Underworld Actress Gives Update On The Long Awaited Blade Sequel

Fans of the ‘Blade’ franchise have eagerly awaited news of a new film hat has been rumored for years. Today, we have a confirmation from an unlikely source, ‘Underworld’s’ Kate Beckinsale who lays the badass character Selene. During this past weekend’s New York Comic Con, Beckinsale was answering questions about her soon to be released sequel ‘Underworld: Blood Wars’ when she was asked about the possible cross-over wanted by the people behind ‘Underworld’. She simply answered, “No. We had that idea. No. They’re busy. They’re doing something with Blade.” That confirms that the sequel is still alive and is in development. Hopefully we will see it sooner rather than later. Rumors have come that say the new Marvel film will be based on Wesley Snipe’s vampire hunting character, while others say that it will be about Blade’s daughter Fallon Grey. A new series was in the works for a Fallon Grey last year, but there has been no update on

The True Story That Inspired The Nurses Of American Horror Story: Roanoke

Season six of American Horror Story is now under way, the theme, ‘My Roanoke Nightmare’. This season is set up like a show, ‘My Roanoke Nightmare’. Odds are you ave seen those ghost shows like ‘My Ghost Story’ which reenact people’s experiences with paranormal activity. This season is heavy with true story inspired details. In the premiere AHS revealed the season’s connection to The Lost Colony, the true story of the disappearance of 117 people in 1590 in Roanoke, North Carolina. Episode two introduced two murderous sisters who served as nurses (Maya Berko, Kristen Rakes) while murdering patients, whose first letters of their names made up the word “Murder”.

The First Trailer Is Here For ‘Midnight, Texas’ The New Supernatural Series From NBC

The first trailer is here for NBC/Universal’s new supernatural series ‘Midnight, Texas‘ from Niels Arden Oplev (Mr. Robot) who is directing from the script written by Monica Breen, producer for ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D’. ‘Midnight, Texas’, an adaption of Charlaine Harris’ novels and is closely tied to ‘True Blood’, will be very different. There is a good chance that the two series will have a cross-over at some point. Vampires, witches, werewolves and the supernatural will be central to the story of the new show. While it looks normal from the outside, Midnight is a safe haven for all supernatural beings, as well as humans, fortune tellers and other outcasts. In the town your neighbor could be a human, a vampire, a werewolf or even an angel, together they form a family. They residents must deal with bikers, police and other challenges, all while coping with each other. The lead role of Manfred Bernardo, a powerful psychic and the new guy

Interview With Thomas Dekker Writer-Director Of Jack Goes Home

Earlier today, I had the pleasure of speaking with writer-actor-director-musician Thomas Dekker. Dekker proved to be a well-spoken, kind, passionate, insightful man whose main driving force is simply to create, rather it be on film or stage. At 28, Dekker already has more experience in the film industry than many actors will see in a lifetime. His first role at only the age of four. In 1995 he played the role of David in ‘Village of the Damned’. His career has been non-stop since. In 2010’s reboot of ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street,’ he played one of the main characters, Jesse. In the hit series ‘Heroes’ he co-starred as Zach. You should recognize Dekker as John Connor from ‘Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles’ or from his role on ‘The Secret Circle’. The list goes on. To say that he’s been a part of a lot of amazing films and series is an understatement. Now, he has turned his attention to

Concluding the huge Walking Dead panel at this weekend’s New York Comic Con, AMC took a bold step and revealed a new sneak peek clip of the season 7 premiere, titled “Right Hand Man”. In the premiere we will finally find out who Negan beat to death. The new clip gives several major clues. Warning! Stop reading now if you want to avoid spoilers! First, we see Rick’s face splattered with blood, meaning that the victim was close. After Rick looks Negan in the eye and says, “I’m going to kill you.” Negan puts the bat in Rick’s face and asks, “What? I didn’t quite catch that you’re going to have to speak up.” Rick responds, “Not today. Not tomorrow. But I’m going to kill you.” That’s our Rick. At this point Negan grabs him and drags him towards the RV before the clip ends. One of the hardest parts of the clip is that when Rick is dragged away
