The hype surrounding 28 Days Later, and its upcoming legacy-quel, is a pretty powerful point of interest on the 2025 movie schedule. With what we know about 28 Years Later ties into Cillian Murphy’s debunked trailer appearance getting fans to talk about just how, or when, the iconic Jim will return, it’s been a pretty

The Italian box office softened by 0.4% in 2024 for an overall gross of $508M, on the back of a 1.3% dip in spectators to 69.7M, according to data detailed by Italy’s box office data monitor Cinetel on Thursday.

Denis Villeneuve‘s pair of Dune movies (which are streaming with a Max subscription) are already being considered some of the best sci-fi movies of all time. The pair of films is wildly popular, and fans are eager for a third movie following Dune Part Two‘s ending. While the filmmaker originally intended to do have a

The Pacific Palisades wildfire had led to roughly ten cinema closures in Los Angeles, the nation’s No. 1 box office capital. Of those shuttered effective today are the AMC Americana in Glendale, the AMC Universal City Walk (the Uni Theme Park is closed today), AMC Topanga 12, Regal Sherman Oaks, the iPic Pasadena, and the

In a time when CGI regularly recreates the worlds we see on our big screens, one wouldn’t be surprised to see director Ridley Scott bringing Rome’s Colosseum to life through computer screens, but he went greatly practical instead. The filmmaker took the Gladiator II cast to Malta, Morocco and other locations during the filming of

The award shows that have aired on the 2025 TV schedule have been some for the books. At the Golden Globes, we got Nikki Glaser crushing it as host, that weird reunion between the Rock and Vin Diesel, and even the debut of Zendaya’s reported engagement ring. Then, and more importantly for this story, things

Letterbox, the cinephile social platform that’s become perhaps the most effective tool for independent film in a landscape where moviegoers are hard to reach, hit 17 million members in 2024. That’s a big jump from 11.4 million at the end of 2023 and 1.8 million in 2020, according to the New Zealand-based platform’s 2024 Year

It’s been less than a full day since a small brush fire in the Pacific Palisades area of Southern California was first recognized, and even less since that fire (and three other smaller fires in the area) exploded in size and began burning out of control.

After this weekend’s 2025 Golden Globe winners were revealed and as we wait for more award shows honoring 2024’s best to air on the 2025 TV schedule, there’s been a lot of chatter about Zoe Saldaña’s historic win. During the ceremony, she made history by becoming the first Dominican Golden Globe winner for her role

Warning: SPOILERS for Nosferatu are ahead! Nosferatu is one of the most acclaimed horror movies in recent memory, and I’m certainly one of the people singing its praises alongside CinemaBlend’s own Nosferatu review. I was captivated by how well-done the movie is, especially as someone largely familiar with the character due to SpongeBob Squarepants. That

Gypsy got back on track and Wicked stayed in the stratosphere during New Year’s week, with most of Broadway‘s 33 shows posting strong numbers even while dropping down from the previous (and very lucrative) Christmas week figures. With Audra McDonald back in action after a week of illness that prompted the cancellation of all but

Ari Aster’s folk horror film Midsommar truly is one of those movies you can only watch once following a young woman and her boyfriend drawn into a violent cult. Even when the A24 movie was first screened, people watching it were dropping F-bombs due to its disturbing nature. Midsommar’s lead, Florence Pugh, says she felt

Searchlight’s Golden Globe winning A Real Pain will stream on Hulu on Jan. 16. Last night, the pic’s co-star Kieran Culkin won Best Supporting Actor Film at the Globes ceremony in the Jesse Eisenberg starring, written and directed feature. The movie delves into the universal themes of cultural heritage, acceptance and family relationships while set

The 2025 movie schedule is a big one. The year kicks off with The Last Showgirl, starring Pamela Anderson and Jamie Lee Curtis. Surprisingly though, the incredible model and actress revealed she was intimidated to meet the OG Scream Queen of our time. That is, until Curtis said one thing to Anderson that made all

As we get closer to the release of Michael, the Michael Jackson biopic directed by Antoine Fuqua, more behind-the-scenes tidbits from the film are being revealed. Details on the cast and crew are known and, with that, this production has the potential to be a solid movie. Among the ensemble is Colman Domingo, who’s playing

This is shaping up to be an unusual, and unpredictable, awards season. There are several films in contention for the top prizes when the Academy Awards air in March, and dutiful Oscar pundits have been tracking the recognitions handed out by critics groups and organizations as 2024 drew to a close. Now that we are

An effusive Jon M. Chu accepted the Golden Globe for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement for Wicked this evening with the director praising fans and enthusing, “It shows us how important making this stuff is — in a time when pessimism and cynicism sort of rule the planet right now — that we can still

Remember the Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson Fast & Furious beef? It’s been a long time since we’ve heard anything about whether the two action stars are friends or foes, but I definitely wasn’t expecting the 2025 Golden Globes to be the place for them to interact. At least I have the internet to validate

After eight years of divorce proceedings, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reached a settlement this past week. Details of their financial determinations and custody arrangements have not been disclosed. However, per reports, all parties involved are reportedly ready to move on. In the aftermath of the settlement, alleged details have been reported from insiders regarding

Indie coin continues to spread throughout the land for the first weekend of 2025 and in the crush of awards season with the Golden Globes just hours away and Oscar nominations coming Jan. 17, dates that have informed rather successful debuts for a number of critically acclaimed films. There are serious bucks here but also

There’s the business of making movies and then there’s the business of marketing movies. Things seem to have gone well on both fronts for A Complete Unknown, as Timothée Chalamet’s Bob Dylan movie is performing well at the box office and earning rave reviews from critics and fans. That doesn’t mean, however, that the stars

If anyone is a good guest to have on a talk show, it’s Nicholas Hoult. The Renfield actor always has crazy onset stories, like that time he casually told Seth Meyers he was chased by wolves. So naturally, he recently dropped lore about the time he had to eat fake ice cream for a movie,

I may be able to keep up to date on 2025 movies, but I’ll be honest, I’ve been having a hard time getting behind a ton of recent denim trends. I was very happy when we as a society transitioned from the low-cut skinny jeans to high-rise straight-leg jeans, but I’ve completely decided not to

I have a confession: I’m a Titanic superfan who watches the James Cameron film at least once a year. But for the last 10 or so of those viewings, I’ve straight up just skipped the disaster portion of the movie, preferring an alternate reality in which Rose and Jack are still busy planning their future

FRIDAY AFTERNOON UPDATE: It’s a better first weekend of the year than last year with Disney’s Mufasa and Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3 continuing their tussle into their third frames, $23M-$24M to $20M. In regards to 3-day weekends, this is the first No. 1 win for Mufasa. Sonic 3 won the first two 3-day weekends

As we enter a new year of upcoming horror movies, it’s going to be real hard for other releases to measure up to the violent images we’re still replaying in our heads from The Substance. Along with the movie earning praise from critics and being among the 2025 Golden Globe nominations, the movie’s lead, Demi

Cameron Diaz is set to be in one of the first 2025 movies, Back In Action, bringing her out of her retirement from acting.

As awards season heats up, From Ground Zero, Palestine’s Oscar entry that’s on the short list for Best International Feature, debuts at about 70 AMC locations in top 20 markets and select arthouses including the Quad in New York and Laemmle Royal in LA.
