Queens who have been on RuPaul’s Drag Race have a bit of a sisterhood. They’ve generally all met, mingled, and performed with a lot of their TV sisters, and spent countless hours cooped up with a select few as part of their TV experiences, too. That’s why we decided to ask the three stars of HBO’s excellent new…

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases, premieres, current events, or occasionally just our own inscrutable whims. This week: With Black Widow postponed, we’re looking back on the best performances by Scarlett Johansson.

We take no joy in kicking people while they’re down here at The A.V. Club, otherwise we’d be named after something cooler like The Robotics Club or The Yearbook Committee (elitist bullies), so don’t assume that we get any kind of schadenfreude-like enjoyment out of the struggles that are befalling new streaming…

Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, who tested positive for coronavirus back in March, may now have magic blood.

Ramy is one of the better Hulu originals to emerge over the past few years, having couched its layered musings about life as a millennial Muslim in the base, often raunchy tropes of coming-of-age comedies. And, as the trailer for its forthcoming second season makes clear, the A24-produced show’s thoughtful…

There’s something that just feels right about Patti LuPone playing a grand old Hollywood dame. The Broadway legend fits right in as one of the stars of Ryan Murphy’s new Netflix series Hollywood, playing Avis Amberg, wife to the head of Ace Pictures. She’s sexually and maritally frustrated, but through some twists and…

Having found ways to demonstrate the global ubiquity of hoods and wrist-mounted hidden daggers across eras ranging from Ptolemaic Egypt and Classical Greece to 15th Century Italy and 18th Century America, Assassin’s Creed has set its stabby, sometimes-stealthy sights on the late Viking Age for its next entry, the …

Earlier this week, NBCUniversal’s questionably confident brag about the success of Trolls World Tour on VOD platforms (it made $100 million apparently!) set off a thrilling burst of movie industry drama, with the studio saying that it would continue to release movies on-demand and in theaters even when the pandemic…

Animal Crossing: idyllic video game pastime or sinister means to indoctrinate our young and impressionable into capitalism’s foundations of debt slavery? We, of course, would never tell our readers what to think—instead, we’ll simply let you be the judge by watching this recent footage of a cruel Animal Crossing…

Thom Yorke released Anima, a “beautiful bummer” of a new album last summer, but the Radiohead frontman is already back with a new single, “Plasticine Figures.” Yorke, who’s also been busy composing for films like Suspiria, debuted the track on Wednesday night’s Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, teasing it out on…

We’re more than a year out from the release of Jurassic World: Dominion, but some asshole has already gone and spoiled it for us. That’s right. Chris Pratt, though a friend to genetically engineered velociraptors, has no respect for humans, who would’ve liked to have the wild plot twists of the latest movie about…

Sarah Wayne Callies has logged time in some of the most noteworthy TV series of the past few decades—mostly notably in The Walking Dead, but also in beloved genre fare like Prison Break and Colony. She’s also starred in big-screen features like The Other Side Of The Door and Into The Storm. Callies’ latest role is far…
