  • Don’t Expect ‘Daredevil: Born Again’ to Cross Over With the MCU Movies Any Time Soon

    [ad_1]

    Scream 8 might already be in the works. Damien Leone offers an update on Terrifier 4. James Gunn insists the Amazonian TV series Paradise Lost is still happening. Plus, new looks at Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, The Vampire Lestat, and more. To me, my spoilers!

    Astronaut Down

    According to Deadline, Sam Esmail is teaming with AfterShock Media and Netflix on Astronaut Down, a feature film based on the comic book of the same title by writer James Patrick and artist Rubine. Written for the screen by F. Scott Frazier (XXX: Return of Xander Cage), the story follows Douglas Spritzer, “an astronaut selected to be launched into alternate realities on a desperate mission to save Earth from a horrific crisis that has our world on the brink of extinction. Unfortunately, it’s a mission where everything will go wrong, where Douglas’ training and very humanity will be put to the test, and where a deep-seated secret could sabotage everything.”

    Horrorstör

    THR reports Jonathan Levine (Tell Me Lies) has been hired to write and direct the film adaptation of Grady Hendrix’s Horrorstör for Searchlight Pictures. The story concerns an “Ikea-like furniture superstore named Orsk in Cleveland that becomes subjected to supernatural occurrences. To uncover the mystery, a group of employees sign up for a night shift, only to get way more than they bargained for, in a most sinister way.”

    A Little Slice of Hell

    Deadline reports David F. Sandberg is attached to direct A Little Slice of Hell, a horror film at Paramount based on a short story of the same name by John Goodrich. The story follows “two underpaid supermarket employees who realize that they should have read the employee manual after encountering a customer from Hell—literally.”

    Scream 8

    According to Variety, “insiders suggest plans are already in place” for an eighth Scream film.

    Terrifier 4

    Meanwhile, Damien Leone revealed on social media he hopes Terrifier 4 will enter pre-production this spring.

    The Mummy

    The mummy doesn’t appreciate being unwrapped in a new clip from Lee Cronin’s The Mummy.

    Yellowjackets

    Deadline reports Molly Ringwald has joined the cast of Yellowjackets‘ fourth and final season as Van’s mom, Vicky, “a recently recovered alcoholic trying her best to course correct her past.”

    Paradise Lost

    James Gunn corrected the Wonder Woman prequel series Paradise Lost is “definitely not” cancelled in a recent post on Threads.

    Definitely not. Jesus I go on Threads for the first time in weeks and it’s just one insanely wrong thing after the other. What is going on?

    Daredevil: Born Again

    During a recent interview with SFX Magazine (via Heroic Hollywood), Daredevil: Born Again showrunner Dario Scardapane suggested the series will not crossover with any of the MCU’s movie characters.

    I’d be into it, because I dig the comics! But no. That’s been kind of a fun and challenging thing. We know there’s that huge world out there of the MCU. This corner of it has crossovers. We’ve seen Daredevil in other shows. There are other characters that are going to be popping up in movies and stuff, and that all goes into the larger MCU of it all.

    The joke we make is, ‘Oh, those guys are uptown – we’re downtown!’ We kind of have a pocket that’s in this world of Hell’s Kitchen, in this world of New York. I always think that maybe these characters take little vacations into the larger world, but the story that we’re focusing on is really granular.

    Ghosts

    Spoiler TV has a synopsis for “The List”, the March 5 episode of Ghosts. Pictures at the link.

    Sam and Jay work to secure Woodstone B&B a coveted spot on a prestigious luxury hotel list, only to face unexpected chaos when a vengeful newly discovered bunker ghost disrupts a crucial visit. Meanwhile, Flower and Thor clash over who gets to call the shots in their relationship.

  • The Russo Brothers Say Steve Rogers Is Key to ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

    [ad_1]

    Legendary’s live-action Gundam movie expands its cast. Jennifer Tilly says there’s more Child’s Play on the way after the Chucky TV show’s cancellation. Plus, Scream 7 wants you to know it’s got blood. Spoilers now!

