“Remember, gentlemen,” says Henry Cavill’s Gus March-Phillipps in The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare, “try to have fun.” It is an instructive line. This is a very silly kind of war film, an action comedy with only a tangential, Wikipedia-skim-read level of historical reality. It is extremely loosely based on the real Operation Postmaster, the daring off-books operation which saw a crack team of commandos steal enemy warships from the Germans.
In the midst of a prolific streak, we find director Guy Ritchie here in less geezer-gangster mood, more The Man From U.N.C.L.E. mode. Not to say that there aren’t Ritchie-isms to be found. The colourful ensemble is introduced with a montage you could describe as Snatch-ian, introducing characters such as Henry Golding’s Freddy ‘Frogman’ Alvarez, or Alan Ritchson’s hard bastard Anders Lassen.

Hugh Jackman has been playing Wolverine for over two decades at this stage, appearing in 10 movies as the fan-favorite mutant. James Mangold's Logan was supposed to mark the actor's final time in the claws and mutton-chops, but he was convinced to reprise the role - and make his MCU debut - for Deadpool and Wolverine.
So, now that Jackman is officially part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will he be staying on as Wolverine, or will a new actor take over for Marvel Studios' planned X-Men reboot?
Kevin Feige wasn't about to give any definitive answers during an interview with Discussing Film, but he did confirm that someone else will replace Jackman as the character eventually - even though there are "no immediate plans" in place.
"Yes. You know, Marvel is celebrating its 85th anniversary later this summer. That’s just the first 85 years, and Disney just celebrated 100 years as well.

Henry Cavill is famous for morphing his body into whatever role he is playing. Since most of his roles are quite physically challenging, he has no choice but to frequently spend hours in the gym, and from the conversations he has about the topic, he would not have it any other way. Michael Fassbender is in a similar boat as the Superman actor, having played his fair share of physically challenging roles.

Hugh Jackman has portrayed Wolverine for 24 years, making his debut in the 2000 film X-Men and continuing to appear in the franchise for decades.
Although Logan, released in 2017, was intended to be Wolverine’s farewell, featuring the character’s death, Jackman has since confirmed multiple times that this film marked the end of his tenure as Wolverine.
When Jackman announced his return to the role for Deadpool & Wolverine, fans were thrilled. This appearance won’t alter Wolverine’s fate as depicted in Logan; instead, it will feature a variant of the character. Despite Kevin Feige’s efforts to persuade Jackman against returning, the compelling story pitched by Reynolds and Jackman convinced him that it wouldn’t compromise the original Wolverine’s character arc.
The question now is whether Jackman will continue portraying Wolverine in the MCU’s future projects, especially with the new era of mutants beginning in the MCU.

Hugh Jackman has been playing the role of Wolverine for 24 years at this point. The actor first appeared as popular X-Men in ‘X-Men’ released in 2000, and has continually made appearances in the movie franchise for decades.
His character’s sendoff was supposed to be ‘Logan’ released in 2017, the movie sees Wolverine dying and that was seemingly the end for the actor, which he confirmed several times.
When Jackman confirmed that he is returning to the role once more to take part in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ fans were elated. The appearance won’t change the fate of the character in ‘Logan,’ instead we will be watching a Wolverine variant. Feige himself tried to dissuade Jackman from returning to the role, but alas, the story that Reynolds and Jackman pitched was so good, that it did not bring under question the original Wolverine’s character arc.

Hugh Jackman has played Wolverine for over 24 years since the first X-Men film. The actor was not even the first choice for the role but he made the role iconic and eventually became one of the greatest superhero castings ever. Deadpool & Wolverine will be the 10th time that Jackman will be playing the character.

Much like his films that are known to create a chasm between DC fans, Zack Snyder’s casting choices bore a similar effect — case in point, Ben Affleck’s Batman.

The Good Will Hunting Star‘s rendition of the Caped Crusader had viewers split from the get-go. While many lauded the playboy douche x man-tormented-by-his-demons persona that Affleck portrayed so effortlessly, others found it difficult to overlook the remorseless killing machine-esque aspect of his character. This is the crime-fighting vigilante we’re talking about, after all.
But there’s one thing fans appear to be unanimous about — Batman’s shocking, borderline outlandish plot armor.

