Shudder’s In a Violent Nature was one of my favorite films at Sundance this year, a slow-burn slasher that took place from the perspective of the killer. And while we don’t know anything about it just yet, the movie is indeed getting a sequel.
Mortal Kombat 1 is getting a big story expansion, along with a new batch of characters pulled from film history: Ghostface, T-1000, and Conan the Barbarian.
It’s another delay for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, but at least this one is relatively short: the game is now coming out on November 20th instead of September 5th. The developers says that “these two additional months will give us the chance to fix more ‘unexpected anomalies’ (or simply ‘bugs,’ as you call them).”
Hayao Miyazaki’s opus — which originally hit Japanese theaters last July, and was long expected to be the director’s final film — will stream on Max on September 6th. For more on the movie, be sure to check out our interview with supervising animator Takeshi Honda.
Disney says the movie has now passed $1.462 billion globally, making it the top-grossing animated film ever, passing the likes of Frozen II and the Super Mario Bros. Movie. It also remains the highest-grossing film of 2024 so far.
If Deadpool & Wolverine isn’t enough to satiate your need for one-liners in a blockbuster movie, Borderlands is here for you. The latest trailer is full of even more Guardians of the Galaxy-style humor, much like the game it’s based on, and you can check it out in theaters on August 9th.
