JoBlo’s own Chris Bumbray had the chance to watch Flora and Son – the latest music-themed film from director John Carney – at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, and the result was a 9/10 review you can read at This Link. A wider audience will get their chance to see Flora and Son when it reaches Apple TV+ on September 29th, and with that date just a month away a trailer for the film has arrived online. You can check it out in the embed above.

Encouraged by the police to find Max a hobby, Flora tries to...

[Editor’s Note: The following contains spoilers from Episode 1 of “The Miniaturist” miniseries. For a non-spoilery read, check out IndieWire’s review.]
“The Miniaturist” is anything but a run-of-the-mill period drama, and the premiere’s ending proved that. The main currency in PBS’ miniseries is surprise, ranging from the small moments of wonder to the mysterious revelations regarding the miniatures that furnish the dollhouse belonging to new 17th-century Dutch bride Petronella (Anya Taylor-Joy), aka Nella.
The biggest shocker, however, came in the last moments of the episode after elaborate misdirection had been built up. Petronella had arrived in Amsterdam and was greeted, not by her new husband Johannes Brandt (Alex Hassle), but coldly by her strict sister-in-law Marin (Romola Garai). Passive-aggressive behavior, whispered conversations, Johannes avoiding consummating their marriage, and other clues pointed to Johannes possibly preferring his sister’s company over his wife’s. Even busybody Agnes Meermans (Aislín McGuckin) seemed as if she were about to announce the...

I’m back with a little more castings news for Starz’s hotly anticipated adaptation of Diana Gabaldon’s fantasy-romance novel, Outlander. With every new actor or actress that joins the series, the clouds covering this world clear just a little bit more and I can appreciate the story that I’ve yet to delve into. The latest to join the cast are Aislin McGuckin and Liam Carney, both of whom have plenty of experience as stage actors, though McGuckin has done her fair share of television work as well. The two are welcome additions to the cast and I’m looking forward to seeing them join the MacKenzie clan.
According to Access Hollywood, McGuckin will be playing Letitia MacKenzie, the wife of Colum MacKenzie (Gary Lewis), the head of the MacKenzie clan. She’s described as being a strong woman in her own right, which I’m taking to...
