Universal Pictures has just announced (via Deadline) release dates – in some cases, new release dates for movies that are shifting around on their schedule – for five upcoming horror films… and every one of them happens to be a Blumhouse production. The movies in question are The Woman in the Yard, Drop, The Black Phone 2, M3GAN 2.0, and Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 – and we’re about to go through them one-by-one.
First up is the thriller The Woman in the Yard, which was once set to reach theatres on January 10, 2025, but was bumped out of that date so the Blumhouse reboot of Wolf Man could move from this October to January 17th. Jaume Collet-Serra is directing the film, which stars Danielle Deadwyler of The Devil to Pay and Till, Okwui Okpokwasili of The Exorcist: Believer and I Am Legend, and Russell Hornsby of The Hate U Give and Fences.

During a recent Emmys FYC conversation in Atlanta with Bmf showrunner Heather Zuhlke, stars Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr., Da’Vinchi, Michole Briana White and Russell Hornsby — who respectively play Big Meech, Terry, and Flenory matriarch and patriarch Lucille and Charles — and executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, who had been less active with the network in recent years after several fallouts, was full of pride and commentary about the Starz drama’s current success and future plans.
There’s no denying that Jackson putting his hip hop fame and street cred behind Power, the series essentially about a drug kingpin named Ghost (Omari Hardwick) who wanted to get out the game and become a respectable businessman, changed the premium network’s fortune. Power reportedly increased Starz’s subscribers base by as much as 40 percent.
From that came three successful spinoffs — Power Book II: Ghost; Power Book III: Raising Kanan and Power Book IV: Force.

The thriller The Woman in the Yard, which is coming our way from Blumhouse Productions, Universal Pictures, and director Jaume Collet-Serra, was once set to reach theatres on January 10, 2025, but it was recently bumped off the Universal release slate entirely to make room for another Blumhouse / Universal collaboration, the Wolf Man reboot directed by Leigh Whannell.

Following the success of Jonathan Demme's "The Silence of the Lambs" in 1991, Hollywood released an eight-year-long tidal wave of serial killer thrillers, each one pulpier than the last. This was the era of "Seven," "Copycat," "Along Came a Spider," "Jennifer 8," "See No Evil," "Eye of the Beholder," "Sliver," "Knight Moves," and any number of others. Right at the end of the decade came Phillip Noyce's 1999 thriller "The Bone Collector," based on the airport novel by Jeffery Deaver. Deaver's original novel was the first of the long-running Lincoln Rhyme series, a series that saw its 16th installment published in 2023. Lincoln Rhyme, thanks to a spinal accident, could not move his body below his neck, and fought crime from his bed, deducting details, looking at pictures, and relying on his team.
In the film adaptation, Denzel Washington played Lincoln Rhyme and Angelina Jolie played his plucky crime fighting partner Amelia Donaghy.

The third season premiere of BMF gathered its biggest audience to date for Starz.
The drama’s March 1 debut racked up 5.1 million cross-platform viewers over its opening weekend. That’s the best performance to date for the series and up by a million viewers over the season two premiere in January 2023 — a nearly 25 percent jump season to season.
As is usually the case with premium cable shows, the vast majority of viewing came away from Bmf’s on-air premiere, which averaged just 250,000 viewers (though that too was up, vs. 170,000 for the season two opener) — only about 5 percent of the three-day total. The 5.1 million figure includes replays and streaming as well, and though Starz (like most other streamers) doesn’t provide detailed streaming data, it’s a safe bet that most of the remaining 4.85 million viewers came via streaming.

Carrying around the label of America’s greatest living actor must be quite a tricky thing to have to do. You’re going about your business, trying to pick interesting projects, keeping yourself challenged. But people watch you and your acting, and want to know you, what makes you tick, how it feels to be one of America’s greatest living actors. Denzel Washington has managed to handle that mantle with grace, and while maintaining a very old-school kind of movie star mystique.
Washington’s endless charisma and ability to be both engagingly ironic and deeply sincere run through his most formative roles, along with a sense of conscience and responsibility – which he’s kicked against from time to time, too. Whichever way he pushes, he’s been malleable enough to find more gold.

MeKai Curtis, who stars as the title character in Starz’s hit series Power Book III: Raising Kanan, has signed with APA for representation in all areas.
The show is a part of the Power franchise that is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, also an APA client. Raising Kanan centers on the rise of drug dealer Kanan Stark, who in the main Power series was played by Jackson but here is played by Curtis.

Mel Gibson (Lethal Weapon), Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (Escape Plan), Brian Van Holt (Joe vs. Carole), and Nora Zehetner (The Right Stuff) star in the serial killer thriller Boneyard, which is currently filming in Las Vegas. The Hollywood Reporter confirms that Asif Akbar (The Commando) is directing the film and crafted the screenplay with Hank Byrd, Vincent E. McDaniel, and Koji Steven Sakai.
Said to be inspired by true events, Boneyard sees Gibson taking on the role of an FBI special agent who, along with the Albuquerque police department, is hunting for a serial killer nicknamed The Bone Collector. The chief of police and one of his officers, however, have a contrary view of the manhunt, believing someone in their own department may be the killer.
It should be noted that, despite the serial killer being called The Bone Collector, this doesn’t have anything to do with the serial killer thriller novel of that title,...

Mo'Nique is back on the small screen! On Feb. 3, the 55-year-old Oscar winner made her highly anticipated debut as Atlanta strip-club owner Goldie on episode five, titled "Moment of Truth," of "Bmf" season two. Though Goldie only appears in a few minutes of the episode, it's clear she means business, and she's not taking any nonsense from anyone - especially Leon.
"When Goldie shows up, either two things is going to happen: something really good will happen or something really not so good will happen," Mo'Nique tells Popsugar. According to Starz, Goldie ends up forming an alliance with Demetrius "Big Meech" (Demetrius "Lil Meech" Flenory Jr.) and Terry "Southwest T" Flenory (Da'Vinchi), helping fuel their migration from Detroit to Atlanta. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out, considering their first interaction wasn't exactly the best.
But despite her character's tough persona, Mo'Nique says Goldie's actions come from a place of love.

The Starz drama Bmf has returned for a second season. The series focuses on Detroit-born brothers Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory (Demetrius “Meech” Flenory Jr.) and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory (Da’Vinchi). As teens, they began selling drugs as a way to become financially free. Eventually, they would build one of the biggest drug organizations in the nation. The brothers came from a loving home. Their parents, Charles (Russell Hornsby) and Lucille (Michole Briana White), were hardworking church-goers who struggled financially.
White says the story of Bmf is extremely important, especially when representing Lucille Flenory in the best way possible.

Bmf centers on the real-life experiences of Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory (Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr.) and Terry “Southwest Tee” Flenory (Da’Vinchi).
