🦸‍♀️ Exclusive: Supergirl's Milly Alcock Brings a New Energy to Kara Zor-El

Every director has a singular vision, even when helming a film that’s part of a larger franchise. In today’s newsletter, we’re featuring interviews with people who may be tweaking fan expectations a bit as well as a review of a movie where such changes may not have worked in the director’s favor.

If you decide to watch Wake Up Dead Man on Netflix this weekend, you may or may not agree with our reviewer’s assessment of the latest Knives Out mystery from Rian Johnson as decidedly less playful and fun. But you’ve got some time before you’ll be able to enjoy the changes in store in Craig Gillespie’s Supergirl or the interesting focus of 28 Days Later: The Bone Temple, which has a new director, Nia DaCosta.

Variety is the spice of life! But only audiences can decide whether the spice is savory or bitter.
