The world of “Star Wars” is expanding yet again. This week marks the debut of “The Acolyte,” an eight-episode drama that, like “Andor” before it, breathes new life into a world that is perhaps even more familiar than our own at times. The series, the first two episodes of which are now streaming on Disney+, is set 100 years before the rise of the Empire and tells an original story that is full of action and hints at more sinister forces at work in the universe.
Emmy Award winner Lee Jung-jae leads the cast as Sol, an experienced Jedi Master who reunites with Osha (Amandla Stenberg), his former Padawan who left the Order years before, to stop her long-lost twin from using the dark side of the Force to kill the Jedi she believes are responsible for the tragedy that ripped their family apart.

In the opening moments of Sweet Tooth’s very first episode, a deadly pandemic spreads and a new species of human-animal hybrids emerges. Over the course of the series, the third and concluding season of which is now streaming on Netflix, a crumbling society searches for answers, including to one very big question: Which came first, the hybrids or the virus? In the penultimate episode of Season 3, that long-standing question is definitively answered — and its consequences shape the show’s explosive finale.
Sweet Tooth viewers have watched deer-boy Gus (Christian Convery) grow from a vulnerable innocent into a leader. As Season 3 begins, he and Jepperd –– the mentor he calls “Big Man” (Nonso Anozie) –– venture to Alaska to find Gus’ mother, Birdie (Amy Seimetz), alongside Bear (Stefania Lavie Owen) and Wendy (Naledi Murray). The group of four soon, reluctantly, becomes five as Singh (Adeel Akhtar) tracks them down...

One of Netflix’s secret keys to success has been letting shows embrace their darkest elements. The overly managed shows that feel studio-noted to death always seem to fall flat. Yet Sweet Tooth has never really faced that problem. Very few shows can get away with the tone this comic-book adaptation cultivated in Season 1 or Season 2. Placing its story in the apocalypse and having an adult man protect a younger protagonist with special capabilities has rightfully drawn comparisons to The Last of Us. However, there’s something so endearing about Sweet Tooth that by the end of the final season, it has earned a place in Netflix’s Pantheon of great shows.

“All stories end. Ours ends here.”
Those are the Narrator’s (James Brolin) words as Sweet Tooth’s third and final season kicks off.
The opening minutes of the Season 3 premiere venture all over the globe and jump through time, from Thacker (Joel Tobeck) being confronted on his voyage a century ago to present day, where Gus (Christian Convery), Wendy (Naledi Murray), and Bear (Stefania Lavie Owen) are determined to cross the Rocky Mountains and make it to Alaska. You can watch the first seven minutes of the Season 3 opener of the post-apocalyptic drama series above.
Jepperd (Nonso Anozie) warns the hybrid kids about the many dangers they’ll face — like hostile humans and a harsh winter — but Gus confidently reassures the group that they’re going to find Birdie (Amy Seimetz) and “save the world together.” And you know what? That’s enough to garner Big Man’s support...

“Ghostlight” premiered at Sundance and will be released across the country this summer by IFC Films and Sapan Studios.

Over the last decade or so, Marvel has had a knack for snagging independent filmmakers with a lot of buzz, critical acclaim, and innovative creative voices to join their stable. Before James Gunn was at the helm of the "Guardians of the Galaxy" trilogy, he was the guy who got his start writing "Tromeo and Juliet" for Lloyd Kaufman. And he's not alone. Scott Derrickson, Jon Watts, Taika Waititi, Cate Shoreland, Destin Daniel Cretton, Chloé Zhao, Nia DaCosta, and so many others were still stars on the rise when Marvel came calling.
Fan reactions are typically divided with one camp worried this marks the end of their independent visions in favor of corporate-driven storytelling, while others are thrilled to see directors they love getting one hell of a paycheck. Theoretically, this should give them the creative freedom to make whatever film they want next, like the director's version of what...

When Mr. & Mrs. Smith was announced as a TV series for Prime Video in 2021, there were plenty of reasons to be skeptical about the project.
It was based on a movie of the same name that did reasonably well but isn't especially well-remembered.
The announced starring duo of Donald Glover and Phoebe Waller-Bridge was intriguing, especially considering that both performers were credited as creators.
Both had a history of starring in and creating successful series, including Glover with Atlanta and Waller-Bridge with Fleabag. Plus, Waller-Bridge served as the showrunner in the first season of Killing Eve, another prestige series about an assassin.
But then Waller-Bridge dropped out of the project just a few months after it was announced due to "creative differences," with Maya Erskine replacing her as the show's female lead. Glover and Francesca Sloane are credited as the co-creators.
Beyond that, the series had its premiere delayed repeatedly,...

