Moonfall

Josh Gad has joined the cast of Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall as KC Houseman, a character described as “odd and unkempt in a way that suggests a high level of intelligence and an equally high level of disorganization.” THR notes Gad’s character is also the one to “correctly predict that the moon has fallen out of its orbit.”

Scream 5

Neve Campbell revealed to Collider she’s “not 100 percent” on returning for a fifth Scream movie.

Well, I’m not a hundred percent on it. But to be honest, the two directors ( Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett) have made some great work. I’ve watched their films, and they’re really talented. They wrote a letter to me, expressing what great fans of Wes’ work they are, and how honored they are that they’re getting the chance to make Scream 5 because the Scream franchise is the reason that they’re directors now. So, that was really sweet. They really wanna honor Wes’ style of work and honor the movies. That was a lovely thing to hear. So, we’ll see. Hopefully, we can all see eye to eye on everything and make something great, but it’s a process.


Tenet

Robert Pattinson revealed Christopher Nolan’s Tenet apparently includes “no time traveling” during a recent interview with GQ, so please adjust your theories accordingly.

I’m so curious. I mean, I literally haven’t seen a frame of this movie. [my character’s] not a time traveler. There’s actually no time traveling. [laughs] That’s, like, the one thing I’m approved to say.

Justice League Dark

Matt Ryan told Den of Geek he hopes to audition for John Constantine in the upcoming Justice League Dark show for HBO Max.

Listen, I know that they probably won’t use the TV actor in the movie. All I would like is just get me in the room because I’m not a TV actor, I’m an actor. I’m a theater actor, you know? That’s where I spent most of my life. I always say to them, ‘Just get me in the room.’ And then if they don’t want me for the role that’s their choice. But I would be very disappointed if a project like that went ahead without even sitting down and seeing what I could do with the material. Even though the material is different and I know that I’m gonna have to adhere to the material in my head, I have to stay in that world of John Constantine and all of those comics that I love,” Ryan says. “So even though I have to dance to these different tunes, that’s what I want to think about, and that’s what I fell in love with. Whatever happens, John Constantine is a great character. I have no right to this character, no ownership over him. I’m an actor! How many people play Hamlet or Macbeth? I feel lucky to have played him, but there’s a part of me artistically that wants to dive into a part of John that I want to explore, and hopefully that opportunity comes!”
