By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com I have had a lot of conversations with actors about why they do what they do. Why they choose the projects they choose. What draws them to certain characters over others. But sitting down with Jessica Rothe and Kiana Madeira ahead of the October 2nd release of Beware Boiuna, Jessica said something about the horror genre that stopped me mid conversation and made me think about it differently than I ever had before. She said horror, with the rig

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com It started as a simple audience question at Colorado Springs Comic Con. Ten episodes or the traditional twenty-something episode format? Which do you prefer? What followed was one of the most genuinely interesting conversations I had all weekend. Will Friedle and Rider Strong, two people who spent years living inside one of the most beloved family sitcoms ever made, sat down and talked honestly about what has been lost in the evolution of tele

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com Foxy Brown may be getting ready to handle some unfinished business.

I had the chance to sit down with Tom Brittney, Arsima Thomas and Harriet Slater from the cast and what they told us about making this film should tell you everything you need to know about how seriously this team takes putting you through it. We sat down at Boundless Adventures in Purchase NY, w

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com There is a moment in every great series where you realize the show is doing something bigger than its premise. Fight Land on Starz is that kind of show. And sitting down with Anita Joy Uwajeh and Charles Babalola, who play CeeCee and Zeek in the series, made it abundantly clear that what 50 Cent and this creative team have built in London is something television has genuinely never seen before. A Black British family of status. Of wealth. Of p

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com If you grew up watching A Different World then you already know what that theme song means. It was not just music. It was a feeling. A signal that something special was about to happen on your screen. And now Netflix has made a decision that is going to send an entire generation straight back to their childhood in the best possible way. Brandy Norwood is singing the theme song for the A Different World revival. And it drops September 24th. Tak

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com If you think Fight Land is just another boxing show you are already wrong. And Howard Charles, who carries the emotional weight of this entire series on his shoulders as Duke, made sure we understood exactly what we were walking into before we even finished our first question. This is a 50 Cent production. That alone should tell you something. But Fight Land goes deeper than the surface level of what the trailer is selling you and the conversa

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com The first trailer for I Play Rocky has officially arrived, and before we even get into the incredible true story behind the film, we need to talk about Anthony Ippolito. Because the resemblance is absolutely unreal. Ippolito steps into the role of a young Sylvester Stallone in the upcoming Amazon MGM Studios film, and there are moments throughout the first trailer where you may genuinely have to look twice. From Stallone's signature facial exp

Because in 2026 they are showing up with one of the most eclectic and genuinely exciting guest lineups at the entire convention.

Z2 will be set up at Booth 1529 all week wi

By Klep Napier | Wearecritix.com Sixty years. Six decades of boldly going where no one has gone before. And if Paramount+ and CBS Studios have anything to say about it, San Diego Comic-Con 2026 is going to feel like the biggest Star Trek birthday party the franchise has ever thrown. Between a stacked Hall H panel, a free fan screening, multiple off-site activations and the U.S.S. Enterprise literally taking over the official SDCC badges this year, Star Trek is not just showin

Here is the complete breakdown of everything happening a

And if you are going to be in San Diego this summer, Pan’s Labyrinth is about to remind you exactly why it still hits as hard today as it did in 2006. The 20th anniversary celebration is coming to Comic-Con International San Diego 2026 in a big way. We are talking a Fetch Quest, a H
