Kingsman director Matthew Vaughn has now confirmed that the third installment of the popular spy comedy franchise will wrap up Eggsy’s story arc. Teasing a recent interview with the director, Comicbook.com revealed that Vaughn will be concluding Taron Egerton’s role in the franchise with Kingsman 3, which is currently set to start filming in September 2022. The news also matches up with comments the lead actor made back in 2019 when a third installment was still in consideration after Disney acquired 20th Century Fox. Explaining that he’d love to return for one final time to play out the storyline for Eggsy, Egerton said “I’m not really allowed to say anything, but there is a script. It’s a really neat idea. That plan, at the moment, is that we’d like to do another one, one ...

With the release date of The Matrix Resurrections inching ever closer, Warner Bros. released a new trailer over at The Game Awards 2021 bringing back one of the original trilogy’s fan-favorite characters: Laurence Fishburne‘s Morpheus. Featured above, the new clip follows Keanu Reeves‘ Neo as he gets reacquainted with the Matrix and the duality of his world, with Jessica Henwick’s Bugs as his tour guide. After stepping through different dimensions and locations, Neo ultimately walks into a room to meet the film’s new Morpheus, played by Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, who plays to him clips of his past. No doubt as a nod to Fishburne, his version of the character also flashes on the screen, alongside a younger Neo and Trinity. Check out the new trailer above while you wait for The Matrix Resur...

The Riddler has unmasked the Caped Crusader in the upcoming The Batman‘s latest international trailer. With his ominous voice booming through the entirety of the trailer, we hear Paul Dano‘s Riddler proclaiming that he’s “here to unmask the truth about this city,” before a long sequence of violence and villainy from the troublemaker. Just as the trailer ends, we find out that Edward Nashton ultimately discovers who the man behind the cowl is, calling Bruce Wayne out by name. “Rob [Pattinson] is perfect for this role. He was incredible. His transformation was out of this world,” Catwoman actress Zoë Kravitz said in a recent interview, adding that director “Matt Reeves has a lot of heart, and he cares so much for these characters. I’m just very excited for him to be able to go on vacati...

HBO has released its first look trailer for its new series, Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty. The film is directed by Adam Mckay from The Big Short and Vice, and is based on Jeff Pearlman’s non-fiction book Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley, and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s. The minute-and-a-half trailer begins with team owner Jerry Buss, played by John C. Reilly, saying, “there are two things in this world that make me believe in God: sex and basketball. I’m about to buy a team.” It then snaps to the 1979 NBA draft, in which the Lakers select Magic Johnson, played by Quincy Isaiah, who becomes the cornerstone of the Lakers dynasty. Other characters shown include Solomon Hughes as Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Jason Clarke as Jerry West, Sally Field as Jessie Buss, Hadley Ro...

A first-edition Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone has just sold for a staggering $471,000 USD. The book was sold over at Heritage Auctions and one of only 500 hardback versions of the iconic tale ever printed and published back in 1997. Bidding started at $75,000 USD but quickly surged. “It’s the most expensive commercially published 20th-century work of fiction ever sold,” said the auction house’s executive VP Joe Maddalena. “This result shows the power of that combination of literature and cinema.” Aside from the first-edition Harry Potter, the rest of the auction included some 70 first editions from other popular literary works that ultimately got adapted into films. Among them was J.R.R. Tolkien‘s The Lord of the Rings trilogy that sold for $103,125 USD and all seven b...

Coodie Simmons and Chike Ozah, the directors for the upcoming Netflix documentary series jeen-Yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy, sit down for a “Director on Director” discussion in which they share their personal experiences throughout the years growing alongside Kanye West over the past two decades. In the 10-minute video, the duo reminisces on a variety of topics and moments starting off with their first impressions. Simmons met Ye early in his career at a barbershop and said he would always come with beats. “I remember he had the one beat that JAY-Z picked later on in life called H to Izz-O. I was like, this is so ill. Here was this kid with braces, talented,” said Simmons.” This dude is not scared, he’s not scared of nothing.” Commenting on Ye’s meteoric rise and what the audience may learn from t...

Tom Holland joins host Sean Evans for the Season 16 finale of First We Feast’s Hot Ones, the iconic show with “hot questions and even hotter wings.” Holland arrives on the show ahead of the premiere of one of this year’s most heavily anticipated films Spider-Man: No Way Home in which he plays Peter Parker. Describing his heat tolerance, Holland prefaces by saying, “at Nando’s I’m a medium, or a hot if I’m feeling adventurous. Extra hot is too far gone for me.” Despite that, he’s able to power through the gauntlet and even takes a few extra bites along the way, powering through with no milk until he’s ultimately hit with “Da Bomb,” which he describes as “the worst thing that I’ve put in my mouth.” In the interview with Evans, Holland touches on several topics including working with Alfred M...

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, now legally known as Ye, were one of the world’s most famous couples, yet after seven years of marriage, it all came to an end as Kim filed for divorce this February. However, it seems that Ye is staying optimistic — despite Kim hanging out with Pete Davidson rather closely — as it seems he wants his ex-wife back. During the rapper’s performance of “Runaway” at his Free Larry Hoover concert earlier this week, Ye added a verse, stating, “I need you to run right back to me, more specifically Kimberly.” The event, which was live-streamed on Amazon Prime on Thursday from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, was in aid of raising awareness about prison reform, notably Larry Hoover’s case, who is currently serving six life sentences for committing murder and co-...
