Director Chad Stahelski is known for his work on the John Wick series, but he’s also a big fan of Star Wars and would leap at the chance of making an entry in that series some day. Appearing on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Stahelski said he has some ideas for a Star Wars project, but he wondered if he might be the right fit for the traditionally more family friendly Disney.
“I’m a Star Wars guy,” Stahelski said (via IGN). “The first Star Wars changed my life path. Maybe someday out there, Disney if you’re listening, hit me in a couple of years. I have a couple of takes for Star Wars. I’d take a swing at that, see if Disney could survive me.”
Stahelski went on to say that “of course” he’s interested in making non-John Wick movies. However, one of the challenges with workin…
In addition to the PlayStation-exclusive Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Hideo Kojima’s Kojima Productions is making the Xbox-exclusive OD. In a new interview, the legendary game designer shared a small morsel about OD, referring to the game as “risky.”
He told Variety he wanted to work on a game outside the Death Stranding series, so he partnered with Microsoft for OD. “This is a game, but it’s a game like no other. I can’t go into too much detail, and it’s also hard to explain,” he said. “But it’s a bit risky and a new challenge for me within the realm of games.”

Mobile gaming is big business these days, and Lenovo’s next gaming phone plans to enter that market with some even bigger ideas. Officially revealed this week, the Legion Phone Duel 2 features beastly specs inside of a frame that is designed primarily for gaming. A 6.92-inch 2,460 x 1,080 144Hz high-refresh rate OLED screen sits on top of a new Snapdragon 888 processor, up to 18GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and up to 512GB of UFS3.1 storage, which all run off of Lenovo’s ZUI 12.5 operating system that is based on Android 11.
The rest of the phone doubles up on the hardware offerings, with two USB-C ports, two batteries, and two cooling fans that work alongside a vapor chamber to keep the processor from overheating. One of the more curious design decisions is that the two rear cameras, a 64-me…

Lord of the Rings stunt double and actor Kiran Shah–who was the scale and stunt double for all five Hobbits in the original series–has shed some new light on some of the injuries he sustained while making the movies.
Shah told Metro UK that one of his injuries was extremely serious. For a pivotal battle scene in Return of the King, Shah broke his back after falling off a horse.
“I broke my back on Lord of the Rings,” he said. “In the last big fight in Return of the King, I was riding in front of Pippin, riding the horse, fighting the big [Oliphant] and slashing it with both hands and Pippin is controlling the horse. The first run we did, he bolted. He took one big step and I took off completely…I couldn’t even kick off the horse. I couldn’t turn on my back, and I landed …
Actor Andy Serkis is famous for, among other things, his incredible talent for motion-capture characters. One of his first high-profile roles of that type was Gollum from Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings series. It was a celebrated performance and helped propel Serkis to other motion-capture roles, including Caesar from Planet of the Apes. But not everyone was a fan of Serkis’ motion-capture roles, including Gollum, all those years ago.
Serkis told GQ that he had “the role of the evangelist” for motion-capture roles as Gollum on The Lord of the Rings, though he gave credit to the characters Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars and Tom Hanks’ character in The Polar Express as examples of motion-capture characters before Gollum. For The Lord of the Rings, Serkis recalls people misunder…
