A Very Familiar Face May Be Back for Dune: Messiah
Chris Pratt is open to a return to Marvel. Daredevil: Born Again director Justin Benson discusses why the series worked for their grounded approach. Plus, an ominously vague tease for what’s coming on Severance. Spoilers now!
According to insider Jeff Sneider (via Den of Geek), Jason Momoa will return for Dune: Messiah as Duncan Idaho’s evil clone, Hayt.
Guardians of the GalaxyChris Pratt discussed his relatively loose terms for potentially returning as Star-Lord in the MCU in conversation with Comicbook.com.
Avengers: DoomsdayOf course, I would love to do it with James [Gunn], he’s got a conflict of interest that makes that impossible at the moment of course… I don’t know, I’m open to anything. It would have to be great storytelling and it would be really tough. He’s got big shoes to fill.
During a recent interview with THR, Joe Russo stated he believes Avengers: Doomsday will “challenge audiences” and be “very radical.”
The Rule of Jenny PenI think these movies are going to be a surprise to people. We found a way into the story that’s very exciting to us, but we think is very radical. I think it’s going to challenge audiences.
IFC Films has released a new trailer for the John Lithgow vs Geoffrey Rush evil puppet psychodrama, The Rule of Jenny Pen.
Daredevil: Born AgainSeries director Justin Benson spoke with Comicbook.com about how the show’s grounded approach let him and directing partner Aaron Moorhead return to their roots.
We Come in PeaceThat’s why this show is so comfortable, walking into it for us because obviously once you start getting a little bit more into the real world we all live in, very street level, that’s the world we shoot our own independent features in. So we’re able to like kind of dig back in our tool kit of our weird little indie sci-fi horror movies and pepper them in here and make something we’re extremely proud of.
Variety reports Frank Spotniz (The X-Files) and his production house Big Light have boarded the Swedish sci-fi miniseries, We Come in Peace, as a co-producer. The six-episode series is said to concern “the chaos unleashed when a mysterious jellyfish-like object appears in the sky over Stockholm, sparking widespread panic, fear and confusion among the population.”
The Dark TowerStephen King confirmed he’s writing material for Mike Flanagan’s The Dark Tower TV series in a recent interview with IGN.
SeveranceAll I can say is it’s happening. I am writing stuff now and I think that’s all I want to say because the next thing you know, I’ll stir up a bunch of stuff I don’t necessarily want to stir up yet. I’m in process right now, and to say too much feels like a jinx.
Spoiler TV has a synopsis for “Chikhai Bardo,” this week’s episode of Severance.
House of DavidThe origins of an old romance intersect with a deadly present threat.
Finally, humble shepherd David takes on the giant, Goliath, in his own TV series (!) at Amazon Prime- no spoilers here about how it ends, though. You’ll have to find out for yourself.
