It seems most high-profile actors are making their way to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and now Giancarlo Esposito is hinting that he'd like to join the MCU.
During People Magazine's pre-Emmy interviews, Giancarlo Esposito, who was nominated for both The Mandalorian and Better Call Saul, was asked what the upcoming season of Mandalorian might look like — a question many of us are dying to know the answer to. In his answer, Esposito not only hinted at the broader scope and answered questions of Mandalorian's season 2, but just might have accidentally let it slip that it's going to have a season 3 and 4 on the way — and may have implied he knows where this train is running already! Here are Esposito's …
We're a month away from the premiere of The Mandalorian Season 2 on Disney+ and we've already got an interesting tease to unpack. Giancarlo Esposito hasn't been shy in speaking about his work on The Mandalorian in the past (see our recent interview with the actor for further proof). But Esposito's latest comments on what will undoubtedly be a key showdown opposite Mandalorian actor Pedro Pascal are somehow more attention-grabbing than his past remarks. Esposito offered a tantalizing teaser while speaking with Entertainment Weekly as part of a grand Season 2 preview with the rest …
With Amazon’s fantastic series The Boys returning for Season 2 on September 4, I recently landed an exclusive video interview with Giancarlo Esposito. As you might recall from the season finale, Esposito was revealed to be Stan Edgar, the CEO of Vought International, and his role has definitely been expanded in the second season. During the interview, Esposito revealed how showrunner Eric Kripke cast him in the series, what he knew about his character arc when he signed on, sharing some memorable scenes with Homelander (Antony Starr) in the second season, how the series deals with many real world …
The new Far Cry 6 trailer looks, in a word, sumptuous. Ubisoft's acclaimed FPS franchise has been diving further and further into morally complicated, story-driven space, much to its benefit. But this new trailer takes things up a notch, promising a new setting, a sociopolitically muckraking narrative, and a fearfully committed performance from Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad, The Mandalorian) as the dictator father to game protagonist Anthony Gonzalez (Coco). Now, thanks to an interview with Variety, we know much more about Esposito's villainous character, and much more about the setting you'll play the game in. "El …
Ubisoft's Far Cry 6 finally has a chilling first trailer and official release date. The trailer and release date were revealed during the UbiForward event on Sunday, along with trailers and updates for fellow UbiSoft titles including Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Watch Dogs Legion, and Hyperscape. But we're not here to talk about those others games; all we can think about is Far Cry 6. As the title notes, Far Cry 6 is the sixth installment in the ongoing Far Cry franchise, which began in 2004. While Far Cry and Far Cry 2 were set in the same …
Far Cry 6 might not be that far away at all. A recent PlayStation Store leak [h/t Polygon] seems to confirm that the highly-anticipated first-person shooter will arrive on February 18, 2021 for PlayStation 4 (although the release does mention an eventual PS5 release). The leak came along with a synopsis, which drops the player in a tropical paradise called Yara, overseen by a brutal dictator. Welcome to Yara, a tropical paradise frozen in time. As the dictator of Yara, Anton Castillo is intent on restoring his nation back to its former glory by any means, with …
One of my favorite shows of 2019 was Amazon’s The Boys. Based on the comic book series by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, the series takes place in a world just like ours except superheroes are real. However, while TV shows and movies portray superheroes as either good or bad, in the world of The Boys, most of them are tragically flawed and often anything but heroic. Trust me, you have never seen a show like The Boys and you’ll be constantly picking your jaw off the floor while watching the eight-episode first season. The series' excellent …
Amazon's The Boys, the only superhero show on TV where the "c-word" most definitely doesn't stand for "cape", is flying back into our lives for season 2 on Friday, September 4. If you can't wait that long for new Boys in your life, showrunner Eric Kripke and the cast revealed the season's opening minutes during a live streaming event hosted by season 2 guest star Patton Oswalt. The good news is the show looks just as loveably obscene as ever, but the even better news is Giancarlo Esposito is here now, acting like a dang …
Remember The Mandalorian? It was that Disney+ launch title that gave us Pedro Pascal as the title character (while depriving us of his face) and brought Baby Yoda into the zeitgeist. However, the original Star Wars series also folded in plenty of lore from the fictional universe. One of the most compelling tie-ins came at the very end of the first season as newcomer Giancarlo Esposito, playing Imperial antagonist Moff Gideon, cut his way free from a downed TIE Fighter with the legendary darksaber. And that's where the streaming series left us. We do know that Esposito will …
Giancarlo Esposito knows exactly why Moff Gideon is so anxious to get his hands on Baby Yoda in the first two seasons of The Mandalorian.
Giancarlo Esposito is set for a treacherously good 2020 - he'll be playing major villains in The Mandalorian, Better Call Saul and The Boys.
