The first trailer for Warner Bros. Pictures Animation’s upcoming animated adaptation of The Cat in the Hat has just been released, showcasing voice performances from some of the funniest actors working today, particularly Bill Hader as the titular lead.

The Toronto International Film Festival - long considered to be Canada’s premiere festival, enters its 50th year, which is shaping up to be their biggest yet.

After years of anticipation, Marvel Studios’ ‘Ironheart’ is signaling its release being around the corner, thanks to another new trailer.

After much anticipation, Pixar’s ‘Elio’ is right around the corner, having now debuted its final trailer.

‘Ironheart’, a long awaited and often rumored Disney + original series, has finally been slated for release with a new trailer following the character’s appearance in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

While it’d be nearly impossible to cover every single thing set to be shown, we can at least cover the “heavy hitters” of SXSW 2025. So here are the big debuts that have the most folks buzzing for their festival premiere.

As we near the end of 2024 and Disney prepares for what the company has to offer in 2025. If you thought this year was wild, feast your eyes on this up-to-date full slate for Disney and Disney-adjacent releases next year.

FilmSpeak’s social media coordinator, Ryan Daly is funding his next project, and the production has an amazing cast and crew, including a big name Youtuber.

Steve Buscemi, Isabella Rossellini, Abigail Breslin, and Jon Jacobs win top acting honors as Bella Thorne, ‘The Stranger’s Case’, ‘Go for Grandma’, and ‘Shape of Red’ earn Grand Jury prizes at this year’s Seattle Film Festival.

This past week, at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, Netflix unveiled their upcoming slate of animated projects. The newly announced projects seem to be in-line with Netflix’s previous animated catalogue, promoting new stories and revitalizing existing franchises for all ages and demographics. Let’s break down some of the key announcements and reveals.

Fans of murder mystery films can rejoice, because they have a new bone to gnaw on thanks to recent news. Film auteur Rian Johnson announced on social media that his next film would be titled ‘Wake Up Dead Man’, the third film in his whodunnit series.

Marvel Studios hasn’t had much success at all on the small screen, sending out new series after new series that always seem, regardless of context, to fail in both their artistic integrity and connection to the cinematic universe. ‘Ironheart’ suffers the same ultimate fate.

One might have hoped that this season of ‘House of the Dragon’, despite any flagging or extra filler, might be amounting to something spectacular for its finale. Unfortunately, despite a few moments of payoff, this season’s final episode is an altogether anticlimactic fumble.

If anyone was doubting the slow burn approach which this second season was taking, let The Red Sowing stand as proof that the people behind ‘House of the Dragon’, despite any flaws, know exactly what they’re doing.

As controversial as ever, ‘The Boys’ only seems blunt because we are seemingly entering a post-satire world. It is increasingly difficult to invent a dystopia which is less ridiculous than reality. Moreover, the show was always a scathing criticism of the society in which it was produced; its quality has not diminished as some people are wont to claim.

Many will see this as another filler-heavy episode, albeit with a welcome return of Laenor Velaryon’s dragon Seasmoke. Book fans, however, will be able to anticipate future events which have been gleefully set in motion during this new episode.

Perhaps the only thing that those who’ve been tuning into ‘The Acolyte’ for the last two months can agree upon is… that it’s officially over. Yes, this week’s finale in the eighth episode of this debut and controversial season.

Now that we’re past the halfway point of this season of ‘House of the Dragon’, its slow pace is beginning to show signs of dragging. That said, it’s understandable that the show would take a breather after its first major character death of the season.

Next week will have the final say as the finale of ‘The Acolyte’ looms. Until then, we’ll be counting our blessings in the form of fun fight sequences and neat planet names that pop up in the bottom left corner of the screen. One. More. Week.

All in all, The Red Dragon and the Gold is an episode for ‘House of the Dragon’. For those who are in the know, the action is unfolding like a tragedy, slowly and deliberately. For those who have no idea what to expect from this series, this episode will be an emotional gut-punch, the first of many more to come before this tale is over.
