book, and if Kirkman’s promise at the panel holds, we should be in for some intense superhero action. The trailer has about what you’d expect in it. Mark Grayson, played by The Walking Dead‘s Steven Yuen, is a fairly typical 17 year old, except for the fact that his father (JK Simmons) is the most powerful superhero…

Thor Trailer Brings Back Donald Blake

When Thor first joined the Marvel Universe, it was as Harvard Medical student Donald Blake, but after years splitting time between the two alter egos, Thor became a separate being and Blake left Asgard (mostly) behind. But in November’s Thor #9 by Donny Cates and Nic Klein, Don Blake returns and things are looking less than great for the good doctor. “‘Prey’ is maybe the most fun I’ve ever had writing at Marvel. Thor fans are going to lose their minds over this one and I can’t wait to unleash this terrifying beast on them!” Cates said. “Nic Klein is…

The Addams Family 2 Sets 2021 Release Date with Teaser Trailer

The Addams Family 2 is officially set to bring its wholesomely horrifying brand of animated dread back to the big screen for the 2021 Halloween season. The sequel, arriving via MGM’s United Artists banner, follows up the 2019 sleeper animated iteration of the often-adapted iconic 1960s spooky snap-happy sitcom, which went on to gross $203 million worldwide against a $24 million budget. Indeed, The Addams Family 2 was reportedly in the works less than a week after the first film’s October 11, 2019 bow, and signaled an October release date of its own for 2021. While the woeful year of…

Star Trek: Discovery Season 3 is almost here! We may be waiting a long time for some of our favorite TV shows to come back due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but, thankfully, Star Trek: Discovery is not one of them. The cast and crew finished production on the upcoming third season well before the coronavirus hit, which means we’ll be getting new episodes of the Trek show soon. The cast was just on hand at NYCC to tease next week’s Season 3 debut with a sneak peek at the episode’s opening minutes. Check it out… Here’s everything we know about…

Unsolved Mysteries Volume 2 Trailer Showcases Horror

The first thing you might notice in Netflix’s Unsolved Mysteries Volume 2 trailer is the music. The familiar theme of the original, classic series, has been twisted into a cross between the themes to the film Halloween and The Exorcist. We can still make out the melody, but it is far more haunting in its new mix. The same can be said of the show. The new iteration Unsolved Mysteries is haunting and serious, avoiding some of the cheesier aspects which endeared viewers to the original, which began airing in 1987. Unsolved Mysteries Volume 1 featured six episodes which began…

Selena: Release Date and Trailer for Netflix Series with The Walking Dead’s Christian Serratos

Popular-music-focused dramatizations have found new life, thanks to recent cinematic offerings like Bohemian Rhapsody and Rocketman, with many more currently on the industry docket. It’s a notion that Netflix might have taken into consideration with a television project it just unveiled, set to chronicle the story of Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, the 1990s-era Mexican-American crossover pop sensation whose rise was tragically cut short upon being murdered by her friend and agent. The Walking Dead‘s Christian Serratos temporarily put aside the zombie apocalypse to star on the Netflix television offering, titled Selena: The Series. The show is being released in “parts” (rather than seasons),…

The Show Trailer: Alan Moore Movie Teases Trippy Nightmare

Alan Moore has often seen his iconic comic book creations—be it Watchmen, V for Vendetta or The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen—get adapted as big screen efforts that typically end up being the focus of his own critical wrath, but an upcoming passion project film, bearing the deceptively-generic title, The Show, will likely avoid that fate, since he not only penned the script, but actually fields an onscreen role. Mitch Jenkins directed The Show off Moore’s script, continuing behind-camera work he did for three shorts from Moore’s 2014 anthology fantasy film, Show Pieces, to which this film bears a thematic connection,…

Free Guy Trailer: Ryan Reynolds is a Video Game Character Trying to Save His World

Free Guy, a comedy that centers itself in a socially-distant video game virtual landscape, ironically finds itself as one of the most prominent stragglers in the dwindling group of major movies still on schedule for a theatrical release in 2020. Indeed, the December-scheduled film continues to tout its plans to hit theaters with the release of a new trailer. Shawn Levy (Stranger Things, Real Steel) directed the film off a script by Matt Lieberman (Scoob!, The Addams Family) and Zak Penn (Ready Player One, X-Men: The Last Stand). Ryan Reynolds stars as the eponymous Guy, a suddenly self-aware NPC (non-playable…

Well, well, well, if it ain’t the season finale of The Boys, coming right up on the old radar! As we count down the seconds until one last insane hour of telly arrives later this week, a full trailer teasing events to come has now been unleashed, and we only went and got it for ya. The trailer for Episode 8, ‘What I Know’, finds Homelander landing in a field somewhere before cutting to Hughie warning Billy “we can’t just kill everyone!” Mr Butcher doesn’t appear to have the same qualms, replying “that is exactly what we’re going to do.”…

The Witches Reboot Trailer Arrives, Will Go Direct to HBO Max in October

“Witches, they’re real, and they hate children,” Chris Rock warns us in the first The Witches trailer. Yes, even with Everybody Hates Chris-style narration, Four Tops orchestration, and CGI animation, Roald Dahl’s message lives on. “It doesn’t matter who you are or what you look like, so long as somebody loves you.” You can rest assured that person will not be a witch. The children are entrapped in the bodies of mice, and the Warner Bros. feature adaptation of Dahl’s 1983 novel was supposed to be released in theaters. But it will hit HBO Max on Oct. 22. Just in…

Borat 2 Trailer and Release Date on Amazon Prime Confirmed

Borat 2: Subsequent Moviefilm is coming to Amazon Prime Video on Friday, October 23rd, and a first proper trailer for Sacha Baron Cohen’s hurriedly-filmed project attempts to give us an idea of what we’re in for, but …we probably still aren’t ready for what we’re about to get. The existence of a sequel to Baron Cohen’s 2006 comedy vehicle Borat! Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan was officially confirmed in late September after being produced in relative secret, and was first announced as Borat!
