The Best Actor category is often considered one of the most important, usually presented as either third or second to last behind only Best Picture....

Staying on-brand, the unnecessarily long title for the new season ofAmerican Crime Storyis – in full –The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story. I will probably never be referring to it again as all of that. However, I am excited not only to see the pomp and circumstance of the production revealed in new images today, but at the thought ofRyan Murphyhandling something so perfectly in his wheelhouse as this particular story....

Neil Gaiman’sAmerican Godsoffers up a lot to wrap your head around, but the basics are these: Gods exist. They’re sustained by worship and belief. And there’s a battle between the old, traditional gods of myth and legend, and the new, modern gods of media, technology, and commerce. Caught in the middle of this battle is Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle), a mortal man placed in a very precarious yet influential position amidst the battling gods....

One of the immense joys of slow-burn TV is the payoff that comes from a long build-up, and in the case ofBetter Call Saul, the smaller the moment the more explosive it can be. “Fall” was a complicated episode (and the penultimate one of the current season) that put its characters all on separate paths — ones that will undoubtedly set the course for their futures. For those of us who have watchedBreaking Bad, we know what those futures will be....

Bryan Bertino’s feature film debutThe Strangerscame at the end of an era for horror films. Specifically, the era where studios were eagerly throwing sizable budgets toward original genre productions. The home invasion hit was shot for $11 million, on film, and went on to gross more than $80 million domestically before the age of digital filmmaking and microbudgets redefined how hit horror movies got made. A near decade later, Bertino made his second film,The Monster, which he describes as a much more complicated production, for only $3 million....

Universal Pictures has quietly pulled the plug on its Oscar campaign forCats. The big-screen musical was a sight-unseen contender given its profile and pedigree, and indeed you’d be forgiven for previously assuming it could be an awards contender. Universal mounted the big budget adaptation with a star-studded cast, a new original song co-written byTaylor Swift, and Oscar-winningThe King’s SpeechandLes MiserableshelmerTom Hooperin the director’s chair. But once the first trailer dropped, the film’s potential to be a massive blunder came into view....

Previously slated for a June 19, 2025 release, the Lionsgate comedyFlarsky, fronted bySeth RogenandCharlize Theron, will now move into a Summer 2019 slot. The move reportedly comes from strong test screenings, though that’s certainly an interesting way to phrase a release-date delay of four months. From 2014 to 2017, the top box office spot for the early weekend frame in February has been an animated kids movie (except for this year’sFifty Shades Freed, you horndogs)....
