A cinematic obsessive with the filmic palate of a starving raccoon, Rob London will watch pretty much anything once. With a mind like a steel trap, he's an endless fount of movie and TV trivia, borne from a misspent youth of watching monster movies on TV, perusing the sun-faded goods at the local video rental shop, and staining his fingers with ink from the Video Movie Guide. Areas of interest include science fiction, film noir, horror flicks, '70s disaster pictures, Bond movies, '90s action, giant robots, dinosaurs, super heroes, and the exuberantly schlocky output of Cannon Films. He also enjoys both Star Trek and Star Wars when they're good, and maybe even more when they're bad. As a Canadian, he also has a vested interest in Canadian movies and TV shows, especially the cheesier ones dubbed "Canuxploitation."

An expert on Marvel Comics, he has also written for the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, and is a member of the Marvel Research Team. He can frequently be found pontificating on comic-book continuity or bemoaning the misfortunes of the Toronto Maple Leafs on his Twitter account.

Xochitl Gomez may have escaped the Multiverse of Madness, but now she's caught up in a suburban nightmare in the new horror film Hive. Collider is proud to exclusively debut the new trailer for the upcoming film, which will premiere exclusively on Tubi. It will be available to watch on the free, ad-supported streamer on Friday, April 17.

In the trailer, Gomez is Sasha, a teenager who's been hired to look after the daughter of an affluent couple. However, she soon learns to her dismay that her new charge has a nasty sense of humor and a fondness for cruel pranks that prey on her anxieties. It gets worse, however, because this isn't just one bad seed. It seems that something profoundly evil has taken control of every kid in the neighborhood, and they're planning to turn the local playground into a slayground. Can she save the children from whatever's possessing them...and can she save herself from them? You'll have to tune into Tubi next month to find out.

Because today is Friday the 13th, let's march our way through the iconic slasher franchise. Ch-ch-ch-ch. Ha-ha-ha-ha.

Who Are the Creatives Behind 'Hive'?

Gomez made her screen debut in Raven's Home and broke out in the MCU blockbuster Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness as the young superheroine America Chavez; she may reprise the role in future MCU projects. She competed on and won the 32nd season of Dancing With the Stars, and is slated to lend her voice to an animated adaptation of The Cat in the Hat. She will star alongside Jessica Biel in the science fiction thriller Ursa Major, and with Xolo Maridueña in the romance Dog Years. It also stars Aaron Dominguez, who played Oscar Torres on the first season of Hulu's Only Murders in the Building. He recently guested on the TV series Gossip Girl and Pulse, and starred in the remake of the 1980s horror classic Witchboard. The film is written and directed by Felipe Vargas; it is his second feature, after the horror film, Rosario.

Hive began as a short film, which was also written and directed by Vargas, and starred Gomez. Like its full-length adaptation, the short takes place in real time.

Hive will be released exclusively on Tubi on Friday, April 17. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
