Strange Darling is a horror thriller film written and directed by Jt Mollner. The 2023 film is set in rural Oregon, and it follows a woman who discovers that the man she just had a one-night stand with is a serial killer, and now she must run to survive as the man chases her.

In advance of the series’ upcoming Season 3 premiere, AMC Networks announced today that it has renewed the critically acclaimed and popular noir drama Dark Winds for a fourth season. The expanded, eight-episode, third season premieres March 9 on AMC and AMC+.

Season 4 of Dark Winds, which will begin filming in Santa Fe, New Mexico in March, will also consist of eight, hour-long episodes. The new season will also see the directorial debut of series’ star and executive producer, Zahn McClarnon, and will debut exclusively on AMC and AMC+ in 2026.

“When we greenlit the first season of Dark Winds, we saw the potential for an authentic and long-running franchise that could live alongside the worlds we were building around The Walking Dead and Anne Rice,” said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks.

“That is exactly what this cast and creative team delivered, and the fans have responded.

AMC has brightened Dark Winds fans’ day by announcing the critically acclaimed drama has been renewed for season four. The early renewal order comes just weeks before the premiere of season three.

The noir drama debuted in June 2022, followed by season two in July 2023. Seasons one and two each had six episodes. Season three, premiering on March 9, 2025, will have eight, as will season four.

“When we greenlit the first season of Dark Winds, we saw the potential for an authentic and long-running franchise that could live alongside the worlds we were building around The Walking Dead and Anne Rice,” stated Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. “That is exactly what this cast and creative team delivered, and the fans have responded.

There will be more Dark Winds on AMC.

The network has renewed the thriller for a fourth season. The news comes ahead of the premiere of its third season on March 9.

Season 4 of the series, which stars Zahn McClarnon, will begin filming in Santa Fe, Nm, in March and will air in 2026.

Much like Season 3, it will consist of eight episodes. Seasons 1 and 2 had six episodes each.

The news is not a huge surprise given the boost that Dark Winds seems to have gotten from its airing on Netflix. The first two seasons of the show are currently on the streamer and after they dropped in August, they remained in Netflix’s top 10 for over three weeks. Dark Winds also aired on Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max as part of a two-month pop-up in 2023.

Season four will also feature the directorial debut of star and exec producer McClarnon.

AMC Networks’ acclaimed period drama Dark Winds has been renewed for a fourth season, nearly two weeks ahead of its Season 3 premiere on Sunday, March 9 (on AMC and AMC+).

The eight-episode Season 4 — which is set to begin filming this March in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with an eye on a 2026 release — will mark the directorial debut of series star and executive producer Zahn McClarnon.

Like the coming third installment, season four of Dark Winds will run for eight episodes, up from six apiece for the first two seasons. Production is slated to begin in March, with star and executive producer Zahn McClarnon making his directing debut on one of the episodes.

Navajo police lieutenant Joe Leaphorn, played by Zahn McClarnon, is haunted by a bogeyman from his childhood in the third season teaser trailer for AMC’s Dark Winds, which dropped on Friday.

Leaphorn appears badgered by his demons after leaving B.J. Vines (John Diehl) in the desert to freeze to death during the second season of the noir thriller. “When I was a boy, when I went to school, we were taught that the monsters walked the Earth. When you kill a man, he’s bound to you. I’ve accepted it. And I am prepared to go on living with it, every day,” Leaphorn reveals in the third season trailer.

That’s followed by Tribal Police officer Jimmy Chee (Kiowa Gordon) appearing to try, without success, to get a severely wounded Leaphorn on the phone as his partner confronts a monster trying to stalk and kill him.

In the early days, before movies became talkies, it was easy to show foreign films in the USA. Just insert new title cards in English, and film fans in St. Louis could watch and understand the latest offering from France or Germany. But then sound came and changed everything.

Of course, distributors in the United States could add subtitles or dub in new voices, but if they really wanted to sell the movie to an American audience, they could also just go ahead and make a new, English-language version.

