Bill Skarsgård has continued his Rotten Tomatoes hot streak with his latest thriller. The actor, who is the son of Mamma Mia! and Thor star Stellan Skarsgård and the brother of True Blood and Big Little Lies' Alexander Skarsgård, had his breakout role when he played Pennywise in 2017's It and its 2019 sequel It: Chapter Two. Since then, he has taken on a number of roles in prominent projects including playing Zeitgeist in Deadpool 2, Kro in Eternals, and Marquis Vincent de Gramont in John Wick: Chapter 4.

Recent Bill Skarsgård movies have had a scattershot response from critics. While the twisty horror-thriller Barbarian (92%) and the action sequel John Wick: Chapter 4 (94%) earned him two Certified Fresh Rotten Tomatoes scores in a row in 2022 and 2023 respectively, he followed that by starring in a pair of 2024 action movies that earned splats, namely Boy Kills World (58%) and The Crow (21%). However, he closed out...

Bill Skarsgård is proving to have the most varied and interesting career of the talented Skarsgård clan. Son of Stellan Skarsgård (Dune: Part Two) and brother of Alexander (The Northman) and Gustaf (Vikings) Skarsgård, Bill has continuously chosen projects that showcase his range and abilities. In Locked he takes on the difficult task of carrying an entire narrative with nothing to work against except the imposing voice of Anthony Hopkins. It’s an imposing challenge that Skarsgård concurs with ease, giving the greatest performance of his career.

“Andor” creator Tony Gilroy recently told Collider that he will not be making any of the scripts for the “Star Wars” series public out of fear they will be used to train artificial intelligence systems. Gilroy had been planning to release the scripts for the show’s first season in a book format that fans could purchase, similar to shows such as HBO’s “Succession.” However, the rise of AI effectively killed that plan.

“I wanted to do it,” Gilroy said about releasing the scripts. “We put it together. It’s really cool. I’ve seen it, I loved it. AI is the reason we’re not. In the end, it would be 1,500 pages that came directly off this desk. I mean, terribly sadly, it’s just too much of an X-ray and too easily absorbed. Why help the fucking robots anymore than you can? So, it was an ego thing.

Amanda Seyfried is “100 per cent optimistic” a third ‘Mamma Mia!’ movie will get made.The 39-year-old actress starred in the Abba jukebox musical film in 2008 and its sequel ‘Mamma Mia!

It’s time to look at the work of one of the greatest directors of our generation: Christopher Nolan. How big is Nolan these days? Interstellar, a movie which was never among the director’s top grossers, hit IMAX screens last week for its tenth anniversary, and screenings have been selling out constantly. The fact is – Nolan makes movies that belong on the big-screen, and he’s one of the few directors who’s arguably become his own franchise. For proof of that, one need only look at the fact that he’s planning a new movie, and the cast is jampacked with A-listers, because Everyone wants to work with Nolan.

A caveat – our Christopher Nolan movies ranked list is just one person’s opinion, and his work is divisive. Everyone has their favourites (and least favourites), so I’m hoping this ranking will open up some discussion in the comments below.

The hype surrounding Mike Flanagan’s upcoming Exorcist project gets more intense as days roll by, but there are also so many thoughts about the previous installments that heavily bombed at the box office. It took many years in between before the franchise produced follow-ups, simply because it wasn’t meant to be a cinematic universe.

What’s more upsetting is the fact that Guillermo del Toro almost helmed the unfortunate 2005 prequel movie, Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist, which already leaves us fans thinking he could have singlehandedly saved it. The project eventually went to Paul Schrader.

What’s going to be this year’s “Anora”? As the Cannes Film Festival rapidly approaches, that’s the question for artistic director Thierry Fremaux and movie buffs around the world.

A month before Cannes Film Festival’s press conference, the official selection is still very much a work in progress, with little reliable information filtering through about which movies have already been invited. In fact, as of Friday — despite the volume of splashy prediction stories — it appears that only three films have so far been given a golden ticket to compete in Cannes. Variety can reveal that one of them is Jim Jarmusch’s anticipated “Father Mother Sister Brother“ starring Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver and Tom Waits.

