Screamboat

According to Bloody-Disgusting, the Steamboat Willie horror movie is now titled Screamboat, and is currently scheduled for a 2025 theatrical release through Iconic Events Releasing. A new logline states the film concerns “a mischievous mouse [who] stalks a group of New Yorkers on a late night ferry ride, unleashing murderous mayhem on a relaxing commute. Can the ship’s motley crew of travelers find a way to stop a killer creature who has developed a taste for tourists?”


Sonic the Hedgehog 3

Idris Elba stated Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is “for all the real diehard” Sonic fans in a new interview with Collider.

I can tell you that it’s super exciting. I can tell you that it really does get deeper into the universe of Sonic. I think 3's probably the one for all the real diehard Sonic fans. They’re gonna get all of those Easter eggs in it.


The Platform 2

Bloody-Disgusting also has a couple new images from The Platform 2, coming to Netflix sometime later this year.

The Coffee Table

The purchase of a haunted coffee table puts additional strain on a couple’s marriage in the trailer for The Coffee Table, a Spanish horror film coming to VOD in the UK this May.


Interview With the Vampire

During a recent interview with SFX Magazine (via Games Radar), Interview With the Vampire star Sam Reid revealed the show’s second season includes “a really cool twist” that’s “not in the books.”

There’s a really f-cking cool twist in this season that is not in the books that I struggled with because I was like, ‘This is different, and I’m not sure. But actually, you can justify it because when you look at the books and look at the way that they come out, and what happens in subsequent books after season one, there is a level of an unreliable element. You don’t always have to know the truth, because Anne Rice never really tells you the truth. She likes to change it up a bit.


Sunny
