There’s only one episode remaining in Sullivan’s Crossing Season 3, and the showrunner for the hit series just dropped a bomb about its future. Sullivan’s Crossing author Robyn Carr confirmed earlier this year that the show had been greenlit for a fourth season, but cast and crew have been shy about sharing updates while Season 3 has still been on air, until now.

Sullivan’s Crossing showrunner Roma Roth recently sat down for a tell-all interview on the future of the show, and she was asked if she could drop any details about the finale. While she, understandably, declined to share any specifics, she did tease a major bomb drop coming in the finale that will lead directly into Season 4:

“There’s never a dull moment at Sullivan’s Crossing. A romance drama series needs to have push and pull between your characters… we’re going to have a pretty big shoe...

“Sullivan’s Crossing” Season 3 is finally here, bringing us back to the Crossing. The CW romance will return in May after a slight release date delay, a few weeks after the season debuted in Canada, where it airs on CTV.

Based on the book series by “Virgin River” author Robyn Carr, “Sullivan’s Crossing” follows neurosurgeon Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) back to her small hometown after her dream life in Boston gets turned upside down. Back home, she tries to rebuild a relationship with her estranged father, Sully (Scott Patterson), while falling for newcomer Cal Jones (Chad Michael Murray).

Season 2 was filled with emotional confessions, Maggie’s choice to commit to her life in the Crossing, including Cal, and a diner fire that devastated the community. The wait to find out where it all leads is almost over, so here’s everything to know about when and where you can watch new episodes of “Sullivan’s Crossing.

Panic is starting to set in for Maggie Sullivan (Morgan Kohan) and her loved ones in the latest episode of Sullivan's Crossing. Season 3, Episode 7, titled "Twists and Turns," sees just about everyone show out to help Cal (Chad Michael Murray) and the search and rescue team when Lola (Amalia Williamson) and Jacob (Joel Oulette) turn up missing following their date out in the woods. Last week's episode saw the couple's romantic stroll into a local mine take a turn when they accidentally cause a collapse right as the credits rolled. Ahead of the premiere tonight on The CW, Collider can share an exclusive sneak peek that shows the exact moment when they realize that something might be horribly wrong.

Initially, all seems well at the Crossing with Maggie and Edna (Andrea Menard) plating some treats at the counter while Frank (Tom Jackson) sits at the table. Their first sign that...

The production, shot in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia and Ontario, also stars Stephen Amell and Sean Astin.

Directed by Grammy nominee Andy Hines, the film is based on true events from the late 1980s, depicting a remote mining and fishing town’s transformation into a hub for a major cocaine smuggling operation.

Man and machine collide in Simulant. Set in a future where artificial intelligence and robotic technology is a part of normal life, the story follows Evan, a normal man who loses his life in a car accident. Unable to cope with the loss, his grieving wife, Faye, resurrects him as a sentient AI, except Evan doesn’t realize he is no longer human.

When he has the shocking revelation, Evan seeks out global hacker Casey to turn off the restrictions placed on his programming. At the same time, Agent Kessler, who works for the government agency Aice [Artificial Intelligence Compliance and Enforcement] is hellbent on hunting down simulants no longer under complete control of their owners. Soon enough, Evan and Casey find themselves on his radar and in danger. Simulant's star-studded cast includes Robbie Amell, Jordana Brewster, Simu Liu, and Sam Worthington.

Director April Mullen recently spoke to Cbr about Simulant's unique hook, it...

What does it mean to be human? The upcoming sci-fi film Simulant sets out to answer that very philosophical question. Set in the future, Simulant follows Evan [Robbie Amell], a man who was recently been involved in a car crash, but can't recall much from the accident. His grieving wife, Faye [Jordana Brewster], brought him back to life as an android simulant. To fully embrace what it means to be human, Evan seeks out Casey [Simu Liu], a global hacker and simulant expert who can liberate him from his core programming and allow Evan to make his own decisions. This restrictions-free Evan makes Faye uncomfortable. Meanwhile, government Agent Kessler's [Sam Worhington] robot-hunting mission to thwart the possible uprising of simulants puts him on a collision course with Evan and Casey.

Amell recently spoke with Cbr about his relationship with this A.I. character, crafting the performance, working alongside Simu Liu, and technological advancements.

April Mullen’s (Wanderer) seventh feature film, Simulant, is drenched in classic sci-fi tropes, but it never makes a mark of its own. Ryan Christopher Churchill's (Love Your Enemy) script is predictable up until the final ten minutes of the film. Though the cast is full of recognizable names and faces, none of them are up to the task of elevating Simulant in a meaningful way. The production value is where the film shines and both the practical and special effects are seamless, but Simulant is a story we’ve seen before that sadly brings nothing new to the genre.

