    What’s Maniac, Netflix’s New Series Starring Emma Stone and Jonah Hill?

    April 19, 2018 /

    A lot of time has passed since Emma Stone and Jonah Hill (looking strikingly sharp, by the way) shared the screen in Superbad. A decade after the coming-of-age teen comedy impacted pop culture, the 2 actors are united once more, this time for something a little different... Maniac, a black comedy produced by Netflix, will introduce Stone and Hill in a Black Mirror-like universe (although, there will definitely be some humor) as 2 strangers who start a relationship after becoming aware of a suspicious turn of events during the pharmaceutical trial they're participating in. Among the scarce details shared so far, we know Jonah Hill will portray a man "who lives a fantasy life in his dreams, but…

    10 Movies That Were Adapted Into Broadway Musicals (And How They Did)

    April 12, 2018 /

    The familiarity is there, but it still feels like nothing ever seen before. Tina Fey's smart and sharply amusing Mean Girls is now out on Broadway (and crushing it) and the immersing magic of staged performances is once more powerfully reminding the intangible sense of uniqueness it can bring to any story. Over the past, many silver screen successes have also had the privilege (or not) of being converted into musicals. While taking a two dimensional piece and turning it into a full-blown visual and auditory spectacle undeniably represents a challenge, some have done it with more flair than others...

    What Is the Controversy Around Roseanne All About?

    April 10, 2018 /

    Probe the TV industry and you'll hardly find that everyone agrees there isn't a problem with the rebooted '90s TV series Roseanne, or more precisely, the woman who has portrayed its main character for nearly 10 years. As Emmy voters prepare to spend the next few months deliberating over which shows deserve nominations ahead of the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards, ABC's Roseanne revival, with staggering season premiere ratings (18 million viewers, to be exact, followed by a still jaw-dropping 15 million for the second episode), is virtually sure to compete for a statuette. But in the light of recent contentious political statements made by its star, comedian Roseanne Barr, not all members of the industry, or even the…

    Fox Searchlight Invests in More Guillermo del Toro-Like Projects

    April 4, 2018 /

    Fox Searchlight feels like it's been betting on the right horse by distributing Academy Award-winner Guillermo del Toro's The Shape of Water as it plans to keep the winning streak running. On Tuesday, presidents of the company Gilula and Nancy Utley announced it had signed a new deal with the Mexican director that will encompass all live-action films to be written, produced and directed by del Toro. Strong believer that the filmmaker's vision is becoming increasingly popular, Fox Searchlight also decided to create a new genre label that will offer room for more horror, sci-fi, and fantasy projects from him as well as other artists.
