J.A. Bayona’sUntitled Jurassic World Sequelis about to get a little more chaotic.Jeff Goldblum, who’s become somewhat of an internet sensation in recent years despite a filmography that stretches back to the mid-1970s, famously starred as chaos theorist Dr. Ian Malcolm inSteven Spielberg’s 1993 adaptation ofJurassic Park, written by the lateMichael Crichton. Malcolm survived both the initial incident and the follow-up film (and novel),The Lost World. He was also referenced inJurassic Park IIIand even mentioned inColin Trevorrow’sJurassic World; one of his novels is also shown, so it’s clear that Malcolm is alive and well and profiting from his experiences....

TheJurassic WorldsequelJurassic World: Fallen Kingdomis off to a swell start at the box office, but don’t go expectingJurassic World-like numbers this weekend. The follow-up scored $15.3 million at the box office from Thursday night previews, which is a nice launch for theJ.A. Bayona-directed sequel but falls short of the $18.5 million thatJurassic Worldearned from its Thursday previews in 2015. Indeed, no one expectsFallen Kingdomto perform quite as monstrously asColin Trevorrow’s sequelboot did, which scored the biggest domestic opening weekend of all time with $208....

The drama surrounding rumors ofThe Real Housewives of New Jerseyundergoing a complete reboot ofthe reality serieswas not enough to distract the Bravo kingpin and sit-down hostAndy Cohen.

There’s something about group sex, or at least the implication of it, that elevates the plot and gets the drama percolating. It’s a sex act that’s been shockingly scarce on Bravo, with the exception of the usually conservativeSouthern Charmhaving an implied threesome.Austen Krollwas immortalized in the Bravo Hall of Fame for a viral clip of then girlfriend Madison Lecroy walking in on him with two other girls in his bed that he claimed were only sleeping....

[Editor’s note: The following containsspoilersthrough the Season 1 finale ofLoki, “For All Time. Always."] LokiSeason 1 has come to a close, with the biggest twist perhaps being that there would be a second season. However, the morning that Collider spoke with director Kate Herron aboutLoki, it was revealed that she wouldnot be returningto direct the next installment of the story. This meant our conversation later that day could focus on the production of Season 1, specifically how COVID affected things, how the season comes full circle for her, and how she feels about the tragedy of Mobius and the jet-ski....

If you thought it may become one of those Hollywood casualties, you’d be wrong, as today brings word that the film—which has hadMark Wahlbergattached to star for a while now—has an official release date. TWC-Dimension announced the film is slated to hit theaters on July 06, 2025. While Wahlberg is confirmed to star and produce,Damián Szifron(Wild Tales), whopenned the screenplayis also on board to direct....

Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers for Hacks Season 4Hackshas been heralded as one of the funniest shows in recent memory, and also one of the most painfully accurate depictions of what it is like to be a comedy writer —just askConan O’Brien, who recently admitted that he struggled to watch the series because of its authenticity.Hacksexamines the generational differences in comedy, as it centers on the dark relationship between the legendary stand-up comedian Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) and the edgy comedy writer Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder), whose dynamic grows more complex when they attain greater success....

I’ve been pretty back and forth on Disney’s live-action remakes—their quality, their artistic choices, whether they need to exist, etc etc—but I’m delighted to report that the footage fromMulanshown at Disney D23 presentation whips all kinds of words I can’t use in a Disney article. While it looks like the studio wasn’t quite ready to release the new footage online, Collider was in the room to see directorNiki Caro’s live-action take on the animated classic....

In addition toUncut Gemsmaking its Netflix premiere next month, cinematic classics likeAce Ventura, the missing pair ofBack to the Futureflicks (since Part III is already in place), theUnderworldtrilogy, and many more return to the service this May. (The kiddos out there can also enjoy a trio ofThomas & Friendsflicks, which should hopefully give parents and caregivers a much-needed break, at least for a little while.) Then, of course, is the ever-increasing list of Netflix Originals, likeRyan Murphy’sHollywood, comedy specials fromJerry SeinfeldandPatton Oswalt, the final season of DreamWorks' hit animated seriesShe-Ra and the Princesses of Power, and many more....

SinceLindsay Hubbardannounced her pregnancy in the premiere episodeof this season’sSummer House, the dynamics of the house have shifted in unexpected ways. A notoriously wild summer outlet filled with drunken antics, fiery arguments, and late-night hookups isn’t exactly the ideal environment for a mom-to-be. But beyond the expected changes to the party-heavy lifestyle, one of the biggest surprises has been the unexpected alliance forming between two of the show’s strongest personalities: Lindsay andPaige DeSorbo....

The period crime drama we have all come to love,Peaky Blinders, has concluded. Its sixth and final season has been released on Netflix and wrapped up the story of the Shelby crime family of Small Heath, Birmingham — at least for now. The ending of the show leaves an avenue to exploit what one might expect in the spin-off feature film that has been planned by creatorSteven Knight. The final season was filled with a lot of loss and trauma, and there was even a bit of redemption thrown in for good measure....

We can sit and yammer until the sun burns out about the many ways the Marvel Cinematic Universe has affected film on a business level, but one of the more obvious ripples on a pure storytelling level has been the way every other studio has been desperate, dare I say thirsty to build a billion dollar multi-movie franchise to call their own. Lionsgate’sRobin Hood—the latest ofmanytakes on the legendary steal-from-the-rich rapscallion out of Sherwood Forest—is possibly the most obvious example since Universal’s Dark Universe blinked into nothingness with the sound ofTom Cruise’s weird inhuman scream....
