Jason David Frank Ejected From Power Rangers Premiere

Image
Last Wednesday at the red carpet premiere of the new Power Rangers movie , Jason David Frank — the actor who portrayed Tommy Oliver/Green Ranger in the original '90s television series — was unceremoniously booted from the event. What happened?! In the film itself, Frank makes a brief cameo alongside Amy Jo Johnson, the original Kimberly Hart/Pink Ranger. They play citizens of Angel Grove who look up in awe at the Megazord. Making sure to capture the impressive sight, they pull out their cellphones to snap photos and record video. So while watching the film at the premiere, Frank "wanted to get a reaction shot of the audience reacting to Amy and me when our cameo appeared." It was a fine idea; however, security didn't realize who he was or what his intentions were. "Right after our cameo appeared, I got escorted out by security because I had a camera in the movie," Frank explained to The Hollywood Reporter. "I didn't see the end of the movie,

Here’s an Amazing Short that Bridges Prometheus and Alien: Covenant

Image
Fox released a prologue short to Alien: Covenant called The Crossing and in it we find out what happened to Dr. Elisabeth Shaw and David after Prometheus . Now that’s what I call a tease, too bad Alien: Covenant isn’t just this, David and Elizabeth Shaw going after the Engineers. What we see here will only be a small part of Alien: Covenant, with most of the action revolving around the crew of the colony ship Covenant. Now say what you will about the rest of Prometheus (I personally liked the movie), but that ending was very promising and it’s actually what I’m most looking forward to seeing in Covenant, the David and Elizabeth parts. What the hell happened with the Engineers (I’m guessing something bad happened to Elizabeth and David did not take it well) and how does that tie into the Covenant story (they might have landed on the same planet)? Those are questions that will hopefully be answered very soon. Ridley Scott directed this newest installment in the Alien franchise w

Jeff Garlin on His First Comedy Inspiration and New Netflix Movie Handsome

Image
ABC’s The Goldbergs star Jeff Garlin uses his acting, writing, producing and directing talents in the mystery movie Handsome , now streaming on Netflix. Garlin plays a bumbling homicide detective who is sharper than people think. The Chicago-born comic, 54, will also return to his role as Larry David‘s manager on HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm later this year. What sparked the idea for Handsome? It started with talking to the head of Netflix about how much I loved Columbo. We also talked about doing a stand-up special in a unique way. So I was combining a stand­up special with a Columbo-type thing, but I cut the stand-up. You have two sons in real life—James, 20, and Duke, 16. How would you compare your parenting style to your character Murray on The Goldbergs? I am a very loving father and I don’t call my kids names. On the flip side, my kids are the same age as the kids on the show, so when I come home, I say, “Did I leave work? What the heck’s going on?” lt kind of blurs the
