Exclusive: Briarcliff Entertainment and The Solution Entertainment Group are set to release horror-thriller Werewolves, starring Frank Grillo (Captain America).

The two companies are planning a wide stateside release in theaters on December 6, 2024. Sales firm The Solution, which has recently sold Liam Neeson films The Ice Road and Mongoose, is growing its domestic distribution footprint and this marks their second release after Neeson pic Blacklight.

In Werewolves a supermoon event triggers a latent gene in every human on the planet, turning anyone who entered the moonlight into a werewolf for that one night. Chaos ensued and close to a billion people died. Now, a year later, the Supermoon is back. Above is a first look image.

Katrina Law (NCIS), Ilfenesh Hadera (Godfather Of Harlem), James Michael Cummings (City On The Hill) and Lou Diamond Phillips (Prodigal Son) also star in the recently completed film. Steven C. Miller (Line Of Duty) directs...

The final day of The London Action Festival began with a screening of sci-fi/action classic Predator at Picturehouse Central. Once again, director John McTiernan took to the stage following the film for an extended, outspoken interview/Q&a session during which he discussed the production and his career.

McTiernan told the audience how, with Predator, he was “trying to make a film for a fourteen year old boy that was full of nonsense and looked heroic” yet he was inspired by European cinema, specifically films by Fellini and Bertolucci, as “most mainstream American directors were making action films using just master, medium and close-up shots”.

McTiernan recalled how terrible the original Predator design/suit looked was and how the process of designing and constructing a new one resulted in delays. McTiernan said he wanted to make the Predator look as authentic as possible. In order to achieve this, he recalled testing several special effects,...

Note: The following contains spoilers for “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers”

Chip and Dale may be the stars of the new Disney+ original film “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers” but it’s another character entirely that seems to be stealing the show. Brace yourselves: Ugly Sonic has returned.

And no, that’s not us being judgmental — his name in this film actually is Ugly Sonic (and he’s voiced by “I Think You Should Leave” star/creator Tim Robinson). Of course, that name stems from the harsh criticism of fans. When the original CG Sonic was unveiled in the first trailer for “Sonic the Hedgehog” back in 2019, fans revolted — hard. The backlash was so intense that Paramount actually did go back to the drawing board to redesign the character that was voiced by Ben Schwartz.

But even though Ugly Sonic is gone, he clearly hasn’t been forgotten.

In “Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers...

Jimmy Kimmel has once again tested positive for the coronavirus, making it his second infection in a month. As a result, comedians John Mulaney and Andy Samberg will be filling in as “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” hosts roughly two weeks after he was forced to step away from his duties beginning May 2.

“I’m such a positive person, I tested positive Again,” he tweeted Tuesday. “I am feeling fine — the great John @mulaney & Andy Samberg @thelonelyisland have graciously agreed to host @JimmyKimmelLive for me tomorrow.”

The show host appeared virtually at the 2022 network upfronts, where he made fun of everyone from Netflix (“It feels really good to see them stoop to selling advertisements.”) to Disney.

“Late Night” host Seth Meyers has addressed being called out by Jimmy Kimmel during the “Jimmy Kimmel Live” host’s monologue on Monday night.

As Kimmel returned to his ABC show following a bout with Covid, he used his monologue to name and shame all the people he claims didn’t contact him to send their well-wishes while he was out sick. One of them, Kimmel said, was the NBC star.

“I heard from a lot of my colleagues. I heard from Jimmy Fallon, Jon Stewart, James Corden all checked in. Stephen Colbert sent soup to my house. Seth Meyers, not a peep,” Kimmel claimed about the “Late Night” host, to laughs Monday night. “Nothing from Seth, nothing from George Stephanopoulos.”

But Meyers has since corrected the record. On Tuesday, he retweeted TheWrap’s writeup about Kimmel’s monologue with his response. “Colbert said he was sending the soup from both of us,...

Jimmy Kimmel tackled a wide range of current events during his monologue on Tuesday night’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” including Dr. Mehmet Oz’s run for Senate in Pennsylvania, a topic that has been popular among the late night hosts.

“Meanwhile, Oprah’s former protégé Dr. Oz is running for Senate in Pennsylvania where I guess he lives now. I don’t know,” Kimmel said, after transitioning from a segment mentioning the former daytime queen.

