Welcome to London’s seedy underworld of crime and unexpected calamity. “Gangster’s Kiss” gives us a backstage pass to this vibrant criminal scene through the lens of unlikely protagonist Jack, an aspiring actor who finds himself in over his head after deciding to research a gangster role.

Directed by Ray Burdis with a script co-written by Burdis and star Michael Head, this British comedy brings together a stellar cast of renowned talents like Martin Kemp and Patsy Kensit alongside rising stars Charlie Clapham and Vas Blackwood.

The film centers around Jack and his childhood best mate Danny, now grown into a career criminal working for his uncle Don, a notorious crime boss. Eager to ace his newest acting job but short on authentic grit, Jack seeks to follow Danny and observe life on the streets. Little does anyone suspect how badly things may spin out with an off-the-cuff celebrity in their midst.

EastEnders spoilers and updates tease there may be devastating news ahead for Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) fans. Fans are buzzing on social media recently, being convinced the 34 year soap legend is meeting his end!

EastEnders Spoilers – End Of An Era?

Fans of the long-running BBC One soap, EastEnders, have been captivated by the enduring presence of Phil Mitchell, an Albert Square staple for decades. Since his debut in 1990, Phil has become a true legend of the show, enthralling viewers with his compelling storylines.

However, there is a growing concern among fans that Phil’s time on the soap may be coming to an end, and the possibility of his demise is causing quite a stir.

Phil has been involved in some of the show’s most iconic storylines, as the son of Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor), and brother of Sam and Grant Mitchell.

The character is well-known for having multiple...

Robin Windsor, a popular former professional on the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing has died. He was 44.

Production company Sisco Entertainment, which produces the play he has been starring in, Come What May, a Moulin Rouge tribute show, didn’t list a cause of death and said “it is with heavy hearts that we announce the tragic passing of our beloved friend, Robin Windsor.”

“His extraordinary ability to express emotion through movement captivated audiences, leaving them spellbound with every step,” Sisco wrote on X. “Beyond his impeccable dancing, Robin’s vibrant spirit lit up the room, infusing rehearsals and performances with infectious energy and warmth. His laughter was contagious, his kindness boundless. His friendship was a gift cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Robin, you will be deeply missed.”

The statement added that Come What May will continue but Windsor’s “legacy will live on.”

To mark the release of Renegades on 13th February, we’ve been given 2 copies to give away on DVD.

Lee Majors plays Carver, a courageous former green beret and true gentleman, who stands by soldiers old and new and helps them in their hour of need. When struggling veteran Nick Moran (Lock Stock) comes to him for support, he does his best to help. Introducing him to his loyal old special forces comrades Peck (Ian Ogilvy), Woody (Billy Murray) and Harris (Paul Barber), they welcome the new­-recruit with open arms, living by their ethos of ‘You don’t leave a man behind even when the war is over and done with…’.

When Carver is shockingly murdered, the ex-army Renegades band together to protect his daughter Judy (Patsy Kensit) and exact revenge on those responsible… a vicious international drug gang, led by the fearsome Goram (Louis Mandylor). They’re ready...

As the world rings in 2023 with new resolutions and goals, TV soaps will also be switching things up with exciting new storylines and scandals.

After a busy Christmas period, which saw the exit of Danny Dyer and the shock revelation of a 12-year-old being pregnant on EastEnders, as well as the return of more long-lost relatives to Coronation Street and Emmerdale, you can expect 2023 to be an explosive year on screen.

Here’s our (spoiler-packed) guide to this year’s soaps...

EastEnders

It’s going to be another exciting year in Walford, with Linda Carter (Kellie Bright) struggling to rebuild her life alone after husband Mick (Dyer) went missing.

Pregnant Whitney Dean (Shona McGarty) will see her relationship with Zack Hudson (James Farrar), the father of her child who she had a fling with, put to the test by a number of factors, including new and old faces.

Renegades is one of those movies that on paper has all the makings of a solid direct to DVD hit. A sizeable cast of mid-tier names that you will not only know but also have a sort of nostalgic endearment toward and that’s a great thing for you guys because they do a huge service in elevating the material and hiding any problems. A story that while not exactly breaking any new ground is just this side of madcap shenanigans so that there’s a slight air of believability to its proceedings. We are talking London gangsters, low budgets and a cast and crew that doesn’t just believe in the project but are doing...

