Alan Ritchson is slowly becoming a big name in the industry with back-to-back scene-stealing roles in big franchises. The actor is leading the Reacher series on Amazon as the titular character. Many have called him the definite version of Jack Reacher due to his towering height and bulky physique. He has also starred in other successful projects such as Fast X and Titans.

However, if DC does not end up casting him in the Gunn-verse, Marvel fans have started eyeing him for a major X-Men character.

Daniela Melchior is set to join the ensemble of mystery thriller American Sweatshop, starring Lili Reinhart. Producers include Barry Levinson and Tom Fontana. Uta Briesewitz will direct.
In a device driven world, American Sweatshop will take a look at the toll of social media through the eyes of Daisy Moriarty (Reinhart), who while dealing with a chaotic personal life, finds herself sucked into the underbelly of the internet. Moriarty, and a motley group of co-workers, toil in a cottage industry of agencies that evaluate harmful and offensive pictures and videos uploaded to social media. With detached caution and a deranged sense of humor, they examine the millions of posts that get “flagged for review.” But one particularly violent video grabs hold of Daisy, luring her out of this office, away from the safety of her keyboard and into a dangerous world as she obsessively seeks to hold someone accountable.

When we imagine a Hollywood casting process, we often visualize days and weeks of auditions. But surprisingly, it wasn’t the case for WWE legend John Cena, when he joined the Fast & Furious franchise as Jakob Toretto in the 2019 installment. Apparently, for Cena, it was just a meeting with Vin Diesel that led to his unexpected casting announcement on livestream.

Initially having no conversation about the film, Cena admitted to being flabbergasted when Diesel suddenly announced his appearance in Fast & Furious 9 through an Instagram livestream.

When Blade lines up a bazooka that once belonged to the Punisher in "Deadpool & Wolverine," Deadpool rightfully asks, "Which Punisher? There's been like five of them." It's certainly true that the Punisher is one of the most recast Marvel characters, from Dolph Lundgren's 1989 Punisher to the current Punisher, played by Jon Bernthal. But perhaps the most underrated Punisher is the one played by Thomas Jane in the 2004 movie, which features an unforgettable fight scene between the Punisher and the Russian, played by Kevin Nash.
Calling it a "fight scene" is generous. For the most part, it's just the Punisher getting bounced around the room (and through several walls and doors) by Nash's comically overpowered slab of pure Russian muscle. There's a moment in the fight where the Punisher stabs the Russian in the chest only for the giant to not even flinch, which actually happened for real due...

I’ve talked to the director, I’m constantly in touch with Vin Diesel and they do really well at keeping this franchise afloat and the moment that I get the call, I’m going to show up and try and do my job and hope that...

Vin Diesel is eager to get back behind the wheel for Fast X: Part 2, and to mark the occasion, he’s sharing a new video on social media that gives Fast fans a peek behind the curtain at the latest film in the franchise. Instead of teasing a new cast member, Diesel’s video previews an intriguing “setting” for the high-octane action film to take place. The location looks like something between Mad Max, Blade Runner, and Pitch Black, with dust billowing around a desolate terrain. The muted orange landscape includes a curious-looking structure with neon pink lighting. It’s a bizarre backdrop for a Fast & Furious film. Color me confused. Are the Fast family finally going to space? Like, more so than they did in F9: The Fast Saga.

Long before Vin Diesel shot to international stardom with the Fast & Furious franchise in 2001, the actor got a bizarre but memorable recruitment call from Steven Spielberg. Following his prolific work in the 1995 short drama Multi-Facial, and the 1997 feature film Strays, the actor surprisingly came under the radar of Hollywood’s most acclaimed filmmaker in 1998.

According to Vin Diesel’s interview with Yahoo Movies, the actor recalled how he was notified by his agent about his role in Steven Spielberg’s 1998 war film Saving Private Ryan. Initially expecting the usual process of audition, Diesel was later informed that Spielberg had specially written a role for him that required no audition.

Vin Diesel has certainly been in Hollywood for decades and has starred in a few of the most iconic franchises of all time.

