The Wolf Man remains one of the horror genre's most iconic movie monsters and in 2017, there were plans for him to take centre stage in Universal's ill-fated "Dark Universe."
The idea of an McU-inspired shared world featuring these creatures crumbled when The Mummy bombed, leaving the studio with no other choice than to part ways with Hollywood heavyweights like Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, Russell Crowe, and Javier Bardem.
There's been some chatter about Universal attempting to revive its Dark Universe, but filmmaker Leigh Whannell's Wolf Man won't be part of them.
"As an outsider, I would say that The Mummy's Dark Universe, in my humble opinion, felt like it was reactive to what was going on with all the superhero stuff - the MCU and DC universe," producer Ken Kao tells Screen Rant (via FearHQ.com). "And we know there's been a lot of talk about what...

A while back, Blumhouse sent out a casting call in search of the right young actor to fill the role of a 10-year-old female character named Ginger in the Wolf Man reboot they’re making for Universal Pictures with The Invisible Man (2020) director Leigh Whannell. Now it looks like we know who’ll be playing Ginger, as Deadline reports that child actress Matilda Firth has been added to the cast of Wolf Man.
Firth’s previous credits include Hullraisers, Christmas Carole, and Typist Artist Pirate King. Ginger was described as being “Female, 10 years old, white. Blake and Charlotte’s daughter. Smart, precocious, and strong. When her family decides to leave the city for a quieter life in a remote area, she faces her biggest fear, the possibility of losing one or both of her parents forever.”

As long as there is a Universal Studios, there will be Universal monster movies. Because though tastes may change from generation to generation, moviegoers will always have a hunger for new iterations of Dracula, Frankenstein, The Invisible Man and the Wolf Man.
Universal hasn't always had a good deal of luck with reimagining these legendary beasts over the years. The Stephen Sommers-spearheaded "Van Helsing" experiment died a very loud and expensive death in 2003, while the "Dark Universe" was infamously devoured by a black hole of disinterest when audiences rejected Tom Cruise's "The Mummy." But Universal scored a surprise hit with Leigh Whannell's $7 million-budgeted, Blumhouse-produced "The Invisible Man" in 2020, which inspired the studio develop projects that didn't have to be tethered to a shared universe.
Next up in the newfangled classic monsters lineup was set to be "The Wolf Man" starring Ryan Gosling and directed by Derek Cianfrance.

We’re learning more about the upcoming sixth and final season of The Handmaid’s Tale.
The final chapter of the Emmy-winning Hulu series originally was to begin production in 2023 for a fall 2024 premiere, but that schedule, of course, was delayed by the strikes. In an interview with Deadline, Disney Television Group President Craig Erwich, who oversees content for Hulu Originals, said the sixth season now is set to begin production this summer for premiere in 2025. The series was renewed for its sixth and final season in September 2022, just ahead of its Season 5 premiere.
Season 5 follows June (Elisabeth Moss) in the aftermath of Commander Waterford’s (Joseph Fiennes) murder and the consequences she must face for her role in the gruesome slaying. At a minimum, she will have to face off with his widow Serena (Yvonne Strahovski), and on some level Gilead. But mainly, she will be forced to redefine her identity and purpose,...

By the time the fifth season of “The Handmaid’s Tale” rolls around, Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski) is already in dire straits. Still stuck in a detention facility in Canada, she has lost most of her allies, as well as her power and status in Gilead. But it’s after she learns that her husband, Fred (Joseph Fiennes), has been murdered that her world truly comes crashing down, as she’s left to fend for herself and her unborn child, in a foreign country and with the lingering fear that her former handmaid June (Elisabeth Moss) — who, alongside a group of other erstwhile handmaids, is responsible for Fred’s murder — could come for her next. While the grieving, desperate widow summons June to the battlefield in an act of retaliation, her main goal going forward, Strahovski argues, is to keep her head above water.

