Starring Mackie and Harrison Ford, “Captain America: Brave New World” hit theaters on Feb. 14.

Okay, so the broomsticks, margarita glasses, and sisterly screaming from Practical Magic are happening again. Yep, Practical Magic 2 is officially on its way, and we’re all set to rewind the golden age of VHS. Seriously, it’s been over 25 years since Sally and Gillian Owens first cast their chaotic charm on us. Now they’re back, still witchy, fabulous, and hopefully still making midnight drinks while breaking generational curses.

With Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman returning, we’re about to dive into the magic mix of potions, drama, and probably dancing in the moonlight. But while we wait for this magic to happen on September 18, 2026, let’s rewind the ‘90s mood of cult classics. Yep, we’re talking about those slightly weird, wildly lovable movies that stuck us like glitter on a velvet dress.

So, before the iconic Owen sisters return, let’s revisit the vibes that actually...

Ben Affleck might be an Oscar-winning actor, director, and screenwriter—but according to him, his harshest critic lives right under his own roof. Recently, in an amusingly candid moment shared with Jimmy Kimmel, Affleck revealed the brutal roasting he was given by his own children while they watched his 1998 disaster blockbuster, Armageddon. Some would say it is a brave person who endures a screening of their work with their kids, others would say it is foolish.

Michael Bay’s Armageddon is a movie that has divided opinion and been debated since its release almost 30 years ago. Starring Affleck alongside Bruce Willis, Liv Tyler, and a large ensemble cast, the film was the highest-grossing movie of the year in 1998, but it didn’t exactly become the darling of reviewers thanks to its usual Bay mix of over-the-top plotline, outlandish-action sequences, and a somewhat convoluted ending. In short, its story about a...

Actor Charley Scalies, known in part for his roles in the HBO TV shows The Wire and The Sopranos, has passed away.

Per The Hollywood Reporter, Scalies died on Thursday morning in a nursing facility in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. His passing was confirmed by his daughter, Anne Marie Scalies, with his death attributed Alzheimer's disease. He was 84 years old.

A character actor, Scalies was perhaps best known for his role in the second season of The Wire on HBO in 2003. Appearing in all 12 of the season's episodes, Scalies played Horseface, a prisoner and former Ibs Local 1514 longshoreman from the Port of Baltimore. The actor has spoken in the past about how special the role of Horseface had been for him.

“As with all the other characters I’ve been blessed to portray, Horseface lives inside of me,” said Scalies in a 2019 interview. “I invite him out to play as needed.”

In a separate 2015 interview,...

Jack Nicholson is a legend, no doubt about it. The man could mumble a half-sentence and somehow sound like the smartest guy in the room. But even geniuses have their off days, and when it comes to The Lord of the Rings, I seriously can’t get behind his opinion, which (to me) feels like one of those takes that aged worse than Gollum’s skincare routine.

In a world where Frodo, Gandalf, and the entire Middle-earth saga are basically sacred, Jack’s old-school take just sounds painfully out of touch now. I get it, not everyone has to love hobbits and epic quests. But come on, this is Lord of the Rings we’re talking about.

In the many millennia since, literature became an avid means of escaping human toil, there have been many stories written and retold. And in the modern age, one can argue that none quite captures the imagination so wholly as J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. In the early 2000s, director Peter Jackson adapted Tolkien's tale of the Third Age of Middle-earth, with The Fellowship of the Ring, and the subsequent two films, earning Jackson's trilogy a spot in cinematic folklore. However, that journey is not ended, as May 2024 brought with it the revelation that a new wave of movies from Middle-earth would be descending upon us soon, and Liv Tyler would very much like to be a part of it.

Tolkien's stories offered us a vast array of brilliant Elven characters to adore, and in Jackson's trilogy, Tyler's Arwen stood out. The daughter of Elrond (Hugo Weaving) and Celebrían,...

So, check out the 7 best films that are coming to Prime Video in May 2025 with a 90% or higher Rotten Tomatoes score.