Stars: Lee Majors, Louis Mandylor, Patsy Kensit, Nick Moran, Ian Ogilvy, Billy Murray, Paul Barber, Danny Trejo, Michael Paré, Stephanie Beacham, Michael Brandon, Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister | Written by Tom Jolliffe | Directed by Daniel Zirilli

Renegades, not to be confused with the 2017 action film of the same name, starts on a familiar enough note as retired Green Beret Major Carver getting on the wrong side of mob boss Goram. It seems Carver’s daughter Judy is a local politician and has been leading a clean up the streets campaign and making complaints about Goram’s activities. When Goram had his goons threaten her Carver got involved. And ends up beaten to death for his troubles.

When her father’s military buddies Burton, Peck, Woody, and Harris hear about it they know what needs to be done. These old soldiers are about to fight a new war on the streets of London.

Screen Rant is pleased to present the first look at upcoming action film Renegades, distributed by Saban Films. The film is directed by action movie veteran filmmaker Daniel Zirilli and written by Tom Jolliffe, with a story by Jonathan Sothcott, who also produced. A troupe of action staples headlines the cast, with names like Lee Majors (The Six Million Dollar Man) and Danny Trejo (Machete) being joined by Nick Moran, Ian Ogilvy, Patsy Kensit, Billy Murray, Paul Barber, Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott, Michael Paré, Stephanie Beacham, Michael Brandon, Louis Mandylor, and Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister in one of his last roles. Renegades hits theaters on December 2nd, with an On Demand release on December 6th.

A story of revenge, Renegades begins with the cold-blooded murder of veteran Green Beret Major Carver (Majors). Goram (Mandylor) and the international drug gang he controls are behind the crime, and they are threatening Carver's daughter, Judy...

To outsiders, Only Connect can be a punchline. They see it as the impossible quiz show – tough, smug and incomprehensible to anybody whose photo wasn’t in the local paper for passing A-level maths aged nine. Its host makes weird jokes, its questions may as well be in another language, and its contestants are nerds who probably cut their own hair. A line in an episode of Sky comedy Breeders typifies the stance when a parent tells their child that no, they can’t be home-schooled because then they’d end up on Only Connect.

Those people couldn’t be more wrong. Not about the host’s weird jokes, the esoteric questions – which often are in another language, especially if it boasts its own computer keyboard configuration or shares homophones with English words depictable in cartoon form. Nor are they wrong about the gloriously nerdy contestants, that’s all clearly true.

Happy 25th birthday to Be Here Now, Oasis’ third album and one of the most notorious bombs in rock history. The boozing, brawling Manchester lads were on top of the world in 1997, coming off two perfect albums, Definitely Maybe and (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? But on August 21, the Gallagher brothers dropped the big one. Be Here Now is a lot more than just another flop album. It’s the kind of flop that legends are built on. It’s a rhinestone-studded dinosaur that cannonballed into a kiddie pool.

Revenge thriller stars Nick Moran, Lee Majors and Danny Trejo.

Bleiberg/Dimbort has struck deals in multiple territories including the US on Daniel Zirilli’s Renegades, starring Nick Moran, Lee Majors and Danny Trejo.

The revenge thriller has sold to Saban (North America), Spirit Media (German-speaking territories), Eagle Films (Middle East), Daro (English-speaking Africa), New Select (Japan), Lumix (South Korea), MediaSquad (Eastern Europe) and Nos Lusomundo (Portugal).

The film follows a band of former Special Forces comrades who seek to avenge the death of their Green Beret friend after he is murdered by a London drug gang that has been threatening his daughter.

The U.K. mod revival of the late 1970s and 1980s was a retro-minded movement, albeit meshed a little with then-current trends: a bit of contemporary punk, a bit of midcentury Teddy Boy grease, all swirled together with a swagger that peaked in 1979’s time-capsule rock opera “Quadrophenia.” , “The Pebble and the Boy” forgets the present-day touch that made the earlier revival hip, presenting us with a pair of Zoomers on scooters who feel wholly middle-aged in conception and sensibility. The result is an exercise in retro-upon-retro nostalgia that feels as ill-defined as a Xerox of a Xerox, though die-hard dad mods will thrill to its styling and soundtrack.

