Zorro and Expats are the big shows coming to Prime Video in January. The former is what Amazon are calling a “bold reinterpretation” of the classic hero El Zorro for 2024. Starring Miguel Bernardeau as Diego de la Vega and Renata Notni as Lolita Marquez, it’s definitely an intriguing-sounding action-adventure series, with a ten-episode first season based on the iconic character originally created by Johnston McCulley all the way back in 1919.
Meanwhile, upcoming drama series Expats is based on the bestselling 2016 novel The Expatriates by Janice Y. K. Lee, and follows “the vibrant lives of a close-knit expatriate community” in Hong Kong. Nicole Kidman has been known for picking the right kind of shows to lead in the past, so let’s hope this is another banger for the actress, who is also on board as an executive producer here.
Here’s everything coming to Amazon Prime Video and Freevee this month.

A24 are delivering a special gift to Max this December, as Leo Reich’s acclaimed stand-up show Literally Who Cares?! hits the streamer. The comedian has already won over the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and Off-Broadway with runs of the show, but this performance was taped at EartH in London. Consider checking it out – if A24 got involved in the project, you know you’ll definitely see something weird and special.
But if you’re looking for something more serious, add the new three-part documentary series Murder In Boston: Roots, Rampage & Reckoning to your watch list this month. The upcoming series delves into the fallout from the investigation into Charles “Chuck” Stuart’s 911 call reporting that he and his pregnant wife, had been shot in Boston’s Mission Hill neighborhood in 1989.

It’s an interesting month ahead on Hulu, as the streamer rolls out some of the series it’s been keeping in its back pocket for the holiday season.
On December 15, the first season of Such Brave Girls will arrive. The sitcom follows a dysfunctional family – and we mean dysfunctional! – that includes real-life sisters Kat Sadler and Lizzie Davidson. British comedian Sadler has previously written for The News Quiz, Hypothetical, and Mel Giedroyc: Unforgivable, but this is her first big TV project. “Everything we joke about in the show is from a place of lived experience,” she told Funny Women. “I wish I could say this is a heart-warming show about overcoming trauma, but that would be a lie. It’s about three toxic, damaged egomaniacs manipulating the world and each other for their own personal gain, vengeance and glory…just like in Little Women.” Sounds good!

"Be good to yourself, Charlie, and get as far away from here as you can." Vertical has unveiled the official trailer for an assassin action film called Fast Charlie, the latest feature from acclaimed filmmaker Phillip Noyce. Pierce Brosnan stars as Charlie Swift – a fixer with a problem: the thug he's after is now missing his head, and Charlie will only be paid if the body can be identified. Enter Marcie Kramer, the victim's ex-wife and a woman with all the skills Charlie needs - so they partner up. Along the way, Charlie and Marcie fight to protect the legacy of Charlie's best friend and mentor, Stan Mullen (James Caan in his final performance), while bringing down Beggar and his entire crew. The cast also includes Morena Baccarin, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Toby Huss, along with Sharon Gless and Caan. That little blue scope on his gun is an amusing detail. It's...

Pierce Brosnan has a very particular set of skills in Vertical’s Fast Charlie trailer, and he’s not afraid to show you how he keeps them sharp. The upcoming thriller from director Phillip Noyce features Brosnan as Charlie Swift, a fixer whose latest victim is missing his head, and it’s up to Charlie to prove the rest of his body belongs to his intended target.
Based on the novel “Gun Monkeys” by Victor Gischler, Fast Charlie has the following synopsis:
Charlie Swift (Pierce Brosnan), aka “Fast Charlie,” is a fixer with a problem: the target he’s whacked is missing his head. And he must prove it’s the intended target to the man who paid for the hit – New Orleans’ most prominent and most ruthless mobster, Beggar Mercado (Gbenga Akinnagbe). Charlie enlists Marcie Kramer (Morena Baccarin), the victim’s ex-wife and a woman with the backbone and skillset Charlie needs.

Exclusive: Matthew Wilder has been set to write and direct an untitled film that chronicles the life and work of author Joan Didion.
The plan is to paint a dreamlike day in the life of Didion and California in the late 1960s, when the brilliant young journalist is hurtled from encounters with jailed Manson girls to protesting Black Panthers, and from Nancy Reagan pausing in a photo op to Vietnam War POWs — climaxing with an epilogue in a near-future California where an AI Joan encounters a dystopia beyond her wildest anxiety dreams.
The film, produced under David Michaels’ Enfant Terrible Cinema, will shoot in Los Angeles in the first or second quarter of 2024. Financing is being discussed with potential partners this week at AFM.

With Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour pulling in the big bucks this weekend, we wanted to know what movie featuring the singer/ songwriter/ actress/ football fan is your favorite? The interesting thing is that none of the movies with Swift in them have been critical hits. The Lorax represents the biggest critical hit at 54% on Rotten Tomatoes while The Giver represents her best live action effort at just 35%. We are keeping this poll strictly to her narrative movies and not any of her music related content so you will have to decide if her lovelorn cheerleader from Valentines Day was your favorite or her more adult turn in David O’Russel’s Amsterdam is more your cup of tea.

