According to court documents related to his divorce from ex-wife Christine Baumgartner, his legal team also stated the actor “is not involved in any future episodes” of the show.The long “Yellowstone” delay is part-and-parcel of the WGA strike (now settled) and the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike, which has put production on hold for nearly every TV series (and movie) since it began July 14.The “Yellowstone” drama also encompasses Costner and series co-creator Taylor Sheridan, who have reportedly been feuding for a while now, leaving a big question mark as to Costner’s fate on cable’s biggest hit in years.

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.

Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music Note: The conversation that follows took place in September, two weeks before Hamas’ attack on Israel. On Wednesday, veteran music executive Lyor Cohen was honored at the City of Hope’s annual Spirit of Life gala, which raised $4.3 million to improve health equity in cancer care. He made the following remarks as part of his speech: “We came here tonight to eradicate cancer, but wouldn’t it be incredible if we could also eradicate hate. “What happened on October 7th will never be forgotten, the brutality and slaughter of innocent women, children and men only because they were Jewish. It was an act of terrorism and barbarism. That is not open for debate. Many are being held captive. I want them returned to their families. “I am sorry to hijack this special event to express my feelings as a human, just like I do when injustices happen to anyone targeted because of their race, religion or sexual identity. My heart also goes out to the Palestinian people and the region that has to endure unnecessary loss of life. I pray for peace. Will you join me?” Now in his fourth decade in the music industry, Lyor Cohen is one of the top executives of the era, working as an artist manager, label chief and, since 2016, head of music for YouTube.

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.
