This article contains Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga spoilers.
Furiosa’s world is not a romantic place. George Miller’s post-apocalyptic Wasteland is barely habitable and fit for the toughest of survivors only. The young Furiosa (Alyla Browne) must learn this fast in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga when she is snatched from her idyllic home. Her mother tries desperately to rescue her and very nearly manages but instead is caught, tortured, and killed by Dementusm (Chris Hemsworth) and his men in front of her daughter. Dementus wants to know where Furiosa’s home is. But Furiosa knows she can’t tell him, even if it means watching the person she loves most in the world burned, maimed, and murdered.

Chris Pratt admits he wasn’t very smart with his first big paycheck after breaking into Hollywood.
During an appearance on SiriusXM’s Sway in the Morning, the actor opened up about his “made it” moment as well as learning about the importance of financial literacy later in life.
When Pratt was asked if he was frugal with the money he initially earned from acting because of his modest beginnings, he quickly responded, “No!”
“I was under the impression that I would never run out of money,” the Guardians of the Galaxy star explained with a laugh. “The first paycheck I got, I was like, ‘Are you serious?’ I had lived on very little money for a long time, so the first big job I got … was a TV movie. I got paid $75,000.”
He went on to sing his own rendition of George Michael’s “Careless Whisper”: “I was like,...

Almost every strand of DNA within Atlas’ genetic makeup is toxic. The haphazard, ham-handed sci-fi film, distributed by a streamer that utilizes computer algorithms to guide its creative process, revolves around a guilt-riddled heroine fighting “evil” artificial intelligence with the help of a “good” artificial intelligence.

The iconic Steven Spielberg has been focusing more on human dramas as of late, except for the occasional special effects-laden vehicles like Ready Player One and The Bfg — even sitting out Indiana Jones for the first time with the last entry, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. However, Deadline has now revealed that Universal Pictures has reserved a release date for May 15, 2026, for what is being described as an “original event film” that has been created by and will be directed by Spielberg.
It is not revealed what the event film is. However, it was reported last month that Spielberg would reunite with frequent collaborator David Koepp for an original UFO movie that has been kept very secretive. The UFO movie is said to be based on Steven Spielberg’s own original idea and that David Koepp is writing the screenplay. Unfortunately, that would be all the information given at this point.

We had learned earlier this year that Steven Spielberg was reteaming with David Koepp (Jurassic Park) on an untitled “UFO film based on his own original idea,” and it would appear that Universal Pictures has dated that project for release this afternoon.
Universal will be bringing an untitled “original event film” from Steven Spielberg to theaters on May 15, 2026, which has David Koepp as the writer. It feels safe to say, all things considered, that this is the aforementioned UFO movie, but we’ve got no confirmation at this time.
Stay tuned for more on Spielberg’s mysterious new UFO movie as we learn it.
Interesting to note, Koepp is himself returning to his early roots with the next installment in the Jurassic World franchise. He’ll be writing next year’s untitled new installment.

Scarlett Johansson has been an A-list talent for many years and has starred in a diverse range of films over the years. The actress has confidently proven that she can be a part of franchises like the MCU and also do smaller character-driven dramas like Marriage Story. The actress has also faced a lot of problems professionally where she had to take legal action.

Thanks to his standout role as Hangman in Top Gun: Maverick and the success of his recent romcom Anyone But You, Glen Powell is well on his way to becoming one of the most highly in-demand actors in Hollywood.
When any actor starts to make waves, it almost seems inevitable that the superhero movie offers will start coming in, and Powell has emerged as a fan-favorite pick to play Cyclops in Marvel Studios' upcoming X-Men reboot.
Despite (made up) rumors to the contrary, Powell hasn't actually met with Kevin Feige about potentially playing Scott Summers, but even if the opportunity were to present itself down the line, it doesn't sound like the Twisters star would have much interest.

Scarlett Johansson is one of the few MCU actors who have managed to maintain a splendid career after being part of such a highly beloved franchise. One would think that after her successful run in the comic book universe, the actress would want to avoid joining any more franchises and instead focus on showcasing her talents in independent features.
Yet, this assumption is far from the truth. As the dust settles on her MCU departure, the actress has taken a bold move that could prove to be a misstep in her otherwise successful career.

Defying fan expectations, Johansson is helming not one, but two acclaimed franchises, i.e. Transformers and Jurassic World. What could possibly be a huge gamble for her career, the actress is one of the leads in the upcoming Jurassic World reboot, apart from having a voiceover role in the Transformers franchise.

Garfield isn't actually the first name for the cartoon strip. Way back in 1976 creator Jim Davis named it 'Jon'. It wouldn't be the first time that a different character came to become central to a franchise. The presence of Chris Pratt is a pointer towards animated outposts of multimedia juggernauts, as well as some of this film's wider issues.
Pratt has done a lot of voice work. He's here as Garfield but similarly, digitally, earlier, as Mario. Between Guardians Of The Galaxy, Jurassic World, and The Lego Movie it's hard to estimate just how many action- and mini-figures are out there sounding like him in children's imaginations. Garfield ratchets that number up significantly, not least because it contains a near-obligatory nod to Macy's Thanksgiving parade and the plush cats held onto car windows by suction cups.