In a world of increasingly more human A.I., the line between man and machine is blurrier than ever. These new hybrids, called simulants, are identical to humans with two notable exceptions. They are robots, and they have to abide by the four precepts: Do not inflict harm on...

In the movie world, since the very beginning, artificial intelligence and the threats to humanity when it comes to technology have been explored through several mediums. One of the first movies to delve into these subjects was the German classic Metropolis, which is still well-loved today as one of the original science fiction movies, but it also marked the very first-time artificial intelligence appeared on a screen.

Many years later, the likes of Star Wars, Blade Runner, and so many more have shown an explosion in the popularity of technology in cinema. In 2023, the beginnings of the realities depicted on the screen might be coming towards everyday consumers in the wealthy world, especially as concepts like ChatGPT expand and are built upon.

But in the Canadian film Simulant, the foundations laid by previous movies and television shows are explored once again. The movie, which is directed by April Mullen, stars Robbie Arnell,...

Sci-fi thriller Simulant is already breaking the mold by being an original story, directed by April Mullen (Wander) from a screenplay by Ryan Christopher Churchill. Despite not being tied to a tentpole franchise, it boasts a star-studded cast that includes Shang-Chi's Simu Liu, Upload's Robbie Amell, the Fast and Furious franchise's Jordana Brewster, and the Avatar movies' Sam Worthington. Amell plays Evan, a man who discovers he is actually a synthetic version of himself brought back to life by his partner Faye (Brewster).

Simulant bears similarities to Blade Runner, especially given the character of Agent Kessler (Worthington) who is meant to track down rogue A.I. and stop an uprising. The movie leans heavily on Evan's human memories, however, juggling his love for Faye with the new knowledge he is gleaming about A.I. from the mysterious hacker Casey (Liu). The result is a story that is romantic, political, and...

Sam Worthington and Simu Liu have a tense confrontation in an exclusive Simulant clip. Helmed by Wander's April Mullen, the sci-fi thriller is set in the near future in which an android simulant, created for a woman to replace her dead husband, hires a brilliant hacker to remove his restrictions governing thoughts and capabilities, inadvertently unleashing an A.I. uprising around the world. Alongside recent Marvel Cinematic Universe addition Liu and Avatar franchise lead Worthington, the cast for Simulant includes Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City's Robbie Amell, Fast X's Jordana Brewster, Alicia Sanz, Mako Nguyen, and Emmanuel Kabongo.

The 2023 sci-fi thriller Simulant features a star-studded cast including the McU's Simu Liu in a major starring role. Released in its native Canada in April 2023, Simulant follows a recently deceased man (Robbie Amell) who gets caught up in an A.I. revolution after his consciousness is transferred into a new synthetic body. Playing on classic sci-fi tropes but with a modern twist, Simulant manages to find its own way of telling a Blade Runner-like story, and it does so with a hard-edged independent aesthetic. Though it isn't a tentpole franchise film, Simulant manages to assemble an impressive cast of stars that helps to elevate its well-worn premise.

Simulant is yet another genre film from prolific Canadian actor and director April Mullen, and follows in a string of ambitious projects like 2012's Dead by Dawn which she has helmed. As revealed in the trailer for Simulant, the relatively small ensemble...

Simulant is a sci-fi thriller directed by April Mullen starring Robbie Amell, Jordana Brewster, Simu Liu and Sam Worthington.

It is a world full of misery, ruled by technology in which humans count for little, because Artificial Intelligence controls everything.

No, it’s not Italian neorealism. For at least the next six months, it’s science fiction.

Not the best.

Movie review Simulant (2023)

The trouble with dreams is that sometimes they come true, and the fictions that Aldous Huxley and George Orwell (or even Philip K. Dick) imagined are starting to come true with the advent of AI, and Simulant is just one of the thousands attempts of rendering to come.

It’s neither disastrous nor is it good, but the seed that brings it to life has neither an apotheosis formulation nor anything we don’t read about on the newspapers in a daily basis, nor is the story development brutal enough,...

2023 has been an amazing year for film so far. There have already been a ton of stand-out films in the horror, action, and animated genres. However, the one genre left out of the fun so far this year has been sci-fi. That’ll soon change with the April Mullen-directed film Simulant starring Robbie Amell (The Flash), Jordana Brewster (The Fast and the Furious), Simu Liu (Shang-Chi), and Sam Worthington (Avatar: The Way of Water). The sci-fi thriller produced by Vertical Entertainment is set to release this May. Now the new trailer for Simulant previews this star-studded futuristic thrill ride.

