The Queen's Gambit's Anya Taylor-Joy reveals if she's met Charlize Theron in the wake of playing Furiosa in the prequel to the Mad Max franchise.
Channing Tatum is set to star in Red Shirt, based on a pitch by X-Men writer, producer, and director Simon Kindberg.
Gambit director Reid Carolin has revealed that Channing Tatum's solo X-Men movie would have been like 'mutant Goodfellas in New Orleans' but was canceled just months before filming.
Channing Tatum says he still struggles with the cancellation of his X-Men Gambit project, saying he was "traumatized" when the project was put to bed.
Anya Taylor-Joy is getting ready to prove once again that she is the new horror queen.
Full disclosure: I did not love The Queen's Gambit, but I completely see the appeal. The Netflix miniseries stars Anya Taylor-Joy as a hard-working, obsessive, haunted-by-her-demons chess prodigy who wipes the floor with all kinds of older male chess grandmasters while trying her best to ignore her complicated, burgeoning humanity in order to keep crushing the pawns in her path. If you were compelled by The Queen's Gambit from beginning to end, and are now going through withdrawal, in need of something to scratch a similar itch, I've got you. Now that …
With writer-director Scott Frank’s The Queen’s Gambit now streaming on Netflix, I recently got to speak with Moses Ingram about making the fantastic limited series. If you haven’t seen the trailers, The Queen’s Gambit is based on the novel by Watler Tevis and follows Beth Harmon (Anya Taylor-Joy), who was abandoned to a Kentucky orphanage in the late 1950s. While there, she discovers an extraordinary talent for the game of chess, but also becomes addicted to the tranquilizers provided by the state as a sedative for the children.

When you get particularly good at chess, so good that you're able to compete at the level of the various emotionally stunted grandmasters in Netflix's The Queen's Gambit, the chess moves you make can start to feel second-nature, inherent, fundamental, even rote. The moment one player moves their white pawn (white always goes first), the next player simply files through their Rolodex of follow-up moves at a split-second pace, causing a similar reaction, and on and on until someone's knocking over their king in resignation. The trick to win, then, is to utilize …
I'm just not sure there's ever been a television story more custom-tailored for me than "a chess prodigy is so good at chess that she loses her freaking mind and it's styled like a surreal prestige thriller". Sound good to you, too? Good. Then feast your eyes on the official trailer for Netflix's limited series The Queen's Gambit. [caption id="attachment_923993" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via Netflix[/caption] Based on the novel by Walter Tevis (whose The Hustler series of books have also yielded sharp screen works on gifts versus obsessions), Anya Taylor-…

Everything about this brief 30-second preview has me constantly refreshing the streaming service to see if I can add it to my queue yet. Based on the novel by Watler Tevis, the series follows Beth Harmon (Taylor-Joy), who was abandoned at a young age and grew up in a Kentucky orphanage. There, she discovers she has an incredible …
Hey, remember when dancing heartthrob Channing Tatum was going to play Gambit in a solo X-Men spinoff film? I’d totally forgotten about it, too! Obviously, the film is no longer going to happen (it was originally announced way back in 2014), but Dark Phoenix director Simon Kinberg recently revealed some interesting information about what the movie might have been like. Specifically, fan-favorite villain Mister Sinister was going to appear. During a special watch-along event of X-Men: Days of Future Past with IGN, Kinberg let it slip that the end credits sequence from X-Men: Apocalypse …
After getting dealt a bad hand with Gambit, Channing Tatum is working on something quite different from Marvel's mutants for his new project.
Channing Tatum is reportedly producing a superhero show/film, and it's not one you'll expect.