Steven Spielberg was instrumental in making Jurassic World (2015) the third-highest-grossing film at the time of its release. Spielberg, who served as an executive producer in the film, suggested the idea of a functional dinosaur park to the writers. The film has now dropped a few positions on the box office-based ranking but remains the best among the Jurassic Park sequels.

Working as a filmmaker, he has perfected the craft of grasping the fans’ intrigue in the best possible way. No matter the movie, he would know exactly how to grab their attention with ease.

Top Gun: Maverick‘s Glen Powell has been in the spotlight a lot lately for his projects and the projects that he’s been announced to be in. He’s got both Hit Man and Twisters this year alone. He’s also been reported to star in a remake of The Running Man from Edgar Wright, a thriller called Huntington, a legal drama titled Monsanto, and he’s recently been announced to be starring in an updated reimagining of the Warren Beatty film Heaven Can Wait. While he’s currently riding the wave of his Top Gun breakout with movies like Anyone But You, and despite having so much on his docket, Powell feels he’s earned the reputation of being picky after turning down some tentpole franchises.

Over the last century, the small but mighty island Republic of Malta has cemented itself as an appealing global destination for major film productions, with features such as Ridley Scott’s “Gladiator,” Robert Altaman’s “Popeye,” and Steven Spielberg’s “Munich” shooting there. Scott recently wrapped production on the long-awaited follow-up to his 2000 Roman epic, and the country is prepping for the upcoming shoot of the newest installment of the “Jurassic World” franchise.
Speaking with Variety, director and co-founder of Maltese service provider Valletta Pictures, Joshua Cassar Gaspar, said that the requests to film on the island have “come in like crazy” following the U.S. strikes in 2023. “It’s an incredibly busy time. The next two years will be huge for us.”
“The strikes didn’t affect us because the independent productions kept going, and many of us in Malta service TV shows, which were also unaffected,” Gaspar continued.

There’s something strange about the franchise reboot of the big orange tabby in The Garfield Movie. For one, the story completely sidelines the relationship between Jon Arbuckle and Garfield. Another issue is that all the characters are cardboard cutouts, and you know virtually nothing about them besides how Garfield came into Jon’s possession.
Perhaps most importantly, the trademark apathetic nature of the main character is non-existent. It’s as if the studios bought the brand name and turned the character into a clone of any fish-out-of-water animation adventure. That’s what’s wrong with The Garfield Movie. What makes the character great is washed away for a run-of-the-mill animated family film that you’ve seen nine lives over.
It’s purr-fectly predictable from start to its stagnant finish.

The summer movie season could use some help, and Chris Pratt might just be here to save the day. The "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Jurassic World" actor returns to the silver screen next weekend in "The Garfield Movie," an animated take on Jim Davis' orange, Monday-hating cat. For Sony Pictures, there is one big question; can some of that Pratt magic that made "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" ($1.36 billion worldwide) such a major hit last year rub off on this one? Even a fraction of that magic would be most welcome here.
"The Garfield Movie" is opening directly against George Miller's "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga." While the animated, family-friendly film would typically have the edge, it looks like "Furiosa" is going to win the weekend in the early going, with an opening between $46.5 and $59 million. But that doesn't mean this cat is out of luck, as Sony...

Okay, the big Summer blockbusters are coming in “hot”, but there’s no reason for the offbeat “indies” to sit on the sidelines till the Fall. At least that must be the intent of the fine folks at A24, who are still basking in the box office of their biggest hit, Civil War. Ah, but this one is a true “test” for the studio’s fervent fans. It’s a truly “out there” ode to several small screen touchstones for ” 90’s kids”. In fact, you could probably have an interesting game of “checking off” winks and nods to some “cult faves”. Oh, but there’s much more happening in this exploration of suburban teen life as its young hero seems to be energized by the tube’s warmth as he swears that I Saw The TV Glow.

Despite receiving negative reviews from critics, the 2023 animated Super Mario Bros. Movie was an unexpected blockbuster, as it went on to set the record for biggest global opening for an animated movie.

Steven Spielberg’s visionary approach to bringing the prehistoric era of roaring allosaurus and menacing tyrannosaurus alive met a disappointing end with Chris Pratt’s Jurassic World Dominion. The film’s billion-dollar potential led Colin Trevorrow to follow through with the threequel and almost tanked the entire franchise if not for Spielberg’s reputation that still remains attached to the IP.

Both of these titles have been a great success for Frontier. And that’s why a sequel was in high demand for so long. Frontier might have heard those demands, and Jurassic World Evolution 3 is on its way.

The Lincoln Lawyer star Manuel Garcia-Rulfo has been cast in a fresh take on the Jurassic World films. Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, who led the $3.96 billion trilogy, will not be returning for the new film, directed by Gareth Edwards. While other prominent stars like Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey are also part of the film, it is highly unlikely that the film will make money like Pratt’s films.
Manuel Garcia-Rulfo will replace Chris Pratt in the next film in the Jurassic Park series after Jurassic World: Dominion
When it comes to the box office numbers of films, it almost appears that the Guardians of the Galaxy star is a money magnet. He has been part of a number of billion-dollar-grossing projects in recent times, including last year’s film The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