Simu Liu stars as a hacker who instigates an artificial intelligence robot uprising in the Simulant trailer. Set in the not-too-distant future, Evan (Robbie Amell) wakes up in his home to find that he died in a tragic car accident and had his consciousness transplanted into an artificial body called a Simulant. As Evan struggles with his identity, he finds himself in the middle of an AI Simulant uprising influenced by genius hacker Casey (Liu).

The action-packed Simulant trailer (via Vertical) sees Evan locate Casey in hopes of unlocking his android restraints to feel more human.

However, Casey's actions have caught the attention of law enforcement, seeing ambitious Agent Kessler, portrayed by Avatar's Sam Worthington, lead a government manhunt to track the skilled hacker down.

Exclusive: Yellowstone and Fifty Shades franchise actor Luke Grimes has signed on to star in the sci-fi-thriller Hello Stranger, with April Mullen (Wander) slated to direct from a screenplay penned by Ryan Christopher Churchill.

In Hello Stranger, a woman attempts to replace her newly deceased husband, Evan (Grimes), with an android simulant. Although Sim Evan appears like human Evan in every way, Faye does not feel the same love for Sim Evan as it does for her. Sim Evan tries to win Faye back, while at the same time, he is on the run from a government agent chasing down SIMs who have become “conscious” and could be a threat to humankind. Casting on the other key roles is underway.

The film marks Mullen’s follow-up to feature Wander, starring Aaron Eckhart, Katheryn Winnick and Tommy Lee Jones, which was released by Saban, and her Toronto Film Festival feature Below Her Mouth,...

If you're the kind of person who races to Rotten Tomatoes before you give a movie the time of day, then you probably think Wander isn't worth your time.

After reading this review of April Mullen's interpretation of Tim Doiron's script, you might be persuaded to give the film another chance.

Not only is the story unique, but it's brought to life by an all-star cast. When a group of actors like this assembles for a low-budget film, it's worth considering that they saw something special in the material.

Although it will be tough, I will do my best not to spoil too much of the movie here in the review.

The more you know about the story's particulars, the less likely you will be surprised by what unfolds before you. This isn't the kind of movie that you'll enjoy if you know too much.

Wander follows Arthur Bretnik,...

A “Jacob’s Ladder”-ish paranoid thriller arriving just in time to find conspiracy theories plunked right in the middle of post-election American politics, “Wander” only muddies the water further. This latest collaboration between director April Mullen and writer Tim Doiron offers yet another unpredictable shift, but pushes its idiosyncrasies off a cliff before establishing any narrative terra firma.

There is some pleasure to be had in watching an atypically frenetic Aaron Eckhart as a Ptsd-afflicted loner wading deep into possibly-imagined evildoings in the Southwest, with Tommy Lee Jones and Heather Graham also welcome as two allies. Still, the film’s hyperbolic style and convoluted storytelling tend to exhaust patience rather than build intrigue, making for a muddle whose too-many twists and turns ultimately seem meaningless as well as implausible. Saban Films is releasing the Canadian co-production to American audiences via digital, on demand and available theaters Dec. 4.

Aaron Eckhart is living on the edge these days, and he couldn’t be more excited about it. With April Mullen’s Wander set for release on Dec. 4, Eckhart is at the beginning of a “three or four” film run of independent releases that offer him the freedom he’s rarely found in the major studio system. On the set of Wander, Eckhart embraced the daily unpredictability of independent film, especially since it suited his character rather well.

"We're pinning down the truth." Saban Films has unveiled a trailer for a small town mystery thriller titled Wander, from filmmaker April Mullen. This just premiered at the Deauville Film Festival in France, but that's the only place it has screened. Aaron Eckhart stars as a mentally unstable private detective hired to investigate a suspicious death in the small town of Wander. He soon believes the murder may be linked to the death of his daughter and a "conspiracy cover up". From the looks of it, there may be some truth to this but not everything is what it seems. The film also stars Raymond Cruz, Katheryn Winnick, Heather Graham, Brendan Fehr, Nicole Steinwedell, with Tommy Lee Jones. This looks like so many other dusty small town crime thrillers, but at least Eckhart has a grizzled, unhinged character to dig into this time. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for April Mullen's Wander,...

Imagine the Pizzagate guy was the main character in a movie. Then imagine that guy was played by Aaron Eckhart, with Tommy Lee Jones playing his conspiracy theorizing, podcasting accomplice. Then imagine those two knuckleheads set out to save a small town from a deadly deep state plot involving microchips, exploding organs and camerawork so hyperactive you may need to take several Ritalin before the screening.

If you can imagine all of this, then you can picture Wander, an overtaxing paranoid thriller from director April Mullen (Badsville) and writer-producer Tim Doiron that made its world premiere at the Deauville festival. Recently ...
