Sometimes, when actors find themselves the focus of a particularly passionate fandom, they reject it. Look at Harrison Ford constantly playing down the importance of "Star Wars" or Robert Pattinson and his open disdain for the "Twilight" series. Which is why it's nice when an actor shares in fans' joy for a particularly beloved performance. Case in point: Danny DeVito and his role as Penguin in "Batman Returns."
Tim Burton's 1992 expressionist masterpiece remains the best Batman movie ever made, and DeVito is a big part of that legacy. The "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" star delivered a stunningly committed performance as Oswald Cobblepot aka the Penguin, managing to make the deformed "penguin man of the sewers" so wretchedly evil and yet, at times, sympathetic. The abandoned son of a well-to-do couple commits some truly heinous acts throughout "Returns" and yet you still feel a pang of sadness for the old boy.

Setting the tone with a slower, orchestral rendition of Nirvana’s Something in the Way, the first trailer for The Batman gave fans a preview of what to expect: a much darker, if not brutal, portrayal of the beloved DC character. With a teaser leading up to the thrilling moment when the music stops, Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight was supposed to be a Batman unlike any other. And it only got better from there.
While a lot of trailers continue the stale practice of turning a popular song into a dark cover, Kurt Cobain’s original song was fully embraced in The Batman trailer.

St. Patrick’s Day is a time to celebrate Irish culture, history, and of course, to have a bit of fun! To those unfamiliar, March 17th marks the traditional death date of St. Patrick (Ireland’s patron saint). It used to be a religious day to remember him and how Christianity spread in Ireland.

The day is celebrated beyond Ireland as a way to embrace Irish culture. This day offers people a chance to enjoy traditional music, dancing, food, and drinks. Also, wearing green is a big part of it since it’s linked with Ireland.

Since Cillian Murphy just became the first Irish-born actor to win the Best Actor Oscar, I thought it would be appropriate to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a list of the most notable Irish actors who have been honored by the Academy with either Oscar gold or a nomination.
1. Cillian Murphy
Murphy has played non-Irish roles so often and so well that some people may not realize or remember that he is Irish. His best Irish films include Breakfast on Pluto and The Wind that Shakes the Barley. And as noted above, he is the first Irish-born actor to take home an Academy Award in the Best Actor category.

Theo James leads Netflix's The Gentlemen series with a new twist on Guy Ritchie's crime world. Despite the shared title and universe, the TV series stands as its own unique narrative adventure. Ritchie's signature style shines through in the hit series, taking viewers on a wild ride.
Netflix's The Gentlemen is ready to introduce Guy Ritchie's signature blend of Cockney crime drama to a new generation. Following the success of the 2019 film, also titled The Gentlemen, this new series has recently arrived on television screens worldwide.

Now that a television series by the same name has appeared on Netflix, viewers are no doubt wondering whether there is a direct connection between the two. At first glance, the answer seems to be no. After all,...

Keaton and Pattinson faced backlash as Batman, but won fans over with their performances, proving initial judgments can be wrong. Ledger and Affleck also faced criticism but ended up beloved as Batman, showing the importance of waiting to see the actor in action. Fans need to keep an open mind about castings, as actors have the ability to surprise and excel in roles beyond initial perceptions.
When Robert Pattinson was first cast as Batman in 2019 for Matt Reeves's The Batman, certain fans weren't happy. While the casting of a fan-favorite role tends to generate some sort of backlash since it is impossible to please everyone, Batman is a different story. Due to his popularity in the iconic Twilight franchise, many people made jokes about Robert Pattinson being cast as Batman. He was mocked, with the common opinion being that people could not see him as Batman.

DC Studios has delayed the release of The Batman - Part II, with the project now set to premiere on October 2, 2026. The Batman - Part II's delay means only one DC Studios feature film will be releasing each in 2024 and 2025, Joker: Folie à Deux and Superman, respectively. While this could be a disappointment, The Batman - Part II's delay may actually be the best choice for DC Studios and the rebooted Dcu.
DC Studios has delayed the release of The Batman - Part II, and this change means that the DC Universe will be following the same release pattern for two years in a row.