All Quiet on the Western Front is a pre-Code anti-war film directed by Lewis Milestone. Based on the 1929 novel of the same name by German author Erich Maria Remarque, the 1930 film follows a naive soldier who enlists to fight in World War I and soon comes face-to-face with the horror of war,...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe officially kicked off in 2008 with Iron Man, and is still going strong nearly two decades later with its 36th feature film, Thunderbolts, opening in U.S. theaters on May 2. But for every Oscar-winning juggernaut like Black Panther or beloved action-comedy like Guardians of the Galaxy, there are MCU films that even the truest of fans wish never happened. We've consulted the cumulative IMDb scores and have come up with the definitive ranking of all Marvel Cinematic Universe movies to date.

Produced by Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige, the MCU is a shared universe of American superhero films based on countless editions of Marvel Comics. It's easily the highest-grossing movie franchise in history, topping $31.5 billion globally, with Avengers: Endgame being the biggest earner at $2.8 billion worldwide.

Thunderbolts, directed by Jake Schreier (Beef) and starring Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, will be added to the list...

The Og "Lord of the Rings" crew has been in the news cycle a lot lately. With Warner Bros. planning new live-action J.R.R. Tolkien film adaptations, everyone is wondering who could show up again after a 20-year hiatus from Middle-earth acting.

You can count Liv Tyler among those ready to jump right back into the action. Tyler is, of course, famous for playing the Elven queen Arwen in Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" film trilogy. While the character has a minor role in Tolkien's source material, Arwen is busy in the movies. She fills in for the Elf-lord Glorfindel by saving Frodo (Elijah Woods) from the Black Riders and encourages Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) to fulfill his destiny and confront Sauron. She was even filmed in various fight sequences, including the Battle of Helm's Deep (although that was later cut during post-production).

Now, Tyler has gone on record saying...

Is the commentary track a lost art? For those who get their movies at home via streaming services, it certainly is. Unfortunately, the major services don't offer any sort of bonus features, while VOD purchases only come with a small selection of content. For those of us who still worship at the altar of physical media, the academic commentary track is alive and well, with every release containing at least one track examining a film. However, both groups have to endure the loss of what used to be a Hollywood staple: the cast commentary track for a recent film. While these continue to crop up on occasion, they've become exceedingly rare, which is bizarre for anyone who was around for the heyday of DVD. Heck, commentaries used to be such a prerequisite that in 2008's "Tropic Thunder," Robert Downey Jr.'s Kirk Lazarus (playing Lincoln Osiris) made a quip about...

The thrilling and successful Hb series The Last of Us has returned for season 2. Audiences have been captivated by the live-action adaptation of the video game of the same name, preparing themselves for what promises to be another violent, heartbreaking, and addictive season.

For those who can't get enough of Joel and Ellie or are simply too excited to wait for a new episode to drop each week, we've made a list of TV shows to help pass the time. These shows are similar to The Last of Us in a multitude of ways, from the story to the characters to the overall setting.

What makes fear seep into the very marrow of our bones? Few films manage to penetrate this question, but when they do, they become unforgettable. In 2008, The Strangers answered the call with eerie simplicity, capturing an atmosphere of dread that’s as inescapable as it is haunting. It cemented itself as a modern horror classic, forcing us to confront a truth so unnerving it feels invasive: we are never truly safe. Fast forward fifteen years to The Strangers: Chapter 1—a reimagining that aims to expand and evolve the story for today’s audience. But does it achieve the same level of terror? Or does it sacrifice what made its predecessor so menacingly effective? While Chapter 1 brings fresh ideas, it’s the raw, almost primal simplicity of The Strangers (2008) that continues to strike the deepest nerve. In today’s episode of Horror Revisited, we’re not here to discuss one...

Avengers: Doomsday promises significant developments in the long-running Multiverse Saga as Captain America is expected to lead the revamped titular supergroup. However, his latest production tease offers an ominous hint at what could happen in the highly-anticipated superhero sequel.

In his Instagram stories (via ComicBookMovie.com), Mackie shared an image of himself on a plane with the caption, "And so it begins," hinting at him beginning shooting for Doomsday, which is in production in the U.K. However, Mackie notably used a blood filter in his photo, possibly suggesting a bloody fight is coming for Sam Wilson and co. against Robert Downey Jr's new big bad, Victor von Doom/Doctor Doom.

