Margot Robbie and Samara Weaving were practically twins on the red carpet and the internet is seeing double.
Bill S. Preston (Alex Winter) and Ted “Theodore” Logan (Keanu Reeves) are back in Bill & Ted Face the Music as the San Dimas, California duo still trying to fulfill their destiny to save the universe with their music. It's been nearly 20 years since we last saw these best friends, and now, they're middle-aged dads living with their historical babe wives (Erinn Hayes and Jayma Mays) and equally music-obsessed kids, Billie (Brigette Lundy-Paine) and Thea (Samara Weaving). Bill and Ted still haven’t written the song that’s meant to ensure the survival of …
Casting for Scream 5 is heating up on the heels of the news that the directing team of Radio Silence, responsible for last year’s tremendously fun horror-thriller Ready or Not, is taking the helm of the new movie. But one name nearly made the cut for Scream 5 new additions, and it’s a name you’ll surely recognize. Samara Weaving broke out in a big way with her leading turn in Ready or Not as a bride being hunted by her new husband’s family, and plays a key role in the upcoming sequel Bill & Ted …
From Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, the Netflix seven-episode limited series Hollywood follows a group of aspiring actors and filmmakers as they try to make their dreams come true in the post-World War II era. While exposing the power dynamics and unfair biases that were prevalent, it also explores what things might have looked like if those Hollywood norms had been torn down. During this 1-on-1 phone interview with Collider, Aussie actress Samara Weaving, who plays aspiring and ambitious actress Claire Wood, talked about the experience of working on a Ryan Murphy set, what she found …
What would have happened if inclusion and representation were taken more seriously in the Golden Age of Hollywood? While we will never actually know, Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan attempt to answer the question in their Netflix limited series, Hollywood, which is like a What If…? comic book about Hollywood in the 1940s. The series takes real people like Rock Hudson, Anna May Wong, and Vivien Leigh and combines them with fictionalized aspiring actors and filmmakers who are willing to do whatever it takes to make Hollywood look at every person as equal, no matter their race or sexual orientation. …
Samara Weaving is one of those up-and-coming performers you just know is going to breakout big time one day. The actress has been stealing scenes in genre films for the last few years, from The Babysitter to Mayhem, and last year's breakout Ready or Not. She's poised for her highest profile gig yet as Bill's daughter in the upcoming Bill and Ted Face the Music, but first, she's getting tangled up in a Hitchockian thriller in Lionsgate's Last Moment of Clarity. Zach Avery stars as Sam, a man who thinks he found his …

Guns Akimbo, an early front-runner for the Greatest Motion Picture Ever Created Oscar, is due in select theaters next Friday, and Saban Films is getting an early start on celebrating their inevitable awards season sweep with a new clip. The movie stars Daniel Radcliffe as Miles, a simpering video game developer thoroughly allergic to conflict, who suddenly finds himself thrown into the middle of an illegal livestream death-match with pistols bolted to each of his hands. He’s getting hunted down by the match’s top killer, Nix (Samara Weaving), a tatted-up sociopath armed with a cartoonish …
Madman Films has released the first trailer for Guns Akimbo, the genuinely insane-looking action-comedy in which Daniel Radcliffe gets chased around an illegal deathmatch by a gothed-out Samara Weaving. Oh, and Daniel Radcliffe has guns bolted to his hands and is not wearing pants for a good portion of the footage. There is no discernible difference between doing cocaine and watching this trailer but I can guarantee the trailer is cheaper. Here are the actual plot details of Guns Akimbo, for the uninitiated: Radcliffe stars as Miles, an extremely online game developer who runs afoul of the …
No, this isn’t an update of the eternally underrated Brian de Palma/Nicolas Cage 1998 boxing fever dream Snake Eyes. The upcoming Snake Eyes is a darker spinoff of the G.I. Joe universe starring Crazy Rich Asians’ Henry Golding as the title role, a mysterious operative who wears a mask, rocks a sword AND an uzi, and terminates his targets with extreme prejudice. In the previous two G.I. Joe films, Snake Eyes was played by Darth Maul himself, Ray Park. Now, in this origin story, Golding will don the mask alongside Samara Weaving, who recently crushed in …
Ready or Not star Samara Weaving signs on to play Scarlett in Paramount's G.I. Joe spinoff movie Snake Eyes, ahead of filming starting this week.
If you’re looking for vibrant, high-energy midnight material, director Jason Lei Howden has you covered. He first caught my eye with his directorial debut Deathgasm which premiered at SXSW back in 2015 and still to this day, it's one of my favorite film festival midnight premiere experiences. A four and a half year gap between films is longer than I would have liked but perhaps Guns Akimbo needed it. It’s super ambitious, irresistibly flashy and well worth the wait. The movie stars Daniel Radcliffe as Miles, a video game developer who takes great pride in “trolling …
One evening I was watching Ash vs. Evil Dead on Starz and the show introduced a new character late in the first season; a hiker named Heather. She seemed sweet and grounded enough, and actually managed to make an impression amidst a very colorful and lovable cast of established characters. Then - spoiler - Heather gets what’s coming to her in this Deadite-infested world, a deliciously over-the-top and wicked demise. That’s the scene that officially seared actor Samara Weaving into my brain forever. After that, Weaving added one impressive credit to her name after the next. She …
