Everything Everywhere All At Once Directors Team With Nathan Min And Steven Yeun For A24 Comedy Pilot

The filmmaking duo known collectively as Daniels (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert) struck rhetorical gold with their multiverse-spanning A24 outing "Everything Everywhere All At Once." The film, which just became A24's first film to cross the $100 million mark at the global box office, had remarkable legs — alongside strong critical acclaim — for a mind-bending feature about a woman who starts jumping through her alternate universe lives while struggling with taxes. It's a wonderful surrealist comedy with action and sci-fi elements, showcasing the directors' creativity and talent in one of the best movies of the year.

Invincible Star Steven Yeun on Possible Crossover With The Boys

TV fans who don't know where the comics came from, might be wondering if fans will ever get a chance to see Invincible cross over with The Boys. After all, they both air on Prime Video from Amazon, and they're both very, very R-rated. But during a press tour for his new film Nope, Invincible star Steven Yeun gave a one-word answer when we asked about the possibility -- "nope." And yeah, it was part of a gag he was doing with ComicBook.com's Chris Killian, but it's also one that he seemed slightly more introspective (or maybe just confused) about than the other questions.

Steven Yeun on The Walking Dead Return: The Door Is "Slammed Shut"

There are still eight episodes until the end of The Walking Dead, but don't expect to see Glenn one last time. Steven Yeun, who starred on the first six seasons of the AMC zombie drama, is ruling out a return to The Walking Dead Universe as Glenn Rhee. Like his comic book counterpart, Glenn's fate was to be the victim of Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), killed by the villain's blood-thirsty baseball bat in the show's Season 7 premiere. Unlike Abraham Ford (Michael Cudlitz) — the episode's other victim who reappeared in a dream sequence later that season — Glenn has yet to return to the show in a flashback or cameo from beyond the grave.
