Chicago – It’s rare to see a director debut that is nuanced, anarchistic and different, but the high school coming-of-age comedy “The Crusades” – by first-timer Leo Milano – scores with its solid comedic script, unique characters and passionate homage to Chicagoland’s Northwest Burbs, as well as featuring hot actor Rudy Pankow (Netflix’s “Outer Banks”).

The film will be released through Vmi International beginning this Friday, July 7th, and will be available to stream via Apple, Vudu, Amazon, Xfinity and more. Check your provider. There will also be a Chicagoland theatrical run starting July 7th at the historic Pickwick Theatre, click The Crusades for ticket information and showtimes.

"I met a girl... she's gone." Vertical Entertainment has unveiled an official trailer for an indie crime thriller titled No Way Out, formerly known as Whisper, set in Los Angeles. This is debuting in August if anyone is interested in watching. Joey Bicicchi stars as a budding photographer who arrives to L.A. and falls hard for the quirky young woman Tessa, played by Australian singer / actress Maia Mitchell. So far this is the most cliche L.A. plot setup ever, and of course something bad is going to happen next. They are embroiled in a passionate relationship fueled by sex, drugs and risk that quickly reaches a boiling point when she asks him to do something dangerous. The cast also includes Ashley Nicole Williams, Guy Burnet, Katelyn Pippy, Ronnie Gene Blevins, Luke Brandon Field, & Andy Cohen. This looks especially cheesy and so excruciatingly unoriginal it's not even worth watching this trailer.

Vertical Entertainment has picked up North American distribution rights to the action thriller “No Way Out,” directed by Azi Rahman, who is making his feature film debut.

The film turns on a Los Angeles couple embroiled in a passionate relationship fueled by sex, drugs and risk that quickly reaches a boiling point, leading to “drastic and life-altering consequences.” Vertical is planning a day-and-date release of the film on Aug. 12.

“No Way Out” stars Maia Mitchell (“The Last Summer”), Joey Bicicchi (“Tin Soldier”), Guy Burnet (“Oppenheimer”), Ashley Nicole Williams (“Motherland: Fort Salem”), Katelyn Pippy (“9-1-1: Lone Star”) and Ronnie Gene Blevins (“Emancipation”).

“No Way Out” is written and produced by Keith Kjarval of Unified Pictures. Ben Ruffman serves as executive producer and Peter Mosiman is cinematographer.

“New love can often be powerfully addictive, and we were interested in discovering how thin the line between love and addiction can be and how...

These witches will continue working their magic for one final year. Freeform has renewed the Motherland: Fort Salem series for a third and final season.

A supernatural drama, the Motherland: Fort Salem TV show stars Taylor Hickson, Jessica Sutton, Ashley Nicole Williams, Amalia Holm, Demetria McKinney and Lyne Renee. The series is set in an alternate version of present-day America. In this reality, witches ended their persecution 300 years ago by cutting a deal with the United States government to fight for their country. The story follows three young women from basic training in combat magic into terrifying and thrilling early deployment. In this world, the traditional roles of gender and power are flipped with women on the front lines, the fight looming and terrorist threats that are strikingly familiar to our world, but with supernatural tactics and weapons.

Freeform has picked up a third and final season of “Motherland: Fort Salem,” the Disney-owned cable network announced Monday.

“Every time we get to dive back into the world of ‘Motherland: Ford Salem,’ it’s a pleasure and an honor,” series creator Eliot Laurence said in a statement. “I can’t wait to bring season three to the world. We plan to ramp up the insane stakes of the finale with an epic, scary, satisfying ride, all the while getting deeper into witch’s ancient origins. We are so grateful to Freeform for the opportunity, and to our fans — your love is palpable, wait till you see what we have in store.”

The news comes ahead of the Season 2 finale, airing Thursday.

Freeform is bringing another popular series to an end, but this one is getting a final season.

The cabler on Monday picked up Motherland: Fort Salem Season 3, but with the caveat that it would be the final season of the witchy military drama.

“We’re excited to bring Motherland: Fort Salem back for a third season,” Freeform president Tara Duncan said.

“I am grateful to Eliot and the entire Motherland team. They have created a truly immersive mythology that has resonated with fans since day one, and I know this last chapter will continue to deliver.”

News of the end date announcement comes less than a week after the cancellation of Everything's Gonna Be Okay, which got the boot after two seasons.

Freeform has renewed supernatural drama series Motherland: Fort Salem for a third and final season.

News of the series’ third and final season comes just a day before its Season 2 finale, which will air at 10 p.m. Tuesday on Freeform. A battle looms for Fort Salem against witch-hunting group the Camarilla.

Exclusive: Janel Parrish (Pretty Little Liars) and Jonathan Bennett (Mean Girls) have signed on to star in Myles Clohessy’s indie horror film, The Bog.

They join previously announced cast members Mark Ryder (Borgia), Timothy Murphy (Westworld) and Robert Clohessy (Blue Bloods) in the film, which goes into production in Ireland and Scotland in October.

Inspired by haunting true events, The Bog tells the story of two couples, led by a troubled Collette (Parrish), who intertwined through friendship, unknowing infidelity and a tragic family death, decide to take an epic hiking trip into the remote Scottish Highlands to get away from it all, reconnect and stay at one of the secluded ancient cottages that dot the area. What starts as the time of their lives—and a much-needed, doctor-requested couples retreat—quickly spirals out of control for the group of friends in the isolated, harrowing mountain territory. There, they find...

This summer’s San Diego Comic-Con once again invites fans to sit on their couches and enjoy the pop culture extravaganza from the safety of their homes. There is one difference from last year’s virtual event, however: It will be an abbreviated one, taking place over three days, from Friday, July 23 through Sunday, July 25 — but there are still a bevy of TV show panels on the lineup, which will be streaming for free via YouTube.