Doomsday and its sequel, Secret Wars, are being shot concurrently in the U.K., with Infinity War and Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo at the helm. Mackie recently teased that Doomsday would take on a similar tone to Infinity War,...

Despite its mixed reception and less-than-stellar box office performance, Captain America: Brave New World is a solid first solo outing as the Sentinel of Liberty for Anthony Mackie, among many critics and fans. One industry name who credits Mackie's work on the Marvel Cinematic Universe sequel is his Captain America predecessor, Chris Evans.

Speaking with E! News, Mackie revealed what Evans said about Brave New World and his performance in the superhero blockbuster. Though they haven't talked much due to their busy schedules, Mackie said he received a short but sweet text from Evans praising him and the film. "I haven't talked to him, I just got a text from him saying 'good job' and he loved the movie," Mackie said. "I haven't talked to him because we both been running around. He's in the middle of Europe somewhere working."

Mackie's Sam Wilson accepted the Captain America mantle from Evans'...

What did Steve Rogers actor Chris Evans think of Captain America: Brave New World? Sam Wilson actor Anthony Mackie has recently shared the details while out promoting his new animated pic, Sneaks.

Said Mackie, "I haven't talked to him, I just go a text saying, 'Good job,' and that he loved the movie. I haven't talked to him because we've both been running around. He's in the middle of Europe somewhere, working."

Was Mackie slyly alluding to Evans appearing in the next Avengers film, which is currently filming in London? If Steve Rogers does appear in the film, what do you think he'll say about Sam's performance as his handpicked successor?

And speaking of Avengers: Doomsday, Mackie recently took to social media to share with MCU fans that he was currently flying out to the set to begin filming.

Captain America: Brave New World sees legendary actor Giancarlo Esposito tap into his dark side as he portrays the villainous Seth Voelker/Sidewinder in his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut. Though excited to play the superhero blockbuster's big bad, he admits it was a "fierce role" for him, given the physicality involved.

In a Brave New World featurette (via ComicBookMovie), Esposito detailed his experience portraying Sidewinder and how he prepared for his role as the Serpent Society's gun-toting leader. "This role, for me, is a fierce role," he said. "This is a role where I'm not just silent, saying a couple of words, scaring you with my eyes. This guy is backing it up with his physicality."

Esposito stated he needed to "get in that kinda physical place where your body speaks louder than your words," going to Atlanta to do arms training and other work for four days to get...

Captain America: Brave New World arrives at a time in MCU where the Og Avengers are dearly missed, “a bit of a low point,” to quote Deadpool. But that’s no measure to Sam Wilson aka new Cap’s (Anthony Mackie) leading abilities after all he’s been there right from the start. The character will return in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday, and he’ll be “running the show.”

After Sam Wilson got the shield handed over by Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) in Avengers: Endgame, it took him some time to completely take over the mantle as we saw in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He came in his full Captain America avatar in the latest entry Brave New World. Writer of the feature Rob Edwards recently speculated where Sam Wilson’s story will take him next. "He's Captain America now, so arguably, he's running the show. I think that's the next step,...

Captain America: Brave New World North America Box Office: 9th Weekend Update(Photo Credit – Instagram)

Captain America: Brave New World is waiting for the final milestone at the box office in North America. The MCU feature once again failed to achieve its goal this weekend and has also lost many theatres in North America. The film was the highest-grossing film of this year, but it also lost that title to A Minecraft Movie this weekend. Keep scrolling for the deets.

The film is going to land the Marvel Studios in loss with its collection as it had the price tag of $180 million. Captain America 4, however, helped the franchise cross the global milestone of $2.5 billion. Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson has a bigger part to play, and this MCU flick established his place as Captain America. The movie also introduced the new falcon, and it is portrayed by Danny Ramirez,...

Captain America: Brave New World brings Sam Wilson’s story to the forefront of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with Anthony Mackie officially stepping into the role of the new Captain America. Directed by Julius Onah (The Cloverfield Paradox), the film was released in theaters on February 14, 2025, and is now heading to digital platforms. Here’s everything you need to know about the Captain America: Brave New World plot, where to stream it online, and why it’s worth your time.

