Colin Farrell details opening scene of ‘The Batman’ Penguin spin-off

Fans of Fate: The Winx Saga, take heart. Creator Iginio Straffi has posted that there are other projects in the works now that the Netflix live-action series has been canceled after two seasons.

Paul Dano's critically-acclaimed performance as Edward Nashton a.k.a. The Riddler was his first foray into blockbuster filmmaking, which lead to a number of other firsts.The 38-year-old actor opened up about the production of The Batman, along with his new film The Fablemans and much more in a wide-ranging profile for GQ Hype. He revealed that The Batman was by far the largest production he had ever worked on (with an estimated budget between $185 million and $200 million), which lead to innovative ways of keeping the film's secrets under wraps...

box office success, and that’s in part due to director Matt Reeves’ script — which he carefully kept under wraps.Star Paul Dano — who played the sinister yet cunning Riddler — admitted how the screenplay was under such tight security that production locked up the document.The 38-year-old actor recently spoke to GQ Hype about the script, noting that DC even had a tracker plugged on the doc.“‘Don’t lose this. Put it in your special binder,’” the Ruby Sparks” star recalled being told by producers.

Movie studios go to great lengths to keep storylines from their films to leak and superhero movies are known to take the secrecy one step further. Paul Dano is opening up about his time filming The Batman and the “special binder” that had a “tracking device” to maintain everything under wraps.

While “Black Adam” is on the horizon, “Joker 2” is putting a cast together, and a sequel to “The Batman” is in the early development stages, there is still some mystery about where things will be going next for DC Films. A rather large update has been dropped today, giving us a small idea of what else could be coming, such as a mystery film from James Gunn (“The Suicide Squad,” “Peacemaker”) and a sequel to “Man of Steel,” with Henry Cavill reprising the Superman role.

Zack Sharf Paul Dano has been acting since the early 2000s, but it took playing the Riddler opposite Robert Pattinson in “The Batman” for the world to start noticing the 38-year-old in his every day life. As part of a new GQ cover story, Dano said he now gets recognized in public when he least expects it. One example: When he goes to get the mail. “Like a mailman: ‘Oh, shit!! Riddler!!” the actor said. “When it was said I was going to do that part, I never received that many texts, phone calls, emails,” Dano added later in the interview, noting the production went to extreme lengths to ensure none of Dano’s Riddler production materials would get lost or leaked.

Pierce Brosnan was once in the running to play Batman, and he is looking back on his campaign to embody the caped crusader.

Colin Farrell has joked that living with Barry Keoghan was like living with "raccoons". The pair shared a house while filming Martin McDonagh's 'Banshees of Inisherin' in Ireland but Colin admitted the younger actor tried his patience with his messy ways. Speaking to Ryan Tubridy on 'The Late Late Show', he said: "He lived with me during the film and you know, I’d come in the morning and the place was like raccoons had been there - I'm not joking.

Sometimes adulation can be a bit much for Colin Farrell.

Wilson Chapman editor “Saturday Night Live” lampooned the seemingly endless barrage of bad headlines in in the opening sketch of Season 48’s second episode. Bowen Yang starred in the opener as a game show host for “So You Think You Won’t Snap,” a program which features contestants being read real-life headlines in an attempt to make them snap, whether that means breaking a glass or punching an assistant. Also in the sketch was Heidi Gardner as a yoga teacher who is forced to watch a video of President Joe Biden talking about his mental state on CNN; Chloe Fineman as a an apolitical mom outraged by Chris Pratt’s voice acting in the “Super Mario Bros” movie; Kenan Thompson as a contestant who loses it at the very mention of Elon Musk; and Devon Walker as a contestant who is confronted by a barrage of negative news involving Kanye West. Watch the sketch below.

What’s in store for the DC Universe? Well, while Warner Bros. Discovery canceled projects like “Batgirl” and “Wonder Twins,” and many worried about the state of dozens of projects still in development, filmmaker Matt Reeves’ take on the “Batman” universe is still moving forward unbothered.

Big Little Lies producer Bruna Papandrea’s production company, Made Up Stories, is expanding with a new UK office run by Sarah Harvey, who has joined the company as a producer and creative director. Harvey officially began her new position in August.