Whether it is repurposing the Japanese classic Rashomon as The Outrage or taking Spain’s Abre los ojos and turning it into Vanilla Sky, producers in the USA are constantly scouring the globe for some hot property to acquire, rewrite, recast, and in so doing, capture a whole new audience.

People really can't seem to get enough of Taylor Sheridan. The multi-hyphenate writer-actor-director-producer is the creator of the "Yellowstone" television franchise, which mostly follow the Dutton family of ranchers over multiple generations, with a few interesting detours. While he had worked as an actor for years (even starring in an episode of "Star Trek: Enterprise") and even earned an Academy Award nomination for his screenplay for the excellent 2016 neo-Western "Hell or High Water," "Yellowstone" is what made Sheridan a household name. He's since gone on to create the hit series "Tulsa King," starring Sylvester Stallone as a mafia capo. Basically everything the man touches is streaming gold, and now another of his works is finding new eyes on home video. 

Just before "Hell or High Water" showed everyone just how good Chris Pine and Ben Foster were at delivering hard-boiled western dialogue, Sheridan showed everyone just what he could do...

Xolo Maridueña is set to reprise his Blue Beetle role in an animated series from DC Studios.

The Cobra Kai actor recently teased what it means to continue telling the story of Jaime Reyes, the DC Comics superhero he played in the 2023 film.

“There’s only one Blue Beetle,” Maridueña said in an interview with Hablemos de Cine about voicing the Latino superhero in the upcoming animated series.

He continued, “I’m so excited to get to continue the story of Jaime is an honor and I just can’t wait to see where the heck he goes. It’s still so early but I just know it’s about to be the next craziest anime.”

Earlier this year, Deadline broke the news that Warner Bros. Animation and DC Studios were working on an animated series based on Blue Beetle. Miguel Paga would serve as director and showrunner, and Cristian Martinez would serve as writer.

Billy Burke, best known for his appearance in the “Twilight” series of movies, is set to play the lead in upcoming horror thriller “Outbreak.”

The zombie genre film, directed by Jeff Wolfe who co-wrote the screenplay with Lance Ochsner, has now been acquired by Premiere Entertainment Group (Peg), a Los Angeles-based production, financing, and sales company, which picked up international rights.

“Outbreak” follows a state park ranger (Burke) in search of his missing teenage son who is confronted with zombie-like people carrying an infectious disease following a virus outbreak. Alyshia Ochse, Taylor Handley, Raoul Max Trujillo, Jessica Frances Dukes, Dani Oliveros, and Kylr Coffman round out the key cast.

WolfePride Productions’ Jennifer Wolfe and Jeff Wolfe produced the film with Kevin Matossian for SilverCrest Entertainment.

Premiere Entertainment has launched talks with international buyers on “Outbreak” at the American Film Market. Premiere CEO Elias Axume and acquisitions manager Lizzy Gonzalez negotiated the deal with the producers.

AMC Networks has revealed a teaser trailer and first-look images from the highly-anticipated upcoming season of its hit noir drama, Dark Winds, which will return with all new episodes exclusively on AMC and AMC+ on Sunday, March 9 at 9pm Et/Pt.

AMC’s released an early teaser for season three of the critically acclaimed drama Dark Winds, along with the first three photos from the upcoming season. “We all have a line that runs down the middle of our heart,” says Leaphorn in the short promo video. “That line separates monsters from men, and I’m afraid I have crossed that line.”

The network’s first season three video confirms a Sunday, March 9, 2025 at 9pm Et/Pt premiere date.

Zahn McClarnon (The Son) and Kiowa Gordon return to lead the cast as Lt. Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee.

Xolo Mariduea in Blue Beetle is one of the best superhero castings in recent memory. His performance has the right balance of humor and heart for the fledging hero Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle, and Mariduea is perhaps the film's biggest asset. Though Blue Beetle ultimately underperformed at the box office, it fared more favorably with critics and fans, earning a 77% critic score and a 91% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie is a fun ride that does its source material justice, pun unintended.

