You’ll be adoring this week’s episode of Most Craved, because we’ve got actor Jason Dohring in the studio! The star of Veronica Mars, Moonlight and the new caper film The Squeeze (in theaters and on VOD this Friday, April 17) joins hosts William Bibbiani (CraveOnline), Jenna Busch (Legion of Leia) and Silas Lesnick (Coming Soon) to talk all about the week’s biggest news stories in entertainment: Wonder Woman loses a director, Olivia Munn joins the cast of X-Men Apocalypse, and the new, possibly spoiler-filled trailer for Terminator Genisys!
THE SQUEEZE is a caper about a notorious gambler who discovers a modest young man in a small rural town with uncommon golf skills. Seeing his potential, the gambler convinces him to abandon his dreams of winning the US Open and start playing in high-stakes matches. They don’t lose. The stakes grow higher and higher until the game becomes “life or death.”
‘Wonder Woman’ Needs a New Director
Michelle MacLaren was all set to be the first female director to helm a giant superhero blockbuster. Then, five months later, she has left the project due to “creative differences.” What the hell happened? Are the fans too eager to find someone to blame? Where will she go next? [Editor’s Note: Warner Bros. has already replaced Michelle MacLaren on Wonder Woman!]
Olivia Munn is Psylocke in ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’
Olivia Munn, the co-star of The Newsroom, has been cast in X-Men Apocalypse as the fan favorite mutant Psylocke. Good? Bad? Will die hard geek audiences ever accept that Olivia Munn is one of their own? And should anyone really get excited about this news, given how many times the X-Men movie franchise has included an awesome character in the films, only to screw them up, sideline them, or forget they ever existed in the following sequels?
Is the ‘Terminator Genisys’ Trailer a Spoiler?
The new trailer for Terminator Genisys makes it look like a ballsy movie, thanks in large part to the surprising reveal of the film’s new villain. We won’t reveal it here, because many audience members are wondering if this new trailer gave away a plot point from the film that should have come as a shock. But can it really be a spoiler if the studio thinks audiences can learn all about it months in advance, without ruining the film?
