Melissa and Josh (Cecily Strong and Keegan-Michael Key, respectively) have been together for several years but are in a rut. Melissa sees their relationship in extremes of utter perfection or complete failure, while Josh puts in the bare minimum of effort and remains closed off. In a last ditch effort they go on a couples retreat only to get lost in the woods. The couple eventually stumbles upon the town of Schmigadoon, where everyone dresses in pastel-perfect turn-of-the-century costumes and bursts out into song about everything from lover’s spats to corn pudding....

The official “Spencer” synopsis from Neon reads: “December, 1991: The Prince and Princess of Wales’ marriage has long since grown cold. Though rumours of affairs and a divorce abound, peace is ordained for the Christmas festivities at Sandringham Estate. There’s eating and drinking, shooting and hunting. Diana knows the game.

When Jon Watts’ third standalone Spider-Man film, “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” concludes, the Tom Holland-starring mini-franchise has set a course for a brand-new start for the so-called Spider-Verse. Without getting too spoiler-y — which, yes, might be a bit silly when it comes to unpacking the literal last scenes of the film, which we will do below — the film ends with Peter Parker striking out on his own, after convincing Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) to cast a spell to make everyone (everyone) forget who he is....

“The Duke” is a very British heist movie, a true-crime caper with no guns, no car chases, toad in the hole for dinner, and Gracie Fields warbling a song called “A Nice Cup of Tea” on the soundtrack. It’s so British, in fact, that its central character is named Kempton Bunton, but at least he has the good grace to joke about it. The film’s director is Roger Michell, best known for “Notting Hill,” and who recently made the luvvie love-in documentary, “Tea with the Dames....

In the first season not written or directed by creators Amy Seimetz and Lodge Kerrigan, “The Girlfriend Experience” Season 3 is dealing with at least two themes familiar to the Starz anthology series, yet the latest twist is also its most intriguing. Data acquisition, accumulation, and analysis are massive fields, growing to digitize just about every facet of our lives, and Season 3 creator Anja Marquardt’s story posits one more: “What if desire could be quantified?...

“The Green Knight” marks a reunion between Lowery and A24. The indie studio was behind the release of “A Ghost Story,” which opened to critical raves in 2017 and grossed nearly $2 million on a $100,000 production budget. IndieWire named “A Ghost Story” the 52nd best film of the last decade, praising Lowery for his surprising and playful touch to such an existential and overwhelming narrative. A24’s official synopsis for “The Green Knight” reads: “An epic fantasy adventure based on the timeless Arthurian legend, ‘The Green Knight’ tells the story of Sir Gawain (Dev Patel), King Arthur’s reckless and headstrong nephew, who embarks on a daring quest to confront the eponymous Green Knight, a gigantic emerald-skinned stranger and tester of men....

The seductive new trailer for “The Idol,” the latest series by Sam Levinson, HBO, and A24 shows Depp writhing her way to stardom as a pop singer in desperate need of a hit. “Give ’em what they love,” Depp is advised, while Tesfaye explains that Los Angeles is where “all the monsters of the world” are created. Depp falls under the spell of Tesfaye’s coke-fueled wellness guru in the latest sneak peek at the highly-anticipated series....

Per STXfilms, the synopsis reads: Captured by the U.S. Government, Mohamedou Ould Slahi (Tahar Rahim) languishes in prison for years without charge or trial. Losing all hope, Slahi finds allies in defense attorney Nancy Hollander (Jodie Foster) and her associate Teri Duncan (Shailene Woodley). Together they face countless obstacles in a desperate pursuit for justice. Their controversial advocacy, along with evidence uncovered by formidable military prosecutor, Lt. Colonel Stuart Couch (Benedict Cumberbatch), eventually reveals a shocking and far reaching conspiracy....

For “The Northman” actor and producer Alexander Skarsgård, making what our critic called “a primal, sinewy, gnarly-as-fuck 10th-century action epic” has been a long-held dream. The Swedish star always had a soft spot for Viking and Norse mythology, and armed with director Robert Eggers and an estimated $90 million budget, he’s finally got his big, bold Viking movie. In the process, he gained 20 pounds of muscle, endured COVID shutdowns, and spent many days in mud, muck, and period-appropriate outfits....

Focus Features, who is distributing “The Northman,” has partnered with gaming company Loaded on a new video game inspired by Eggers’ film. “Vengeance: Inspired By ‘The Northman’” is a new role playing game containing 20 hours of content that is hidden within the massively popular game “Fortnite.” “Fortnite” players can access the viking game by entering a code, and Loaded is also enlisting top video game influencers to play through the game on YouTube and Twitch....

