Executive producer and director Shawn Levy revealed that filming will begin this spring, but when pressed for specifics, he wouldn’t say much.

When it comes toHilary Swankpossibly reprising her role fromThe Next Karate Kidfor an appearance inCobra Kai, fans have long been asking, “Will she or won’t she?” While theCobra Kaicreators have expressed their desire to have Swank’s Julie Pierce show up at some point in the series, it’s not something that has yet materialized five seasons into the show. Perhaps we could see this happen in a sixth season on Netflix, but even if theCobra Kaiteam is interested in Julie’s return, Swank would still have to agree....

From the outset, the show seems to indicate that, aside from his love interest Pam, Jim Halpert is the only ‘cool’ and ‘normal’ person in this wacky office. Jim seems friendly, helpful, and charming, but what if he is not a nice guy at all?...

There are certain actors who do things that make all the misgivings of Hollywood melt away in a heartwarming moment, and someone who does that better than anyone isDwayne Johnson. TheBlack Adamactor provided one of those moments this weekend when he took to his social media account to sing happy birthday to a 102 year old in what has become a strange but completely endearing annual tradition for the former wrestler that began on the centenary of “Grandma Grover” and we hope that it doesn’t stop anytime soon....

PresidentTrumpbashed actor andSaturday Night Liveimpersonator, Alec Baldwin, early this morning after Baldwin told an interviewer that it was “agony” having to portray the president. Baldwin was a favorite target of Trump’s during the 2016 presidential campaign and he frequently took to his favorite form of social media to call the actor’s impersonations “sad.” Donald Trump’s White House has seen a series of setbacks over the last week, which may have attributed to his tirade on Alec Baldwin this morning, spelling his name wrong as well as the word “dying....

Tom Hardy has given Marvel Comics fans a big Carnage tease in a pair ofVenom 2set images. As is the case with nearly every time Hardy posts pictures from the set, he has since deleted them. Thankfully, a few fans were quick on the trigger and were able to capture some screenshots of the pictures. Andy Serkis is behind the camera for the sequel and he can be seen in one of Hardy’s now-deleted images giving some direction with a smile on his face....

Warner Bros. has found its new CEO in Ann Sarnoff. She becomes the first female CEO in the company’s long, storied, nearly 100-year history. This is a pick that comes as a surprise, but a welcome one, for a variety of reasons. Not just become Sarnoff is breaking new ground. She was under the radar as the search forKevin Tsujihara’s replacementhad been going on. Be that as it may, she seems highly qualified for the job....

Avengers: Endgameco-writer Christopher Markus believes Ant-Man would die in Thanos' butt. The grossestEndgametheory can now be finally put to rest. When the movie was first being promoted and everybody knew Scott Lang would be joining Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, one fan decided he had figured it all out. The movie would only have to be a few seconds long as Lang shrinks down and enters Thanos through his anal cavity. From there, he expands, ripping The Mad Titan apart from the inside....

Hollywood, year after year, produces blockbuster hits with explosions, fantastical stunts, and quippy one-liners against the bad guys. They also continue to produce cliché comedies with the stereotypical jokes to get audiences to laugh. Let’s not forget the “hard-hitting” and emotional dramas for more sophisticated movie-goers.
