Exclusive: Ollie Mongo, the teenage post-apocalyptic skateboarding zombie who has built a devoted fanbase since his creation as a digital comic series in 2016 now has his wheels aimed for Broadway.

Corey Brunish and Russell Miller of Freedom Theatricals theater collective announced today that they are in development with famed animator Arlene Klasky and co-creator EP Craig Singer on a Broadway-aimed original immersive musical production of Ollie Mongo.

With the actor’s strike finally over, Matthew Lillard can finally talk about the plum role he has in Five Nights at Freddy’s. In a recent THR interview, Lillard mentioned being thrilled about how fans have reacted to the film, noting:

“Being 53 years old — and being around the block a couple times — I have a much deeper sense of appreciation in this moment than I probably have ever had because I didn’t expect it. I realize that these opportunities don’t come around that often. It’s been a really rich, joyful moment because I can sort of sit back and appreciate it on a deeper level.”

Lillard’s character, who has a rich mythology in the game, could well wind-up being a recurring presence in the Five Nights at Freddy’s world, especially with the film such a huge hit in theaters and on Peacock. But, it turns...

Perkin’s 14, a film about cults, murder, and redemption, reached picture lock recently and is currently at Molinare, a post-production house in the UK. During a recent visit to the film’s editing room, director Craig Singer told us that Perkins' 14 is the real deal: all practical effects, a cast filled with non-sag actors and dash of 70’s horror show.

The director’s choice for fresh faces was a conscious decision to enhance the film’s authenticity. These actors have “no baggage” and “aren’t distracting” to the movie going audience who know, for the most part, the big stars are going to live, while the rest of the cast is kindling. With unknowns, the audience might not know who will be knocked off first. The casting also sits in stark contrast to the horror films churned out of Hollywood as of late, littered with name genre actors and...
