M. Night Shyamalan took to Twitter on Tuesday to announce that he’d begun casting his next untitled genre movie for Universal, and sure enough, multiple sources tell Collider that Alex Wolff is in talks for one of the main roles. Plot details are being kept under wraps, though sources likened Wolff’s role to the film’s third lead, much as he was in Hereditary behind Toni … Continue reading Alex Wolff Set for M. Night Shyamalan’s Next!!

Night Shyamalan, which has been undated for now. The studio on Tuesday announced the release calendar changes amid the ongoing coronavirus crisis. Odenkirk, who stars in and produces Nobody, plays an overlooked … Continue reading Universal Shifts ‘Nobody’ to Feb 2021 and Delays M. Night Shyamalan’s Next!!
Neo and Trinity are already set to return in The Matrix 4 – but one iconic character from the series definitely won’t be back. Hugo Weaving, who played the suited-and-booted Agent Smith in all three Matrix movies, says he isn’t appearing in the 2021 movie, despite being offered a role by director Lana Wachowski. “I’m not, no…” Weaving told Time Out after being asked if … Continue reading ‘The Matrix 4’: Hugo Weaving’s Agent Smith Won’t Return!!

Night Shyamalan movies on February 26, 2021 and February 17, 2023, respectively.

Bad news, friends. M. Night Shyamalan‘s reboot of Tales from the Crypt is off the docket, at least for now. Last year, TNT teamed with the Split director to reinvent the classic horror series as the centerpiece of a weekly two-hour horror programming block that would feature short and long-form storytelling curated by Shyamalan, hosted by a new Cryptkeeper. A few months later, the network … Continue reading M. Night Shyamalan’s ‘Tales from the Crypt’ Reboot Dead at TNT!!!
It was a weekend of highs and lows, with the lows coming from the more-disappointing-than-expected opening weekend for Warner Bros’ Pan. The Peter Pan origin story directed by Joe Wright was struggling to gain a foothold well before its opening weekend and opened even worse than even the most dire predictions expected. At the high end of the box office, however, The Martian enjoyed a … Continue reading The Martian has another weekend win while Pan bombs at the BO!!
The talk of The Martian breaking Gravity‘s October, opening weekend record began early and really spiked after the Ridley Scott film posted a better opening day than the 2013 Alfonso Cuaron sci-fi flick. However, estimates show The Martian coming up a shade shy of the $55.7 million October record. Provisioned with an “A” CinemaScore, though, this one should survive well week-to-week. 20th Century Fox is … Continue reading The Walk opens low on IMAX & The Martian opens big with $55 million at the BO!!
Hotel Transylvania 2 was not the only new release this weekend, but it was the only one that set box office records. The animated sequel has claimed the all-time highest debut for September with an estimated $47.5 million. Appropriately enough, the former record holder was Hotel Transylvania, which opened on this same frame in 2012. The first film went on to earn $148.3 million in … Continue reading Hotel Transylvania 2 hits records, while The Intern is alright & The Green Inferno fails at the BO!!
Synopsis – A single mother finds that things in her family’s life go very wrong after her two young children visit their grandparents. My Take – In recent years, director M. Night Shyamalan has become kind of a joke, unfortunate but true. After a brilliant start to his career with films like The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and to some extend Signs & The Village, his … Continue reading The Visit (2015) Review!!
The weekend box office is up from last year with the arrival of two new wide releases, the latest young adult adaptation, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials, and the Johnny Depp-led Whitey Bulger story, Black Mass. However, the weekend’s biggest news doesn’t come with the wide releases. The true talking points come when we look at the limited, IMAX and premium large format release of … Continue reading Scorch Trials & Black Mass open at the top, while Everest & Sicario do well in a limited release at the BO!!
As expected, The Perfect Guy was the top draw at this weekend’s box office. The Sony/Screen Gems thriller earned an estimated $26.7 million from 2,211 locations, or $12,000 per screen. That’s a strong debut for a film that cost just $12 million – and especially strong considering that early projections had the film opening closer to $20 million. Then again, in recent years Screen Gems … Continue reading The Perfect Guy & M Night Shyamalan’s The Visit are success stories at the BO!!
