While there is plenty to like about Mafia: The Old Country, the greatest thing about the game is its narrative. However, that narrative wouldn't be nearly as good if it weren't for the quality of the game's characters and voice acting. Playing the role of Isabella is Carina Conti. Mafia: The Old Country is her first video game credit, but she has appeared in numerous TV shows, movies, and shorts over the years.

Neon has officially turned on the television and hit play on the official trailer for Shelby Oaks. Directed by prominent YouTube film critic Chris Stuckmann in his feature debut, the supernatural horror is slated to release just in time for the spooky season on October 3, and it unravels a chilling mystery that connects a missing paranormal investigator, her sister, and a small town with a haunting past. The first footage takes viewers on a trail through the woods and back to the abandoned town in the search for Riley Brennan (Sarah Durn), as her sister Mia (Camille Sullivan) sinks into obsession in hopes that she's still alive. What she finds, however, are horrors that go beyond the bounds of reality and extend into her worst nightmares.

David W. Thompson, Brendan Sexton III, Liana Wright-Mark, Gbenga Akinnagbe, Jorge Garcia and Lauren Glazier will star in “American Muscle.” It’s a gritty, character-driven thriller from writer-director Joel Veach that was shot entirely in Santa Clarita, Calif. Production recently wrapped on the indie feature.

David Corenswet, who starred as the Man of Steel in James Gunn’s 2025 film Superman, met his wife, actress Julia Best Warner, at a summer theater program in Pennsylvania when they were teenagers. Their love was a “slow burn” before they got married in 2023.

That same year, the couple found out they were expecting their first child — just as Corenswet was in the final stages of the Superman audition process, he told PEOPLE in June 2025.

Prime Video’s Bosch spinoff, Ballard, features a group of skilled actors who make up the cold case team at the LAPD, as well as the other residents of Los Angeles. Author Michael Connelly is the creator of so many fantastic stories and characters. The show Bosch became wildly popular on Prime Video, leading to two spinoffs – Bosch: Legacy and Ballard.

If the ‘80s were full of enduring teen movies that glorified suburban young people’s search for love and acceptance, the mid-‘90s saw an explosion of independent films that subverted the fantasy aspect. Cult classics such as Larry Clark’s Kids and Kevin Smith's Clerks downplay the hope of a brighter future in favor of a bleak, dead-end outlook for America’s youth. This tone was not limited to dramas alone, as Todd Solondz’s dark comedy Welcome to the Dollhouse flips the traditional coming-of-age narrative on its head.

“Blood Shine,” a folk horror feature from Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, will be released later this year, with Aaron B. Koontz handling sales on the film via Paper Street Pictures.

It’s not often, if ever, that a Tucson independent filmmaker filming in Tucson lands a big-name star for their low-budget film.

Even more rare is securing a national distribution deal that could take that film to cineplexes around the country.

Bisbee native and former Tucson television anchor Sally Shamrell did both.

After years of anticipation, the most-funded horror film on Kickstarter is finally headed to theaters nationwide later this year. It’s not every day that a YouTube film critic makes his dreams a reality, but that was the case for Chris Stuckmann, who wrote and directed an original horror thriller that received positive reviews during a brief festival run in 2024. The cast of Shelby Oaks features Camille Sullivan (Shoresy) and Sarah Durn (Renfield) alongside Brendan Sexton III, Michael Beach, Robin Bartlett, Keith David, and Emily Bennett.

Actor Skyler Bible has played a variety of characters from an astronaut to a vampire hunter and a goofy demon. He’s now an agent on a special mission in the summer blockbuster movie "Lilo and Stitch." He speaks about his youth mentoring programs.

In a new interview, David opened up about preparing for the role while his wife Julia Best Warner was pregnant with their first child.

“She told me that she was pregnant two days after I found out I was going to screen test for Superman,” David told People. “For the first several months of her pregnancy, as is sort of protocol, we weren’t telling anybody. We had these two quite huge secrets that we just had between the two of us. And that was intense.”

Sometimes, the most enjoyable parts of a formulaic TV show are when the people making that show choose to zig instead of zag. Formula-shifting installments can take many forms, whether it’s because a show does a bottle episode or an ensemble show focuses just on one character for a specific hour. For Poker Face, a show that has taken many (if not all) of its dramatic cues from procedurals like Columbo, perhaps the easiest way to upend the formula is simple. What if there was an episode of Poker Face where no one gets murdered? What if there’s no mystery for Charlie Cale to solve?

