Fixing his smile was just one thing Ben Affleck had to transform for Michael Bay’s film Armageddon. It’s not often discussed, but the beauty standards for male actors in Hollywood are just as skewed. The transformation demanded of Affleck for this movie went beyond just his appearance.

His iconic boy-next-door look, which had endeared him to audiences, was deemed too ordinary for a film about an apocalyptic threat. He had to adopt a look that was equally extraordinary, one that could match this out-of-this-world film.

Landing the lead role in a Hollywood blockbuster often means more than just acing the lines, especially when one is working with a director like Michael Bay, who’s as obsessed with aesthetics.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the jungle!
Columbia Pictures is planning to squeeze new life out of the Anaconda franchise, with The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent director Tom Gormican set to helm a reimagining of the 1997 giant snake horror movie.
Gormican will also co-write the script with collaborator Kevin Etten.
The project is said to have been in development at the studio since early 2023, and has gone through numerous rewrites as the "filmmaker and Columbia tried to find the right balance of tones."
It sounds like this new take on the creature feature is going to be more of a meta comedy, as "a group of friends facing mid-life crises who are remaking their favorite movie from their youth head to the rainforest, only to find themselves in a fight for their lives against natural disasters, giant snakes and violent criminals."

Paul Rudd and Jack Black are set to headline a reboot of the Anaconda movie franchise, as they seek to become snake fodder.
It looks like we may be getting another Anaconda film. You could probably have gleamed that from the headline though, to be fair.
While we could make a clever joke about the seemingly endless cycle of reboots, remakes and legacy sequels being somewhat akin to a snake eating its own tail, there’ll certainly be plenty of folks out there that that wish that there had been more Anaconda films, despite the series’ slide into made-for-television ignominy.
The first Anaconda released in 1997 and featured several stars with careers on the rise including Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson and Ice Cube. And let’s not forget that Jon Voight added his talents to the project as well. It was barmy fun, following ‘a film crew that is taken hostage by an insane hunter,...

Here's some rather surprising but nonetheless exciting news. According to a new report from The Hollywood Reporter, Paul Rudd and Jack Black might be in talks to star in a remake of the 1997 horror creature feature Anaconda.
Everything is very much still in development and the "rumors" stage, but the outlet says the remake would focus on an older group of friends remaking one of their favorite films from their younger days in the hopes of recapturing their youth amid facing mid-life crises. Of course, once they arrive at their rainforest destination, the friends "find themselves in a fight for their lives against natural disasters, giant snakes, and violent criminals."
It sounds like there are two characters fleshed out, one a director-turned-wedding-videographer feeling stuck in their job and the other a Hollywood actor aspiring for greater work than the cop procedural series he was previously cast in. Black was reportedly...

Gormican, who helmed the Nicolas Cage-starring meta movie “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent” and penned “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F,” co-wrote and will direct the new “Anaconda” movie, which is said to put a more comedic spin on the serpentine story. Kevin Etten is the co-writer.

The thriller was a surprise hit, earning $136 million at the global box office and spawning four sequels.

The film isn’t expected to be a sequel or a straight remake, but instead a reimagining of the original ’90s film, which grossed roughly $137 million at the box office worldwide and was disparaged by critics and audiences alike at the time.
Released in 1997, “Anaconda” starred Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube and Jon Voight.

Paul Rudd and Jack Black might be heading to the jungle. Deadline is hearing that while no deal is done, the two are in early talks to star in new take on Anaconda at Sony Pictures. The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent writers Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten penned the script, with Gormican planning to direct. Brad Fuller and Andrew Form are producing through Fully Formed banner.
The studio had no comment.
The original 1997 thriller starred Jennifer Lopez, Jon Voight, Owen Wilson and Ice Cube and followed a National Geographic-esque film crew that is taken hostage by an insane hunter, who forces them along on his quest to capture the world’s largest and deadliest snake, an anaconda. The film overperformed at the box office, bringing in $145 million globally including $65 million domestically. It also provided Lopez and Cube with a box office hit early in their careers.

Tom Holland may have earned his title as Marvel's least tight-lipped star, but the spoiler-happy "Spider-Man" actor is far from the only cast member in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to have let something slip over the years. Mark Ruffalo accidentally livestreamed the opening scenes of "Thor: Ragnarok" to Instagram at its world premiere, Gwyneth Paltrow told a magazine that Tony and Pepper would be married with a kid ahead of "Avengers: Endgame," and Owen Wilson once received a mysterious text message notifying him he'd crossed a line when sharing "Loki" scoops with the press.
Despite his enduring star power, "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" actor Kurt Russell apparently wasn't immune from strict rules about sharing spoilers, but it didn't stop him from giving his family a sneak peek of the movie.

