Cate Blanchett Wants to See Bob Dylan Deal with Bog People Collider Interviews 2024-10-18 | Cate Blanchett is one of the most accomplished and decorated actors of her generation, having accumulated a whopping eight Academy Award nominations and winning two for The Aviator and Blue Jasmine. Not only that, but she has immense range, shining in everything from historical romances like Carol to dark psychological dramas like Tár to fantasy franchises like The Lord of the Rings. Guy Maddin’s satirical Rumours allows her to show yet a different side as quirky, socially awkward German Chancellor Hilda Ortmann.French actor Denis Ménochet has had quite an impressive career as well, recently appearing in Ari Aster’s Beau Is Afraid, Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch, and, perhaps most famously, Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds. His character Sylvain Broulez, the President of France, often butts heads with Ortmann as they try to one-up each other at the annual G7 Summit — something that becomes problematic when things begin descending into chaos. Will they be able to work together to finish their statement about the global crisis going on? Or will bog bodies and a giant brain prove too much to handle?Collider got the chance to speak to Blanchett and Ménochet about being inspired by real-life politicians like Angela Merkel, what they love about Guy Maddin’s films, the similarities between Hollywood and politics, and more.#rumours #cateblanchett #DenisMenochet For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

It's a Herculean feat to dream up an original nightmare like this one, but to have it so positively received is another triumph entirely.

The Penguin: Colin Farrell Loves Getting Lost in Prosthetics Collider Interviews 2024-10-13 | From executive producer Matt Reeves, the eight-episode DC Studios/HBO series The Penguin, which takes place after the events of The Batman and prior to the upcoming sequel, places Oz Cobb (Colin Farrell) in the center of Gotham’s criminal underworld. At the same time, Sofia Falcone (Cristin Milioti), mob boss Carmine Falcone’s daughter, free from Arkham Asylum and wondering what comes next for her in a boys’ club of organized crime that’s not welcoming her with open arms. Unsure of where things stand between her and Oz, she’ll find out soon enough, as she vies for control of her late father’s empire.The Penguin’s story began in The Batman, where he was not yet the crime lord of Gotham that he eventually evolves into. But the wheels were set in motion for him to continue down a path that would get him to that very place. Because The Batman had a lot of ground to cover, the character’s time in his story was just far too brief, so this TV series was born out of that, to fill in some blanks prior to the sequel.During this interview with Collider, Farrell and prosthetics designer Mike Marino talked about the process of fine-tuning the character’s appearance, where they drew inspiration from for the final look, the deep psychological and emotional dive into character for the series, and getting to know Oz, inside and out.#ThePenguin #ColinFarrell #MikeMarinoFor interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story: Nathan Lane & Ari Graynor Interview Collider Interviews 2024-10-13 | Nathan Lane has had an impressive career both onstage and on the screen, and these past few years have been especially great for him in terms of television, with the actor appearing on critically acclaimed shows like Only Murders in the Building and The Gilded Age. While Ari Graynor is slightly newer to the game, her resume is stacked in its own right, with credits like Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Whip It, and The Disaster Artist.The two make for delicious enemies in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, which centers on the high-profile 1989 murders of José (Javier Bardem) and Kitty Menendez (Chloë Sevigny) by their sons, Lyle (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Erik (Cooper Koch), with the two alleging years of sexual abuse. Lane takes on the role of Dominick Dunne, a Vanity Fair writer who covered the murder trial extensively and is skeptical of the boys’ story. Graynor plays Erik’s relentless but compassionate lawyer Leslie Abramson. The two’s equally strong and vastly different opinions on the matter lead them to butt heads, and seeing Lane and Graynor play off each other in this way is endlessly entertaining.Collider got the chance to speak with Lane and Graynor about their characters and some of their most intense scenes, including the breathtaking Episode 5 (the entirety of which is one long take of Graynor and Koch in an interrogation room) and Lane’s heartbreaking conversation about his daughter with a cater waiter.#menendezbrothers #nathanlane #AriGraynorFor interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Season 4 Part 1 of Outer Banks just debuted on Netflix, and wow, is it a chaotic ride. From the peaceful life after building their beloved Poguelandia to fighting underwater against mercenaries, the Pogues quickly go from a relatively domestic life after the events of El Dorado to a new adventure seeking out the treasure of Blackbeard. Despite surviving the likes of Carlos Singh (Andy McQueen) and Ward Cameron (Charles Esten), you'd think our band of misfits would have it a bit easier, but after a series of poor financial choices and bad luck leads them to needing more money, the Pogues go back to what they're best at. This time there's pirates and curses, but what remains true for the show is that it continues to have some shocking plot twists. By the time Part 1 is over, we're already clamoring for Part 2.We spoke with Madelyn Cline and Madison Bailey about Season 4 Part 1 to dig into some of the major developments of the season as well as look deeper into their characters' interactions with the other people in their lives. Cline talked specifically about Sarah's complicated relationship with her brother Rafe (Drew Starkey), discussing if there's potential for reconciliation one day. She also touches on the loss of Sarah's father after Season 3 and how Sarah is coping with it. Cline spoke about working with Chase Stokes on cultivating the relationship between Sarah and John B.