    Darkman

    In a recent interview with Screen Rant, Liam Neeson stated he has not yet spoken to Sam Raimi about a new Darkman movie, “even pointing out that ‘they made two’ sequels without him in the direct-to-video films.” Unaware the film was rumored to be a direct sequel to the original, Neeson “humorously mimicked a phone call between him and Raimi acting as though he couldn’t hear the filmmaker before affirming, ‘I’d love to work with Sam’ and is keen to see a modern take on the franchise.”

    Avengers: Doomsday

    Speaking with Empire Magazine (via Screen Rant), the Russo Brothers stated “Victor von Doom demands a certain tone” unlike anything the MCU has seen so far.

    We also run at the complexity and the difficulty of what these movies can do at a narrative level. I think we’ve found a new level of that in Doomsday. Victor von Doom demands a certain tone.

    The Russos also discussed Steve Rogers’ return to the MCU, emphasizing the character’s importance to the story.

    We have a special affinity with the character, we can’t see this narrative without his central role in it basically. The special place he holds among the ensemble, he sort of retains that moving forward.

    Gundam

    Deadline reports Jason Clarke has joined the cast of Legendary’s live-action Gundam movie in a currently undisclosed role.

    Two Neighbors

    ScreenDaily reports Ralph Ineson, Anya Chalotra, Chloe Cherry, Taz Skylar, William Hope, Jake Simmance, and Samuel Anderson will star in Two Neighbors, a “satirical thriller based on Aesop’s fable “Avaricious and Envious” from director Ondine Viñao. The story concerns “a struggling writer (Chalotra) and an insatiable socialite (Cherry) who become entangled in a dangerous conflict fueled by a modern-day genie (Ineson) who promises to grant their deepest, darkest wishes.”

    Celestia

    Deadline reports Thomas Jane will star in Celestia, a sci-fi thriller from director Joel Souza. Based on a script by Cory Todd Hughes and Adrian Speckert, the story concerns “a devoted but troubled father (Jane) who crash-lands on a remote planet. He must claw his way back from disaster while keeping his daughter safe inside their deteriorating spacecraft. But as he searches the alien landscape for answers and a path to escape, Graham begins to uncover signs that they may have been expected, pulling him into a mystery far more dangerous than the crash itself.”

    The Fields Are Watching

    Bloody-Disgusting reports Diane Guerrero, Juan Pablo Raba, Indhira Serrano, Laureano Olivarez, Laura Sofía Domínguez, and Norberto Rivera will star in The Fields Are Watching, “a supernatural horror film rooted in Latin American folklore” from director Diego Velasco. Based on a script Velasco wrote with his wife, Carolina Paiz, the story “centers on a grieving couple who inherit a secluded farm in Venezuela following the loss of their daughter, unaware of the dark forces they’re about to face.” Reportedly, the film is based on the Venezuelan legend El Silbón.

    Child’s Play

    In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Jennifer Tilly confirmed there are still plans in place for more Child’s Play.

    The television series just ended, but I know for a fact that there’s more Chucky and Tiffany in the works, the Gruesome Twosome.

    Evil Dead Wrath

    According to the Screen Guild, Francis Galluppi’s Evil Dead movie starring Charlotte Hope, Jessica McNamee, Zach Gilford, Josh Helman, Ella Newton, Elizabeth Cullen, and Ella Oliphant is slated to begin production this month in Auckland under the working title Evil Dead Wrath.

    Scream 7

    Speaking with Empire (via Bloody-Disgusting), Kevin Williamson stated Scream 7 “doesn’t really have that meta goal” of previous entries.

    This movie doesn’t really have that meta goal. It’s continuing the legacy of Sidney Prescott. It’s about her daughter. It’s about family. We said, ‘We’re gonna be less bloody. We kind of screwed up with that. I said, ‘I think we need more blood.’ And Neve was like, ‘I think you’re right.’

     

    Crystal Lake

    In a new Instagram post, showrunner Brad Caleb Kane revealed longtime Friday the 13th franchise composer Harry Manfredini is returning to score Crystal Lake.

    Clara and the Below

Much like the original, the new film will follow the titular Doctor Caligari, “a traveling mesmerist who journeys from town to town with a sleepwalker under his control, leaving a trail of grisly murders in their wake. When a young woman’s boyfriend disappears mysteriously, she believes that the enigmatic Caligari is somehow responsible. The problem is—nobody believes her.”

