‘Captain Marvel’ News: Bryce Dallas Howard Wants To Lead Marvel’s First Female Vehicle

‘Fantastic Four’ Director Josh Trank Explains Why He Left ‘Star Wars’

It’s an understatement to say that Josh Trank’s leaving Star Wars was a bit suspicious. He’d been announced as one of the guests at the Star Wars Celebration event that took place last April but had ended up as a no-show. Although his no-show was said to be a result of him being “under the […]

Actor Bob Odenkirk Doesn’t Know ‘Breaking Bad’s’ Saul Goodman As Much As You’d Think

Television’s Better Call Saul is a bit of a unique beast when compared to most spinoffs. While most take place directly after the series they spin off from, Better Call Saul takes place, at least so far, mostly prior to the events in Breaking Bad. No doubt this has most fans assuming that we already […]
