Jon Bernthal Loved That His Walking Dead Character Was Doomed
It’s been five years since actor Jon Bernthal walked away from the AMC show The Walking Dead, or rather since his character Shane Walsh met an untimely fate in the penultimate episode of Season 2.
Since then, Bernthal has remained fairly active, appearing in last year’s The Accountant opposite Ben Affleck and on the 2013 TV series Mob City, and he had two movies at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival: the 13th Century religious epic Pilgrimage and the crime-drama Sweet Virginia.
American Gods Explores Faith in the Age of iPhones
American Gods is a story that is massive in scope as it explores a war brewing between old gods and new for control of America, but it tells that story through a centralized focus: the journey of a recently released ex-con named Shadow Moon with a capricious, mysterious man named Mr. Wednesday.
The relationship between Shadow and Wednesday is at the core of Bryan Fuller and Michael Green's adaptation of Neil Gaiman's novel, which means there needed to be great chemistry between the two actors who play them. Fortunately sparks fly between Ricky Whittle and Ian McShane from the first moment they share screen time together in American Gods' pilot, and their dynamic is much of what makes the series so interesting. Make sure to read our full spoiler-free review of the series premiere.
Nintendo Not Hosting ‘Large-Scale’ E3 Press Conference
Nintendo has confirmed it will once again forgo a traditional press conference at E3 2017.
The company shared the news at the end of its latest financial results briefing. "Again this year, we will not be hosting a large-scale press conference for institutional investors, analysts and the media," Nintendo said of its E3 plans.
With regard to what Nintendo has planned for this year's expo, the company didn't specify, only saying, "Nintendo of America will present further information on our plans at a later date." So far, we know that both Splatoon 2 and Super Mario Odyssey will appear at E3 2017.
Every Emma Watson Movie Since Harry Potter
Actress Emma Watson is having a big year. Hot on the heels of Disney's massively successful Beauty and the Beast remake, Watson's next starring role comes in The Circle. This time she plays a wide-eyed new recruit at a social media empire who discovers that her boss (Tom Hanks) may be hiding a few dark secrets.
Watson's success is all the more notable considering how rarely child stars are able to keep their careers going into adulthood. But Watson has managed to escape the shadow of Hermione Granger and the Harry Potter franchise. Join us as we beak down her key film roles in the years since Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
While Watson has tended to focus more on smaller indie projects and dramatic roles, the fact that Beauty and the Beast just became the first movie of 2017 to cross the $1 billion mark shows that she hasn't lost that Harry Potter box office appeal.
