‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is certainly one of the releases this year that is meant to kickstart great things.

Mama June: Family Crisis found critics because viewers think that WeTV gives June Shannon’s family a platform, and they allege they are “grifters.” Additionally, they mock the drama about Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson’s cash crisis ahead of college.
Mama June Shannon And Her Family Get Slammed A Lot
It can be argued that fans are too harsh on June Shannon and her kids. After all, her daughter, Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell passed away after a fight with terminal cancer. However, complaints about the cast are not new. The current season shares a lot about Alana going to college, which is worthy of praise, but her mom’s attitude seems to annoy WeTV viewers.

The MCU is currently recalibrating and making significant changes to rectify the various mistakes made in Phase 4 and the current Phase 5 projects. The multiverse saga is all leading up to the epic crossover events of Avengers 5 and Avengers: Secret Wars. The upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine is set to give a needed jolt to the MCU as they inch closer to these two epic event movies.
Deadpool & Wolverine is expected to set up the events of Avengers: Secret Wars
With the upcoming Deadpool film having a multiversal narrative, it is sure to have some big X-Men cameos and callbacks to the history of Marvel films. Additionally, the film’s events are also expected to set up an important narrative thread for Secret Wars, which will completely reboot the MCU. An underutilized character from the X-Men films may be the key for all this to happen.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is definitely a big deal this year, set to kick off something exciting. For starters, it marks Deadpool’s debut in the MCU, fulfilling a long-held fan desire since the MCU began. Plus, it’s part of a fresh approach aimed at winning back fans’ trust in the franchise and the studio.
The movie seems packed with potential, with rumors flying about cameos and jokes galore. There’s buzz about past X-Men characters making appearances, and in recent interviews, Karan Soni, returning as Dopinder, hinted at lots of surprise appearances, as there were so many folks being on set in London. Soni couldn’t spill the beans on who exactly will cameo, though. He also mentioned that many jokes in the film poke fun at Kevin Feige.
Then, just a few days later, major rumors surfaced, practically confirming that Henry Cavill would appear as a Wolverine variant in the movie.

Walking out of the theater after Ddlj, Jay (Jonathan Groff) launches into a defense of the over-the-top emotionality of Bollywood romances. “I think we’re all embarrassed by the bigness of love,” he declares. His date, Naveen (Karan Soni), is intrigued but skeptical, later recounting the interaction to his work bestie (Peter S. Kim) as a bit weird and kind of corny.
Because A Nice Indian Boy is a rom-com, though, it’s practically a given that Naveen will come around by the end. The film delights in public displays and grand gestures, such that it opens and closes on a pair of weddings. But its real strength lies in its sensitivity toward the messy feelings, smaller acts, and platonic and familial bonds that underlie those epic shows of romance. By the end, even those who don’t fancy themselves the sentimental type — as Naveen doesn’t, and I don...

I did not have Jonathan Groff singing “Tujhe Dekha To Yeh Jana Sanam” on my 2024 bingo card. The Broadway actor humbly steps into Indian culture in Roshan Sethi’s “A Nice Indian Boy,” which repeatedly connects back to Aditya Chopra’s “Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge” — the film that originated “Tujhe Dekha”.
Written by Eric Randall (and based on Madhuri Shekar’s play), “A Nice Indian Boy” is all about subverting stereotypes about Indian culture, both within and outside of the community. The title itself is a cheeky twist on every aunty’s favorite refrain: that when a girl is of the right age, she or her family will find her a “nice Indian boy” to settle down with.
This time, however, protagonist Naveen (Karan Soni) is the one planning to bring home a nice Indian boy, which is probably not what all those aunties were picturing. But “A Nice Indian Boy” delights in defying expectations,...

Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool films were a huge success among fans mainly due to the actor’s major involvement in the creative elements of the script. When the character and the third film in the franchise were included in the MCU, Kevin Feige completely trusted Reynolds with the film. This also meant that Reynolds’ cheeky dialogues would not get an axe from the studio. The Green Lantern actor has reportedly not shown any mercy to Feige himself.

The only thing in Deadpool & Wolverine that Reynolds took some time to convince Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios was the involvement of Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine. Once Jackman too showed interest in returning, Feige decided to greenlit the whole Deadpool vs Wolverine idea.

It’s safe to say that Deadpool & Wolverine is one of the most anticipated films of the year. Even a dual strike from the writers’ and actors’ unions couldn’t slow this new exciting entry down. The comic book frenemy rivalry between Deadpool and Wolverine of the X-Men was only hinted at with actors Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman taking friendly jabs at each other. Now that Disney has acquired Fox and the entire X-Men film franchise, the Merc with a Mouth’s inauguration into the MCU is going to be a crazy universe-bending ride. However, before Disney made its purchase and the Deadpool franchise was planning its third film outside of Marvel Studios, series co-star Karan Soni revealed the original story was a Christmas adventure.

Getting Hugh Jackman to reprise his role as Wolverine in the third “Deadpool” movie had been in the works long before Ryan Reynolds made the official announcement.
In fact, Karan Soni, who plays Dopinder in all three movies, says he wasn’t shocked when Jackman joined franchise. “When we were making the second one, Ryan was plotting back then,” Soni told me Monday at the South Asians at the Oscar party on the Paramount lot. “I remember him spilling that at lunch one day that he had started a conversation with Hugh.

