The Vampire Lestat
For its third season, Interview With The Vampire has been retitled to reflect its focus on Lestat de Lioncourt, now a globally famous rock star. We speak to star Sam Reid and showrunner Rolin Jones for an eight-page feature.
Disclosure Day
The man behind Close Encounters Of The Third KInd and ET The Extra-Terrestrial has returned to the subject of alien life... is it all, as some conspiracy types are ready to believe, part of a plan to prepare humanity for a big announcement. Er, no – at least that’s what screenwriter David Koepp tells us.
Masters Of The Universe
It starts off on Earth, but don’t worry – Travis Knight’s new take on the beloved ‘80s toon will eventually see Prince Adam holding his sword aloft on the planet Eternia. We speak with the director, and find out if his leading (He-)man Nicholas Galitzine has the necessary poowwwwer.
The Boroughs
The Duffer Brothers’ new series focuses on a rather different demographic from their last one, as the inhabitants of a retirement community (including septuagenarian icons like Alfred Molina, Geena Davis and Bill Pullman) band together to stop an otherworldly threat. The Stranger Things creators tell us more.
From
Our in-depth coverage of the haunting horror TV show continues, as our man goes behind the scenes to take a tour of the prosthetics department and stroll around the sets.
Westworld
No, not the TV show... the classic 1973 movie, written and directed by Michael Crichton, set in a theme park where the androids go on the fritz. In our latest retrospective feature, Richard Benjamin reminisces about his starring role as Western World guest Peter.
And that’s not all, feature-wise. We also talk to Marlon Wayans about whether reviving the Scary Movie franchise will get him cancelled, profile novelist Ray Nayler, and get Temi Oh to answer our author questionnaire.
Red Alert
And the big features are just the tip of the iceberg! As ever, our news section, Red Alert, is crammed with insights into yet more movies, TV shows, comics and books. In the spotlight this month: creepypasta movie Backrooms, Toy Story 5, a new TV version of Cape Fear, season four of The Legend Of Vox Machina, footy-themed animated show Dragon Striker, plus the latest BRZRKR, Doctor Doom, Star Trek, Trigan Empire and X-Men comics.
