Hulu’s list of new releases for April 2023 don’t feature many blockbusters, but if we dig a little, I’m sure we can find some gems.
Perhaps the most promising items are on the TV side of things. Tiny Beautiful Things premieres on April 7 and stars Kathryn Hahn as “a floundering writer who becomes a revered advice columnist while her own life is falling apart.” That will be followed by comedy Am I Being Unreasonable? on April 11 and two documentaries: high school football story Algiers, America (April 19) and Tupac Shakur piece Dear Mama (April 22).
The best TV candidate this month, however, is probably Saint X on April 26. This series, told via multiple timelines, “explores and upends the girl-gone-missing genre as it explores how a young woman’s mysterious death during an idyllic Caribbean vacation creates a traumatic ripple effect that eventually pulls her surviving sister into a dangerous pursuit of the truth.

One of the most anticipated television releases of April is coming to Hulu on April 7. “Tiny Beautiful Things” stars Kathryn Hahn as troubled writer Clare. Ironically, she becomes a great advice columnist as her life falls apart. Her marriage is in trouble and her teen daughter hates her. Plus, her writing career is going nowhere. Based on the best-selling collection by Cheryl Strayed, the limited series explores the author’s journey toward healing herself and others.
Check out the “Tiny Beautiful Things” trailer:
Also arriving on Hulu in April is the series adaptation of the best-selling novel “Saint X.” The series is based on Alexis Schaitkin’s novel of the same name and follows a woman’s dangerous pursuit of her older sister’s disappearance on an idyllic Caribbean vacation.

Even if you’ve signed up for every streaming service out there, it can feel monumental when a title moves from one to another. In April, Netflix mainstay “New Girl” moves to Hulu; still streaming, but not where fans are used to finding it — like rearranging the furniture in your apartment and waking up surprised every day that the couch is over there now.
But what’s important is that “New Girl” lives on, now joining Hulu’s own TV and movie library and originals from Freeform, FX, National Geographic, and more. Later in the month, Leila Gerstein’s “Saint X” — based on the novel by Alexis Schaitkin — premieres with three episodes, recounting the story of a young girl found dead during a family vacation and the sister piecing it together years later. Alycia Debnam-Carey, Josh Bonzie, West Duchovny, Jayden Elijah, Bre Francis, Kenlee Anaya Townsend, Betsy Brandt, and Michael Park star.

Though the confusingly named initiative “FX on Hulu” is on its way out, FX is still bringing premium television to Hulu in the meantime.
Hulu’s list of new releases for April 2022 is highlighted by FX limited series Under the Banner of Heaven. This adaptation of the non-fiction book by John Krakauer stars Andrew Garfield as a Mormon police detective whose faith is shaken when investigating a murder involving the church.
It’s not all just FX on the TV side of things for Hulu this month, however. The streamer is debuting second seasons of its series The Hardy Boys (April 6) and Woke (April 8). There isn’t much to report from Hulu’s original movies arm aside from true crime documentary Captive Audience on April 21. But that doc about one family’s 50-year journey for justice sounds like a must-watch.

It’s almost December and you know what that means: it’s Star Wars time. Yes, forget all the arguments about Die Hard being a Christmas movie because the Star Wars franchise has been shockingly consistent with its holiday release schedule. With its list of new releases for December 2021, Disney+ has the latest Star Wars project to drop on or around Christmas.
The Book of Boba Fett is set to premiere on Dec. 29. This spinoff of The Mandalorian will feature Temuera Morrison reprising his role as the galaxy’s most enigmatic bounty hunter, Boba Fett. Following the events of The Mandalorian season 2, Boba and his partner Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) now have a major stake in the galaxy’s criminal underworld, and will do whatever it takes to keep it.

The holiday season is almost here and Amazon Prime is getting in the mood with its list of December 2021 releases. Sure there are the usual Christmas movies to be found but the real gift this month are two big original titles.
The sixth and final season of beloved sci-fi series The Expanse premieres on Dec. 10. Amazon is doing its usual release strategy of three episodes on the premiere day followed by a weekly schedule so there’s still some time to be spent with the crew of the Rocinante. The other big ticket item is the Desi and Lucy biopic Being the Ricardos on Dec. 21. Sure, Aaron Sorkin seems to be completely disinterested in I Love Lucy and Nicole Kidman bears no passing resemblance to the iconic comedienne whatsoever but uh…it’s a movie!

