Before she retired from acting to build the company Space, Bridgit Mendler played Teddy Duncan on the Disney Channel series Good Luck Charlie. During her time on the series, Mendler fell for her co-star Shane Harper, who played Spencer Walsh. In the series, Mendler’s Teddy and Harper’s Spencer are dating from the first season, despite Spencer’s huge red flags.

Both the reel and real-life partnerships ended badly for the two. Coincidentally, there was a darker story behind how Mendler and Harper’s story ended, just like in the series. Mendler went on to tie the knot with Griffin Cleverly, who also became her business partner.

A conservative and a faith-based film landed at nos. 4 and 10 at the domestic box office this weekend, with a solid showing for anime Dan Dan Dan: First Encounter and a nice limited opening for My Old Ass.

Am I Racist?, the first theatrical release from Jeremy Boreing and Ben Shapiro’s The Daily Wire, had a phenomenal opening weekend grossing $4.75 million on 1,517 screens for the no. 4 spot at the domestic box office and one of the top documentary bows of the past decade.

The anti-dei film is distributed by Sdg Releasing, which also handled Walsh’s previous doc What Is A Woman?.

Am I A Racist? follows the host of podcast The Matt Walsh Show as he goes undercover with tweed jacket and ponytail to earn his Dei certificate on a mock journey toward “anti-racism.”

Sean McNamara’s biopic Reagan moves well beyond hero worship, as it paints the 40th U.S. president as a saint among men. The film opens with Ronald Reagan (Dennis Quaid) quoting his mother via voiceover—“Everything, even seemingly random twists of fate, is all a part of the divine plan”—just as it cuts to a vision of John Hinckley Jr.’s 1981 attempted assassination of the president. The mix of slow-mo re-enactment and archival footage is the first of many bizarre, unintentionally funny moments in a film that’s determined not only to position Reagan as the great man of the second half of the 20th century, but as a man ordained by God to defeat the colossal, religion- and freedom-hating villain of our times: communism.

In an especially strange decision, the story of Reagan’s life is told from the perspective of a fictionalized Kgb agent, Victor Novikov...

Tyler Perry is making the movie Black, White & Blue at Amazon Studios. It’s the first title under a four feature film deal he inked with the streamer back in November.

Gravitas Ventures has acquired U.S. and Canadian distribution rights to Too Late, a horror comedy that marks the debut feature from director D.W. Thomas and writer Tom Becker.

Tenet’s lukewarm second weekend is a sign that the domestic box office still has a long way to go before things get back to normal, especially as New York and Los Angeles theaters remain shuttered.

In the wake of Tenet’s second weekend box office performance, release dates have been shuffled yet again. Warner Bros’ push of Wonder Woman 1984 from October 2 to Christmas gives Tenet a longer competition-free run. Candyman left its October 16 release date and is now expected to be released in 2021. STX Entertainment’s Greenland, which stars Gerard Butler and made $11.5 million internationally, was pushed from its September 25 release to an undecided date later this year. The one move up in the release schedule came from Universal, moving The Croods: A New Age from December 23 to November 25.

This week’s only wide release is the Jim Caviezel starrer Infidel, which opens on 1,724 screens. It is the first release from Cloudburst Entertainment,...

Coming in on par with Mojo's pre-weekend forecast, Steven Spielberg's Ready Player One topped the weekend box office and delivered the director's largest opening weekend in ten years. The weekend also saw a strong second place debut for Lionsgate's Acrimony, the latest film from Tyler Perry, while Black Panther and I Can Only Imagine remain in the top five with their continued impressive runs.

Not so impressive was the debut for Pure Flix's God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness, which finished outside the top ten and short of expectations.

At the top of the box office is Steven Spielberg's Ready Player One, delivering an estimated $53.2 million four-day after debuting on Thursday, and $41.2 million for the standard three-day weekend for the fifth largest Easter opening ever. The film is the largest opening weekend for Spielberg since the $100 million debut for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the...

Considering that the whole point of religion is faith, Christian audiences seem to need a whole lot of reassuring. The third entry in the successful God's Not Dead series yet again makes the argument that God is, you know, not dead. It's beginning to feel as repetitive as Chevy Chase's declarations during the first season of Saturday Night Live that "Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead." But while God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness proves less fiery in its preaching than its predecessors, it's also a significantly duller offering. How could it not be, considering that its main plot...

Saturday Am Update: Ready Player One brought in an estimated $15.2 million on Friday, pushing the film's two-day total to $27.2 million. Current expectations are for a four-day total around $52-53 million and $40+ million for the three-day weekend. The film received an "A-" CinemaScore from opening day audiences. Lionsgate's release of Tyler Perry's Acrimony delivered big numbers on Friday, coming in with an estimated $7.26 million along with an "A-" CinemaScore. The film is currently expected to finish around $17 million for the three-day. Pure Flix's release of God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness is struggling out of the gates, delivering an estimated $1.1 million on Friday, looking at a $3 million weekend. The film also received an "A-" CinemaScore. You can check out all of the Friday estimates right here and we'll be back tomorrow morning with a complete look at the weekend.

It had to happen at some point and this was the weekend that saw Black Panther's streak as the #1 film at the weekend box office come to an end at the hands of Pacific Rim Uprising. That being said, it wasn't a down weekend for Black Panther at all as it became the highest grossing superhero film of all-time, topping The Avengers with a domestic cume that now totals $630.9 million, becoming one of the top five domestic releases of all-time. This weekend also saw another stellar performance for Roadside and Lionsgate's I Can Only Imagine, which finished in third place, topping Paramount and MGM's Sherlock Gnomes, which struggled over the course of its opening weekend, falling short of pre-weekend expectations. At the top, Universal and Legendary's Pacific Rim Uprising delivered an estimated $28 million three-day opening from 3,708 locations. While not a stellar opening for a film of this size,...

While Tatum O'Neal has endured her share of tough times — including a bitter divorce from tennis champ John McEnroe and public battles with addiction and her movie star dad, Ryan O'Neal — she tells Closer Weekly, in an exclusive interview, that she is excited about her life now. Tatum is starring in the new film God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness and enjoys being "a devoted mom" to her kids, Kevin, 31, Sean, 30, and Emily, 26. As they've gotten older, their relationship has "changed for the better," Tatum, 54, reveals to Closer. "I think we have a lot in common now, and you become more like comrades. I have a lot of joy in my life." While her relationship with her kids has improved, her relationship with ex John has remained "complicated." Tatum tells Closer, "I was the one who left the marriage, and I don't know if you've ever seen John mad,...
