"Doesn't matter if you chose to be here or not... all that matters is that we are each other's best hope! AMC has revealed an offiical US trailer for the streaming series Nautilus, a fresh new take on the classic Jules Verne adventure 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea about his aquatic experiences around the world. This first debuted in Australia last year (first trailer here) and is finally out in the US this summer. This series is a re-invention of the classic tale of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea from Jules Verne. Nautilus tells Jules Verne's epic story from Captain Nemo's point of view: an Indian Prince robbed of his birthright and family, a prisoner of the East India Mercantile Company, a man bent on revenge against the forces that have taken everything from him.

The nautical fantasy series Nautilus, a ten-episode Paramount production originally intended for Disney+ in 2023, has found a new home and will premiere on AMC and AMC+ on June 29th.

The fact that all episodes of the ambitious and visually rich series had already wrapped filming made Disney+'s subsequent decision all the more noteworthy when they opted not to release it.

This move, reportedly driven by evolving strategic objectives within the streaming service and a directive to reduce overall expenditures, had a ripple effect across several projects in development or completion.

Alongside Nautilus, this change in direction also resulted in the unexpected vaulting of the Willow series and the cancelation of The Spiderwick Chronicles, leaving creators and audiences alike surprised and disappointed by the platform's change of course.

Following a U.K. debut on Prime Video in October 2024, Nautilus has now been picked up by AMC and AMC+, finally bringing...

Ringo Starr will be releasing a new project on Jan. 10, 2025, and he’s got an all-star team of collaborators to make it the best it can possibly be. Here’s everything we know so far.

Ringo Starr Recruits Alison Krauss For New Album

The Beatles star and former drummer is well on his way to gifting fans with a new country album featuring Alison Krauss. Titled ‘Thankful,’ the album is said to be a second preview of ‘Look Up,’ a collaborative project with T Bone Burnett.

Like its “thankful” name, Starr hopes to inspire and spread positivity with the songs on the album. Apart from producing and co-writing nine of the 11 tracks on the album, the 84-year-old also sings on it alongside Burnett and Kraus.

He previewed the album with the debut track “Time On My Hands,” saying of the song, “I love this track. I wrote it with my producer and engineer,...

The mere mention of Grendel the classic monster from the Old English, Anglo-Saxon era epic poem, Beowulf is enough to unlock a portal buried deep within the brain of every former English student. Since its introduction to the oral tradition, the creature at the heart of Robert D. Krzykowski's cinematic take has captivated the hearts and minds of humans for thousands of years.

So it's no surprise that new details (via The Hollywood Reporter) alongside images from a Collider exclusive reveal that Grendel, as played by Jeff Bridges, is going in a deeply philosophical and darkly fantastical direction; a perfect fit for the Jim Henson Creature Shop's interpretation based on the 1971 John Gardner novel.

What Is Grendel and What Is This Movie Adapted From?

Grendel is largely considered to be a modern classic, a novel that retells the old English epic poem Beowulf from the perspective of the monster,...

The word “epic” gets thrown around a lot, but in the case of Grendel, a live-action retelling of John Gardner’s 1971 novel of the same name, it’s not hyperbole. Writer-director Robert D. Krzykowski adapted the book, a modern classic that retells the old English epic poem Beowulf from the perspective of the monster Grendel, who terrorizes the kingdom of Hrothgar of the Danes for 12 years.

The cast is epic, too, with Jeff Bridges as the titular monster, Bryan Cranston as King Hrothgar, Dave Bautista as the warrior Beowulf and T Bone Burnett as the blind, harp-playing Shaper.

Jim Henson’s Creature Shop is doing the creature work and design. Filming is set to begin in Europe next year.

Palisades Park Pictures is handling international sales; CAA Media Finance and UTA Independent Film Group co-rep rights for North America.

The Hollywood Reporter recently spoke with Krzykowski about Grendel’s deeply...

One Piece has some of the most likable characters in anime. Therefore, it should be no surprise that some antagonists are likable. Several marines, like Garp and Saul, are some of the most charismatic characters in the shonen. These special marines prove that the world of One Piece isn't simply black and white.

The marines are only antagonists because the protagonists are pirates. Many of these Marines mean well and have a strong sense of justice. However, at its core, the Marines are controlled by the World Government, which is a corrupt and evil organization. Yet, several Marines are still extremely likable despite their occupation.

Last year, a Jules Verne-inspired sea adventure series that explores the origins of Captain Nemo was canceled by Disney+. The show, Nautilus, then found a new home at AMC. It will also stream on Prime in the UK and Ireland and on Stan in Australia. Nautilus had already finished shooting when Disney dropped the series as a cost-cutting measure. As stated by CFO Christine McCarthy, “We are in the process of reviewing the content on our Dtc services to align with the strategic changes in our approach to content curation…As a result, we will be removing certain content from our streaming platforms, and currently expect to take an impairment charge of approximately $1.5 to $1.8 billion.” Nautilus has now unleashed a new trailer courtesy of Prime Video, by way of Deadline.

"All that matters is we are each other's best hope!" Streaming service Stan based in Australia has revealed the full official trailer for a new series called Nautilus, arriving to watch in October (though only in the UK & Australia to start). This series is a re-invention of the classic tale of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea from Jules Vern, by modernizing the concept. Nautilus tells Jules Verne's epic story from Captain Nemo's point of view: an Indian Prince robbed of his birthright and family, a prisoner of the East India Mercantile Company and a man bent on revenge against the forces that have taken everything from him. Shazad Latif stars in this series as Captain Nemo, acting as an origin story for the Captain – an Indian prince-turned-crusading scientist. Yes, his submarine is in it, taking him on his adventures and into battles with giant sea creatures - including an eel and squid.

The cancelled Disney+ show Nautilus has been picked up by AMC and will begin airing on the network in 2024. It will also be available to stream on AMC+. Actor Shazad Latif, known for his roles in Star Trek: Discovery and Penny Dreadful, will play the role of Nemo in Nautilus. Nautilus follows Nemo, an Indian Prince seeking revenge against the forces that took everything from him. He discovers a magical underwater world while sailing on board the Nautilus.

The high-profile cancelled Disney+ show Nautilus has found a new streaming home. Based on the Jules Verne novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, the live-action show about the origins of Captain Nemo and his famous submarine, The Nautilus, was cancelled by Disney+ in August as part of the platform's continued cost-cutting measures. At the time, it was confirmed that Nautilus would be looking for a new home.

Now, as confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter,...

Nautilus has a new home. The limited series based on Captain Nemo will now air on AMC and AMC+ after being cancelled by Disney+ in August. The episodes will air sometime next year.

Starring Shazad Latif, Georgia Flood, Thierry Frémont, Pacharo Mzembe, Arlo Green, Tyrone Ngatai, Ling Cooper Tang, Andrew Shaw, Ashan Kumar, Céline Menville, and Kayden Price, the series is based on the infamous character (Latif) from the classic novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne.

Nautilus, the ten-part series inspired by Jules Verne’s beloved Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, has found a new home.

The series has landed at AMC, where it will air in 2024 as well as on AMC+. The move comes after the Disney+ UK commission was axed by the streamer earlier this summer as part of its content removal plan.
