Keke Palmer and Angela Bassett have been compared for some time now.

Over the years, if you’ve watched the Marvel movies in order, you’ve seen Chris Hemsworth maintain an impeccable physique as the God of Thunder. Clearly, the actor behind the self-proclaimed “strongest Avenger” is no stranger to intense workouts and training regimes.

It was fascinating to see my good colleague Valerie Complex describe, in her review of the Antoine Fuqua/Will Smith slavery drama Emancipation, having almost walked out of the film, not because it was unworthy, but because she found the depiction of Black suffering and death almost too much to watch. In the end, Complex stuck
Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler’s working relationship has continued to flourish years after their breakthrough film Fruitvale Station.

Squeezed in between his minor appearance as Dexter Tolliver in Suicide Squad and playing Red Guardian in Black Widow, Stranger Things’ David Harbour scored his first leading role in a comic book movie via 2019’s Hellboy.

Adam Sandler is no stranger to criticism.

Here’s another bucket of cold water for the budding romance between Netflix and exhibitors.