Comcast reported a mixed second quarter as the company missed revenue estimates, beat earnings, and Peacock lost 500,000 paid subscribers compared to the previous quarter.
Company-wide revenue for the period ended June 30 fell 2.7% year-on-year to reach $29.7bn, however adjusted earnings per share increased 7% to $1.21. Adjusted net income climbed marginally to $4.7bn, and adjusted Ebitda fell marginally to $10.2bn.
Stock dropped 2.6% to $38.51 after closing.
Peacock currently commands a base of 33m members. Executives were understandably more eager to tout a 38% year-on-year increase.

The movie business is a vast, complicated beast. Unless you're on the inside at a Hollywood studio, it can be difficult to wrap one's head around. Even then, it can still be perplexing as it's an ever-evolving maze. The key is that it is ultimately a business based on utilizing the art of filmmaking to try and turn a profit. The biggest part of the equation, now and pretty much always, is the box office.
Though certainly not the only measure of a movie's success, oftentimes, the number of tickets sold versus what it cost to make is the element that determines whether we classify a movie as a hit or not. It's relatively basic math, even though the math is often anything but simple. Just look at a movie like "Bohemian Rhapsody," which the studio claimed lost $51 million despite pulling in more than $900 million at the global box office...

Peacock blickt auf ein erfolgreiches Quartal zurück (Credit: Imago / Zoonar)
Peacock, der Streamingdienst von NBCUniversal, verzeichnete Ende Juni 33 Mio. Abonnenten. Im Vergleich zu den 33,5 Mio. Ende März entspricht dies zwar einem kleinen Minus, im Vergleich zu den 24 Mio. Abonnenten Ende Juni 2023 jedoch einem Zuwachs um 37,5 Prozent.
Wie aus der heute veröffentlichten Quartalsbilanz von Mutterkonzern Comcast hervorgeht, stieg der Umsatz des Streamingdiensts im Jahresvergleich um 28 Prozent auf eine Mrd. Dollar an. Der der Fehlbetrag beim Adjusted Ebitda ging von 651 Mio. Dollar um 46,5 Prozent auf 348 Mio. Dollar zurück – nach Konzernangaben die größte Verbesserung des Quartalsergebnisses seit dem Peacockstart im Jahr 2020.
Insgesamt stieg der Quartalsumsatz der Mediensparte, der Peacock zugeordnet wird, um 2,1 Prozent auf 6,324 Mrd. Dollar, das Adjusted Ebitda lag mit 1,356 Mrd.

Comcast said Tuesday it had posted second-quarter revenue below Wall Street analysts’ expectations and also saw Peacock subscriber levels decline after a burst in the prior quarter.
Revenue of $29.7 billion dipped 3% from the same period in 2023, while earnings per share beat estimates, rising 7% to $1.21 on an adjusted basis.
The studio division posted a 27% dip in revenue due to difficult comparisons. The year-ago quarter saw the release of The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Fast X, while current hits like Despicable Me 4 and Twisters were released outside of the second quarter.
Theme parks also marked a decline, with revenue down 11% as attendance gave back previous gains.
Peacock trimmed losses but also saw subscriber levels decline to 33 million from 33.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Revenue climbed 28% to $1 billion, while adjusted Ebitda improved to a loss of $348 million, nearly halving the year-ago loss of $651 million. It was the best year-over-year improvement on...

Comcast Corp. said it grappled with a tricky second quarter in which its traditional TV operations fared relatively well, but its movie-studio and theme-park operations did not, even as it continued to see customers migrate away from some of its cable and broadband offerings.
The Philadelphia owner of NBCUniversal said net income fell 7.5% in the second quarter to approximately $3.93 billion, or $1 per share, compared with $4.25 billion, or $1.02 per share, in the year-earlier period. Ebitda fell about 1% to $10.17 billion.

It’s clear that Fast & Furious is a huge hit, and it’s no surprise it’s already got 10 movies under its belt. As a result, many actors have been cast over time, but others have remained and have even become icons of the whole franchise.
Vin Diesel in Fast & Furious (Universal Pictures)
Vin Diesel is one of them. It’s impossible to think of these movies without picturing him. Because he had made a name for himself within the franchise, he was able to reach a higher level by becoming a producer later on. However, his mother wanted him to aim even higher, practically pushing him to do so.

Charlize Theron starred as the immortal mercenary Andy in Netflix’s The Old Guard in 2020. The critical acclaim and popularity of the film resulted in the streamer greenlighting a sequel, The Old Guard 2. The sequel film completed filming in 2022, but a delay in post-production work halted the film’s progress. Theron is confident in the project and shared that it would soon hit the screens.