In fact, Karan Soni, who plays Dopinder in all three movies, says he wasn’t shocked when Jackman joined franchise. “When we were making the second one, Ryan was plotting back then,” Soni told me Monday at the South Asians at the Oscar party on the Paramount lot. “I remember him spilling that at lunch one day that he had started a conversation with Hugh. I remember saying, ‘People are going to flip out!’ Then the studio got sold to Disney and a lot of other stuff happened. But, of course, Ryan followed through because it was dream casting.”

Miracle Workers has come to an end. TBS has canceled the anthology comedy series, its last remaining live-action comedy, after four seasons. The Season 4 finale, which is now the series finale, aired August 28.
The cancellation is not entirely unexpected. Deadline’s Nellie Andreeva reported in January that Season 4 could be the last. At the time, she heard that TBS no longer had options on the cast, led by Daniel Radcliffe, so new deals would need to be made for a possible fifth season — a daunting proposition, which networks rarely resort to. But she heard that the series’ creative team had an idea for a potential fifth season that Radcliffe was excited about, so, if Season 4 did well ratings-wise, it was possible that the show could have continued with Radcliffe, who would have needed to make a new pact.
In the fourth season, stars Radcliffe, Steve Buscemi, Geraldine Viswanathan, Karan Soni...

What is special about filmmaker Dibakar Das Roy’s movie ‘Dilli Dark’, which will have its international premiere at the 27th Tallinn Black Night Film Festival in the ‘First Features Competition’, is not just the fact that it manages to bring forth the many shades of the capital city towards an ‘outsider’, but does that with an underlying humour without trivialising a sensitive subject.
Revolving around a Nigerian man, Michael (played by Samuel Abiola Robinson) studying in Delhi, who sells cocaine at night and is subjected to racial slurs and a distinct gaze owing to his skin colour, the film sees him getting attracted to a ‘god woman’, played by Geetika Vidya Ohlyan of ‘Soni’ fame whose ashram he joins in order to find himself. However, he soon realises that all she wants from him is cocaine.

In “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” our hero Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) is transported to a dimension where dozens of other Spider-heroes reside — or at least intersect like threads on a web.
There’s Miguel O’Hara/Spider-Man 2099 (Oscar Isaac), the leader of this Spider Society. His right hand is Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman (Issa Rae), who shares the same superhero name as Gwen Stacy/Spider-Woman (Hailee Steinfeld). You won’t confuse them though, as each hero has his/her own distinct character design and animation style.

Veteran actress Soni Razdan posted a note talking about her time travelling to college or to meet friends in the double-decker Best buses in ‘Bombay’. She said she still remembers the thrill of clambering up the noisy stairs and finding the front seats empty.
Taking to Instagram, Soni posted pictures of the old Best bus and a new one.
She captioned: “And one more icon bids us adieu. Bombay’s and Mumbai’s double-decker bus of yore, which I grew up with … and which I used every day going to college and to meet friends in Colaba. Still remember the thrill of clambering up the noisy stairs and finding the front seats empty. The streets looked fascinating from there.”
“Just one ride gave one so much food for thought. I remember the proximity to some buildings in crowded streets and many a time would get a glimpse into the rooms yonder.

‘Deadpool 3,’ the upcoming threequel of the Deadpool saga and the first movie featuring Merc with a Mouth set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is currently in production, and just today, we got the first look at Ryan Reynolds as the titular character on the movie’s set. We’ve recently learned that the movie will be released six months earlier than expected, so now we’re expecting it to hit theaters next May in less than a year. Hopefully, that will be enough time for the cast and crew to finish the movie at the quality level one such movie deserves.
‘Deadpool 3’ is currently one of the most anticipated MCU movies, and not only due to the fact that the previous two Deadpool movies were equally successful critically and commercially. The upcoming threequel will also bring back Hugh Jackman to the role of Wolverine one more time.

Is AVOD the solution for struggling indie doc filmmakers?
“Beyond Utopia,” “A Still Small Voice,” “Deep Rising,” “It’s Only Life After All,” “Going Varsity in Mariachi,” and “The Grab” are all documentary titles that garnered good reviews, positive audience feedback and plenty of media attention at major film festivals including this year’s Sundance and last year’s Toronto International Film Festival. But despite the high visibility, each title is still seeking distribution.
The chances of any of the six titles garnering a highly coveted distribution deal isn’t likely given the state of the entertainment industry at present. The dismal distribution landscape has forced some nonfiction filmmakers to turn to substantially less lucrative alternatives, such as ad-supported VOD, or AVOD channels, and revenue-sharing arrangements to get their work seen.
That list include filmmakers Violet Columbus and Ben Klein, who directed the 2022 Sundance grand jury prize documentary winner “The Exiles.

Additionally, he appeared opposite his "Deadpool" co-star Ryan Reynolds in "Pokemon Detective Pikachu" in 2019, so Soni has a great set of animated and animation-adjacent projects — as well as Marvel projects — in his back pocket already.
The highly anticipated animated superhero film is the sequel to 2018's "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse," which won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature.

Film director-producer Mahesh Bhatt has completed the narration of his book ‘U G Krishnamurti: A Life’. He said that he wishes to leave his voice for his granddaughter Raha. He also opened up about his upcoming work with Vikram Bhatt.
He said: “I needed to leave my own voice for my grandchild, Alia’s daughter, who is now being called Raha. So someday, years later, she will hear the words of her grandfather talking passionately about this fascinating man whom he has a very intimate relationship with for over the last 30-35 years.”