“Once a mod, always a mod” is the mantra repeated by multiple characters in the course of writer-director Chris Green’s leanly plotted film, which, even across a scant 80-minute running time, manages to repeat itself in more ways than that alone.

International sales agency Bleiberg Entertainment is representing Shogun Films’ action revenge movie “Renegades” and will introduce it to buyers at the online American Film Market (Nov. 1-5).

Directed by action movie veteran Daniel Zirilli, the film recently wrapped in London and stars Nick Moran (“Avengement”), Lee Majors (“The Fall Guy”), Danny Trejo (“Machete”), Louis Mandylor (“Debt Collectors”) and Ian Ogilvy (“We Still Kill The Old Way”).

“Renegades” follows a group of Special Forces veterans who come together to avenge a fallen comrade – a former green beret, who is murdered in London by a ruthless drugs gang.

The cast also includes Patsy Kensit (“Lethal Weapon 2”), Billy Murray (“Rise of the Footsoldier”), Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott (“Nemesis”), Michael Paré (“Hollow Point”) Paul Barber (“The Full Monty”), Stephanie Beacham (“Dynasty”) and — in one of his last roles — Tommy ‘Tiny’ Lister (“The Fifth Element”).

The film marks the first in a Zirilli-directed slate of action-based Shogun genre films.

Not even a storming soundtrack of mod classics can save a humdrum scooter-to-Brighton caper, which keeps its eye fatally on the rear-view mirror

Quadrophenia love dies hard. After July’s ill-fated cast reunion To Be Someone, now follows this humdrum standalone from the sentimental end of British cinema’s poverty row, seeking to capitalise on residual fondness for all things mod. The star is a scooter: a nifty runaround with two dozen rear-view mirrors , it’s a worthy steed for Patrick McNamee’s callow latter-day knight John Parker (geddit?) as he retraces his late dad’s tyre tracks from Burnhamland to Brighton. This journey – and the rite-of-passage it represents – encompasses legends of old Jam gigs, 1980s songs picking up where the first mods left off, and cameos from associate producer Patsy Kensit and Eldorado’s Jesse Birdsall.

Those mirrors prove symbolic of an entirely backward-looking enterprise. A prolific writer-director whose Me,...

"Once a Mod, always a Mod." Munro Films has released an official UK trailer for an indie drama titled The Pebble and The Boy, written & directed by filmmaker Chris Green. Inspired by Mod culture, The Pebble and The Boy is described as "a British road movie with a big heart. Director and writer Chris Green lives and breathes everything Mod – and that really shows. From the music, the fashion and the scooters, he gives the audience a glimpse into his world." A boy, his Dad's ashes and a Lambretta scooter... John embarks on a journey from Manchester to Brighton, the spiritual home of the Mods, to scatter his father's ashes. Starring Patrick McNamee as John, with Sacha Parkinson, Max Boast, Patsy Kensit, Ricci Harnett, and Jesse Birdsall. "It's fun, energetic and feel-good, all wrapped up in a great soundtrack." Get a look below. Here's the official UK trailer (+ quad poster...

As the British filmmaker most often compared to French auteurs, Joanna Hogg has strangely never had any of her previous films shown in France. But it’s also fitting that her latest, “The Souvenir Part II,” premiered on Thursday in Cannes in the Directors’ Fortnight section.

The festival is also screening Part I, which came out in 2019, enabling audiences to catch up with the action before its sequel – although sequel isn’t quite the right term for this most delicate and exquisite of follow-ups. Aftermath might be more apposite.

The first film dealt with our lead character Julie (played by Honor Swinton Byrne) and her first days at film school in 1980s London, a period marked by a relationship with the charming but raffish Anthony (Tom Burke), who turned out to be a total lying heroin addict.

In the new film, time has gone by and Julie is completing her graduation film.

