When Curry Barker moved to Los Angeles a few years ago, he thought getting his short films on the festival circuit would be his path to making it as a director. But soon he discovered just uploading his films directly to YouTube was getting him attention. His 2023 horror short The Chair landed him Hollywood representation and a deal to direct a $1 million movie, Obsession. Then in August, he posted the $800 feature Milk & Serial, which he wrote, directed and starred in. It exploded online, attracting 1 million views.
“It just catapulted the amount of meetings I was taking,” says Barker, who notes he met with practically every studio and major horror producer in town.
Barker, also known for his comedy sketches on YouTube, is part of a new class of filmmakers who honed their chops on YouTube before breaking into Hollywood. The platform allows them to flex their creative muscles without...

In the wake of Sony’s success with Colleen Hoover’s It Ends With Us, which racked up $344.5M worldwide, Universal is getting in on the action with the New York Times bestselling author, having landed rights to her novel Reminders of Him.

The MCU is gearing up to introduce the Mutants, something we’ve known since Disney acquired Fox. While you could argue that the Mutants have already made a few brief appearances, the X-Men themselves haven’t yet entered the MCU.
Although their full debut is still some time away, Marvel has promised a major introduction in the future.
Even though we don’t know all the details, it’s clear that Feige and Marvel are taking their time to get it right. The X-Men’s arrival in the MCU will be a major moment and will shape the franchise for years to come.
Given the importance of this debut, fans are understandably anxious about who Marvel will cast. With an already-established X-Men universe, comparisons between the old and new casts are inevitable.

Fans of the comedy horror Bodies Bodies Bodies will be disappointed to learn that the movie will leave Netflix on Sept. 19, 2024. But the good news is that a long list of horror comedies is available on the streaming service to fill the void. And don't miss this year's Netflix & Chills lineup.
Bodies Bodies Bodies and other horror comedies are a unique subgenre of horror that mixes slasher elements with absurd comedic ones. Mixing comedy with horror is nothing new, as Edgar Allan Poe and other writers often combined the two in their works.
Bride of Chucky
Bride of Chucky is the fourth installment of the Child's Play franchise, written by creator Don Mancini and directed by Ronny Yu, also known for Freddy vs. Jason (2003).

The time has come to acknowledge Dan Stevens for the scream king that he is. This year alone, his genre credits include Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, Abigail, and director Tilman Singer’s new film Cuckoo, where he plays a mysterious and undeniably villainous resort owner named Herr König. In the same way that scream queens have helped shape and define the fabric of horror and its feminine roles, recurring scream kings like Stevens have similarly influenced the spectrum of masculinity represented in the genre.
After shocking Downton Abbey fans when he turned in his resignation nearly 12 years ago, it was unclear what Stevens’ career future would look like. Thankfully for us horror fans, his desire for diverse creative experiences quickly drew him towards genre fare. With his disarming good looks and willingness to get weird, wild, and downright drenched in blood, Stevens brings a palpable enthusiasm to every project he touches.

Stars: Kristen Stewart, Katy O’Brien, Jena Malone, Anna Baryshnikov, Ed Harris, Dave Franco | Written and Directed by Rose Glass
Lou (Kristen Stewart) lives a remotely modest life, working as a gym manager in a small town in New Mexico. She soon meets Jackie (Katy O’Brien), an ambitious bodybuilder with dreams of competing in Las Vegas. As the two grow closer, Lou’s family dynamics take over their lives, leading to disastrous consequences.
Let’s begin by stating the obvious — Rose Glass’ work in Love Lies Bleeding has changed the lesbian canon of cinema forever. Even in 2024, a shrewd, meaningful sapphic movie that doesn’t try to be sexual for the sake of pleasure is terribly hard to come by, with golden nuggets such as Carol and Disobedience passing muster. While these often-tragic love stories are all well and good, Glass has doubled down on her unique offerings by incorporating genre and nuanced scope,...

A24’s “Love Lies Bleeding,” our top new release to stream this week, is more of an Independent Spirit Awards contender than an Academy Awards contender. Watch out for Kristen Stewart in Best Lead Performance and, especially, Katy O’Brian for Best Breakthrough Performance for her work as unstable, steroid-abusing bodybuilder Jackie Cleaver. But there is one Oscar category that “Love Lies Bleeding” should win with extreme prejudice: Best Makeup and Hairstyling. Hair department head Megan Daum came up with the widest variety of mullets ever put on film. Ed Harris somehow has a bald mullet. It’s incredible.
“Love Lies Bleeding” is a romantic crime thriller from director Rose Glass. Gym manager Lou (Stewart) and itinerant bodybuilder Jackie (O’Brian) meet and fall in love, but there are many threats to their relationship, including Lou’s slimy brother-in-law JJ (Dave Franco) and dangerous crime boss father Lou Sr. (Harris). If they want to be free,...

