  • DAREDEVIL–Season 3 Reveals New Villian To Be Bullseye
    Wilson Bethel plays Agent Dex, an FBI agent who says he’s “drowning in deep water” after an ambush involving Wilson Fisk. Dex is known for using lethal force and looks like a very accurate shot… like a certain character fans of the comic books are sure to recognize. Bethel’s character is Benjamin Poindexter, who is the alias for the well-known villain Bullseye (portrayed by Colin Farrell in the 2003 movie). Full story at The Wrap.

 

  • HELLBOY–First Footage Electrifies Audience
    A two-minute sizzle reel for the movie was shown to a wildly appreciative crowd, not least of all because star David Harbour made it clear before the footage aired that it wouldn’t be shared online. Fast-paced and filled with action, the offering showcased Harbour’s Hellboy as a witty, violent hero who has little patience for the supernatural world around him, or even the other members of the B.P.R.D. (Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense) who aren’t thrilled at working with him. Full story at Hollywood Reporter.
