The Arrowverse has always been a place of different possibilities no matter how bizarre they may seem. Each hero had their own standing and story to tell. While some ended on a bittersweet note, others found their footing in one way or another. Each story went down its own path with either major or minor crossovers taking place from time to time.

Batman has been played by a slew of talents, but one of the most iconic versions was played by Kevin Conroy, for over two decades. However, the actor sadly passed away in 2022, leaving behind big shoes to fill when it came to his portrayal of Batman. The actor had already shaped an iconic interpretation of the Dark Knight.

"Found 'em! I'll send some guys..." Quiver Distribution has unveiled an official trailer for The Collective, a new action thriller from filmmaker Tom DeNucci. This is yet another of these junk action films, with a similar plot to so many others - involving hitmen and traffickers and taking out the "bad guys". A young recruit to a mysterious agency finds himself going rogue on his first assignment, tracking down a dangerous group of "untouchable" human traffickers. The Collective charts the story of a group of righteous assassins who take aim at a human trafficking ring that's backed by a network of billionaires. Lucas Till stars as Sam Alexander, a "rookie assassin", joined by Ruby Rose, Mercedes Varnado, Paul Ben-Victor, Tyrese Gibson, John Fiore, Levon Panek, plus Don Johnson as their leader. This looks as uninteresting and derivative as anything can, even the action. Will anyone even watch? // Continue Reading ›...

While the Marvel Cinematic Universe was busy changing the way Hollywood studios approach their biggest franchises (and all which that implies), The CW and DC were off making TV history with the Arrowverse. Much like the House of Ideas' multimedia superhero property, the Arrowverse was all over the place in terms of its quality and success. Certain killjoys would tell you its flagship series went on for way too long, while others would blame its limited resources and financing for preventing it from truly doing justice to the epic comic book arcs it adapted.
Overall, though, the Arrowverse was a daring experiment in the best way. That's why we're hitting the pause button and reflecting on its legacy before DC Studios head honchos James Gunn and Peter Safran usher in their shiny-new unified vision for all things DC-related.

For a high octane action film starring Vin Diesel as an extreme athlete version of James Bond, "XXX3: Return of Xander Cage" is much more entertaining than it has any right to be. With "Fast X" quickly approaching to help kick-off the summer season, it's clear Diesel has learned that, sometimes, there is safety in numbers. Having a huge cast around you helps take the pressure off of the actor at the top of the call sheet, and Diesel embraced the idea of having a team of some of the best action stars in the world come on board for the third adventure of Xander Cage.
Directed by DJ Caruso, the culmination of one of the most ridiculously entertaining action franchises in recent memory featured a stacked cast that included Donnie Yen, Ruby Rose, Samuel L. Jackson, Kris Wu, Toni Collette, and Thai boxer extraordinaire Tony Jaa as a bleach blonde villain named Talon.

Exclusive: Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., the rising actor best known for starring in the hit Starz series Bmf (or Black Mafia Family), has signed with M88 for management.
The show inspired by a true story has Flenory playing his own father, notorious hip-hop icon and kingpin Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory Sr., who with his brother Terry “Southwest T” Flenory (Da’Vinchi) rose from the decaying streets of southwest Detroit in the late 1980s to give birth to one of the most influential crime families in the country.
The project from executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, which is heading into its third season, marks the younger Flenory’s acting debut. And despite his unusually intimate connection to the story, he only won his role following a highly competitive casting process, and more than a year spent in intensive acting training.

"John Wick" is undoubtedly one of the most brutal action franchises of all time. Just look at the numbers. In the first three "John Wick" films, the beloved assassin kills a total of 299 people, with "John Wick: Chapter 2" serving as the deadliest film in the series. One eagle-eyed fan claims that John offs 140 people in "John Wick: Chapter 4" (depending on how you count), bringing his total kills to 439. This makes him one of the most prolific murderers in all of film history, as his body count is even higher than Michael Meyers' and Jason Voorhees' — combined!
Of course, not every kill makes a huge impact. John's weapon of choice is a pistol, and gunshots become almost mundane after a while. Don't get us wrong, being shot in the head is an absolutely brutal way to go, but there are different levels of viciousness in the "John Wick" universe.

