New Epic ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Trailer is here

By AI Creative Media


“It’s time for the Jedi to end,” Luke tells Rey at the end of the epic first trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which premiered at the Star Wars Celebration in Orlando on Friday before it was released online. The trailer was live streamed on the YouTube channel of Star Wars.

The Last Jedi is the follow-up to a small relatively unknown movie “The Force Awakens”, and continues to where Awakens left off. Of course that small movie is currently the highest grossing domestic film of all time.

Here we see Rey (Daisy Ridley) on a remote island where she first met the legendary Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), as well as intergalactic space battles, the Millenium Falcon, glimpses of Finn and Kylo Ren, and what seem like an epic battle between the Resistance and The First Order.

Directed by Rian Johnson (“Looper”), also features Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), Finn (John Boyega) Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill). Later this year, we will find out if “The Last Jedi” lives up to the hype. “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” arrives in theaters on Dec. 15. Watch the trailer below:

There are twenty-five years, Dr. Dre, who aims to bring the 2024 Olympic Games to Los Angeles dropped his first solo song, “Deep Cover”, also known as “187.” The song, which appeared on the soundtrack of Laurence Fishburne and Jeff Goldblum film “Deep Cover”, was the first version by Dre post-N.W.A. and was a perfect fit for the future of the now legendary “Death Row Records”.

“Deep cover” album reached # 166 on the Billboard 200, which is far below the success Dre has achieved with Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren and DJ Yella. However, the record established Dre as a breakout artist and introduced the world to Snoop Doggy Dogg – who last week helped induct 2Pac in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Continue reading

‘Deadpool 2’ Update: Josh Brolin set to play Cable

By AI Creative Media

Josh Brolin has signed on to play the time-traveling mutant Cable, Hollywood Reporter confirmed Wednesday. Yes, many of us know Brolin is also set to supervillain Thanos in “Avengers: Infinity War”, so we might be in for a perplexing situation here.

Indeed, it didn’t take long for many fans to react, including Wade Wilson / Deadpool himself, Ryan Reynolds, who took to twitter to joke about the fresh casting announcement: “The fuck, Fox! You can’t play 2 characters in the same universe!! Josh Brolin was in Sicario and I was in Sabrina The Teenage Witch.

But come on, it’s not like Ryan isn’t guilty of the same for taking multiple Marvel roles. Before Deadpool, he was Hannibal King in “Blade: Trinity”. And of course then there’s a few others such as Michael B. Jordan, who was Human Torch in ‘Fantastic Four’ (2015) and will be the “Black Panther” in 2018, and Chris Evans who played Johnny Storm in the original “Fantastic Four” films before he was Captain America. Of course knowing Reynolds, this is all in jest.

Rumors as to who will play Cable circulated since the character was announced in Deadpool’s post-credit scene; actors including Pierce Brosnan, Nathan Fillion, and Michael Shannon come to mind.

David Leitch is directing Deadpool 2, and is expected to hit theaters in 2018.

EXCLUSIVE: A Man of the World: Interview with Actor Sean Cameron Michael

By Elizabeth Walker

Sean Cameron Michael


Technically, Sean Cameron Michael is a Hollywood newcomer…but only technically. The veteran actor relocated to Los Angeles four or so years ago, after years spent living and working in his native South Africa. I reached him by phone to connect with him about his latest projects, including the independent film Last Broken Darkness and the series Blood Drive.

Q: What attracted you to Last Broken Darkness?

SCM: I had worked with Christopher-Lee dos Santos on a previous project, years ago, a short film, and he had mentioned the idea of this film to me, and said if it ever came to fruition he wanted me to work on it. We ended up shooting it in South Africa in May 2015. It’s a post-apocalyptic story about a father who has lost his wife and kid, and people are surviving underground. Usually in South Africa, movies are either comedies or political in nature, so this was exciting.

Aquaman has another villain: Dolph Lundgren as King Nereus

By AI Creative Media

Production of Aquaman is full speed ahead and raising the bar on villainous lineup. Right now, that list already includes Black Manta and Orn. And they will now be joined by Nereus, as Hollywood Reporter announced will be played by veteran Swedish action icon Dolph Lundgren. For some reason, this tells me that Lundgren’s recent appearance on Arrow was just a warm-up.

The Hollywood Reporter reported that “Lundgren will play King Nereus of the aquatic kingdom of Xebel, who claims Mera as his own and wants to kill Aquaman.” On Facebook, director James Wan was quick to point out that, “it’s different in my film. But nonetheless, he’ll be an awesome King Nereus, ruler of Xebel.” Whatever the, this raises the stakes yet again for Wan’s already mega-ambitious project.

Lundgren isn’t new to comic book adaptations and superhero films. In 1989, he played the anti-hero Frank Castle in ‘The Punisher’, while before that he portrayed He-Man in the 1987 sci-fi film Masters of the Universe. His role as Ivan Drago in Rocky IV however, remains one of his most iconic roles.

Momoa is playing the title character, while James Wan is sitting in the director’s chair. Willem Dafoe plays Aquaman’s adviser, scientist Dr. Vulko, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta; and Temuera Morrison as Aquaman’s father.

Production is supposed to start on May in Australia and is set to be released in December of 2018.

An Album Review: Pure Comedy by Father John Misty

By Sukhbir Dhillon

Father John Misty’s, also known as John Tillman album released on April 7, 2017, making it his third album in the past five years, yet this album, thematically, takes on on a whole new world of it’s own. Pure Comedy is reflection of Tillman’s perspective on the current state of the world, and by that extension, the album take on darker tones and almost creates a sense of hopelessness in the listener, surely Tillman intended for this.

From the first track-list, also titled Pure Comedy, to the last track, “In Twenty Years or So”, Tillman presents himself as a modern prophet by taking his earlier ideas from songs, like “Bored In The USA”, and building on the concepts of the sedation of the American people by means of media.

Yet even with the ideological difference Pure Comedy takes on, the music that his fans are familiar with is still there, but what truly makes Pure Comedy special is what it achieves beyond the notes. This album is a prophecy from a man who has had enough and it will be interesting to see if his predictions prove to be correct.

Overall, old fans and new fans will be able to enjoy Pure Comedy as much as they allow themselves to.
