The production of Solo: A Star Wars Story is certainly one of the most fraught in recent memory, at least publicly. Drama surrounds plenty of Hollywood productions, but this one not only occurred on a massively anticipated Star Wars movie, it included the firing of the film’s directors weeks away from when filming was supposed to wrap.

“Game of Thrones” Season 7 premiered too late to be eligible for this year’s Emmys (“The Handmaid’s Tale” won Best Drama Series after “Thrones‘” two-year winning streak), but the fantasy epic now has its sights set on returning to awards season and winning big at the Golden Globes.

As dispatches from the Han Solo set continue to come in, it’s becoming clear that we may never in fact see much of any of the footage that Chris Miller and Phil Lord shot during their abbreviated tenure as the project’s main helmers.

For whatever you might say about his directing career, and I could say plenty, Ron Howard is an absolute delight on social media.

If you’re feeling a bit strung out over the end of Game of Thrones this year, that’s understandable.

Fortunately, HBO has put together a pretty cool behind-the-scenes look at the seventh season that can … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’: HBO Announces 7-Part Behind-the-Scenes Series; Check Out the First Episode Now!!
It’s been a wild ride in this, the seventh season of HBO’s Game of Thrones. In only a half-dozen episodes, fans have received more concentrated mythology, feels, and family reunions than in the entirety of the series’ run so far. There have been deaths, of course, and disappointments, but the George R.R. Martin-inspired show has long made viewers suffer along with its characters, so it’s high time … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7 Finale Images Tease the Most Important Meeting Ever!!

Emmy-nominated Michael K. Williams is one of those rare actors who steals the scene every single time he’s in front of the camera.

Williams’ Role!!
After last night’s divisive episode, HBO has released the Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 7 trailer for this season’s finale.

Regardless, Episode 7 is what this season has been … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7 Finale Trailer Teases the Most Intense Conversation in the Show’s History!! Check It Out!!

HBO has unveiled preview images for Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 5, titled “Eastwatch,” and we’re in for all the classic Game of Thrones emotions—frustration, anger, moodiness, and of course “Jon Snow Brooding.” There are only three episodes left in the entire season, and “The Spoils of War” certainly left us with plenty to chew on and one hell of a cliffhanger. You won’t … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’ Season 7 Episode 5 Images Tease Plenty of Scheming, Brooding, and Pouting!!! Check It Out!!
Have you recovered from Game of Thrones “The Spoils of War”? I sure hope so, because the preview for the next episode is here and it’s not giving fans any time to breathe.

Game of Thrones is positively screaming through plot points only two episodes into Season 7. One of the side effects to killing off a majority of a show’s supporting cast is that, the closer you get to the finale, you have fewer side stories and characters to dedicate screen time to. In other words, we’re finally getting to spend a lot more time with Jon … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’ Images Herald a Long-Awaited Arrival at Dragonstone!! Check Them Out!!
A new Game of Thrones trailer released at San Diego Comic Con has brought the hype for the rest of this shortened season, expanding on scenes first teased in the “Stormborn” preview.

Check It Out!!!
Game of Thrones’ sprawling Season 7 premiere gave us a few things to think on, but since it was mostly set up it’s natural for us to be champing at the bit to move on to Episode 2, “Stormborn.” Though Vinnie Mancuso has already been addressing some of the theories for that next hour, new images released by HBO today may shed further light onto what … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’: New Season 7 Images Tease “Stormborn” Alliances!!

While the director shuffle on Lucasfilm’s untitled Han Solo movie still stings, new director Ron Howard is doing his best to keep fans engaged by sharing some social media snaps (no doubt approved by Lucasfilm to keep things cheery).

Ron Howard, perhaps knowing that the strict rules of Lucasfilm secrecy don’t really apply to him since he’s been brought on to save the untitled Han Solo movie, has been busy tweeting out photos from the set.

Dragons, ice zombies, Starks, and the Khaleesi — that’s just about all you really need to remember when it comes to Game of Thrones, per a new series recap video from HBO.

On the first day of summer, Winter Is Here — at least, in the form of a new Game of Thrones Season 7 trailer.
