Resident Evil

Deadline reports Paul Walter Hauser has joined the cast of Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil in a currently undisclosed role (start your Barry Burton speculation now).


The DCU

Dave Bautista confirmed he’s still eager to join James Gunn’s DCU in a new interview with Screen Rant.

You know, I check back with them all the time to see, because I want to be in that world. And I don’t want to say I’m disappointed, but I was really just, you know, I was hoping a year or so ago that I would’ve gotten the call from James saying, “Hey man, we got something for you.”

But I just keep hearing kind of through the pipeline that they’re thinking about me for something, but I don’t know what it is. And I haven’t heard directly from either James or Peter. But I really want to be in that room, you know, I was hoping to go over there and do something with them, but I haven’t heard anything. And I’m not getting younger.

Elsewhere, Vincent D’Onofrio admitted he likes the idea of playing Swamp Thing on Twitter.

Yes he should

Pig Hill

Bloody-Disgusting and Cineverse have acquired the U.S. distribution rights to Pig Hill, the latest film from Willy’s Wonderland director, Kevin Lewis. The story follows Carrie (Rainey Qualley), “a girl haunted by the mysterious disappearances of women in her small town [who] becomes embroiled in a dark tale of family betrayal and horror. As Carrie and her brother (Shiloh Fernandez) investigate the folklore surrounding the so-called ‘pig people,’ she uncovers a terrifying truth about their family. As she fights for survival in a twisted game of cat and mouse, Carrie and her friend Andy (Shane West) realize that the legends of Pig Hill are rooted in a gruesome reality, ultimately leading to a violent confrontation that reveals the depths of madness and the lengths Carrie will go to reclaim her life.”

Gen V

Speaking with TV Line, Michele Fazekas discussed addressing the death of actor Chance Perdomo in the second season of Gen V.

We wanted to honor him, and in order to honor the person that Chance was, we have to treat this like what it is, which is grieving someone who is gone. But knowing that you’re doing a television show about superheroes at college, how do you fit that very real, very serious emotion into the world of this show? The answer is that you just fit it into the world of the show, like people fit grief into their lives. Sometimes people are inappropriate, sometimes people are cracking jokes and sometimes people are angry.
