“People have been asking me what to expect with this new album, and I just can say, ‘Expect the unexpected,’ ” Tiller told Rolling Stone. “I think the song that came out today is a great example of that.”

A Chinese court formally approved the arrest of pop icon Kris Wu on rape charges on Monday — and Chinese streamers have swiftly responded by deleting the shows in which he appears.
The move comes after Wu was first detained on July 31 on suspicions of rape. The allegations against him first emerged last month after Du Meizhu, 18, accused him on social media of date-raping her while she was drunk, and doing the same to other young women. He denied the charges at the time.
The Chaoyang District People’s Procuratorate in Beijing issued an official statement that it had approved the arrest “after investigation in accordance with the law.”
The case is already being hailed by some commentators in China as a “major event in the history of the Chinese film industry.”
In China, a rape charge will incur a sentence of at minimum three but no more than 10 years in prison,...

Hong Kong’s “Shock Wave 2” out-earned “Wonder Woman 1984” in China in just two days, topping the local box office this weekend with a $51.4 million debut, according to data from Maoyan.
By the end of Christmas Day, “Shock Wave 2” had grossed $28.6 million (RMB187 million), more than the $23 million (RMB151 million) “Wonder Woman” had earned since Dec. 18.
Its opening is nearly triple the Patty Jenkins-directed blockbuster’s China debut of $18.8 million last weekend, and more than 35 times the mere $1.46 million “Wonder Woman” managed to lasso this weekend to come in seventh at the box office.
Meanwhile in North America, “Wonder Woman” opened to $16.7 million from 2,100 cinemas, marking the best opening weekend to date for the region since the Covid-19 pandemic began. Shortly afterwards, the studio announced that it is now fast-tracking development on a third, concluding installment of the franchise that will bring back both director Patty Jenkins and leading lady Gal Gadot.

Chinese production firm Aim Media has licensed the North American rights of director Yang Lina’s “Spring Tide” to distributor China Lion. Smart Cinema, the digital venture by former Wanda executive Jack Gao, has also bought the rights to screen the film on its platform in South Korea.
Yang is an independent documentary maker turned feature film director who is making a trilogy of films about women. “Spring Tide” is the second in that series. It tells a story of family dysfunction in which a woman must deal with the competing demands of her daughter and mother as they all live together in a small apartment. Featuring an all-female cast and starring Hao Lei, it debuted in competition at the Shanghai International Film Festival last year.
Aim Media had intended for the film to screen theatrically sometime between March and May, but when the coronavirus shuttered cinemas, it moved the title straight to streaming.

China’s Cmc Pictures will bring a line-up of five titles to the Cannes virtual market this year, including “Assassin in Red,” a major blockbuster set to hit next Chinese New Year.
The firm will be selling global rights outside of China and Southeast Asia to the fantasy drama directed by Lu Yang and executive produced by Ning Hao (“Crazy Alien”).
The film, whose Mandarin title translates to “Assassinate the Novelist,” tells the story of a man who, in order to save his missing daughter, is tasked with killing a writer whose writing creates a parallel world that begins to interact with the real one.
The title reunites “Brotherhood of Blades II” stars Yang Mi (“Tiny Times”) and Lei Jiayin (“The Longest Day in Chang’an”), alongside Golden Horse Award winner Dong Zijiang (of Jia Zhangke’s “Mountains May Depart” and “Ash is Purest White”).

Fruit Chan’s cinematic efforts in the 21st century have been unequal. Films like “Three Husbands” and “The Midnight After” highlight the reasons he is still considered among the most important Hk filmmakers, while others, almost the opposite. “Kill Time”, unfortunately, falls under the second category.
Based on a novel by Cai Jun, the story unfolds in three different timelines. Xiaomai is a young woman, whose policeman father died a bit before, while trying to save a woman from drowning. Xiaomai is about to get married to Shengzan, a childhood friend, but things take a rather unexpected turn when she stumbles upon Witch Zone, a website whose slogan is “Buy Anything You Want”. The girl decides to buy memories, despite Qianling, her best friend’s nudges not to deal with such shady companies, and ends up owning a purple scarf, that looks exactly the same as the...

