In case you didn’t know, award-winning director Alfonso Cuaron’s most famous recent work is the epic space film Gravity (2013) with wild effects and a somewhat interesting storyline (I saw the film and I’ll leave out my reviews). However, if you were a true die-hard Harry Potter fan, you may be a fan of his. After all, Cuaron is the director of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004). I must say that is my favorite movie of the series. However, the magic almost never happened. Alfonso Cuaron | Image Via IndieWire When Cuaron was first …
Marvel has a history of recruiting some of the coolest celebs to bring their superheroes to life.

Wash Westmoreland’s biographical film shows the story behind the tumultuous relationship and how Colette …

From Ghost Busters: Answer the Call to the Ocean’s Eight movie, people want to see a change. And now it’s happening to books too. Pat Barker, winner of the Booker Prize, has a new book out that completely retells the story of Troy with female characters and narrators.

All I’ve heard lately is the the hype and excitement for new and upcoming movie adaptations. From Crazy Rich Asians in theaters to Jack Ryan on Amazon, the adaptations have been on the rise. And yes, we do love it. One in particular that’s still being talked about two weeks later is Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before.
