 SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL

NETFLIX MOVIE TRAILER

Today, I have for you a trailer and posters for Netflix adaptation of YA saga THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL which will stream October

The movie arrives October 21st

21th based on Soman Chainani's books and directed by Paul Feig. The cast includes Charlize Theron, Michelle Yeoh, Kerry Washington and Laurence Fishburne, plus Cate Blanchett lends her voice to the narrator. 

 

THE STORY IS SET 

in the village of Gavaldon, where two misfits and best friends, Sophie (Sophia Anne Caruso) and Agatha (Sofia Wylie), share the unlikeliest of bonds. Sophie, a golden-haired seamstress, dreams of escaping her dreary life to become a princess, while

The movie is based on popular YA books

Agatha, with her grim aesthetic and offbeat mother, has the makings of a real witch. One night under a blood red moon, a powerful force sweeps them away to the School for Good and Evil — where the true stories behind every great fairy tale begin. Yet something is amiss from the start: Sophie is dropped into the School for Evil, run by the glamourous and acid-tongued Lady Lesso (Charlize Theron), and Agatha in the School for Good, overseen by the sunny and kind Professor Dovey (Kerry Washington). As if navigating classes with the offspring of the Wicked Witch (Freya Parks), Captain Hook (Earl Cave), and King Arthur (Jamie Flatters) wasn’t hard enough, according to the Schoolmaster (Laurence Fishburne), only true love’s kiss can change the rules and send the girls to their rightful schools and destiny. But when a dark and dangerous figure (Kit Young) with mysterious ties to Sophie reemerges and threatens to destroy the school and the world beyond entirely — the only way to a happy ending is to survive their real life fairytale first. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think, those two lead girls seem totally talentless and miscast.

Trek: Discovery television series, which disappointed so many trekkies around the globe with its almost offensive offer of non stop explosions, violence and fire, not to mention the randomly chosen cast. Star Trek is all about science, psychology, anthropology, other cultures not about beating some aliens up, so the new Star Trek series, which is heading towards becoming a major flop, seemed like a betrayal for most of the fans and I've noticed hordes of them saying they're more excited about Fox's THE ORVILLE than about the new adventures of Star Fleet ships. If I tell you THE ORVILLE is a comedy, you will understand the level of their

Now, their amassing army shall prove undefeatable unless the banished huntsmen who broke their queen's cardinal rule can fight their way back to one another!

COUNT COLIN MORGAN!

Seeing the magical costume that Queen Ravenna and Ice Queen Freya are wearing in the trailers, you can expect an award winning costume designer behind all the fantastic gowns and crowns: three times Oscar winner Colleen Atwood is behind all of the outfits including Freya's mindblowing silver armour that she wears while riding into battle on her snow warbear! MERLIN's superstar Colin Morgan appears also in the movie as Duke of Blackwood! There will be female dwarves this time as well played by British actresses Sheridan Smith and Alexandra Roach.

STARZ' 'OUTLANDER' 

OPENS 2ND SEASON IN APRIL

Speaking of epic things, Starz has announced today that one of their most popular shows OUTLANDER will return with the second season on Saturday April 9th! Based on Diana Gabaldon's second book from OUTLANDER saga 'Dragonfly In Amber' the 13 episode season will see Scottish warrior Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) and his adulteress wife Claire (Caitriona Balfe) rocking some lavish French fashion as you can see them on the steps of the royal court in Versailles in the first promo poster! Instead of swords and guns, they’re armed with political savvy in the 1700s Paris as they embark on their new mission: infiltrating the French aristocracy and rewriting history after they arrive in France, hellbent on infiltrating the Jacobite rebellion led by Prince Charles Stuart, and stopping the battle of Culloden.

RICKY WHITTLE TO LEAD 'AMERICAN GODS' TV SERIES! ABC ORDERS SCOTT FOLEY'S 'TOAST' SITCOM! 'KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS' ANIMATED TRAILER AND POSTERS

RICKY WHITTLE TO LEAD

'AMERICAN GODS' TV SERIES

In today's television news, a casting info from Starz where they're turning Neil Gaiman's AMERICAN GODS into a TV series. The first to join the cast is THE 100 star Ricky Whittle set to play Shadow Moon! The story depicts a war brewing between old and new gods: the traditional gods of mythological roots from around the world steadily losing believers to an upstart pantheon of gods reflecting society’s modern love of money, technology, media, celebrity and drugs. Its protagonist, Shadow Moon is an ex-con who becomes bodyguard and travelling partner to Mr. Wednesday, a conman but in reality one of the older gods, on a cross-country mission to gather his forces in preparation to battle the new deities.

ABC ORDERS 'TOAST'

SCOTT FOLEY SITCOM PILOT
ABC has, meanwhile, ordered a pilot for multicamera TV comedy series TOAST coming from Shonda Rhimes and written by one of her fave actors Scott Foley but I'm not sure yet if he will star in it as well. The hybrid sitcom revolves around engaged couple Max and Paige who, over their wedding rehearsal dinner, have their eclectic family and friends give toasts recalling anecdotes about the couple — but flashbacks reveal that the toasts don’t always get it right, as we watch the true story of their complicated, funny and relatable road to marriage.

Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with Monkey (Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a thrilling quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known. With the help of his shamisen - a magical musical instrument - Kubo must battle gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Rooney Mara) to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family and fulfill his heroic destiny.