“The primary election is a week from today and Dr. Oz, who’s trying very hard to pretend to be a Maga Republican, wants everyone to know that he has a friend at Mar-a-Lago,” Kimmel continued.

The “Live!” host then cut to a mashup video of Oz touting his Trump endorsement across many, many media appearances.

“Yeah, that’s not something to be proud of, Dr. Oz,” Kimmel quipped.

Kimmel then focused in on some of Dr.

Jimmy Kimmel is taking a break from his late night show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” after Covid diagnosis

“Our daughter brought us covid (even though we specifically asked her not to),” he shared Monday on Twitter. “All feeling fine, I am double vaxxed and boosted but the show must not go on. Apologies to @TomCruise & @iliza and thanks to Mike Birbiglia @birbigs who’ll be filling in for me starting tomorrow night.”

Stand-up comedian Birbiglia addressed his last minute hosting gig in a tweet of his own.

“I must be the first person to ever deplane a Southwest Airlines flight and find out they’re guest-hosting a late night talk show. Sending love to the Kimmels. See you on the TV tomorrow, friends,” Birbiglia tweeted.

Everything Everywhere All at Once describes Michelle Yeoh’s career right now. She is everywhere. As Emperor Philippa Georgiou in Star Trek: Discovery, she boldly went where no one has gone before with a role so scene-stealing that there’s talk of a spin-off dedicated just to her character. Yeoh also dominated as the powerful matriarch and ultimate “tiger mom” Eleanor Young in Crazy Rich Asians. And she’s one of the only actors to play two completely different characters in the MCU: Ying Nan in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Aleta Ogord in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. A24’s multiverse-spanning science fiction film Everything Everywhere All at Once is one more indication that Yeoh isn’t slowing down. Coming soon, she has lead roles in The Witcher: Blood Origin, American Born Chinese, and the four upcoming Avatar sequels.

Most remember Yeoh from her...

Michael Strahan will continue to greet ABC morning viewers as part of a renewed pact that will keep him on “Good Morning America” for the next several years.

Strahan, who was named a “GMA” co-anchor in 2016 and placed alongside Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos, has signed a new four-year deal with ABC News, according to a person familiar with the matter. ABC News declined to make executives available for comment.

He extends his contract at a moment when TV’s a.m. news wars are starting to heat up anew. CBS News has retooled its morning program, enlisting former football player Nate Burleson to anchor “CBS Mornings” with Gayle King and Tony Dokoupil in a new Times Square studio not too far away from the one used by “GMA.” NBC News has been working to make its venerable “Today” available to a wider audience with a new slate of streaming-video...

The late-night world has been speculating for some time as to whether Jimmy Kimmel will continue his ABC talkshow after his contract runs out next year.

The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host discussed his future on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show, but admitted that he doesn’t know whether he will continue after the show’s 20th season.

“I vacillate. I do love being off. I love not working. It’s really so much better than working, and the ideal situation is having people do my job for me while I continue to get paid. But I don’t know. I don’t know. I think I know sometimes, and then when it comes time to make the decision, then I feel like I don’t know. But we’ll see. When I have to make that decision, I will make that decision,” he said.

Fox News’ 11 p.m. Et “Gutfeld!” finally beat every other late-night show — including Stephen Colbert’s “Late Show” on CBS — Tuesday in total viewership and the advertiser-coveted age demographic of 25 to 54. When the right-leaning program debuted in April, host Greg Gutfeld and his promotional team made no secret of their ambition to overtake late-night rivals, but Colbert blocked him from the top spot.

On Tuesday night, “Gutfeld!” took in a total average of 2.120 million viewers, with 434,000 in the key demo, on average. The “Late Show,” which has an 11:35 p.m. Et start time on CBS, grabbed an average of 1.896 million total viewers of whom 423,000 were in the demo. Jimmy Fallon’s “Tonight Show” — an NBC program which also airs at 11:35 — came next with 1.216 million total viewers, on average, and 354,000 in the demo.

In the 18-to-49 demo, however, Colbert still won, averaging 322,000 viewers to Gutfeld’s 281,000 and Fallon’s...