When Donald Glover was first approached about the possibility of remaking Mr. & Mrs. Smith, he wasn’t exactly enthused.
“I don’t really do remakes,” he told his buddy, an exec at New Regency, which produced the 2005 original starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as married spies. Of course, he’d never actually seen the film, just the tabloid saga surrounding its stars, who’d later wed. In fact, Glover’s still convinced that was key to the project’s appeal. “When people are like, ‘I love this movie,’ I’m like, ‘What did you like?’ Not to say that the movie’s necessarily bad,” he says, “but I think it just had to do with the chemistry and what was happening between them.”
Donald Glover and Maya Erskine were photographed Jan. 29 at the Georgia Room in New York City.
Glover did eventually watch Mr. & Mrs. Smith, mostly out of curiosity.

As a followup to Atlanta and Swarm, Donald Glover adapting Doug Liman’s entertaining 2005 spy caper Mr. and Mrs. Smith for a television format is an unlikely choice. That said, there’s a certain timeliness to the premise of a married spy couple trying to survive missions and each other, ideally suited for every generation.
This iteration, created by Glover and Francesca Sloane, is a strictly millennial-geared update with a progressive heart and more romantic soul to round out its stealthy concept. Whereas this Glover and Maya Erskine-starring update likely won’t spur a pop culture impact as significant as the formerly-renowned Brangelina film did, Mr. and Mrs. Smith is a sizably entertaining and meditative spy thriller fit for a millennial demographic.
Set in bustling NYC, two stranger spies, John (Glover) and Jane Smith (Erskine), are interviewed for a potential spy gig by a mysterious agency they only speak to via texts.

Even by the standards of a Hollywood ecosystem where everything is IP, and IP is everything, the idea of adapting a TV show from Mr. & Mrs. Smith seemed odd. The 2005 action-comedy exists in the pop-culture memory less as a movie (though it’s excellent) than as the origin story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s relationship. Remaking it without them would be like rebooting Top Gun without Tom Cruise,...

Dan Levy admitted that he was too “busy” to finish watching The Idol last summer, especially after one of his scenes was cut from the HBO show.
The actor played Benjamin, Jocelyn’s (Lily-Rose Depp) publicist, in the controversial five-episode series, but his character appeared only in the first episode, and another scene never made it in the final cut of the show.
Now, more than six months after The Idol premiered in June, Levy made an appearance on Tuesday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and was asked by Cohen on behalf of a fan: “Why were your scenes cut from The Idol, and what did you really think of the show?”
Though the Schitt’s Creek star seemed to be a bit taken aback by the question, he said in response after giving it some thought, “I think it was only one scene that was cut.

Sam Levinson is a controversial figure on HBO after a bevy of risqué content that’s featured in his two notable series, Euphoria and his recent collaboration with The Weeknd, The Idol. Both shows deal with intense sexual content, and productions for both have been a hotbed of rumors and claims of toxicity as some cast and crew have allegedly quit. Amy Seimetz was a director on The Idol before she left due to creative differences with Levinson. She alleged that the showrunner wanted to amp up the spicy material and really push the limits of premium television. One production member reportedly stated, “What I signed up for was a dark satire of fame and the fame model in the 21st century…It went from satire to the thing it was satirizing.”

In an interview with Film Comment in 2020, actress/writer/director Amy Seimetz said that she used her ample salary from making the remake of "Pet Sematary" to make her feature directorial debut "She Dies Tomorrow," a dark fable about the nature of despair. "She Dies Tomorrow" was one of the unlucky 2020 features whose potential success was hindered by Covid-19-related theater closures, resulting in a combined box office take of less than $400,000 from a release on only 24 screens.
Not that a film like "She Dies Tomorrow" was a threat to, say, a Marvel film. Seimetz constructed an assertively sad meditation full of weeping, doubt, death, and fear. It imagines a world where depression is contagious and how humans' natural propensity toward utter emotional emptiness ultimately informs and colors every aspect of our lives.

Pet Sematary: Bloodlines is a supernatural horror film directed by Lindsey Anderson Beer, she also co-wrote the film with Jeff Buhler. The Paramount+ film is a prequel to the 2019 film Pet Sematary, which was based on a Stephen King novel of the same name. Pet Sematary: Bloodlines is set in 1969 and it revolves around Jud Crandall, who dreams of leaving his hometown but a dark family history will keep him from fulfilling his dream. Starring Jackson White in the lead role, the film has some great moments worthy of horror fans and if you also loved it here are some similar movies you could watch next.

