Predator: Badlands director Dan Trachtenberg has revealed that while his upcoming sci-fi movie shares DNA with the Alien universe, he intentionally avoided a heavy-handed crossover approach opting instead for a subtler, more sophisticated connection between the two franchises. Speaking exclusively to GamesRadar+, Trachtenberg explained that his goal was to build a sense of shared continuity without turning the film into another “versus” spectacle. “It was really just thinking of the VS movies; the Alien vs. Predators that came out very quickly around the same time, Freddy vs. Jason and whatever…” he said. “It just felt, to me, like there was…
Ryan Murphy’s latest legal drama All’s Fair, starring Kim Kardashian, has been met with overwhelmingly negative reviews, with several major outlets labeling it one of the worst television shows ever produced.

Reese Witherspoon is reflecting on her early years of motherhood and the emotional challenges that came with it. The actress and producer revealed that she suffered from “really bad” postpartum depression after becoming a mother at a young age.

As IT: Welcome to Derry launches on HBO, co-creator Barbara Muschietti has opened up about how the Hollywood strikes disrupted production for nearly eight months, forcing the team to navigate major creative and logistical challenges. Muschietti revealed that “90% of three episodes” had already been filmed before the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes in 2023 brought work to a halt. The delay complicated continuity and tone across the series. “We suddenly had to work in different seasons,” she explained to SFX Magazine. “This is a summer show, but suddenly it wasn’t a summer show any more. We had to create a…

The end of Stranger Things has been in sight for a long time.

Speaking at Italy’s Lucca Comics and Games Festival alongside cast members Gaten Matarazzo, Noah Schnapp, Caleb McLaughlin, and Finn Wolfhard, the Duffer brothers reflected on how carefully they planned the conclusion to the hit Netflix series. “Obviously, it’s stressful trying to figure out how you want to end the show,” said Ross Duffer. “Luckily, it was about…
