Dominic Purcell's departure from the CW'sĀ Legends of Tomorrow was announced in a somewhat strange way last month, with the actor blasting Warner Bros. before backtracking and claiming that his comments were a prank. Still, though, Purcell will be leaving the series after the current sixth season, and may return occasionally as a guest star. Showrunner Phil Klemmer has now added his thoughts to the news, and seems to be backing up the most recent stories.
TheĀ Texas Chainsaw Massacre reboot has had a troubled production to date, including a change of director last year that effectively resulted in shooting having to be restarted. The film is understood to represent a direct sequel to the initial 1974 Texas Chainsaw, and focuses on an aged Leatherface, and it now seems that things have progressed far enough for a test screening, but with a negative response to the current cut.
Since being released a few weeks ago,Ā Mortal Kombat has provided a solid success for Warner Bros., both in terms of streaming and box office impact, and has been well received by fans. We've recently heard about plans to go ahead with a sequel, but it appears that WB want the franchise to run for as long as possible. At least, that's according to insider Daniel Richtman.
Amazon's animated superhero showĀ Invincible was renewed for seasons 2 and 3 just recently, and it seems that we may be getting a great deal more than that, considering recent comments by comic book creator Robert Kirkman. The author, who wrote 144 issues of the written version of Invincible, told ScreenRant that he has storylines for at least five to seven additional blocks of episodes.
We're excited to finally see the Red Hood alias of Jason Todd turn up in live-action, after the Curran Walters version of the character was announced for Titans season 3. And according to sources close to WGTC - the same ones who told us a Green Lantern show was in development before it was announced - HBO Max are reportedly so invested in the antihero that they're developing a spinoff for him, which will presumably pick up subsequent to the upcoming events of this year's Titans episodes.
While Stephen King is a frequent recommender of movies and television shows, he has a much longer history as a go-to author for blurbs and tips for other novels. King, who published crime story Later a few months ago, and has another book on the way this year, singled out Christopher Golden'sĀ Road of Bones for particular praise, both for its terrifying content and impressive artwork.
While it's hard to imagineĀ The Boys topping the excesses of its second season, it seems that the upcoming third instalment of the Amazon Prime show is going to be the bloodiest yet. At least, that's according to cast member Laz Alonso, who plays Mother's Milk, as he talked about what fans can expect from new episodes of the Eric Kripke-run series.
Since being released in the US last Friday, the rebooted Mortal Kombat has had a pretty positive response from audiences, if not critics, and appears to be bearing out Warner Bros.' strategy of dual theatrical and HBO Max debuts. Moreover, the production had a solid weekend at the box office, taking in around $22.5 million, and is now the highest-grossing R-rated movie to arrive in cinemas during the pandemic.
DC have put out a number of horror-themed titles during its history, from the classic Vertigo comics to more recent Black Label and Hill House Comics imprints, with the latter led by Joe Hill. However, the publisher will now have a DC Horror brand, under which they're releasing a series based on the world of The Conjuring. What, then, can we expect from the upcoming book?