    Insidious 6

    Bloody-Disgusting has an intriguing new synopsis for Insidious 6.

    A trio of stalkers infiltrate a quiet suburb and force a new family into the astral plane, where they uncover a terrifying truth: the Further is bleeding into the real world.

    Terrifier 4

    In a recent interview with Den of Geek, Lauren LaVera confirmed she hasn’t “read any of the script yet” for Terrifier 4, but discussed her hopes for the alleged “finale.”

    I haven’t read any of the script yet. I don’t think Damien’s even done writing it as of right now. I’m sure he’s close to done based off things he has texted me and what he’s been telling the press, but no, he’s kept it completely under wraps from David, from myself, from all of the other cast and crew. So it’ll be a surprise.

    I want Jonathan to be alive; I want Gabbie to be saved; and I want some sort of retribution for Sienna, however that will look.

    I think our girl’s been through enough and she deserves a win, whatever it will look like for her. Whether or not she survives, I don’t know, but I think she deserves a win.

    She-Hulk

    Speaking of sophomore seasons of Marvel shows, Tatiana Maslany stayed incredibly vague discussing the potential return of She-Hulk with Entertainment Tonight.

    Obviously, there are She-Hulk stories from the ’80s all the way to now, and they continue to be written, so there’s a lot in that character that’s very exciting, and yeah, the comics are still being made.

    Primitive War 2

    Variety reports a sequel to Primitive War, last year’s film about dinosaurs in the Vietnam War, is already in “late development,” and plans to shoot in Queensland, Australia, later this year. Described as a “darker, more intense escalation” of the previous film that’s somehow also a “more grounded war epic,” the sequel concerns “a new U.S. platoon sent into an increasingly unstable valley, where competing kill zones, rival apex predators and secret Cold War agendas converge. As containment collapses, the mission becomes one of survival—and the cost of failure threatens to extend far beyond the battlefield.”

    Dragon Cursed

    Deadline reports Amazon MGM Studios has secured the film rights to Elise Kova’s fantasy novel, Dragon Cursed. “Set in a fantastical world amidst the last human stronghold against dragons in which every teenager must survive brutal trials meant to separate dragon hunters from the dragon cursed,” the story concerns “a young woman [who] enters the trials [while] hiding a deadly secret, placing her in the hands of the dangerous enforcer assigned to watch her.”

    The Mummy 4

    During a recent interview with Screen Rant, Oded Fehr revealed he has yet to be asked to reprise his role as Ardeth Bay in the upcoming fourth Mummy movie.

    I gotta tell you, man, I’m so excited that you’re excited. I have no idea. I haven’t been contacted. I don’t know anything about it. I know that the internet has been saying it as though it exists and it’s a done deal, but haven’t heard anything about it. So I’m hoping it happens. I’m hoping I get to be in it. But there’s nothing I can tell you about it.

    I agree. I hope so. I hope that happens. I can tell you that I love The Mummy. It’s made me into a working actor. I love the actors on it. I’ve gotten to see a few of them in the last couple of years, and I hope it happens, but I have not been contacted.

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day

    Elsewhere, director Destin Daniel Cretton told Comic Book he “wanted to do something that felt different” with Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth MCU Spider-Man movie and the eleventh overall since 2002.

    All the creatives involved when I came on board wanted to do something that felt different. Of course, it’s still the Spider-Man that everybody loves, but this is a new chapter in his life, and that tonal shift was something that was really exciting to me. It felt really different, and it was an extremely gratifying experience.

    Supergirl/Street Fighter

    Jason Momoa also revealed to Comic Book he spent more time in the makeup chair preparing for his role as Lobo in Supergirl than he did as the green-skinned Blanka in Street Fighter.

    Oh well, it definitely be Lobo. Yeah…I don’t know…I was covered everywhere.

    Tomb Raider

    In conversation with the Los Angeles Times (via Screen Rant), Sophie Turner stated the new Tomb Raider series shows how “unashamedly capable” Lara Croft is.

    It’s about her and her story and what drives her, rather than what so many people also love about her, which is how hot she is in the games and the movies. But I really want to show the other side. She’s so unashamedly capable. She is not a woman who hides her strengths at all.