The last edition of the festival, which Fremaux had warned would be slightly weaker due to the impact of the double Hollywood strikes, proved to be anything but. Headlined by Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or-winning “Anora,...

No one can question director Denis Villeneuve's love for Dune. His relationship with Frank Herbert's saga of sandworms and messiahs began at age 13 and has culminated in arguably the best sci-fi adaptation of all time: Dune: Part Two. But even a Dune lover like Villeneuve got one thing wrong while making the film: it resulted in a fight (of sorts) with a cast member, ultimately giving the film its only curse word. Let me explain!

Halfway through Dune: Part Two, we learn that Atreides family war master Gurney Halleck (Josh Brolin) survived the Harkonnen attack from the previous film. The troubadour warrior becomes a spice smuggler following the catastrophe. In a tense moment, right before he reunites with Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), Gurney sees a spice-harvester blow up in the sky and mouths the film's only swear word "Oh F**k."

The Star Wars universe received one of its most unique additions with the Tony Gilroy-created Andor. The series follows Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor, a thief who becomes an important Rebel spy. While the titular character is the show’s primary focus, Gilroy impressed viewers with a compelling cast of supporting characters.

Despite the series having no shortage of morally complex characters, one of its most popular figures is Deputy Inspector Syril Karn. In an interview, Gilroy discussed the creation of Karn and what makes the character so compelling. At the same time, the showrunner shed light on how he writes and develops characters, which is truly a masterclass. Here is what Gilroy had to say about creating Andor‘s characters.

The last couple of years have changed the entertainment business completely as TV shows now compete with movies for popularity and numbers. New content options from streaming platforms have now allowed many types of stories that film technicalities restricted in the past.

New opportunities for actors opened thanks to these changes. The evolution of TV consumption has led many Hollywood celebrities from A-list status to choose TV series. Modern industry’s perception of TV shows has shifted because many actors and creators now consider this medium a career-forward development beyond movies.

While Andor gave Tony Gilroy free reign to explore the Rebel Alliance's origins, he will ensure the final season adheres to key moments in Star Wars history.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Gilroy talked about what lies in store for Andor's sprawling cast and how the lead-up to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will chart their growth over four years of Rebel and Imperial conflict. Regarding Mon Mothma's transition from Imperial Senate opposition to future leader of the Rebellion, he acknowledged, "Canonically, there's the moment where she leaves the Senate, and that's in our timeline. So we're definitely dealing with that, but I would say, of all the characters in the show, of all the hellacious things that people go through, and all of the difficulties and hardships, I don't think anybody has a harder road than she does. Because she has to do everything that everybody else does with all the tension,...

The first season of Star Wars: Andor traced the development of lead character Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) from a loner mercenary to a dedicated freedom fighter willing to join the rebellion against the Empire. By the time of the movie Rogue One, he's one of the rebellion's star players. The second and final season of Andor will show us how he gets to that point.

"When we meet him, it's a year later, and he's all in," Andor showrunner Tony Gilroy told Entertainment Weekly. "Luthen is a really great talent scout, a great agent and teacher as well. Cassian's utility, how far can he go? We know how far he's going to go in Rogue. By the time he gets to Rogue he can do anything. He's a master. So, there'll be espionage. There'll be leadership. There'll be all kinds of new educational tests for him along the way,...

One of the best Star Wars TV series thus far is nearly ready to debut its second (and last) season.

The first season of “Andor” showed viewers a side of the Star Wars galaxy that has mostly gone unseen until now. The series portrayed the Empire as the terrifying and oppressive regime it was always said to be, and examined the Rebellion from a more nuanced perspective than simply good versus evil. Now, “Andor” Season 2 is close to its premiere, and we’ll let you know all the information you need to have ready to hand before it’s released!

