Mortal Kombat 2 was slated to begin its box office battle on October 24, but Warner Bros. and New Line have called an audible. The studios have decided to postpone the upcoming MK sequel until summer 2026. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Mortal Kombat 2 will now debut in theaters on May 15, 2026. Typically, the beginning of May isn't an ideal space for anything that isn't a big-budget blockbuster.

A young woman asked, "Did you always want to direct or did casting work inspire you to direct?" My response was immediate: "I always knew I wanted to direct but my self-worth was in the gutter. So, I had to work on that most of all." She gave that answer some very enthusiastic snaps, as did others in the audience. I thought, oh yeah, a lot of people feel that

Shooting Alien was kind of like skipping boot camp and going straight to combat: No one was prepared for the grueling conditions under which Ridley Scott's ambitious project would be filmed. Early in the production, the bulky space suits and intense summer heat had actors passing out mid-take. Later, Scott started ratcheting up tension among the cast to intensify certain scenes, like when one character had to slap another. Props malfunctioned, the set grew claustrophobic, and the cast was sometimes left waiting around idly

The Delacorte, an open-air amphitheater in Central Park, paused its annual outdoor series of high-profile and free summer shows in 2024 to continue with a renovation, and now returns, refurbished and temporarily restocked with a bunch of familiar faces. For their production of William Shakespeare's Twelfth Night, the Public Theater has snagged Peter Dinklage, Sandra Oh, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Daphne Rubin-Vega, singer/actor Moses Sumney, and Lupita Nyong'o in the central role of Viola, opposite her real-life brother Junior as Viola's twin Sebastian.

And we had a problem. With Angela Carter, I had written a scene where the devil drives a cream-coloured Rolls-Royce through an imaginary forest, chauffeured by the young dreamer Rosaleen, played by Sarah Patterson. My initial thought was for Andy Warhol to play the devil. Those pale-blue eyes and that blank expression framed by the blond wig. Andy read the script and liked it.

I am getting asked about this a lot, so I’ll just clear it up now; I was not asked to come back and be in the #PracticalMagic sequel. I offered my services, even if it was one scene or one line. I was told they are re-casting.

"I was out in Los Angeles, and my agent said, 'Oh, I sent your picture in to this casting director for Friends... they want to still look at some other actors.'"

Mike White returns to Survivor after years of success in television, hinting the season may draw inspiration from his critically acclaimed show, The White Lotus.

"I had to text Lily-Rose Depp and say I'm sorry. I had said absolutely no way to Lily-Rose Depp. I didn't think she could act."