    The Beauty

    Finally, FX has released a “this season on…” trailer for Ryan Murphy’s The Beauty.

    The Comedy Hour

    Deadline reports Tatiana Maslany and Tim Heidecker are attached to star in The Comedy Hour, a “late-night-themed dystopian satire” from director Colby Day. Set “five minutes into the future when modern America is on the brink of collapse,” the story will see Heidecker as Jimmy, “a late-night talk show host forced to produce his show through famine, fire, and plague. When the network assigns him a robot to be his co-host and help boost ratings, everyone in America loves the robot more than him. Maslany will play Priya, a corporate climber and Jimmy’s long-time producer.”

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day

    During his recent appearance on the Phase Hero podcast, Charlie Cox suggested he’s not in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, after all.

    I know they all think I’m in Spider-Man because I’m filming something in London, which I’m not, I’m not in Spider-Man.

    It Follows 2

    According to Maika Monroe, the script for It Follows 2 is “incredible” and “very different from the original,” and filming could begin next year.

    I was sent the script and I thought it was incredible. It’s also very different from the original. I feel like the original, it’s like a little more heightened and dramatic, and this…I think it’s really quite grounded and just sort of follows the story of these two women who are mentally dealing with a lot. I thought it was a really interesting take on it.

     

    Decibel

    A “tech-obsessed music producer” forces a struggling singer-songwriter to help her create “the perfect AI music algorithm” in the trailer for Decibel, a sci-fi/horror film coming to Apple TV and Fandango this November 7.

    Gobblefoot

    Elsewhere, a “professor of New England folklore” attributes a string of mutilation murders to “a mythical creature, half turkey, half Bigfoot” in the trailer for Gobblefoot. 

    Stranger Things

    Speaking to Empire, Matt Duffer also suggested Joseph Quinn does not return as the late Eddie Munson in season 5, despite recent comments from the actor.

    I love that Joe Quinn is toying with people! But no, he’s dead. Joe is so busy, anyway, that everyone should know he’s not coming back. He’s shot like five movies since! When the hell has he got time to come and shoot Stranger Things? No, sadly, RIP. He’s fully under that ground.

    The X-Files

    Ryan Coogler would “neither confirm nor deny” casting Danielle Deadwyler in his upcoming X-Files reboot, but told Variety that he’s making the reboot for his mom.

    Like my relationship with Rocky with my dad, The X-Files is one of those things with my mom. My mom means the world to me—she’s actually here tonight—so this is a big one for me. I want to do right by her and the fans. My mom has read some of the stuff I wrote for it. She’s fired up.

    Crystal Lake

    Filming has wrapped on Crystal Lake, according to showrunner Brad Caleb Kane on Instagram.

    Ghosts

    Spoiler TV has images from “Halloween 5: The Mummy,” this year’s Ghosts Halloween special airing October 30. Click through to see the rest.

    Deathstalker

    Composers Chuck Cirino, Bear McCreary and Slash have released a music video for the theme song to Steven Kostankski’s Deathstalker remake with singer Brendan McCreary, drummer Gene Hoglan, bassist Pete Griffin, and guitarist Omer Ben-Zvi.

    Yellowjackets

    In a new press release (via TV Line), Yellowjackets creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson revealed the series will conclude with its fourth season.

    After three incredible seasons, and great consideration, we’re excited to announce that we will be bringing the story of Yellowjackets to its twisted conclusion in this fourth and final season. We’ve always known there would come a point when the story would tell us it wants to end, and it’s our belief that our job — our responsibility — is to listen. Telling this emotional, wild, and deeply human story has been a profoundly meaningful experience and a true honor for us, and we’re so very grateful to the brilliant cast, crew and writers who have bravely gone on the journey with us to bring it to life. Most of all, we want to thank the fans who have stuck with us through every moment, mystery and meal — the Hive is nothing without you! We can’t wait to share the final chapter with you and hope you find it…delicious.

    The Creep Tapes

    However, The Creep Tapes has been renewed for a third season at Shudder. [Fangoria]

    Magic 8 Ball

    Deadline also has word M. Night Shyamalan will direct a TV series for Mattel based on its “Magic 8 Ball” fortune-telling toy. Co-created with Bad Falcuk, the series aims to “reimagine the classic Magic 8 Ball as the centerpiece of a high-concept, character-driven supernatural drama that blends psychological intensity with cultural intrigue.”

