After chatting with the Slayers: A Buffyverse Story gang one on one, it was time to check out the panel with a sea of enthusiastic Buffy fans. On stage were co writer/director Christopher Golden and the Slayers cast including Amber Benson (who also co-wrote and co-drected the series), Juliet Landau, newcomer Laya DeLeon Hayes, Charisma Carpenter, Emma Caufield Ford, James Charles Leary, and James Marsters. We were feeling all the feels along with the cast as they talked about what it was like to get the band back together.

It was a delight to hear the whole group talk about stepping back in to the roles they created onscreen (although they couldn’t really speak about the past television series due to the ongoing SAG strike). They were able to record the Audible series all together in the studio which not only made the reunion more poignant but enhanced the performances for each of them.

Slayers: A Buffyverse Story is currently available in Dolby Atmos on Audible here.

What better way to spend the night before Friday the 13th than with the king of horror, Jason Blum! The Paranormal Activity creator brought to New York Comic Con a chilling sneak peek at what scares Blumhouse has in store for fans. Joining Blum were the directors of three of the top upcoming movies from Blumhouse, Totally Killer, Night Swim, and Five NIghts at Freddy’s.

First up, Totally Killer, a comedy horror film directed by Nahnatchka Khan and starring Kiernan Shipka. When a serial killer returns 35 years after their killing spree, 17 year old Jamie (Kiernan Shipka) accidentally goes back in time to 1987, determined to stop the killer before they can start. You can watch Totally Killer currently airing on Prime Video.

Things got serious with the next film, Night Swim, from director Bryce McGuire. Based on McGuire’s 2014 short film, Night Swim is about an evil spirit terrorizing a woman in her pool during a nightly dip. The movie stars Kerry Condon and Wyatt Russell and promises to bravest swimmers afraid to go back in the pool. Night Swim is set to be released by Universal on January 5, 2024.

Last, but certainly not least, was the film everyone seemed to be waiting for. The crowd went wild when they were shown a clip from Five Nights at Freddy’s from director Emma Tammi. Based on the video game series of the same name, Josh Hutcherson stars as a new security guard on the night shift at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. During his first night on the job, he realizes that there more to Freddy’s than meets the eye and starts to unravel the mystery of what really happened at Freddy’s. The movie also stars Mary Stuart Matheson. Five Nights at Freddy’s is coming to movie theaters October 23, 2023 from Universal.

And that’s a wrap! For more Blumhouse news go to Blumhouse.com.

NYCC 2019: Daybreak Panel https://sixdegreesofgeek.com/2019/10/07/nycc-2019-daybreak-panel/ https://sixdegreesofgeek.com/2019/10/07/nycc-2019-daybreak-panel/#respond Mon, 07 Oct 2019 21:21:08 +0000 https://www.whedonopolis.com/?p=51654 What is your "elevator pitch" for Daybreak? "Ferris Bueller on bath salts." "My So-Called Apocalypse." "It's Mad Max meets Zombieland meets Ferris Bueller."

The post NYCC 2019: Daybreak Panel appeared first on Six Degrees of Geek.

The most pleasant surprise of the con thus far has turned out to be the panel for the upcoming Netflix original, Daybreak. First, it stars Colin Ford, who played young Sam Winchester (childhood to teen years) on my fave show, Supernatural. Second it also stars Matthew Broderick and the show pays homage to his most iconic characters from Ferris Bueller to Election. Finally, it is a imaginative mashup of Ferris Bueller meets Mad Max meets The Walking Dead. And there is a pint-size pyromaniac and a ninja… sort of.

Well, don’t just listen to me blather on about it, watch the clips from the panel at NYCC. You’ll see what I mean.

Part 1 – Introductions

Part 2

What is your “elevator pitch” for Daybreak? “Ferris Bueller on bath salts.” “My So-Called Apocalypse.” “It’s Mad Max meets Zombieland meets Ferris Bueller.” Now, go!


Part 3

Can you find your favorite 80’s reference in the show (even Gymkata)? Why, yes! Please note, they are not zombies, they are “ghoulies.” Find out the difference here. Adapting the graphic novel and adding their own spin — check out part 3 and hear how they did it.

Part 4

Matthew Broderick weighs in on working with the teen actors and sharing a little wisdom. Colin Ford talks about reading the script and finding out his character falls for a girl named, “Sam Dean.” And yes, there will be more Supernatural references (even though this one was a coincidence).

Daybreak premieres on Netflix October 24th.

It was a wild time at New York Comic Con 2019 when the team from TNT’s All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite took to the stage. The fans went wild with chants for each of their favorites as Brandi Rhodes, Awesome Kong (Kia Stevens), Nyla Rose, Chris Jericho, Jungle Boy (Jack Perry), and Jon Moxley talked about their new show on TNT.

The theme was throwing out the script and letting the wrestlers tell their own stories and the notion seems to have sparked new passion with the fans. The panel built up to quite the climactic ending when a couple of uninvited guests showed up. Check out or coverage below to see what happened (especially the last clip).

Part 1: The Entrance – Brandi Rhodes, Awesome Kong (Kia Stevens), Nyla Rose, Chris Jericho, Jungle Boy (Jack Perry), and Jon Moxley take to the stage at NYCC 2019.

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

Part 5 – Chaos ensues when uninvited “guests” MJF and Cody Rhodes show and stir up some trouble. Chairs were thrown and, yep, blood was spilled.

Be sure to check out All Elite Wrestling: Dynamite on TNT on Wednesdays at 8pm ET.

It’s Manifest Monday and for every question answered, we find another mystery.  At New York Comic Con this weekend, we asked executive producer Jeff Rake, and series stars, Josh Dallas and Melissa Roxburgh, what is in store for our intrepid survivors of Montego Airways Flight 828 and here is what they had to say…

 

 

 

 

Josh Dallas (Ben) talks about how he approaches portraying the character of Ben and Ben’s search for the truth about what happened to him and the other passengers on Flight 828.  He also touches on the emotional entanglements of returning home to a wife and daughter who have lived without him for 5-1/2 years.

 

Melissa Roxburgh (Michaela) talks about the complications in the two key relationships in Michaela’s life — her brother Ben and her ex-fiance Jared.  She also talks about the audition process and working with co-star, Josh Dallas.

 

At NYCC, EP Jeff Rake talks about the impact of the voices and visions on our intrepid siblings, Ben and Michaela, and their key relationships in their lives.

 

Manfest airs Mondays at 10pm est on NBC.  You can also find it on the NBC website / app, iTunes and Amazon.
