Warner Bros. has reeled in Aussie actress Jessica McNamee (Loved Ones) to star alongside Jason Statham (Transporter) and Fan Bingbing (X-Men: Days of Future Past) in director Jon Turtletaub’s (National Treasure) upcoming shark thriller Meg.
Based on the 1997 Steve Alten novel “Meg: A Novel of Deep Terror,” the film follows a former Navy captain and deep sea diver (Statham) attempting to rescue scientists trapped deep in the Pacific’s Mariana Trench by a rare 70-foot Megalodon shark.
McNamee made her horror film debut in 2009’s abduction and torture thriller The Loved Ones. She’s also starred in the 2012 romantic drama The Vow and the USA television series “Sirens.” Meg arrives in theaters on March 2, 2018.
Relativity Media has released a new trailer for its long gestating supernatural thriller Before I Wake. The film centers on a child whose dreams and nightmares become reality, tormenting his adoptive parents who remain traumatized over the loss of their own child.
Kate Bosworth plays the boy’s adoptive MILF with Thomas Jane as her loving husband. Golden Glode nominee Jacob Tremblay (Room) is the boy and, wow, does he suck! Seriously, how was this kid nominated for a fucking Golden Globe, or any award? He’s terrible! The CGI is crappy too.
Blumhouse produces the Mike Flanagan (Oculus) directed and Jeff Howard (Ouija: Origin of Evil) penned frightener, co-starring Annabeth Gish (“The X-Files”), Dash Mihok (“Ray Donovan”), and stunner Scottie Thompson (Skyline). Look for it Sept.9.
“Fear the Walking Dead,” the once highly anticipated spinoff of AMC’s brilliant “Walking Dead” series, limps its way back to our screens on Aug. 21 to complete its miserable second season. The series debuted in 2015 to a promising start, but is now plagued by its unlikable characters and dull storylines.
AMC has released a trailer for the show’s mid-season premiere and unfortunately we’re still stuck with the world’s most boring and annoying protagonists. One can only hope they meet their end and we get a new batch of survivors to cheer on.
But, who are we kidding? We’ll be watching. We have to. We love TWD universe. Besides, the show is going to Mexico and those hotel scenes look sick. We also want to know more about Salazar’s (Ruben Blades) background in Salvador. And, though she’s stupidly annoying as Alicia Clarke, Alycia Debnam-Carey (pictured) is nice to look at.
