Ryan Reynolds Explains Why He’s Taking A Break From Acting

After wrapping production on AppleTV+ festive musical comedy Spirited, Ryan Reynolds revealed that he was planning to take a sabbatical from acting, having been working non-stop for close to three years, without even considering his business ventures away from the silver screen.

Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, Free Guy, Red Notice, The Adam Project and Spirited all shot in quick succession, so it’s definitely a smart move for the actor, producer and marketing mogul to take a short breather before getting back into the game.

Heat Director Reveals Surprising New Details About The Crime Classic

Michael Mann’s Heat is one of the best crime thrillers that there’s ever been, offering a pulse-pounding tales of cops and criminals that boasts a star-studded ensemble cast and the decades-in-the-making onscreen showdown between screen legends Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, one which more than lived up to expectations.

The Rewatchables podcast recently hosted the filmmaker to discuss the 1995 classic, where he both dispelled and acknowledged several longstanding rumors about the epic street-level saga. First off, he debunked the speculation that Keanu Reeves was in line to play Chris Shiherlis in Heat, a role Val Kilmer trained so hard for that his method of reloading rapidly while on the move was used as an example to show United States Marine Corps recruits how it should be done.

Netflix’s Acclaimed New Western Is Now Streaming

The Western might be nowhere near as popular as it once one, a far cry from the days when tales of cowboys, lawmen, robbers and thieves reigned supreme as cinema’s favored genre, but it’s always worth a watch when done right no matter the context.

A Fan Favorite Samuel L. Jackson Movie Is Now On Netflix

A movie becoming a cult classic before it’s even been released is a bit of an oxymoron, when it’s impossible to gauge the staying power of any project until audiences have actually had a chance to see it for themselves. However, Snakes on a Plane was an internet sensation from the second it was first announced.

The reasons for the film’s instant levels of fame and anticipation are simple; Samuel L. Jackson was set to headline a glorified B-movie that told you everything you needed to know about the plot from the title alone. Snakes on a Plane was a viral sensation long before the internet became a key component of Hollywood’s marketing techniques, and fans even willed several significant changes into existence.

Marvel Reveals Wild Timeline Tracing Ant-Man’s MCU Journey

Until the pandemic came along, Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man had the distinction of headlining the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s two lowest-grossing installments since the conclusion of Phase One. That doesn’t mean they’re not good movies, it just means that most audiences didn’t view him on the same level as some of the franchise’s heaviest hitters.

That’s set to change with threequel Quantumania, though, which marks the first feature film appearance of Jonathan Majors as Kang the Conqueror, the MCU’s next Thanos-level threat. Avengers: Endgame showed that Scott Lang is a pivotal part of the mythology after he initially came up with the time heist idea, and Marvel have now revealed a crazy timeline documenting his adventures.

An Action Movie With 0% On Rotten Tomatoes Is Taking Off On Streaming

You can barely turn around on any streaming service without bumping into a terrible action movie, such is the sheer volume of VOD efforts flooding the market on a regular basis. Fans are a lot more forgiving than critics, though, which is likely the reason why so many of them end up finding a spot on the most-watched lists of the various platforms available.

The latest case in point is Rogue Hostage, which boasts a handsome Rotten Tomatoes score of 0%, but can currently be found as one of the ten most popular films on Hulu, as per FlixPatrol. The presence of recognizable Fast & Furious star Tyrese Gibson might have something to do with that, although he doesn’t tend to deliver much top-quality work outside his comfort zone as part of Dominic Toretto’s family.

Having recently been announced as the voice of the title hero in Illumination Entertainment’s animated Super Mario Bros. movie, Chris Pratt followed it up by signing on to play Garfield in a new feature hailing from Academy Award nominated Finding Nemo writer David Reynolds and Chicken Little director Mark Dindal.

The Guardians of the Galaxy star is gaining something of a reputation in the world of voice acting, having already lent his talents to The LEGO Movie and its sequel, as well as Pixar’s Onward. Despite his A-list status, Pratt has proven to be a fairly polarizing presence online, so you can imagine how the internet reacted to the Garfield news.

Eternals Producer Explains Why The Movie Tells A Self-Contained Story

Not every installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is under obligation to nod towards future events, although the vast majority of them do contain at least a little bit of connective tissue to knit the overarching mythology even closer together.

The various trailers and TV spots have made it clear that the events of Avengers: Endgame have a major impact on Eternals, but the narrative itself is less concerned with what happens outside of its own purview. As an origin story for a dozen characters we’ve never met before in a timeline that spans millennia which already runs for two and a half hours, there’s more than enough plot to get through without the movie having to concern itself with the rest of the MCU.

Spiral Director Reuniting With Tobin Bell For New Horror Movie

Despite being a sequel to the Saw mythology that went to great lengths in the marketing to distance itself from Jigsaw, director Darren Lynn Bousman was constantly fielding questions about Tobin Bell’s involvement, or lack thereof.

As it turns out, the filmmaker was toying with the idea of a cameo from John Kramer right up until the final day of shooting, before he decided to let Spiral stand on its own merits instead. The presence of Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson propelled the ninth installment in the franchise to a $40 million box office haul, enough to push Saw past the billion-dollar threshold, and more content revolving around elaborate traps is in development.

Johnson described the blockbuster action comedy as “Hobbs & Shaw meets Miracle on 34th Street“, and Amazon are already touting it as merely the first installment in an entire shared universe.

The Rotten Tomatoes score has also rebounded slightly over the last couple of days, but jumping from 59% to 60% is hardly stellar stuff, although it has avoided becoming the cinematic universe’s first Rotten installment, at least for another few days.

After all, it’s the franchise’s most science fiction-driven launchpad for a potential new series since Guardians of the Galaxy, and Peter Quill’s band of misfits didn’t even touch down on Earth until the Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame double-header, but even then they were heading back beyond the stars as soon as Thanos had been defeated.
