First Image of Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump in THE APPRENTICE

The Apprentice starring Sebastian Stan is already a hot button project, and it has barely started filming. Variety gave us one of the first images to emerge from this this biopic. It shows Stan as a young Trump with his lawyer Roy Cohen played by Jeremy Strong. This is what they had to say about the film:

Ali Abbasi’s feature — which has just been announced as part of the 2024 Cannes main competition — charts Trump’s ascent to power through what is described as a “Faustian deal” with the influential right-wing lawyer and political fixer Roy Cohn (seen in the still being portrayed by Jeremy Strong). As the synopsis reads, “‘The Apprentice’ is a dive into the underbelly of the American empire.

The film also stars Maria Bakalova as Ivana Trump. There is going to be interest in this film when it is released. Good or bad, this is going to stir the pot. Whatever the outcome is, this is going to garner a lot of interest. Regardless, Stan appears to embody the essence of Trump. Check out the photo and let us know what you think.

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE Has Inspired a Hilarious in-Theater PSA Asking Audiences to Silence Cellphones

During Marvel Studios’ portion of Disney’s CinemaCon presentation last week, they screened a hilarious Deadpool & Wolverine-inspired PSA spot asking audiences to silence their cellphones before the movie starts.

I was wondering at the time if that was going to be something that would end up being played in theaters across the country, and it looks like that is exactly what’s going to happen with it!

According to THR, the spot shown at CinemaCon is intended to play in theaters, but as of right now the Marvel and Deadpool & Wolverine team has not officially confirmed that.

In the PSA, Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) is talking to Wolverine about his theories regarding Avengers: Secret Wars, but anytime he goes to reveal one of the film’s secrets, a cell phone goes off and he isn’t able to finish his thought.

After the cell phone keeps bringing, Hugh Jackman‘s Wolverine goes ballistic and addresses the audience throwing out all the F-bombs and making and making a comment about how the theater is not “your grandma’s nursing home.”

Eventually, Deadpool has to calm Wolverine down. It’s a great spot that I have no doubt audiences will get a kick out of!

After that PSA played, Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige came on stage and declared, “Deadpool & Wolerine is f  –king awesome. And the reason I can say that … is that it’s an R-rated movie.”

We were then treated to nine minutes of footage from the film, and you can watch out reaction video here in case you missed it.

In the film: “After some professional disappointments and an ongoing midlife crisis, Wade Wilson now sells used cars. He’s completely hung up his boots until his family, friends, and whole world are threatened.

“With everyone he loves at risk, DP teams up with a reluctant Wolverine to fight for their survival and ultimately, their legacy.”

The confirmed cast for the movie includes Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova, Morena Baccarin and Stefan Kapicic as Vanessa and Colossus, Matthew Macfadyen in a TVA Agent, and Leslie Uggams as Blind Al.

They are joined by Brianna Hildebrand and Shioli Kutsuna will also return to the franchise as Negasonic Teenage Warhead and Negasonic Teenage Warhead’s girlfriend Yukio. It was previously confirmed that Jennifer Garner will return as Elektra in the movie.

Deadpool & Wolverine will hit theaters on July 26th!

Trailer For The Inspirational Film THE KEEPER About a Military Veteran Who Hikes the Appalachian Trail

Here’s the trailer for an inspirational drama titled The Keeper, which is based on the true story of a military veteran who embarks on a journey hiking the Appalachian Trail.

George Eshleman is an Army Veteran, who is impacted by his fellow veterans’ suicides. So, he decides to raise awareness for military member suicides by hiking the entire nearly 2,200-mile Appalachian Trail from Maine to Georgia.

On his journey, he carries 363 name tapes from the uniforms of those military veterans who took their lives, given to him by their families. While on the trek, he is given the trail name of “The Keeper” (of the names) and finds support and comfort from fellow hikers, civilians, and military Veterans alike, in the “Hiker Universe.”

This adventurous subculture forms a network of hikers that revel in their common purpose and an unspoken meaning of life that drives them down the trail and over the next peak.

The synopsis reads: “A special group of military veteran hikers help shadow a fellow vet battling depression, PTSD, and suicidal tendencies as he hikes on the Appalachian Trail. From the beginning, George meets four unique, military Veteran hikers (Michael Maclane, Haley Babula, Andrew Ferguson, Nicholas Asad), who shadow his hike, motivate his efforts, and seem to keep tabs on him from beginning to end.

