February 14th is a Friday in 2025, so that would seem to be the perfect choice of release date for a horror romantic comedy that’s set on Valentine’s Day, which is what the movie Heart Eyes is. But the February 14th release date has already been taken by Disney/Marvel’s Captain America: Brave New World and Paramount’s Smurfs animated movie… so Sony Pictures has chosen to release Heart Eyes on February 7th. Its competition on that date is the Universal action movie With Love, starring Ke Huy Quan.
Coming our way from Josh Ruben, the director of Werewolves Within and Scare Me, Heart Eyes was scripted by Happy Death Day director Christopher Landon, Landon’s Freaky collaborator Michael Kennedy (who also wrote It’s a Wonderful Knife), and Phillip Murphy (The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard). The film has the following synopsis: When the Heart Eyes Killer strikes Seattle, a...

Review: Joseph Kahn is one of the most underrated genre directors. His first movie, Torque, was a big flop but holds up relatively well twenty years later as a kind of quasi-spoof of early-2000s era action movies in the vein of XXX and The Fast and the Furious. His follow-up, the teen sci-fi flick, Detention, was a total blast, and the last movie he made, Bodied, was probably his best movie to date. Sadly, it kinda got lost when the short-lived YouTube Red picked it up. Now he’s back with Ick, which is very much in the mould of Detention and was one of the most energetic and fun movies I saw out of this year’s TIFF Midnight Madness.

Antoine Fuqua's 2001 cop drama "Training Day" is notable for its hellish tone, gritty photography, and amazing central performance from the incomparable Denzel Washington. Indeed, "Training Day" won Washington his second acting Academy Award for playing LAPD Detective Alonzo Harris, the most horrible and corrupt cop on the force. Ethan Hawke plays Jake Hoyt, the cop assigned to learn from Alonzo on the day before his promotion. Hoyt will get a disturbing crash course in how deeply the violence and corruption of the LAPD really runs.
Although Alonzo is a terrible person, he's an appealing villain, and many viewers came to love his gnashing and displays of brazen power. Alonzo's line "King Kong ain't got nothing on me," written by David Ayer, was briefly a part of the oft-repeated pop canon. "Training Day" was Fuqua's third feature as a director (after "The Replacement Killers" and "Bait"), but it was the...

You may not have noticed, but Beetlejuice is having a moment. With the upcoming sequel "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" all but guaranteed to make a ton of money this weekend at the box office, and Halloween on the way, the ghost with the most is going to be on everyone's minds for the next few months (even if we shouldn't say his name three times). You can see Beetlejuice everywhere: Movies, faux-episodes of "Hot Ones," through merchandise, and ... well, only somewhat at theme parks. You see, while Beetlejuice as a character is owned by the larger Warner Bros. Discovery entity, he does make appearances at the Universal Studios theme parks in California and Orlando. But these days, Universal execs might just be smacking their foreheads, because there was once a time not long ago when Universal Studios Orlando featured Beetlejuice as the ghost host with the most in a stage show that it eventually closed,...

The Daily Show is in Chicago for the opening night of the Democratic National Convention.
Michael Kosta kicked off the show at the Athenaeum Center for Thought & Culture by highlighting Vice President Kamala Harris’ policy plans for the next four days.
He pointed out that Tuesday’s theme is “A Bold Vision for America’s Future”, while Thursday’s theme is “For Our Future.”
“How do you have themes that are so vague and then still run out of ideas by Thursday. This is like when The Fast and The Furious movies ran out of different ways to say that the movies would be fast and furious,” he joked.
“2 Fast 2 Furious, Faster and More Furiouser and Fastestest and Furiousestestest,” he added, some of which are real and some are not. “We get it, the car goes vroom.”

One Fast Move is an example of young adult star-driven streaming cinema, a recycled effort of substandard films from a generation before. The K.J. Apa vehicle is tweaked just enough to look and feel different, but unless you are a dedicated cinephile—or a diehard fan of the genre of motorcycle films—you won’t recognize it.
No, One Fast Move is far from the original. It’s a direct rip-off of a series of biker films made over twenty years ago, like Torque, Supercross, and, of course, the infamous Laurence Fishburne film Biker Boyz. All of these films had howling plots, trying to create a The Fast & the Furious franchise of motorcycle films filled with murder and infidelity.

