Dynamite announces another hit title from its licensed Disney line coming to store shelves and fans' collections, as Disney Villains: Cruella De Vil is collected into a graphic novel this holiday season!
Even though there's absolutely no hard evidence that Cruella was ever involved in the theft of any Dalmatian puppies, her name has been tarnished across all the tabloids and gossipers, and now her reputation in the fashion world is hanging on by a thread. Which pushes her to be willing to do anything to restore her good name, including an epic jewelry heist!
The astonishingly talented Sweeney Boo (Marvel Action: Captain Marvel, Over My Dead Body) teams up with the continentally sophisticated Miriana Puglia to embroider an essential new chapter in the legacy of one of Disney's most complex and beloved characters.
This new collected edition features the complete published series, plus every gorgeous variant cover in a gallery. At around 130 pages, it's packed full of fun. The book will be available as either a paperback or a hardcover. Both editions are being produced at dimensions of 6 by 9 inches, a digest size ideal for readers of all ages. Both feature a stunning cover by Sweeney Boo. The DISNEY VILLAINS: CRUELLA DE VIL hardcover and paperback collections are solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ September 2024 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in November 2024. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the book with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!

JOEL KINNAMAN SAYS HE'D NEVER BE ON A SHOW LIKE PEACEMAKER10/05/24 @ 12:39 pm EST
Source: Screen Rant | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentJoel Kinnaman wants fans to know that he would never appear on HBO’s
Peacemaker series. The actor played the role of Rick Flag Jr. in both iterations of the
Suicide Squad films with his character dying in the most recent that was directed by
James Gunn. It’s also the film that
John Cena was introduced as Peacemaker and he is the one that killed Flag. Moving forward Gunn has cast
Frank Grillo to play Rick Flag Sr and he will appear in the animated
Creature Commandos, the live-action
Superman and season 2 of
Peacemaker. Earlier this year, the director of the second season, Peter Sollett, tagged Kinnaman in a show wrap post (later deleted), which made some believe that Rick Flag Jr. would show up somehow.
Screen Rant asked Kinnaman about returning to the DC Universe: “I don’t know what to say. That’s ridiculous. I would never. I would never be on a show like that. It’s not what I do. It’s not what I do.” It almost sounds like he’s insulting the series. Could this be a cover to keep his appearance a secret or is there something more to it?
JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX IS NOT FAIRING WELL IN THEATERS10/05/24 @ 12:19 pm EST
Source: Deadline | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentTodd Phillips’ original
Joker movie was a major hit, making over a billion dollars which is stunning for a R rated movie. He originally said there would be no sequel, but that changed and with the pairing of
Lady Gaga with
Joaquin Phoenix,
Joker: Folie à Deux was born. The problem is this is a very different film from the first one. The term Jukebox Musical was mentioned a few months back and some fans started getting worried. It’s opening weekend and the film is on track to make about $47 million or less. That’s well shy of the $96 million opening of the 2019 original. What made the original do well was the word of mouth. People loved it and told their friends. Reactions to the sequel have been horrible. The film got a “D” Cinemascore, the lowest for any comic book movie. Post Traks had it at half a star and over on Rotten Tomatoes, both the critics and audience agree giving it a meager 32%. So how did this film happen? Why didn’t the studio stop it? Well, Phillips has a history with Warner Bros, bringing in $2.5 billion between the first
Joker and
the Hangover films.
TEYANA TAYLOR, SASHA CALLE JOIN DAMON & AFFLECK IN THRILLER ‘RIP’10/04/24 @ 2:58 pm EST
Source: Deadline | Categories: MIsc | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentTeyana Taylor and Sasha Calle have joined the ensemble of the upcoming Netflix crime thriller
RIP starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, with Joe Carnahan directing. Deadline first reported the news that the package had hit the market back in June, before Netflix scooped it up ahead of the Fourth of July holiday. Carnahan also penned the script, with Affleck, Damon, Luciana Damon and Dani Bernfeld producing for Artists Equity. The plot follows a group of Miami cops whose trust begins to fray after they discover millions in cash in a derelict stash house. As outside forces learn about the size of the seizure, everything is called into question — including who they can rely on. Michael Joe and Kevin Halloran of Artists Equity will executive produce.
LA OPERA PRESENTING 1931 SPANISH-LANGUAGE ‘DRACULA’ WITH LIVE ORCHESTRA, NEW SCORE10/04/24 @ 2:53 pm EST
Source: Hollywood Reporter | Categories: Dracula | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentJust in time for Halloween, the LA Opera has put together a spectacular treat for movie and music lovers: a screening of the rarely-seen 1931 Spanish-language
Dracula, complete with a newly-commissioned score by two-time Oscar-winning composer Gustavo Santaolalla. The music will be played live by the LA Opera Orchestra under the direction of resident conductor Lina González-Granados. The Argentine-born Santaolalla, 73, also will play electric guitar (but not his signature ronroco). Suitably, the screenings on Oct. 25, 26 and 27 will take place at the gothic United Theater — a 1,600-seat palace that first opened in 1927 — in downtown Los Angeles. There will be English subtitles, and the audience is invited to come in costume. (via The Hollywood Reporter)
BOX OFFICE: 'JOKER: FOLIE à DEUX' MAKES $7M IN PREVIEWS10/04/24 @ 2:42 pm EST
Source: Deadline | Categories: DC | Comments (0) | E-mail Article | Add a CommentWarner Bros’ Todd Phillips-directed sequel
Joker: Folie à Deux earned $7M in previews that began at 3 p.m. Thursday. The number indicates that the $190M+ movie could get to a $50M opening, particularly when comped against movies that exceeded that threshold in their starts such as
Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning – Part One ($7M last year),
No Time to Die ($6.3M in 2021) and
John Wick: Chapter 3: Parabellum ($5.9M in 2019). Forget about the fact that
Joker 2's previews are off by 47% from the first 2019 film’s $13.3M, which mushroomed to a $39.3M Friday and the biggest October domestic opening of all time with $96.2M. We knew that was going to happen. What’s not funny is the Comscore/Screen Engine PostTrak audience exits for
Joker 2, which tell a different story. While many knew this Joaquin Phoenix-Lady Gaga combo would be challenged due to the fact that it’s a musical, the fanboys full-out seemed to reject the sequel last night on PostTrak with a 1/2 star and 40% positive. Holy guacamole, Batman! (via Deadline)
