It’s crazy to think just how ambitious the vision was for 2007’s Tin Man (streaming here on Peacock), SYFY‘s (formerly the Sci-Fi Channel) genre-mixing event series that extensively reimagined Frank Baum’s classic children’s novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. A modern-day fairy tale that updated the kid-centric story with a more mature PG-13 sort of vibe,…

It’s been almost four years since SYFY aired The Magicians series finale (pick up all five seasons right here), but the magic continues to endure. Based on the trilogy of bestselling novels written by author Lev Grossman — The Magicians, The Magician King, and The Magician’s Land — the show centers around the students of…

The Planet of the Apes series is, without question, the most well-known fictional example of animal uplift, the common name given to the practice of increasing non-human intelligence. In the 1968 original, a small crew of astronauts travel more than 2,000 years into the future and arrive on what they believe to be an alien…

After a 13-month hiatus, La Brea is back to answer all our questions and solve all its mysteries.

Yes, Josh Hutcherson has seen the Josh Hutcherson whistle meme from TikTok. And no, he doesn’t really understand it, either.  “There’s like, this whistle thing,” Hutcherson told the audience during his January 9 visit to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon—and they cheered, because they’ve seen it, too.  In case you’re not familiar, the Josh Hutcherson whistle…

M3GAN’s friend ’till the end can’t wait to get back on set for the techno-slasher sequel. Recently catching up with DiscussingFilm on the red carpet of the Astra Film Awards — where, fun fact, M3GAN took home a win for Best Horror Feature — actress Violet McGraw said that she’s “very excited” to start filming the…

There are many famous Hollywood stories about actors who were nearly cast in an iconic part that was ultimately played by someone else. Britney Spears screen-tested with Ryan Gosling for Rachel McAdam’s role in The Notebook, for example, while Eric Stoltz shot multiple scenes as Marty McFly before Back to the Future was recast with Michael J….

How do we know it wasn’t Chucky who pushed Regina George in front of that bus? That totally sounds like something he’d do. With a new Mean Girls film playing in theaters, the killer doll with his own hit show (now streaming on Peacock!) decided to get in on the cliquey fun by posting his very own…

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (streaming now on Peacock) is a cautionary tale about the unconstrained pursuit of knowledge. Researcher Will Rodman (James Franco) cooks up what is supposed to be a treatment for Alzheimer’s and accidentally stumbles onto a compound which not only repairs damage to the brain but improves it as…

The 1993 sci-fi action hit is a Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes movie through and through, and it has been for three decades, so it’s wild to even consider other actors in those roles. But of course, that doesn’t…
