The news seems to have been revealed by series star Sammi Haney, who shared the news with fans on Instagram. "Sad to say that Raising Dion is CANCELED [sic] Thank you for all of the amazing support we got from all of our wonderful fans!" Haney wrote, in part. "Season 2 was a success, equal to Season 1, even if just looking at how many people watched all of it and wanted a season 3!"

Mick Jagger has praised Machine Gun Kelly and Yungblud for making sure there is still "life in rock 'n' roll". In conversation with The Independent, The Rolling Stones frontman discussed the rock landscape in the modern era, expressing what he sees as a recent lack of young bands taking the genre forward and pointing to MGK and Yungblud as two artists finally bucking the trend.

Ryan Coogler breathed new life into the series with 2015’s “Creed,” which followed Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky Balboa as he trained a young boxer named Adonis (Michael B. Jordan), the son of his late rival Apollo Creed. The film earned strong reviews for taking the franchise in a modern direction while maintaining what people loved about the original films, and sequels were quickly planned. When “Creed II” was released in 2018, it cemented Michael B. Jordan’s...

When Netflix announced in 2017 that they would be making a live-action adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher saga, it became clear right away that the streaming giant wanted their own Game of Thrones. An epic, mature fantasy adventure series that takes place in a dark world with a complex mythology, the Polish novel series seemed to be exactly what Netflix was looking for, with the high viewership of the show’s first two seasons proving them right.

No piece of art maintains its iron grip dominance on pop culture forever. Eventually, people were going to switch the radio dial away from Psy’s “Gangnam Style.” Similarly, the works of John Grisham were never going to permanently be the biggest literary phenomenon in America. As for Shrek, this 2001 animated movie seemed to be the new indisputable king of American animation, especially with the enormous success of Shrek 2. But even an ogre as layered as this one wasn’t always going to be at the epicenter of global culture. Sooner or later, Shrek was going to cede its crown. The close proximity of the end for the Shrek saga’s pop culture ubiquity was made more apparent than ever with the lackluster 2007 entry in the franchise Shrek the Third.

Climate change and environmental catastrophes are real threats to humanity, so it’s no surprise that the horror genre has tackled these issues. The fear that accompanies these horrors can feel more effective than a regular supernatural haunting because these are things that can happen in real life. Natural disasters,...

Oh, Black Mirror. What on Earth will we do with you? A science fiction anthology series from the mind of creator Charlie Brooker, it first began back in 2011 and made quite a splash. Dark yet incisive, it showed how the terrors of an increasingly technological world have become intertwined with our own lives. Just as we are shaping technology, we are also being shaped by it in equal measure. It is a work of speculative fiction that has become one of the most-watched shows of its kind once it was picked up by the streaming service Netflix back in 2015.

At face value, the story of Maurice Flitcroft (Mark Rylance), the central character of the recent British film, The Phantom of the Open is laced with absurdities. The “world's worst golfer” was a crane driver from Cumbria in the United Kingdom who attempted to qualify for The Open, despite never before having played a round of golf. Fantastical, certainly, but true. Likewise, it’s also one of those humanizing stories that seem idiosyncratic to British cinema.

There are those who feel that, for a work of fiction to be relatable, it’s almost essential that it also be reflective of the audience. They want characters who share their age and background, live in their time, and occupy familiar settings. It’s why some prefer their Batman realistic. It's why a member of my family turns their nose up at Mary Poppins, a film I always thought was impossible for anyone except P. L. Travers to dislike. And it's why some teenagers go for films and shows set in school, be it Bayside High School from Saved By the Bell, Degrassi Community School from the Degrassi franchise, or James K. Polk Middle School from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide.

Superhero movies as we know them today have become well-known for big fight sequences against the movie’s supervillain. Typically filled with CGI, these moments are set up to be the climax, as the villain provides the primary source of conflict for the main character(s). However, unlike other comic book based movies, the Venom series’ most interesting source of conflict doesn’t come from its big supervillain battles. While the fights between Venom/Eddie (Tom Hardy) and other symbiotes certainly provide a fun spectacle, they distract from the more compelling source of conflict – Eddie and Venom’s relationship.

After a two-year wait, the much anticipated fourth and final season of the Netflix hit Stranger Things is fast approaching, and hopefully with a lot of answers. Season 3 left viewers with several questions about the fate of the beloved characters and their unfinished stories. The Season 4 trailer only...

The original The X-Files TV series, airing from 1993 to 2002, and created by Chris Carter, captivated millions each week thanks to its dark and twisty plot of an extraterrestrial invasion covered up by the government. Its main characters, two FBI agents, Special Agent Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Special Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), had electric chemistry on screen and were the perfect duo to tackle unexplained cases. Mulder, the eternal believer relying on experience and pure instincts, and Scully, the eternal skeptic, hardened by science and undisputed facts.

Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy commented on Solo’s lukewarm reception by fans, revealing the studio intends to keep recasts outside the Star Wars universe. Talking to Vanity Fair about the franchise's future, Kennedy underlined how Solo’s failure and The Mandalorian’s success indicate Star Wars’ longevity rests on the shoulders of a new cast of characters.

Friday the 13th and Halloween have both dominated the slasher film genre for decades. People can't seem to get enough of Jason and Michael, and with good reason - they keep coming back from the dead, and we are here for it. Slasher films tend to be viewed as some...

Though most people might not remember this unit in their history class, The Gilded Age’s culture and fashion have been all over the media recently. In January, HBO released the highly acclaimed and extremely popular show, The Gilded Age, starring legends of the stage and screen like Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, and Carrie Coon. And just this past May, the guests of the Met Gala showcased their best fashion looks for “In America: An Anthology of Fashion” with the theme focusing specifically on the looks and style of the Gilded Age in America.

With anime becoming one of the fastest growing forces in film, streaming services have attempted to do their part to entice fans of the genre to their platform. HBO Max’s acquisition of streaming rights for most of Studio Ghibli’s films was huge when it launched, and Hulu has stocked their library up with some iconic anime series. Netflix, however, has been at the forefront of delivering top-notch anime content with how they’ve produced a good deal of original anime tv series as well as big adaptations, like Castlevania and Pacific Rim: The Black.

Science fiction is the genre of wonder, technology, and terrifying ideas. It is the longing of the universe, and it's the chips inside our brains, the neon cyberpunk landscapes of a crumbling society, and the extraterrestrial monsters at the bottom of the ocean. It is also home to the most...

Today, Variety announced that the legendary director’s newest project would be hitting screens early, bumping up from a release date in mid-November to one in August.
