He does whatever a Spider can and he does it extremely well. The webslinger known as Spider-Man has been a staple of Marvel Comics since 1960, thrilling readers all over the world with his exceptional talents, outlandish adventures, and genuinely lovable personality. Peter Parker is a legend among legends and that enduring appeal has seen him transcend his genre to become one of the most prominent movie characters of all time, too.

There have been many Spider-Man movies through the years, with multiple actors to play the wall-crawler to go along with them. For years, he existed as a cinematic titan all on his own, with Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield portraying him in their respective movie series; now, Tom Holland has taken over the role for the past decade, bringing the character to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to cross him over with The Avengers.

With a new MCU trilogy kicking...

Deborah Ann Woll shared concept art from Spider-Man: Brand New Day that had Daredevil fans going crazy. The actor teased a Punisher crossover, sparking rumors that Karen Page is also appearing in the sequel.

Fans can't help but read into Woll's Instagram post, where she shared Spider-Man: Brand New Day fan art. Jon Bernthal's Punisher is already confirmed to appear in the sequel, so the visual is pretty much staple fare. The photo shows a spider weaving a web that looks like Punisher's skull symbol, hinting at Frank Castle's pivotal role in the movie. It's long overdue, but Marvel and Sony have been dropping hints of the crossover, well ahead of Tom Holland's "Spider-Man Day" announcement last March.

From thrilling new stories to nostalgic favorites, the streaming platform has something for everyone, whether you’re into action-packed adventures or lighthearted comedies.

The lineup features exclusive premieres like ‘The Phoenician Scheme’ (2025), which dropped on July 25, and ‘Borderline’ (2025), hitting screens on August 1. Alongside these, beloved titles like ‘Clueless’ (1995) and ‘Bring It On’ (2000) are drawing crowds, proving that some stories never get old. Let’s dive into the top ten movies captivating audiences this week, counting down from number ten to the top spot.

10. The Smurfs (2011) Columbia Pictures

This animated adventure brings the tiny blue creatures to life in a modern world. ‘The Smurfs’ (2011) follows Smurfette, Papa Smurf, and the gang as they tumble through a magical portal from their village to New York City.

Deadline reports that Charlize Theron and Channing Tatum are set to team up for Dance Parents, a new comedy from director Jonathan Levine (Long Shot). The outlet adds that the project was the subject of a big bidding war, with Universal Pictures ultimately walking away the victor. Meghan Malloy (a writer on Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) is set to write the script.

Plot details are being kept under wraps at the moment, but you can imagine there might be some dancing and some parents. Can’t fool me.

In addition to starring in the film, Theron and Channing will also produce the project. Theron will produce with partners Beth Kono and Aj Dix through their Secret Menu first-look deal with Universal Pictures alongside Matt Maher and Drue Robertson of Secret Menu. Tatum will produce with Reid Carolin and Peter Kiernan through their Free Association company alongside Eve Brigham and Garret Levitz overseeing for Fa.

From acclaimed documentaries to searing dramas to hilarious comedies, the streamer has something for everyone.

In the ever-expanding world of streaming services, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of platforms where you can watch movies and TV shows. However, for true cinephiles who want a carefully curated lineup of titles across genres — from independent dramas and award‑winning documentaries to foreign favorites and cult classics — one of the best below-the-radar options is Magnolia Selects.

Launched as part of Magnolia Pictures’ digital offerings, the streamer offers a wide swatch of independent and foreign films and documentaries that are often unavailable on larger platforms, making it a go‑to destination for film buffs seeking something a bit more refined. Magnolia Selects has an incredible library, including such favorites as the acclaimed documentary about Philippe Petit’s high-wire act “Man on Wire,” the original Scandinavian...

The Social Networkis getting a long-awaited sequel, but no, it won't feature Jesse Eisenberg as the controversial founder of Facebook. A pair of rising actors are being eyed to play two entirely new roles in the follow-up film, which will follow the more recent (and destructive) impact of the popular social media platform.

Deadline reports that Oscar-winner Mikey Madison (Anora) and Jeremy Allen White (The Bear) are the top choices to lead The Social Network Part II. Aaron Sorkin, who is writing and directing the film, is basing the sequel on The Facebook Files by Jeff Horowitz for The Wall Street Journal. If deals are made with the actors, White would play Horowitz, while Madison would be in line to play the whistleblower behind the articles that exposed Facebook's questionable internal strategy and lack of care for the harmful effects of their platform.

Madison has been selective since receiving a...

Mikey Madison and Jeremy Allen White are circling the lead roles for Aaron Sorkin’s sequel to the 2010 Oscar winner “The Social Network,” according to sources with knowledge of the project.

While no offers have been made, Sorkin has met with both Madison and White about the project. The film is still very much in the development stage and has yet to receive the green light from Sony.

Sony declined to comment on the casting.

