Now in its 14th edition, Final Cut supports films in post-production from all African countries and six countries in Middle East: Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria and Yemen. The story focuses on two lovers, Madi and Djino, forced to acknowledge Madi’s child after she experiences pregnancy denial. “I chose to tackle pregnancy denial because, beyond the realities of my own society, I wanted to explore something truly universal and intense,” the director told Variety.

CBS is pulling Mark Harmon’s Gibbs out of Alaska — and out of retirement?! — in “NCIS: Origins” Season 3. The network unveiled a trailer for the “NCIS” prequel’s third season on Tuesday, showing Harmon’s Gibbs packing up a bag and hopping onto a boat, telling his dog it’s “time to get to work.” “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in,” he announces. Present-day Gibbs is later seen walking into what appears to be his old Major Case Response Team office. (We’d recognize those orange walls anywhere!) As…
Andrew Garfield is out of the loop. The British actor has been unplugged lately, so much so that he still hasn’t seen Spider-Man: Brand New Day or The Odyssey. As a result, he certainly wasn’t tracking the recent marketing confusion surrounding his new film The Uprising. On Aug. 20, the campaign for Paul Greengrass’ period action drama seemingly rebranded itself as a stealth Robin Hood movie, prompting a collective “wait, what!?” from the internet. It appeared that the film had been retitled The Uprising: The Rise of Robin Hood, though the subtitle was later clarified to be a tagline rather…

Stranger Things hasn’t been over for even a full year and we still can’t get the Netflix classic out of our minds. As one of the biggest, if not the biggest, shows of the streaming era, we might never stop thinking about the series and its talented cast. Well, it’s hard not to think of the cast when they’re busy making new Netflix movies, scoring hit singles, and achieving amazing award wins.Throughout the five-season, nearly 10-year run of Stranger Things, none of the main cast members won an Emmy Award for their performance in the show. Millie Bobby Brown and…
Filmmakers like to talk about how their movies are hand-crafted — and then there’s Wildwood. The stop-motion animated feature has been painstakingly created over the course of nearly two decades, and while it wasn’t quite ready to screen at the Telluride Film Festival, the filmmakers did have a few stunning sneak peek clips on hand to share with the audience ahead of the release, which is set for Oct. 23. “This is like a time warp, because some of those scenes were shot almost six years ago,” said director Travis Knight, who took the stage alongside cinematographer Caleb Deschanel. “It takes…
Who Are Jessica Pegula’s Parents? Jessica is the daughter of Terry Pegula and Kim Pegula, who own the NFL team the Buffalo Bills. The pair purchased the organization in 2014, three years after they bought local NHL team the Buffalo Sabres.

Originally from Pennsylvania, Terry built his fortune in oil…
Here’s an ominous phrase when one is speaking about Godzilla: “We didn’t finish the job like we thought.” That’s the opening line of the English-subtitled first trailer for Godzilla Minus Zero, Takashi Yamazaki‘s sequel that is set two years after the events to his 2023 hit Godzilla Minus One. Equally troubling is this from logline for the new film: Just as humanity managed to cling to a hard-won peace, a new threat strikes, crushing hope in an instant. There is no third time. Everything ends here. Watch the trailer above. It’s 1949 Japan, and Ryunosuke Kamiki returns as Kōichi Shikishima,…

I’m going to be proactive, and hyper-cautious, and issue a major spoiler warning right at the top of this review of Casey Affleck’s third directorial effort, Company. It’s impossible to talk about the movie without giving away a crucial element of the picture, which was kept quite hidden from press here in Venice. If you’d like to go into the film (whenever it’s released) as blind as I was, then read no further. Company has been billed as a mystery-drama involving interconnected stories spread across multiple decades. In the 1970s, a woman who’s lost her way essentially crashes a convivial…
