WITH TOM HOLLAND, STANLEY WEBER, AND RICHARD ARMITAGE
Speaking of mediaeval shenanigans, first trailer has finally been released for historical adventure movie PILGRIMAGE which plays this weekend at Tribeca Film Festival starring Tom Holland, Jon Bernthal, Richard Armitage and Stanley Weber!
ON A PERILOUS JOURNEY Coming to theatres in August, it is set on the Irish coast in A.D.
1209, where a group of monks and knights set out on a quest to bring a
legendary artefact with biblical origins to Rome, where they believe it
will be safe from those who seek to wield its power. Their journey
quickly turns into a perilous one, with all manner of military men and
scoundrels attempting to snatch their cargo.
Another new sf series to arrive to us in the future from SyFy is the small screen adaptation of Beau Smith's WYNONNA EARP graphic novel which has officially been greenlit by the channel into supernatural Western TV series!
She is a descendant of the famous lawman Wyatt Earp, and she's the
top special agent for a special unit known as The Monster Squad. She
battles such supernatural threats as Bobo Del Rey and his redneck,
trailer-trash vampires that are pushing a new killer designer drug
called "Hemo," and the Egyptian Mafia's mummy hitman, Raduk, Eater Of
The Dead, who's out to do in all the other crime bosses. In her
subsequent adventures she finished some outstanding Earp family business
while dealing with Hillbilly Gremlins, and Zombie Mailmen alongside her
fellow Marshalls.
