Bohemian Rhapsody has lost its best film nomination at the 2019 GLAAD Media Awards, following the latest sexual misconduct allegations against director Bryan Singer. The film, which is a biopic about the band Queen and lead singer Freddie Mercury, began production under Singer’s direction back in 2017. However, part-way through shooting, Singer was fired following an unexplained absence - which he later claimed was to care for a sick parent - and for clashing with the movie’s cast and crew....

Bumblebee had to pass on a pitched scene that would have involved a G1 (Generation 1) version of Megatron. Bumblebee is the newest Transformers film that stands as the franchise’s first spinoff, and a prequel to the series that started in 2007 with Shia Labeouf. Bumblebee is also the first film in the series that doesn’t include Michael Bay as the director. While previous Transformers movies have mainly relied on action sequences and big-budget special effects, Bumblebee is said to be focusing more on bringing humor and heart to the Transformers franchise....

While actors like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone are regraded as some of the best action stars of all time, in recent years one of the most reliable action movie icons has been Charlize Theron. Given some of her dramatic and award-winning performances, Theron might seem like an unusual action hero, but she has proven many times that she can play the onscreen badass as well as being a great actor....

While in Oaxaca for the home video release of Disney and Pixar’s 19th film, Coco, Screen Rant spoke with the animation Manager, Jesus Martinez, about his experience working on the film, with the animators, and his experience with Dia de Los Muertos. Screen Rant: Hey guys, Joe with Screen Rant and I’m with Jesus, the animation manager, what can you tell me exactly an animation manager does?

For some weird reason, there are still some native iOS apps missing on the iPad – like the Calculator and the Weather apps. While there are no hints that the iPad will finally get a Weather app this year with the upcoming iPadOS 16, this new concept shows exactly how the app should look on the big screen. That’s why Weigelt came up with this concept, which is largely based on what the Weather app currently offers on the iPhone....

Darren Aronofsky says that his Batman movie would’ve been much grittier than Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy. According to Aronofsky, before the release of Batman Begins, he and Frank Miller, the author behind the Batman comic Year One, had collaborated on a couple of scripts. While they never came to fruition, Aronofsky has not forgotten the missed opportunity as well as the differences between what was and what could have been....

Warning: SPOILERS for Darth Vader Annual #2 Darth Vader and the Death Star are two of the biggest symbols of the Empire in Star Wars. However, Darth Vader Annual #2 has revealed that the Dark Lord of the Sith was actually jealous of the Empire’s fully armed and fully operational battle system.

The future of DC movies will be director-driven instead of attempting to copy the Marvel Cinematic Universe and shared universes. Warner Bros. put a larger focus on DC films as a result of Marvel Studios’ success and at one point believed Zack Snyder was their guy to create a shared universe, even after Man of Steel divided audiences. Getting their cinematic universe going has not been easy, though. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad performed well financially, despite negative reviews, while Wonder Woman became the bright spot in 2017 with its critical and financial success....

Netflix is developing a sequel to its live-action Death Note anime/manga film adaptation. The first Death Note movie was directed by horror filmmaker Adam Wingard (of You’re Next and The Guest fame) and premiered on the streaming service almost exactly a year ago, in late August 2017. Wingard’s Death Note carries over the basic premise of Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata’s original manga series (in short: boy genius finds notebook that kills anyone whose name is written in it, uses it to murder criminals and those he deems “evil”), but otherwise Americanizes its characters and setting....

After a flurry of development around 2015, Apple scaled back the project in 2017 to focus on the underlying autonomous driving technology....

Disney CEO Bob Iger has stated he doubts the multi-billion dollar company will continue filming in Georgia if the state’s new abortion law takes effect. Over the past decade or so, Georgia’s reputation as a filmmaking state has grown considerably thanks to a tax break incentive for productions filming in-state. In fact, according to the Los Angeles film office, more movies were made in the Peach State in 2016 than in California....

Though this summer had a couple of massive box office hits like Captain America: Civil War, Finding Dory, and Suicide Squad, the high-profile disappointments of the season generated more attention as people tried to figure out why several would-be tentpoles failed to make an impact. The fall has essentially been more of the same, with Clint Eastwood’s biopic Sully the only release since the beginning of September to gross $100+ million domestically....

Brooklyn Nine-Nine hit a two-year ratings high in its NBC debut this week. The acclaimed comedy series follows the misadventures of NYPD detectives in Brooklyn’s 99th precinct, with characters ranging from Andy Samberg’s Jake Peralta - a talented but immature detective - to the precinct’s generally poe-faced Captain Raymond Holt (played by Andre Braugher). Long celebrated for its good-natured humor and inclusive casting, the sitcom ran on FOX for five seasons before it was canceled last year, in the face of steady but low ratings....

Former A-list actress Cameron Diaz hasn’t made a new movie in years, and fellow actress Selma Blair offers a reason why: Diaz quietly retired. Making her film debut in 1994 Jim Carrey vehicle The Mask, it didn’t take long for Diaz - then a model - to garner major attention from both Hollywood at large and the public in general. While Diaz’s role of lounge singer - and love interest to lead character Stanley Ipkiss - Tina Carlyle did obviously focus a lot on her looks, Diaz’s aptitude for comedy also quickly became apparent, with her playing well off established comedic force Carrey....

[This article contains potential SPOILERS for Captain America: Civil War] - Since the onset of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (or MCU), debate has raged over whether the TV and film universes would ever collide. Unlike the DCEU, Marvel acknowledges a connection between its two screens – although a disconnect seems to be growing between the two realms. However, as Captain America: Civil War heads to the big screen next month and Luke Cage is scheduled to join the Defenders TV show lineup this year, is it possible that aspects of these two might overlap?...
