In the high-stakes world of digital currency, Cold Wallet takes us on a comedic heist journey that tries to mine more laughs than crypto, but occasionally finds itself lost in the blockchain of its own storyline. The semi-true tale spins a narrative around Billy (Raul Castillo), a father whose financial downfall leads him to hatch a plot alongside hacker extraordinaire Eva (Melonie Diaz) and good-vibes-only martial arts instructor Dom (Tony Cavalero), to crack into the cold wallet of supposedly deceased crypto CEO, Charles Hegel (Josh Brener). Their plan? Kidnap Hegel, force him to give up his trillion-dollar cold wallet, and redistribute that wealth like modern-day Robin Hoods to everyone he swindled with his “Tulip” coin.
Crypto (from an outside observer) looks overly complicated and managing a “Cold Wallet” seems about as easy as acquiring codes to launch nuclear weapons. The Cold Wallets requires several passcode or key phrases to access...

It’s great to see the always terrific Raúl Castillo in a lead role, bringing both despair and tenacious grit to a luckless blue-collar father whose dreams of liquidity are shattered by a cryptocurrency scam. Cutter Hodierne’s thriller about three financial crime victims who go after the man responsible, Cold Wallet, doesn’t always make the tech talk crackle or exactly nail the tone he appears to be going for, of home invasion tension streaked with dark humor. But solid performances and a pulpy scenario that keeps you guessing make this a suspenseful watch.
While it’s clear that director Hodierne and screenwriter John Hibey know the crypto world, your mileage may vary depending on familiarity with meme stocks and doxing, securities fraud and blockchain. I confess it’s all Greek to me. Films like Dumb Money took a more playful route to the little-guy investor bucking against capitalist chicanery,...

It is with great joy and relief that we announce that Ozzy Osbourne is still alive. He’s pretty happy about it, too, but not terribly surprised by his own account. It was more of a shock for the heavy metal icon when one video popped up claiming that he did in fact die.
Although he’s certainly a mainstay in those awful annual celebrity death pools – now 75, Ozzy was recently diagnosed with Parksinon’s and led a hard road of drug and alcohol abuse – the Prince of Darkness says he’s staying put. As he addressed on his family podcast, “I put it on and I died! The thing on YouTube, which goes, ‘Celebrities Who Have Died Today,’ and there’s a picture of me.” For those who didn’t pick up on the nuances, Ozzy reiterated, “I’m not dead…I’m not going any-f*cking-where and I...

It’ll be just under a decade since Cutter Hodierne premiered (he won the Directing Award in the U.S. Dramatic Competition section) his tense modern day Somali pirate film Fishing Without Nets at the Sundance Film Festival in 2014. His second feature film appears to carry a Vice-like assignment vibe, as with Cold Wallet Hodierne ventures into the world of cryptocurrency but within the heist thriller genre parameters. Starring Raúl Castillo, Tony Cavalero, Melonie Diaz and Josh Brener, Cold Wallet would have gone in post sometime last March and is part of the selected projects at this year’s U.S. in Progress. The screenplay was written by John Hibey – who also worked on the short and feature versions of Fishing Without Nets.…...

Two WGA writers have most certainly not put their pencils down during the now-129-day strike against Hollywood studios. It is not against the guild’s rules to pen a… children’s book — especially one about the fight with the AMPTP.
Peter Cameron is the lead writer on “The Elves and the Shoemakers: a Grimm Little Tale of Givers and Takers.” He’s also a father who has struggled to find the right way to explain the strike to his 3-year-old son. So Cameron, whose dream “has always been” to write children’s books come retirement time (think more Roald Dahl than Dr. Seuss), dusted off his typewriter.
The picture book, a sequel to the Brothers Grimm’s “The Elves and the Shoemaker,” was co-written by a second WGA member with what Cameron called “priceless input” from a third. They prefer to remain anonymous; together, the group goes by “the elves.

Forget the pleasantries, today sucks. Paul Reubens, best known for his incomparable work as Pee-wee Herman, has passed away. The weird, wacky, and wonderful comedy figure is one of the most influential creatives ever to do it, and left in his wake is an irreplaceable void of silly, absurdist joy. Reubens' created the character of Pee-wee Herman while performing with The Groundlings, the legendary improvisational comedy troupe boasting alumni like Laraine Newman, Pat Morita, Craig T. Nelson, Jon Lovitz, Adrienne Barbeau, Conan O'Brien, Phil Hartman, Phil Lamarr, Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Coolidge, Will Ferrell, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Melissa McCarthy, Will Forte, Annie Mumolo, Kaitlin Olson, Edi Patterson, Tony Cavalero, and a ridiculous number of other eventual "Saturday Night Live" players.
Pee-wee Herman was an immediate hit and led to Reubens writing, producing, directing, and starring in "The Pee-wee Herman Show." He quickly became a household name, and the Pee-wee character would get another show,...

The awkward tension between youth pastor Kelvin Gemstone and his ex-satanist bestie Keefe Chambers has at long last been dispelled!
In Sunday’s penultimate episode of The Righteous Gemstones, Kelvin’s (Adam DeVine) recent near-death experience and abduction led him to finally plant a kiss smack-dab on Keefe’s (Tony Cavalero) lips just seconds before leading service for the family’s megachurch. The moment certainly caught Jesse and Judy off guard, but brother and sister were seen smiling as the three walked away to head out on stage. Bj’s knowing glance, however, indicated that he saw the kiss coming from miles away.

