Discussing Film.net is reporting that the Disney+ ‘Cassian Andor’ series is moving forward and is currently eyeing to begin filming in June. The series will shoot in Europe.
This news comes following the announcement that the series was almost cancelled at Disney+ until Tony Gilroy, who also worked on the extensive reshoots for
Rogue One, joined the project. He will write the pilot as well as direct multiple episodes of the series with
The Americans’ Stephen Schaffer set to helm the series as its showrunner.
The untitled series focuses on Rebel agent Cassian Andor prior to the events of
Rogue One in the early days of the Rebellion against the Empire. The show has been described as a “spy thriller” when plans for it were first revealed last year. It was also previously announced that Alan Tudyk will reprise his role as K-2SO from
Rogue One alongside Diego Luna as Cassian Andor.
Also reported was that the series will be using flashbacks to show Cassian Andor’s early days.

A search is ongoing to find another actor. Production on the show is scheduled to begin next year in New Zealand, where Peter Jackson's
LOTR film trilogy also filmed.

The one condition of Daphne's residency at the Rycroft Manor is that no one can ever find out about the ghosts and so far, Daphne is crushing it. Only, like, four people have found out. It's fine! Except, maybe not, because the most recent person to find out is her ultra-religious former roommate who knows too much about exorcism for comfort.

Variety reports that HBO Max is developing a series based on the Grisworld family from the

ROBERT KIRKMAN & CHRIS SAMNEE TO LAUNCH NEW ONGOING COMIC BOOK SERIES 'FIRE POWER' THIS MAY 12/12/19 @ 3:49 pm EST
Source: Image | Categories: Image | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentThe New York Times bestselling, Eisner Award winning comics titan Robert Kirkman (
Oblivion Song, The Walking Dead) is teaming with Eisner winning artist Chris Samnee (
Daredevil), Eisner Award winning colorist Matt Wilson (
Paper Girls, The Wicked + The Divine), and letterer Rus Wooton (
The Walking Dead), to bring fans an all-new, full color, action-packed ongoing series—
Fire Power—which will launch from Image/Skybound in May 2020.
“Getting to create a whole new world with its own mythology and rules is always the highlight of my life. Getting to do that with Chris Samnee is definitely a high water mark in this dusty old career of mine,” said Kirkman. “With a massive cast of characters populating this sprawling globe-spanning epic Chris has proven more than adept at handling anything I've thrown at him in the time we've been toiling away on this series in secret. Kung Fu, Fireballs, Chris Samnee, crazy action, Chris Samnee, Chris Samnee. What more could I say to get you excited about this book?”
This is the first new project from Kirkman since the surprise conclusion to his pop culture phenomenon
The Walking Dead.
Fire Power will more than fill a walker-sized hole in your monthly pull list. This new series also marks Samnee's return to comics after wrapping up his bestselling run on
Captain America that concluded in early 2018.
Owen Johnson's journey to China to learn about his birth parents eventually leads him to a mysterious Shaolin Temple. The students there study to rediscover the Fire Power, the lost art of throwing fireballs. A power they claim will be needed soon to save the world. Will Owen Johnson be the first person in a thousand years to wield the Fire Power?











BOX OFFICE PREVIEW: 'JUMANJI 2' TO LEAD EARLY CHRISTMAS CRUSH WITH $40M-$50M12/12/19 @ 2:59 pm EST
Source: Hollywood Reporter | Categories: MIsc | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a Comment
THR reports that, as the year-end holidays get underway in earnest this weekend with the debut of Sony's all-audience event sequel
Jumanji: The Next Level, Clint Eastwood's drama
Richard Jewell and the microbudgeted Blumhouse/Universal slasher remake
Black Christmas.
Jumanji 2 is expected to top the chart with a debut in the $40 million to $50 million range, although Sony is being more conservative in suggesting $35 million.
Movies opening close to Christmas aren't traditionally known for big openings — outside of the recent
Star Wars pics — but rather count on strong multiples during the final two weeks of the year.
This time out,
Jumanji 2 opted to open a week before
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, whereas the 2017
Jumanji:
Welcome to the Jungle rode into theaters Dec. 20 with a $36 million domestic debut a week after
Star Wars: The Last Jedi launched to $220 million.
Despite competition from
The Last Jedi and other titles,
Welcome to the Jungle went on to earn $404.5 million in North America and $962.1 million globally. (The challenge for
Next Level — which sees the return of stars Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart — is to avoid being infected by the sequelitis bug that has doomed a number of franchise installments this year.)