    Daredevil: Born Again

    During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Daredevil: Born Again producer Brad Winderbaum confirmed Elden Henson does appear as Foggy Nelson in the second season of Daredevil: Born Again.

    I actually haven’t seen the quote, but I can tell you he is in season 2. People don’t know what they’re allowed to say and what they’re not allowed to say, also. Do I play it coy? Do I be honest? It’s always a dance.

    In the same interview, Winderbaum also revealed Matthew Lillard plays a character named Mr. Charles.

    He plays a character named Mr. Charles. The story is about power. When Wilson Fisk takes over New York, not just as a mayor but as a king in a way, it puts him in a new class of power players on the international stage. Matthew Lillard’s character represents that. So he’s a bit of a new antagonist on the field, but he’s as influential in many ways as Fisk is. That power negotiation at a very high level of politics and international diplomacy is also fun to watch. He is dealing with Mr. Charles up here and Daredevil down here for different reasons. So he’s getting squeezed a little bit.

    The Walking Dead: Dead City

    According to Deadline, Raúl Castillo has joined the cast of The Walking Dead: Dead City as a character named Luis.

    Prism

    Deadline reports Millie Bobby Brown will star in Prism at Netflix, a new supernatural series produced by Rachel Brosnahan, Etan Frankel, Anthony Russo and Joe Russo, and Brown herself. Based on a short story by Nick Shafir, the series sees Brown as Cassie, “a woman with the unique ability to communicate with apparitions, who must uncover the cause of a newly discovered phenomenon that causes ‘visitors’ (ghosts) to appear all over the world before it’s too late.”

    Stranger Things

    According to Ross Duffer on Instagram, the fifth season premiere of Stranger Things is titled “The Crawl” and runs 68 minutes long. Episode 2 is titled “The Vanishing“ and runs 54 minutes, while Episode 3, “The Turnbow Trap”, is 66 minutes. Episode 4, “Sorcerer”, runs 83 minutes.

    The Copenhagen Test

    Finally, Simu Liu learns “his brain has been hacked”  by a “shadowy agency” in the trailer for The Copenhagen Test.

    Man of Tomorrow

    James Gunn has revealed a very interesting cover for his second draft of the script for Man of Tomorrow, which has led to speculation that the image is a nod towards the cerebral Superman villain Braniac.

    Weapons/Aunt Gladys

    During a recent interview with Fangoria, Zach Cregger confirmed the rumors of a Weapons spinoff starring Aunt Gladys are “not bullshit.”

    I was ready. I had it kind of in my pocket before the movie came out. It’s real and I’ve been talking to Warner Bros. about it. There’s a story and I’m pretty excited about it. It’s not bullshit.

    Teen Wolf: The Movie 2

    In other news, Tyler Posey confirmed Paramount shortly “abandoned ship” after the release of the first Teen Wolf movie in a new interview with People, but still has hopes that more will be made.

    We did a film for Paramount a few years ago now, and originally it was a three-picture deal, and then it sort of abandoned ship after the first movie. But everybody wants more.

    So I wrote the second film. I’m trying to get that one made, and then I have an idea for the third. Or we’re just going to do a TV series, but there will be more, and I’m going to spearhead it. I want it really bad.

    Untitled Tim and Eric Horror Movie

    Tim Heidecker also revealed he and Eric Wareheim are writing a horror movie in a recent interview with Variety.

    We’re actually writing a horror movie that is going to be much sicker than most people are going to want to watch.

    Peacemaker

    In further DCU news, James Gunn stated the season finale of Peacemaker “is as important to Man of Tomorrow as anything” during his recent appearance on House of R.

    I wanna make sure that people can pick up and watch something without having to see something before it… So, that said, episode 8 is as important to Man of Tomorrow as anything.

    Luke Cage

    Lastly, Mike Colter would neither confirm nor deny whether Disney+ has plans for a third season of Luke Cage during his recent appearance at the Edmonton Expo (via CBR). 

    I don’t know why people keep asking me this. There’s no signs. It’s not like they’ve just recently revived one of the Marvel Netflix shows.
