We’re somehow already in the fourth quarter of 2024, but the good news is that we’re getting a new Nick Frost horror movie every month as we wrap up this year. The action horror comedy Krazy House, which JoBlo’s own Chris Bumbray hated when he caught a screening at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, was given a VOD release on October 4th. The serial killer thriller Get Away will be getting a theatrical release on December 6th. And slotting in between those two is the supernatural horror movie Black Cab, which is coming our way from Shudder, Sony Pictures Television, and Stolen Pictures, and will be released through the Shudder streaming service on November 8th.

Black Cab debuts on Shudder beginning Friday, November 8.

Exclusively watch the official trailer below.

Nick Frost will play “an erratic cab driver” in the upcoming horror movie from director Bruce Goodison (Murdered By My Father, Leave To Remain, Then Barbara Met Alan).

In Black Cab, “When Anne (Synnøve Karlsen) and Patrick (Luke Norris) hail a black cab after a night out their driver (Nick Frost) is chatty, jovial even, but they are in no mood to talk. In fact, the couple is barely on speaking terms. That is, until they realize the driver has no intention of taking them home.

“Locked in the cab with no means of escape, the driver transports the couple to a stretch of deserted and supposedly haunted road.

You can expect Black Cab to open up its doors on Shudder later this year.

2019’s Murder Mystery was an international romp which saw Jennifer Aniston’s crime novel-obsessed hairdresser and Adam Sandler’s cop take a European trip and get swept up in a whodunit. It was a hit for Netflix becoming one of the streamer’s most watched movies and a sequel was greenlit which is now upon us.

Aniston and Sandler are back as husband and wife Audrey and Nick but who else has returned and who has joined the cast? Where have you seen these actors before? Mystery solved!

Adeel Aktar as The Maharajar

British actor, Aktar is back as the Maharajar. He’s been in all manner of films and shows in the UK, and has a BAFTA as well as several more nominations. You might recognise him as Faisal from Four Lions, Lestrade in the Enola Holmes movies or from a whole raft of quality British shows include Utopia,...

The Bafta-winning actor on Four Lions, Enola Holmes and why he spent lockdown retracing his family history – and trampolining

I don’t know if it’s the heat – it’s 35C on the late summer day we meet for lunch at an outside table at the Canton Arms on south London’s busy Lambeth Road – but there’s an enjoyable sort of maziness to conversation with Adeel Akhtar. He prefaces nearly every response to a direct question by saying, “I don’t know if this is a connected thought at all”, or “I’m going to answer that by talking about something else entirely”. The lightly evasive manner fits with Akhtar’s beguiling screen presence, you can never quite pin him down; his resting face is a mournful tragic mask, which means he is capable of generous comedy as well as convincing pathos and despair. He’s stolen tons of scenes on film and TV,...

Exclusive: Adeel Akhtar, who was recently seen opposite Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in Netflix’s highly-viewed original movie Murder Mystery, has landed a role in the Enola Holmes film adaptation from Legendary. He joins Millie Bobby Brown who will star as the titular character as well as Henry Cavill who is down for the role of Sherlock Holmes and Helena Bonham Carter as Enola’s mother.

Directed by Harry Bradbeer, the pic is based on Nancy Springer’s six-book series, The Enola Holmes Mysteries, which follows the adventures of Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes’ much younger sister, Enola, a highly capable detective in her own right. Jack Thorne adapted the screenplay.

Brown and Paige Brown are producing through their Pcma Productions shingle alongside Legendary, while Alex Garcia and Ali Mendes will oversee for the studio.

Akhtar’s credits include The Big Sick, Victoria & Abdul, Killing Eve, and Murdered by My Father,...

“Back to Life,” a new comedy from the producers of “Fleabag,” has set its cast and entered production. Daisy Haggard co-wrote the series and plays the lead character, Miri Mattheson, an ex-con returning to her seaside hometown after 18 years in prison. Geraldine James (“Sherlock Holmes”) and Richard Durden (“Harlots”) will play Miri’s parents as she readjusts to life on the outside.

They appear alongside a roster of British talent in the series for online network BBC Three, including Adeel Akhtar (“Murdered by My Father”), who plays Miri’s neighbor, and Jamie Michie (“Game of Thrones”), who plays her first love.

