We have still yet to get the first release for DC Studio’s Dcu, but with what we have seen so far with James Gunn’s Superman and now the full trailer for animated series Creature Commandos, they might actually be giving fans what they have long deserved.
James Gunn dropped the trailer for Creature Commandos this weekend, announcing on social media, “My pride in this project couldn’t be greater. A pleasure from start to finish with everyone involved. From DC Studios, here’s the full trailer for the beautiful, horrible and tragic” Creature Commandos. Below came the trailer itself, which features one badass opening line from Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller: “The United States is in the business of saving the damn world by any means possible…Congress said we can’t use human prisoners…These assholes aren’t human.”

James Gunn and the cast of his upcoming Max animated series Creature Commandos took to the stage at New York Comic Con on Saturday, promising a new DC Universe entry that is “something beyond what any of us expected.”
The series’ executive producer and writer was joined at the packed panel by fellow executive producer Dean Lorey, as well as voice cast members Frank Grillo (Rick Flag Sr.), David Harbour (Frankenstein), Zoë Chao (Nina Mazursky), Steve Agee (Economos), Maria Bakalova (Princess Ilana), Alan Tudyk (Dr. Phosphorus) and Sean Gunn (GI Robot and Weasel) for a series trailer and a conversation that teased the first installment in the new Gunn and Peter Safran-led DC Universe.

DC Studios has released a new trailer for Creature Commandos at New York Comic Con which offers us a much better idea of what to expect from both the Max animated series and the new Dcu.
It starts by explaining the premise of the show as Amanda Waller, no longer allowed to assemble human prisoners for Task Force X, rounds up these creatures to form a new team overseen by Rick Flag Sr. We're introduced to each member of the team and get a first look at Wonder Woman villain Circe, Creature Commandos' big bad.
Another major talking point is the presence of Batman bad guy Clayface. He looks very comic-accurate and, with James Gunn confirming we'll see these characters in future live-action projects, this must mean the Dcu's Dark Knight has crossed paths with the shape-shifting rogue.

Warning: Contains spoilers for Season One of Shrinking
AppleTV+’s Shrinking, which returns for its second season today, has a provocative premise: Would clients actually be better off if their therapists decided not to lead them toward the insights that would improve their lives, but rather just told them straight up what to do?
The show’s seeming position on this is somewhat inconsistent. Most patients are portrayed thriving when their unorthodox therapist Jimmy (Jason Segel) bosses them around. But Season One ends with therapy client Grace (Heidi Gardner) pushing her emotionally abusive husband off a cliff, after telling Jimmy about her fantasy of doing that, to Jimmy’s enthusiastic affirmation; he’s under the impression that she’s being hyperbolic, but still! You might think a connection to the criminal case might lead Jimmy to abandon his new proactivity; you’d be wrong.
But, all of that is beside my point,...

Anyone shopping for a home knows how brutal the real estate market can be. You want the right neighborhood, school district, tax situation, and other factors to avoid purchasing a lemon of a home.

Things could get ugly quickly and often do. In Netflix‘s No Good Deed teaser trailer, everyone falls in love with the same house and will do whatever they can to get it.
Here’s the official synopsis for No Good Deed courtesy of Netflix:

The real estate market is killer — and perhaps in more ways than one on “No Good Deed.” The new series, from “Dead to Me” creator Liz Feldman, will premiere with all eight episodes on Thursday, Dec. 12, Netflix revealed Monday, along with a teaser.
“No Good Deed” stars Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrow as empty-nesters Paul and Lydia, respectively, who are selling their 1920s Spanish-style villa in Los Feliz, Calif. Three families are itching to buy the home, which harbors some “dark and dangerous secrets,” per the logline, that Paul and Lydia may not be able to confront themselves.
The ensemble cast includes Feldman’s “Dead to Me” star Linda Cardellini, along with O-t Fagbenle, Abbi Jacobson, Denis Leary, Poppy Liu, Teyonah Parris, and Luke Wilson. Feldman, who directed two episodes, serves as executive producer alongside Silver Tree, who directed the other six, and Christie Smith, Jessica Elbaum and Will Ferrell of Gloria Sanchez Productions.

It may not be the high school reunion we’ve wanted, but Freaks and Geeks creator Paul Feig, producer Judd Apatow, writer/star of the show Seth Rogen and other cast members pay tribute to the nostalgic show that is still viewed as gone too soon by many fans — old and new — as the show would only last one season. The NBC dramedy series was a high school show set in the 80s and featured a cast that would go on to become notable names in future projects, including Linda Cardellini, James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jason Segel, John Francis Daley, Samm Levine, Martin Starr, and Busy Phillipps.
Deadline now reports that the show’s creator, producer and stars are looking back and celebrating its impact as it turns 25. Feig shared some throwback pictures on Instagram with the caption, “Freaks & Geeks premiered 25 years ago today on @nbc. It was one...

