Disney+ has ordered a pilot for “Spaceship Earth,” a series inspired by EPCOT’s legendary dark ride. Casting is underway, though no names have been announced so far. From Ride to the Small Screen Rather than a quiet, slow-moving tram ride, the show is swinging for a high-concept, multi-timeline apocalypse story, Variety reports. The official logline reads: “When a mission to avert an imminent global cataclysm goes awry, a small band of teenagers from Earth’s past and future must join forces to confront a threat as vast and mysterious as time itself.” The History Since EPCOT opened its gates in 1982, Spaceship Earth has served as the park’s visual anchor and spiritual heart, housing a beloved journey through the evolution of human communication inside an 18-story structural marvel.

Ryan Murphy Plans to Slow Down, But First He’s Working on a Vampire Series

If there is one absolute constant in Hollywood, it is that the Ryan Murphy production calendar looks like a high-stakes game of television Tetris. Between preparing for “American Horror Story” Season 13 and getting ready to unleash “Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story,” the prolific creator remains the undisputed master of keeping audiences perpetually unsettled. Yet during a candid interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Murphy offered a rare glimpse into his future. He’s admitting that he will likely need to dial back his output in the coming years. Why? To spend more time with his three young children. “You have to figure out what you’re interested in doing next, and I’m lucky enough that I have really great partners who want to do this and that. I haven’t figured it out yet,” Murphy explains. “I have many things coming out between August and Christmas, and I’m sort of plotting out my next two years. I don’t think I’ll ever do as

Sharpen Your Machetes: Danny Trejo Battles the Devil in PCB’s New Graphic Novel ‘Year of the Devil’

Hold onto your holy water! The icon himself, Danny Trejo, is stepping off the big screen and onto the comic page for PCB’s most ambitious, blood-soaked original graphic novel to date, Year of the Devil!

Praise the Lord and Pass the Bug Spray: The Prehistoric Spider Movie ‘Don’t Move’ Unleashes Its Trailer

If you thought a youth pastor with an acoustic guitar was the scariest thing that could happen on a church retreat, think again. Don’t Move, the upcoming creature feature, pits a pious wilderness trip against an oversized, ancient arachnid, promising a high-octane, web-slinging slaughterhouse. Adapted from the 2020 bestselling novel by James “Murr” Murray (yes, the guy from Impractical Jokers) and Darren Wearmouth, the film turns a routine Ozark outing into a terrifying game of Red Light, Green Light—with massive, fanged consequences. Silent, Sightless, and Starving When a church group’s annual retreat strays off the beaten path in the Ozark woods, members start vanishing. Naturally, the pious finger-pointing begins immediately, with the group placing the blame on Ricky, the local bad-boy troublemaker. The reality, however, is far more hideous. Deep in the thicket lies a labyrinth of thick webs guarded by a prehistoric, vibration-sensitive giant spider. The creature can’t see its prey; however, it feels every single heartbeat, footstep, and