Numbers have begun rolling in and it is a Taylor Swift kind of weekend with the singers Eras Tour looking to pull in between $92-$105 million per Deadline. That number comes from a $39 million Friday, although that number is unofficial as the official Friday numbers haven’t been released yet. If that $39 million number sticks, it will represent the second largest October Friday gross ever, just behind Joker’s $39.3. If I was a betting man, I’d say Swift will claim that record as well as the all time October opening weekend record which currently sits with Joker at $96.2 million.
This number represents the best opening for a movie featuring Taylor Swift, beating out such classics as Amsterdam, Cats, The Giver and Valentines Day. That number also beats out Justin Bieber: Never Say Never’s lifetime gross of just over $99 million worldwide
No doubt this is an amazing opening...

“When will Taylor Swift’s film career take off?” has been a question lurking in the back of a lot of people’s minds ever since she started getting her feet wet with bit parts in “The Giver” and “Valentine’s Day” … and then further limited herself to keeping her toes damp with “Cats” and “Amsterdam” cameos. But do we finally have an answer to that question now, or what? Nobody should suppose that “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” doesn’t count as establishing her as a movie star, just because it’s a straightforward rendering of an ongoing concert tour that’s soon to become the most successful in history. It’s 2 hours and 45 minutes of nearly nonstop acting, writ large for the back row of SoFi Stadium and, now, Imax and Dolby. What she might do with lengthy dialogue passages someday remains to be seen, but she’s...

Could Taylor Swift be turning superhero?
Plenty of rumours have been spreading lately about the upcoming “Deadpool 3”, including one picking up steam suggesting Swift may be making a cameo.
Read More: All The Celebs Who Have Attended Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour
According to the rumour, which has been around for years, Swift would be playing the Marvel character Dazzler, who was first introduced in the “Uncanny X-Men” comic series in 1980.
Dazzler is a mutant with the power to turn sound vibrations into light and energy beams in order to battle enemies.
While the rumours are completely unsubstantiated, film journalist Erik Davis lent some credence to the idea, citing a conversation he once had with Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige, who said Dazzler would be his pick for the Marvel character he’d most want to direct a movie about.

This post contains spoilers for "Barbie."
One of the many joys of watching "Barbie" is catching all the film's references to classic cinema. "The Wizard of Oz" was an obvious inspiration for co-writer and director Greta Gerwig's take on the iconic doll, from the yellow pink brick road that cuts through Barbieland to the ghost of Barbie creator and Mattel co-founder Ruth Handler (Rhea Perlman), who gradually emerges as a Wizard-like guide to Stereotypical Barbie (Margot Robbie) on her journey of spiritual discovery. Moreover, the film is a love letter to 20th-century movie musicals in general, as seen in the "I'm Just Ken" sequence -- a musical number that includes a Gene Kelly-styled dream ballet where the Kens adapt all-black attire recalling John Travolta's getup from "Grease" -- and the bold, vivid color palette of Barbieland, which brings to mind the production design for "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.

Nobody sets out to make a movie that will fail, be it a tiny independent production or the biggest of big blockbusters from a major studio. On the flip side, occasionally arrogance of a sort sets in and there is an element of presumed success with a film, and those projects -- more often than not -- feel doomed to fail. Such was the case with Lionsgate's 2016 big-budget fantasy play "Gods of Egypt," which bombed spectacularly upon its initial release. Yet, lofty ambitions existed as this was eyed as just the first entry in a brand new franchise. Before it all went to hell, that is.
The film, directed by Alex Proyas, cost a whopping $140 million to produce before marketing, putting it firmly in gigantic blockbuster territory. But it made a paltry $31 million in total at the domestic box office and topped out at $150 million worldwide. Per Variety, Lionsgate...

This article contains spoilers for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
Respawn Entertainment surprised gamers and Star Wars fans alike with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The title is not only a blast to play, but its story and characters are fleshed out, thanks in no small part to its cast.
Instead of starring mostly voice actors, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order sports an even mix of talented voices and skilled live-action actors. While this strategy has proven disastrous for many games in the past, every member of Fallen Order’s cast carried their role with dignity and gravitas. And when Respawn announced a sequel, the voice director knew they had a good thing going for them and kept most of the actors who brought Fallen Order to life. As for the voices of new characters of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, they fit right in.

Former Epix exec Benjamin Tappan has joined Walden Media as president of production, overseeing the shingle’s TV and film development, as well as production. Tappan’s hire comes as Walden Media also looks to broaden its programming mix. Tappan will report to Walden Media president and CEO Frank Smith, who announced the hire on Tuesday.
“Ben’s vast experience as both a production executive and talent representative along with his great track record of making popular and critically praised content make him uniquely suited for leading our creative team,” Smith said in a statement. “We greatly look forward to his leadership and contributions as we build the Walden Media of the future.”
Tappan most recently served as a consultant focused on scripted development and production at his Tap/In Entertainment. He spent four years at Epix (now known as MGM+), joining in 2015 and helping launch the pay network’s first three straight-to-series productions.

