With a name like Meat Puppet, Eros V’s Wtf short was always going to turn heads. The story of a man-child, obsessed with toys, who finds himself possessed by a puppet, the film continues the director’s streak of creating some of the most exciting genre shorts on the circuit. A blend of comedy and horror, Meat Puppet has already scooped awards at SXSW and Neuchâtel and is now one of just five films shortlisted for this year’s Best British Short BIFA award. Riding the wave of this acclaim, we caught up with Eros to discuss how a conversation with The Jim Henson Company inspired the short, the unusual challenges actors David Jonsson and Máiréad Tyers had to master for their roles and the lo-fi techniques behind the magic trick of bringing a puppet to life on a shoestring budget.

You know that fake commercial in Tropic Thunder where Tugg Speedman and the Scorcher franchise keep coming back again… again… and again? That’s pretty much the Terminator franchise by 2019. Where over and over again it respawns and says “I’ll be back… but this time it’ll be different. It’ll be a re-imagining! Accompanied by another trilogy. No, this time we’re back with the old cast! And it’ll be like before!” It’s like Jim Carrey yelling at Matthew Broderick in The Cable Guy “I can fix it! I can make it cool again, Stephen!” But will they? For some! Not for all. This is the story of what happened to Terminator: Dark Fate. The film that may have killed the Terminator movie franchise for good.

When Terminator Genisys performed poorly at the domestic box office, Skydance Productions (which suspiciously sounds like Skynet) was left with a choice.

Christopher Nolan is a certified rockstar among cinephiles. His blend of blockbuster filmmaking with artistically satisfying storytelling has made him one of the most unique filmmakers to be working in Hollywood right now. While he still works in the genre-film sphere, Nolan tries to bring in something novel every time.

The Inception filmmaker might be one of the few filmmakers working now who can pull $100 million budgets for a three-hour biopic, but this level of artistic freedom is the result of the magic he has created with his collaborators. And none have been as consistent and foundational for the filmmaker as his brother Jonathan Nolan.

Oscar winner Colman Domingo says the second season of Batman Unburied: Fallen City, the superhero podcast from Spotify, Warner Bros and D.C., promises a revealing look into the mind of a grieving Bruce Wayne.

“This story, one that explores Bruce losing a friend and an emotional new discovery about his parents’ death, was exciting and challenging. I can’t wait for listeners to experience the twists and turns awaiting them,” Domingo, who voices the role of Batman, said in a statement on Tuesday.

A synopsis for the second season, to premiere Nov. 26, indicates Bruce Wayne and Harvey Dent launching a social program that rattles the Gotham City elites, while winning over the city’s newest masked figure, the Oracle of Gotham. But when Harvey goes missing, Batman is forced to descend into the city’s labyrinthian underground, uncovering a horrific conspiracy by a secret society that has ruled Gotham for ages,...

Tony Scott almost directed Henry Cavill’s Man Of Steel (Photo Credit – Netflix/Wikipedia)

Picture this: Superman but with Top Gun energy—blazing action, dizzying camera angles, and maybe even a volleyball montage. Turns out, Tony Scott, the mind behind Top Gun, was this close to directing Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel. Yup, the 2013 Superman flick almost had Maverick-level intensity.

PictureScreenwriter David S. Goyer dropped this bombshell on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, revealing that Scott and Zack Snyder were the final two contenders. “Chris [Nolan] met with about five directors, and it came down to Zack and another director,” Goyer shared. That “other director” was none other than Tony Scott. “There’s a version of a Tony Scott Man of Steel in some parallel universe. That’s a movie I would have liked to have seen.” Honestly, I am the same.

PictureSnyder eventually snagged the gig, bringing his gritty,...

Writer-producer Simon Kinberg is working on a new Star Wars trilogy, said to be Episodes X-xii, but reports also highlight how far off it’s likely to be.

As we’ve recently explored on these pages, Lucasfilm has spent the past five years announcing Star Wars films and then not making them. With the exception of TV spin-off The Mandalorian And Grogu, due in cinemas in 2026, precisely none of the movies announced by the studio in recent years have gone into production. Big names have been attached – Patty Jenkins, Taika Waititi, Shawn Levy and the like – but little else of substance has emerged.

To the list of names on Lucasfilm’s roster we can now add Simon Kinberg – the multi-hyphenate filmmaker whose addition to the Star Wars franchise was announced on the 7th November. The word is that Kinberg, best known for his work on the X-Men film series, is...

Eric Kripke created one of the best comic book adaptations of recent times with The Boys, which proved to be a major hit for Amazon Prime Video. He also created the paranormal drama series Supernatural, serving as the showrunner for five seasons before stepping down. However, Kripke was once attached to develop a television adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman.