The 54th Annual Golden Horse Awards were held today in Taipei. That's the Taiwanese Oscars if you will. Though a female-led comedy called The Bold, the Corrupt, and the Beautiful took the top prizes, the film with the most wins was The Great Buddha+ which took home five. A romantic comedy called See You Tomorrow (the all-star cast includes Tfe favorites Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Takeshi Kaneshiro, and Angelababy) took home most of the 'eye candy' prizes. The family tragedy Old Beast, about a father in court and at war with his kids, also did well.
Curiously Taiwan's Oscar submission Small Talk was eligible last year at this ceremony but wasn't a major player. You can see the whole 2017 ceremony online here but it's not subtitled so good luck! Toward the end of the ceremony Jessica Chastain even shows up to help Ang Lee present Best Actress...

Halfway through both the summer movie season and the year of 2016 as a whole, sequels have been hit or miss. Follow-ups such as Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, X-Men: Apocalypse, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Now You See Me 2 and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows couldn't capture the box office magic of its predecessors. Of course, the biggest movie of the year right now is a sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but last week, a follow-up 13 years in the making, Finding Dory, opened huge with $135 million, breaking Shrek the Third's record for biggest animated opening weekend ($121.6 million). As expected, this forgetful fish staved off three newcomers this weekend, 20th Century Fox's Independence Day: Resurgence, Sony's The Shallows and Stx Entertainment's Free State of Jones, repeating atop the box office with $73.2 million.

When Independence Day hit theaters in 1996, many action fans were drawn to this spectacle because of the shots in the trailers featuring the White House being blown to smithereens. When it was all said and done, Independence Day became the first movie ever to crack $500 million worldwide at the box office, raising the bar for other blockbusters to come over the next two decades. This weekend, the long-awaited sequel Independence Day: Resurgence hits theaters, and we know from the trailers that the destruction will continue. But today, we have a new report that reveals why a particular world landmark was left alone.
Back in May, 20th Century Fox released a series of new posters featuring the destruction of world landmarks such as Paris' Eiffel Tower, London's Big Ben, New York City's Statue of Liberty and Singapore's Esplanade. Today we have a new report from The Huffington Post, which reveals that...

After several weeks of underperforming sequels, including Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, X-Men: Apocalypse, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows, Pixar's Finding Dory helped breathe new life into the summer box office with a whopping $135 million opening weekend. This weekend, the lovable yet forgetful fish squares off against four new movies all opening in wide release, 20th Century Fox's Independence Day: Resurgence, Sony's The Shallows, Stx Entertainment's Free State of Jones and Broad Green Pictures' The Neon Demon. While Independence Day 2 will put up the biggest fight, Finding Dory will most likely prevail at the box office for a second week in a row.
Finding Dory's opening weekend haul breaks Shrek the Third's $121.6 million record as the biggest debut for an animated movie, while also surpassing Toy Story 3's $110.3 million mark for the biggest debut in Pixar history.

Last month, 20th Century Fox released a new clip from Independence Day: Resurgence that featured a glimpse at Brackish Okun (Brent Spiner), one of the many returning characters from the 1996 blockbuster Independence Day. This clip features the good doctor reuniting with President Whitmore (Bill Pullman), who looks surprised to see him, commenting that he's "awake." At the time, we didn't know what Whitmore was referring to, but today we have a new viral video that sheds some light on Dr. Okun's background, and that he's actually been in a coma for the past 20 years.
This video, which debuted on 20th Century Fox's YouTube channel, sheds new light on Dr. Okun, one of the heroes of the War of 1996. This video reveals that Okun graduated from Cal Tech in 1972, and he was recruited for a highly-classified position at Area 51, where his knowledge of the aliens was essential in the humans' victory in the War of 1996.