The Old Guard 2 is one film that the actress looks forward to in her future filmography. It is also possible that the films could be made into a trilogy, with the second film leaving scope for a third potential film. Interestingly, she has less hope for her Marvel return as she revealed that she hadn’t gotten a call from the studio.

Amazon MGM Studios is developing the YA novel “The Loneliest Girl in the Universe” as a feature film.
Joe Roth and Jeffrey Kirschenbaum will produce the film alongside Katherine Langford, best known for starring in Netflix’s hit YA series “13 Reasons Why”; Seldy Gray will oversee development for Roth Kirschenbaum Films.
Written by Lauren James, “The Loneliest Girl in the Universe” follows Romy Silvers, the only surviving crew-member of a spaceship travelling to a new planet, on a mission to establish a second home for humanity. “Alone in space,” the official synopsis explains, “she is the loneliest girl in the universe until she hears about a new ship which has launched from Earth – with a single passenger on board. A boy called J.” First published in 2017, “The Loneliest Girl in the World” was nominated for a number of prizes including the Carnegie medal and was shortlisted for the Steam Children’s Book Prize,...

Vin Diesel’s Fast & Furious franchise is not known to be high art but the fact that these films are still happening and are profitable means that there are audiences who like it despite the ridiculousness. The films have been silly since Fast Five and by the tenth film, things have gotten so ridiculous that it seems ironic and intentional.
One scene in particular in part one of its two-part finale Fast X is beyond hilarious for its illogical premise. The big ball of fire in the Rome sequence has fans rolling with laughter due to the continuity errors, logic-defying actions, and an unscathed Vin Diesel.

John Cena has recently highlighted what sets him apart in the glamorous world of Hollywood while addressing his “following” on X (Twitter). It is not uncommon for celebrities to have specific preferences regarding social media.

One of the specific trends popular among the Hollywood elites is not following anyone on social media platforms, pursued by numerous names, such as Eminem, Zendaya, Jay Z, Megan Fox, and many others.
Cena, however, has refrained from such a practice, having followed more than 800,000 people on X (Twitter). While addressing the same in a recent interview, the Fast X actor stated that such exposure helps him maintain his curiosity.

Fast and Furious star Tyrese Gibson appeared seriously concerned seeing Pual Walked dressed up as Vin Diesel on set to prank his co-star. Starring alongside in the action-adventure franchise since the 2001 film, the cast of the film series, including Walker and Diesel had formed a close friendship off-screen.

However, the 56-year-old actor is known for being his professional self while being on the set of the movie. And it seems to be the reason Gibson appears to be quite concerned, believing Walker had taken the prank too far by mimicking their co-star.

Over the years, Brie Larson has starred in many types of roles. Outside of her Oscar win in a thriller film, the actress dominates the action genre, having been a part of films like Fast X, Kong: Skull Island, and most famously, Captain Marvel. Starring in this specific genre can come with a lot of perks. Actors get trained in several physical pursuits in order to prepare for their roles.
Specifically, after her role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a flying force to be reckoned with, one can assume that Larson has had a lot of fun experiences during the filming of these movies. From floating around by a crane to being a part of intricate fight scenes, she would certainly enjoy herself and become familiar with activities that others in her profession weren’t able to try out even once in their lives.

During a press junket to promote Inside Out 2, Hauser told CinemaBlend that he had no interest in being compared to Diesel when his voice performance was compared with Diesel’s work in Guardians of the Galaxy.
The 37-year-old said, “Please don’t say that. I like to think I’m on time and approachable,” as he and his co-star Lewis Black laughed. He continued, “Sorry, I love people, but when I hear stories about Hollywood actors who get paid really well and mistreat people, I out them constantly. And it’s a blast.”
Black added, “Yeah, it’s awful.”

Vin Diesel has worked his way up to being one of Hollywood’s A-list movie stars and has starred in some big franchises including The Fast and Furious, XXX, and The Chronicles of Riddick. He has also voiced Groot in the MCU. Outside of acting, Diesel is also a big film nerd and interestingly a big fan of Dungeons & Dragons.

