Dear Evan Hansen: Internet Reacts to Hollywood Treatment

New DVD release, , , ,
Universal Pictures just released the first trailer for its movie adaptation of Tony-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen, and the internet is having a field day over the casting of 27-year-old Ben Platt in the title role of teenager Evan Hansen. Platt, who won a Tony for his performance in the stage musical that features music and lyrics from La La Land‘s Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, played the role on stage for two years on and off, from the original “readings” of the work-in-progress musical back in 2014 through the D.C. workshop run in 2015 to Dear Evan Hansen‘s Off-Broadway and then…

Link Tank: The Scarlet Witch’s Treatment in WandaVision vs. Marvel Comics

James Comey Gets the Hero Treatment in New Showtime Series Trailer

New DVD release, , , , ,
We have our first look at Jeff Daniels as James Comey and Brendan Gleeson as Donald Trump in The Comey Rule. And to be honest, it appears eerie in more than one way. The new two-part miniseries event hails from Showtime and creator Billy Ray, who among other credits wrote Captain Phillips and the adapted screenplay to the first Hunger Games movie. So the true story aspirations of the former and dystopian vision of reality television stars in the latter appear to merge in this visibly stirring image of James Comey, the all-American hero on screen. The series will be…