While “The Godfather” films are an iconic trilogy in film history, the behind-the-scenes making of them is an epic story in itself. Now that story is being told in Paramount+’s “The Offer,” premiering April 28. Watch the trailer below, with Ruddy (Miles Teller) struggling to get the adaptation of Mario Puzo’s novel made. Dan Fogler stars as director Francis Ford Coppola, with Matthew Goode playing Paramount Studios chief Robert Evans, and Juno Temple portraying Rudy’s secretary Bettye McCartt....

Speaking with Collider about his science-fiction shows “Upload” and “Space Force,” Daniels was once again asked the inevitable question about potentially reviving “The Office.” He refused to rule out the idea, and admitted that NBC executives would likely be thrilled if he decided to do it. But Daniels was adamant that any revival would look very different from the original series. Rather than a continuation of the lives of Pam and Jim and Dwight, he envisions a potential reboot of “The Office” as a continuation of the world of the show....

Like Applegate’s book, Sharrock’s film — scripted by Mike White, who also pops up in a funny cameo and voices a neurotic seal — is told from Ivan’s perspective (voiced by Sam Rockwell), creating a sense of discovery that helps sneak in some of the tougher ideas without permanently scarring the most sensitive members of its audience (this writer cried throughout, so make of that what you will). Initially unfolding a bit like a fairy tale in which Ivan is the (one and only) star, the film presents a fantastically fun world in which the cracks are just starting to show....

All of them are sitting in a chartered plane en route to Hawaii to attend a young women’s empowerment retreat — The Dawn of Eve — over a long weekend. The plane takes off, things don’t go as planned, and these caricatures — purposefully crafted to hit the stereotypical marks of every teen show ever — are about to become the most compelling teenage girl characters seen in a genre TV program since “Buffy the Vampire Slayer....

So begins “The Wilds” Season 2 trailer, confirming the cliffhanger ending of the first Prime Video season, which premiered in December 2020. The gendered social experiment “The Rise of Eve” led to the discovery of the all-male “control group,” which eerily mirrors the girls’ group, consisting of Sarah Pidgeon, Helena Howard, Mia Healey, Erana James, Sophia Taylor Ali, Shannon Berry, Reign Edwards, and Jenna Clause. “Brothers and Sisters” alum Rachel Griffiths stars as the mastermind scientist behind the boundary-pushing experiment to create a utopia....

He told this thrilling life story in the 2009 memoir “Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan,” which became a bestseller before being adapted into the HBO Max series that shares its name. Adelstein is played by Ansel Elgort, and Michael Mann directed the pilot of the buzzy show. But a massive story in The Hollywood Reporter this week revealed that many people in Adelstein’s circle, both characters mentioned in the book and experts on the subject matter, have questioned the accuracy of his memoir....

With all of that success, it is easy to imagine that Paramount is champing at the bit to make a threequel. While many have assumed that another “Top Gun” movie is unlikely due to the nearly 40 year gap between the first two, star Miles Teller is trying his best to make it happen. Speaking to ET this week, the actor revealed that he has spoken to Cruise about making “Top Gun 3,” and doesn’t think the idea can be ruled out just yet....

The series opens with Hart as lead character Kid, seated, breaking the fourth wall, as he says, with dramatic urgency: “People think they know me because I make them laugh, or because they’ve been to a show. But they don’t know what I did to get here or what it takes to stay here. When a person’s back is against the wall, and they gotta do whatever they can to keep from losing what they got, that’s when you get to see who a person is....

In 2020, when business operated as usual through February, only two weekends grossed under $100 million. The worst was Super Bowl weekend at $80 million. This year has had no weekend over $100 million, but that will change next week. “The Batman” opening will be the year’s first major breakout with $125 million or more. It isn’t likely to reach the heights of “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” but it is critically important that it exhibit serious heft to restore much-needed momentum for theaters’ recovery....

That’s why Miranda recruited “In the Heights” writer Quiara Alegría Hudes and composer Alex Lacamoire to join him on “Vivo.” But whereas “In the Heights” dealt with the nostalgic longing to return to the old country of Puerto Rico, “Vivo” was about journeying to Miami to spread the musical love and joy of Cuba on a very personal mission. In addition to conceiving the idea for “Vivo” and writing eight original songs, Miranda (who also wrote the songs for Disney’s upcoming animated musical, “Encanto”) voices the titular character: a singer-musician kinkajou (a rainforest “honey bear”), who plays music in a lively Havana square with his owner and duet partner Andrés (Juan de Marcos of the Buena Vista Social Club)....
