A year after Succession ended, Jeremy Strong has found the perfect follow-up in Ali Abbasi's The Apprentice. Strong and Sebastian Stan lead The Apprentice cast as Roy Cohn and Donald Trump, portraying the well-known real-life figures in the 1970s and '80s, examining a historically defining mentorship. Cohn, a prosecutor known for flushing out communists in the United States government and having them served with the death penalty, passes on his "winner's mentality" to a young Donald Trump, teaching him how to be ruthless in the world of business and politics.

Despite numerous outstanding roles, Jeremy Strong is best known for playing Kendall Roy in four seasons of Succession, an HBO series that's quickly become regarded as one of the...

The Apprentice explores Roy Cohn's mentorship of a young Donald Trump, leading audiences to wonder about the real-life figure behind the movie. Directed by Ali Abbasi, the 2024 film follows Trump in the 1970s and '80s as a young businessman with high hopes for his future. He begins the film sitting at a high-end social club, admiring the great and wealthy men around him, and it isn't until meeting Roy Cohn that he acquires the tools perceived as being necessary to become like them. Cohn and Trump are played by Jeremy Strong and Sebastian Stan in The Apprentice's cast.

Abbasi's movie introduces Roy Cohn as a cold, calculating, practically devil-like figure who teaches Trump how to mingle with the wealthy and survive in a cutthroat business world. By the point audiences are introduced to Cohn, he's already an established figure socializing with the likes of Tony Salerno,...

Warning: Contains spoilers for Wolverine #32The X-Men hero Wolverine's reputation as a brutal but honorable warrior is being tarnished, as the despicable Beast unleashes his army of Logan clones on unsuspecting victims, all in the name of "the greater good."

Beast's descent into villainy is the single most terrible example of a former X-Men hero turning evil. Most heroes become villains due to outside influence or power manipulation. However, Beast is choosing to abuse and defile his former friend Wolverine simply because his self-righteous mind thinks his ends justify his means.

Beast's full-blown status as a villain has been building for months now, potentially even years, but Wolverine #32 - from writer Benjamin Percy and artist Juan Jose Ryp - shows that Hank McCoy is now simply beyond redemption. He has turned Logan's horrifying experience as a victim of the Weapon X program into fodder for his "Beast Agenda," utilizing clones...

If you are looking for a perfect mix of humor, action, and cold savagery, then you should consider watching the Deadpool movies in order. Owing to the brilliant execution of the character by Ryan Reynolds and the great chemistry shared by him with his costar Morena Baccarin, the movie series has become almost a household name.

As a part of 20th Century Fox’s X-men series, the Deadpool film series began with the release of “Deadpool.”

Deadpool’s first film was released in 2016 and is based on the Marvel Comic character of the same name. Being one of the important parts of the X-men franchise, it was produced with an estimated budget of 58 million and earned a gross of 782.6 million worldwide.

You will be surprised to see how unabashedly funny the action movie “Deadpool” is. The love story twist in this superhero film gives the movie a solid emotional core.

[[tmz:video id="0_9qiv7a19"]] Gilbert Arenas didn't even hesitate when we asked if Kyrie Irving can win another Larry O'Brien trophy without LeBron James -- "No." We spoke with Agent Zero outside of a 7-Eleven in L.A. where the ex-nba superstar was promoting his Life Water company -- and he broke down the Kyrie, LeBron drama. That wasn't all for No Chill Gil ... he also weighed in on Lonzo Ball -- blasting comparisons to Magic Johnson and Jason Kidd.

Gilbert Arenas is throwing some major salt in Nick Young's wounds -- clowning the guy for getting dumped by Iggy Azalea ... and he ain't pullin' any punches.  We Thought the two were friends -- especially when Gilbert told us he had planned on going to Nick's bachelor party a few months back. But Nick wasn't having it and told him he wasn't invited. [[tmz:video id="0_pu57fcmu"]] Fast forward to Monday night ... after Gilbert found out Iggy broke...

With Fox planning to bring X-Men to the small screen, we look at a few possible comic series that could be adapted...