In this review, I shall give an account of the movie “Catch and Release,” which came out a while ago in 2006. The cast consists of Jennifer Garner, Timothy Olyphant, Sam Jaeger, Kevin Smith, and Juliette Lewis. I hadn’t seen it before, and the abstract did not sound too appealing to me as it was just shortly described as a rom-com about a woman who lost her fiancé and discovered many secrets after his death. But oh boy, was I wrong. The Preface The film starts with a funeral; Grady, the female protagonist’s late husband, died in a boat

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for The Handmaid’s Tale Season 5 finale, “Safe.”] The Handmaid’s Tale once again separates June (Elisabeth Moss) and Luke (O-t Fagbenle) at the end of Season 5, with the former on a train out of Canada and the latter taken into custody. That’s the result of the Canadians’ refugee hate reaching new heights, with a man running down June — and over her arm — with his car and Luke defending his wife. That man died, and with Mark’s (Sam Jaeger) help, June and Luke prepared to flee via train with other refugees. But with the police looking for Luke, he gave himself up, and June got on the train with Nichole … only to then run into Serena (Yvonne Strahovski) and baby Noah! Executive producer Bruce Miller breaks down the finale and teases what’s ahead. When did you know you wanted to end the season with June and Serena in a...

Major spoilers for "The Handmaid's Tale" season 5 finale are below.
As "The Handmaid's Tale" moves into its season 5 finale, all hope is lost. After a failed operation, June (Elisabeth Moss) lost her only chance to get her daughter Hannah back. Nick (Max Minghella) has refused to aid June in exchange for immunity because he has a family to protect, Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) is a slow-progressing but a still-confused villain in a suit, and Luke (O-t Fagbenle) is in deep, deep trouble.
Sometimes I find myself thinking that "The Handmaid's Tale" cannot get more depressing. The feeling doesn't linger too long because it always gets worse. This season has steadily plunged into darkness, leaving June more helpless on foreign soil than in Gilead. At least in Gilead, June was surrounded by evil and had no agency, no resources to help herself. All she could do was whatever it took to survive.

Elisabeth Moss on ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ Cliffhanger Finale and How to Interpret Her Final Expression
Click here to read the full article.
[This story contains major spoilers from the season five finale of The Handmaid’s Tale, “Safe.”]
After beginning its current season with the smirk seen ’round the globe, The Handmaid’s Tale ended with another telling expression.
The fifth season of Hulu’s dystopian series began by pitting June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss) against Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski). At the end of the two-episode premiere, Serena had brought June’s Gilead-captive daughter, Hannah (Jordana Blake), into view during a global broadcast of the funeral for her late husband, Commander Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes) — and shot the camera a knowing smirk intended for June. Thousands of miles away in Canada, June received the message loud and clear.
But the world of The Handmaid’s Tale moves quickly and, by the pivotal seventh episode, June was faced with the impossible choice of helping Serena deliver her newborn baby or letting her die when the pair were stranded together in No Man’s Land,...

Spoiler Alert: The story below reveals major plot points from Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale Season 5 finale.
Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale wrapped up its fifth season tonight and while a lot has changed for June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss), the season ends in ways similar to how it all began.
When viewers first meet June, she is torn apart from her husband Luke (O-t Fagbenle) and the life they shared with their daughter Hannah—a scene that’s imitated in the Season 5 finale. June and her daughter Nichole board a train for an unknown future in Hawaii as Luke is arrested by the authorities.
His arrest is unfair considering Luke was saving his wife from a man attempting to kill her by running her over in his truck but here we are—the world is crumbling. It’s worth noting the hired hitman was sent by Gilead to dispose of...

Episode one was elegant, showcasing a few storylines and really giving them space. Episode two is the opposite. It feels bitty and rushed, with the exception of a few longer sequences that I found perplexing. What do a state funeral and a ballet have in common that they should be married in a wordless, three-minute sequence? Pageantry, I guess, but why is that meaningful here?

For the first time in a long time – basically four full seasons – an episode of The Handmaid’s Tale has left me feeling hopeful for the fate of June Osborne. In the season four finale, she and her ragtag group of rebels – all refugees from Gilead – banded together to kill Fred Waterford, a man so consistently evil that no viewer will miss him whatsoever, not even a little.
In the season five premiere, it appears all but certain that June is going to get away with the bloodthirsty crime, despite her best and most aggravating efforts to get the Canadians to prosecute her. June is so frustratingly June sometimes.
“Everything tastes better when Fred’s dead”
The episode picks up where season four left off, with June (Elisabeth Moss) having just realised her promise to kill Fred. She’s in some kind of fugue where nothing and no one but her baby daughter Nichole exists.
In the season five premiere, it appears all but certain that June is going to get away with the bloodthirsty crime, despite her best and most aggravating efforts to get the Canadians to prosecute her. June is so frustratingly June sometimes.

