Daria Nicolodi, the Italian actress and screenwriter who appeared in such cult classics as Deep Red and Inferno, has died, according to her daughter, Asia Argento. She was 70.

A cause of death was not given.

Nicolodi was born on June 19, 1950, in Florence, Tuscany, Italy. Her career spanned decades with nearly 40 acting credits to her name. Along with appearing in such classics as Deep Red and Inferno, Nicolodi starred in 1977's Shock, which marked the final film of Italian horror auteur Mario Bava.

Nicolodi had a romantic relationship with director Dario Argento, whom she met in 1974 during the production of Deep Red. The couple had one child, Asia Argento. (via THR)

Nicolodi is survived by her daughter and granddaughter.

Even with their most fantastical stories, Pixar films are often rooted in personal, relatable and very human experiences ripped straight from the heads and hearts of its filmmakers. Take Inside Out, which Pete Docter drew from the changing emotions of his own daughter, or last year’s Onward, which took specific moments and memories from the life of director Dan Scanlon before wrapping them in elves and D&D references. The legendary animation studio’s next movie, Luca, is another mix of fact and folklore – the first feature from director Enrico Casarosa, who previously helmed short La Luna.

Luca tells the story of a young boy and his friend who appear completely human and normal when they're out of the water, but they are really mysterious sea creatures. Their lives begin to change when they befriend a young girl on the surface. This week, Empire released a brand new photo from the film, and you can check it out below.

Luca is set to hit theaters on June 18th.

Newly discovered promotional artwork for Marvel's Eternals movie offers a new glimpse at the characters in their costumes. Marvel's Eternals takes place after the events of Avengers: Endgame. The film will involve both the Celestials and the Deviants, part of Jack Kirby's wider cosmic mythology. In the comics, the Celestials created the Eternals as an evolutionary offshoot of humanity. The Celestials intended them to be the protectors of the Earth. The Deviants, another evolutionary branch, instead seeks to wipe out humanity. Director Chloé Zhao helms the Marvel Studios film adaptation. Zhao also says she wrote the screenplay, though Marvel hasn't updated the film's official credits to reflect that yet. (via ComicBook)

Matt Damon has reportedly joined the already stacked cast of Thor: Love and Thunder.

The Direct reports that, according to numerous Australian news outlets, the Academy Award winner landed in Sydney, Australia Saturday via a private jet to begin his mandatory quarantine ahead of production.

While he is yet to star in an MCU project, Damon is no stranger to the Marvel Universe, and specifically the Thor franchise. He previously had a cameo in Thor: Ragnarok as an actor playing Loki in the Asgardian stage play at the beginning of that film.

It is unknown what role in the film Damon might play.

Thor: Love and Thunder is set to hit theaters on February 11, 2022.

The CW has released photos for "Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Preppy Murders", the second episode of Riverdale's fifth season.

Riverdale returns on Wednesday, January 20th at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW. "Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Preppy Murders" airs Wednesday, January 27th.

As of December 2020, the rights to Daredevil returned to Marvel Studios following Netflix cancelling Hornhead’s TV series two years prior. The ball is now in Kevin Feige’s court when it comes to reintroducing Matt Murdock and his assembled supporting cast back into the MCU, then, although he’s officially keeping quiet on whether that’s happening right now. The widespread feeling is, however, that the characters of Daredevil will return, and probably sooner rather than later.

That includes the hero’s archenemy, too, as We Got This Covered reports that Vincent D’Onofrio is currently in talks to reprise his role as Wilson Fisk AKA Kingpin in the MCU.

It is unknown exactly what form this comeback would take, but we’re being told that the actor has begun early talks to return as the master villain. Of course, D’Onofrio’s powerhouse turn as Fisk across Daredevil seasons 1 and 3 (as well as a guest spot in season 2) was one of the most wholly acclaimed parts of the show, so it’s no surprise that he’s being invited back.

Also, let us not forget that Kingpin began his comic book life as a Spider-Man foe in Amazing Spider-Man #50.