Midway through Lethal Weapon 2, there’s a scene where Detective Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) brings Rika van den Haas (Patsy Kensit) to his beachside trailer for a date, even though she’s the secretary of an evil apartheid-era South African government official that’s determined to kill him along with much of the Lapd. Before long, he’ll be fishing her lifeless body out of the ocean and vowing to avenge her death, but prior to that unpleasantness they enjoy a few beers and listen to the new Beach...

In a case of life imitating art, the New Jersey location of Tony Soprano’s infamous Bada Bing! strip club has been shut down amid pending criminal investigation, the AP reports. The Lodi, New Jersey strip club Satin Dolls has been accused of solicitation of prostitution, lewd activity, and failure to account for “large amounts of cash moving in and out of the businesses.” “Illegal activity was glorified at the ‘Bada Bing’ in the fictional world of Tony Soprano, but it has no place in modern-day New Jersey,” said New Jersey Attorney General Christopher S. Porrino in a release. “It’s time to shut it down.”

The owners of Satin Dolls have been under investigation for six years, according to the Ag’s report. One of the owners, Anthony Cardinalle, admitted to federal income tax evasion in 1995, and pled guilty in 2013 to a racketeering conspiracy linked to the Genovese crime family.

Bringing King Kong back to the big-screen should never be treated as a trivial matter, and thankfully the fine folks at Industrial Light & Magic brought their A-game when it came to realizing the Eighth Wonder of the World for Kong: Skull Island.

Broadway musicals making the jump to the big screen is nothing new, with the likes of Les Miserables, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, and Chicago all gracing the silver screen over the years. What you may not be aware of is the number of movies that have been turned into musicals. Rocky, School of Rock, Kinky Boots, Aladdin, and, of course, The Lion King (amongst many, many others) have all graced the stages of Broadway. Now, something big is heading to The Great White Way, with the announcement of the King Kong musical. This adaption, which first ran in Australia in 2013, retells the tale of the 1933 classic, with a massive puppet of the Eight Wonder of the World needing 35 puppeteers to operate it. While musicals may not be your cup of tea, you can’t deny that the prospect of seeing one of Cinema’s most iconic creatures brought to...

The latest movie to bring the super-sized simian Kong to the big screen, Kong: Skull Island, comes out today. Kong is a very well-known movie monster, but there are some things you probably don’t know about the Eighth Wonder of the World. Here are seven bits of trivia about King Kong.

1. Despite popular belief, the name “Skull Island” was never used in the original King Kong. For decades, people have used that name to describe Kong’s island home. The new movie uses “Skull Island” in its title. But the fact is, that name was never used in the classic first version. When the characters in that version reach the island, they know they’ve come to the right place because they see “Skull Mountain”, so-named because it’s shaped like a skull. However, the island itself is never named—only Skull Mountain is.

2. The very first Japanese Kaiju movie was a little-known,...

Kong, the giant ape, is no stranger to the big screen, having made iconic appearances as a stop-motion "Eighth Wonder of the World" in Willis O’Brien’s 1933 version of the monster to a full-scale CG incarnation in Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake (which earned a visual effects Oscar). But that also presented a giant-size challenge for the VFX team as it approached re-animating the creature for the Jordan Vogt-Roberts-directed Kong: Skull Island, from Legendary and Warner Bros., opening today.

“That was the thing that kept us up the most going into this project. How do we arrive at a design that’s unique and new and serves the...

Ever since he tried to make Fray Wray his bride in 1933, King Kong has rightfully become a cinematic icon, and throughout the years there has been many an attempt to reboot the Eighth Wonder of the World on the big screen, the most recent being Peter Jackson’s incredibly faithful remake in 2005. Now, Warner Bros. are trying their hand at rebooting the world’s most famous giant ape with Kong: Skull Island, which also pulls double duty by further deepening the Monsterverse, the shared universe that began with Gareth Edward’s Godzilla reboot and will eventually lead to 2020’s Godzilla vs. Kong. Whereas Jackson’s version of the classic story stayed incredibly faithful to the original, Kong: Skull Island takes the concept and spins a new, more action oriented narrative putting Monarch, the monster hunting organisation introduced in 2014’s Godzilla, front and centre. It’s 1973, at the tail end of the Vietnam war,...