All3Media-baked Two Brothers Pictures, the hot British shingle behind shows including “Fleabag” and “Rellik,” is on production duty. Liam Williams (“Pls Like”), Souad Faress (“Bridget Jones’s Baby”), Jo Martin (“Been So Long”), Christine Bottomley (“The End of the F***ing World”) and Frank Feys (“A Perfect Day...

The actor on a lucky necklace, a brush with the law and putting on his own play

Born in London, Adeel Akhtar, 37, was educated at Cheltenham College. He studied to become a lawyer before attending drama school in New York. His television work includes Utopia, Capital and The Night Manager. In 2016, he starred in the BBC drama Murdered By My Father and became the first non-white actor to win a best actor Bafta. His films include Four Lions, Victoria & Abdul and Swimming With Men, which is released this summer. He is married with a son, and lives in London.

When were you happiest?

At boarding school, I was unable to get the main part in Hamlet, so I put on a production of The Homecoming with my friends. The teachers came to see it and said they didn’t know I had it in me. It felt very good.

Adam Sandler's Netflix movie, Murder Mystery, will reunite him with his Just Go with It co-star, Jennifer Aniston.

Adam Sandler, comedy’s former box office king, has spent the past few years making Netflix his exclusive feature film home, thanks to a lucrative deal, one that was even reupped last year for four more films. With Sandler’s Netflix sandbox having reunited him with various former SNL co-stars, notably with Chris Rock in the recent comedy, The Week Of, the upcoming movie, Murder Mystery, is facilitating a reunion with Jennifer Aniston, with whom he co-starred in 2011’s Just Go with It.

In the latest news, Netflix has revealed loads of new details for Murder Mystery, including an updated synopsis and full cast list.

Netflix released a brand new trailer for the upcoming season of Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror. The two-minute trailer consists of a mix of clips from the new episodes as well as the launch date for the new season.

If you happened to blink for a really long time towards the end of the trailer and didn’t catch the launch date, it is December 29, 2017. Just in time to binge watch on your holiday break.

IMDb has the episode count at six for season 4. Below is some episode information.

“Arkangel”

Cast: Rosemarie Dewitt (La La Land, Mad Men), Brenna Harding (A Place to Call Home), Owen Teague (Bloodline)

Director: Jodie Foster

Written by: Charlie Brooker

“USS Callister”

Cast: Jesse Plemons (Black Mass, Fargo), Cristin Milioti (The Wolf of Wall Street, Fargo), Jimmi Simpson (Westworld, House of Cards), Michaela Coel (Chewing Gum, Monsters: Dark Continent)

Director: Toby Haynes (Dr Who, Sherlock...

On the heels of one Season 4 trailer for Black Mirror, we get another! That's no big deal, of course, considering each episode is a stand-alone product, but I do have one issue. Netflix is teasing the hell out of Season 4...but offering no release date as to when we can expect to see it! What the hell guys?! Do you just want to torture us? I need my sweet sci-fi stories that make me feel uncomfortable for days following!

Check out the trailer for Crocodile below, and once again be frightened with the future we could one day live in.

Crocodile was directed by John Hillcoat (The Road, Lawless) and stars Andrea Riseborough (Birdman, Bloodline), Andrew Gower (Outlander), and Kiran Sonia Sawar (Murdered By My Father).

“Black Mirror” continues to whet our appetite for its new batch of episodes with the new trailer for “Crocodile,” starring Andrea Riseborough (“Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)”) and directed by John Hillcoat.

The official description involves a dark secret in Mia’s (Riseborough) past that comes back to haunt her. The episode, filmed in Iceland, also features what Netflix calls “a new device that can access your raw impressions of events.”

Because it’s “Black Mirror,” we, of course, know to expect a few more twists than what that premise promises. But all the classic elements of the series created by Charlie Brooker seem to be here: complicated human beings, whose lives get even more complicated by technology— though “Crocodile” does offer the added bonus of Iceland’s dramatically beautiful landscapes.

Two new photos have been released for the fourth season of Netflix's Black Mirror. The first image teases the Star Trek-inspired episode "USS Callister" and the second on is for the episode titled "Arkangel". This is such an amazing series and I can't wait to see what crazy twisted stories we'll be getting in this next season. To watch the previously released teaser trailer for the series, click here.

