For five straight years, we’ve been immersed in intense Warzone battles. Call of Duty’s second venture into the battle royale genre (or third if you consider the Chinese version of CoD Online) has been a massive hit and remains one of the top-tier live games available.
At one point, Gwyneth Paltrow was frequently seen on the big screen, with notable films such as Seven, Shakespeare in Love, The Talented Mr. Ripley, and The Royal Tenenbaums gracing her resume. However, these days, she’s taken a step back from acting, dedicating herself more to managing Goop (with plans to eventually sell it) and other professional pursuits. Her last appearance in a live-action movie was reprising Pepper Potts in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. Yet, her break from cinema is about to end. It’s been revealed that Paltrow will return to acting with an upcoming film produced by A24, and she’ll be working alongside a talented co-star.
One of the most timeless elements of Edgar Wright‘s beloved horror comedy Shaun of the Dead is its repetitious jokes. However, an iconic comedic moment was nearly cut from the final movie. In a scene early in the film, there is a tracking one-shot of Shaun (Simon Pegg) going about his daily life as he walks to the local corner shop to buy a Cornetto ice cream. The scene is then revisited later during the outbreak as a nonchalant Shaun, unaware of the impending zombie hordes, makes the same walk as London descends into chaos. The joke helps establish the tone for the movie, but Wright was told the moment would likely be cut during the editing process.
As a movie enthusiast, I’ve always been captivated by Channing Tatum’s on-screen magic, but even he has his quirks – like the tendency to pilfer items from movie sets. However, when it came to playing Gambit alongside Deadpool and Wolverine, he had to resist the temptation as he was “petrified” of attempting to swipe the costume. It’s a role that Tatum has longed for since his early days in Hollywood, a project that sadly never saw the light of day. But this year, he finally got the chance to slip into the shoes of Gambit in a summer blockbuster, adding another delightful cameo to the film’s impressive roster.
An image depicting a scene from Marvel’s “Fantastic Four: First Steps” has surfaced on the web, offering fans an initial glimpse of what seems to be a faithful, functional costume design for The Thing.