Irish actors had never won an Oscar for leading roles despite Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal, and Colin Farrell receiving nominations. Notable Irish actors like Liam Neeson, Michael Fassbender, and Ruth Negga have earned Oscar nominations but never won. Irish actors like Kenneth Branagh and Barry Fitzgerald have won Oscars at the Academy Awards but never in a leading role.
The Oscars are the most sought-after prize for anyone working in films, but until Cillian Murphy's Oscar win, no Irish actor or actress had won the Oscar for a leading role. The Academy Awards are incredibly prestigious, with only a handful of categories awarding an Oscar each year, and several nominees fighting to win the coveted prize. However, despite incredible talent and many years of hard work, many people involved in cinema will never win an Oscar themselves.

Touring the riot scene, gravely assessing the devastation, patiently awaiting to play Oswald Cobblepot again. That’s the word from Danny DeVito, who says that if he can get Tim Burton on board, he would absolutely play The Penguin once more.
Speaking with Screen Rant, Danny DeVito expressed interest in returning as The Penguin, saying, “If Tim Burton was directing it, I’d be there in a second. Oswald Cobblepot is my favorite. I had a good time. It’s operatic. I like every once in a while going big, and so I’d do that in a second. We had a ball doing that.” And we’d have a ball watching it, as DeVito chews up every scene he’s in – and nose stuck in his business.

Take down the Bat-signal for now, Bat-fans. Because Matt Reeves’ follow-up to The Batman has been, erm… Bat-delayed? For a while now, the sequel has been expected to hit our screens in late 2025 – bringing Robert Pattinson back in the cowl as Bruce Wayne, continuing his more detective-focused take on the Dark Knight. But thanks to a reshuffle at Warner Bros, The Batman Part II officially has a new date – and it’s moved back by a whole year.
Per the new schedule, The Batman Part II is now expected to hit cinemas on 2 October 2026 – meaning the sequel will finally arrive four-and-a-half years after the first film. In the meantime, fans can content themselves with the arrival of tie-in Max series The Penguin, bringing the return of Colin Farrell’s gangster as he attempts to consolidate power in Gotham.

Batman is one of the most iconic comic book characters of all time. The character has been immortalized, and various actors over the years, including Robert Pattinson, have breathed life into Bruce Wayne on the big screen. Pattinson’s iteration of Wayne was memorable, and his collaboration with Matt Reeves paid dividends, as The Batman was a massive success.
Naturally, Warner Brothers greenlit its sequel, and Pattinson is set to don the cape once more in The Batman 2. However, DC fans will have to wait a bit longer since the release of the film has been pushed back to 2026

Robert Pattinson is all set to reprise his role as the Caped Crusader in Matt Reeves’ upcoming The Batman Part II, slated to hit theaters in 2025. Pattinson debuted as the titular character in The Batman (2022), giving the character a new perspective.
Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne wasn’t the usual rich playboy. The 37-year-old actor brought depth by portraying him as more of a recluse.

In the 2022 film, the British star faced off against Carmine Falcone—a cunning crime boss who runs his operations with an iron fist in Gotham City.
Falcone doesn’t have flashy costumes like other Batman villains, but he’s still a big part of Bruce Wayne’s story. Some also say that the villain might have always known that Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne is secretly The Batman.

Amid a couple of big date announcements, Warner Bros has delayed Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part II into 2026 following challenges bought on by last year’s strikes.
We’re almost a year on from the beginning of the writers’ strike, the labour shutdown that pre-empted US actors also withdrawing their talents in one of the most contentious labour disputes ever to hit Hollywood. The writers would strike until September of last year, but in those five months of downed pens, quills and laptops, plenty of projects were significantly derailed.
One of those projects is Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part II. Originally slated to release next summer, Warner Bros has announced that the film has now been pushed back a full year from October 2025 to October 2026.
As of a couple of months ago, James Gunn, the head honcho in the Dcu, was still waiting for Reeves (and co-writer Mattson Tomlin) to...