In the latest sign of Donald Trump’s plunging stock as a business brand, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said the city is moving ahead with plans to cancel its business contracts with the Trump Organization including the company’s famous Wollman Skating Rink in Central Park.
“New York City doesn’t do business with insurrectionists,” de Blasio tweeted. “We’re taking steps to Terminate agreements with the Trump Organization to operate the Central Park Carousel, Wollman and Lasker skating rinks, and the Ferry Point Golf Course” in the Bronx.
While city officials have explored ways to exit the agreements since 2015, de Blasio said in an interview with MSNBC that last Wednesday’s deadly and destructive invasion of the U.S. Capitol left no other option. “The city of New York will no longer have anything to do with the Trump Organization,” he said.

Although Disney Plus was initially dismissed by many as merely a digital alternative to owning home releases of the animated classics, its swiftly growing library of content has allowed it to become one of the premiere streaming services currently available. Now, a trailer has arrived to preview the highlights of the new movies and TV shows to be added throughout January, and you can check it out up above.
Films newly available this month include Mary Poppins Returns, a sequel to the beloved ‘60s classic that sees the magical super nanny reappear to the Banks children as adults when she’s most needed, to save them from the spiral of hopelessness and despair into which they’ve fallen.

Disney+ is increasingly becoming a place for rediscovering movies and finding new ones. On that note, one of the more underrated entries in Jim Carrey’s back catalogue, Mr. Popper’s Penguins, is now available on the streaming service.
The film features divorced real estate entrepreneur Tom Popper attempting to attain a promotion by securing the sale of a Central Park restaurant, the area’s sole privately-owned building, only to have his life invaded by a band of penguins left to him by his late father, an explorer who was rarely present during his childhood. Initially attempting to get rid of the unwanted interlopers, he’s forced to keep them when his young son mistakes them for a birthday present, swiftly making up for his frequently forgetting the day in the past. Of course, his attempts to keep his new roommates contained frequently fail, whereupon, to borrow a turn of phrase,...

While it’s just over a year or so old, Disney Plus has picked up a significant number of subscribers as it heads into 2021. Although the big release this month will be WandaVision, the Mouse House are continuing to flesh out the library of content and added eight new movies and television shows on January 1st.
After being removed from Disney+ only a few months ago, The Wolverine is back, presumably as the result of a new licensing deal being agreed upon. The James Mangold-directed picture is one of the stronger entries in the Fox X-Men franchise, and sees Hugh Jackman’s character travel to Japan in an adaptation of a popular 1980s comic story. Although it’ll still be some time before we can watch Logan and company all in one place, we’d expect more Marvel-related films to start appearing on the service in the first half of the year.

Disney Plus has gotten the New Year off to a solid start with a content drop that includes movies like Hugh Jackman’s X-Men spinoff The Wolverine and two underrated Jim Carrey efforts in the form of Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hearts A Who! and Mr. Popper’s Penguins. There’s a lot of other stuff on the way as well, of course, meaning subscribers will be sure to find things to keep themselves entertained. However, as with every month, Disney’s streaming service has lost a few titles as well.
The first film that’s now departed is the 2005 family comedy Cheaper by the Dozen 2, which stars Steven Martin and Bonnie Hunt as a couple with twelve children. The sequel was voted 98th out of the 100 worst movies of the 2000s on Rotten Tomatoes, where it currently sits at an unimpressive 6% rating. Maybe it’s not so bad that this...

2020, cursed year that it was, represented the first turn of the calendar since 2009 that did not feature an entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With its list of new releases for January 2021, Disney+ is set to immediately rectify that. Not only is WandaVision the first new McU installment since 2019’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, it’s the first ever Marvel television show from Marvel Studios’ reordering under content czar Kevin Feige.
WandaVision is set to premiere on Jan. 15 and will feature two beloved McU characters Wanda Maximoff a.k.a. Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and The Vision (Paul Bettany). As the trailers reveal, this series will find Wanda and Vis living in domestic bliss in before discovering all is not what it seems.

And this coming week is no different, as the service is adding a selection of fresh movies and shows, and a few of them are hot titles that you’re not going to want to miss.