If no one has told you to watch "Andor" yet, then let me be the first (and certainly the loudest). Despite earning rave reviews during its first season and quickly establishing itself as the greatest "Star Wars" TV series to date, the sci-fi spy thriller and "Rogue One" prequel has flown a bit under the radar for more casual fans. Thankfully, it's now easier to watch than ever before.

In a bid to get more eyes on the series leading up to its season 2 premiere on April 22, 2025, Disney just put the first three episodes of season 1 up on YouTube for free.

In addition, the entirety of season 1 is now streaming on Hulu, opening it up to a much wider audience that might have that streamer but not a Disney+ subscription. (Hulu will continue to...

Disney is ramping up the promotion for Andor Season 2's release on April 22, including giving fans a chance to see it for the first time on a streaming service other than Disney+.

Per What's on Disney Plus, Andor Season 1 is now available to stream on Hulu, and the first three episodes are also available on the Disney+ YouTube channel in their entirety. This is only for a limited time, however, and will end on April 22, the same day the first three episodes of Season 2 premiere on Disney+.

The Lucasfilm series received a cross-platform push during its first season, too. The first two episodes of Season 1 ran on ABC, FX, Freeform and Hulu over the 2022 Thanksgiving holiday, coinciding with the season finale on Disney+.

The second season of the Emmy-nominated Andor takes place as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian (Diego Luna) becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.

The final season consists of 12 episodes broken down into four chapters of three episodes each.

“Oppression breeds rebellion,” says a character in Andor. So Disney+ and Lucasfilm are widely making the debut season of its acclaimed Star Wars drama more widely — and freely — available ahead of the highly anticipated release of season two.

Tensions are rising in the Andor Season 2 sneak peek, befitting the upcoming episodes acting as the final stop on the road to Rogue One. The new footage spotlights the escalating conflict between the Empire and disparate resistance forces. The separate, uncoordinated resurgence paints a picture of burgeoning opposition that will inevitably evolve into the Rebellion, and the preview's closed captioning may have revealed what event will force the retaliatory cells to combine.

The new, special look at the series offers a glimpse at the season, “in which the characters and their relationships will intensify as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.”

Season two, which will be it’s final, will consist of 12 episodes total, broken down through four chapters of three episodes each.

Andor stars Diego Luna, Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, Alan Tudyk, Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker.

Andor Season 2 is only a few months away, so marketing has kicked into gear for the highly anticipated continuation. The series' first season, which premiered in 2022, was created by Tony Gilroy and recounts the life of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) leading up to the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The 12-episode first season would set a new standard for episodic storytelling in the Star Wars universe, posing complex and morally ambiguous questions about the origins of the rebellion and making the galaxy far, far, away feel more lived-in than ever before. Now, an extended look at Andor Season 2 seems to suggest the level of quality in storytelling hasn't changed at all.

The video, which can be viewed below, is a featurette showcasing exciting new scenes from the show. It also features the cast and creators, who discuss the effort that went into making the second (and final) season of Andor.

Take a look at more footage from Season 2 of the live-action “Star Wars” spin-off “Andor”, directed by Toby Haynes, starring Diego Luna as ‘Cassian Andor’ and Forest Whitaker as ‘Saw Gerrera’ , with Denise Gough, Stellan Skarsgård, Kyle Soller and Adria Arjona, streaming April 22, 2025 on Disney+:

“…set five years before the events of ‘Rogue One’, the series follows the adventures of the spy during the formative years of the ‘Rebellion’.

“It explores tales of espionage and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy, in the grip of a ruthless ‘Empire’…”

Disney+ takes Andor fans behind the scenes with a two-minute video featuring the cast and Tony Gilroy. “Revolutionary movements are spontaneously happening all over the galaxy. How those come together is the stuff of our story,” explains creator, writer, and executive producer Tony Gilroy in the video. Gilroy adds, “These 12 episodes are gonna take us over the next four years into Rogue One. The complexity of the show, the possibilities of the show – it has to be all in.”

“If season one laid the track, then season two is the juggernaut,” says Genevieve O’Reilly, who plays Mon Mothma, highlighting the impressive scale of the production.