The highly-anticipated sequel to Matt Reeves’ The Batman has been pushed back from its original Oct. 3, 2025 release date on the Warner Bros. slate. The movie will now release Oct. 2, 2026. That means there will now be an over four-year gap between the first film, which saw Robert Pattinson don the cape and cowl, and Part II.
This will of course come as disappointing news for DC fans who have been awaiting the second installment in what’s meant to be a whole trilogy of Batman movies from Reeves and Pattinson. But it isn’t all bad news for Batfans, especially if (weirdly) you also happen to be a fan of The Dark Knight. Taking over the Oct. 3, 2025 spot on the slate is another WB production, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride!, which is a reimagining of the Bride of Frankenstein, starring Bale, Jessie Buckley, Peter Sarsgaard, Annette Bening, and Penelope Cruz.

While this news is disappointing, the shift gives James Gunn’s Superman film room to leap over the box office in a single bound when it flies into theaters on July 11, 2025. Double-dipping on two of DC’s Trinity heroes would have been nice, but spacing them out is likely better in the long run. Matt Reeves’ The Batman is not a part of Gunn and Safran’s “Gods and Monsters” initiative, but it’s all the same for plenty of audience members. Not everyone keeps their finger on the pulse of how the Dcu is structured.

“The Batman 2,” the sequel to Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” starring Robert Pattinson, has been delayed by a full year to 2026.
Warner Bros. Pictures announced “The Batman 2” will now open in theaters and IMAX on October 2, 2026, delayed from October 3, 2025. The new Batman movie now opens a week ahead of a planned sequel to the animated “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.”
Taking the place of “The Batman” on the release calendar is “The Bride!,” the new film from director Maggie Gyllenhaal that stars Christian Bale, Jessie Buckley, Peter Sarsgaard, with Annette Bening, and Penelope Cruz, and is meant to be a riff on Frankenstein. That film was announced to open Oct. 3, 2025, and it will also debut in IMAX.
“The Batman” opened in 2022 and was a box office hit for WB, grossing $772 million worldwide. A sequel was announced back in 2022.

“You can literally film anything in Ireland that you want to — obviously desert scenes are a bit complicated, but we’ll have a go.” In this quick quip, veteran Irish producer Tristan Orpen Lynch sums up so much about his home country’s movie business right now. A fresh swell of opportunity and confidence may be swirling through it, thanks to the government’s decision to allow producers to claim back 32 percent of any spend on film, TV and animation to $134 million, up from $75 million. However, insiders say it’s actually in the midst of a deeper sea change built upon decades of investment, support and training — always combined with the nation’s innate charm and visually striking locales.
In 2021, the Irish screen industry rapidly bounced back after Covid to generate €500 million ($547m) local spend, its highest ever and 40 percent more than the last record set in 2019. Roll on 2023, and...

Bye, Barbie.
Warner Bros. released Greta Gerwig’s Barbie last summer, on July 21, 2023, and it became an instant pop culture phenomenon before going on to end the year as the No. 1 movie of the year thanks to a $1.445 billion dollar finish.

Sugar is bringing back the private investigator action subgenre with a modern twist by using technology and modern storytelling techniques. Colin Farrell's star power and Apple TV+'s high-quality track record are expected to make Sugar a huge success in reviving the genre. While detective stories declined due to technological advancements, Sugar aims to reinvent the classic Pi story in a contemporary setting.
Colin Farrell's upcoming Apple TV+ show Sugar could revitalize one of the oldest trends in the history of film that's all but been forgotten. The first images of Sugar showed that Farrell will star as the titular character, John Sugar. He'll be tasked with finding the missing granddaughter of a famous Hollywood producer, but the mystery promises to be much deeper and more intricate than it seems. Since Sugar falls into both the mystery and thriller genres, there will be no shortage of excitement through its debut season.

