Walker, Sanford Green, and Chuck Brown’s Harlem Renaissance-set comic book Bitter Root for Legendary Pictures. Set in the ‘20s, the book is about a family of monster hunters called the Sangeryes who are tasked with defending Harlem from supernatural threats, with Caitlin Rosberg referring to it as a “lively, beautiful comic about killing monsters” back in 2018. There are also some metaphors in play there, which could help lend this movie version some Get Out or HBO Watchmen energy (King starred in Watchmen!). On a similar note, Black Panther director Ryan Coogler is among the producers, as are King and the team behin...

"I suppose it’s a good time to start therapy." Frazer Harrison / Getty Images In the caption, Grimes revealed that she was hospitalized for a panic attack several days after the SNL broadcast. "Forgot to post these cuz I somehow caused myself to have a panic attack and went to the hospital yesterday which tbh was quite scary," she wrote. "I suppose it’s a good time to start therapy 😑😑😑." In the post, Grimes also said that Cyrus was "good live and so chill," and thanked the SNL staff for "being so kind and letting me sneak in as princess peach." ...

Edward NortonPhoto: Astrid Stawiarz/Getty Images for SiriusXM Just yesterday, we learned that Dave Bautista had joined the cast of Rian Johnson’s Knives Out sequel on Netflix, an apparent “thank you” gift from Ted Sarandos to Bautista for choosing Army Of The Dead over The Suicide Squad, and now another famous person—arguably a more famous person—has signed on as well: Edward Norton, who, like Bautista and Knives Out’s Chris Evans, has been in at least one Marvel movie. Interesting! This news comes from Deadline, which naturally doesn’t know anything about who Norton might be playing or what the plot of the Knives Out sequel will be, but we know it’ll involve Daniel Craig returning as gentleman sleuth Benoit Blanc and some kind of mystery. There will probably be some cleverness to it ...

Actor Tom Cruise is standing by his comments from a rant that went viral in December in which the "Mission: Impossible 7" star lashed out at crew members for breaching COVID-19 protocols while on set. Cruise in the leaked audio had admonished members of the film crew for breaking coronavirus precautions, threatening to fire them and saying, "I don’t ever want to see it again! Ever!" The actor said in an interview with Empire magazine that emotions got to him but that there was a lot at stake during the filming for the upcoming movie franchise installment. “I said what I said,” Cruise said in the magazine interview, according to the Los Angeles Times. “There was a lot at stake at that point.” “All those emotions were going through my mind,” he added. “I was thinking about the ...

In the aftermath of the show, Cyrus posted some photos of herself with Grimes in her Princess Peach costume captioned “She’s not a princess. She’s a queen.” Now Grimes has shared the same pics with her own assessment of the experience. With preemptive apologies to her fans, who she believes the comment will upset, she says in an Instagram caption that “my beautiful E” killed it. Cyrus is “good live and so chill!” (On Twitter she adds that Miley is “extremely siqué at music and as a human.”) And in less exciting news, she leads off the Instagram caption by saying she was hospitalized for a panic attack Monday. Here’s the whole spiel: Forgot to post these cuz I somehow caused myself to have a panic attack and went to the hospital yesterday which tbh was quite scary and I suppose i...