The cast and crew of the forthcoming live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch are celebrating its upcoming release at the El Capitan Theatre on Saturday (May 17) in Hollywood!

What does art mean to us? Really. In our everyday existence, how many times each day does it touch us, change us, heal us?

Horton’s wild ride of a movie, A Hard Place, is finally heading to your home screens. A Hard Place isn’t just a one-man show, though. Horton wrangled a seriously superb cast of genre legends for this one.

Kevin Caliber (Future Man), Ashley Undercuffler ( raving,16 Bits), and even the legendary Bai Ling (The Crow) round out the cast. That’s a whole lotta genre goodness packed into o e movie.

Writer/director Ryan Oksenberg dives headfirst into the murky waters of codependence and self-destruction with Foibles, a jet-black comedy that escalates from awkward reunion to full-blown carnage. Jordan (John Karna) is a young man struggling with depression and an overwhelming sense of failure. After a one-night stand leaves without saying goodbye, he pulls down the attic ladder, where a noose he had prepared was already hanging. As he puts it around his neck, the step stool accidentally kicks out from under him, and he has seconds to survive. At the last moment, he is saved by his ex-girlfriend, Gabrielle (Carina Conti). Although Jordan claims the suicide attempt was accidental, Gabrielle suspects otherwise.

Ben Jacobson directs and co-stars in a SXSW-bowing caper set in an East Village tenement during one long and crazy summer day.

Once upon a time, mostly in the 1980s and 90s, the downtown Manhattan indie movie was a thing. Films like Jim Jarmusch’s Permanent Vacation, Edo Bertoglio’s Downtown 81, Larry Clark’s Kids and, later on, early Safdie brothers efforts like The Pleasure of Being Robbed were gritty off-the-cuff street features made on tiny budgets, shouldered by directors looking to capture the weird and wild world below 14th Street.

'Bunny' is a darkly comedic crime thriller set in the heart of downtown New York City. When two hustlers find themselves in way over their heads after an unexpected turn of events, they must navigate a world of chaos, deception, and survival.

A tenement building in the East Village of New York City. A large cast of outsized characters. Throw in a dead body, and now you've got a movie. Bunny, by first-time director Ben Jacobson, harnesses all of this energy for the tale of a night to remember.

The titular character, Bunny (Mo Stark, a co-writer with Jacobson and Stefan Marolachakis), contains multitudes. We first meet him running down a Manhattan street, blood on his clothes, his long hair disheveled from the effort. A voiceover tells us that he's a hustler, a sex worker. As he makes his way back to his building, we start to see that this seemingly muscled tough is actually the glue that keeps the entire apartment running.

The script written by Sarah Eisenberg and Becky Wangberg was powerful. It had elements of a dynamic family drama mixed with thrilling action and suspense. The producers, including Mattie Fellbaum, Drew Brandon Jones and Julianna Omelas, worked hard to make sure my job as an actor was easy. They took care of any issues on set and ensured filming went smoothly. Every actor on the film brought their A game. Getting to work with Taylor Geare, K.C. Clyde, Sofia Masson and Jacob Lynn was an absolute joy.

The moment just before is the scariest. The strobe lights snap to darkness, and the arena, filled with nearly 20,000 rowdy fans, goes quiet for a second, maybe two.

The veil drops: Eight dancers outfitted like glitzy superheroes regain their humanity, pulses racing, eyes flitting to the crowd, then back to the ground, scanning and praying that everything is in place, that the grueling hours of labor will translate. The first beat booms onto the court, and the moment passes. The women spring to life changed as if by alchemy. For nearly two minutes, the court belongs to them.

Actress Kerry Cahill portrayed Dianne, a member of the Kingdom in The Walking Dead series. She is one of the long-running characters who never had a main role but was always present, especially during vital moments of combat. Today is National Diane (Dianne) Day, and we thought it would be fun to honor Cahill and her role in the series.

If five seasons of Good Trouble — and five seasons of The Fosters before that — taught us anything, it's that you can't always get what you want, which makes the exclusive trailer for the final episodes of the Freeform hit a bit ominous as each character declares what they want.

Beth de Araújo’s Soft & Quiet follows the afternoon of an elementary school teacher named Emily (Stefanie Estes) as she attends a mixer she’s organized for a group called The Daughters of Aryan Unity. The event begins gently, with polite banter and homemade baked goods. As soon as Emily reveals the swastika she’s baked into her pie, the darker side of the gathering reveals itself, and veiled, sinister language devolves into real violence.
