The professional dancer, who stars on the popular BBC series Strictly Come Dancing, addressed fan questions amid her reported split from husband Jordan Wyn-Jones. One fan asked the dancer: "How are you doing?" to which she rather cryptically replied: "I'm OK I think." Another of Karen's followers asked what her favourite book is, leading to her recommending Lighter by Yung Pueblo, a non-fiction book that encourages the reader to "let go of the past", which she labelled her "fav book at the moment" and rated five stars.

As Matthew Vaughn makes the press rounds to promote his upcoming movie “Argylle,” in theaters next February, he’s talked about all sorts of topics, from his burgeoning spy cinematic universe at MARV to time working on the “X-Men” series. So how does Vaughn weigh in on the apparent superhero movie fatigue that’s permeating moviegoing recently? In a new interview with ScreenRant, the director stated that “maybe we all need a little bit of time off from” superhero films, at least until somebody makes one that gets audiences truly excited again.

X-Men: First Class and Kick-Ass, was asked in an interview with Screen Rant whether he would consider returning to the superhero genre.In response, Vaughn explained that he was “freaked out” by the box office failure of The Flash starring Ezra Miller, which he described as a “really good film” that was potentially victim to superhero fatigue.“And so it made me question,” Vaughn said. “I think there’s been so many bad superhero movies as well that it’s like when the Western got, you make so many [that] you get bored of the genre, not because the genre is bad, but because the films are bad.”He added: “I genuinely don’t know what’s happening with the superhero in the sense that, I do think, maybe we all need a little bit of time off from it.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director “Kingsman” director Matthew Vaughn knows a thing or two about bringing comic books to life on the big screen as the filmmaker behind acclaimed outings such as “Kick-Ass” and “X-Men: First Class.” In a recent interview with ScreenRant, the director shared his thoughts on the current era of comic book movies. He said poor visual effects are negatively impacting superhero movies, while also sharing his belief that Marvel needs to take a “less is more” approach. “I genuinely don’t know what’s happening with the superhero [genre] in the sense that, I do think, maybe we all need a little bit of time off from it,” Vaughn said.

Matthew Vaughn is no stranger to the superhero genre being the director of Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class and has a suggestion for Marvel Studios and DC as “superhero fatigue” continues to be a topic of conversation.

Matthew Vaughn had a long conversation with “Happy Sad Confused” this week about his new film “Argylle” and just about everything else he’s done in his career. That includes Vaughn’s aspirations for an MCU-like spy cinematic universe at MARV that combines “Argylle,” the “Kingsman” franchise, and a third franchise he has in the works.

After “Justice League” floundered in production in 2016 and Zack Snyder left the film (and the DCEU), his Snyderverse fell apart. Everyone knows Joss Whedon took over “Justice League” after Snyder left, but as for who would chart the DCEU’s course into the future, there were dozens of rumors over the years of who could have taken over.

Director Matthew Vaughn would love the chance to shake things up in two film franchises that fans hold sacred.

Well, filmmaker Matthew Vaughn just gave up the game-his endgame, really-in a new interview with “Happy Sad Confused” (yes, the gift that keeps on giving this week). The gist of his master plan? It’s ambitious and essentially doing for spies, with his company MARV, what Marvel has done for superheroes: an interconnected universe of espionage franchise, yes, all of his own.

Matthew Vaughn returns to theaters next February with “Argylle,” his latest loony spy feature. But in the build-up to his new film, the director has been candid about his career’s earlier work, particularly a film he walked away from: “X-Men: The Last Stand.” Vaughn was initially scheduled to direct the film, but he bailed on it after concerns about the budget and how fast producers wanted it (ironically, he did the same thing on Marvel’s “Thor” before Kenneth Branagh took over).

Filmmaker Matthew Vaughn (“Kick-Ass”), thus far, has essentially made an entire career out of making spy films, ones arguably much more irreverent than the James Bond movies—a series he seemingly was desperate to be a part of at one point. But then Vaughn came up with the “Kingsman” franchise in 2014 with the first installment, “Kingsman: The Secret Service,” and then basically never looked back.

Halle Berry was reportedly misled about the scope of her role within 2006′s X-Men: The Last Stand, according to director Matthew Vaughn.

Matthew Vaughn is opening up about one of the reasons he had for quitting directing X-Men: The Last Stand. The director revealed during New York Comic Con he left the film after finding out a scheme to get Halle Berry to sign on to reprise her role of Storm by tricking her with a fake script.

Halle Berry was “tricked” into her role in X-Men, claims director Matthew Vaughn.Vaughn directed X Men: First Class and was a writer and producer for X-Men: Days of Future Past. However, he pulled out of directing X-Men: The Last Stand.Vaughn says he saw a new copy of the X-Men script that he claims was longer than the original. It is then alleged a studio executive spoke to him about an additional scene for Berry.

Over the weekend at the New York Comic-Con, filmmaker Matthew Vaughn (“X-Men: First Class”) was doing a panel chat to help promote his upcoming Apple/Universal spy comedy “Argylle” and gave some insight into the casting process for “Kingsman: The Secret Service” as Taron Egerton wasn’t the only up-and-coming talent considered for the lead role.