Note: Yes, there will again be a DC Fandome virtual event this year (on Oct. 16), where in 2020 shows such as The Flash, Titans, Batwoman...

Nothing beats a live Comic-Con with the scream of the audience, the thunder of Hall H, and the social media wattage that shines out of San Diego.

I’ll never forget the first time that Marvel walked the cast of Guardians of the Galaxy from the Hilton over to the Convention Center. The fans went so crazy, you’d think some of The Beatles came back and there was an immediate reunion. Instead, no thanks to the impact of Covid-19, we have the second year of a virtual San Diego Comic-Con.

Paramount’s Snake Eyes: G.I. Origins is the only major theatrical studio offering, although there are Netflix panels for their movies Army of Thieves, the Jean-Claude Van Damme feature The Last Mercenary, and also the indie documentary For Madmen Only: The Stories of Del Close, about the Chicago comedy improv guru.

(Warning: This post contains some minor spoilers for the Season 2 premiere of “Motherland: Form Salem.”)

“Motherland: Fort Salem” returns on Tuesday, and the show that captured imaginations with an all-female witch army continues to see its heroines confront all kinds of monsters in Season 2.

Right off the top, the second season raises a question a lot of fans had at the end of Season 1: Will Tally Craven (Jessica Sutton) stay trapped as an old lady forever? And can she go to War College and become a true witch soldier if she’s physically decades older than her friends in the Bellweather Company?

Don’t worry, old Tally doesn’t stick around forever. But before we get to that, allow us to give you a quick refresher of the Freeform show’s action-packed Season 1 finale.

At the end of the season, Tally became one of the elderly guardians who give...

Motherland: Fort Salem season 1 introduced viewers to an expansive world where witches make up the American military, and followed new recruits Tally (Jessica Sutton), Abigail (Ashley Nicole Williams), and Raelle (Taylor Hickson) as they trained to fight against witchy terrorist cell, The Spree. The witch cadets experienced love, loss, and betrayal while learning to harness their power, and found themselves facing enemies more harrowing than they ever could have imagined.

Everything changed in the explosive season 1 finale. The Spree attacked a stadium during a soccer game to warn the world of witches of impending threat, by hypnotizing the entire crowd to chant “Our ancient enemy has returned,” temporarily ceasing hostilities to get the message out. The Fort Salem witches then came face to face with the witch-hating Camarilla, in an all-out battle that cost the lives of several witches. Tally became a “Biddy” in order to save General Alder, while...

Motherland: Fort Salem will return for its second season next month, and viewers will see five fresh faces on the Freeform drama series. Victor Webster, Mellany Barros, Praneet Akilla, Ess Hödlmoser, and Arlen Aguayo have all been added to the cast of the series which depicts an alternate history following the Salem Witch trials. Taylor Hickson, Jessica Sutton, Ashley Nicole Williams, Amalia Holm, Demetria McKinney, and Lyne Renée star in the series.

In Season 2, Raelle (Hickson), Tally (Sutton) and Abigail (Williams) confront higher stakes, dangerous magic and a new threat from an ancient group of witch hunters, the Camarilla.

The closest thing to sports running on the Freeform cable network since it came under Disney ownership in 2001 might be “Make It Or Break It,” a soapy series about the lives of young gymnasts hoping to get to the Olympics. On Sunday, Freeform will really be taking the field.

Viewers who tune to Freeform looking for “Hunger Games,” “Alice in Wonderland” or one of the movies Freeform typically shows each weekend will at 1 p.m. tomorrow find themselves part of a massive sports play. Freeform will show –of all things — an NFL Wild Card match between the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans. Nickelodeon and Telemundo, two other TV outlets known for things other than sports, will also try football on for size this weekend.

“It’s an experiment. We’ve never done it before,” says Sarah Lindman, senior vice president of content planning and strategy at Freeform, in an interview.

According to VancouverFilm.Net, "Motherland: Fort Salem", the supernatural, episodic military drama TV series, renewed for Season Two, will air new episodes Summer 2021 on Freeform:

Freeform’s part in ESPN’s multi-network “MegaCast” of this Sunday afternoon’s NFL Wild Card game between the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans will include a halftime show hosted by DJ Khaled (watch teaser above) and a “Watch Party” featuring, among others, stars of the cabler’s assorted series.

While ESPN and ABC offer a “traditional” simulcast of the Jan. 10 NFL game, Freeform’s coverage will feature a “Watch Party” during which guests delve into an array of topics (about the game and pop culture) with ESPN’s Jesse Palmer and Maria Taylor — in a multi-window format that always keeps the gridiron action on-screen.

When Walt Disney’s ESPN airs a Wild Card game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Tennessee Titans this Saturday, viewers will be able to get a little bit of everything.

At ease, soldiers! Motherland: Fort Salem will report for duty with all-new episodes in 2021. Freeform announced via YouTube in May that its supernatural hit was renewed for a sophomore season.

The delightfully dark series explores an alternate reality where the women prosecuted during the Salem Witch Trials between 1692 and 1693 form an alliance with the government and take on a crucial role in the US Army. Flash forward to present day, where these women are celebrated as patriots who routinely risk their lives to keep citizens safe from an organization of terrorist witches known as the Spree. Season one follows a group of young cadets through basic training at Fort Salem, including Raelle (Taylor Hickson), Abigail (Ashley Nicole Williams) and Tally (Jessica Sutton). Think of it as Harry Potter meets Full Metal Jacket.

The cadets sharpen their collective powers - and occasionally spar with each other - as they seek admission to the prestigious War College.

It’s a good thing that Motherland: Fort Salem has already been renewed for season 2 because last night’s finale left fans with a lot of questions and the fates of many characters uncertain.
