Ryan Reynolds metPeloton Commercial GirlMonica Ruiz for the first time during a new interview. Ruiz has seen some pretty radical changes in her life over the past few weeks. First, there was the now-infamous Peloton ad that caused quite the backlash online. Ruiz plays a wife whose husband buys her an exercise bike for Christmas. The internet blew up over the commercial, which is when Reynolds and his Aviation Gin company stepped in and made a parody, which stars Ruiz....

There is no point in even talking about anything else right now. After teasing it since the end of last season, HBO finally took us toShogun Worldin this week’s episode ofWestworld. So, did it meet the expectations and buildup? Let’s dig in, shall we? This week’s episode ofWestworld, titledAkane No Mai, did a few things, but we spent the vast majority of our time with Maeve (Thandie Newton) and her not-so-merry band of misfits in the land of the Shogun....

After more contradictory statements, fake outs, and teases than the average Disney trailer, Daniel Craig finally bowed out of the James Bond franchise in 2021 withNo Time To Die.

The movie follows a group of twenty-somethings who decide to ride out a massive hurricane in a mansion, though their cavorting quickly sours when one of the friends is found dead. The film features many grizzly death scenes, yet even the film’s goriest moments are generally brought about by slapstick mistakes and comic misunderstandings....

It seems thatBlade Runner 2049couldn’t continue the fall hot streak at the box office. Last month, it seemed that the slumping summer months were cured byIT’s record breaking opening weekend, and while that has gone on to become the highest-grossing horror movie of all time, and one of this year’s highest-grossing movies, it seemed to be just a temporary solution to the industry’s box office woes. Last weekend, the highly-anticipatedBlade Runner 2049underperformed and opened with just $32....

Her character can jump between universes as her superpower, something that’s very intriguing for Steven Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch).

Over the past four seasons ofThe Boys, the show has peeled back the layers ofAntony Starr’s Homelander. In a recent interview, the actor revealed that Season 5 will depict the character in his weakest state yet, as we will see the powerful supe physically vulnerable for the first time.

K-Dramasare rising in popularity, from the typical light-hearted romance to the intense horrors and thrillers that are bringing in new fans. But,no matter what the genre, one important aspect we love to see is a strong female lead. “Strong” can mean a lot of things, many that stray from a physically capable, emotionally-devoid woman that is often a depiction of the term. It can mean having the courage to be vulnerable, to be brave enough to stay true to herself and her dreams, or toface adversity and overcome it....