After three back-to-back “Halloween” movies and another stint in horror with “The Exorcist: Believer,” David Gordon Green was ready to take a break from the genre and return to his heartfelt roots for “Nutcrackers,” starring Ben Stiller and Linda Cardellini. The film follows Stiller’s character abruptly having to take care of his sister’s four boys after a terrible accident.
“This movie is a lot of things,” Green told IndieWire on the Toronto International Film Festival premiere red carpet. “It’s a comedy, it’s a drama, it’s a horror movie. But for me, it’s a reason to dance, you know, I just wanted to start moving, move my body a little bit, and get out to the farm and kick some pig shit.”

In what seems almost like a cleansing ritual after wrestling with studio horror franchises, David Gordon Green’s Nutcrackers sees the director return closer to his indie roots, observing characters that sprout organically from their rural or small-town environments. This cute fish-out-of-water comedy about the unexpected rewards of a found family tries to approximate the naturalism, lyricism and raw emotion of Green’s early works George Washington and All the Real Girls, but it’s too predictably sentimental to have a comparable effect.
The idea came from Green meeting the four spirited young sons of an old friend, and Leland Douglas’ screenplay appears to allow latitude for semi-improvisation from those boys, playing versions of themselves. That gives the film a disarming sincerity that dovetails with Ben Stiller’s sensitive, understated performance as an uptight Chicagoan thrust into the inconvenient role of parent. But the abundance of montages and exuberant slo-mo...

No doubt, the Janson brothers — Homer, Ulysses, Atlas and Arlo — are lovely, well-behaved kids in real life. Few would say the same about the undisciplined orphans these four boys play in director David Gordon Green’s odd-choice Toronto Film Festival opener, “Nutcrackers”: a near-feral wolfpack who depend on their uptight uncle, Michael Maxwell (Ben Stiller), to spare them the indignity of an orphanage after their parents die in a car accident.
A big-city, fancy-shoes sort of guy, Michael shows up at his late sister’s farmhouse driving a yellow Porsche and promptly steps in a fresh pile of dung. Christmas is right around the corner, and Michael has committed a few days to sorting out the estate — a task that includes trying to get the Kicklighter boys adopted. Then it’s back to Chicago, where a career-defining real estate deal is about to close.

Ben Stiller just got his comedy mojo back in the most unexpected of places.
Nutcrackers, the official opening-night film of the 2024 Toronto Film Festival, is not the kind of movie you expect to see at serious film festivals, which tend to go for darker or less obviously commercial fare. So it is a bit of a surprise to see TIFF launching with a purely entertaining and heartwarming family holiday movie that will make you laugh, cry and walk out feeling good. Nothing wrong with that.
This is the kind of movie Hollywood used to deliver all the time but has clearly forgotten how to make — until now. Among the inspirations for director David Gordon Green were The Bad News Bears, Six Pack, Uncle Buck and Overboard. You might expect John Hughes was back from the dead, along with this genre. I would go back even further to the ’50s and ’60s,...

There was a time when Ben Stiller might have starred in a movie like “Nutcrackers,” full of fart jokes and poop jokes and unruly kids. And there was a time when David Gordon Green might have directed a movie like this, back before he veered into three films in the rebooted “Halloween” franchise followed by “The Exorcist: Believer.”
But on opening night of the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival, that time came again for Stiller and Green in “Nutcrackers,” the movie that found both men in territory that had grown unfamiliar for them in recent years.
“I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be radical if you made a movie without viciousness or cynicism?’” Green told the audience at the Princess of Wales Theatre for the first of two opening-night screenings on Thursday. To do so, he crafted a story that sounds like a gender-swapped, romance-deprived version of about 85% of all the Hallmark...

David Gordon Green has never shied away from wearing his influences on his sleeve: There’s little question his recent trio of “Halloween” reboots were beholden to the original Michael Myers features (how couldn’t they be?) and his lighter features have always smacked of the classic comedies of his youth. For his latest film — and his first feature after that run of “Halloween” films and his one-shot of “The Exorcist” — the indie darling is again turning to some of the films that he built his taste on, the “Uncle Buck” and “Home Alone” types, the “Six Pack” joints, the kind of stuff we don’t get so much of anymore.
Billed as a “heartfelt comedy,” Green’s latest — “Nutcrackers,” which just opened this year’s Toronto International Film Festival, where it is looking for distribution — is somehow a classic Green offering and another swerve in a career built on them.

The premiere of Nutcrackers starring Ben Stiller and Linda Cardellini kicked of the 2024 Toronto Film Festival Thursday night, with several other actors in attendance on the red carpet.
The film centers Stiller’s Mike, a no-nonsense workaholic who takes over caregiving for his orphaned nephews that challenge his straig-laced living style. Working to find them a new home after their parents die in a car accident, Mike is forced to adjust to farm life before he realizes he may find a home with his nephews. This marks Stiller’s first movie role in seven years following 2017’s The Meyerowitz Stories and Brad’s Status. In between those and Nutcrackers, Stiller has spent time directing and producing 2018’s miniseries Escape at Dannemora and Apple’s sci-fi thriller show Severance, which has a second season arriving in January 2025.