While the Netflix version of the series received praise from critics, the earlier iteration developed by Kripke did not receive Gaiman’s approval. As a result, it isn’t surprising that the adaptation did not move beyond the initial development stage. Kripke opened up about the failed adaptation of The Sandman, and here is what he had to say.

For forty years, the movie that has come to mind whenever the title Night Patrol came up was a goofball comedy starring the Unknown Comic Murray Langston and Linda Blair – but now director Ryan Prows is aiming to give us another Night Patrol to think about.

There is a moment in "Deadpool & Wolverine" where Wesley Snipes, making his first appearance as Blade in 20 years on the big screen, says "There's only been one Blade. There's only ever gonna be one Blade." While Marvel Studios is currently working on a reboot of the franchise, the project has faced more than a few setbacks. So, for now, there is precisely one actor to play the Daywalker on the silver screen, and that is Snipes. Had things gone another way though, it might have been a different actor we'd now associate with the Marvel Comics antihero. That actor? Denzel Washington.

In a 2018 oral history published by Entertainment Weekly to commemorate the 20th anniversary of "Blade," screenwriter David S. Goyer explained that the studio, in this case New Line Cinema, was having trouble wrapping its head around the concept as it existed.

Scream King Justin Long (Barbarian) and WWE superstar Cm Punk (Girl on the Third Floor) have been set to star in an upcoming horror movie titled Night Patrol, THR reports.

Jermaine Fowler, Dermot Mulroney, Rj Cyler, Freddie Gibbs, Yg, Flying Lotus, Jon Oswald, and Nicki Micheaux will also star in the upcoming Night Patrol.

In the horror-thriller, “An LAPD officer (Jermaine Fowler) must put aside his differences with the area’s street gangs when he discovers a local police task force is harboring a horrific secret that endangers the residents of the housing projects he grew up in.”

THR reports, “David S. Goyer and Keith Levine are producing via the duo’s Phantom Four banner. Also producing is Josh Goldbloom, known for the recent V/H/S horror entries. James Harris and Mark Lane of Tea Shop Films (47 Meters Down) are also producing the movie, which wrapped principal photography in Los Angeles this week.

There’s an exchange in Star Wars: The Force Awakens when Rey and Finn are fleeing from stormtroopers and searching for a way to escape. Rey spots the legendary Millennium Falcon, declares it looks like “garbage,” and then quickly reconsiders: “The garbage will do!”

Increasingly, that’s the attitude some fans have about Disney’s Star Wars programming: “Look, we all know this isn’t fantastic anymore, but Star Wars is still Star Wars, and, therefore, it will do.”

To be fair, Disney’s Star Wars shows and movies remain far from space junk. Their titles typically get glowing reviews from critics, and generate box office returns and streaming ratings that other studios would envy (though at a high cost).

So let’s run through Disney’s Star Wars legacy to date, from The Force Awakens to The Acolyte, and see what conclusions might be drawn. Because several aspects of...

Ever since its release back in 1998. Wesley Snipes’ Blade has become a cult classic. The actor’s portrayal of the superhero in the late 90s left quite an impact on the genre. With the film following the story of a half-human, half-vampire warrior on a mission to protect humanity from the bloodthirsty underworld, fans all over the world were hooked to their screens. Although Stephen Norrington, Guillermo del Toro, and David S. Goyer brought the story to life, Fight Club director David Fincher was once wanted to helm the project.

Despite the filmmaker’s initial excitement and ideas for the movie, Fincher’s ambitious vision ultimately never made it to the screen. However, years ago, the producer of the show ended up revealing how the 62-year-old’s ideas had thrown everyone for a spin.

No matter how often it’s discussed, Man of Steel always feels like it deserves more love, it’s just that good! Among its many memorable moments, none has sparked more debate than the jaw-dropping scene where Cavill’s Superman takes a drastic turn and snaps Michael Shannon’s General Zod’s neck.

That moment has ignited countless discussions, and honestly, Cavill’s performance was nothing short of brilliant. And interestingly, he improvised a lot of it!

Season 2 of the The Sandman went into production last year, then had to be put on pause for a while due to the writers and actors strikes. Thankfully, The Sandman season 2 was able to resume production as soon as those strikes came to an end, and a couple months ago we heard that new cast additions include Esmé Creed-Miles (Hanna) as Delirium, Adrian Lester (Hustle) as Destiny, and Barry Sloane (Pleasureland) as The Prodigal. When Netflix ordered season 2, they said, “The Sandman will return with new episodes based on multiple volumes of the Neil Gaiman graphic novel to explore even more stories of the Endless.“

Netflix has shared a new behind-the-scenes clip from the upcoming episodes and shared by Deadline. In the new look, Tom Sturridge‘s character, Dream (aka Morpheus), is seen bonding with his siblings. Plus, the eponymous character meets a few other familiar faces from Neil Gaiman‘s comic book series.

