Netflix has released a new trailer for Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead, which sees Dave Bautista and his band of mercenaries come up against a zombie tiger.
The golfing great is the subject of a new in-depth sports documentary.
Fallen legends, faded friendships, and a heartwarming homecoming; The Paper Tigers hits a lot of the familiar touchstones for Kung Fu cinema while making them feel fresh, funny, and full of heart. The new underdog martial arts comedy from debut feature filmmaker Quoc Bao Tran follows three former friends who used to be kings of their local Kung Fu scene, known as the unbeatable “Paper Tigers”, and find their way back to each other after the death of their former master. Fueled by a tremendous trio of leads, Tran’s light touch, and tightly choreographed fight scenes, The Paper Tigers …
Animal Planet has released a trailer for its upcoming Tiger King documentary, which was filmed just four months before Joe Exotic's arrest.
I love The Last Dance. The 10-part ESPN/Netflix series dove into the bonkers life and unimpeachable basketball career of one Mr. Michael Jordan, culminating with his last championship run with the Chicago Bulls. It was gripping, exacting, emotion-driven, and nostalgia-baiting television I slurped down with unbridled glee. Clearly, the rest of television has noticed. Two more sports docuseries have been announced: One about Tiger Woods, and one about the 1986 New York Mets.

After becoming a festival darling and Shudder streaming favorite with the knockout fantasy-horror Tigers Are Not Afraid, filmmaker Issa Lopez is heading to Blumhouse for a new supernatural-tinged tale of societal woes -- this time, mass hysteria! Lopez is set to write and direct Our Lady of Tears, a film adaptation of Daniel Hernandez's article, “The Haunting of Girlstown,” which was published by Epic Magazine and Vox. Per the press release, the film focuses on "a mass hysteria epidemic with supernatural roots, that in 2007 spread through Villa de las Niñas, an all girls, Catholic boarding school …
When Tiger King started becoming the buzzworthy thing everyone was talking about, some of you already knew who Joe Exotic was without having witnessed the Netflix docuseries for yourself. That was, of course, because Joe Exotic’s misguided run for President of the United States was covered in hilarious fashion on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, which itself is featured in Netflix’s Tiger King as Exotic only becomes more enamored of himself. So when Seth Meyers had John Oliver as a guest on Monday’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, he asked the HBO host how …
The Tiger King franchise will continue to roar for Netflix, which has set Joel McHale to host a cleverly-titled aftershow titled Tiger King and I that will be released on April 12, the streamer announced Thursday. It will feature brand new interviews with John Reinke, Joshua Dial, John Finlay, Kelci 'Saff' Saffery, Erik Cowie, Rick Kirkham, and Jeff and Lauren Lowe. The aftershow will serve as the eighth installment in the series that was alluded to by Jeff Lowe on Cameo over the weekend. Tiger King and I will no doubt explore what has happened to these people's …
There's no denying it. Tiger King, the latest in Netflix's many true crime documentary series, is a bonafide sensation. A huge hit for the streaming service, an easily memeable world, and characters like Joe Exotic and Carole Baskin immediately grabbing our attention (despite the show's, you know, problematic lightening/psuedo-glorification of animal and domestic abuse). It makes sense that other networks would want a piece of this white trash pie -- and now (via the Hollywood Reporter), we're seeing such television bandwagoning take place. Fox and TMZ, those bastions of journalism, are teaming up to produce …
Tiger King, Netflix’s outrageous documentary series about warring exotic animal keepers in rural America, was watched by over 34 million viewers in its first 10 days on the streaming platform. As reported by Variety, the numbers come courtesy of Nielsen estimates for March 20-29, which tallied 34..3 unique viewers for the docuseries. That puts it right alongside Seasons 2 and 3 of Stranger Things, which drew 31.2 million and 36.3 million viewers respectively in the same time frame. All of those numbers add up to mean that Tiger King is one of Netflix’s most …
Newly launched streaming service Quibi and perennial documentary powerhouse BBC Natural History Unit have teamed up to deliver Fierce Queens, a new nature docu-series centered on the badass leading ladies of the animal kingdom. Fierce Queen herself Reese Witherspoon appears in and narrates these "quick bites" exploring incredible stories of matriarchs, sisterhood, and female-first social order. At only about eight minutes long an episode, you'll be entertained, occasionally awed, and even educated along the way thanks to the incredible stories of Mother Nature on display. Three episodes are already available to stream on this launch day. Each …
Is the world really ready for a new episode of Netflix successful docuseries Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness? Whether or not we're emotionally or spiritually ready, it's possible a new episode may be coming our way in the near future — if we're to believe a recent tease from series subject Jeff Lowe. Just a few weeks after Tiger King's March 22 debut on Netflix and subsequent ascent into one of the most talked-about releases of 2020, Lowe is teasing even more new footage is coming soon. Lowe hinted at the possibility of a new …
There's a place and a purpose for investigative TV series and documentary films. The Central Park Five and When They See Us did a lot to address problems in the criminal defense system; Making a Murderer drew attention to the cases of Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey; and The Jinx led to the arrest of Robert Durst on first-degree murder charges. That's all well and good for humans, but when it comes to animal welfare, the plot thickens. The 2009 documentary The Cove won an Oscar for its analysis and investigation of dolphin-hunting in Japan, though …
When it comes time for the inevitable Joe Exotic biopic, here are seven actors who could do wonders in this strange real-life role.
Over the last week, as America has discovered Joe Exotic and his new Netflix docuseries Tiger King, I've seen some inspired casting choices for the inevitable movie based on the show... and I've seen some terrible ones. The problem with the fantasy casts that I've seen is that none of them feel particularly cohesive. Writers just choose actors who look like the wacky people in Tiger King, without any regard to whether those actors would work well together, or if people would even pay to see that movie. Now, if Netflix is as smart as I think …
I don't know what we did to deserve this good thing, but I'm glad we as a society have it to treasure forever. On Monday, Rainn Wilson gifted us with a new Instagram post which reimagines his iconic character from The Office, Dwight Schrute, as Joe Exotic, one of the many subjects in the runaway hit Netflix documentary Tiger King. Blessing everyone's IG feeds on Monday afternoon was a glorious photo made real by Wilson. The photo features Dwight's very serious face, complete with an almost dead-eyed stare into camera, superimposed on the body of …
According to Netflix’s own rankings of its most popular movies and TV shows, the U.S. is completely obsessed with the shenanigans of Joe Exotic in the insane documentary series Tiger King. The seven-episode docuseries chronicles the stranger-than-fiction story of Joe Exotic, a flamboyant and tremendously confident owner of a big cat zoo in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma. Much like a Stefon sketch, this show has everything: a dangerous rivalry with a fellow big cat owner, a murder-for-hire plot, a run for U.S. president (seriously), and more sketchy characters than you can …