Kong: Skull Island crashes onto our screen on March 10th, and one final trailer has come our way to give us our best taste yet of what is in store for us. And what is that exactly? Well, judging by this its a nice line in odd humour (mainly from that old hand himself John C. Rielly), intense action, and Kong going medieval on whatever is put in front of him. Seeing the titular Eighth Wonder of the World in action (especially when we get up close and personal with Mr. Kong early on, playing with our heroes helicopters) makes me absolutely giddy, and I seriously can’t wait for this to finally come our way. Released: March 10th Synopsis: This compelling, original adventure from director Jordan Vogt-Roberts (“The Kings of Summer”) tells the story of a diverse team of scientists, soldiers and adventurers uniting to explore a mythical, uncharted island in the Pacific,...

Produced and directed by Frank Dietz and Trish Geiger, the creative team behind the award-winning “Beast Wishes,” the documentary devotes primary attention to the 1933 classic, celebrating the contributions of filmmakers Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack, stars Fay Wray, Robert Armstrong, and Bruce Cabot, writer Edgar Wallace, and especially stop-motion innovator Willis O’Brien. But Kong’s legacy is also fully detailed: the sequel “Son of Kong,” the cinematic kin “Mighty Joe Young,” the Dino DeLaurentis and Peter Jackson remakes, even the Japanese versions by Toho Studios.

We may remember Independence Day, The Matrix, The Phantom Menace. But what about these forgotten 90s sci-fi films? And are any worth seeing?

Think back to the science fiction cinema of the 1990s, and some of the decade's biggest box-office hits will immediately spring to mind: The Phantom Menace, Jurassic Park, Independence Day, Men In Black, Armageddon and Terminator 2 were all in the top 20 most lucrative films of the era.

But what about the sci-fi films of the 1990s that failed to make even close to the same cultural and financial impact of those big hitters? These are the films this list is devoted to - the flops, the straight-to-video releases, the low-budget and critically-derided. We've picked 50 live-action films that fit these criteria, and dug them up to see whether they're still worth watching in the 21st century.

So here's a mix of everything from hidden classics to forgettable dreck,...

Legendary Pictures unleashed a mighty roar at Comic-Con last year when it announced big-budget King Kong prequel Kong: Skull Island, a period piece that will reintroduce moviegoers to the heralded Eighth Wonder of the World. Soon after, though, the pic fell somewhat under the radar. And now, as crowds prepare to again flood San Diego, it’s been revealed that Skull Island has suffered a serious blow, with both Michael Keaton and Jk Simmons vacating their roles.

The simultaneous exits are believed to relate to scheduling conflicts. Skull Island recently pushed back production from this fall to the end of the year, and the sure-to-be demanding shoot just couldn’t work out with both actors’ busier-than-ever slates. As for Tom Hiddleston, as far as we know, he still remains attached in the lead role.

Keaton, who was Oscar-nominated last year for a career-revitalizing lead turn in Birdman (or the Unexpected...

As Emma Willis remarked (once Perez had stopped prattling on about sleeping pills and self-medicating), he's had our brain in a spin for the last four weeks and has provided a host of watercooler moments - for good and for bad.

Plus, we'll really miss the angry way he dramatically pronounced Katie Hopkins.

Here's the showbiz blogger's most melodramatic moments on the show below:

1."Did you apologise to the woman whose husband you f**ked?!"

Perez Hilton unashamedly stepped back on his soapbox as he dramatically...

Celebrity Big Brother's Patsy Kensit has argued that Perez Hilton does have a "great side".

Kensit - who became the third celebrity to be evicted from the house last week - said that the showbiz columnist was someone she could "hang out with".

Hilton left the house last night (February 4) in a double eviction alongside popstar Kavana.

Speaking on Lorraine, Kensit said: "There was this divide and I said many times, 'I'm not joining anyone's army, we're not at school'... Perez has a great side to him when he's contained and I could hang out with that... I really like the guy. I think he probably loathes me!"

She said of her time in the house: "The tension in there even when there wasn't a row, it was palpable... the atmosphere you could cut it with a knife."

The former Emmerdale actress also admitted that her ex-husbands were surprised...

