By now we’re all well acquainted with the secrecy surroundingStar Wars: The Force Awakens, but I know one person who will probably be pretty thrilled when this thing finally hits theaters:Rian Johnson. TheLooperfilmmaker is writing and directingStar Wars: Episode VIII, which starts production imminently, but he’s been unable to say pretty much a single word about it for fear of spoiling aspects ofThe Force Awakens. After all, Lucasfilm wouldn’t want to ruin a character’s fate by announcing that person is or isn’t part of theEpisode VIIIcast....

Supergirlwas an okay-fine superhero series when it debuted on CBS, but the move to The CW has really opened up the show’s plots, cast of characters, and fun-factor. The energy is different, the dialogue has a more free-flowing conversational tone to it, and the characters now live and breathe and interact with each other in ways that make them more human (and superman) than merely comic book cutouts. The CW is well-versed in bringing character drama to the small screen, but the TV-verse is even better at folding in the most fantastic elements of their superhero series' source material....

They say timing is everything, and well,RuPaul’s Drag Racetimed their premiere out perfectly. To set up the season, rather than launch the premiere straight into the typical Werk Room entrances,Season 17of thereality competition serieskicked off with aSquidGame-inspired cold opening. Called “Squirrel Game,” the queens of the new season, alongside majorDrag Racealumni and random extras in drag or clown garb, are thrust into this sickening game. Playing “Ru Light, Green Light,“the queens had to serve their best moves when the beat drops....

The Oliver and Barry switcheroo in “Elseworlds” was fun, but now it’s time to get back toFlashbusiness. In themidseason finale(and the show’s 100th episode), Nora found out that Reverse Flash – a weirdTom Cavanagh/Matt Letscherhybrid – who she has ostensibly been helping, was actually the one who killed her grandmother. That info is going to be extremely important to the Team Flash dynamic moving forward, but first! There is a new meta team-up Weather Witch and Silver Ghost that the S....

If, upon watchingStar Wars: The Last Jedi, you found yourself thinking, “That’s not my Luke Skywalker,” you’re in good company.Mark Hamillhimself has said exactly that, as revealed in a new video interview.

Focusing on a pair of successful but troubled gynecologists, the movie unnerved audiences for its portrayal of cinema’s most toxic codependent relationship....

Launching a film franchise can be very difficult. Even when adapting successful material with a built-in fan base, there are plenty of pitfalls that studios and creatives can stumble into. Often,studios simply put so much effort into world-building and setting up future charactersthat they fail at making a single satisfying film that audiences would want to see any follow-ups to. Those franchise-starters that do manage to tell a solid standalone story often fail regardless of their quality because audiences don’t show up for them....

But beyond her literary credits, O’Connor remains a figure shrouded in mystery and contradictions that rouse debate.
