It Ends With Us,byColleen Hoover,is finally becoming a movie. There isn’t an official release date yet, but fans can’t help but wonder if there will be more Hoover movie adaptations. With a long catalog of published books (and more than 20 million books sold) and no signs of her stopping anytime soon, more movie adaptations sound like a great idea. There has already been an adaptation of one of her novels, but it was a Prime Video show and did not gain a lot of traction....

Danny Boyle was, at one point, set to directJames Bond 25. Unfortunately, theSlumdog Millionaireand28 Days Laterfilmmaker wound up departing the project just months before production was set to get underway. This was chalked up to “creative differences” by both sides of the aisle, but the in-depth drama behind the scenes was surely much more interesting than all of that. While we may never get the full scope of what led to Boyle’s departure, his experience has led him to a place where he’s likely never going to try and tackle a franchise movie again....

There is a visceral reaction from horror and comedy films which isn’t generated by anything else. Horror forces us to tense up and squint, heartbeat raised and knuckles whitened; comedies leave our cheeks aching from laughter and reduce us to red-faced breathlessness. Zombies have been famously featured in both of these genres (one more traditionally, one more contemporaneously), but what is it about these gruesome, brain-eating creatures that is so entertaining?...