What is ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ About?

In Captain America: Brave New World, Sam Wilson finds himself caught in an international crisis following a meeting with the newly elected U.S. President, Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross (played by Harrison Ford). As tensions rise, Sam must uncover the source of a global conspiracy before the mastermind behind it throws the world into chaos.

Did Tom Hanks reject Charlize Theron? (Photo Credit – Wikipedia/Instagram)

The movie was That Thing You Do!, a musical dramedy about a one-hit-wonder band in the 1960s. Theron wanted the lead. Hanks passed. His reason? “You’re too much of a supernova to play Faye.”

That wasn’t just a creative choice, it was instinct. Tom Hanks saw the firepower in Theron long before the Academy did. She auditioned for Faye, the soft-spoken, supportive girlfriend of the band’s frontman. Hanks liked her, but he saw something else. Something bigger.

“Charlize read on the very first day that I read actors,” Hanks told The Ringer. “She said, ‘Listen, I know I can play Tina, but I want to play Faye.’ I said, ‘I get that,’ but what I was thinking in my head was, ‘You’re too much of a supernova to play Faye.’ Casting her was such a coup.

The next Lord of the Ringsfilm, The Hunt for Gollum, is set for release in 2027, and fans are rightfully curious about whether any of their favorite characters will return for the film.

Several of the cast members from Peter Jackson’s original Lord of the Rings trilogy took part in a panel at AwesomeCon in Washington, D.C., hosted by ScreenRant’s Joe Deckelmeiser, including Liv Tyler and Orlando Bloom, who played Arwen and Legolas, respectively, in the films.

Liv Tyler: “It Was Such a Gift”

Tyler revealed the answer to the question if she would return to the franchise after appearing in all three of the original trilogy movies as Arwen.“I’d just do anything. I write to Fran (Walsh) and Philippa (Boyens),” Tyler said of the pair who were writers on The Lord of the Rings films. “I’m like, ‘Hey, is there any chance we’re going to need Arwen back?...

Captain America: Brave New World puts Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson in the forefront for the first time as the Sentinel of Liberty as he takes on the latest twists in the long-running Multiverse Saga. With the film setting up Wilson to be the new leader of the Avengers, the Captain America sequel's co-screenwriter feels that he's "running the show" as he prepares for the events of Avengers: Doomsday.

Speaking with ComicBookMovie.com, Brave New World scribe Rob Edwards addressed Wilson's future as Captain America following his first big-screen outing as the titular supersoldier. The Captain America follow-up teased its eponymous hero as the leader of the rebuilt Avengers, who haven't been seen together since Endgame, with Wilson rallying the troops following the death of Tony Stark/Iron Man and others. Edwards believes Wilson has shown he's ready to take on such a big mantle.

More than 20 years have passed since we last saw the Fellowship of the Ring and Frodo make their epic journey to destroy the One Ring in Middle-earth. However, it appears that the original cast of The Lord of the Rings franchise is ready to go back to Middle-earth. At least, Arwen, Samwise, Legolas and Gimli could be the ones returning in the future, as their performers didn't say no when approached with the idea of reprising their roles in a future movie of Peter Jackson's epic fantasy universe.

Original cast members Liv Tyler, Sean Astin, Orlando Bloom and John Rhys-Davies appeared at an AwesomeCon panel to talk about their legacy in the original Lord of the Rings trilogy. Hosted by Screen Rant, the panel included asking them whether they could return for another movie in the franchise. The Hunt for Gollum is reportedly in development, and it could be...

After earning $199 million at the domestic box office and $213 million internationally for a global total of $412 million, Captain America: Brave New World is flying onto digital platforms in just a few days. Disney has announced that the film will premiere on VOD on April 15, and to celebrate its digital arrival, Collider is thrilled to partner with Disney and Marvel to share a new behind-the-scenes sneak peek of the film. The new clip shows leading star Anthony Mackie and costume designer Allison Freer talk about what goes into bringing Mackie’s new supersuit to life on the big screen. Mackie’s first suit is the same one featured at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier before it evolves into more of a navy flight suit.