Diego Luna leads the cast as Cassian Andor. Season two also stars Stellan Skarsgård, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, Alan Tudyk, Ben Mendelsohn, and Forest Whitaker.

The second-and final-season premieres on April 22, 2025 with the release of the first three episodes.

The road to rebellion begins on April 22.

Following the recent first trailer, Disney+ has shared a "Special Look" at the second season of Andor, and the promo includes quite a bit of new footage.

In addition to behind-the-scenes interviews with members of the cast and creator/writer Tony Gilroy, the video strongly hints that an incident that occurred during the events of Star Wars Rebels will be depicted.

Possible spoilers ahead.

The Ghorman Massacre took place in 2 Bby, and saw Imperial Stormtroopers slaughter peaceful protesters on the planet Ghorman. Senator Mon Mothma publicly blamed Emperor Palpatine for the attacks, which resulted in the Empire attempting to apprehend her.

Though it's too early to tell for sure, it seems this tragic event might be the catalyst for thousands throughout the galaxy rising up against the Empire and joining the Rebellion.

Fans of the galaxy far, far away have plenty to be excited about, as the behind-the-scenes glimpse of the upcoming season teases plenty of action and adventure, familiar worlds, and a major event from the Star Wars Expanded Universe.

As reported by Star Wars News Net, the video, which has already made its way online via X/Twitter (as seen below), packs a lot into its less than three-minute runtime. One clip that is sure to raise a few eyebrows is that of a crowd of protestors, who, according to closed captioning, are "singing in Ghor." This brief tease seems to suggest that Andor Season 2 will cover the events of the infamous Ghorman Massacre.

Denis Villenueve inarguably accomplished an impressive feat with his first two "Dune" movies. Finally giving Frank Herbert's supposedly "unfilmable" 1965 novel a worthy big screen adaptation, the French Canadian filmmaker somehow managed to craft his own unique vision while staying true to the author's original story.

Villeneueve was clearly loyal to Herbert's writing but wasn't so precious about it that his movies didn't make changes to the novel. In places, the director and his team were able to make their own creative decisions, such as when production designer Patrice Vermette based the look of the Emperor Shaddam's tent on a Rolex watch. Elsewhere, cinematographer Greig Fraser shot the exterior of the Harkonnen home planet Giedi Prime with infrared cameras to produce a monochrome image that reflected the black sun-drenched surface of the world. These were all creative decisions the team had to make in order to bring Herbert's words to life in a visual medium.

Years before his critically acclaimed role in FX's Shogun, Hiroyuki Sanada starred in the 2013 war film, The Railway Man. It will be streaming on Prime Video starting March 13.

The rest of The Railway Man's cast included Colin Firth, Nicole Kidman, Jeremy Irvine and Stellan Skarsgård. Firth stars as Eric Lomax, a former British army officer and prisoner of war, who discovers that the Japanese interpreter who tortured him during World War II is actually still alive. Lomax and his wife, Patricia (Kidman), travel to Thailand to confront the man (Sanada). The Railway Man was an adaptation of Lomax's 1995 autobiography of the same name.

From The Shining to It's a Wonderful Life, many of the most influential films in history were savaged by critics upon their release. These films prove that bad reviews alone don't mean a movie is destined for doom. In fact, sometimes critics can entirely miss the point of a film or overlook its most charming aspects.

In the early 2000s, franchise films had yet to establish their stranglehold on Hollywood, and theaters were filled with countless original and unusual movies. Whether it was rom-coms or action blockbusters, the aughts had a fun and light style that was often overlooked by the critics. And many films that were not exactly Oscar-worthy, nonetheless helped define the era, being fondly remembered by their fans decades later.

Dune: Part Two earned widespread acclaim in 2024, praised for its massive scope, set pieces, and political intrigue. The sequel completes director Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Frank Herbert's first Dune novel, effectively adapting the back half of the book. If the 2021 film didn't do so already, this sequel establishes the series as a cinematic franchise that is not to be missed. With the new Dune movies introducing the sci-fi epic to a new generation of fans, audiences are bound to have questions about the most recent film—especially with Villeneuve's adaptation of Dune Messiah on the way.

