Ben Affleck has officially confirmed that his final appearance as Batman will be in The Flash. Affleck last appeared as the Caped Crusader in Zack Snyder‘s Justice League. The actor recently told The Herald Sun how he felt filming The Flash, calling the experience “a really nice finish on my experience with that character.” Affleck described his final appearance as some of his “favorite scenes” as the titular character.

I hope they maintain the integrity of what we did because I thought it was great and really interesting – different, but not in a way that is incongruent with the character.” When as...

Quentin Tarantino announced that he’s written a second book in the universe of his latest movie, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. In a recent interview with Empire, the filmmaker shared that the newest book focuses on The Films of Rick Dalton, is penned by him “in 1999” and includes a Q&A with Leonardo DiCaprio’s character. “It gives you a little quickie biography of his life,” he said. “And then it starts going through the career: ‘…and then there’s this episodic television show, and then this other television show, and then this movie, and that movie’, and starts with the small parts he has in this one, and it builds, with little reviews of each thing, little synopses of each of them. And it goes through the entire career until he retires in 1988.” However, not all fans might be able t...

In a recent interview with Total Film, Tom Holland revealed that he pitched Sony Pictures a James Bond film idea. “I had a meeting, after or during Spider-Man 2 [Spider-Man: Far From Home], with Sony to pitch this idea of a young Bond film that I’d come up with,” said the young actor. “It was the origin story of James Bond. It didn’t really make sense. It didn’t work. It was the dream of a young kid, and I don’t think the Bond estate [was] particularly interested.” Going on to note how the failed pitch became the film adaptation of the popular video game series Uncharted. “The idea of a young Bond film sparked this idea, in turn, that you could do a Nathan Drake story as an origin story, rather than as an addition to the games…And that opened a conversation.” Revealing how his ambition lan...