“Despite the support of fellow hikers and Veterans for his noble mission, his own depression threatens to overtake his judgement as he plots his own suicide along the trail. With his darkness only a few paces from his mind, George fights a daily battle along the trail as he struggles to prove his mettle, conquer his depression, and focus on the mission of finishing the trail.”

The movie stars director Angus Benfield as George, and he is joined by Haley Babula, Michael Maclane, Nicolas Asad, Andrew Ferguson, Kameron Whitaker, and Lance Bonza.

This movie looks like it tells a wonderfully uplifting story. It’s set to be released in theaters on May 24th, 2024.

New Adult Swim Promo Features Genndy Tartakovsky’s PRIMAL, but What does It Mean for Season 3?

Genndy Tartakovsky is currently in the middle of developing the third season of his awesome prehistoric series Primal.

The first two seasons have followed the story of Spear and Fang, and it’s been awesome! The second season has a pretty definitive ending for the two characters, so fans have been really curious about what Season 3 will entail.

We haven’t had a lot of updates on the next season, but Tartakovsky previously teased: “I have something in mind that is so spectacular I cannot wait to do it, and we’re trying to figure out how to do it.”

He explained: “It’s a brand new world, but I’m so into it. I think everybody’s going to love it. It’s a very natural progression without giving anything away, but I’ve got more things for the Primal world and I cannot wait to do more.”

Tartakovsky previously shared: “I have an idea that I’m really excited about, one idea that’s rising to the top. After doing five seasons of Samurai Jack, two seasons of Primal, all the Clone Wars that we did, I’ve done so many battles and action.”

He continued: “If I was going to do it again, what would I do? How can I make it interesting to me and the audience, so it’s not just a repeat of what I’ve done? That’s why I was so excited about Primal.”

“I haven’t done caveman-style fighting. He’s got no skills, it’s just rawness. To choreograph fights like that was really fun. Pushing it into a season 3 of Primal, if it gets there, what’s different? What can I do that I haven’t done?”

The promo spot that Adult Swim shared features Primal, but these kinds of promo spots don’t usually tie into the canon or tease future events. But, the fact that this one has a big focus on Lord Darlington from the Season 2 episode, “The Primal Theory” fans are wondering what that could mean.

Will the character be in the new series? Could he a descendant of Spear’s bloodline? I mean, the way the promo plays out could be teasing that.

We’ll just have to wait and see, but I’m excited to see what Tartakovsky has got cooking.

Anthony Hopkins Stars as King Herod in New Biblical Thriller MARY From Director DJ Caruso

Anthony Hopkins stars alongside emerging Israeli actress Noa Cohen in the upcoming biblical thriller Mary, and Hopkins plays King Herod in the film.

The movie is described as a coming-of-age story that follows Mary, who “is shunned following the otherworldly conception of her child and forced into hiding.”

King Herod’s “relentless drive to maintain power at any cost ignites the murderous pursuit of the newborn child that he believes is a threat to his reign on the throne.”

The story also sees the “young Mary and Joseph on the run and having to hide their baby, Jesus, at all costs.”

The movie was directed by DJ Caruso (Disturbia, xXx: Return of Xander Cage), and it has already completed production.

Hopkins said in a statement: “At this time of my life, I’m drawn to the challenge of complex scripts. As well, the level of the detail given to this production with extraordinary sets, props and costumes — makes me proud to be a part of this.”

Producer Aloe added: “Hopkins was primed to play King Herod the Great. He embodied this historical figure of a king who was steeped in mental illness and greed with such great ferocity.”

Caruso commented: “I want to give the world a portrayal of the real human Mary. Her story has a lesser-known beginning; it is profoundly worthy of being told. Portraying her from birth through childhood and presenting her as a human being with apprehensions and fears will be a celebration of everything inspiring and gut-wrenching about her journey.”

Said Joel Osteen: “What drew me to this project was how the script represents a real breakthrough in the telling of Mary’s story. It draws the audience into her incredible journey in becoming one of the most influential women in all of history.”

Timothy Michael Hayes (BirdsEye) wrote the original screenplay after consulting with priests, bishops, baptist pastors, rabbis, Mormons and Muslims along with biblical scholars and theologians.

The film also stars Mila Harris as Young Mary, Ido Tako as Joseph, Stephanie Nur as Salome, Susan Brown as Anna the Prophetess, Ori Pfeffer as Joachim, Hilla Vidor as Anne, Gudmundur Thorvaldsson as Marcellus and Dudley O’Shaughnessy, Eamon Farren, Mili Avital, Milo Djurovic, Charley Boon, Kelsie Lewis and Jade Croot.