A smirk and a growl.
Those were the dueling images The Handmaid’s Tale left for viewers when it returned.
The smirk came from Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski), with the once-reigning Gilead wife enjoying her winning moment when, during a global broadcast of her late husband’s funeral, she brings Hannah (Jordana Blake) into her televised appearance. And the growl came from June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss), who was on the receiving end of that message, as she watched her pre-teen daughter being used as a pawn.
But the actresses who play the starring women on Hulu’s Emmy-winning dystopian series say those physical reactions are just the tip of the iceberg as the show begins its penultimate season.
“The June v. Serena concept is not going to be as simple as you may think,” Elisabeth Moss, who also directed the first two episodes,...

What a horrible show. Just awful, terrorising stuff. The season premiere’s golden coda – that chummy scene of June (Elisabeth Moss), Luke (O-t Fagbenle), and Moira (Samira Wiley) bonding with Nichole over bath time – was no indication of where we were heading.The Handmaid’s Tale only shows mercy for the thrill of taking it away.
Episode one was elegant, showcasing a few storylines and really giving them space. Episode two is the opposite. It feels bitty and rushed, with the exception of a few longer sequences that I found perplexing. What do a state funeral and a ballet have in common that they should be married in a wordless, three-minute sequence? Pageantry, I guess, but why is that meaningful here?

Netflix’s new thriller series Devil in Ohio has shot to the top of its TV rankings.
The series, which is inspired loosely by true events, as well as Daria Polatin’s 2017 novel of the same name, debuted on the streaming service earlier this month.
Starring Emily Deschanel, Madeleine Arthur and Sam Jaeger, Devil in Ohio focuses on the investigation surrounding a satanic cult in rural Ohio.
In a three-star review for The Independent, Annabel Nugent wrote: “In lesser shows, dipping into the past is a clunky distraction from the action at hand, but the flashbacks of Devil in Ohio are welcome moments that pull back the veil on the mystery at pace and for once actually deliver on the darkness promised by a show’s premise.
“Certainly, Devil in Ohio does not reinvent the wheel – and no doubt it’ll be subsumed into the amorphous mass of Netflix adaptations sooner rather than later,...

The Handmaid’s Tale cast and crew were out in force at the Toronto Film Festival on Thursday evening for the world premiere of the two first episodes of Season 5 ahead of their release on Hulu in the U.S. on September 14.
In a Q&a after the screening, creator Bruce Miller announced that a sixth and final season had been greenlit.
Miller was joined onstage by executive producer Warren Littlefield as well as lead actress Elisabeth Moss, who directs this season, and other key cast members Yvonne Strahovski, Max Minghella, Bradley Whitford, O-t Fagbenle, Amanda Brugel and Sam Jaeger.
“It’s an honor to be showing it here in Toronto, where we shot the show,” said Moss, adding that Season 5 had been the hardest one to make so far due to its bigger scale and the challenge of shooting over the winter during the Covid pandemic.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, hit drama series has been renewed for a sixth -- and final -- season.

“I’m very glad we’re being able to do it on our own terms because I know how lucky that makes us — all the actors and creative people who put their hearts and souls into it — to close up the play the way you want."

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for all of Devil in Ohio.] Netflix’s new limited series thriller ends on a very unsettling note, which is what makes it so good. In Devil in Ohio, hospital psychiatrist Suzanne (Emily Deschanel) brings a cult escapee, Mae (Madeleine Arthur), into her home. The rest of her family is less than pleased, especially as the cult want her back and the teen exhibits strange behavior. By series’ end, Suzanne and her husband Peter (Sam Jaeger) are separated, and he’s living with the kids. Suzanne is with Mae… but learns, in the final moments, that the teen staged her own kidnapping and had willingly returned to the cult. (The psychiatrist rescued her.) Daria Polatin, who wrote the book inspired by a true story and serves as creator, showrunner, and executive producer on the limited series, breaks down that ending and addresses if there will be a second season after that cliffhanger.