Vince Vaughn is convinced studios want to “overthink” comedies nowadays, especially ones without an IP to fall back on.
The actor — who has appeared in iconic original films such as “Wedding Crashers,” “Old School,” and “Swingers” — explained why there is a lack of modern R-rated comedies in theaters.
“[Studios] just overthink it,” Vaughn said during First We Feast’s “Hot Ones” series. “And it’s like, it’s crazy, you get these rules, like, if you did geometry, and you said 87 degrees was a right angle, then all your answers are messed up, instead of 90 degrees. So there became some idea or concept, like, they would say something like, ‘You have to have an IP.'”
He continued, “The people in charge don’t want to get fired more so than they’re looking to do something great, so they want to kind of follow a set of rules that somehow get set in stone,...

The Children, Eleanor!
We’ve spent the month of July discussing the badass babes of Robert Rodriguez’s Planet Terror (listen), the queer undertones of Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut (listen), and the “very bad weather” of Jan de Bont‘s 1996 tornado film, Twister (listen).
Now we’re wrapping up our de Bont double bill with his less successful 1999 special effects remake, The Haunting!
In the film, sheltered Eleanor (Lili Taylor) is recruited for a dubious insomnia study at the infamous Hill House by questionable doctor David Marrow (Liam Neeson). Along with bisexual Theo (Catherine Zeta-Taylor) and horny Luke (Owen Wilson), Nell is terrorized by annoying ghost children and the monstrous owner of the house, Hugh Crain (Charles Gunning).
As the spectral hauntings become more and more severe, Nell must uncover her tenuous connection to the previous victims before the terrible CGI swallows her and the other participants whole.

As the spectral hauntings become more and more severe, Nell must uncover her tenuous connection to the previous victims before the terrible CGI swallows her and the other participants whole.

Spoilers for "Deadpool & Wolverine" follow.
"Deadpool & Wolverine" builds on the Disney+ series "Loki," incorporating multiversal watchdogs the Tva (Time Variance Authority) and sending its heroes into the Void, a wasteland where those from "pruned" timelines go for final disposal.
The ruler of the Void is Cassandra Nova (Emma Corrin), mutant super-villainess and evil twin of Professor X, but she's only one half of the movie's big bads. The other is rogue Tva agent Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen), who wants to destroy Wade Wilson's (Ryan Reynolds) timeline because he can't be bothered with monitoring it.
Macfadyen plays Paradox like he did Tom Wambsgans on "Succession," though this time with his natural British accent. Paradox definitely seems like a chap who'd use a Tva agent or two as a human footstool. He's a soulless middle manager who smiles while crushing others, but in the end his ambition exceeds his competence,...

The Time Variance Authority is the rule of temporal law in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and they have a big role to play in “Deadpool & Wolverine.”
The Tva is an organization that exists outside of time and space and has charged itself with maintaining the Sacred Timeline in the MCU and “pruning” branches that could create an alternate timeline. The bureaucratic time cops have exclusively appeared in Seasons 1 and 2 of “Loki” but are making the jump to MCU films with “Deadpool & Wolverine.”
Here’s what you need to know about the Tva’s creation and history leading up to their latest appearance.
The Multiversal War
Long before the creation of the Time Variance Authority, a 31st-century variant of He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors) named Nathaniel Richards discovered the existence of other timelines and universes. At the same time, variants of this variant were also learning about the Multiverse...

Since the very first trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine, MCU fans have been curious about the role of a unique agency. The Time Variance Authority, or Tva, was introduced in Loki as the multiverse police. The group, with agents depicted by Owen Wilson and Wunmi Mosaku, became the centerpiece of Loki and allowed for some incredible storytelling opportunities. With the Tva arriving on the big screen in earnest, we’re breaking down what you need to know about the group.
The Tva at the End of Loki
Throughout Loki, the Tva served as a delivery vehicle for Kang-related storytelling. In Season 1, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) faced off against “He Who Remains” (Jonathan Majors). That Kang variant set up the multiverse in a way that destroyed all of existence with his death.
The results of that plan come to fruition in Season 2. Loki eventually sacrifices his...

On the heels of yesterday's final trailer, Marvel Studios has released another TV spot for Deadpool and Wolverine, and while this one doesn't feature any big reveals, it does include quite a bit of new footage.
The promo spotlights more banter between Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) and Logan (Hugh Jackman), a shot of Dogpool leaping into The Merc With a Mouth's arms, and more. Right at the end, we also get an extended look at Deadpool in the Tva as he teases one of the agents about having a crush on him.
Spoilers ahead.
Speaking of the Tva, there is another TV spot doing the rounds (it was briefly online before the video was deleted) which confirms a recent rumor that Loki's Hunter B-15 (Wunmi Mosaku) will appear in the movie. This may add credence to reports that Owen Wilson's Mobius will also have a role.
