Amidst the growing number of allegations against former Weinstein Company head Harvey Weinstein, the production studio he co-founded is looking to rebrand.
Benedict Cumberbatch will take a break from superhero duties for a bit and will be starring in Gypsy Boy, a film based on the memoirs of Mikey Walsh, a boxer who grew up in the tight-knit Romany community that won’t accept anyone back once they leave.
The only thing missing from the first trailer for The Current War is an “I’ve Got the Power” music cue. Instead, the trailer is scored with something vaguely reminiscent of The Social Network — hardly a coincidence as the film, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Thomas Edison and Michael Shannon as George Westinghouse, is basically trying to do for the electric business what The Social Network did for Facebook.
If you stayed for the credits after Doctor Strange last year (of course you did) you saw the titular Sorcerer Supreme have a little sit down with Chris Hemsworth’s Thor over some beer. So it only makes sense that Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor will drop by Thor: Ragnarok.
We’ve all naturally wanted to see the girls of Girls cross over with Sherlock, and Showtime’s Patrick Melrose might be our best bet. Allison Williams has joined the Benedict Cumberbatch miniseries cast in a role that’s practically Marnie rearranged.
When we talked to Kevin Feige about Spider-Man: Homecoming and the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe last weekend, he spoke about Avengers: Infinity War like the film is going to almost literally break the MCU. It will “completely redefine everything for ,” Feige told us; and we suspect the same could be said all of the 8,000 Marvel characters who are going to show up in Avengers: Infinity W
Sometimes Avengers: Infinity War feels like it’s just an excuse for a bunch of actors to have a giant get-together, film it, and add in some special effects later to make them all look cool. Like the shawarma post-credits scene from the first Avengers, but for two-plus hours. Today on set, two scientists, a doctor, and a librarian walked into a La Croix commercial… and made sure to snap a pic.
Just in case you forgot, we’re getting another movie based on Dr. Seuss’s immortal holiday classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas pretty soon. And also just in case you forgot, said title character is going to be voiced by none other than Benedict Cumberbatch. And said Grinch movie, now has its first official, extremely fuzzy promo art.