Below the photo, you'll find the details that have been released for each of the six episodes that Season 4 will consist of:

“Crocodile,” directed by John Hillcoat (The Road, Lawless) and starring Andrea Riseborough (Birdman, Bloodline), Andrew Gower (Outlander), Kiran Sonia Sawar (Murdered By My Father).

“Arkangel,” directed by Jodie Foster (Money Monster, The Silence of the Lambs) and starring Rosemarie Dewitt (La La Land, Mad Men), Brenna Harding (A Place to Call Home), Owen Teague (Bloodline).

“Hang the DJ,...

‘Black Mirror‘ is a show that I absolutely love. In what is the closest thing to a modern day ‘Twilight Zone‘, creator/show runner Charlie Booker‘s hypnotic series has managed to captivate audiences in it’s first three seasons. The show – which was originally aired on BBC – was expanded to a six episode format after Netflix picked up the show for it’s third, and now fourth season, and is highly anticipated to say the least.

Season 3 was backed by some incredible talent, and based on the trailer for season 4, this trend seems to be continuing. In particular, this upcoming season provides a hefty dose of talent in the director’s chair that includes: Jodie Foster, John Hillcoat (The Road, Lawless), David Slade (Hannibal), Colm McCarthy(Peaky Blinders) and Toby Haynes (Dr Who), Tim Van Patten(The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, Boardwalk Empire).

Here’s the full trailer for...

If you're a fan of Black Mirror drop what you're doing and watch the first teaser trailer for Season 4 now! Hell, it looks like there's a Star Trek inspired episode! The promo basically gives us the titles of the episodes in Season 4 and offers a little snippet of footage from each one. I'm definitely intrigued by what I'm seeing! It looks like we've got a great new season of greatness ahead of us.

Black Mirror taps into the collective unease of the modern world, with each standalone episode delivering a sharp, suspenseful tale of the myriad of ways technology has transformed all aspects of human life — in every home, on every desk, in every palm; on a plasma screen, monitor or Smartphone.

Here is a list of the titles and the cast involved thanks to THR:

The previously announced Jodie Foster-directed episode now has a title, "Arkangel," and along...

Six new realities await.

Netflix has today unveiled the freaky first teaser for Black Mirror season 4, along with the stellar cast list and official episode titles. In keeping with the show’s knack for puzzles and confounding, reality-altering mystery, the trailer above is a super-sleek and fairly ominous peek at those “six new stories,” all of which come from the mind of series creator and showrunner, Charlie Brooker.

Remaining behind the scenes for the time being, today also brings confirmation that Jodie Foster directed season 4’s pilot episode, “Arkangel,” with Toby Haynes (Sherlock), John Hillcoat (Triple 9) and David Slade (Hannibal) also receiving credits. Casting-wise, Black Mirror has added the likes of Jesse Plemons (Fargo), Jimmi Simpson (Westworld) and Rosemarie Dewitt (La La Land) to its ranks, and the first-look teaser shows Netflix’s dark, prescient anthology series venturing into full-blown sci-fi territory. One would assume that Star Trek-esque...

What’s in a title? In the case of Netflix’s Emmy-nominated anthology series “Black Mirror,” sometimes quite a lot, as revealed in the teaser trailer released that offers not just a glimpse at first footage, but the full list of episode names we can expect from the upcoming fourth season.

The six episode titles, along with accompanying images:

“Crocodile” (featuring two women, one in a hat and the other in a headscarf) “Arkangel” (with footage including a little girl and some unique tablet technology) “Hang the DJ” (involving a young couple and some sort of mobile game) “USS Callister” (a “Star Trek”-esque spaceship appears to be in danger) “Metalhead” (monochromatic footage including a robot of some kind?) “Black Museum” (fancy headgear and booby traps, amongst other images)

The latest in BBC Three's 'Murdered By' series is a powerful look at the devastation caused by intolerance...

We exist in a time when pointless, devastating violence is an all-too common occurrence, whether it’s knife crime amongst teenagers, terrorism or people simply letting their opposing views turn into physical conflicts. We’re as divided as ever, and the lines we draw between ourselves and the people we encounter everyday are ever-more arbitrary despite the heavy cost.

Murdered for Being Different, then, is exactly the kind of thing BBC Three should be making. Following previous instalments Murdered By My Boyfriend and Murdered By My Father, it takes a real-world event and with it attempts to make a wider statement. Unlike those other episodes’ subject matter, however, the murder...
