According to a post on X by industry insider @MyTimeToShineHello, George Clooney was considered for a role in The Marvels.

When Christopher Lee became Dracula, the character was already famous. While Universal and Bela Lugosi originally made Dracula popular, that older, dramatic style wasn’t resonating with audiences anymore. Lee reinvented Dracula, portraying him as more like a beast – dangerous and primal. His version of the Count continues to influence how Dracula is depicted in movies and TV today.

The 2020s are shaping up to be a golden age for anime.

Steven Spielberg received his first Grammy Award on Sunday, February 1st, at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. He won Best Music Film for his work as a producer on the 2024 Disney+ documentary Music by John Williams, which celebrates the 70-year career of the renowned composer who frequently collaborated with Spielberg on iconic film scores, including those for Schindler’s List, Jaws, and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.

As a big fan of the Jurassic World movies, I was a little disappointed to find that the complete trilogy isn’t available on Tubi. You can watch the first two films, but if you want to see Jurassic World Dominion, you’ll need to find it on another streaming service. And, unfortunately, the newest movie, Jurassic World Rebirth – though it doesn’t star Chris Pratt – isn’t on Tubi either. It’s a shame, as I was hoping to have them all in one place!

The documentary Music by John Williams explores the life and career of the legendary composer behind some of cinema’s most famous scores. Known for his work on franchises like Star Wars, Superman, and Harry Potter, Williams has a particularly strong connection with director Steven Spielberg, having composed the music for hits like Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park, Schindler’s List, and the Indiana Jones films. It’s a fitting tribute that Spielberg recently won a Grammy for a film celebrating Williams and his incredible contributions to the art of filmmaking.
