Though his presence loomed large over Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Luke Skywalker wasn't around much. That will change in Episode VIII, and here's what we think he'll be up to.

Any Steven Spielberg movie is a big deal, and every movie based on a best-seller with a rabid fanbase is a big deal. And it just so happens, the director's next movie is based a hugely popular novel. Here's everything we know about Ready Player One so far.

Even though it made a ton of money at the box office, many look at Spectre as one of the lesser James Bond movies in recent memory. And to drive that point home, this video rips it to shreds.

Though its release is only a few months away, Star Trek Beyond is back for some reshoots. Director Justin Lin just teased the appearance of a couple of badass new aliens for the crew of the Enterprise to deal with.

Production on Maze Runner: The Death Cure was put on indefinite hold when star Dylan O'Brien was injured in an on-set accident, but now we know when he will return and filming will get underway once again.

Perhaps more important than the debate about who shot first is the number of times that Han Solo has shot last in the Star Wars saga. And it turns out he has racked up quite the body count.

The Joker has a long, storied history both in DC comic books and in movies and television, and Jared Leto, who plays the latest version of the Clown Prince of Crime, compares him to another venerable literary character: Hamlet.

If you've seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and judging by the box office haul, most of you have, you know that Kylo Ren is one angry young man. This new video seeks to explore the underlying reasons for his rage.

As a franchise, Star Wars is prone to casting relatively unknown actors in key roles. When you watch Daisy Ridley's intense audition tape, it's easy to see why they picked her to lead The Force Awakens.

We still don't know much about James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but if a new rumor making the rounds is to be believed, we may have just learned the identity of three new characters.

It's taken decades, but Blade Runner 2 has finally found the momentum that may carry it to movie theaters. It just added another key piece as Robin Wright took one of three new key female roles in the sci-fi sequel.

Kevin Smith was initially critical of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and what he called a lack of heart. On his second viewing, however, he found much more to enjoy.

Though he has become a big star thanks to the success of The Big Bang Theory, Jim Parsons has largely steered clear of the silver screen, but that's about to change in a big way.

James Gunn is fond of using social media to share bits and pieces from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 with fans, and he just dropped an image that hints at the identity of Star-Lord's father. We're just not sure what it is.

Just in case you weren't sure how excited people were for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it made an insane amount of money during its first five days. Just a crazy amount.

It's not uncommon for actors to push themselves and try new and different roles. Cate Blanchett certainly is doing something unexpected in Thor: Ragnarok, but she has an awesome reason.

We've already seen quite a bit from Captain America: Civil War, but now we know when we'll get our next big blast of footage from Marvel's latest superhero team up.

Part of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was laying the groundwork for the Justice League movies and introducing new characters. One were beyond stoked to see more of is Aquaman, and here's why.

It hasn't been an easy road for Fox's superhero adventure Gambit, and now it looks like Ragin' Cajun's solo film has been delayed even further. Here's when it will finally get rolling.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice may have just had an epic opening weekend at the box office, but there's one factor that could indicate things won't be all sunshine and roses on the road ahead.