Finally, the most romantic relationship on The Righteous Gemstones gets its moment in the spotlight. Among all the Gemstone family couples, Kelvin (Adam Devine) and Keefe (Tony Cavalero) have always been the two people who seemed to genuinely enjoy being around each other the most, with no hidden agenda. For years they’ve been the series’s will-they/won’t-they pairing, the biggest roadblock seemingly being Kelvin’s unwillingness to admit that he is in fact gay.

Until now. In Season 3’s penultimate episode, “I Will Take You By the Hand and Keep You,” Kelvin seemingly chose to define their blurry relationship with their first kiss moments before joining his brother and sister to lead the service for their family’s evangelical megachurch.

Season 3 of "The Righteous Gemstones" isn't over quite yet, but HBO has already seen the light when it comes to the comedy series about a dysfunctional evangelical empire: The show has just been renewed for a fourth season. This shouldn't come as a huge surprise since the Danny McBride-created show is a raucous crowd-pleaser whose most recent season earned a 100% Rotten Tomatoes critics' score, but it's still exciting news for fans of the show. McBride's previous comedy series, "Vice Principals," was canceled after just two seasons, so it's great that HBO is letting "The Righteous Gemstones" spread its (very silly and stupid) word for at least one more season.
"The Righteous Gemstones" has actually hit higher viewership metrics in season 3 than in either of its earlier seasons, according to a press release from the network. Recent episodes are averaging 4.9 million viewers, making it McBride's most-watched show. For reference, "Succession,...

Plot: When the spoiled Gemstone children finally get their wish to take control of the Church, they discover leadership is harder than they imagined and that their extravagant lifestyle comes with a heavy price.

Danny McBride’s The Righteous Gemstones is back for a third season of hilarious hijinks of sacrilegious genius. While the second season of The Righteous Gemstones took things in a darker direction with insight into the youth of Eli Gemstone (John Goodman) with a downbeat ending, this new run is decidedly lighter with just as many dick jokes and brilliant insults.

Danny McBride's absurdist comedy, "The Righteous Gemstones" has been a shining dollop of comedy gold since the series debuted in 2019, bringing all of the horrible, rich white people antics of a show like "Succession," but injected with the same maddening hilarity found in his previous shows "Eastbound and Down" and "Vice Principals."

If you watched Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" and thought to yourself, "this is good, but I wish Austin Butler was animated and also had a gun and was solving crimes," have we got the series for you! With Elvis fever running wild, the King of Rock and Roll has a new adult animated show due to arrive soon on Netflix, featuring Matthew McConaughey in the voiceover role he was born to play — Elvis Presley, but a super spy.

The series has been in the works since 2019, back when it was called "Agent King," but with "Agent Elvis" heading our way faster than you can put on a new pair of blue suede shoes, here's everything you need to know before the King enters the building.

Eat your heart out, Austin Butler. As wild as Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" biopic got at certain points, it's safe to say it never quite managed to top the zaniness on display in "Agent Elvis," Netflix's new animated series that sees the King of Rock and Roll suit up to use his world-famous talents in a slightly different way. We've been following this oddity of a concept for quite some time now, with our first look at the adult-oriented and violent show last year promising the sort of alternate history mayhem that only animation can truly do justice to. Like a cross between "Archer," Hulu's "Hit-Monkey," and other similarly out-there premises, "Agent Elvis" promises to pack quite the punch.

Remember when Elvis Presley met Richard Nixon and the president gave the King a badge from the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, the DEA’s predecessor? Netflix’s new animated comedy series “Agent Elvis” takes that surreal premise and runs with it, turning Elvis into a secret agent who travels the world battling threats to the U.S. of A. under the cover of his job as the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. It’s like “Archer,” with a Tupelo twist.
On Wednesday, Netflix revealed a trailer for the series, which premieres Friday, March 17, and announced the rest of the voice cast. In addition to the previously announced Matthew McConaughey – who lends his iconic drawl to Elvis; there’s no Austin Butler-style transformation going on here – the main cast consists of Kaitlin Olson, Johnny Knoxville, Niecy Nash, and Tom Kenny, with Don Cheadle as “The Commander,” the...

Jack Black has appeared in a ton of movies since making his film debut in the early 1990s. The actor has such a distinctive comedic style and onscreen presence that it’s easy to see why his fans have remained so loyal over the years. So it’s wild to think that, had he not signed on for one of his most iconic roles, screenwriter Mike White wouldn’t have made School of Rock at all.
‘School of Rock’ is one of Jack Black’s most beloved movies
Ask any fan of Black’s what their favorite role of the actor’s is, and a few highlights will likely rise to the top. Early on, Black broke through with standout supporting turns in movies like High Fidelity and Orange County.

Pistachio mouthwash? Go for it. Salty chocolate balls? You go, Glen Coco. If you like it, I applaud that you are living your best life. But, despite all of those well-wishes, I am not...
