A-Head Of The Game: 'The Walking Dead' Star Norman Reedus Owns Johnny Depp's Severed Head
Going home with the odd prop isn't too out of the ordinary, however if you are a star on AMC's #TheWalkingDead, your choices are usually limited to a rotten arm or a wire-wrapped baseball bat. In possibly the greatest take-home gift ever, series regular #NormanReedus has made off with the zombified head of #JohnnyDepp. No, this isn't from Pirates of the Caribbean 7: The Search For Depp's Career, it is a genuine prop from #RobertKirkman's zombie apocalypse.

Is He 'Harbouring' A Grudge? Ron Perlman Comments On David Harbour's Casting As Hellboy
With an R-rated #Hellboy officially on the way, it is safe to say some blood has been spilled on the set of Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen. We already had two solid films under our belts since 2004, but director #GuillermoDelToro and lead actor #RonPerlman were unceremoniously culled from the future installments. It is up to a new breed of talent to pick up the Hellboy mantle and start from scratch.

Could It Be Anymore Awkward? Why Did Matthew Perry Scrap A Whole Episode Of 'Friends'?
As a nugget of '90s and '00s nostalgia, kooky #comedy #Friends has aged incredibly well. However, even as we sing along to "Smelly Cat," learn the rules of Bamboozled!, and mourn the loss of Dr. Drake Ramoray, a few elements have become somewhat cringeworthy with time.

Holy Hidden Secret Batman: 'The Lego Batman Movie' Had A Christopher Nolan Easter Egg
Time to dig out your toybox and start piecing together those little plastic blocks, because we are looking back at #ChrisMcKay's #LEGOBatman. Some of us were bricking ourselves with excitement, and we certainly weren't left disappointed when a brave and bold Batman movie threw its plastic-fantastic self into cinemas. With more Easter Eggs than religious holiday, it wasn't just forgotten rogues and valuable vehicles from #Batman's past that made an appearance.

Howlett At The Moon: Hugh Jackman Had No Idea That Wolverines Were Real During 'X-Men'
After playing the same character for 17 years, you'd think that any actor would know pretty much everything about the role; however, it sounds like even #HughJackman struggled in his early days as #Wolverine. With a decidedly scrawnier physique and sporting that bouffant hairdo, the original #XMen movie was just a glimpse at the berserker babe we would come to know and love.

Not So Quick(Silver): Fox Plans On Waiting A Long Time Before Recasting Wolverine
In a worrying wave of reboots, films are barely out of cinemas before those blockbuster bigwigs are clawing over its carcass to milk out another few dollars — I'm looking at you Resident Evil. However, where is your franchise without the biggest star?

Stand Under My Umbrella: James Wan Is Already Working On A 'Resident Evil' Reboot Series
For those who already accuse Hollywood of running out of ideas — especially in the horror stakes — you had better turn back now. We might have waited some 30 years for Pennywise to bring his circus of horrors to town, and Danny McBride is currently resurrecting Michael Myers, but to reboot a series when the final film hasn't even made home-release yet is quite a feat.

Pam You Believe It? Pamela Anderson Unveils Her Unrecognizable New Look
Instead of tongues wagging about the latest films to look out for at #Cannes, critics, fans and celebrities were left gawping thanks to a certain Hollywood starlet. #PamelaAnderson's new look certainly (swim) suits her, but the 49-year-old caused a splash with a shocking change from her usual appearance.

Wade Runner 2018: 'Deadpool 2' Set Pictures Show The Return Of Wade Wilson
Deadpool 2 promises to follow in the footsteps of its predecessor and stick a middle finger up at rest of the superhero genre. Bringing back the comedy with Ryan Reynolds and teaming him with the stoic scowl of Josh Brolin, Fox hopes to capitalize on the success of the highest grossing R-rated film of all time with even more fart jokes and dick pics.

Back To The Futurama: David X. Cohen Promises More 'Futurama' Is Coming
Who didn't love Fox's futuristic answer to The Simpsons in Matt Groening's Futurama? Following the wacky adventures of the Planet Express crew and a dimwitted delivery boy frozen for 1,000 years, Futurama became a staple of fast-paced cartoon foolery in the noughties. As Philip J. Fry awoke in the year 3,000, he was faced with Leela the one-eyed cyclops, alcoholic robot Bender, the squid-like Dr. Zoidberg, and a whole host of other madcap misfits. Undoubtedly the thinking man's version of #TheSimpsons, Futurama's peak was arguably better than America's favorite yellow family.

Wildling, You Make My Heart Sing: Showrunners Tease Misery For Brienne And Tormund On 'Game Of Thrones'
It may be death that usually lingers on the wind in HBO's Game of Thrones, but there could be love in the air when the fantasy saga returns next month. While Jon Snow sticking rough 'n' ready Ygritte with his pointy end was once our favorite pairings on the show, fans are now shipping Brienne of Tarth and Tormund Giantsbane as star-crossed lovers to last the ages.

Are You Coming On A 'Slay' Ride? Kevin Smith Is Directing Creepshow- Inspired Christmas Anthology
Oh #KevinSmith, where would cinema be without you? The brash director who brought us the likes of Clerks and Mallrats, was once in the running to direct DC's The Flash, and even named his daughter after Harley Quinn, but now he is heading back to his horror roots for his latest venture.
