Bleeding Cool has spotted a Tweet from Punisher: War Zone and Supergirl director Lexi Alexander which seemingly reveals yet another filmmaker who is being considered by Marvel Studios to take the helm of Captain Marvel. Confirming that she personally isn't in talks to take on the gig, Alexander says that Rachel Talalay is. She's a director who has worked on Doctor Who, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow. It's also thought that she'll take the helm of the first episode of Sherlock season four. Talalay also helmed cult favourite movie Tank Girl and the relatively obscure Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare. There's a possibility that Alexander has got her wires crossed here and that Marvel may have already passed on Talalay, but she's certainly a very interesting candidate. We'll just have to wait and see. For now, Inside Out's Meg LeFauve is writing the screenplay alongside Guardians of the Galaxy...

With Independence Day falling on a Monday, the holiday weekend’s three-day totals so far took a sweet jump over 2015, when the 4th fell on Saturday. After a slow summer, the result is the best increase over the equivalent weekend in some time; three films topped $30 million for the three days, all better than any last year.
The top spot was nabbed both last weekend and in 2015 by a Pixar film in its third week. Incredibly though “Finding Dory” is now 50% ahead of “Inside Out” through the same period, with a clear path to the best total of the year, at least until December’s “Star Wars” entry takes its shot.

“The Legend of Tarzan” exceeded predictions, but is far from home-free in recouping its $180-million cost (plus marketing). That’s no worry for the $10 million “The Purge: Election Year,...

The 2016 Golden Globe Awards were held last night; it was a long one but thanks to host Ricky Gervais, it was anything but boring. The Revenant took home Best Picture – Drama, Best Director for Alejandro G. Iñárritu, and Best Actor for Leonardo DiCaprio. Some might hope that Leos’ Oscar chances are a lock now, but let’s remember that for some strange reason he didn’t win for Wolf of Wall Street. The Academy has already closed voting for Oscar nominations, so this award show has no claim to much.
The Martian won Best Picture – Comedy and Best Actor in a Comedy for Matt Damon, while the Best Actress honors went to Brie Larson for Room and Jennifer Lawrence for Joy. And our favorite actress, Kate Winslet, won for her supporting role in Steve Jobs.Also, Sylvester Stallone won for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Creed; his last...

The Golden Globes awards ceremony concluded this evening with The Revenant sweeping much of the top categories, and The Martian hilariously picking up Best Comedy. If one is disappointed by the results, at least have some solace knowing Ennio Morricone won for his work on The Hateful Eight. Check out the film winners below, along with a relevant disclaimer.
Imagine all the awards Mad Max: Fury Road would win if their awards campaign was based solely around how difficult the shoot was.

This year's nominations for the Golden Globes in January have been announced by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Despite all the slamming the organisation and awards get in the media, they are still the most anticipated awards for film and television outside those two industry's two major ceremonies (Oscars, Emmys).
Leading the film pack this year is "Carol" with five nominations; followed by "Steve Jobs," "The Big Short" and "The Revenant" with four nominations each. Some surprises were in store - Mark Ruffalo nominated for his own "Infinitely Polar Bear" rather than his acclaimed turn in "Spotlight," numerous nods for Starz's popular "Outlander" and welcome nods for Eva Green and Rachel Bloom.
Notable snubs completely shut out include no acting nods for "Spotlight," no Johnny Depp for "Black Mass" or Tom Hardy for "The Revenant," and no recognition for "House of Cards," "Homeland," or "The Affair". Also, and amusingly so,...