Disney Plus is adding a bunch of new titles this January 1st, including two great Jim Carrey family movies that the Mouse House has inherited from 20th Century Fox. Going up on the site on New Year’s Day are a couple of well-received entries in Carrey’s filmography from roughly a decade ago that have nonetheless kind of been forgotten about. Namely, they’re 2008’s Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears a Who! and 2011’s Mr. Popper’s Penguins.
Horton Hears a Who! is an animated adaptation of the classic Dr. Seuss children’s book and stars the actor as Horton, an eccentric elephant living in the jungle who discovers that Whoville exists on a tiny dust speck. He fights to keep the people of the town – led by Mayor Ned McDodd (Steve Carrell) – safe, though his efforts lead to much upheaval. The terrific cast also includes Seth Rogen, Will Arnett, Selena Gomez and Amy Poehler,...

"Be prepared for anything." Disney has revealed an official trailer for an extra campy comedy titled Magic Camp, debuting direct to streaming on Disney+ this weekend. This is the latest fun-for-everyone comedy from filmmaker Mark Waters, the director of Freaky Friday, Mean Girls, Just Like Heaven, The Spiderwick Chronicles, Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, Mr. Popper's Penguins. A group of misfit campers help a down-on-his-luck magician rediscover his love of magic in Magic Camp, a heartwarming comedy about finding joy and confidence in self-acceptance. Adam Devine stars as Andy, who attempts to reboot his love for magic (and for competition) at the camp. This also stars Gillian Jacobs, Aldis Hodge, J.J. Totah, Rochelle Aytes, Rosalind Chao, Michael Hitchcock, Rebecca Metz, and Jeffrey Tambor as the camp's owner Roy Preston. This looks as terribly cheesy and as cliche as expected, but still fun to see a movie about magic. Here's the...

Horrible Bosses 2 is one of those rare instances where the comedy sequel is better than the original. Then again, I wasn't exactly a fan of 2011's Horrible Bosses (my review here). Walking into the sequel I also couldn't tell you much about the first one. I remember the cast included returning stars Jason Bateman, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis as Nick, Dale and Kurt and their "horrible" bosses were Kevin Spacey, Jennifer Aniston and Colin Farrell, all of which but Farrell have returned for the sequel. I wouldn't have been able to tell you whose boss each of them had been, though, but does that even matterc It's a comedy, it's meant to make us laugh and keep us entertained for 90-120 minutes and Horrible Bosses 2 does that, and what makes it better than several comedies I've seen as of late is the fact I'd have no problem...

Sunday Update: Click over for a full recap of SNL with Jim Carrey and Iggy Azalea Original Post: All righty then. Sorry—I know that reference is as painfully dated as this Austin Powers costume. But it's tough not to think about Jim Carrey's best-known roles as we consider the actor's third SNL outing—and, to be honest, to consider how long it's been since he last made a great comedy. 2013's Kick-Ass 2 was a dismal flop. That same year, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone tanked as well. The most charitable thing you can call 2011's Mr. Popper's Penguins is "inoffensive.

If you're interested in an anniversary conversation that really has some bearing on today's film industry, I highly recommend American Cinematographer's recent chat with "Collateral" Dp Dion Beebe. It's been nearly a decade (if you can believe it) since Beebe and Paul Cameron carved out a serious place for digital with that film, earning an American Society of Cinematographers (Asc) nomination in the process. It got me thinking about the history of the industry's acceptance of digital as reflected in the nominations handed out by both the Asc and Academy's cinematography branch over the last 10 years. Academy members were a bit slower on the uptake, as you might recall. Beebe and Cameron were snubbed by the branch despite the Asc nomination. Of course, that was still a dicey time for the technology. The first feature films shot digitally were Lars Von Trier's "The Idiots" and Thomas Vinterberg's "The Celebration,...

We all know that Jim Carrey is a funny guy. With a resume full of projects that range from Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Liar Liar to his work on Saturday Night Live and In Living Color, it's hard to find someone who hasn't been amused by at least one thing he's appeared in. However, as funny as Carrey can be, his filmography isn't without its clunkers, especially lately. With generic and bland bullshit like Fun With Dick And Jane and Mr. Popper's Penguins, it sucks to see him playing...

