Stars: Hunter C. Smith, Alexandra Bokova, Eric Prochnau, Naiia Lajoie, Richard Dorton, Daniel Edward Masterson, Rob Batie, Donald Russell | Written and Directed by Alan Maxson
Best known for his work playing monsters and creatures, Alan Maxson has a fascinating career containing credits such as The Gingerdead Man’s mouth, Shark Fuel Fiend, and King Ghidorah’s performance capture in 2019’s Godzilla: King of The Monsters. He turns his hand to writing and directing this intergalactic feature, complete with a history that has to be established first thing.
Long oppressed by the Kameen, the Lokkein rose up to try and free themselves from their captors. The brutal battles slaughtered many of their race, leaving the few Lokkein survivors exiled to a planet without drinkable water. The only reason they survive this barren world is a rejuvenation vial, a strange liquid that rejuvenates the planet’s liquid once a year. It is...

Jason Liles, who most recently played the albino gorilla in Dwayne Johnson’s “Rampage,” has been cast as one of several motion-capture actors playing Godzilla’s three-headed archenemy in Legendary and Warner Bros.’ “Godzilla: King of Monsters,” TheWrap has learned exclusively.
King Ghidorah is a kaiju film monster that has golden-scaled wings and three heads. Liles plays the middle head, while Alan Maxson is the right head and Richard Dorton is the left head in the epic action-adventure film that pits Godzilla against some of the biggest monsters in pop culture history; additional mo-cap actors contribute to the body movement of the creature.
Michael Dougherty is directing from a screenplay he wrote with Zach Shields. Liles is joining the previously announced cast of Millie Bobby Brown, Vera Farmiga, O’Shea Jackson, Sally Hawkins, Thomas Middleditch and Bradley Whitford.

Recent news has been discouraging for actors who work in video games, or for those who have thought about trying to break into the hypercompetitive, often cloistered field. Since reaching a peak of more than $20 billion in 2008, annual revenue for the business has plummeted by about 40 percent—30 percent within the past two years alone, according to research firm Npd Group. Additionally, what gains the industry is making are coming through games such as Angry Birds and Words With Friends, not the high-end, high-production titles—such as “L.A. Noire” and “Call of Duty”—that create jobs for actors and performers of all skill sets. “There is a bit of a lull right now,” Ferenc Laczko, of Independent Artists Agency in Beverly Hills, told Backstage via email. But developments in motion-capture technology, as well as new gaming consoles expected from Sony and Microsoft within the year, indicate that this niche continues...

My God, the internet exploded with nerdalicious nerdliness over the last few days. Nothing really mind-blowing, but still, some fun/weird/profoundly disturbing things came bopping around last week, and to make things interesting, there's a video clip for all of them.
First, let's start with the biggest news: There's a new Thor clip, and while it doesn't show much that we haven't already seen, it does have one itty bitty interesting moment, around 25 seconds in:
Yeah, pretty sure that's Hawkeye, who you may remember will be played by Jeremy Renner in the eventual Avengers film. And since the Avengers-related movies have a habit of having characters cameo here and there... well...
Next up, I've talked for a while about how interested I am in Kevin Tancharoen's upcoming Mortal Kombat: Rebirth webseries. The original trailer, which was actually just a short film that he made to try to get...

Mortal Kombat!!! Okay, I couldn’t resist. I loved that commercial advertising Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis back when I was in Junior High. But 2011 is the year of Mk, folks, because we have the two original movies coming to Blu-ray (here), a new multi-platform video game, and now, a new miniseries/web series called Mortal Kombat: Rebirth from Fame director Kevin Tancharoen, based off of his amazing fan-made trailer (here).
The film is currently filming in Vancouver, and Cbm has a still from the series, which while is just an on-set pic, it’s something to get us excited, I think:
That’s Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade to the left. The other cast includes Michael Jai White (Jax), Ian Anthony Dale (Hanzo Hasashi aka Scorpion), Richard Dorton (Reptile), and Matt Mullins (Johnny Cage). Can’t wait.

Mortal Kombat: Rebirth Trailer Is As Brutal As We Remember
In a major sneak trailer that recently hit the web, martial arts sensation (and all around bad-ass) Michael Jai White and sci-fi bombshell Jeri Ryan show up as Capt. Jackson "Jax" Briggs and partner Dt. Sonya Blade. White, looking as epically pissed off as usual, sits in a darkened interrogation room and lays out the dossiers on several vicious killers to an appropriately shadowed prisoner, the dull orange of his prison garb standing out amidst the dirty sepia of the room. Apparently the city is going all to hell and Jax is willing to go the distance to make sure the good guys win.
Michael Jai White as "Jax" Jeri Ryan as "Sonya Blade"
As the prisoner sits quietly, Jax describes the graphic bloody details behind the brutal serial killer codenamed "Reptile" and the surgeon-gone-psychotic codenamed "Baraka". Bringing mention to former action star Johnny Cage,...
