Movie Reviews and Previews T’Challa power naps Chadwick Boseman rolled up to the Infinity War premiere as the reigning Marvel champ. Not only is Black Panther one of the biggest movies in history, but it’s also a landmark in so many ways, the most recent of which is being the film to end the 35 year By Sarah • Apr 24, 2018 09:44 am
Maple Leaf Intro for April 24, 2018 Dear Gossips, The Warner Bros presentation at CinemaCon is scheduled for today. And I’m hoping that that’s why the Crazy Rich Asians trailer was released yesterday – because the studio is, presumably, beginning to build the hype around the movie in front of theatre owners ahead of its August By Lainey • Apr 24, 2018 09:21 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Crazy Rich Asians promises lavish romantic drama The trailer for Crazy Rich Asians has FINALLY dropped and OH MY GOD, how much have we missed movies like this? Romantic, funny, SOAPY DRAMA, lavish settings, cars, clothes. I feel like movies like this died with the recession a decade ago, and we’re only just coming back to By Sarah • Apr 23, 2018 01:33 pm
Style Avengers Family Feud The world premiere of Avengers: Infinity War is happening tonight in Hollywood where most, if not all, the Avengers will assemble on the red carpet ahead of opening weekend.

Movie Reviews and Previews Taron Egerton is Elton John Elton John is finally getting the biopic treatment, and as a sign of some goodness remaining in the universe, Justin Timberlake is not going to portray him. The movie is called Rocket Man (for now), and it will star charm machine Taron Egerton as Elton John. The project originally centered By Sarah • Apr 20, 2018 03:15 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jon Hamm in Beirut Beirut is a period piece political thriller that doesn’t need to be period and is weirdly unconcerned with how its politics read in 2018. With a script by Tony Gilroy (of the Bourne franchise, Rogue One’s infamous reshoots, and, most importantly, THE CUTTING EDGE), and directed by Brad By Sarah • Apr 20, 2018 12:21 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Chris Evans picks up the slack Chris Evans is currently on Broadway, which means he is excused from most of the Avengers: Infinity War press. (He is expected at the premiere on Monday, which means he will still be rocking That Mustache. He’s going to look like that at the Avengers premiere.) But! A Marvel By Sarah • Apr 20, 2018 10:27 am

Girlcrushes Letitia Wright: Infinity War’s MVP If anyone was going to make me cry before 10am this morning, it was going to be Letitia Wright. Letitia Wright makes me emotional all the time. She had me the most in my feelings the first time I saw Black Panther. I teared up reading Lainey’s post yesterday By Kathleen • Apr 19, 2018 01:50 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Deadpool’s final pitch We’re getting into the final round of trailers for the first batch of summer movies—while STILL waiting on the first trailer for Crazy Rich Asians—and following Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’s final trailer is Deadpool 2’s final trailer. I’ll tell you what, I LOVE that By Sarah • Apr 19, 2018 11:52 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Angelina’s new villain It was announced yesterday that Ed Skrein has been cast in the Maleficent sequel, playing the villain opposite Angelina Jolie. Villainy is Ed Skrein’s thing – he’s been a villain in his last several projects. But he’s also been working on the film adaptation of James Baldwin’s By Lainey • Apr 18, 2018 03:49 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom looks RIDICULOUS I have not been impressed by the trailers for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom thus far, but this new—final—trailer is SO F*CKING RIDICULOUS that I am now kinda feeling this movie. It just looks so dumb. SO DUMB. Exactly how dumb does it look? Does it look “bad By Sarah • Apr 18, 2018 03:32 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Welcome to the Hotel Artemis Jodie Foster’s new movie is a straight-up John Wick knock-off, and I do not care, it looks super fun. It’s called Hotel Artemis, and except for the near-future, vaguely dystopian setting, it might as well be called Hotel Continental. The Hotel Artemis runs on rules suspiciously similar to By Sarah • Apr 18, 2018 12:51 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Shuri in New York If you’ve been visiting this site a while, you’re familiar with the fact that I’m super into the Avengers. I’ve seen the first Avengers movie probably over 50 times now. As I’ve said multiple times before, whenever it’s on TV, it’s the only By Lainey • Apr 18, 2018 12:12 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Spielberg + DC = False Advertising Yesterday afternoon a flashy headline blared across the internet: STEVEN SPIELBERG DIRECTING SUPERHERO MOVIE! Nerds everywhere sh*t their pants. The thing is, it’s a little misleading. Technically, yes, Spielberg is developing a movie based on a comic book for DC Films. But he’s not making a movie By Sarah • Apr 18, 2018 11:20 am
Movie Reviews and Previews One of these Harley Quinn movies might actually happen Suicide Squad was a mess, but one of the bright spots was Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, and Robbie, who has rapidly turned into a power producer, has been pitching various Harley spin-offs ever since. One of those pitches is the “Untitled Girl Gang” movie, which has advanced to the By Sarah • Apr 17, 2018 03:00 pm
