Jack Black and Paul Rudd will soon be seen together in the cinema film Anaconda, a comedic adventure film where a movie set transforms into a deadly survival story. The official first trailer has now been released.

Doug (Black) and Griff (Rudd) are childhood friends who decide to make their dream come true: to remake the cult classic Anaconda from 1997. With just a handful of crew members, they venture deep into the Amazon jungle, where they quickly discover that their passion project takes on life-threatening forms.

During The Holidays

Anaconda will be in cinemas this christmas.

Netflix has released a new image of Frankenstein, the new adaptation of Mary Shelley's iconic book. In it, the monster from the film is prominently featured.

The film is directed by horror master Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth). The role of the monster is played by Jacob Elordi, while Dr. Frankenstein himself is portrayed by Oscar Isaac.

Story

Frankenstein tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a 17th-century doctor who experiments with the creation of new life. One day he succeeds, but the result terrifies him.

As the monster attempts to understand its new life, Victor flees in fear. Eventually, the two meet again in a confrontation with horrifying, fatal consequences...

Check out the new image below. Del Toro wanted to ensure that this monster deviated from the 'classic' Frankenstein look we are familiar with from other films. He describes it as "breathtakingly beautiful, in an almost otherworldly way." Frankenstein also features roles for Mia Goth, Christoph Waltz, Lars Mikkelsen, and more. The film will be available on Netflix starting November 7, but first gets a limited release in theaters worldwide.

After the success of his work on Eric Kripke's superhero universe on Prime Video, Michele Fazekas returns as showrunner for a new season of Gen V. In this spin-off of The Boys, we again follow a group of young supes in training at the corrupt Godolkin University. The second season starts this week. Is the reception as good as the debut season?

The series revolves around students with superpowers who train at an exclusive university run by Vought International. As they learn to control their powers, they encounter political intrigues, personal traumas, and moral dilemmas. On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season currently holds a Tomatometer score of 88% based on 16 reviews.

Bigger And Bloodier

James Hunt from ComicBook.com sees a rising trend in the series. According to him, the second season is "bigger, bloodier, and possibly even better than The Boys itself." He appreciates how the series expands its world while increasing intensity without sacrificing character development.

Vicky Jessop from the London Evening Standard notes that the series manages to maintain a good balance. "It could easily feel clichéd and too self-aware, but the series convincingly proves itself with enough flair and attitude. Thank goodness, God is still awful," according to Jessop.

A Success Again

Alison Herman from Variety observes that the season focuses more on the characters than on sharp satire. According to her, "Gen V now leans more on its heroes: well-intentioned youngsters trying to distinguish between true heroism and its rehearsed image." Herman notes that the main characters succeed in this once again.



Aidan Kelley from Collider praises the young cast's performances. He writes that "the series still stands and falls with the charm of its characters. In season two, the core cast is again easy to invest in while they continue to explore their powers in deep and unique ways."

Repetitive And Immature

Nick Schager from The Daily Beast is less enthusiastic. He believes that the second season tries to match the thematic depth of The Boys but fails in doing so. According to him, it is "a repetitive and charisma-less teenage supes story that feels still immature."