With the IP's newfound franchise status, the world of Herbert's Dune has also expanded into TV.

A good season of television should have a great finale, but for that finale to really pack a punch, the episode preceding it needs to put the right pieces in place and set the stage for whatever twists, turns, or resolution is about to transpire. Star Wars series are no exception. Let's dive into how well the penultimate episodes set the table for the ultimate finale feast.

Here are the 9 penultimate episodes of live-action Star Wars television ranked in how they set up their finale.

While the second season of The Mandalorian has one of the greatest finales in all of Star Wars, its penultimate episode has the least impactful set-up for the season finale of all of the series in this list.

There is absolutely a subtle art to adapting material and not every storyteller is skilled enough to handle it. It's actually no surprise that so many book adaptations fail to meet audience expectations and only a small handful are considered worthy. Even when some filmmakers do a good job at adapting material, there are still people who fall on the other side of the line and criticize the films. Denis Villeneuve is one of those rare filmmakers who has a way with adaptations. He is able to uphold the value of the original and bring something new to the material in order to heighten the quality of his films. His Dune films have been mostly received positively and have not been getting much pushback from fans of the books.

However, there are still plenty of fans who haven't cared for the new Dune films and even prefer the 1984 film by David Lynch.

Adapting Frank Herbert's 1965 novel "Dune" has proven a tad tricky ever since David Lynch gave it his best shot in 1984. Despite the fact that Lynch's film has gained its admirers in the years since, there are all sort of things wrong with the 1984 "Dune," and they didn't improve all that much with the TV adaptations that came in its wake. Though the Sci-Fi channel (now SyFy) versions weren't without their charms, it was until Denis Villeneuve took on Herbert's sci-fi epic that it truly got the adaptation it deserved.

For the most part, Villeneuve accomplished the seemingly impossible by staying faithful to Herbert's original vision where possible, somehow managing to infuse the film with his own sharp sci-fi instincts and sensibility. That said, certain elements of 2021's "Dune" and 2024's "Dune: Part Two" strayed from the original novel in notable ways. For instance, the Lady Jessica of Villeneuve's movies,...

Also in trailers – “Did anything unusual happen?” Full trailer unvieled for Netflix series ‘The Residence’

The twelve-episode season debuts on Disney+ on April 22nd with three episodes dropping every week.

The first trailer for Andor season 2 promises the revolution is upon us in the Star Wars series!

Star Wars fans can be divisive, and many agreements and disagreements can be big. They can debate the merits of the movies, the sequels, and the franchise's direction.

But one thing almost all Star Wars fans can agree on? That Andor is easily the best part of the franchise since Disney purchased it in 2012. The series is a prologue to 2016's Rogue One, with Diego Luna reprising his role as Cassian Andor, who grows from a refugee to a member of the Rebel Alliance. 

The show packs in the usual Star Wars action and themes. But what draws viewers in is the incredibly in-depth writing, character work, and political drama. It's watching the Rebellion slowly grow with Mon Mothma (Genevieve O'Reilly), secretly working to get funds to start the Rebellion with Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgard). 

Even better,...

IndieWire invited the cinematographers from the Oscar-nominated films to choose and analyze a pivotal scene that best showcases their craft. Here are the four who were able to participate: Lol Crawley (“The Brutalist”), Greig Fraser (“Dune: Part Two”), Paul Guilhaume (“Emilia Pérez”), and Ed Lachman (“Maria”).

For Brady Corbet’s “The Brutalist,” Crawley resurrected VistaVision, the higher resolution, wide-screen variant of 35mm popularized in the ’50s (“Vertigo”). The strategy worked visually and thematically for a maximalist approach to this post-war immigrant drama about Holocaust survivor and visionary architect László Tóth (Best Actor nominee Adrien Brody). It brilliantly showed off the Brutalist style of Tóth’s work as an expression of his post-war trauma, with its massive blocks of concrete and steel. Additionally, the format provided a wider field of view of the compositions.

