Shortlist revealed in Disney's search for new young Han Solo
There were stories going around sometime last week (I need to pay more attention to the news) of a Mrs South Africa being chosen as the Mrs World for 2016 in one of these rather pointless beauty contests. So I guess we should be happy or something, but who cares about beauty contests anyway? Seriously, it’s others men’s wives – …
Julianne Moore might be THE KINGSMAN 2 villain, but there’s no sign of Colin Firth
2016 might be the year that no one saw an R-Rated comic book movie become so successful, but we have short memories. Last year’s Valentine’s weekend release, Kingsman: The Secret Service ticked basically all the same boxes as Deadpool did. Over-the-top hilarious, gory and oh-so-meta, the only major difference was that Kingsman was about spies instead of superheroes, and had …
Jamie Foxx set to play Little John in ROBIN HOOD: ORIGINS
Sitting here and writing about all of this just feels wrong, for so many reasons – but let me explain. If you missed it from the title there is a Robin Hood: Origins movie in the works.

Matthew Vaughn talks possible KINGSMAN sequel and the return of Colin Firth
I was really worried about Kingsman: The Secret Service. Despite my glowing endorsement joining all the incredibly positive buzz for the film, there was a genuine fear that film, an ultra-violent balls-to-the-wall bit of superspy escapism, would flop horribly at the box office, seeing as it was opening against steamy juggernaut Fifty Shades of Grey. But what looked like a huge mistake …