In just a few short days, the aliens will return to wipe out humanity in 20th Century Fox's upcoming sequel Independence Day: Resurgence. Set 20 years after the original blockbuster Independence Day, this follow-up brings some of your favorite characters from the original back, along with a host of new faces trying to save the world as we know it. While we wait for the June 24 release date, 20th Century Fox has debuted a new clip, while director Roland Emmerich discusses the possibility of a sequel.
The clip, which surfaced on YouTube today, offers a new look at one of the returning Independence Day stars, Brent Spiner as Dr. Brackish Okun. The good doctor is unveiling what he calls the "Okun laser," which he built back in 1994 and is now trying to use to cut open one of the alien ships. If that wasn't enough, we also have a new TV spot and a poster for this sequel below.
At one point during Independence Day 2's lengthy development process, there was talk that director Roland Emmerich was planning on shooting two sequels back-to-back. While that plan was scrapped, the filmmaker recently spoke with Empire, where he teased that this movie is setting up potential sequels, although he doesn't expect fans will have to wait another 20 years for that to happen.
"If it's successful enough, yes, because it's set up for a sequel. In 20 years? No, I wouldn't want to make it with a Zimmer frame!"
We always knew they were coming back. After Independence Day redefined the event movie genre, the next epic chapter delivers global spectacle on an unimaginable scale. Using recovered alien technology, the nations of Earth have collaborated on an immense defense program to protect the planet. But nothing can prepare us for the aliens' advanced and unprecedented force. Only the ingenuity of a few brave men and women can bring our world back from the brink of extinction.
Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch, Vivica A. Fox and Brent Spiner all reprise their roles from the original 1996 blockbuster. New additions to the cast for Independence Day: Resurgence include Liam Hemsworth, Angelababy, Maika Monroe, Sela Ward and Jessie Usher. This highly-anticipated sequel will make summer 2016 one to remember when it explodes onto screens worldwide June 24. The movie will square off against Stx Entertainment's The Free State of Jones when it hits theaters in just a few short weeks.

The “cat is out of the bag” thanks to Earth Space Defense director David Levinson in this new video for 20th Century Fox’s Independence Day: Resurgence. He claims to not be the illustrious actor Jeff Goldblum (1986’s The Fly, Jurassic Park, Independence Day), so stop saying that already, okay?
“Today Earth Space Defense director David Levinson is finally debunking a long-standing conspiracy theory that has persisted since the War of 1996. In this video – which provides irrefutable proof – he and famous Hollywood actor Jeff Goldblum prove once and for all that they are not the same person – despite their uncanny resemblance. Learn the truth now.

This year marks the 20th Anniversary of the 1996 blockbuster Independence Day, which will be celebrated with the release of 20th Century Fox's long-awaited sequel Independence Day: Resurgence, in theaters June 24. Way back in December, the studio launched a viral campaign that explained what happened to Will Smith's character Stephen Hiller, with the studio continually releasing new videos from the Earth Space Defense (Esd), to get fans ready for the sequel. Today, a new video has surfaced, which debunks a conspiracy that has lasted for 20 years.
Today Earth Space Defense director David Levinson is finally debunking a long-standing conspiracy theory that has persisted since the War of 1996. In this video - which provides irrefutable proof - he and famous Hollywood actor Jeff Goldblum prove once and for all that they are not the same person - despite their uncanny resemblance.

'They messed with the wrong planet!' Shouts the tagline of the new Independence Day: Resurgence poster that arrives courtesy of IMAX. This sequel twenty years in the making is coming to the immersive screen format this summer. And it promises to be the epic to end all epics, as it is poised to obliterate the world a second time. This crafty one-sheet repurposes the iconic 'Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima' photo from World War II, giving the image new meaning as an Alien craft the size of the Indian Ocean hovers above our atmosphere.