After finding the treasure of El Dorado — and barely managing to escape with a small chunk of it before the entry gets blown up — the Pogues are back in the OBX. The season kicks off with a flashback to filling in all the gaps of the 18-month time jump, from the Pogues getting the windfall of money they need from the gold to building their own Poguelandia, to subsequently losing all that money and ending up in a bind again. The season is a roller coaster of events that stems from their meeting with Wes Genrette (David Jensen), who asks them to go on yet another treasure hunt.This time, they're going after Blackbeard's treasure. Well... kind of. Wes is looking for a specific amulet that belonged to Blackbeard's wife, hoping to break a superstitious curse that's been on his family, and the Pogues just need the money. But, if there's treasure, there are also people waiting to take it from the Pogues, and Part 1 ends with more than a few shocking twists.We spoke with Chase Stokes, Rudy Pankow, and Drew Starkey about some of the highlights of Part 1 for each of their characters. Stokes talked about John B losing his father in the aftermath of their trip to El Dorado and his reluctance to get back into the treasure hunting game. Starkey also spoke about Rafe coping with the loss of his father (parents in this show have a short expiration date) and how his new relationship with Sofia has changed Rafe for the better. Pankow weighed in on JJ's relationship with Kiara and some of the challenges they might end up facing. He also spoke about his reaction to the plot twist that revealed that Luke (Gary Weeks) isn't JJ's biological father and JJ is instead a Genrette and therefore a Kook.#outerbanks #outerbanksseason4 #chasestokes For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Peter Capaldi & Jessica Raine Loved Playing Begrudging Allies in The Devils Hour Season 2 Collider Interviews 2024-10-12 | Peter Capaldi seems to be everywhere these days. Already nominated for awards for his work with Cush Jumbo in Apple TV+’s Criminal Record (which has been renewed for a second season), he’s also got an album coming out next year, and is generally still incredibly lauded by fans the world over for whatever he does, from Doctor Who to Soft Top Hard Shoulder and back again. Most notably though, he’s back for another round as Gideon, the enigmatic and mysterious killer in The Devil’s Hour, whose second season hits Prime Video on October 18.He co-stars with Jessica Raine, who leads the series as the frazzled Lucy Chambers, a woman who’s discovered that her life and that of her son’s is tied to Gideon’s — as well as the fate of everyone around her — in ways she could never have imagined. The second season takes a turn from eerie mystery to a ticking time bomb of a procedural, as Gideon and Lucy must work together to prevent a devastating crime, all the while coping with memories of…let’s call them other lives.Neither of them are anything like their overwhelmed (and in some cases, deadly) characters in person, though. Both bright and kind, they were keen to answer my questions when I sat down to talk with them at the junket for the second season, where I was buzzing with excitement so badly I could hardly get a sentence out straight. (What can I say? Capaldi’s always been my Doctor.)Coping with playing multiple versions of the same characters in Season 2, we spoke about how they kept each timeline straight, as well as what they do to ground themselves in Lucy and Gideon’s fragile minds, and figuring out their increased relationship in Season 2.

This Netflix feature, written and directed by Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) and starring Laura Dern and Liam Hemsworth, stands out as more than just another love story on streaming.

At the heart of the film lies the undeniable chemistry between its leads, who open up to Collider about their characters’ vulnerabilities and the powerful bond they forged while filming in the remote landscapes of Morocco.As a film about the transformational power of travel and how journeying outside your usual life can make you see yourself in a new light, the film relies heavily on the engaging and convincing dynamic between Dern and Hemsworth. Thankfully, there’s no shortage of that connection. While in conversation with the two for the film, now on Netflix, it’s fun to see the pair’s undeniable chemistry on and off-screen. Their playful banter, as seen with their affectionate names for each other — “Dernsy” and “Hemsy” — highlights their relationship that extends beyond their roles and adds a sincerity that translates seamlessly into their characters’ complex love story. However, outside creating palpable chemistry that will excite audiences, their journeys and vulnerabilities as actors added layers to the film.#lonelyplanet #lauradern #liamhemsworth For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Little Bites Interview: Why Krsy Fox Avoided Her Co-Star in This Spider One-Directed Horror Movie Collider Interviews 2024-10-06 | Hungry for a Halloween treat? Writer-director Spider One is serving up his creature feature Little Bites fresh from its World Premiere at Fantastic Fest. Not only does this movie introduce an original nightmarish monster, but this cast is stacked with some big names in the genre, including A Nightmare on Elm Street's Heather Langenkamp, Bonnie Aarons (The Nun), and Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator). Oh, and Cher and her son Chaz Bono (who plays Paul in the movie) executive produced the film.From Shudder and RLJE Films, Little Bites stars Krsy Fox, who also served as editor and producer on the film, as a widowed mother who will do anything to protect her daughter, Alice (Elizabeth Phoenix Caro).

