A24's 'Civil War' Movie Trailer Shows a Dystopian Era Filled with Warfare - Watch Now

Kirsten Dunst is nothing if candid and blunt. In a new Marie Claire interview profile about her new film, a political thriller, “Civil War,” but also about her life as a mom in Hollywood, Dunst’s DGAF attitude shined through.

If Alex Garland’s upcoming political thriller, “Civil War,” looks violent, disturbing, and harrowing, you’re not the only one. The film centers on a journey across a dystopian future America and follows a team of military-embedded journalists as they race against time to reach D.C.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Kirsten Dunst said in a new interview with Marie Claire that she’s finally at a stage in her career where she no longer feels “nervous” speaking her mind, adding: “I feel at home sharing everything on set now.” It’s a far cry from the version of Dunst who was on the “Spider-Man” set decades ago. As a young actor, Dunst didn’t have the confidence to speak up when things bothered her. Case in point: Being repeatedly called a “girly-girl” on the “Spider-Man” set.

Belated legacy sequels are still all the rage in Hollywood, and joining the ranks of this trend is “28 Years Later,” the long-overdue sequel to director Danny Boyle’s zombie/rage-virus thriller, “28 Days Later,” and its sequel “28 Weeks Later.” While Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland, who are reuniting for the first time in almost two decades, have teased a third film in the rage virus trilogy, one never materialized until just a few weeks ago when the surprise sequel was announced.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Is television dying? It’s a claim Jon Stewart pushed back on during his return to Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.” Taking pre-show questions from the audience, Stewart was confronted with one viewer who asked about TV in the age of social media. “What do you think about young people getting all of their information and entertainment from social media?” the audience member asked before outright claiming: “TV is dying!” “Is that true?” Stewart answered back. “You still watch TV but you just watch it on your computer [or phone].You understand that’s still TV?

Filmmaker Alex Garland is known for thought-provoking sci-fi films, having written the “28 Days Later” films and the upcoming belated sequel, the kickstart-the-sun space film, “Sunshine,” and directing his own films like “Ex Machina,” “Annihilation,” and more. But lately, particularly with the horror “Men,” Garland surely knows how to rattle the cage of audiences and seems to be doing it more provocatively in his last few films and poking the cultural bear, as it were.