A new gag reel from behind the scenes of the latest MCU sequel, Captain America: Brave New World, shows what happens when Harrison Ford gets angry...and it’s hilarious. The Star Wars actor joined the world of Marvel this year, taking over the role of Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross following the passing of William Hurt. Now President of the United States, Ross finds himself becoming part of the superhero world more than ever after transforming into the Red Hulk. Something that Ford had to act out on set. As you’d expect, the memes practically make themselves.

You can check out the gag reel from Captain America: Brave New World below, which also finds the likes of Anthony Mackie, Danny Ramirez, and more in some pretty uncomfortable positions as they work hard to bring the wonders of the MCU to life on the big screen. The standout though is acting veteran Harrison Ford,...

Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World will be available to buy and rent on digital platforms from April 15, before hitting 4K Blu-ray/DVD on May 13, and the gag reel from the bonus features has now been released online.

The video is really just the usual outtakes and behind-the-scenes shots of the cast having fun, but there is a pretty great Star Wars callback from Harrison Ford.

As the story goes, Ford jokingly yelled at George Lucas while shooting a scene involving some particularly cheesy dialogue on A New Hope: "George! You can type this shit, but you sure can't say it! Move your mouth when you're typing!"

Here, Ford turns to the camera while filming an early scene with Anthony Mackie and repeats the famous phrase.

The first highlights the early assassination attempt on President Ross (Harrison Ford), and we also have an interview with Tim Blake Nelson, who made his MCU return as Dr. Samuel Sterns after debuting in The Incredible Hulk back in 2008.

We caught a few shadowy glimpses of Sterns, aka the Leader, in the buildup to Brave New World's release, but he wasn't fully unveiled until the movie was in theaters, and the character's look was... not particularly well-received!

Sterns really didn't end up looking much like the leaked promo art featuring the character, which suggests that several alternate designs were considered. Aside from being clean-shaven,...

It was directed by Julius Onah and features Anthony Mackie in the lead role as the new Captain America in the MCU. Previously, he was the Falcon, but Steve Rogers [played by Chris Evans] retired, handing his shield to Mackie’s character.

After a bumpy ride through production, Captain America: Brave New World reached theatres on February 14th – and over the last two months, it has earned about $413 million at the global box office. Now, SuperHeroHype has learned that the film is set to receive a digital release next week, on April 15th, with the 4K Uhd, Blu-ray, and DVD release to follow on May 13th.

The film went into production in March of 2023, with filming lasting through June. In December of ’23, another screenwriter was brought onto the project to write new material for reshoots, which seemed to be quite substantial. It was said that the reshoots were primarily done to rework three major action sequences – and this included adding Giancarlo Esposito into the mix as Sidewinder, the leader of the Serpent Society, while also dropping a Serpent Society character that was played by wrestler Seth Rollins.

Here’s the official information on the film,...

Marvel Studios latest live-action comic book movie “Captain America: Brave New World”, is directed by Julius Onah, starring Harrison Ford, Anthony Mackie, Danny Ramirez, Carl Lumbly, Tim Blake Nelson, Shira Haas and Liv Tyler, streaming April 15, 2025 on digital formats and available May 13, 2025 on Blu-ray:

“…’Sam Wilson’ is a veteran ‘United States Air Force Pararescueman’..

“…who specializes in the use of an advanced jet pack with articulated wings.

“A skilled combatant and tactician, Wilson becomes a close friend of ‘Steve Rogers’ …

“…after assisting him during the ‘Hydra’ uprising…

“…later being recruited by him to join the ‘Avengers’.

“During the fallout related to the ‘Sokovia Accords’, Wilson sides with Rogers and becomes a fugitive as a result.

“He returns to the fold during the conflict against ‘Thanos’, falling victim to the ‘Blip’.

“After being restored to life, he is personally appointed by the now-retired Rogers to become the new ‘Captain America’…“…also...

If The Purge had you hooked, you’re definitely not alone. The film’s eerie premise, where all crime, including murder, is legal for 12 hours, became a chilling look at the breakdown of society and what happens when law and order vanish. Released in 2013, The Purge blended home-invasion horror with a dystopian twist, capturing audiences with its high-stakes tension and unsettling exploration of human nature.