Nowadays, it is hard not to run into a Marvel fan when you are adventuring in everyday life. Slowly but surely, Marvel has built up its fanbase to insane levels. It seems that most moviegoers are obsessed with the MCU and the movies found within it. Marvel’s newest release, ‘Thor: Love and Thunder’, came out with mediocre critical reviews, but the Marvel fan base loved it as usual. One thing I and other critics noticed about this new Marvel film was that it seemed to follow Marvel’s closely held formula. This formula has been a part of Marvel and the MCU from the start and has recently grown into Marvel’s strongest weapon and also its biggest weakness.

WWE achieved the height of its popularity in the late ’90s and early 2000s during what became known as the Attitude Era. This period within the sports entertainment powerhouse continued to deviate from the “sports” based aspect of pro wrestling which was made famous from the days of the territories and more into the “entertainment” part. However, what catapulted the company to mainstream popularity was the believability of many of their biggest players, namely “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the two biggest stars in the history of pro wrestling. People understood the business was a work (meaning “fake” in wrestling terms), but they had stars they could believe in who were involved in conflict they could buy because the stars themselves lived their wrestling personas 24/7. While the rest of the 2000s saw some relative success for the WWE, the company ratings, viewership numbers, and ticket sales have plummeted ever since.

Have you ever caught a drape of talent so rich that it grasps your imagination and refuses to let go? Well, that’s precisely the spectacle put on by the ensemble cast in Ryan Condal & George R. R. Martin’s House of the Dragon, which has been nothing short of stellar.
This cast has been further brightened by Milly Alcock, who, after a mesmerizing portrayal of Rhaenyra Targaryen that bewitched viewers, is soaring high to take the mantle of Supergirl in James Gunn’s burgeoning Dcu. Embodying the fierce and young Princess Rhaenyra in the first season of HBO’s spellbinding spinoff, this Australian actress, 24, has elevated the bar for what we have come to expect from fantasy drama on TV.

The story of Henry Cavill is simultaneously one of the nicest as well as upsetting to ever exist in Hollywood. The actor has been blessed just as much as he has been cursed, and not just in terms of his career or looks. Cavill’s entire existence is a massive black hole of paradox and it is a wonder how he continues to be adored on such a level by the fans.

Stardust, from director Matthew Vaughn, is making its 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray debut this autumn – more details on the release here.
After years of producing, Matthew Vaughn made the jump to feature directing with the impressive Layer Cake, released in 2004.
Yet his next feature was a very deliberate step in the right direction, and arguably stands as the finest movie Vaughn has directed to date. It’s 2007’s delightful fantasy adventure Stardust, a movie that brings together Claire Danes, Charlie Cox, Michelle Pfeiffer, ‘and’ Mark Strong, Rupert Everett, Peter O’Toole, a young Henry Cavill, and Sienna Miller.
Based on Neil Gaiman’s story, it was a relatively expensive movie at the time, particular for a British film, with a bill approaching $80m. Its box office return of $137m globally wasn’t enough to trigger a hoped-for sequel, and Vaughn would instead go off to pursue Kick-Ass instead.

Midway through The Man from U.N.C.L.E., the normally unflappable Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) finds himself in an electric chair about to be tortured by Rudi (Sylvester Groth), a scientist who worked for the Nazis and is now in cahoots with super-villain Victoria (Elizabeth Debicki). Before Rudi is about to flip the switch, though, he dives into a monologue, complete with a “once upon a time” beginning, in which he brags about the human experiments he conducted as a scientist during the war, with Napoleon about to be his latest test subject.

Henry Cavill may be one of the most endearing muscle-men in all of Hollywood’s entertainment industry, but there are still a lot of sides to him that are yet to be explored. For instance, although he may not seem like it from the handsome jock-like persona people tend to assume of him from the outside, he is actually a major geeky nerd when it comes to video games and stuff.

But while his being a nerd is all fair and good, what is actually provoking are the vile accusations some critics have been lauding him with, deeming him a ‘sexist.’ Of course, these accusations couldn’t be farther from the truth, and the proof for this is all the times Cavill showed the utmost respect to his female co-stars while no one was watching.

Armie Hammer was once seen as one of the most promising stars in Hollywood. His acting quips in films like The Social Network and Call Me By Your Name brought him wider recognition. Unfortunately, the fame was shortlived due to several allegations of s*xual abuse and cannibalism brought against him in 2021.

