Marvel Studios Countdown: There's a New Marvel TV Show But Nobody Is Talking About It

Posted: 19 Dec 2016 09:00 PM PST

Did you know there was brand new Marvel Cinematic Universe content at the ready? Marvel quietly unleashed an all-new mini-series last week and when has Marvel ever done anything quietly? Marvel’s Slingshot, a small scale Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. spin-off, was released on December 13 and if it wasn’t for an advertisement on Hulu, it would’ve flown right under our radar. Even the Marvel One-Shots got some measure of attention (“Item 47,” “All Hail the King,” to name a few), but Slingshot, even with its direct ties to Captain America: Civil War, appeared without much fanfare or fan discussion. Some of the blame has to be laid on the character herself. Slingshot aka Yo-Yo Rodriguez (Yo-Yo in the comics; Elena on the show) is a relatively new...

Alan Tudyk First Auditioned for 'Rogue One' From Nathan Fillion's House

Posted: 19 Dec 2016 07:30 PM PST

With its darker, grittier tone, the newest Star Wars movie, Rogue One, doesn't leave a whole lot of room for humor. After all, these are serious times for the rebellion, and if they have any hope at defeating the Empire, they'll need to find a way to take out its newest weapon, the Death Star. This is why Alan Tudyk's K-2SO stands out from the pack, as the new droid adds an immense amount of scene-stealing humor with his dry wit and carefree attitude. When we spoke to Tudyk ahead of Rogue One's release, not only did he reveal to us that a "surprising amount" of his lines in the film were improvised (see video below), but that his very first "audition" for Rogue One took place via Skype while he was hanging out at Nathan Fillion's...

'John Wick: Chapter 2' Trailer: When Will Bad Guys Learn To Leave John Wick Alone?

Posted: 19 Dec 2016 04:30 PM PST

John Wick: Chapter 2 could have gotten away with a trailer that was nothing but the footage of Keanu Reeves doing weapons training and no one would have any grounds to complain because, let's face it, that footage was all anyone needed to see. But they got a bit more generous and decided to release a proper trailer filled with plot and world building and everything. Either way, we all win. As the new trailer reveals, John Wick crosses paths with yet another wealthy gangster, only this time it ends up with the former hitman put on the defensive. There's a hit out on Wick now, meaning pretty much everyone with a gun is going to come out of the wood work to collect the bounty. And then they'll promptly get put back in a different kind of wood work, as John Wick is...

Posted: 19 Dec 2016 03:00 PM PST

"Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what’s left of society into chaos. K’s discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years. " That's the official synopsis for Blade Runner: 2049, the Denis Villenueve-directed sequel to Ridley Scott's iconic sci-fi film about a dystopic future where replicants - robots that are nearly identical to their human creators - begin trying to live amongst humans. As you can see from the first teaser trailer for the film, Officer K does indeed find Deckard. And considering how much time Gosling spends walking...