Blue Beetle follows Jaime after he accidentally bonds with an alien scarab that gives him superpowers. Directed by Angel Manuel Soto, it also stars George Lopez, Becky G, Bruna Marquezine, Damin Alczar, Adriana Barraz, Harvey Guilln, Raoul Max Trujillo, and Susan Sarandon. According to Soto, Mariduea was always his top choice to play Jaime. The director stated: "His persona is pretty much the character of Jaime Reyes.

The DC Universe's vast cinematic history has led to several heroes receiving box office success, but how do they rank against each other? DC's live-action feature film history stretches back to 1951, with Superman and the Mole-Men kickstarting the long line of movies based on superheroes in the DC world. Since then, there have been several franchises featuring DC characters, from the order of movies in the Dceu to the many different franchises featuring the brand's most popular heroes.

There is no denying that some of the more commonly featured heroes include Batman and Superman, with many highly-ranked Batman movies being released over the decades. The same can be said for Superman, with the upcoming list of Dcu movies and shows from James Gunn continuing this trend by centering around the Man of Steel. However, where DC's other heroes are concerned, box office success has ranged from lucrative to flat-out unprofitable.

Miguel Puga has been working on the Blue Beetle animated series since early 2024 and will act as the project’s showrunner and director, with Cristian Martinez writing the scripts.

Angel Manuel Soto and Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, the top talent behind DC’s 2023 film, return for the Blue Beetle animated series as executive producers alongside John Richard.

Although deals still need to be implemented, their response was positive.

The Blue Beetle animated series continues the story started in Soto’s live-action film. If audiences connect with the animated series, DC could continue the story in a new live-action sequel.

After working as an actor on shows like Sons of Anarchy and Veronica Mars, Taylor Sheridan bravely took a path toward realizing his creative potential and ended up in the writer’s chair. And what a transition it has been! His remarkable evolution blossomed with Sicario’s gripping screenplay, a brilliant example of his storytelling prowess.

The 2015 action-thriller, helmed by the visionary Denis Villeneuve, not only set a milestone for 21st-century cinema but also served as a vehicle for Emily Blunt’s powerful portrayal of Kate Mercer, an FBI agent waging a relentless battle against the drug cartels.

Deeply grounded in reality, Blunt’s character was inspired by a formidable real-life figure, mirroring Sheridan’s quest for authentic, multi-dimensional storytelling. You may be surprised to learn that the studio actually considered casting a man in the role before The Fall Guy actress was chosen.

The film, which came out in April, dethroned “Barbie” for the No. 1 spot but took in a softer-than-expected debut of $25.4 million.

The film represents the penultimate release of the current DC Studios regime, with the upcoming “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” representing the final installment before the...

Blue Beetle director Ángel Manuel Soto aims to bring in The Reach as the villain for a potential sequel, adding more excitement and higher stakes to the DC character's story. The Reach is a formidable group in the DC Universe, possessing advanced technology and scarabs, which could lead to an epic battle between Blue Beetle and this evil empire. Blue Beetle 2 may potentially feature other Dcu heroes, as The Reach's possible invasion of Earth could prompt the appearance of Green Lanterns or other allies to assist Jaime in his fight.

A Blue Beetle sequel promises to be even more exciting than the first movie, as the revealed plans for the character's next adventure hinge on a more frightening villain for the DC Universe hero to face. Blue Beetle saw the debut of Xolo Maridueña's Jaime Reyes, a regular young adult who becomes bonded with Khaji-Da, an alien scarab that completely changes his life,...

Blue Beetle released as part of a series of DC movies with lackluster box office results, raising questions about its future in the DC Universe. The movie introduces Jaime Reyes, the third generation of Blue Beetle, who discovers an alien artifact and becomes a young hero facing conflicts with antagonist Victoria Kord and villain Carapax. Director Ángel Manuel Soto and James Gunn have expressed interest in continuing Jaime's story and finding a way for it to be a part of the new DC Universe, potentially in an Elseworlds side-franchise.