Henry Cavill is known for many things in the film industry. He is known for his talent, his ability to blend into any role, the unjust behavior of the industry towards him, and, from a more objective and surface-level perspective, his good looks. It is the former out of all them that got a lot of attention in 2013, after the release of the trailer for Man of Steel. The world could not fathom his beauty and loved to talk about it at every given opportunity.
Henry Cavill was recently seen in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare | Lionsgate
Naturally, the topic was brought up frequently during the press promotion of the film. No one would expect Cavill to be hated, simply because of his popularity. However, an interviewer said exactly this to the actor during a conversation, and his reaction is priceless.

Jack Quaid has made a name for himself after playing Hughie Campbell in The Boys. Besides attracting widespread fame for his role in the satirical show, the actor also earned a spot in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer. The actor has recently revealed in an interview that he also auditioned for the role of Superman in James Gunn’s upcoming Dcu release.

As strange as it may feel to imagine Hughie Campbell in the iconic Red and Blue suit, Jack Quaid admitted that he knew the result, but still wanted to try it out. Looks like the actor was not satisfied with only a voice role, especially after his take on the superhero in the animated My Adventures with Superman received critical appreciation.

David Corenswet is about to become a massive movie star. The "Pearl" and "The Greatest Hits" actor is about to be Clark Kent in director James Gunn's "Superman," which is due to hit theaters next summer. We recently got a look at Corenswet suited up as Superman and it instantly took him to another level of stardom. Before he makes his mark on the DC Universe, he's starring in another big blockbuster in the form of "Twisters." Serving as a standalone sequel to the 1996 classic blockbuster "Twister," it's one of the biggest movies of summer 2024.
Directed by Lee Isaac Chung ("Minari"), on paper, "Twisters" couldn't be more different than "Superman." One deals with exaggerated versions of natural disasters, while the other is a superhero movie centered on otherworldly beings. However, as Chung recently explained to The Hollywood Reporter, Corenswet did bring a little bit of Supes with him to this film's set.

While his chiseled features and star-studded persona are one thing that sets him apart from everyone else, Henry Cavill is also rather famous for his muscular physique. With a body like one of those Olympians in ancient Greek mythology, he is easily one of the most ripped celebrities in all of Hollywood and could put up a fair competition in front of the hunkiest of actors.

However, as magnificent as he looks with this physique of his (as was especially seen in Man of Steel), there are people from his family who can make even his gigantic self look small in front of them. These people are his very own four brothers, i.e. Piers, Niki, Simon, and Charles!

Ever since her career began back in the late 2000s, Gal Gadot has bagged a multiplicity of stellar roles that have gone down her resume as some of the most iconic ones of all time. At the same time, she has also lost out on multiple roles, including one that could have established her as a major lead character in one of the greatest spy franchises of all time.

As she shared herself, Gadot was originally wanted by a casting director who was looking for actresses who could play a Bond girl. However, instead of just accepting the offer and gladly auditioning for it, the now-39-year-old actress had the most bizarre response to the casting director which, as can be derived, eventually led to her losing out on the James Bond franchise.

James Bond has the privilege of being played by different actors, each adding their own unique touch to the character. One of the fan-favorite iterations of the character was the one played by Pierce Brosnan between 1995 – 2002. During his tenure, the actor brought 007 to life for movies starting with GoldenEye (1995) and ending with Die Another Day (2002). The mantle was then forwarded to Daniel Craig.

Now, the hunt for Hollywood’s next James Bond is on but it looks like fans just want Pierce Brosnan to return to the role, especially after seeing his look at Wimbledon. While it’s true that the actor is no longer young, he is definitely aging like fine wine and fans would love to see him play an older version of Bond again. With looks like that, he should have no problem getting back into character effortlessly.

N*de scenes in Hollywood are nothing new. While some are okay with baring their bodies for the screen, all a part of the art, some show hesitancy on the matter. And actor Jim Caviezel, who is most famous for the movie The Passion of the Christ and the show, Person of Interest, is in the latter group of people.

Since it was announced that David Corenswet would be playing the role of Superman, fans can’t help but be excited. While they are trying to hold onto the past with Henry Cavill’s version, they cannot help but accept that things are beginning to change, and who better to lead it than someone as talented as Corenswet?
However, before it was announced that he got the role, two other actors were running for the role; Tom Brittney and Nicholas Hoult. Although DC and James Gunn made an excellent decision when they decided to go for Corenswet, there is no denying that the days leading up to the reveal were quite straining for both the fans and those involved.

