Rescued singularly by Tom Hardy and his utter commitment to his titular character of an alien symbiote with an attitude issue, Venom blew at the box office. But the sequel, directed by Andy Serkis, turned out to be the least passable spin on the buddy comedy. Right from the second installment, the Venom franchise gradually started degrading.

Being a part of the extended Spider-Man Universe, Tom Hardy’s Venom movies were supposed to have a larger fanbase, but unfortunately, they failed to make an impact. Now, after one hit and a mediocre sequel that barely stood a chance at the box office, Sony is back with a threequel. Starring Ted Lasso actress Juno Temple, the movie is said to be directed by Kelly Marcel. However, despite the stellar cast, fans are not convinced to watch the movie.

Author Django Wexler’s novel How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying – which has been described as “Groundhog Day meets Guardians of the Galaxy” – won’t be reaching store shelves until May 21st (you can pre-order a copy at This Link), but Deadline reports that Legendary has already come out the winner in a bidding war over the adaptation rights. A TV series adaptation is now in development, with Legendary’s Godzilla vs. Kong director Adam Wingard heading up the project and producing with his manager Jeremy Platt.
How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying is said to be a “laugh-out-loud fantasy tale about a young woman who, tired of defending humanity from the Dark Lord, decides to become the Dark Lord herself.” Here’s the book’s description: Davi has done this all before. She’s tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord.

Atlanta’s film scene was buzzing in 2016, and at its core was Kareem “Gorilla” Davis. This is his rollercoaster ride through Hollywood.
“In 2016, you couldn’t tell me I wasn’t the biggest up-and-coming film director in Atlanta,” Davis says. “Hot off of my first feature film in Florida, I was embarking on my most exciting project yet. I published a fiction novel, turned it into a screenplay, and began the casting process with my then-wife. Sponsorships, auditioning royalty, and callbacks were coming like a tidal wave.”

A former spy, literary genius, and most importantly, a masterful storyteller, David Cornwell narrated much of his life in polished literary language in his biographical documentary The Pigeon Tunnel directed by Errol Morris. The Apple documentary film is a perfect character study of David Cornwell, a spy who hid his entire past life behind a pen name: John Le Carre. Although Errol Morris’s interview style is somewhat interrogative, in The Pigeon Tunnel, we find Morris in a very friendly mood. Almost entirely behind the camera, Morris becomes an important pillar throughout the film at times. Not only do we get to know more about Cornwell’s life, his ideology, and his writings, but there is a friendly and serene chemistry between him and Morris.
The Pigeon Tunnel is cinematically enriched in every way. Centered on famous espionage novelist David Cornwell, aka John Le Carre, the film has a dark,...

Though raised in Brooklyn, actor turned producer/director Danny A. Abeckaser was born in Israel. Unfortunately, that birthright isn’t enough to lend authenticity to “The Engineer,” which feels very much like an American B-movie stab at turning Israeli anti-terrorist operations of 30 years ago into formulaic action fodder — without much action, even. A miscast Emile Hirsch plays a Shin Bet agent tasked with hunting down the mastermind behind a series of suicide bombings. Arriving at yet another low ebb in Israeli international relations over Palestinian issues, this frequently unconvincing and clunky would-be thriller will have a hard time stirring much enthusiasm in most territories. Lionsgate is releasing to limited U.S. theaters and home formats on August 18.
It begins, with a burst of explanatory onscreen text, in the fall of 1993, as Israeli Prime Minister Rabin and Plo leader Yasser Arafat were in Washington D.C. attempting to broker peace under the auspices of President Clinton.

Chicago – The groundbreaking Netflix TV series “Never Have I Ever” heads to Season Three, with the continuing adventures of Davi and her teen pals. Part of the supporting cast is Cousin Kamala (Richa Moorjani) and Mom Nalini (Poorna Jagannathan).
“Never Have I Ever” focuses on the Vishwakumar family from India and their cultural evolution in California, primarily spotlighting teenage Davi (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan). She is thrown into a tailspin when her father Mohan (Sendhil Ramamurthy in flashback) dies suddenly at Davi’s music recital. This leaves the family with a female base … her mother Nalini, a physician, and her cousin Kamala, who has moved to the states to complete her PhD at Caltech. Meanwhile Davi is navigating high school with her best buds Fabiola (Lea Rodriguez) and Eleanor (Ramona Young). Oh yes, and narrating the story in his inimitable style is tennis great John McEnroe, who was Mohan’s idol.