Blue Beetle released during a series of revelations about the Dceu and Dcu, raising a lot of questions about the status of the movie and whether its cast would continue their roles in the future. Blue Beetle was initially described as having the "first Dcu hero", though it was revealed it wouldn't be the first Dcu film, as this would instead be Superman: Legacy.

Director Angel Manuel Soto reflects on the positive impact Blue Beetle has had on young fans, particularly those who see themselves and their families represented onscreen. The film includes references to the comic book origins of Blue Beetle, incorporating elements from Dan Garrett and Ted Kord's mythologies. Soto and James Gunn have discussed the future of Blue Beetle in the DC Universe, hinting at possible crossovers and further development of the character's story.

Blue Beetle may have been a box-office bomb, but it also was the best-reviewed Dceu movie of the last two years. Now that Blue Beetle is available on Digital, fans can check out the movie in the comfort of their homes, but if you’re still on the fence, the 10-minute Blue Beetle opening sequence has been released.

The Blue Beetle opening begins with Victoria Kord (Susan Sarandon) and Carapax (Raoul Max Trujillo) working to unearth the Scarab in Antarctica. Cue the title credits, and we meet Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña) coming home to Palmera City fresh from graduation. Unfortunately, he learns that his family is in danger of losing their home due to financial difficulties.

It seems that “Blue Beetle” has come full circle. The superhero movie was originally slated as an HBO Max (now simply known as Max) streaming release, but then moved to a theatrical run during development. And while it was a box office disappointment — despite getting the top spot during its opening weekend in early August — “Blue Beetle” might find more of an audience when it’s released on digital on September 26.

It’s available to stream as a digital purchase in 4K Ultra HD for $24.99 on Prime Video. If you aren’t a Prime member, you can sign up for a free trial here.

The Ángel Manuel Soto-directed movie tells the story of Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña), a recent-college graduate who returns home to the fictional Palmera City in Florida.

‘Blue Beetle,’ the latest and second-to-last Dceu movie, was released last August, and as it was anticipated, the movie didn’t really do well at the box office. Despite positive reviews from critics and audiences (78% on Tomatometer and 92% on Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes), the movie grossed only $120 million worldwide, which makes it the lowest-grossing Dceu movie ever, falling behind this year’s ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods,’ which grossed only $133 million.

Xolo Maridueña’s debut as the Blue Beetle received favorable criticism, and we can’t blame the movie for its commercial failure. It’s a fact that this movie was released at the worst possible time, and with everything going on around DC Studios and the ongoing strikes, this movie was never given a chance to succeed. Still, James Gunn previously said that he has plans for Maridueña’s Blue Beetle in the future of his Dcu, so...

Ángel Manuel Soto and Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer's "Blue Beetle" (check out our review here) may not have been a box office success, but the latest venture from DC Studios and one of the last films of the DC Cinematic Universe before James Gunn and Peter Safran revamp the studio is thankfully one of the most fun. Not to mention, it's also one of the rare instances where a superhero movie embraces cultural specificity, instead of just perpetuating the same ol' white stories over and over again. If you've yet to see the film, here's what to expect.

Jaime Reyes (Xolo Maridueña) is a recent college grad returning home and ready to take on the world, but a lot has changed over the last four years, and home looks quite a bit different. Thrust into a bit of a quarter-life crisis, Jaime searches for purpose when he comes across an ancient...

Blue Beetle emphasizes diversity, with a predominantly non-White cast and crew, reflecting the importance of authentic representation in the industry. The concept art for Blue Beetle was inspired by the source material, staying true to the comic book character while infusing practicality and realness into the design. The challenging task of designing the Blue Beetle suit required collaboration with the costume designer and a skilled manufacturing team to create a practical and visually striking design.

In Blue Beetle, recent college graduate Jaime Reyes accidentally bonds with an ancient biotechnical alien relic known as the Scarab. However, powerful people led by Victoria Kord want to harness the power of the Scarab for themselves, no matter the cost. Jaime must accept his symbiotic relationship with the Scarab, which grants him a near-indestructible exoskeleton, to protect his family and the world.