This dynamic duo discusses addressing taboo issues through horror and genre storytelling, why Fox "intentionally avoided" co-star Jon Sklaroff (Captain America: The Winter Soldier) who played Agyar the monster, twisted comfort movies, and tons more.#vampire #interview #filmmaking For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story: Chloë Sevigny Breaks Down the Taboo Themes Collider Interviews 2024-10-06 | Chloë Sevigny is no stranger to Ryan Murphy’s projects, having starred in multiple seasons of American Horror Story and Feud: Capote vs. The Swans.

Nothing about it is an easy watch, with graphic depictions of violence and horrifying in-depth discussions about child molestation, but Sevigny’s performance is impossible to look away from. She and Bardem bring depth to roles that could easily veer into one-dimensional territory in lesser hands, and the chemistry she developed with onscreen children Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez shines through even in the show’s darkest, most disturbing moments.Collider got the chance to speak with Sevigny about the anxieties she had stepping into the role, getting to explore taboo topics most other shows shy away from, and capturing Kitty being a product of her time.#monsters #menendezbrothers #chloesevignyFor interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Is A Nightmare on Elm Street a Slasher Movie? Robert Englund & Heather Langenkamp on the Debate Collider Interviews 2024-09-30 | It's now been four decades since Freddy Krueger invaded the dreams of his first group of unsuspecting teenagers in writer/director Wes Craven's 1984 horror smash A Nightmare on Elm Street. Led by Robert Englund's sinister Krueger, the film launched a franchise that would eventually include eight films (seven starring Englund), a TV series, and an uncountable number of books, comics, toys, and god only knows what other spin-off material. Actress Heather Langenkamp serves as Krueger's primary nemesis in three of those films. In the original, she's Nancy, a clever teenager who turns the tables on Krueger (and dates a young Johnny Depp). She reprised that role in A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 3: Dream Warriors and then returned again for Wes Craven's New Nightmare, the series' risk-taking seventh installment, a meta twist on the franchise that finds her playing a fictionalized version of herself.Still, it's the original film that's proving to stand the test of time 40 years later, and Warner Bros. is marking the occasion by releasing it in 4K UHD, first digitally on October 1 and then with a fancy physical release on October 15. Englund and Langenkamp reunited this past week to celebrate the occasion, and, in this one-on-one interview with Collider, the pair talk Elm Street's legacy, debate whether A Nightmare on Elm Street should be categorized as a slasher movie, and fondly remember their time with Craven, who would also go on to launch the Scream franchise before he passed away in 2015.#ANightmareonElmStreet #RobertEnglund #HeatherLangenkampFor interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider

Collider Interviews 2024-09-29 | For Max Minghella's sophomore film Shell, actress Kate Hudson is shedding her family-friendly brand for a body horror movie that allows her to flex some disturbing muscles. While celebrating the film's world premiere at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival, Collider's Perri Nemiroff had the opportunity to sit down with Hudson and co-star Kaia Gerber to talk about nailing this tone-specific movie, "pleasure-seeking missiles," and moments that had her and Elisabeth Moss wondering, "What are we doing here?"In Shell, Moss plays actress Samantha Lake, who's confronted with the reality that her appearance may be holding her back in the industry. When Samantha is presented with a solution, she opts to undergo the innovative Shell beauty treatment, and her results attract the attention of the company's glamorous CEO, Zoe Shannon (Hudson). Unfortunately, Shell clients, including A-lister Chloe Benson (Gerber), have started disappearing, and it seems there's something sinister to this miracle treatment.During their interview, Hudson and Gerber tease some of the wild scenes and the bizarre tone Minghella crafted.

They also discuss future projects, like Jonah Hill's Outcome and why working with Keanu Reeves was a dream for Gerber, and Hudson's upcoming series that puts the spotlight on women in sports. #kaiagerber #katehudson #interview #shell #keanureeves For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit collider.comFOLLOW US ON SOCIALtwitter.com/colliderinstagram.com/colliderfacebook.com/collider