There is one fundamental thing about every single Stephen King story. In able hands, all of them can be made into exciting cinema. Unfortunately, though, that is not the case with Lindsey Anderson Beer’s prequel of the 2023 horror film, Pet Sematary: Bloodlines. I am not exactly a fan of the 2019 version of King’s Pet Sematary, which was a rather generic adaptation that couldn’t quite do justice to the source material. It had reliable actors like Jason Clarke, Amy Seimetz, and John Litngow, who all did their best, but the film didn’t quite have the punch that was needed. Making a prequel to that clearly doesn’t make any sense, at least to me, but the latest obsession with turning a classic horror novel into a dull, mediocre film is too hard to avoid for some people, I suppose. And truth be told, we only fuel this...

Like all of us, Olivia Rodrigo is not interested in The Idol. The singer discussed The Weeknd and Sam Levinson’s now-canceled HBO series in an interview with The Guardian, subtly arguing that their portrayal of the pop machine failed to depict womanhood in the same powerful way as, say, Barbie.
“I don’t have the desire to [watch it],” Rodrigo said. “I remember walking out of Barbie and being like, ‘Wow, it’s so long since I’ve seen a movie that is female-centred in a way that isn’t sexual or about her pain or her being traumatised.’”
The Idol, starring Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye), was originally pitched as a satire on the music industry that follows Depp’s pop star Jocelyn as she frees herself from a toxic relationship with Tesfaye’s club owner/cult leader Tedros. However, when Euphoria head Levinson took over the show...

From the first screening of “The Idol” at the Cannes Film Festival in May, the warning signs appeared. Instead of the usually effusive ovation from the black-tie audience at the Palais des Festivals, tepid applause and awkward side-eye greeted the first two episodes of the HBO drama series, as Warner Bros. Discovery unveiled its rebranded streaming service Max in the U.S.
Social media was quick to weigh in with a less subtle verdict about Lily-Rose Depp in barely-there outfits as pop music star Jocelyn in the sexual thrall of Tedros, played by Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye. The graphic scenes included not just a writhing Depp in front of a camera demanding her sexual freedom, but Tesfaye choking Depp during sex.
“A Pornhub-homepage odyssey starring Lily-Rose Depp’s areolas and The Weeknd’s greasy rat tail,” wrote New York Times’ reporter Kyle Buchanan on X. “Love that this will...

Despite some reports otherwise, season 1 of "The Idol" was completed with only five episodes — and now, that's all the show will ever have. Variety reports that HBO has canceled the series, waiting not even two months after its July 2 finale. Co-created by Sam Levinson (who previously struck gold for HBO with "Euphoria"), "The Idol" is a Hollywood satire about Britney Spears-esque pop starlet Jocelyn (Lily-Rose Depp) and her romance with cult leader Tedros.
After a May 22 premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, "The Idol" premiered on HBO on June 4 and was panned by most critics (read /Film's own comparatively positive review here). It holds a mere 18 percent critical score on Rotten Tomatoes and audience scores are of the negative variety as well.

“The Idol” is over.
On Monday, HBO announced the collaboration between Sam Levinson and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye will not move forward with a second season despite previous suggestions that more episodes were indeed possible.
“’The Idol’ was one of HBO’s most provocative original programs, and we’re pleased by the strong audience response,” said an HBO spokesperson in a statement to Variety. “After much thought and consideration, HBO, as well as the creators and producers have decided not to move forward with a second season. We’re grateful to the creators, cast, and crew for their incredible work.”
“The Idol” has been a lightning rod for controversy for months. Back in March, before HBO dated “The Idol” for its June 4 debut, Rolling Stone published a report that alleged the production had been a “shitshow” with a budget that spun out of control after Levinson and Tesfaye decided to reconfigure the show while filming.

The World Class Sinner is heading to an early grave. “The Idol,” Sam Levinson and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye’s controversial HBO drama has been canceled after just one season, IndieWire has confirmed.
“The Idol was one of HBO’s most provocative original programs, and we’re pleased by the strong audience response,” an HBO spokesperson said in a statement to IndieWire. “After much thought and consideration, HBO, as well as the creators and producers have decided not to move forward with a second season. We’re grateful to the creators, cast, and crew for their incredible work.”
The news comes almost two months after the show’s one-and-only season, which premiered in June, wrapped after five controversy-ridden episodes. But even before it premiered, Levinson and Tesfaye’s series about the romance between a pop star and a cult leader received considerable attention, due to several allegations of a troubled development process.

There won’t be a comeback for The Idol.
HBO won’t move ahead with a second season of the drama from Euphoria creator Sam Levinson and Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye, who also starred. The series, starring Lily-Rose Depp as a pop star who falls under the sway of a Hollywood club owner (Tesfaye), suffered mostly negative reviews from critics, and viewership fell short of some other recent HBO shows.