A previously unreleased drum solo featuring Afrobeat legend Tony Allen and Cream’s Ginger Baker has been unearthed for a 50th anniversary reissue of Fela Kuti’s Live!, arriving November 19th via Partisan.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and First Lady Jill Biden made surprise appearances at the Daytime Emmys to laud the late Alex Trebek along with Robin Roberts and Ken Jeong in a moving tribute section at the awards that also included paeans to Regis Philbin and Larry King. Trebek was Canadian. Trudeau praised his social consciousness — recalling the 62 acres of land he donated between Nichols and Runyon canyons in LA, a public area called the Trebek Open Space — — and his “legacy of giving.” “He told me he was proud to be a Canadian. And we told him that we were proud that is he is one of us as well,” Trudeau said. Jill Biden called him “warn and funny” and said she loved how “he brought our families together every evening, racking our brains to keep up with the smartest contestants. Thank you Alex. We miss you.” The 48th annual...

Pablo Picasso was apparently supposed to have said “good artists copy, great artists steal”. In the world of transnational cinema this is especially true when we see re-imaginings (to use the modern parlance) of particular films. With Luc Besson’s “La Femme Nikita”, the original “inspired” an incredibly dull American remake, TV series and inevitably an unofficial Hong Kong take from D&b Films. It would be hard pressed to argue that they were great artists and Stephen Shin would hardly be considered a visual stylist as Luc Besson in his prime. Yet this is more than just a facsimile copy and does have merit in it’s own right.

Ewan McGregor says a story Noel Gallagher previously shared about the two having a lightsaber fight after the Star Wars actor was cast in the franchise more than 20 years ago is pretty accurate.

McGregor dropped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday to talk about his current projects, which included the highly-anticipated Obi-Wan Kenobi series on Disney+.

After dropping tiny tidbits about production, the actor was asked by Kimmel about a claim the eccentric Gallagher made, in which Gallagher said he actually gave McGregor lightsaber lessons.

“Well, it was Noel Gallagher’s 30th birthday party and he lived quite close to me in London,...

When it comes to getting hand-me-downs or even "Ben-me-downs" from friend Andy Cohen's son, host Anderson Cooper jokingly revealed that they may not exactly be his son's style. During an appearance on an April 21 episode of Live! with Kelly and Ryan, the CNN news anchor chatted about his son, 11-month-old Wyatt, and Cohen's son, Benjiman, 2, easily becoming the best of friends. However, there's one thing they don't share: sense of style. The two television hosts also enjoy a close friendship, and had their sons just over a year apart. Andy welcomed his son, Ben, on February 4, 2019 via surrogate and Anderson welcomed son Wyatt on April 27, 2020, also via surrogate. Because they're so...

On Wednesday, Jimmy Kimmel returned for a Live! broadcast, after a full week of vacation.

“I have to be honest, I’m glad to be back. We went on a cruise through the Suez Canal,” Kimmel joked. “You ever done that? Very slow. It’s almost as if we weren’t moving at all.”

Kimmel was alluding to a fiasco in Egypt from the last week, which saw the Suez Canal blocked for six days by a container ship named the Ever-Given.

“I have to say,” he remarked, “after all the fighting and the tooth-gnashing over the past few years, it was nice to see the whole world come together to make fun of a boat.”

As you may or may not have learned in school, the canal is one of the “main arteries for ships carrying goods around the globe,” Kimmel said—and with it blocked by the ship,...

Update, 5:47 Am Pt: Good Morning America‘s George Stephanopoulos told viewers that Michael Strahan, who recently tested positive for Covid-19, is “feeling well and looking forward to being back here shortly.”

Stephanopoulos said that he and others on GMA had been cleared to work at the studio after contact tracing and following CDC guidelines.

Co-host Robin Roberts said that Strahan “wanted us to let you know that he has tested positive for Covid. He is at home quarantining.”

Stephanopoulos tested positive for Covid in April but said back then that he was not experiencing symptoms. He had been caring for his wife, Ali Wentworth, who had tested positive and appeared on GMA to talk about the effects of the virus.

Apple TV+ is nearing a series order for In With the Devil, a six-hour adaptation of a true crime memoir by James Keene that has Taron Egerton set to star as the author and Richard Jewell‘s Paul Walter Hauser in talks to join him as a suspected serial killer. Michael R. Roskam will direct a script by Dennis Lehane. It will shoot in New Orleans.