Paul Walter Hauser’s interview with CinemaBlend at the “Inside Out 2” press junket is gaining traction on social media for one viral moment in which the Emmy-winning actor calls out Vin Diesel for stories about Diesel allegedly mistreating cast and crew on set. The two actors have not worked together — and it appears that Hauser is not interested due to what he’s heard about Diesel.
When the CinemaBlend interviewer told Hauser that his arc in “Inside Out 2” means “you’re like Vin Diesel now,” the actor responded: “Please don’t say that.”
“I like to think I am on time and approachable,” Hauser said, alluding to stories he’s heard that Diesel is not. “I love people, but when I hear stories about Hollywood actors who get paid really well and mistreat people… I out them constantly, and it’s a blast.”

New cast additions for the upcoming Valentine's Day slasher Heart Eyes have been announced. Devon Sawa and Jordana Brewster have reportedly joined the film's cast, which is currently in production in New Zealand.
We first learned of this film earlier this month. On June 10, Heart Eyes was announced to be in the works for Spyglass. It was described as an original horror romantic comedy with Josh Ruben directing from a screenplay written by Phillip Murphy (The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard), Christopher Landon, and Michael Kennedy.
Here's what Ruben had to say about getting the opportunity to make the horror rom-com via Deadline:
My love of horror is rivaled only by my love of romantic comedies. I’m excited as hell to mount my most challenging genre bender to date: a brutal slasher in a nostalgic rom-com universe.Josh Ruben

We first learned of this film earlier this month. On June 10, Heart Eyes was announced to be in the works for Spyglass. It was described as an original horror romantic comedy with Josh Ruben directing from a screenplay written by Phillip Murphy (The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard), Christopher Landon, and Michael Kennedy.

While DC has struggled to keep its interconnected live-action universe afloat, leading to the regime change back in late 2022, one thing that they’ve gotten right constantly is Batman. From Christian Bale in the 2000s to Ben Affleck in the 2010s and now Robert Pattinson in recent years, Batman has proven to be DC’s biggest cash cow over and over, and for good reason.
Considering how layered of a protagonist Bruce Wayne is, seeing different auteurs bringing in their own vision to the character is always fun, and fans are reasonably excited to see what the Dcu has stored. However, netizens have shared little interest in the idea of Hayden Christensen being the new caped crusader, who was recently asked about his verdict on playing Batman.

“Everyone is talking about the doom and gloom of our industry, but we have to get over that and be optimists,” said Donna Langley today. “I really do believe that.”
“As much as things change, they stay the same,” the Chairman of NBCU Studio Group and Chief Content Officer also declared of the media industry. “The pocketbook is being impacted by how many streaming subscriptions they have. Bundling is an inevitability.”
She was referring to the consumer financial fatigue and growing moves toward the old cable mode of bundling in the dimming digital environment.
Moving from matters of bundling, the big and small screens, the state of Peacock, AI, protecting IP and the unsteady media landscape, the seasoned exec was speaking Friday with uber-attorney Ken Ziffren onstage in the marquee event of the 48th annual UCLA Entertainment Symposium.

Meadow Walker, daughter of late iconic star Paul Walker, decided to divorce her ex-husband Louis Thornton-Allan after three years of marriage. The couple announced their separation in an Instagram post, citing “amicable separation” and “a united decision.” Recent reports reveal that the former couple have finally reached a divorce agreement.
The court documents reveal that Meadow Walker cited October 17, 2021, as their marriage date and January 3, 2024, as their separation date, per InTouch Weekly. The documents further explain that the Fast X actress sought to avoid paying spousal support, disclosing that the couple had previously entered into a prenuptial agreement before their marriage, which would govern their financial obligations in the event of a divorce.

The Fast and Furious franchise has become one that is running on fumes due to its over-extended storylines and stretching the limit of believability with each installment. The first film was a simple one about racing, and the franchise soon turned into an espionage-esquire franchise, with parts 5-7 being its peak era.

However, with part 8, the audience got tired of the shtick as the franchise went overboard with its plotlines and action sequences. Parts 9 and 10 were the worst of the lot where the films essentially became parodies of themselves. With Fast 11 promised to be the last film, Vin Diesel has shared a concept art from it, but fans do not find the art particularly interesting or innovative.

The world is ready. The drums of Motunui have been rung. Disney is creating the iconic film as we speak and Moana of Motunui is on a hunt. A hunt to find other people except her tribe and Dwayne Johnson’s Maui is right there to help her.