This article contains spoilers for Twisters.
What a way to end a movie! After surviving multiple major storms, corporate overlords, and fresh bouts of trauma, YouTube sensation Tyler Owens (Glen Powell) says goodbye to ambitious meteorologist Kate Carter (Daisy Edgar-Jones) in the closing moments of Twisters. The latter is going to New York City where she hopes to get some ethical funding for her research that might have found a way to thwart tornadoes.
Before Tyler and Kate say goodbye though, the two former rivals embrace one another in a long, soft kiss. They don’t let go after the kiss either. Instead they hold on for a few more seconds, looking longingly at one another’s eyes, with Kate playing with Tyler’s hair. After parting at last, the two go in for one more tender kiss, this one sweeter than the last.
Wait, what? You don’t remember that scene?...

Over the years, Brie Larson has starred in many types of roles. Outside of her Oscar win in a thriller film, the actress dominates the action genre, having been a part of films like Fast X, Kong: Skull Island, and most famously, Captain Marvel. Starring in this specific genre can come with a lot of perks. Actors get trained in several physical pursuits in order to prepare for their roles.
Specifically, after her role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a flying force to be reckoned with, one can assume that Larson has had a lot of fun experiences during the filming of these movies. From floating around by a crane to being a part of intricate fight scenes, she would certainly enjoy herself and become familiar with activities that others in her profession weren’t able to try out even once in their lives.

Bruce Lee dreamed of telling this story in the 70s. Half a century later, Lee's daughter Shannon took over the project, and the script fell into the hands of Justin Lin, director of several installments of The Fast and the Furious. The showrunner was Jonathan Tropper, known for Banshee – a crime TV show with an abundance of violence.
All this is Warrior, perhaps the best martial arts crime drama of the 21st century.

However, while many fans know that the cause of his death was the collision of his car with a curb, tree, and a light pole, what they don’t know is that this is only something scratching the surface of what actually happened that night. If anything, the autopsy reports brought forward such horrors from the incident that even Fast and Furious fans would be scared to drive a car after reading it.

Unfortunately, the second film never came to be, even though it was announced to the public, and many fans have wondered the reason for this. Recently, the director of the forgotten project gave an interview, and it is safe to say that Renner’s fans will be very upset with Damon.

We’ve seen other big-screen franchises make the leap to TV over the years, but could Fast & Furious be next?
While speaking with Variety, NBCUniversal Studio group chairman and chief content officer Donna Langley teased the future of the Fast & Furious franchise, saying there’s “still gas in the tank” even after the Fast X sequel hits theaters in 2026. Where the franchise goes from there is unclear, but Langley said, “We may pivot another time and bring it back to the streets of L.A. and maybe make it a more intimate story.” After mentioning previous NBCUniversal shows based on movies, such as Pitch Perfect and Ted, Langley said, “Fast and Furious is a good one” for a potential future TV series.

Roger Corman was a legend of filmmaking, and his contributions to the medium are unparalleled. He was known for low budgets and short shoots that made him an easy-to-work-with director, and for making B-movies that hit big with audiences. Most importantly, Corman mentored many of our greatest filmmakers, spreading his influence far and wide as those mentees broke big and started influencing others themselves. Take Martin Scorsese, one of the best living directors, who continues to be greatly influenced by Corman's work. But Corman's influence is also felt in more lowbrow cinema, like the work of Joe Dante and James Cameron.
Indeed, Corman's influence is still very much felt today, like in the way "The Fast and Furious" got its name. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, producer Neal Moritz explained that the 2001 franchise starter was initially going to be titled "Race Wars," or maybe "Racer X," or "Street Wars."

We have some sad news to share today because it's been confirmed that legendary B-movie filmmaker Roger Corman has passed away at 98.
He produced and directed hundreds of low-budget movies and was responsible for discovering the likes of Jack Nicholson (Little Shop of Horrors), Martin Scorsese (Boxcar Bertha), Francis Ford Coppola (Dementia 13), and Robert De Niro (Boxcar Bertha).
Beloved in Hollywood, Corman was praised for hiring women in key executive and creative roles at a time when that sadly wasn't the norm.
Also of note is the fact that, after producing a movie called The Fast and the Furious in 1955, he made a deal with fellow producer Neal Moritz to exchange the name rights for stock footage, meaning Corman played a small, yet unlikely role, in launching the hit racing/action series in 2001.