“We’re in a war. Do you want to fight, or do you want to win?” The words spoken by Diego Luna seem to be the theme in the newly released Andor Season Two trailer. In it, Luna’s Cassian Andor fires off missiles, triggers explosives, and dodges incoming gunfire. In the second installment, Luna’s Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance.

As Star Wars fans know, Andor serves as a prequel to 2016’s Rogue One, which followed the heroic rebel troupe who stole plans for the Death Star,...

“Star Wars” fans need this. So badly.

Though “Skeleton Crew” was warmly received by much of the fanbase, there hasn’t been an all-out rousing success for the galaxy far, far away franchise on Disney+ since the first season of “Andor” in 2022.

Now the “Andor” Season 2 trailer is here, showing us the most extensive look yet at the new episodes, the first three of which drops April 22 on Disney+.

This writer says “Yippee!” like Anakin Skywalker, because is there ever a lot of goodness here. First and foremost: A ton of connections to 2016’s “Rogue One: A Star Wars” story, which introduced Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor character. There’s Forest Whitaker as partisan leader Saw Gerrera, Ben Mendelsohn as Death Star project mastermind Orson Krennic, and Alan Tudyk’s beloved droid, K-2So.

If this looks a lot like “Rogue One,” it’s because “Andor” Season 2 will use its...

The live-action “Star Wars” spin-off “Andor’ Season 2, directed by Toby Haynes, stars Diego Luna as ‘Cassian Andor’ and Forest Whitaker as ‘Saw Gerrera’ , with Denise Gough, Stellan Skarsgård, Kyle Soller and Adria Arjona, streaming April 22, 2025, on Disney+:

“…set five years before the events of ‘Rogue One’, the series follows the adventures of the spy during the formative years of the ‘Rebellion’.

“It explores tales of espionage and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy, in the grip of a ruthless ‘Empire’…”

Disney+ has released the teaser trailer and poster for the highly anticipated second season of Lucasfilm's Emmy-nominated thriller Andor, which returns for its long-awaited conclusion on April 22.

Season 2 will see the characters and their relationships intensify as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.

Rife with political intrigue, danger, tension, and high stakes, the series is a prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which portrayed a heroic band of rebels who steal the plans for the Empire's weapon of mass destruction, The Death Star, setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film.

Andor sets the clock back five years from the events of Rogue One to tell the story of the film’s hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation from a disinterested,...

The revolution starts now, folks — at least for those who exist in the world of Andor. The critically acclaimed Star Warsseries based on characters from the movie Rogue One is back for its second, and final, season. And after blowing its initial budget out of the water to bring you something bigger and better than before, Disney and Lucasfilm are rolling out the red carpet for the show's return on April 22, 2025. Thanks to this new trailer and series of images to tease what's in store for Gabriel Luna and his merry band of resistance misfits, things are looking pretty explosive for our hopeful rebels.

And it looks like this season will mark the arrival of Ben Mendelsohn's Rogue One villain, Orson Krennic, into Cassian Andor's orbit, making their ultimate showdown in the aforementioned movie all the more tense. According to the series' official synopsis:

"Season 2 will see the characters...

Return to a galaxy far, far away this April as Andor 2 lands on Disney+. More on the show below.

Andor was without a doubt one of the best Star Wars shows we’ve had on Disney+. In fact, it might have been one of the best Disney+ shows in general. Disney and Lucasfilm always planned Andor to be formed of two seasons and since season 1 concluded in November 2022, fans have been eagerly waiting for news when season 2 might premiere.

A new trailer now confirms that Andor season 2 will premiere on Disney+ on 22nd April. As we said, Andor is a very good show indeed and it seems that Disney also knows it.

Take a look at the trailer below:

“The first season was hailed by critics everywhere” the trailer reminds us before including several quotes from different outlets, praising the series. Hopefully Andor season 2 will be able to live up...
