Andrew Garfield may have become a household name when he was cast as Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man, but it was David Fincher's The Social Network that first saw him gain attention in Hollywood, with only a handful of supporting roles in low budget dramas under his belt before that point.
Robert Rodriguez is nothing if not a confident man, having spent the better part of the last 30 years blazing a one-man trail through Hollywood and doing it almost entirely his own way. He may have dabbled in franchise fare recently by helming Alita: Battle Angel and boarding the Disney Plus Star Wars universe, but the filmmaker still writes his own ticket when it comes to the majority of his projects.
As the landscape continues to change in the streaming wars, we've been seeing some major studios start to move further and further away from the theatrical model. Paramount+ have already gone public with the intention to focus largely on in-house exclusives that you can watch from the comfort of your own home, while branded blockbusters will make up the bulk of the company's big screen releases.
At this stage, you might be harder-pressed trying to find a Marvel Cinematic Universe alumni that hasn't been linked with an appearance in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness yet. The premise of Sam Raimi's reality-bending blockbuster means that nothing can be definitively ruled in or out; and the rumor mill has taken that notion and ran with it.
Dave Bautista is a recognizable name in the industry that's played a major part in several blockbusters to hit big at both the box office and on streaming, but he still hasn't been able to drag Gears of War out of development hell and make it a reality.
Everything in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is connected in one way or another, so it shouldn't be a surprise that a new theory put forward by ScreenRant offers that the Hawkeye trailer could offer an explanation to questions surrounding Steve Rogers' Captain America that were first brought up by the Eternals trailer.
Shortly after the release of Godzilla vs. Kong, it was revealed that director Adam Wingard had entered talks to helm the next installment in the MonsterVerse, which was rumored to be a new spin on Son of Kong. While we've heard next to nothing about the project since, that's pretty understandable when you consider the filmmaker's schedule.
The movie faded from memory awfully quickly after it was released in March 2018, so it's easy to forget how much of a hit Ready Player One actually was. A box office haul of $582 million makes it the fifth highest-grossing effort of Steven Spielberg's entire career, which is an impressive statistic when you consider he's the single most commercially successful director in the history of cinema.
If there's one thing Jeremy Renner has mastered during his tenure as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Clint Barton, it's staring stoically into the middle distance. A requisite for any star to dip their toes into the action genre, the key is to look heroic without veering into Derek Zoolander's Blue Steel, Le Tigre or Magnum.
If it wasn't for the pandemic, then Tom Cruise probably would have been to outer space by now, which isn't a statement you can make about a lot of actors. Last year it was announced that the star, along with his Edge of Tomorrow and American Made director Doug Liman, were partnering up with NASA and Elon Musk's Space X to make the very first feature film shot entirely beyond our atmosphere.