It's been quite the week for Independence Day fans, with the debut of two new previews along with four posters for the long-awaited sequel Resurgence. With the Memorial Day weekend upon us, 20th Century Fox has released the first clip from this follow-up, reuniting two stars from the original movie, Brent Spiner as Dr. Okun and Bill Pullman as President Whitmore. As you can see in this clip, Dr. Okun emerges from an apparent slumber to shed some new light on alien activity.
This scene, which debuted at the 20th Century Fox YouTube page, also gives us a glimpse at William Fichtner's General Adams, who is seen entering a room filled with monitors showcasing the activity of the aliens they currently have in captivity. Adams mentions that their "screaming" has gotten worse, when Dr. Okun meets President Whitmore again, who comments that he's "awake." We're not sure what the...

Earlier this week, we showed you an extended preview with a slew of new footage from Independence Day: Resurgence, along with posters that showed four of the world's iconic landmarks being destroyed by these alien invaders. With just under one month left until this sequel finally hits theaters, we have a new preview where cast members Jeff Goldblum and Liam Hemsworth shed some new light on the story. The plot is set 20 years after the first movie, where the world finds itself unprepared yet again for an alien attack.
The 20th Century Fox YouTube page debuted this preview, which showcases how the alien technology has advanced even more than what we saw 20 years ago. Jeff Goldblum claims that fans have never seen "world destruction" like this in this epic sequel, while this footage also reveals that one of the alien ships is as big as the entire Atlantic Ocean. We also hear from Liam Hemsworth,...

In one of the early scenes of the 1996 blockbuster Independence Day, massive alien ships were spotted above major cities all over the world, before their eminent attack decimated the planet. 20 years later, the aliens have returned, and it looks like their following a similar pattern, as we see in new posters for this summer's sequel Independence Day: Resurgence, arriving in theaters June 24. These one-sheets tease that four iconic landmarks will crumble when these nefarious aliens return in just under one month.
The posters, which surfaced from the Independence Day Movie Twitter page, feature Paris' Eiffel Tower, London's Big Ben, New York City's Statue of Liberty and Singapore's Esplanade all being destroyed by these alien invaders. We're not quite sure what other world landmarks the aliens will be targeting in this sequel, but it's certainly shaping up to be just as big as its predecessor.

This summer marks the 20th Anniversary of the sci-fi action classic Independence Day, which helped take Will Smith's movie career to the next level. 20th Century Fox is celebrating this milestone by releasing the long-awaited sequel Independence Day: Resurgence, arriving in theaters June 24. Unfortunately, Will Smith doesn't reprise his role as Captain Stephen Hiller, but one original cast member coming back is Jeff Goldblum as David Levinson. A new viral video has surfaced that helps fill in the two-decade gap between the two movies, and it seems Levinson has been keeping quite busy.
The video surfaced from the new viral website WarOf1996.com, which offers a comprehensive timeline for the events that followed the war with the aliens, which has been dubbed the War of 1996. Jeff Goldblum's David Levinson helped lead the Earth Space Defense, in the aftermath of this war, and he's seen in this video discussing...

"As you know, it has taken a huge effort to get a big military base on the moon..." 20th Century Fox has released a viral video for Independence Day: Resurgence that features some of the cast and lots of new footage. The video is designed like a news segment from the "United World News" channel, and first takes a look back at the devastating events of 1996, when the aliens first arrived. Then it jumps ahead to a segment with Jeff Goldblum playing David Levinson, now running "Esd" (Earth Space Defense), who discusses the technology they've borrowed to improve their defense systems. In addition, Jessie Usher as Dylan Hiller, Angelababy as Rain Lao, and Liam Hemsworth as Jake Morrison are also featured. This is pretty cool. Here's the "United World News" viral video for Independence Day: Resurgence, from YouTube: Watch the latest trailer here and the most recent TV spots for ID4: Resurgence here & here,...
