John Wick: Chapter 4 director Chad Stahelski explains exactly why he opted to scrap the movie’s “Hollywood-esque” alternate ending. According to John Wick: Chapter 4 director Chad Stahelski, both he and test audiences didn't enjoy the movie's tropey alternate ending. Speaking to Josh Horowitz on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, the filmmaker explained why he wanted to create two different versions of the final scene and what prompted him to use the one that made it into the theatrical cut. When asked if he ever filmed an ending that saw John Wick standing over his own grave, Stahelski confirmed that while that specific moment never transpired, the creative team did something very similar. "We did that, and people around us asked, 'Well, what happens if you did see it?' and you're like, 'fair enough,'" the director explained. "I had a little time. We'll shoot this, and it's just a shot revealing John and stuff, and my only caveat was l...

David Ayer insists some people believed he was in the running to take over DC’s movies before his movie Suicide Squad flopped with critics.

Speaking on the Real Ones with Jon Bernthal podcast, the filmmaker explained that he'd heard talk of some executives throwing his name around to become the head of DC's movies shortly before Suicide Squad hit theaters. "During a time, during Suicide Squad, when the dailies were coming in, people were like 'Oh shit, maybe Ayer’s going to take over DC,'" Ayer said. "It’s 'Game of Thrones in there. The palace politics were insane." While there was a substantial amount of excitement for Suicide Squad leading up to its 2016 release, the film was ultimately a bust for DC and Warner Bros.

"It doesn't have to be all subtitled, all in English, there's a way to express that. Anyone that knows the game, it's a fantastic story...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is coming closer and closer to debuting its brand-new rendition of the X-Men.

Captain Christopher Pike is a sociable Captain in Strange New Worlds and he must have emulated crew dinners from Archer on Star Trek: Enterprise. Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount) in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds must have learned one big lesson from his predecessor, Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula) of Star Trek: Enterprise. Archer was the first Captain of the Enterprise, and his 22nd-century exploration of the galaxy aboard the NX-01 Enterprise is legendary. In Strange New Worlds' crossover with Star Trek: Lower Decks, Captain Pike revealed his high regard for what Archer and the NX-01 Enterprise achieved. By virtue of Star Trek: Enterprise's retcons as a prequel, Jonathan Archer pioneered several aspects as Captain of the Enterprise that his successors became known for. For instance, Archer was the first Captain to have a Vulcan Science Officer, as Subcommander T'Pol (Jolene Blalock) would predate Mr. Spock (Ethan Peck, Leonard Nimoy) by nearly a century. Arche...

In The Equalizer franchise, Denzel Washington plays Robert McCall, a former U.S. Marine and DIA officer who takes vigilante justice to a new level. Denzel Washington's Robert McCall has racked up a high kill count in The Equalizer franchise. Meant to be a trilogy of films, the first Equalizer movie premiered in 2014, with the sequel following four years later. The prolific crime-fighter never ceases to impress, whether he's dual-wielding pistols, tricking enemies into electrocuting themselves, or taking down foes with a nail gun from his Boston-based hardware store. Despite the number of people's killed across two movies, McCall isn't in the business of murder or vigilante justice. Instead, he uses his skills to help innocent people escape harrowing situations. In the first film, for example, he befriends a young woman (Chloë Grace Moretz), who's later revealed to be a victim of the Russian mob's human trafficking ring. In The Equalizer 2, things take a more per...