A Marvel Cinematic Universe reboot of the Blade property has been making its way through development hell for the last five years, and if / when the script for that project is ever figured out and the new Blade can go into production, Mahershala Ali will be taking over the title role. While we wait to see how that situation is going to turn out, original Blade actor Wesley Snipes returned to the role – almost twenty years after the release of his last Blade movie, Blade: Trinity – for an appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine, which is currently enjoying massive success at the box office. Deadpool & Wolverine star Ryan Reynolds has called for Marvel to give Snipes’ Blade a “Logan-like send off” movie… and someone who has a pitch for just such a project is Beau DeMayo, who has worked with Marvel as writer / showrunner of the first season of the Disney+ series X-Men ’97.

Deadpool & Wolverine has reintroduced several iconic characters from older Marvel properties, including Evans’ Human Torch, Garner’s Elektra, and, most notably, Wesley Snipes’ Blade.

For those who might be less familiar, the original Blade trilogy holds significant importance in Marvel’s history. After Marvel filed for bankruptcy in 1996, Blade (1998) helped restore its reputation—not necessarily financially, but certainly in Hollywood and public perception. Blade was not only a financial hit but also set the standard for making lesser-known characters popular, leveraging an actor’s strengths, and crafting relatable superhero films.

Given this, Snipes’ portrayal of Blade is considered iconic, and many fans, including Ryan Reynolds, have taken to social media to express their wish for Blade to join the MCU, ideally with a “Logan-esque” farewell film.

However, the increased attention surrounding Deadpool & Wolverine has also brought to light some troubling aspects of Snipes’ past. Some fans are...

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ has brought back several legacy characters from older Marvel properties. Fans were excited to see Evans’ Human Torch, Garner’s Elektra, and most of all, Wesley Snipes’ Blade.

If you’re a bit younger, you’re likely unaware of how important the original ‘Blade’ trilogy is to the Marvel movies. Marvel filed for bankruptcy in 1996, but ‘Blade’ (1998) put them back on the right path – perhaps not financially, per se, but certainly in the eyes of Hollywood and the public. Not only was ‘Blade’ a financial success – it provided the blueprint on how to make an obscure character popular, how to build on an actor’s strength, and how to make superhero movies relatable.

Due to this, Snipes’ portrayal of the character is iconic, and numerous fans (including Ryan Reynolds) came to social media to express their desire to see Blade in the MCU, as it would be...

With Deadpool & Wolverine out now, we look at how a two-minute Deadpool test reel from 2014 led to a film that is about to change the MCU for good.

The general public was never even meant to see it, and yet the test footage for Deadpool has made more of a dent on pop culture than some multi-million dollar films with huge marketing departments behind them.

To this day, nobody has publicly admitted to leaking that footage in 2014. Some have pointed the finger at director Tim Miller; franchise star Ryan Reynolds has playfully hinted that he might have uploaded it to the internet that July. There are theories that the studio that commissioned it, 20th Century Fox, may have leaked it deliberately as part of an elaborate publicity campaign.

The actor, 61, riding high on the crest of monumental box-office successes, was not just any tempting fate; he was a visionary raising his wings and ready to soar into the frontiers of cinema. With a golden touch that turned films like New Jack City and White Men Can’t Jump into cinematic gold, Snipes aspired to simply overwhelm the audience—an ambition far ahead of its time.

But when it came to bringing his vision for Black Panther to life, the actor had a daunting task ahead of him. The dream, while imbued with the potential to redefine superhero narratives, suffered...

A new episode of the Black Sheep video series has just been released, and in this one we’re paying tribute to the late, great Donald Sutherland by taking a look back at the 1994 sci-fi horror film The Puppet Masters (watch it Here)! You can hear all about it by checking out the video embedded above.

Directed by Stuart Orme, who is quite a prolific TV and music video director (best known for his collaborations with Phil Collins), from a screenplay by Hollywood heavy hitters Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio (The Pirates of the Caribbean) and David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight), The Puppet Masters was based on a novel by Robert A. Heinlein and has the following synopsis: An alien spacecraft sets down in rural Iowa, and top-secret government agents Andrew Nivens and his son, Sam, are sent to investigate. Coming along is NASA biologist Mary Sefton, and together they...

"I remember reading one of the Deadpool comic books, and somebody asked Deadpool what he looks like. He said he looks like a cross between a Shar-Pei and Ryan Reynolds. I was like, I really, really wanna play this guy at some point," Reynolds said in 2009 of playing Deadpool. The actor, then known for his roles in films like "Van Wilder" and "Just Friends," would end up playing the part multiple times, but the journey to get a proper "Deadpool" movie made was a rough one that took well over a decade. It became a passion project for Reynolds that he championed every step of the way, ultimately resulting in one of the biggest R-rated movies in history.

Screenwriter Will Beall has talked about his unused script for Zack Snyder’s Justice League, and says it ‘owed a lot’ to Back To The Future II.