It wasn’t just another slasher film; it was a commentary on class, violence, and the darkest corners of society. The movie’s success was immediate, grossing over $300 million worldwide, and it quickly developed a cult following.

The MCU movie Captain America: Brave New World hangs in there despite losing theatres in the United States and the new releases. Anthony Mackie and Harrison Ford’s film benefited from Snow White’s lousy performance, but not anymore. Captain America 4 suffered by the release of A Minecraft Movie and A Working Man. It is nowhere near the domestic top-five charts. Keep scrolling for more.

For the unversed, the fourth Captain America movie was made on a reported budget of $180 million, which is undoubtedly a large amount but still less than many MCU movies. Some of the Marvel Studio films’ budgets often go past $250 million. However, this number excludes the marketing cost. The movie features an exciting cast comprising Danny Ramirez, Shira Haas, Carl Lumbly, Xosha Roquemore, Giancarlo Esposito, Liv Tyler, Tim Blake Nelson, and Harrison Ford.

HBO has confirmed that The Leftovers is not leaving Max on June 3.

Damon Lindelof's hit drama series The Leftoversis slated to be removed from HBO's Max streaming service.

Per ComicBook.com, The Leftovers is officially going to be removed from Max as of June 3. Originally, the series was supposed to make its exit from the streaming service on April 11, though that date was pushed back by almost two months. Even with the extra time to stream the series, fans of The Leftovers have let their displeasure be known online and through social media.

Based on Tom Perrotta's 2011 novel of the same name, The Leftovers premiered on HBO in 2014 and was lauded by critics and audiences alike. The series' first season took place in a fictionalized version of Mapleton, New York, and followed the members of the Garvey family. The Leftovers takes place in...

Captain America: Brave New World Worldwide Box Office: In Comparison With Civil War ( Photo Credit – Instagram; Facebook )

Anthony Mackie has been an essential part of the MCU since his first appearance in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He was the Falcon until Chris Evans’ Captain America, aka Steve Rogers, handed him the shield. After one miniseries, Mackie finally got his solo MCU flick, Captain America: Brave New World, which is braving past the box office challenges due to its underwhelming performance. Although it has surpassed the global collection of The First Avenger, it is miles away from the Civil War’s total collection, which is the last film in the Evans-led franchise. Keep scrolling for the deets.

Before the fourth film was released, each Captain America movie earned more than its predecessor. For example, The Winter Soldier earned more than The First Avenger, and Civil War earned more than the second film.

Captain America: Brave New World continues the Marvel Cinematic Universe's string of polarizing post-Avengers: Endgame releases, with the superhero sequel earning mixed reviews from critics as its theatrical run nears its end. As the Valentine's Day release keeps getting little love from film buffs, one of its writers believes they "got it wrong" with their reviews.

Speaking with The Direct during WonderCon, Brave New World co-screenwriter Rob Edwards addressed the negative feedback from critics following the MCU blockbuster's release this past February. The Captain America sequel has a 48% critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes and one of the worst marks for an MCU movie on CinemaScore. When asked if the reception was what he expected, Edwards said, "I kinda did, kinda didn't. I think similar things have happened... with a lot of different projects. It was weird to me, because some of my friends who are critics, I said, 'I think you guys missed it.

Deadpool and Wolverine proved to be a much-needed box office jolt for Marvel Studios, and also went over pretty well with fans and critics. Unfortunately, Captain America: Brave New World wasn't quite able to keep the momentum going.

Though the movie did recently pass $400 million worldwide (which didn't always seem likely), the critical reception was mixed-negative, and the fourth Captain America movie is currently sitting at 48% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 331 reviews.

Brave New World does have its defenders, but it's probably fair to say that the movie hasn't resonated with the Marvel faithful in a way those involved with bringing the film to the screen will have been hoping for.

While speaking to The Direct at WonderCon over the weekend, one of the movie's six credited writes, Rob Edwards, was asked if he was surprised by the critical response.

"I kinda did, kinda didn't. I think similar things have happened.