Gina Carano became known around the world when she appeared in The Mandalorian alongside Pedro Pascal. The role was tailored according to the actress, and she became one of the most popular characters in the series. But, at one point, Gina Carano was fired from Disney, and her character was written out of the show, which became a big saga online.
At the same time, Henry Cavill, despite enjoying all that popularity, doesn’t seem to be able to catch a break. His work as Superman is over, as Gunn decided to replace him with David Corenswet, and his franchise success – The Witcher – also ended up with him being replaced with Liam Hemsworth. His recent project, Argylle, failed miserably, and while he is not out of work, his career is not on the level you’d expect.

Exclusive: Arthouse streamer and distributor Mubi is set to re-release Tarsem’s cult 2006 film The Fall in a newly restored 4K version from 27 September 2024 in the US, Canada, Latin America, the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Benelux, Turkey and India. The Match Factory is handling sales for the rest of the world.
The 4K restoration will have its world premiere at this year’s Locarno Film Festival where it will play on the Piazza Grande. Mubi will subsequently stream it on its service.
Set in Los Angeles, circa 1920s, the visually striking movie charts the story of an immigrant girl in a hospital recovering from a fall who strikes up a friendship with a bedridden man. He captivates her with a whimsical story that removes her far from the hospital doldrums into the exotic landscapes of her imagination.
Filmed over four years in 20 different locations across the globe, the movie starred Lee Pace, Catinca Untaru and Justine Waddell. The film was originally presented by David Fincher and Spike Jonze, with a script from Dan Gilroy and Nico Soultanakis.
Reviews were mixed for the film and it failed to ignite at the box office, but its visuals were highly praised and Roger Ebert gave it 4 stars, calling it a singular work: “You might want to see [it] for no other reason than because it exists. There will never be another like it,” he said.
After debuting at Toronto back in 2006, the film became very hard to track down on streaming services and director Tarsem recently expressed hope the feature would soon get a revival.
Tarsem Singh, known as Tarsem, is also known for movies such as The Cell, starring Jennifer Lopez, The Immortals starring Henry Cavill, Mirror Mirror starring Julia Roberts and Self/less with Ryan Reynolds. The filmmaker is also well known for his music videos, including Rem’s Losing My Religion, which won MTV’s Best Video Award. In 2023, he directed his first feature film in Punjabi, Dear Jassi which won the Platform Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.

The Engineer and Ultraman circle the downed hero who is clearly struggling to get to his feet. After a brief conversation where Superman seemingly addresses them both, the Kryptonian takes flight, likely fleeing the battle to regroup.
While it's strange to see Superman leave a fight like this, he may have no other choice. However, seeing as The Engineer can clearly go toe-to-toe with Supes, it appears he doesn't have the same God-like powers as Henry Cavill's version.

Over the years, the Argo actor has accomplished a lot in his acting career. However, there was a time in his career when he took a nose dive after working in three flops in the same year.
This streak also included a film where he worked with his wife, Jennifer Lopez, the 2003 film titled Gigli, which made fans question his ability to choose a good script.

Possibly as a response to the numerous Superman set photos doing the rounds online, Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder has taken to Vero to share a new, never-before-seen photo of Henry Cavill as our previous big-screen Man of Tomorrow in his Clark Kent guise.
This shot is from an early scene in Cavill's Dceu debut, which finds Kent working at a bar. He gets into a confrontation with a trucker who was hassling a waitress, before walking away... and going outside to destroy the guy's truck.
There's been some speculation that Snyder posting this image might be a hint that the filmmaker has something in the works with Cavill's take on Superman,...

To say that Henry Cavill was wasted as Superman would be an understatement. Despite being the perfect fit to pull off the traditional Superman, the writing and direction of the now-defunct Dceu never allowed the actor to live up to his full potential as the Man of Steel. Moreover, with the regime change, the actor’s run as Clark Kent officially came to an end in late 2022.
But while the actor’s Superman journey was cut short following the mishaps that flooded the Dceu throughout its struggling run, in a new photo, the actor seems like the perfect fit for Papa Kent.
