Would McKay simply produce an Americanized English-language remake as a series? Or a new story eviscerating American capitalism a laSuccession? How involved will Director Bong be? Well, the man himself recently spoke withThe Wrapon all of this and more. And it looks like the HBO limited series take onParasitewill be: A six-hour expanded film....

When A-list actors make the move to directing, they usually do it with a high-profile project. It’s a high-risk, high-reward gamble where if they pull off their directing feat, they’ll open up a whole new avenue in their career, but if they fail, they’ll likely be stuck as an actor (not that being a rich and famous actor is a tragic fate or anything). However,Robert Downey Jr.is taking a slightly different approach for his directing debut....

Warning: Spoilers for the Sharp Objects finale below For those who hadn’t readGillian Flynn’sSharp Objectsnovel (or maybe even for those who have!), the final moments of HBO’s adaptation were absolutely bone-chilling. Teeth-rattling, even, as Camille (Amy Adams) realizes that the meticulously constructed flooring in her sister Amma’s (Eliza Scanlen) dollhouse is made of the missing teeth of the murder victims. As Amma sheepishly sees what Camille has discovered, she says, “Don’t tell Momma....

Amongst the many, many, many elements ofStar Wars: The Force Awakensthat have been harped on in the run-up to the film’s imminent release, it’s use of IMAX has not been particularly stressed. That all (arguably) ends today, as a featurette video about the use of the camera and format in the upcoming sequel has been released, withJ.J. Abramstalking about why the big-screen format was used in certain desert scenes.

Once upon a time, after announcing aretirement from filmmaking,Steven Soderberghcontinued pursuing the medium of cinema in a different, albeit still creative form:he spliced together a heady fan editthat weddedHitchcock’s horror classicPsychoandGus Van Sant’s fascinating but controversial shot-for-shot remake. By editing the two films together in the way that he does, Soderbergh creates a surrealistic movie of doppelgängers (very Hitchcockian, veryVertigo) that not only compares the two versions back-to-back but also examines what makes Hitch’s version undoubtedly superior....

Since its release in 1987,Fatal Attractionhas retained a well-earned slot on film history’slengthy list of best psychological thrillers.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s latestfinale was a jumbled mess of storylines that left viewers confused about the entire season. Producers' futile attempt to tie up loose ends with the primary cast fell flat. Atlanta’s most favorable newbie,AngelaOakley,hosted a charity gala that was the focal point of the episode, but unlike final events in previous seasons,it failed to deliver a kumbaya moment for the women.Ironically, while it didn’t unite the cast, the gala for the Charles Oakley Foundation was one of the most financially successful charity benefits in RHOA history, bringing in over $100K in donations....

I enjoyedF9quite a bit, but if there’s ever an opportunity to pivot and discussThe FacultywithJordana Brewster, you can bet I’m going to take it. The 1998Robert Rodriguez-directed film marked Brewster’s very first feature. If you haven’t seen it, what are you waiting for? Of all the late-90s horror movies that tried to catch thatScreamwave, it’s one of the absolute best and a movie I still can’t get enough of to this day....

Now thatBatman v Supermanhas opened, I’m wondering if other studios are about to unleash a deluge of marketing. In the scheme of things, we still haven’t seen much from Disney’sThe Jungle Book, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s about to change. The studio has now released a new featurette, which includes plenty of new footage from the upcoming live-action adaptation of the classic animated film. For those who are familiar with the story, it focuses on Mowgli (Neel Sethi), a boy raised in the jungle by wolves, who must go on the run when he becomes hunted by the jungle’s cruel overlord, Shere Khan (voiced byIdris Elba)....