An entire book could be written about Zack Snyder’s Justice League, its difficult production, and its later re-edit. One of the first people to work on the 2017 superhero team-up film, though, was screenwriter Will Beall.

While 2013’s Man Of Steel was still in post-production, Beall was hired to write a script for Justice League – one that would ultimately go unused. David S Goyer was brought in as his replacement, and then Chris Terrio was later brought in to rewrite Goyer’s draft. Such is Hollywood.

Over a decade later, Beall has talked briefly about his involvement with the DC universe and his writing on Justice League in particular. He revealed that some of the ideas in his draft ended up in the finished movie,...

Netflix has announced a host of names joining season 2 of Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Sandman’ including Steve Coogan and Douglas Booth.

Also joining the cast are Ruairi O’Connor, Freddie Fox, Clive Russell, Laurence O’Fuarain, Ann Skelly, Jack Gleeson and Indya Moore.

Returning cast members include Tom Sturridge, Kirby, Mason Alexander Park, Donna Preston, Patton Oswalt, Vivienne Acheampong, Gwendoline Christie, Jenna Coleman, Ferdinand Kingsley, Stephen Fry, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Vanesu Samunyai, and Razane Jammal.

When the Sandman, aka Dream (Tom Sturridge) — the powerful cosmic being who controls all our dreams — is unexpectedly captured and held prisoner for over a century, he must journey across different worlds and timelines to fix the chaos his absence has caused.

Based on the beloved award-winning DC comic series written by Neil Gaiman, the series is a rich, character-driven blend of myth and dark fantasy woven together throughout ten epic chapters following Dream’s many adventures.

After spending decades in development hell, a live-action adaptation of the Neil Gaiman comic book series The Sandman actually made it into production and was released into the world as a Netflix series in August of 2022. (Read our review Here.) Season 2 of the show went into production last year, then had to be put on pause for a while due to the writers and actors strikes. Thankfully, The Sandman season 2 was able to resume production as soon as those strikes came to an end, and a couple months ago we heard that new cast additions include Esmé Creed-Miles (Hanna) as Delirium, Adrian Lester (Hustle) as Destiny, and Barry Sloane (Pleasureland) as The Prodigal. Now the names of several more new cast members and characters have been revealed:

Ruairi O’Connor (The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It) has been cast as Orpheus,” the poet, musician, and oracle, is the only...

Netflix is rounding out cast for Season 2 of The Sandman, adding Ruairi O’Connor as Dream’s son Orpheus, Freddie Fox as Loki, Clive Russell as Odin, Laurence O’Fuarain as Thor, Ann Skelly as Nuala, Douglas Booth as Cluracan, Jack Gleeson as Puck, Indya Moore as Wanda, and Steve Coogan as Barnabus, characters which hail from the comics’ Season of Mists and Brief Lives storylines

They join previously announced new cast members Esmé Creed-Miles as Delirium, Adrian Lester as Destiny and Barry Sloane as The Prodigal. They all join Tom Sturridge as Dream, Kirby as Death, Mason Alexander Park as Desire and Donna Preston as Despair who are returning from Season 1.

In Season 1 of the series, based on Neil Gaiman’s DC Comics series of the same name, when the Sandman, aka Dream (Sturridge) — the powerful cosmic being who controls all our dreams — is unexpectedly captured and held prisoner for over a century,...

“The Sandman” is adding several new cast members to its already growing lineup for Season 2, and these actors will be playing characters introduced in fan-favorite storylines from Neil Gaiman’s beloved DC graphic novel series, including Ruairi O’Connor, who has been cast as the son of Tom Sturridge’s Dream.

Netflix announced on its Tudum website Tuesday that O’Connor will play Orpheus : “the poet, musician, and oracle, is the only child of Dream and the muse, Calliope. Orpheus is an idealistic, romantic, young man – and very much his father’s son – until tragedy strikes and reveals to him the true nature of love.”

Also joining “The Sandman” cast for Season 2, per Tudum, are Freddie Fox as Loki, Clive Russell as Odin, Laurence O’Fuarain as Thor, Ann Skelly as Nuala, Douglas Booth as Cluracan and Jack Gleeson as Puck, all characters featured in the “Season of Mists” arc from “The Sandman” graphic novels.

Kevin Costner played Pa Kent in Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel. Costner’s role was as a pessimistic father, who wanted his son to hide his superpowers. Nevertheless, Costner shared some emotional scenes with Henry Cavill’s Clark Kent. Costner has now opened up about his Man of Steel role, joking that he should’ve read the script a little more carefully.

Zack Snyder received flak over the death of Jonathan Kent in the film, however, both Snyder and Costner defended the scene in the film. Pruitt Taylor Vince will follow in Costner’s footsteps as Clark Kent’s adoptive dad in James Gunn’s Superman.