Keene was a young Chicago kid who was a standout football player headed for a pro career when a few turns in the wrong direction caught him a decade-long prison sentence with no chance of parole. The son of a Chicago cop was offered by the prosecutor who put him behind bars the chance to be sprung from prison and a chance to redeem himself. The stakes were high. Same prosecutor convicted a man named Larry Hall for abducting and killing a 15-year-old, just...

"This is the best costume for the day," the Live! star captioned the post, "because glitter doesn't rhyme with Instagram #dressingroom #greygardens." Needless to say, fans and celebrity friends alike got a kick out of the top. Mariah Carey commented, "I'm gonna need this shirt." Bethenny Frankel gushed, "Omg Yes can I...

Jimmy Kimmel enjoyed his “first full day of Trumplessness” by dubbing Joe Biden “the Frasier of presidencies.” In a good way.

“Joe Biden was one of the most beloved supporting characters of the Obama Administration,” Kimmel joked on last night’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, “and now he’s got his own show. Basically this is the Frasier of presidencies.” The “spin-off presidency,” Kimmel said, feels familiar, calming and warm.

Other reasons to celebrate, said Kimmel: The Pentagon has put the real nuclear codes back in the football, Dr. Fauci “seemed happy to be out of captivity,” and the prophecies of QAnon came to naught. Kimmel showed a selection of social media messages from disappointed conspiracy mongers: “Well, I’m the official laughing stock of my family now.”

Barack Obama, promoting his new memoir Promised Land on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, addressed the current situation with his successor, Donald Trump, who so far has refused to recognize Joe Biden as the president-elect.

The 44th president primarily treated Trump’s intransigence lightly, quipping to Kimmel that “there seems to be some lag — the communications system [at the White House] used to be better.”

Kimmel asked Obama if there were “places where people could hide” in the White House, like some cubby hole, suggesting that Trump would try to do that come January 20.

“I think we can always send the Navy SEALs in there to dig him out,” Obama joked.

It is not entirely far-fetched. Trump ceases to be president at noon on January 20, and technically would be trespassing if he remains in the Oval Office.

Kimmel also asked Obama about Trump’s retweet of a QAnon conspiracy theory that Osama bin Laden is still alive.

Michael Keaton hasn’t donned the cape and cowl for 28 years, but he’s about to once again in the upcoming Flash movie. DC has big plans for this one, too, with Ezra Miller’s Scarlet Speedster set to tear through the multiverse in his initial solo outing.

The first big returning name attached to the project was Keaton, who was announced to be involved in the summer. And for the first time since then, the star has now addressed his comeback. While speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the host pressed Keaton on whether he could officially confirm that he was returning as Batman. As a superhero movie vet by now, the Spider-Man: Homecoming actor knew better than to let anything slip, so he kept his response brief.

“I can’t confirm anything,” Keaton replied when asked. He then had a bit of fun back-and-forth with Kimmel, asking if the...

I was raised on Barbra Streisand. My mother adored her. She owned The Way We Were and Yentl on VHS. She vacuumed to the “Guilty” album.

Snap will try to turn Snapchat viewers into buyers with its first-ever “shoppable” original show: “The Drop,” focused on “exclusive streetwear collabs” from celebrities and designers.

The company — in its debut Digital Content NewFronts presentation for Madison Avenue types — also announced the renewal of “Driven,” an original series about custom cars, for Season 2; and a new Verizon-sponsored show, “Fake Up,” in which makeup artists compete in creating eye-popping optical illusions.

Snap’s NewFronts session marks the public debut for Peter Naylor as VP of sales for the Americas, two months after he exited Hulu after more than six years.

“When I was at Hulu, I was always looking at Snap out of the corner of my eye,” Naylor said in an interview, adding that he has two Gen Z daughters who are big Snapchat users. “I’m a selfish sales guy: I want to bring a beautiful product to market.

Ever since first gaining mainstream attention thanks to a breakout role in Christopher Nolan’s Inception, Tom Hardy has gone on to establish himself as one of the most reliable actors in the business, known for dedicating himself entirely to his roles and rarely giving a bad performance.

Kimmel was joking about the title of Ford's new film, Call of the Wild, and held up a faux Hollywood Reporter magazine with a number of quotes from Trump about the film being the "best call ever," which the president has said repeatedly about the infamous Ukraine call that led to his impeachment. He was subsequently acquitted by the Senate.
