Last weekend saw 2014’s Penguins of Madagascar added to the streaming giant’s library in the US. And subscribers are lapping up the film, as it’s currently sitting as the third most-watched movie on Netflix this Wednesday, according to Flix Patrol. Only recent original Outside the Wire and Thomas Jane thriller The Vanishing currently rank above it.
A spinoff of both the Madagascar movies and the TV series of the same name, Penguins of Madagascar follows the quartet of quirky flightless birds – Skipper, Kowalski, Private and Rico – as they get swept up in a globe-trotting adventure in order to foil the evil schemes of Dave the Octopus (John Malkovich). Cumberbatch factors into the film as Classified, a British secret agent wolf who works for North Wind, an all-animal international intelligence agency which also includes Belgian seal Short Fuse (Ken Jeong) and Norwegian polar bear Corporal (Peter Stormare).

Penguins was met with warm reviews when it came out, and it sits as the second highest-rated of the Madagascar series on Rotten Tomatoes with a cool 73% score – only Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted beats it, with its Certified Fresh 78%. The site’s Critics Consensus reads a little harsher than the score would suggest, though. “Penguins of Madagascar is fast and brightly colored enough to entertain small children, but too frantically silly to offer real filmgoing fun for the whole family,” it summarizes.
Unfortunately, the spinoff also ranks as the least-grossing of the DreamWorks animated franchise in terms of box office, though it still managed a respectable $373 million worldwide. Thanks to Netflix, though, countless users are now getting to rediscover the movie from the comfort of their sofas, whether they come for the voice of Benedict Cumberbatch or not.

Robbie Fowler is doing his best to keep his name and the sport of soccer in the news in cricket-mad India.When it comes to Hollywood comedy, there are few better characters than Leslie Nielsen’s Frank Drebin in The Naked Gun. A feature-length spinoff of short-lived but hilarious TV show Police Squad!, which was canceled after just six episodes in 1982, it still holds up today as a gut-bustingly absurd spoof of the small screen procedural.
Sequels The Smell of Fear and The Final Insult may have suffered from the law of diminishing returns, but the first installment remains as rewatchable now as it ever was, packed to the brim with one-liners, sight gags and the sort of deadpan slapstick that had first established Nielsen as one of the industry’s most reliable comic performers almost a decade previously in Airplane!
A reboot was first announced in 2013 with Ed Helms set to play Frank Drebin but failed to make it out of development hell, while the last official news came in 2017 when David Zucker revealed that the fourth Naked Gun would be more of a sequel than a reboot, with the plot following Drebin’s son.
However, the project might end up gaining traction once again from the most unlikely of duos, after Liam Neeson revealed that he’s spoken with Seth MacFarlane about potentially stepping up and headlining the latest chapter in the franchise.
“I’ve been approached by Seth MacFarlane and Paramount Studios to maybe resurrect the Naked Gun films. It’ll either finish my career or bring it in another direction. I honestly don’t know.”

Neeson and MacFarlane have collaborated several times in the past, of course, with the actor making cameos in both Family Guy and The Orville, while he played a supporting role in feature film A Million Ways to Die in the West. The 68 year-old is the same age now that Nielsen was the last time he played the bumbling cop in 1994, but the veteran action star is hardly renowned for his comedic chops.
While it could be a stroke of genius to cast him as the lead in an irreverent comedy along the same lines as The Naked Gun, surely the prolific MacFarlane could come up with an original concept instead of a reboot of an all-time classic.
All fans needed to hear was that Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson were teaming up for an R-rated action comedy and they were instantly on board for The Hitman’s Bodyguard, although it would be fair to say the movie never maximized the potential of the premise. Unsurprisingly, the chemistry between the leading duo stops the entire thing from sinking, with the plot about as standard and predictable as the subgenre can get, while the visual effects were frequently terrible even for a mid-budget pic.
However, it managed to rake in close to $180 million at the box office against production costs of just $30 million, so it was hardly a surprise when sequel The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard was announced in May 2018. Shooting wrapped almost two years ago, but the release date was pushed back twelve months as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic, with the second installment scheduled to arrive this August.
The first image from The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard has now been revealed, showing the two stars clearly caught up in a serious spot of trouble alongside a returning Salma Hayek and new addition Antonio Banderas, which you can check out below.
As you may have inferred from the title, the follow-up finds Reynolds’ former CIA agent forced to reluctantly team up once again with Jackson’s legendary assassin on a rescue mission when the latter’s wife is kidnapped by shady figures from her past. The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard has doubled down on both veteran action stars and serious gravitas, too, with Banderas joined by Frank Grillo, Richard E. Grant and Morgan Freeman in the ensemble, while The Expendables 3‘s Patrick Hughes returns behind the camera.