Cami Li compared Perez Hilton to "'80s porn - bad, but you can't take your eyes off it" following her shock eviction from last night's Celebrity Big Brother (February 2).

The Miami model was nominated alongside Keith Chegwin, Perez Hilton and Katie Price in the show's shock twist which saw her leave the house on Monday night..

Cami Li also criticised former housemate Nadia Sawalha for being "consumed by Perez's energy", and was cynical as to whether the Loose Women panelist had still liked the showbiz blogger towards the end of her time in the house.

Speaking to Digital Spy and others about her sudden exit, she revealed: "It was expected. I thought I was going to be next to go. We all know Perez's arse ain't going."

On whether she was surprised that the public had kept her in for so long, she joked: "Yeah, They're a tortured bunch.

Katie Hopkins and Perez Hilton took their tumultuous relationship to new levels of unrestraint as a tongue-waggling Perez chased a terrified Katie around the house on Celebrity Big Brother last night (January 28).

Perez dramatically re-entered the house after living in a secret abode following his staged walkout, and "he's sweating horribly," was the first thing Katie H was finally able to muster.

But before long, he was trying to lick and kiss her face as she brushed him off and dubbed him a "rodent" and the pictures of the pair were priceless.

He offered a ceasefire, but alas, Kaite H would not relent.

We celebrate their ridiculous war of words so far with our timeline below:

"He could work on toning his body up and toning his voice down"

On the first night of Celebrity Big Brother, Katie H was cast under by an evil Big Brother curse, which meant...

An "explicit" and sexually suggestive scene featuring Perez Hilton and Katie Hopkins was reportedly cut from last night's (January 28) Celebrity Big Brother.

According to The Sun, the showbiz blogger was seen "frantically thrusting his hips" at the controversial columnist before singing the lyrics, "Lick it good, suck this d**k, just like you should" from Khia hit 'My Neck, My Back'.

Channel 5 representatives declined to comment when contacted by Digital Spy.

Prior to the apparent performance, Perez had tried to make amends with Katie Hopkins and proposed: "Let's have a hug and one night of fun."

However, she refused a reconciliation, and instead laughed as Perez chased her around the house and attempted to kiss her cheek. He also tried to lick her face but she brushed him off and retorted: "Bye bye rodent."

Perez re-entered the house after Patsy Kensit's eviction on Tuesday, having lived in a secret...

Patsy Kensit is planning to go horse riding with Katie Price. The former 'Emmerdale' actress has confessed she got on well with the 36-year-old star in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house as they bonded over their love of animals and have planned to go horse riding together once the show is over. Quizzed on whether the former glamour model's conversations about her sex life with her ex-partners made her feel uncomfortable, Patsy said: ''No, not at all. I think she's great. We both love horses and I'm probably going to go riding with her because I grew up with, I don't know...

Perez Hilton tries to make amends with Katie Hopkins as he re-enters the house on tonight's (January 28) Celebrity Big Brother episode.

The showbiz blogger had been living in a secret abode after staging a walkout as part of a secret task set by Big Brother.

He made his return after Patsy Kensit's eviction last night, and the viewers' decision on whether he should be eternally nominated or given a free pass to the final was also announced.

They decided that he should face 'eternal nomination'.

Katie Hopkins tells Perez that she both values and believes in the British public following the outcome of the result.

Perez replies: "I don't give a s**t about the British public." He then attempts to lick Katie Hopkins's face and kiss her, while she laughs and is chased by Perez around the room.

He proposes: "Let's have a hug and one night of fun.

Celebrity Big Brother evictee Patsy Kensit has confirmed that she had spray tans during her time in the house.

Patsy, who was evicted last night, told reporters today that rumours she had been given the treatment were true.

However, she dismissed suggestions that she was getting special treatment by pointing out that all the housemates had requirements before they joined the show.

"I've had two spray tans over three weeks because I look like I've got consumption," she joked. "I go really white and I've got yellow in my skin and it's not a pretty sight.

"We all had things that we could do - some people were writing columns. Everyone had a little bit of a rider. I wasn't the only person that had something happen to them."

Patsy also revealed that Big Brother was concerned that her use of the name "Chola" for her fellow housemate Cami Li may have been considered offensive.