Warner Bros' animated "The Lego Movie" took first place at the domestic box office this weekend by grossing $69 million, scoring the second biggest opening of all time for the mont of February. Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" still holds the records with a debut of $83.8 million back in 2004. "The Lego Movie" took in another $18.1 million from overseas for a worldwide debut of $87 million. Since the movie cost only $60 million to make, it's already an instant hit and the results justify the studio's decision to begin work on a sequel several weeks ago. In addition to becoming a financial hit, "The Lego Movie" is also one of the best reviewed animated films of all time. It currently has a very impressive 95% fresh rating on RottenTomatoes. Meanwhile, George Clooney's "The Monuments Men" had to settle for second place with $22.7 million. Despite an impressive cast, comprised of Clooney, Matt Damon,...

In just four days, audiences will see the unique building blocks of The Lego Movie come together thanks to the minds of directors Phil Lord & Chris Miller. So far the buzz has been great with a variety of critics calling the film original, funny and offering proof that not every film based on established intellectual property has to be without creativity. And just as Lord & Miller's take on Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs inspired a sequel last year, Warner Bros. is already developing a sequel to The Lego Movie with The Internship and Mr. Popper's Penguins scribe Jared Stern hired to write the animated follow-up. Read on! Stern's previous work doesn't inspire a lot of confidence, but Lord & Miller seem to have crafted a world that has limitless possibilities, much like the toy that inspired the film, so hopefully there's still some magic Stern can create.

A couple months before Benicio Del Toro signed on to play The Collector, we first learned that his character was in Guardians of the Galaxy with the April casting of Ophelia Lovibond. The British actress was said to be playing an "aide" to Del Toro's Collector, but since Lovibond was excluded from Marvel's Comic-Con panel & filming announcement, her own inclusion has been up in the air. Fret not! Ophelia Lovibond has confirmed to InStyle UK magazine that her "first go at sci-fi" will be in Guardians of the Galaxy. "I'm not really allowed to talk about it as it's such a top-secret project," said the Mr. Popper's Penguins actress. "But I'm incredibly excited and I'm still kind of pinching myself." It's speculated that Lovibond's playing The Collector's daughter, Carina Walters. Or, perhaps, Death, the embodiment of the end of life in the Marvel Universe. What do you think? “Guardians of...

While Jim Carrey was never gone, this will be a return to something great for the actor. Taking the role as the batshit crazy Colonel Stars and Stripes is holding me over until Carrey decides that Dumb And Dumber To is the way to go. Honestly, I am down for whatever project he takes on because I love the guy so much. I will admit though I did not see Mr. Popper's Penguins. Did I miss anything terribly important?

So what do Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, Dave Bautista, Michael Rooker and now Ophelia Lovibond have in common? Believe it or not, this grab-bag, eclectic batch of actors constitute the cast of a movie which is shaping up to be a pretty interesting little gamble on behalf of Marvel. Brit actress Lovibond has joined "Guardians Of The Galaxy" aka that-superhero-movie-with-the-talking-raccoon-and-tree. According to THR, she'll be taking the role of The Collector, "who gathers artefacts and beings in the hopes of saving them from a foretold galactic annihilation." Kind of like a futuristic hoarder-curator? Update: That part go scrubbed from the trades, so it's a mystery for now. Anyway, if you're still stuck on who Lovibond is exactly, she's been rising steadily on both sides of the pond, with "Nowhere Boy," "4,3,2,1," "Mr. Popper's Penguins" and "No Strings Attached" amongst the handful of movies you may have seen her in.

As The Hollywood Reporter reveals, Marvel’s forthcoming Guardians of the Galaxy movie recently added English actress Ophelia Lovibond to its slowly growing ensemble cast. Although her supporting role is unknown, her character in the James Gunn-directed adaptation will “play an aide to a being called The Collector, who gathers artifacts and beings in the hopes of saving them from a foretold galactic annihilation.” The Collector, aka Taneleer Tivan, is known as one of the Elders of the Universe and, in the Marvel Comics, didn't have ties to the Guardians of the Galaxy, but interacted with The Avengers and supervillain Thanos, whose inclusion in Guardians has been all but confirmed, when the Mad Titan posed a threat to the Elders. Anyhow, Ophelia Lovibond, 27, has starred in Nowhere Boy, No Strings Attached, Mr. Popper's Penguins, a couple British sitcoms and recently appeared alongside Sam Rockwell in A Single Shot thriller,...

The Hollywood Reporter has learned that Carrey has come aboard Ricky Stanicky, a long in development comedy that has been gestating over at Summit Entertainment. In addition to directing, Oedekerk will also be doing a re-write of the script, which is described as "as an ensemble comedy in the vein of The Hangover,...
