Carrie-Anne Moss joining ‘Iron Fist’, reprising her ‘Jessica Jones’ role
I haven’t watched all of Jessica Jones. I know Carrie-Anne Moss is in it, though. I also know Carrie-Anne Moss is in the second season of Daredevil, cause I did watch that shit. Now Moss is joining Iron Fist, becoming another integral thread weaving together all of the Netflix-Marvel-Verse.
Cary Fukunaga might direct Kubrick’s ‘Napoleon’ For HBO
Cary Fukunaga might be returning to HBO, after rocking our collective asses with the first season of True Detective. The director (dare I say…auteur?) is rumored to be taking on Kubrick’s Napoleon for the channel.
‘Preacher’ Series Premiere Trailer: A Hell of A Good Time
Man, I can’t fucking wait for Preacher. It was one of my favorite comic book series during my late adolescence, exploiting my cliched angst with the Lord, anger at the World, and love of Sex and Violence. Not much has changed deep in my Soul since them days sixteen+ years ago, and so I’m hoping I have a mutually explicit reverie for the TV series.
‘The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai’ being adapted by Kevin Smith for TV
I first saw The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai last month, and I fucking *loved it* through and through. What a coked out masterpiece of 1980s history. But a TV series? Being adapted by Kevin Smith? I’m cautious, at best.
‘Mr. Robot’ Season 2 Trailer: FSociety For A Second Summer
If it weren’t for Fargo, then Mr. Robot would be my favorite series of the past few years. I cannot fucking wait for the second season. Can you?! I hope not!
Fox hints at more ‘X-Files’ coming in 2017-18
More X-Files! I didn’t fuck with the mini-series this year, but I know several people who did. It was uneven? I guess? That’s my takeaway. I’m content to let my old school X-periences (HAHAHAHA, I’m the worst!) stand on their own. But for those who dug into the mini-series, I imagine this is good news.
‘Supergirl’ gets second season on CW; ‘Agent Carter’ cancelled
One fan fave gets renewed, one fan fave gets axed. I don’t have a particular allegiance to either, though I really wanted to watch Agent Carter and I feel 100% responsible for its demise. Regarding Supergirl, I’m not really interested. However, I support it on principal, seeing that it is a DC property that doesn’t brood and gloom its way through existence.