Roger Corman, the maverick producer of B-movies and iconoclastic subjects whose innovative low-budget enterprises launched the careers of numerous major filmmakers, died on Thursday at his home in Santa Monica. He was 98.
Corman’s career encompassed seven decades and more than 500 producing credits, including early work that launched the careers of major Hollywood figures such as Jack Nicholson, Bruce Dern, Peter Fonda, Frances Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, Peter Bogdanovich, Gale Anne Hurd, John Sayles, Ron Howard and Jonathan Demme. Yet Corman resented the commercial studio system, and as both producer and as a director himself, he pursued his cheap, no-frills filmmaking style at all costs, while using lowbrow genre tropes as a Trojan horse for socially conscious themes.
Over the years, Corman’s name has been most closely associated with the zany escapist enterprises often referred to as exploitation films, a term he abhorred. With producing credits such...

Norma Mitchell, the ex-wife of actor Tyrese Gibson, intensified her efforts to put an end to his online harassment by filing for a restraining order.
According to documents, Mitchell has urged the court to intervene and prevent Gibson from publicly addressing their disputes on social media platforms.
Mitchell alleges that The Fast & The Furious star’s defamatory remarks have had a profound emotional impact on her and seeks not only to halt the harassment but also to ensure that Gibson stays away from their daughter, Shayla, 16. In her filing, Mitchell highlights the repetitive nature of Gibson’s criticism on social media. Specifically, he cites five dates—April 30, May 1, May 2, May 6 and May 7—in which he allegedly made false and sensitive information available to their daughter, friends, family and the public.

Vin Diesel’s most famous creation, the Fast & Furious franchise has been around since 2001. For over two decades, it has been steadily evolving (or devolving?) from street racing action movies to movies with international espionage, cars going to space, and people being revived every other second — and lost some of its original fans thanks to that. The F&f movies have long lost their original ground.
But according to star Tyrese Gibson, that finally changes with Fast 11!
Fast & Furious Goes Back to Its Roots
Believe it or not, despite the F&f movies having been only getting progressively bigger in terms of scale and events, Fast 11 isn’t about to continue with this trend. The finale of Vin Diesel’s iconic franchise will be more grounded than the previous installments, more down-to-earth — at least, that’s what Tyrese is saying.

Two and a half decades later, Vin Diesel is ready to roll out the grand finale of his proudest film series, concluding it with Fast 11 — or, rather, he would have been ready to do it if not for the jeopardy and setback the final movie has admittedly encountered.

Despite the huge sensations like Barbie and Oppenheimer hitting the theaters in summer 2023, the previous year was rather for the movie industry, to say the least.

Confirming Tyrese Gibson’s earlier comments, Fast & Furious 11 begins filming in January 2025, director Louis Leterrier says, with its release planned for June the following year.
Given how quiet Universal’s been about the whole production, the original plan to have Fast & Furious 11 in cinemas by April 2025 was sounding increasingly unlikely with each passing day. Backing up Tyrese Gibson’s comments from earlier in the month, director Louis Leterrier has confirmed that the sequel won’t begin filming in January 2025 – which will have an inevitable knock-on effect on its release date.
Talking to Collider, Leterrier said that he wouldn’t even be starting pre-production on Fast 11 until the 16th September this year – the reason being he has another film, a sci-fi horror film called 11817 in the works until the day before.

With one movie, Michelle Rodriguez went from a Toys “R” Us employee with zero acting experience to a bona fide movie star. That movie was 2000’s Girlfight.
Karyn Kusama, the writer-director of that indie — which tied for the grand jury prize at Sundance — joined The Hollywood Reporter‘s It Happened in Hollywood podcast to reminisce about making the landmark boxing film.
From the start, Rodriguez, 21 at the time, saw the blueprint for what would become a lasting career in the glare of the Hollywood mainstream.
“I remember really vividly after Sundance, after getting all this attention, she was telling me what she wanted to do,” Kusama said. “She was like, ‘You know, there’s this video game I love called Resident Evil. I really want to see if there’s a movie of that. And if there is, I want to be in it. And I read this script that...

David E. Diano, a veteran camera operator with credits including Tombstone, The Fast and the Furious, Wedding Crashers and Spider-Man 3, has died. He was 71.
Diano died Jan. 22 at Huntington Hospital in Pasadena of coronary issues after a battle with prostate cancer, his wife, still photographer Gemma Lamana, told The Hollywood Reporter.