Sorkin is set to write and direct the follow-up to David Fincher’s 2010 original. While that film followed the creation of the ubiquitous social media platform and the rise of its boy-genius founder Mark Zuckerberg, the sequel is based on “The Facebook Files” from Jeff Horwitz. Published by the Wall Street Journal in 2021, the series of articles exposed Facebook for its harmful effects on teens and its knowing proliferation of misinformation, which contributed to acts of political violence.

Almost thirty years after it first stormed theaters, the open-ended conclusion of Joe Dante's 1998 action-figure epic Small Soldiers has been expanded upon by one of the film's screenwriters. When asked by a fan on Twitter if the film's action-figure protagonists ever reached their destination, Adam Rifkin answered in the enthusiastic affirmative. Rifkin wrote the film with Gavin Scott, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio.

Small Soldiers centers around two warring factions of action figures inadvertently given military-grade artificial intelligence chips: in the end, the heroic Gorgonites set out to seek their home planet, Gorgon. Of course, the planet Gorgon was a product of toy-company marketers, and never existed, but when they find a picture of Yellowstone National Park, they believe it to be the "real" Gorgon; Rifkin (whose other credits include Mouse Hunt and The Last Movie Star) insists that, in some sense, the Gorgonites made it home. As the...

Released in 1998, Small Soldiers was not a heavy hitter at the box office at the time, dashing any hopes of getting a sequel. Even so, the movie was able to garner a cult following, and fans are still wondering what may have ultimately happened with Archer and the Gorgonites.

Directed by Gremlins helmer Joe Dante, Small Soldiers is the story of toy soldiers brought to life with their own distinct personalities when they are implanted with advanced military technology. There are two different teams: the "Commando Elite" soldiers and the "Gorgonites," a group of peaceful monsters intended to serve as educational toys. Things go from bad to worse when the two factions go to war, putting the human lives around them in danger.

The film was co-written by Gavin Scott, Adam Rifkin, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio. At the end of the movie, the Gorgonites are last seen embarking in...

Ahead of its premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival in September, Lionsgate has debut the full-length official trailer for Aziz Ansari's upcoming feature directorial debut Good Fortune.

The film follows a well-meaning but rather inept angel named Gabriel (Keanu Reeves), who meddles in the lives of a struggling gig worker named Arj (Aziz Ansari) and a wealthy venture capitalist named Jeff (Seth Rogen). In an effort to show Arj that the life of wealth isn't all that it's cracked up to be, he swaps Arj's life with Jeff's and, as expected, chaos ensues as everything begins to unravel around them.

The film stars Keanu Reeves (John Wick; The Matrix), Seth Rogen (Superbad; This Is the End), Aziz Ansari (Parks and Recreation; Master of None), Keke Palmer (Nope; Hustlers), Sandra Oh (Killing Eve; Grey’s Anatomy), Sherry Cola (Joy Ride; Good Trouble), and Stephen McKinley Henderson (Dune; Fences).

Star Trek: The Next Generation certainly saw its share of guest stars during its 7-season run. Many child actors also cut their professional teeth on the show, including Kirsten Dunst, who went on to massive success in movies like Interview With the Vampire and Fargo.

When it comes to child actors who guest-starred on the show, however, few have had such a diverse career as Joshua Harris. Harris appeared as Timothy on Star Trek: The Next Generation in the episode “Hero Worship” (S05E11), a young lone survivor of a lost ship who begins to emulate Data to process the loss of his parents, who were on board. Harris gave a fine performance, but did you know that his career afterward is one of the most diverse post-Trek? Let’s take a look!

After his turn on Next Generation, Harris appeared in several TV movies in the 1990s, including Go...

So, if you are looking to spend your weekend watching great storytelling, you are at the right place.

From historical dramas to psychological thrillers, there’s a variety of tones and genres in this short list of 5 Hulu originals.

Nicole Kidman leads a star-studded cast of Michael Shannon, Melissa McCarthy, Regina Hall, and more as they head to a wellness retreat.

When you think of Sam Raimi, it's common for one of two things to pop up in your head: the Spider-Man franchise starring Tobey Maguire (Babylon) and Kirsten Dunst (Civil War) or the Evil Dead horror movies led by Bruce Campbell(Hysteria!). You hardly think about Raimi when listing Westerns, but the filmmaker took on the challenge of stepping out of his comfort zone back in the mid-'90s in order to film The Quick and the Dead. As the movie celebrates its 30th anniversary, it has suddenly climbed the Netflix global charts to become one of the top 10 most-watched movies of the week on the platform.

It's not difficult to see what attracted Raimi to this particular Western. Since Westerns were traditionally led by macho figures like John Wayne (True Grit) and Clint Eastwood, The Quick and the Deadsubverted the genre by centering around a woman gunslinger played by...

The festival opens at Regal LA Live with a selection of four shorts including Como si la tierra se las hubiera tragado, directed by Natalia León, an animated short that won the jury award at the Sundance Film Festival.