This article contains some John Wick: Chapter 4 spoilers.
This weekend marks John Wick’s long anticipated return to cinemas in the fourth installment of the hitman’s story. Keanu Reeves’ formerly retired assassin has earned a reputation for the merciless nature of his kills, and while the motivations of the “Baba Yaga” might have begun with the simplicity of revenge, his saga has now spiraled into a complex display of the politics of this violent, shadowy underworld. Lucky for us though, Wick’s spiral has also resulted in the creation of some of the most fantastic fight sequences ever put to film.
This action series is relentless in its incredible use of hand-to-hand combat, stunt coordination, and weapons expertise, which all come together to forge an array of tense, visually inventive set pieces that seem to grow bigger and more brutal with each passing release. The best fight sequences...

When “John Wick” hit theaters in 2014, few could have predicted that this under-the-radar Keanu Reeves action movie would not only spawn a franchise, but kick off a grand mythology of underground assassins. The simple premise of a retired hitman seeking revenge against those responsible for killing his dog struck a chord with audiences and launched the directing careers of stuntmen-turned-filmmakers Chad Stahelski and David Leitch.
“John Wick: Chapter 2” opened in 2017 and grossed $171 million at the worldwide box office, while “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” followed in 2019 and grossed over $327 million worldwide. Each film added new members to the existing ensemble – Ian McShane and Lance Reddick were joined by Laurence Fishburne, Halle Berry, Anjelica Huston, Ruby Rose, Donnie Yen, Common and Bill Skarsgard – and expanded the world of “John Wick,” all while Reeves’ character fought like hell in a variety of situations.

For those who've been following along on John Wick's increasingly labyrinthine journey back into the shadowy assassin underworld, things are much different for Keanu Reeves' coldblooded killer with an affinity for dogs and muscle cars (and guns ... lots of guns) than they were when he first burst upon the scene back in 2014. The more grounded and intentionally vague original movie only ever teased the hidden dealings behind The Continental hotel and its assorted trigger-happy society of patrons, peeking out just on the edge of every frame. Since then, every sequel has dived deeper and deeper into the world-building of the "John Wick" franchise and now, well, audiences have an entire mythology to keep track of as we steamroll toward this week's release of "John Wick: Chapter 4."

Keanu Reeves' retired hitman has overcome countless obstacles while carving a bloody path of vengeance throughout each and every "John Wick" movie. As if having his dog murdered and his sweet ride stolen by Theon Greyjoy (of all people!) wasn't bad enough, he then had to fend off both Ruby Rose and Common, NBA basketball star Boban Marjanović, and practically every contract killer in the world as he attempted to stay one step ahead of everyone else during the subsequent sequels. While the upcoming "John Wick: Chapter 4" will pit our favorite reluctant assassin against even more formidable foes, "John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum" also upped the ante considerably back in 2019 -- notably through the addition of the Shinobi, a pair of ninja assassins played by Cecep Arif Rahman and Yayan Ruhian.

Natalie Terrazzino in Hunt Her, Kill Her. Courtesy of Welcome Villian Films
There have been dozens of films in which an innocent woman is forced to summon previously untapped toughness and resourcefulness to fend off a group of assailants. An early example is a blind Audrey Hepburn in Wait Until Dark whose home is invaded by thugs mistakenly thinking some drugs were stashed there. Among the grittier, bloodier explorations of the premise is 1978’s I Spit On Your Grave, which spawned a slew of sequels and imitators including its next-generation return bout, I Spit On Your Grave: DÉJÀ Vu, in 2019.
In Hunt Her, Kill Her, Natalie Terrazzino plays a woman on her first night as the janitor in a large industrial facility. She’s worried about her sick child left in the care of a neighbor. She starts hearing sounds that are troubling, since she’s supposed to be...

As hard as he tries to leave this life behind him, John Wick just can't catch a break. You go on one rampage to avenge your dead puppy and the next thing you know, your face lights up on every assassin's wishlist. Given that he's made it all the way to" John Wick: Chapter 4," it's going to take a lot for someone to take Wick down. Michael Nyqvist, Riccardo Scamarcio, Common, Ruby Rose, and Asia Kate Dillon have all made some fun adversaries to Baba Yaga. But then we have Mark Dacascos as Zero, who really switches things up.
Most of Wick's enemies go after him because a sacred rule has been broken or it's just business, but Dacascos' Zero takes a different approach. In "John Wick: Chapter 3," after the hit order is put out for Wick, the Adjudicator (Dillon) recruits the hitman and his crew to put an end to him.
