HBO is renewing hit series The Last Of Us for a second season, the broadcaster announced on Friday. The show takes its cues from the critically acclaimed video game of the same name developed by Naughty Dog, and is currently out with two episodes garnering major approval from fans and critics in the last few weeks. Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann are the writers and executive producers on the show starring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey in the respective roles of Joel and 14-year old Ellie, the survivors of a monstrous fungal pandemic that turns its victims into hosts for an incurable disease that transforms them into parasitic monsters. Twenty years after tragically losing his daughter in the fallout, once again Joel must take on a renewed role this time as Ellie’s protector when he learns of her weeks-old false-positive infection, which could lead to a possible cure. According to […]
The panel over at Star Wars Celebration this weekend for upcoming series, The Mandalorian, were reluctant to reveal any footage in the live-stream beyond the indoor crowd (save for the ones who braved it with their phones and leaked it on YouTube). Nevertheless, Disney/Lucasfilm proudly revealed several first looks at some of the key characters in costume via social media which you can view below. After the stories of Jango and Boba Fett, another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The Mandalorian is set after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy far from the authority of the New Republic. The Mandalorian is but one of a sprawling content list coming to Disney+ when it launches on November 12. Jon Faverau hosted the first look photos below, and […]
Helping to fill-up the ‘Men On A Mission’ genre of thrillers is J.C. Chandor whose follow-up to A Most Violent Year now has an ensemble cast setting the stakes in Triple Frontier. Ben Affleck, Charlie Hunnam, Oscar Isaac, Garett Hedlund and Pedro Pascal lead the charge with a theatrical open on March 6 to be proceeded by a Netflix rollout on March 13. A group of former Special Forces operatives (Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam, Garrett Hedlund and Pedro Pascal) reunite to plan a heist in a sparsely populated multi-border zone of South America. For the first time in their prestigious careers these unsung heroes undertake this dangerous mission for self instead of country. But when events take an unexpected turn and threaten to spiral out of control, their skills, their loyalties and their morals are pushed to a breaking point in an epic battle for survival. Directed by […]
A harrowing mission awaits five men looking for a grand steal in the official trailer now online for director J.C. Chandor’s new crime thriller, Triple Frontier. For this, you could even say the road to the film’s completion was equally enduring at best – once housed at Paramount back in 2010 and serving as the starting point for a marathon development period that lasted eight years. With Kathryn Bigelow opting for the helm, years of limbo ensued with a revolving casting door that saw the likes of Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp, Will Smith, Channing Tatum, Tom Hardy, and Oscar-winning actors Casey Affleck and Mahershala Ali. By last summer and with the film then in the hands of Chandor at Netflix, Ben Affleck reportedly circled the project last summer before walking away to deal with sobriety issues which obviously continued the film’s stagnation. Things finally started taking shape back in March […]
Warner Bros. Pictures has undergone a bit of a facelift behind the scenes in the last several months following recent questionable results with its DCEU films. Thankfully all else continues with Patty Jenkins moving forward with the production of Wonder Woman 2 just as Gal Gadot rejoins actor Chris Pine from the original film and which may take some explaining for fans otherwise not knowing of the source material. I’m sure not so… color me intrigued, pictures and deets below notwithstanding (click for larger viewing). BURBANK, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder Woman’s next big screen adventure finds her facing an all-new foe: The Cheetah. Principal photography is underway on Warner Bros. Pictures’ follow up to the Super Hero’s first outing, last summer’s record-breaking “Wonder Woman,” which took in $822 million at the worldwide box office. “Wonder Woman 1984” will also be helmed by acclaimed director Patty Jenkins, […]
Nearly a decade after stirring crowds with festival shorts, the last five years have proven much more fruitful for SHEP Films’s own Zeek Earl and Chris Caldwell as their directorial feature debut, Prospect, readies for its SXSW premiere. The official trailer has since arrived ahead of its world premiere as part of the Visions line-up among Narrative Features, and host to footage of a thrilling western-style interstellar spectacle. A teenage girl and her father travel to a remote alien moon, aiming to strike it rich. They’ve secured a contract to harvest a large deposit of the elusive gems hidden in the depths of the moon’s toxic forest. But there are others roving the wilderness and the job quickly devolves into a fight to survive. Forced to contend not only with the forest’s other ruthless inhabitants, but with her own father’s greed-addled judgment, the girl finds she must carve her own […]
It’s funny. I haven’t had a lot of incentive to get into such a variety of streaming TV programs what with all the amime I’m already taking in. However, being already familiar with the work of actor Pedro Pascal and reading of his latest attachment to The Equalizer 2 for Sony Pictures and Escape Artists, I’m actually inclined now to check out Netflix’s Wagner Moura-led crime series, Narcos when I get around to it. But…yeah. Pascal is in talks now for a starring role opposite returning actor Denzel Washington whose 2014 presentation under helmer Antoine Fuqua not only generated box office promise, but garnered the celebrated actor his first-ever sequel. Due on September 14, 2018, Fuqua, as reported last September, is returning to direct the sequel further adapting its classic television show predecessor of the same name, centered on a former black ops agent who sets out to make the […]
The road to fruition for upcoming action thriller, Triple Frontier, has been a long and winding one. The revolving door of actors dates back as far as 2010 with recent news of Channing Tatum, Mahershala Ali, Tom Hardy, Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck all circling the film at some point this year until departing the project while it eventually transitioned from Paramount over to Netflix back in May. News finally broke on Wednesday for the film revealing talks are happening with actors Mark Wahlberg (Transformers: The Last Knight), Charlie Hunnam (King Arthur), Garrett Hedlund (Mudbound) and Pedro Pascal (The Great Wall) with actress Adria Arjona (The Belko Experiment) also starring. As Deadline writes, details are still nil while what is know is that the film will center its story in the notorious border zone between Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil where the Iguazu and Parana rivers converge. A Most Violent Year […]
Several years in the making, Legendary Pictures has finally enlisted its confirmed official cast for the upcoming China epic, The Great Wall. Actor Matt Damon is the A-list choice to lead the prominent cast for the new film which also includes popular film star, actor Andy Lau who just recently completed his latest role in the upcoming Sammo Hung actioner, The Bodyguard. House Of Flying Daggers and Hero helmer Zhang Yimou is taking on directorial duties for this one which is set to be a major undertaking as the biggest production in China ever shot for global distribution. The premise alone reads as familar ground for Legendary considering the monster thrillers it’s become known for in recent years like Pacific Rim and the upcoming Skull Island, so this one is bound to leave mark as another truly epic film worth eyeing next year. Read the news below! Legendary Pictures announced […]
HBO’s Game Of Thrones is one of those shows I usually end up having to watch in pieces, particularly because there simply aren’t enough hours of the day for me to enjoy much of anything. Thankfully however, I did get to enjoy the most recent episode featuring actor Pedro Pascal in last week’s episode (and I will not say what I saw, but if you saw it too, know that I felt your pain). I suppose this leaves more time for the actor to fill the shoes of his next role in Narcos, the new epic crime drama series from Netflix and Gaumont International. The new series was announced a few months ago and will see Pascal joined by actor Wagner Moura (Elysium) in a biographical series chronicling the life and death of Pablo Escobar, the ruthless cartel boss and known terrorist who also was a congressman, a family man […]