When the Oscar nominations were announced early on Tuesday, Jan. 24, there was one major person who didn't make the list: Taylor Swift. Swift was on the Oscar shortlist for best original song for her track "Carolina," which she wrote and performed for July 2022's "Where the Crawdads Sing." But the singer didn't make the list of nominations, which includes Rihanna's "Lift Me Up" from "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" and Lady Gaga's "Hold My Hand" from "Top Gun: Maverick." Mitski and David Byrne also surprisingly received a nomination for their song from "Everything Everywhere All at Once."
Swift was also hoping for another nomination for her "All Too Well: The Short Film," which she released alongside "Red (Taylor's Version)" in the fall of 2021 (short films have a different eligibility period than other categories). She campaigned the film, which stars Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien, at festivals throughout the year,...

Taylor Swift is giving her fans even more material to parse through. A little over a month after the release of her 10th studio album, "Midnights," Searchlight Pictures announced the singer-songwriter will be directing her first feature-length film for the production company. Swift also wrote the original script.
"Taylor is a once in a generation artist and storyteller," Searchlight Pictures Presidents David Greenbaum and Matthew Greenfield said in a joint statement shared with Variety on Dec. 9. "It is a genuine joy and privilege to collaborate with her as she embarks on this exciting and new creative journey."
Though this will be her first feature, this won't mark Swift's first time behind the camera: she previously directed "All Too Well: The Short Film," which accompanied her rerecorded album "Red (Taylor's Version)" in 2021. The 14-minute film starred Sadie Sink and Dylan O'Brien and went on to win various MTV Video Music Awards and American Music Awards.

We knew she was trouble when she walked in…and now Taylor Swift is about to walk onto the movie set, as she is set to make her directorial debut for Searchlight Pictures.
In a statement, Searchlight Presidents David Greenbaum and Matthew Greenfield said, “Taylor is a once in a generation artist and storyteller. It is a genuine joy and privilege to collaborate with her as she embarks on this exciting and new creative journey.”
No details have been released on the project as far as plot or cast, meaning there’s a blank space in the announcement at this point. Taylor Swift has previously directed or co-directed more than a dozen of her own music videos.
Objectively, Taylor Swift’s cinematic output hasn’t exactly been impressive. Her first big screen appearance was in 2010’s romantic comedy Valentine’s Day, with another supporting role in 2014’s The Giver. She...

Turns out, Taylor Swift could've made her big-screen debut before she starred in 2010's "Valentine's Day." According to "Twilight: New Moon" director Chris Weitz, the pop star would've added the sequel to her acting résumé had he not passed on her agent's request for her to appear in the film.
"Taylor Swift and I had the same agent at the time, and he said, 'Taylor would like to be in this movie - not because of you, but because she's a Twihard. She will be someone at the cafeteria, or the diner or whatever. But she just wants to be in this movie,'" Weitz recalled during an episode of the "The Twilight Effect" podcast hosted by Melanie Howe and franchise alum Ashley Greene.

Taylor Swift will release her new song, “Carolina,” a theme for the film “Where the Crawdads Sing,” tonight, she revealed on her social media this morning.
The song, which plays over the movie’s end credits, arrives three weeks in advance of the release of “Where the Crawdads Sing,” due in theaters July 15.
The coming drop was revealed in an image on the artist’s Instagram Story. She didn’t include any additional text about the tune, although it’s likely she would have more to say when the song arrives tonight.
It marks the first freshly penned song Swift has issued since her “Evermore” album in late 2020, although the artist has put out remakes and previously unheard bonus tracks from her series of re-recorded catalog albums in the interim.

Lois Lowry's Newberry Medal-winning dystopian novel "The Giver" has been required reading in elementary school for many people since it was published in 1993 (myself included). Of course, Lowry's body of writing extends well beyond that, with books dating back to the late 1970s and works that include her other Newberry Medal-winner, the 1990 WWII Holocaust novel "Number the Stars." She's also written decidedly more light-hearted and quirky titles like the "Anastasia" and "Gooney Bird" books. Both of those center on young girls whose problems are, thankfully, neither matters of life or death nor concern them being denied the right to basic human autonomy.

With The Willoughbys, writer/director Kris Pearn adapted a beloved children’s book of the same name by Lois Lowry, looking to be as faithful as possible to the “subversive” nature of her story, while bringing to it his own personal touch.
Pearn’s second feature, following 2013’s Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2, centers on the Willoughby children, who grew up with parents who could not be more disinterested in them. Exploring the sometimes-wide gap between the families we’re born into and those we choose, it watches as the kids send their selfish guardians off on vacation, setting off on a globetrotting adventure and forging new connections.
In conversation with Deadline, Pearn breaks down his narrative and visual approach to the feature—which debuted on Netflix last April—a clever, darkly comedic parable, through which he hoped to say “something real.”
Deadline: How did you come to direct The Willoughbys?...
