Universal Pictures New Film: Wolf Man

 From the Director of The Invisible Man, #WolfManMovie is in theaters January.

---Website: https://www.wolfmanmovie.com
What if someone you loved became something else?

From Blumhouse and visionary writer-director Leigh Whannell, the creators of the chilling modern monster tale The Invisible Man, comes a terrifying new lupine nightmare: Wolf Man. 



Golden Globe nominee Christopher Abbott (Poor Things, It Comes at Night) stars as Blake, a San Francisco husband and father, who inherits his remote childhood home in rural Oregon after his own father vanishes and is presumed dead. With his marriage to his high-powered wife, Charlotte (Emmy winner Julia Garner; Ozark, Inventing Anna), fraying, Blake persuades Charlotte to take a break from the city and visit the property with their young daughter, Ginger (Matlida Firth; Hullraisers, Coma).

But as the family approaches the farmhouse in the dead of night, they’re attacked by an unseen animal and, in a desperate escape, barricade themselves inside the home as the creature prowls the perimeter. As the night stretches on, however, Blake begins to behave strangely, transforming into something unrecognizable, and Charlotte will be forced to decide whether the terror within their house is more lethal than the danger without.

The film co-stars Sam Jaeger (The Handmaid’s Tale), Ben Prendergast (The Sojourn Audio Drama) and Benedict Hardie (The Invisible Man).

Wolf Man is directed by Whannell, whose previous films with Blumhouse include The Invisible Man, Upgrade and Insidious: Chapter 3. The screenplay is written by Leigh Whannell & Corbett Tuck, Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo (Dumb Money).

The film is produced by Blumhouse founder and CEO Jason Blum and is executive produced by Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Leigh Whannell. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production. -- Universal Pictures

Being a librarian has never been so cool. Wait, is this cool? I don't know.

Follow "The Librarians: The Next Chapter" Only on The CW the Fall

 

This fall the CW Networks new series, The Librarians: The Next Chapter has a new team that team that protects the world by watching over some of its most dangerous artifacts. In the spin-off, Librarian Vikram Chamberlin (Callum McGowan) from the past gets stuck in our time and forms a new team when he accidentally unleashes magic into the world.

 

 The cast of ‘The Librarians: The Next Chapter’ are Callum McGowan, Olivia Morris, Bluey Robinson and Caroline Loncq join previously announced Jessica Green and guest star Christian Kane, who reprises his role as Jacob Stone.

According to Deadline:

McGowan will play Vikram Chamberlin, The Librarian. Vikram was THE Librarian in 1847.  A protean genius and swashbuckler, he broke the rules of The Library and accidentally transported himself to present-day Central Europe where he must lead a team of talented young people in securing magical artifacts from those who would abuse them.  The question is, will Vikram keep his oath to the Library (and his new team) or will he attempt to travel back to his own time where unfinished business – and his heart – remain.

Morris portrays Lysa Pascal, The Scientist. A brilliant polymath, Lysa holds advanced degrees in physics, mathematics, and engineering. Because of a childhood tragedy, she is obsessed with eliminating the unpredictable from life. Upon inheriting an ancient castle in Serbia, she comes into the orbit of Vikram and the Library. She joins his team to see if “magic” can be explained in scientific terms. There is also a deeper motive to her involvement…Vikram’s past may be the key to unraveling her own identity.

Robinson is Connor Green, The Historian. Having lost a career in academia after claiming that magic does exist in the world, Connor became a fringe figure, posting his findings on the internet to an audience of conspiracy freaks. In addition to an encyclopedic knowledge of history and all things supernatural, Connor is an extreme athlete and parkour expert, having trained himself to get into…and out of…the secretive corners of the paranormal world. Connor’s involvement with Vikram is his chance to prove that he was right. Unfortunately, he is now forsworn from ever telling anyone what he knows.

Loncq plays Elaine Astalot, The Caretaker. Elaine, a resident of Camelot in the days of King Arthur, is an immortal and caretaker of the Library. She has her hands full keeping Vikram and the rest of his team in their lanes, but never loses the keep-calm-and-carry-on attitude of a British landlady who’s pretty much seen it all in her fourteen centuries on the planet.”

The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live -- Air Date

 


The latest AMC spinoff to The Walking Dead saga is 'The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live', a limited series in which estranged zombie warriors and lovers Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) will reunite. Most of us fans were surprised when some years ago unknown agents swooshed a badly wounded Rick away in a helicopter. Of these agents, we could only hope they would heal him, and not make him into a creature worst than the zombies already hunting our battle worn heroes. Emotions were high back then, and we grieved his lost with Michonne and Carl (Chandler Riggs), and greatly feared for Judith Grimes (Cailey Fleming) the once infant girl that Michonne and the now dead half brother Carl cared for and protected since Rick went missing and thought truly dead, and hopefully not walking among the teaming dead.

Well, enough of my emotional rant ‘Rick is back’ and will rejoin his little band of zombie killers this Sunday, February 25, 2024 on the AMC cable channel and the AMC+ streaming network.
