Beautiful, eccentric, fiercely private and completely unpredictable, Greek actress Despina Mirou brings something to Hollywood that can’t easily be manufactured: mystery. Hollywood has always loved the femme fatale. The unforgettable woman who enters a room and changes its temperature. She’s beautiful, certainly, but beauty isn’t what makes people watch her. It’s the sense that there’s
Streaming may have made almost any movie available at the press of a button, but physical media is having a surprisingly good year. For movie fans who still want to actually own their favorites, 2026 has brought a steady stream of restorations, anniversary editions, and long-overdue upgrades. Even Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks! finally made its
Franz Kafka was one of the most important writers of the 20th Century. (He’s also one of the best – if you haven’t read any of his work, seek out his short stories.) Like many great artists, however, he never experienced this fame – in fact, he intended that all his work be burned after
Even if the plot of Coyote vs Acme didn’t feel like an uncanny reflection of its own making, it would be hard not to mention the making of the film itself, anear-victim of Warner Bros’ habit of creating and then casting off feature films for tax write-offs. But Dave Green’s courtroom-drama parody does position one
Early into Jane Schoenbrun’s Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, Sundance-anointed filmmaker Kris (Hannah Einbinder) explains to erstwhile scream queen Billy Presley (Gillian Anderson) that she’s been parachuted in to resurrect the “zombie IP” that is the teen slasher Camp Miasma franchise because she’s queer.

The James Bond casting rumors are heating up once again, and it appears that the franchise is closing in on who will play the next Agent 007. For many years, it was considered a role for a veteran actor like Henry Cavill, but that isn’t what Amazon MGM is going for. Instead, the studio wants

Recently, Iwent to see Christopher Nolan’sThe Odyssey in beautiful 70mm at the Filmhouse here in Edinburgh. Iwas completely blown away by its scale, ambition and visual beauty, but Iwas also troubled by its relationship to Homer’s original text, the changes to the story, to Odysseus’ character, and to key elements of theplot. Then Isaw it

The Walking Dead‘s newest hero has the same big Rick energy as the show’s original protagonist. Ever since Rick left the original show in season 9, the zombie franchise has floundered trying to introduce a survivor who matches his energy.

Body horror, at its best, reacquaints us with the flesh, asking us to accept the strange and often disturbing experiences of what that entails. Veronica’s nightmare of giving birth to awrithing maggot-baby – arguably the film’s most unforgettable image – locates that same fear of threatened bodily autonomy in unmistakably gendered terms. Brundle fears the
Puerile teen humour and maudlin sentiment clash awkwardly in this underpowered second feature from British writer/director George Jaques, which captures one crazy summer at acamp for agroup of young people in the midst of cancer care.

There is an Oak Street, like an Elm Street, in every suburban American neighbourhood. It is ageneric, commonplace street name, suggestive of strength, solidarity and goodness, as wholesome and nostalgia-tinged as American pie. Those values are instantiated in the opening sequence of David Robert Mitchell’s The End of Oak Street, which shows everyone happily participating
Apple TV’s smash-hit comedy series, Ted Lasso, is back with its much-anticipated fourth season, and just as exciting as the returning actors are the new faces who make up AFC Richmond’s Lady Greyhounds.

It’s Reacher; you know what to expect at this point. Launching in 2022 as an adaptation of Lee Child’s mammoth novel series, expectations for Reacher were dampened by two unspectacular movie releases in the 2010s, but at least Tom Cruise’s replacement looked more like the figure fans had carried in their minds for years. It
It’s been ten years since Sian Clifford first graced our screens as Claire in Fleabag, and Lady reminds us exactly why we fell for her in the first place.

Living in acruel dystopia where the most commercially successful film biopic of all time is awan apologia for Michael Jackson’s sex crimes, it’s nice to see something that is abit more critical about its subject.

Villain deaths in animation are often some of the most unforgettable or defining moments in a series, especially when done in a way that completely subverts expectations. Sometimes villains meet ends that are shockingly harsh and brutal, completely blindsiding audiences who perhaps thought the animated series or film wouldn’t push things that far. These deaths
Prime Video has an eight-episode superhero anthology series where every episode is as good as the last one. Amazon Prime has really gone all in on the superheroes, at least as all in as you can go without access to the Marvel and DC Comics stables. The Tick, The Boys, Gen Z, and Invincible are
Sony’s PlayStation 2 is the best-selling console of all time, and there’s a good reason for that. The PS2 had some of the best video games of the 2000s, especially when it came to exclusives like Jak & Daxter, Grand Turismo 3, and Final Fantasy 10.

Mahershala Ali’s recent exit from the MCU appears to have confirmed Wesley Snipe’s iconic line from Deadpool & Wolverine’s, but truthfully, it’s already been debunked.

“Unfortunately, I’m addicted to dreaming,” James Bidgood said in a2010 interview with Butt Magazine when describing his relationship with fantasy.

The popularity of the Western genre has surged in recent years, with the best neo-Western TV shows reminding viewers of the sense of fun and danger that classic Western series carried, while updating the outdated tropes and caricatures that belong in history’s trash can.