Fox's apparent plans for a live-action X-Men series gives the fans of mutant's mutant superheroes a reason to be excited. Not just because it promises more screen X-Men that most of us ever thought possible, but also because there's a chance they might delve into a few areas of the license that, realistically, aren't ever going to make it to the movie screen.

The core concept of X-Men - essentially 'people with superpowers' – has lent itself to hundreds of different takes over the years. Assuming that they don't want to simply recast the big names and run two competing franchises based on the same core team (and they might well do this!) where else might they go to find the basis of the TV show?

Some of the...

Comic book films are full of intricate storytelling. But sometimes, even Batman, Spider-Man & Iron Man need Basil Exposition's help...

This article contains spoilers for Avengers: Age Of Ultron and various other comic book movies - if you're not entirely up to date, then watch out as you read on...

As you know, we're enjoying a golden age of comic book movies and there are around 30 more of them pencilled in before the decade is out. Since Marvel Studios started experimenting with continuity between movies and whole franchises, there's been criticism of its use of MacGuffins and plot exposition - it provokes nightmares of long-winded recaps of already established stuff, starting with dreaded phrases like 'as you know'. And who'd start anything with those three words?

It's not that we're mistaking the use of exposition for poor storytelling - it's a super-broad term to describe something that's kind of essential to most stories.

Javaris Crittenton is dead to Gilbert Arenas.  Agent Zero was out in L.A. last night ... when we asked if he would ever consider visiting his x-nba teammate in prison, where he'll be spend the next 23 years for killing a woman in 2011. Fyi -- the two made headlines together back in 2009 ... when they pulled guns on each other in the Washington Wizards locker room. But Arenas tells TMZ Sports he's erased Javaris from his memory...

The X-Men have been around for more than 50 years. They multiply: rapidly, frequently, endlessly. They aren’t really a superteam like the Justice League or the Avengers, those all-star crews built out of solo-series stars (Superman, Captain America) mixed together with B-list glue characters (Martian Manhunter, Wonder Man). With one very obvious exception and a few other arguable exceptions, the X-Men aren’t Solo-Star people. They are a team.

Or rather, teams. Chris Claremont’s iconic decade-and-a-half run on Uncanny X-Men cemented the idea that the X-lineup was eternally fluid: Characters died, left on sabbatical, joined the Avengers, got replaced...

[With X-Men: Days of Future Past opening on Friday, I'm taking a look back at the X-Men movie franchise. These reviews contain spoilers.] Since X-Men: The Last Stand killed Cyclops and Jean, half-killed Professor X, and weakened Magneto, the trilogy had concluded not because it was narratively fulfilled, but because it was exhausted. There was no place left for the X-Men to go, but fans knew that Wolverine's story had plenty of places to visit, most notably, his origin. X2 gave causal viewers enough information to figure out what happened to Logan, but fans knew there was far more to his story. The movie lined up not only the Weapon X narrative, but also provided fan-favorite characters such Deadpool and Gambit. But behind-the-scenes disasters and an abominable script weakened Wolverine and the franchise more than a revolver full of adamantium bullets. Confined to the weak origin story from the comics (Wolverine was originally a sick kid! Twist!), the movie begins with promising opening credits as Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and Victor Creed (Liev Schreiber...

Despite the fact he trashed Magic Johnson and called Anderson Cooper a racist ... there's one man who says he Forgives Donald Sterling -- former NBA superstar Gilbert Arenas. Agent Zero went to Instagram after Sterling's attempted mea culpa on CNN last night for the previous racist comments he made -- and said, "I'll be the first to accept ur apology."Arenas continued, "As a man who's made a mistake or two in life I know...

Comic book movies invariably contain a lot of fighting scenes and, as a result, a lot of punches are obviously thrown.

Most punches are very generic – they’re just part of any given combat situation – but some are more memorable and for varying reasons.

Some punches are just epic – they take every ounce of energy that the respective thrower of said punch has – while some are memorable for failing to have any impact of their target. Others are memorable simply due to the circumstances in which they occur.

Obviously, in such a fight-filled genre, there have been countless examples, so I’ve picked an assortment of the good, the bad and the esoteric to put in to a list (there are some great examples missing, as there are hundreds to choose from and I’ve opted to include a couple of the less obvious examples!).

Here are ten memorable punch scenes in comic book movies…...
