Interview: Mallori Johnson and Angourie Rice Break Down Steal Away

After having its premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), Steal Away is set to hit theatres this Friday. The movie boasts impactful performances from its leads, with Mallori Johnson and Angourie Rice commanding the screen. I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Johnson and Rice about their roles in the film, and they broke everything down for me, including what drew them to the project, the intricacies of the characters, the exploration of the semi-fictional world, and, of course, the dance sequence (which featured live drums).

Season 2 of X-Men ’97 is finally upon us, and I, much like many others, am extremely excited to see what the new season has in store. Ahead of the show’s release, I had the amazing opportunity to chat with Larry Houston about the new season.

As a continuation of the fan-favourite X-Men animated series from the ‘90s, the new series brought back beloved voice actors, along with some new ones, to bring everyone’s fave mutants to life once more.  As an X-Men fan who grew up watching the OG animated series on Saturday mornings with my dad, it’s truly been a joy to see these versions of the characters return in season one.

‘Masters of the Universe’ is Action-Packed Fun – Review

In the 1980s, the animated series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, based on Mattel’s toy line, premiered. Though it ran just two seasons, each had 65 episodes. It spawned the feature-length animated film He-Man and She-Ra: The Secret of the Sword and a 1987 live-action movie starring Dolph Lundgren. While the ‘80s have passed, franchises like He-Man still attract nostalgic attention today. Now, in 2026, a new Masters of the Universe movie arrives, and I’m happy to report that it is qui...

‘Mortal Kombat II’ Levels Up on the Fights and Fatalities – Review

In 2021, fans of the Mortal Kombat video games were treated to a new film. Now, while the film wasn’t exactly well-received as a whole, there were some things viewers could agree on: the action was great, they had a fabulous ensemble cast, and in typical Mortal Kombat fashion, there were some truly gory moments. Now, five years later, we have Mortal Kombat II, which sees the return of Lord Raiden (Tadanobu Asano), Liu Kang (Ludi Lin), Jax (Mehcad Brooks), Sonya Blade (Jessica McNamee), Cole Y...
