The Are You Afraid of the Dark movie faces a major delay. Another Disney+ series could be happening, revolving around classic animated villains. A surprise new Alien animated series is coming very soon. Plus, Captain Marvel and the new Kim Possible team up, and what’s to come on Project Blue Book. Spoilers, away!
Bond 25
According to Collider, Rami Malek is allegedly in final negotiations to join the cast of the next Bond movie, as the main villain of the film.
Fear Street
Collider has word Kiana Madeira and Olivia Welch will play a pair of gay teenagers “trying to navigate their rocky relationship when they’re targeted by the crazy horrors of their small town, Shadyside” over the course of all three Fear Street movies. The outlet continues, “each actress will be playing two different characters—one in the mid-‘90s, and one in the 1600s, when gay women faced even greater adversity and repercussions.”
Detective Pikachu
Speaking with Comic Book, Rob Delaney revealed he has a small role in Detective Pikachu.
That I can say, only because other people have been saying it. So, yeah, I am in that, yes. My part takes place completely in the real world. So I didn’t have to interact with any of those weird little whatevers.
Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Regrettably, Paramount’s Are You Afraid of The Dark? movie has been removed from their 2019 release slate entirely. No word on whether this will effect Nickelodeon’s promotional tie-in miniseries airing in October.
Paramount release date announcements:
UNTITLED FAMILY EVENT MOVIE (based on Clifford the Big Red Dog) will release on 11/13/20
RUGRATS has moved from 11/13/20 to 1/29/21