A year before he became a pop culture icon as Doc Brown in Back to the Future, Christopher Lloyd also played the Klingon captain Kruge in Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. The third Star Trek movie with the original series cast was a direct follow-up to Wrath of Khan, and was directed by Leonard Nimoy.

Lloyd played the Klingon commander who is in search of the Genesis planet and is a ruthless leader who does not take failure lightly. The actor mentioned that he had a lot of fun playing the part and had to come to set as early as 4 Am to put on the makeup for the role (via Variety).

Mj's been part of Spider-Man's world since her first on-panel appearance in "The Amazing Spider-Man" #42, by Stan Lee and John Romita Sr. It took a while for her and Peter to truly get together, but Mj's the girl Peter Parker eventually married, no matter what Marvel Comics editorial has been saying since the controversial arc "One More Day."

Mary Jane is so famous as the Spider-Man love interest that a lot of adaptations skip right to her, like the 1994 "Spider-Man" cartoon produced by John Semper, Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley's "Ultimate Spider-Man" comic reboot, and the Sam Raimi "Spider-Man" films, for instance. But to use...

Sofia Coppola made an impact in Paris with an elegant Bal d’Été that blended art, fashion, and exclusivity — with no mobile phones allowed.

The Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris was the setting for an unforgettable evening when Sofia Coppola took on the role of artistic director for the first Bal d’Été, a gala that combined classic luxury with a carefully curated contemporary vision. In an era where everything seems designed for social media, Coppola chose the opposite approach: guests’ mobile phones were covered with stickers over the cameras to preserve the event’s intimacy.

The American filmmaker, dressed in Chanel haute couture, designed every detail of the night: from intensely pink napkins to the after-party music provided by the band Phoenix, led by her husband Thomas Mars. Every corner of the museum — from the chandeliers to the floral arrangements on round tables — reflected an aesthetic meant to be experienced,...

Why Spider-Man Stars Keep Falling for Each Other Despite Studio Warnings (Photo Credit – Instagram)

On-screen sparks turning into off-screen heat? Hollywood’s seen it all. But when it comes to Spider-Man flicks, the chemistry seems to jump straight out of the script and into real life. Tom Holland and Zendaya lit up the screen in Spider-Man: Homecoming, but fans didn’t just fall for their characters. The actors themselves soon became a top-tier Hollywood couple. But long before, a high-up exec in the Spider-Man universe reportedly told them to keep things strictly professional.

The thing is, this wasn’t the first time such advice was handed out. Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield got the same memo. And just like Holland and Zendaya, they ignored it. So why do Spider-Man stars keep falling for each other even when told not to? What’s with this web of romance swinging through every reboot?...

Anne Hathaway almost didn’t play Andy Sachs. Discover which actresses were nearly cast in The Devil Wears Prada before her.

Anne Hathaway is now synonymous with the iconic role of Andy Sachs in The Devil Wears Prada, but few know that she was actually the ninth choice to star in the hit 2006 film. Years after its release, the truth behind the casting continues to astonish—especially since several high-profile actresses came very close to landing the lead role.

The revelation came from Hathaway herself during a television interview, where she confessed that many studios and producers didn’t initially see her as the best fit for a story set in the competitive world of fashion. However, her persistence—and the withdrawal of other candidates—eventually worked in her favour.

Among the actresses considered before Hathaway were several well-known names who, at the time, had a more commercially bankable profile.

Channing Tatum stars in Roofman, a striking film based on true events that combines action, suspense, and emotional drama.

Channing Tatum surprises in the new poster for ‘Roofman‘, sporting shorts and a pool float. In this eye-catching image, the 45-year-old actor appears wearing a blue t-shirt, yellow sunglasses, white shorts, a giant teddy bear draped over his shoulders, and a float around his waist, while holding a gun. This unusual combination reflects the unique and surprising tone of the film.

‘Roofman‘ is based on a true story that seems ripped from a fiction film. Channing Tatum plays Jeffrey Manchester, a former Army Ranger facing severe financial difficulties. To survive, he begins robbing McDonald’s restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs, earning the nickname ‘Roofman’. The plot thickens when he escapes from prison and decides to hide inside a Toys “R” Us store for six months, undetected while planning his next move.

The New York Times has spoken and the publication’s top 100 movies of the 21st century have officially been announced. Dramas, comedies, thrillers, and action flicks abound in the packed list that features movie stars like Tom Cruise and Kirsten Dunst and filmmakers like Steven Soderbergh and David Lynch. Amidst all the excitement, one genre is going largely unsung: horror. It shouldn’t come as a shock to many that the spooky-scary styling isn’t getting as much love as its high-octane or heartfelt brothers and sisters. However, the eighth spot goes to one of not only the greatest genre features of the 21st century, but one that we’d consider to be up there with the greatest of all time. Wedged in between Hayao Miyazaki’s Spirited Away and Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is Jordan Peele’s masterpiece, Get Out.

Serving as the creative genius’ feature-length directorial debut,...