"Fast X” and “Lupin” director Louis Leterrier will make his animation debut with “The Chimera Brigade,” an action/sci-fi series that pulls from European folklore and pop culture and turns a simple comic-book premise: What if Marie Curie’s discoveries help birth the world’s first superheroes?
Leterrier will co-direct with Antoine Charreyron (“Batwheels”), while Ron Dyens of Sacrebleu Productions acts as lead producer. The project is adapted from an award-winning comic series written by Serge Lehman and Fabrice Colin and illustrated by Gallic artist Gess.
Taking place between the two world wars in a steampunk vision of Paris evocative of Jules Verne and “The Rocketeer,” the series sets a Gallic and Teutonic superhuman squads against one another in a race to prevent – or accelerate – the next global conflict. Like a continental counterpart to Alan Moore’s “The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,” the series folds in figures from European literature and mythology,...

The strength of the Ark franchise is evident, with the original game getting multiple expansions, and support for years, as well as a highly anticipated sequel starring Fast X star Vin Diesel, and of course the recently released Ark: The Animated Series.
It isn’t too much to say that a large part of the success comes down to the atmosphere created by the Ost of Gareth Coker, an ever-presence throughout all the projects of the franchise, and now in the midst of curating Ark 2’s soundtrack, to boot.

Bad sequels are far from a rarity, as there have been numerous instances where a sequel fails to recapture the original’s spirit, and Wonder Woman 1984 is no exception. Despite dropping the ball hard with the main conflict between Batman and Superman, Dawn of Justice did succeed in doing Diana Prince’s introduction to the Dceu justice.
Moreover, this was followed by arguably the best film in the Dceu, Wonder Woman, which made waves upon its release, making Gal Gadot one of the biggest names in the business. Unfortunately, the sequel failed to live up to its universally acclaimed predecessor, and its weak antagonist isn’t the lone aspect that contributed to it.

Throughout its run, the Dceu had a major villain problem, whether it be Steppenwolf in the theatrical version of Justice League or Enchantress in Suicide Squad.

Vin Diesel’s iconic Fast & Furious movie series is as much a meme at this point as it’s one of the most lucrative franchises in the world. After introducing Jason Momoa’s new villain Dante Reyes in Fast X, Diesel is looking to finish his story in Fast 11 — which is also supposed to be the grand finale of the entire F&f franchise.
But as we all know, the Hollywood strikes of 2023 seriously altered many production schedules, and Fast 11 was among them… Or was it?
Tyrese Revealed Huge Fast 11 Delays
Tyrese Gibson, one of the lead F&f stars, addressed the issue earlier this month. According to the star actor, Fast 11 got seriously stalled by the strikes, with its pre-production only vaguely nearing completion in May 2024. Specifically, the script was delayed by many months due to the writer’s strike which blocked progress for everything else, consequently.

With the fourth Spider-Man film confirmed to be in development, rumors have emerged claiming that Venom might make his appearance known in the MCU. Although nothing can’t be said for certain as of now, and we will have to wait until something official comes from Marvel or Sony, this hasn’t stopped fans from picking their favorite choice for Eddie Brock.
While fans are imploring for Alan Ritchson to get cast as Dcu’s Batman, now Marvel fans have shared their desire to see him play Brock in the upcoming installment of the Spider-Man series.

Unlike the big screen adaptation of Lee Child’s acclaimed novel, which saw Tom Cruise playing the titular character, the Amazon adaptation found a book-accurate actor for the series. Considering Jack Reacher’s 6.5 ft height is one of his most recognizable features from the books, Alan Ritchson, who stands at 6.3 ft, successfully embodied the intimidating nature of the character.
But despite being huge in size, in the upcoming season, it seems Jack Reacher is finally set to be humbled by Olivier Richters, who perfectly embodies Lee Child’s idea of Paulie in the books.

We’ve seen other big-screen franchises make the leap to TV over the years, but could Fast & Furious be next?
While speaking with Variety, NBCUniversal Studio group chairman and chief content officer Donna Langley teased the future of the Fast & Furious franchise, saying there’s “still gas in the tank” even after the Fast X sequel hits theaters in 2026. Where the franchise goes from there is unclear, but Langley said, “We may pivot another time and bring it back to the streets of L.A. and maybe make it a more intimate story.” After mentioning previous NBCUniversal shows based on movies, such as Pitch Perfect and Ted, Langley said, “Fast and Furious is a good one” for a potential future TV series.