Lionsgate has announced a November 2025 release date for Now You See Me 3 – a few extra details right here.
It was all the way back in 2016 that we go Now You See Me 2, a film whose ending still seems to require a masters degree level of explanation. A fun film, but one that got over-complicated as it wrangled its plot.
The core idea – a bunch of magicians and illusionists using their skills to pull off heists – remains a good one. As such, Lionsgate has been chatting about pulling together a Now You See Me 3 for some time. It’s certainly taking its time getting it over the line, but filming took place earlier this year.
In the cast for the new film? Jesse Eisneberg, Isla Fisher, Arianna Greenblatt, Dominic Sessa, Justice Smith, Woody Harrelson, Mark Ruffalo, Dave Franco, Morgan Freeman and Rosamund Pike are in the ensemble. The...

This year can’t be really considered fruitful for top-notch crime flicks. Yes, we’ve seen such decent gems as Jason Statham’s The Beekeeper and Glen Powell Hit Man that contained some elements of the genre, but the other ones were quite disappointing.
However, one incredibly captivating neo-noir gem was released this March, and it offered a unique combination of the genres that is now rarely seen on the big screen. We bet you still haven’t seen it; luckily, it begins streaming on Max already next month.
This movie gem starts by introducing us to Lou, an asocial gym manager who comes from a criminal family that is holding the whole town in its hands by possessing an illegal weapon business. She is forced to stay in town as she protects her weaker sister.
However, her life turns upside down when she meets bodybuilder Jackie, for whom she falls heavily in love.

In an age where a major studio movie starring two Oscar nominees debuted on digital after 17 days (that’d be The Fall Guy), it seems like a minor miracle that Rose Glass’ Love Lies Bleeding is only now becoming available on digital retailers.
You can own Love Lies Bleeding digitally from 2nd July. Glass directed the film and also wrote the script together with Weronika Tofilska. It’s the British filmmaker’s second film, following on the heels of the immensely disturbing but stunningly-made horror character study, Saint Maud. Seriously, if you haven’t seen that one yet for some reason, do track it down now. Also, brace yourself for an intense evening’s entertainment.
The film follows a body builder Jackie (Katy O’Brian) and gym manager Lou (Kristen Stewart) whose whirlwind romance...

Is 23 Jump Street Coming Back For Third Chapter? ( Photo Credit – Prime Video )
Back when Sony officially put the third chapter of the 23 Jump Street trilogy into motion, a feature film adaptation of the Johnny Depp-led 1980s TV series, it was revealed that the movie was being designed as a crossover with the Men in Black franchise, but it never happened. Reflecting on the R-rated comedy blockbusters, Channing Tatum has opened up that he is still very much interested in making 23 Jump Street with Jonah Hill.
Talking with ComicBook.com while promoting his upcoming movie Fly Me to the Moon, the Step Up star said, “There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie. When asked by co-star Scarlett Johansson what happened, the actor said, “It’s just a lot of bureaucracy, kind of above the line stuff.

In what sounds like a Hollywood fever dream, Channing Tatum is campaigning for a blockbuster franchise crossover that would truly be out of this world.
Following the news in the 2014 Sony email leak, Tatum confirmed that a crossover of 21 Jump Street and Men in Black, entitled Mib 23, was once in development, and he’s still hoping the ambitious movie gets made.
“There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” he told ComicBook.com after starring alongside Jonah Hill in the 2012 action comedy 21 Jump Street and its sequel 22 Jump Street (2014).
An adaptation of the 1987-1991 Fox series, they played two arguably youthful-looking cops assigned to go undercover in a high school. Original stars Johnny Depp, Holly Robinson and Peter DeLuise made cameos in the movie, with Richard Grieco and Dustin Nguyen appearing in the sequel.

Perhaps the best thing to come out of Hollywood's never-ending attempts to turn hit TV shows into movies is Phil Lord & Chris Miller's hilarious take on "21 Jump Street" starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill. Taking a cue from the beloved TV series that premiered in 1987 with cast members like Johnny Depp and Richard Grieco, the 2012 action comedy follows the awkward but smart Morton Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and dimwitted, popular star athlete Greg Jenko (Channing Tatum) in their post-high school lives as they become unlikely friends and partners on the police force when they're assigned to an undercover assignment to bust a drug ring in high school.
"21 Jump Street" has just enough meta sensibilities in the story to poke fun at Hollywood's formula of turning TV shows into movies without becoming a full-blown parody, and it also features delightful supporting turns from Brie Larson, Dave Franco, Nick Offerman,...

Channing Tatum is still hoping the long-rumored third 21 Jump Street film becomes a reality.
In an interview with ComicBook.com published Monday, the Fly Me to the Moon actor reflected on reading a script for a third 21 Jump Street movie that would once again star himself and Jonah Hill.
“There is a project that was written, and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” Tatum said.
Following the release of the two successful 21 Jump Street films, Sony had been tossing around the idea of a crossover movie featuring two of its biggest comedy franchises, 21 Jump Street and Men in Black. Hill would later reveal that the merging of the movies was unlikely to happen.
“I had the idea,” Hill told the Toronto Sun at the time. “But I doubt that movie will get made.”
