Ari Aster is rounding out the cast of his next film Eddington, and some of Hollywood’s biggest stars will be a part of its ensemble. Pedro Pascal, Emma Stone, and Austin Butler have joined Joaquin Phoenix in Aster’s next A24 film.

Phoenix will reunite with Aster on this mystery project, after previously leading his previous film Beau Is Afraid. Not much is known about their next collaboration, but it’s been rumored it will be a Western about a small-town sheriff with high expectations. It’s safe to expect it will explore the dark side of the human psyche, like all of Aster’s previous films.

In addition to Phoenix, this film will also star the Emmy nominee Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us), the recent Oscar winner Emma Stone (Poor Things), and Oscar nominee Austin Butler (Dune: Part Two).

They’ll also be joined by Luke Grimes (Yellowstone), Deirdre O’Connell (Outer Range), Micheal Ward (Top Boy), and Clifton Collins Jr. (Jockey) in supporting roles.

Eddington will mark Aster’s fourth collaboration with A24, following the success of his horror films Hereditary and Midsommar and last year’s tragicomedy Beau Is Afraid. In addition to writing and directing this film, he’ll also produce it alongside Lars Knudsen under their Square Peg banner.

It was just a matter of time before Marvel announced the new The Fantastic Four movie, and they finally made things official on Valentine’s Day. Pedro Pascal will lead the star-studded cast of this superhero movie, alongside Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach.

Pascal’s casting doesn’t come as a huge shocker for Marvel fans since he’s been rumored to play Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic for quite some time. It’s still a true miracle he found time in his busy schedule to lead this project, since he’s also a star of the hit TV shows The Mandalorian and Last of Us.

Pascal will be in pretty good company on the set since he’ll be joined by Vanessa Kirby (The Crown, Mission: Impossible franchise) as Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman, Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things) as Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (The Bear) as Ben Grimm aka the Thing.

Matt Shakman (WandaVision) is on board to direct this film, which hails from writers Josh Friedman, Jeff Kaplan, and Ian Springer. The Fantastic Four will be released in theatres on July 25, 2025, as a part of the Phase Six of the MCU. Thos slot was previously reserved for Thunderbolts, which moved to May 2, 2025.

Celine Song gave us one of the best films of 2023 with Past Lives, and she’s already working on its follow-up. The acclaimed director is rounding out an impressive cast for her new movie The Materialists, with Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans eyeing key roles.

The Materialists will reportedly center on a high-end matchmaker who gets involved with a wealthy man, while still struggling to let go of her feelings for the broke actor-waiter she left behind. Johnson is in talks to play the lead role, with Evans and Pascal circling the project.

This project will reunite Song with A24, and they’re expected to take it to the European Film Market for sales. Killer Films and 2AM are also on board, with Christine Vachon and Pam Koffler of Killer Films and 2AM’s David Hinojosa coming on board as producers.

Song knocked it out of the park with her directorial film debut Past Lives, starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, and John Magaro. It became a huge hit following its premiere at last year’s Sundance Film Festival and received nominations for countless accolades. It will be in the running for best original screenplay and best picture at the upcoming Academy Awards.

The Mandalorian made quite a splash when it premiered on Disney+ almost five years ago, and its next chapter will be the most spectacular one yet. The Mandalorian & Grogu are coming to the big screen in the next Star Wars movie, which hails from director and producer Jon Favreau.

Since its premiere in 2019, The Mandalorian has chronicled the adventures of the lone bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and the Force-sensitive child Grogu, who he’s trying to save from Imperial forces after being hired to hunt him down.

The Mandalorian creator Jon Favreau is returning to direct and produce this project, and he said that “the prospect of bringing the Mandalorian and his apprentice Grogu to the big screen is extremely exciting.”

Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm, also released a statement confirming this project, saying, “Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have ushered into Star Wars two new and beloved characters, and this new story is a perfect fit for the big screen.”

The Mandalorian became a smash hit following its premiere in 2019 and produced three seasons so far. The success of this series led to several interconnected spin-offs that expanded the world of the original show, including The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and the upcoming Skeleton Crew.

Marvel bosses are getting ready to reboot the Fantastic Four franchise, and it seems they’ve found the perfect man for the job! The Emmy-nominated actor Pedro Pascal is eying the role of the Fantastic Four leader Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic in Marvel’s upcoming remake.

Pascal’s casting is yet to be confirmed, but he’s currently a front-runner for the role, according to Deadline. Marvel is yet to officially confirm the news because they have to figure out the scheduling with Pascal, and they can’t proceed with casting other roles before locking down the actor who’ll lead the team as Reed Richards.

Even before eying this role, Pascal was one of the busiest actors working in Hollywood right now. He’s the leading star of Disney’s The Mandalorian and HBO’s The Last of Us, in addition to being attached to several high-profile films, starting with Ridley Scott’s Gladiator 2 and Ethan Coen’s Drive-Away Dolls.

If Pascal manages to officially secure this role, he’ll follow in the footsteps of Ioan Gruffudd and Miles Teller, who portrayed Reed Richards in the previous two incarnations of the Fantastic Four franchise. John Krasinski also made a brief cameo as this character in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

The Last of Us is one of HBO’s biggest productions in recent memory and they’re betting big on this post-apocalyptic show. Just a few episodes into the first season, the critically acclaimed video game adaptation has already been renewed for Season 2.

The Last of Us draws inspiration from Naughty Dog’s award-winning video game, and it received a lot of praise for being faithful to the source material. It centers on a hardened survivor Joel (Pedro Pascal), who’s been hired to smuggle a teenage girl Ellie (Bella Ramsey) out of an oppressive quarantine zone and across the post-apocalyptic United States.

In addition to Pascal and Ramsey, the show also stars Gabriel Luna, Anna Torv, Nico Parker, Murray Bartlett, Nick Offerman, Melanie Lynskey, and Storm Reid.

The game’s author Neil Druckmann, who co-created its TV adaptation with Craig Mazin, thanked the fans for supporting the show and said it’s the absolute pleasure to bring it back for Season 2.

“I’m humbled, honored, and frankly overwhelmed that so many people have tuned in and connected with our retelling of Joel and Ellie’s journey. The collaboration with Craig Mazin, our incredible cast & crew, and HBO exceeded my already high expectations,” said Druckmann in a statement.

Disney is getting ready to further expand Star Wars universe in a series of TV shows they are currently developing. The Mandalorian will be one of them, in it already found its lead in Narcos star Pedro Pascal.

The upcoming space opera takes place after the fall of the Empire and before the emergence of the First Order. It chronicles the odyssey of a lone gunfighter who hails from the planet Mandalore, home of the infamous bounty hunter Boba Fett.

Pedro Pascal got his breakthrough in 2014, with the role of a passionate warrior Oberyn Martell in the HBO smash hit Game of Thrones. It didn’t take him long to land a lead role in another critically acclaimed series – Netflix crime drama Narcos. His recent credits include Kingsman: The Golden Circle, The Equalizer 2 and If Beale Street Could Talk.

The Mandalorian isn’t the only Star Wars spin-off that’s set to premiere on Disney’s new streaming service Disney+. Studio’s CEO Bob Iger recently announced they’re also working on Rogue One prequel series, starring Diego Luna as Cassian Andor.
