I think it goes without saying that I'm kind of like the Horror Geek around these parts. As resident spookster, I have to take this moment to tell all of you not in the know about Trick 'r Treat, an indie anthology horror movie that, even ten years later, is constantly on the tip of many a scary movie-inclined tongue. In the past decade, while clamor for a follow-up has grown, all involved have remained mostly mum on the topic. However, every year, someone asks about it.
Ant-Man 3 has been nowhere to be heard or seen during recent Marvel events, never even escaping the lips of the almighty Kevin Feige once. People feared the worst and thought perhaps there may not be a continuation of his or Wasp's stories. But Paul Rudd's been telling the fans to make it happen and Marvel may have been keeping something from us all, per an intrepid and reliable rascal.
First we had Dumbo and now, we're gettin' Pinocchio. Disney's been remaking their old animated flicks into full-fledged live-action productions at an alarming rate and this particular adaptation of the wooden puppet's exploits has been floating around for an absurd amount of time, at one point even having Paul Thomas Anderson attached back in 2015. Now, we're learning that storied director Robert Zemeckis is in talks to take over the troubled film.
Benedict Cabbagepatch is definitely gonna have his hands full come 2021. Following up on an earlier leak we covered here, it seems that even more spicy bitlets of info about the upcoming Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness film may have dropped courtesy of the generous folks over at Reddit.
Vin Diesel, after being rather fast and furious for the last few years, is going to be focusing more on the latter rather than the former in 2020. Why, might you ask, am I winding up for a lame joke? Well, because Riddick 4: Furya is happening kids, and we're going back to his home planet of Furya - in case you couldn't tell by the title.
Everyone, we're diving into some fresh-out-the-oven news regarding one of the most-remembered teen sex comedies of the pre-Bush era: American Pie. You know, the smash hit that defined, in broad strokes, how comedy films would present themselves for a good half-decade or more? Get ready, because the lead and the false love interest from that film are, per a recent red carpet interview, more than open to another slice of that particular pie.
Today is gonna be a big day for anyone excited for Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness. I mean, I know I am, so my ears piqued right up when a big batch of rumors dropped online earlier revealing that we'll be getting not one, not even two, but three big bads. Yep, on top of balancing multiple realities, the titular hero will have to contend with a triple team smackdown.
Not all the news we cover can be good. Despite portraying one of Earth's mightiest defenders on screen, it appears that Jeremy Renner may not be as pure in real life. Everyone has their problems, after all and nobody is perfect. Per a court filing, though, it's been revealed that Renner's substance abuse issues have torn his family apart, as his ex-wife, Sonni Pacheco, has filed a motion to change the current joint custody of their daughter Ava to sole custody, stemming from disturbing allegations about the actor.
There's been an awakening. Can you feel it? Oh, sorry, I guess that was just my roommate getting ready for work! However, I did have a strong disturbance in my personal force when I saw some great news. That being that we're getting another (presumably final) Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trailer on Monday night, right smack-dab in the middle of a football game.