The 2024 Oscar nominees for Best Actor are Bradley Cooper (“Maestro”), Colman Domingo (“Rustin”), Paul Giamatti (“The Holdovers”), Cillian Murphy (“Oppenheimer”), and Jeffrey Wright (“American Fiction”). Murphy (16/5) is favored to win by our odds, followed in order by Giamatti (18/5), Cooper (9/2), Wright (9/2), and Domingo (9/2).
Whereas last year’s lead male lineup was the first in almost nine decades to consist entirely of Oscars newcomers, this one includes three rookies and two general veterans. Standing alone in having already competed for this specific award is Cooper, who was previously recognized for “Silver Linings Playbook” (2013), “American Sniper” (2015), and “A Star Is Born” (2019). Since he personally helmed both “A Star Is Born” and “Maestro,” he is now the fourth person to direct himself to multiple acting nominations, following Laurence Olivier, Warren Beatty, and Clint Eastwood.
Cooper is concurrently nominated for co-writing the original screenplay for “Maestro” with past winner Josh Singer and is directly involved...

Remember Guy Ritchie's "The Gentlemen"? They're back — in Netflix form. Ritchie has taken his 2019 crime comedy and turned it into a Netflix series, which is now streaming. But just how connected is the show to the movie? Is it the same story now turned into a TV show? Are the same characters back, played by new actors? Just what the heck is the deal here? Don't worry, it's not that complicated.
In Ritchie's "The Gentlemen" movie, which we called "stylish but empty" in our review, Matthew McConaughey plays Mickey Pearson, a wealthy American crook with a cannabis empire in the UK. Here's the official synopsis:
Mickey Pearson is an American expatriate who became rich by building a highly profitable marijuana empire in London. When word gets out that he's looking to cash out of the business, it soon triggers an array of plots and schemes -- including bribery and...

True Detective Season 1 was a landmark moment for Matthew McConaughey. It completed a comeback that started with Jeff Nichols’ Mud back in 2012. The actor continued his resurgence by stripping for Steven Soderbergh in Magic Mike, and losing weight for an Oscar in Dallas Buyers Club. He went on to beat his chest and drink martinis in The Wolf of Wall Street before hitting a career high by starring as Rust Cohle in True Detective. But after ten years and three sequels, fans still keep coming back to the series' debut season. Season 1's rewatch value is something that the detective anthology's later and critically-acclaimed successors don't enjoy as much.
Beyond the obvious McConnaissance, a term coined by the actor himself, True Detective Season 1 captured the ice-cold chemistry between its leading men Woody Harrelson (Marty Hart) and Matthew McConaughey.

While forgettable to anyone not tasked with remembering it, Guy Ritchie’s 2019 feature film “The Gentlemen” does embody the two distinct halves shaping the writer-director’s career to date. At the height of its binary world are the aristocrats: affluent Englishmen whose titles and estates grant them access to a refined class of lords and ladies. On the other end are the criminals: conniving Brits who do the dirty work necessary just to get by. What brings them together is Mickey Pearson (Matthew McConaughey), an American living in London who builds a massive marijuana business by hiding his farms under the sweeping landscapes of the rich and fortified. The aristocrats get a hefty kickback to support their lavish lifestyle, and the criminals get the relative safety only wealth can offer. Two classes colliding — which happens once someone inevitably screws up — is what gives “The Gentlemen” its juice. Or it’s supposed to,...

Netflix‘s new Guy Ritchie series The Gentlemen may sound like a remake, but it’s set in the same universe as the director’s 2019 film of the same name. Despite not featuring the original cast members — Matthew McConaughey, Colin Farrell, Jeremy Strong, Hugh Grant, Henry Golding, and Charlie Hunnam — the show incorporates many of the same elements of the original, namely the marijuana empire first introduced by McConaughey’s character Michael Pearson in the film. As the American expat attempts to sell off his business, a series of plots, schemes, bribery, blackmail, and more ensue, as gangsters and the like attempt to steal the organization out from under him.