“The lessons of the fire, as we reach for something higher,” a voice wails as images of flying crows and blood dripping down a rose’s thorny stem flood the screen. “With eyes we’ve all come to know, he’s the devil in Ohio.”
This theme song has a self-conscious ludicrousness that’s ultimately earned by the series it introduces — at least in one sense. Netflix’s “Devil in Ohio” isn’t so great that its missteps end up making sense, but it’s so schlockily unembarrassed by its excesses and its shortcomings alike that it feels difficult to critique.
Here, Emily Deschanel plays Suzanne, a psychiatrist whose particularly challenging new patient Mae (Madeleine Arthur) seems in urgent need of shelter after escaping a cult. Naturally, Suzanne brings her home — and, of course, Suzanne has three daughters from whom Mae can be acclimated into high-school life, or on whom...

Netflix is, once again, exploring unsettling, thrilling themes, this time through its original limited series "Devil in Ohio." Based on the bestselling novel by Daria Polatin, who also serves as an executive producer, the upcoming series features "Bones" actor Emily Deschanel along with "Parenthood" actor Sam Jaeger and "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" star Madeleine Arthur.
"Devil in Ohio" centers on psychiatrist Dr. Suzanne Mathis (Deschanel) as she temporarily shelters a teenager and begins to experience unusual and unsettling occurrences within her home. The storyline definitely sounds like it could be based in real life, but it isn't entirely drawn from a singular true story. With "Devil in Ohio" hitting Netflix on Sept. 2, let's explore the inspiration behind the streamer's new spooky series.

TVLine spoke with Deschanel ahead of this Friday’s premiere of Devil in Ohio, an eight-episode Netflix drama in which she plays Dr. Suzanne Mathis, a hospital psychiatrist who quietly shelters a cult escapee named Mae (played by Snowpiercer alum Madeleine Arthur). Suzanne’s world is soon turned upside down as the mysterious Mae’s presence threatens to tear her own family apart.

When The Handmaid’s Tale returns, June will be confronting the ramifications of the coup she pulled in the season four finale.
The ending had left the fate of Elisabeth Moss’ starring character up in the air, with showrunner Bruce Miller and Moss each speaking about the intentional ambiguity and open possibilities for season five. Would June (Moss) stay and risk her freedom, go on the run after what she did, or return to Gilead for a fight? After leaving viewers rudderless, The Handmaid’s Tale seems to be signaling where June is headed when Hulu’s hit dystopian drama kicks off. The show returns with two episodes on Sept. 14, followed by a weekly rollout.

What starts as a family drama quickly spins into a nail-biter of a thriller in Netflix‘s Devil in Ohio. Has Ohio psychiatrist Suzanne Mathis’ latest patient, a teen named Mae (Madeleine Arthur), been abused? She isn’t saying. “The show explores what trauma can do to people,” says Deschanel. Mae’s reason for keeping quiet: the time she spent as a member of a cult. Unable to find housing for Mae, Suzanne invites her home with her husband Peter (Sam Jaeger) and their three daughters. “It’s a huge ethical breach,” admits Deschanel, “but I understand that impulse; you’re worried about her going onto the streets.” Mae’s presence, and the unfolding mystery, “causes shifts [in relationships] in the family,” adds Deschanel. That’s when things get scary. “The question we’re always asking with Mae: Is she a force for good or evil?” says Daria Polatin, who adapted the...

June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss) feels no remorse for killing the monster who took away her country in the trailer for The Handmaid’s Tale season five. June not only admits to killing the founding father of Gilead, but she also confesses she “loved it so much.”
The trailer also confirms an epic battle between June and Serena Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski) is in store for season five.
In addition to Elisabeth Moss and Yvonne Strahovski, season five stars Bradley Whitford, Max Minghella, O-t Fagbenle, Samira Wiley, Ann Dowd, Madeline Brewer, Amanda Brugel, and Sam Jaeger. Alexis Bledel (“Emily/Ofglen”) is not returning for the new season.

Things are not looking good for June Osborne in The Handmaid’s Tale Season 5 trailer, newly released by Hulu. Among the many threats laid out in the clips is perhaps the most chilling realization that Serena Joy Waterford (Yvonne Strahovski) is growing more powerful in Canada. “Serena has the world behind her,” June (Elisabeth Moss) says in the trailer. “She’s bringing it here, Gilead.” But it’s clear both the women are afraid of what the other is capable of. June is alarmed by the threat Serena poses to the world at large (“she will always be dangerous”), and Serena fears for her personal safety following June’s vicious (read: cathartic as hell) murder of Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes). “Don’t you dare try to tell me you can protect me from her!” a sobbing Serena tells Sam Jaeger‘s Mark Tuello. And she’s right to be scared.
