If you haven’t seen The Waterdance, which won the Audience and Screenwriting Awards @Sundance.org and the Best First Feature and Screenwriting Spirit Awards from @FilmIndependent.org now would be a great time to check it out!

We could not be more thrilled for the brilliant, talented and philanthropic #SamanthaMorton, who deserves all of this, and more!

How a D.C. Prep-School Kid Became Hollywood’s Most Dependable Bruiser www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/m... Jon is the real deal. We cast him in The Walking Dead as Shane Walsh before we had even found Andrew Lincoln to play Rick Grimes. That's how much he impressed us with his audition!

I thought robots/AI were vegans? Apparently not. futurism.com/anthropic-me...

I really appreciate your very kind words. It’s incumbent upon all of us to pay forward the support we received when we were all starting out. Filmmaking is indeed a team sport!

Thank YOU — everyone was absolutely lovely and asked excellent questions! It was my pleasure.

#RIP #FrancesDoel the unheralded heroine behind so many brilliant careers, who taught us all so much about screenwriting and filmmaking. Thank you, Frances, from all of us Roger Corman grads. We'll never forget you. deadline.com/2025/05/fran...

Thank you so very much!

Thank you to brilliant Forbidden Worlds Film Festival team, the wonderful interviewers and the fantastic audiences! What an absolute blast to spend time with all of you enjoying movies on the Bristol Megascreen. It's truly my idea of the perfect weekend!!

Thank YOU, Jonathan! I had a fabulous time talking with you about TREMORS!

Axios: CEO of one of the world’s leading artificial intelligence labs believes the technology could eliminate 50% of entry-level, white-collar jobs & spike unemployment in the very near future. In a recent survey, 41% of employers said they planned to downsize their workforce by 2030 due to AI.

I love this, thank you to #ForbiddenWorlds, and especially the talented artist @jamesstayte.bsky.social I am so happy to be depicted wearing an #Arsenal kit, for all you #Gooners out there!

It was truly wonderful being honored last evening by the #ForbiddenWorlds #FilmFestival, and to top it off, what a lovely surprise to see Jim and Sigourney on their IMAX screen!

Thank you, I had such a wonderful time, and I am really looking forward to screening #BATTLEBEYONDTHESTARS later today!

Thank you so much! What a great audience for the #ALIENS Directors Cut screening here in Bristol, with huge thanks to the #ForbiddenWorlds team. You are absolutely fantastic!

It’s true! Michael played a character based on my very good friend, the explorer Barry Clifford, whose birthday it is today! en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_C... #HappyBirthdayBarry

#HappyBirthday to #DougHutchinson who played Loony Bin Jim in #PunisherWarZone!

This is not only cool news about the awesome #DanaiGurira, but absolutely well deserved, too!

Then perhaps AI should take a time out.

Remembering #RayLiotta whom we lost 3 years ago today. Liotta was a brilliant actor who played Robbins in our 1994 film, #NoEscape.

This is what it means. Arsenal Women. Champions of Europe. So so proud. ❤️

Brava to the #Arsenal Women, winners of the #UEFA #ChampionsLeague

Amazing recollection — and I still have a bad back from lugging that damn thing around! Allan is incredibly talented.

In his own words, the late #LesDilley talks about working on #TheAbyss www.thewrap.com/les-dilley-o...

#RIP #LesDilley who was nominated for an #Oscar on #TheAbyss. He achieved the impossible on an incredibly challenging shoot while always maintaining his cool. A remarkable man indeed. deadline.com/2025/05/les-...

#MrLoverman, featuring #TWDFamily member Lennie James, is finally making its way to the U.S and Canada this June! James recently won a #BAFTA for his brilliant work in the show so we can't wait to watch it! #FearFamily Read more:

Happy happy birthday to Melissa!!!!

Very cool, and greatly appreciated! #TheWalkingDead #FearTWD

Counting down…and heading over the pond soon! I do hope to see some of you in Bristol next week. In the meantime, have a lovely weekend.

Working on ALLIGATOR was a blast! Having an opportunity to meet the incredibly kind and talented Robert Forster, who starred in the film, was a huge highlight. Working in the LA storm tunnels wearing hip-waders was a bit less so.

Neal was brilliant. And so much fun to be around. I’ll never forget him.

All true!

See you there!!

Another great article on the powerful performance from #FrankDillane in #Urchin deadline.com/2025/05/fran...

From his very first audition for #FearTheWalkingDead it was clear to us that Frank was going to have an absolute fantastic career!

Such a wonderful actor and a great person!

TY!!!🙏

ICYMI: The new trailer for Norman Reedus' new film, #Ballerina, was released a few days ago. We can't wait to see Norman on the big screen! Check it out here, #TWDFamily:

Bill Paxton was one of the greats, as an actor, a friend and a colleague. All of us who had the pleasure of working with Bill will never forget him. I know I certainly won’t. The quality and nuance of his performances were often overlooked because he made them look effortless. Miss you, Bill.

I learned so much about art and culture from Dennis, who was so generous with his time and expertise. And that’s on top of his incredible acting career!

PLEA by @brianmcquery.bsky.social really resonated with me and the approach to the film was not only original, but emotionally powerful. Truly excellent filmmaking across the board. Watch on Amazon Prime, Fawesome TV or @hoopladigital.bsky.social

It was wonderful collaborating on #TheWaterdance with Michael and the late Neal Jimenez.

Happy, happy birthday!

Happy Birthday to #TimRoth who played Emil Blonsky in our 2008 film, #TheIncredibleHulk!

Trust the best in the business, and they’ll deliver for you every time. Imho CGI has not necessarily improved filmmaking except in creating worlds that we couldn’t craft with traditional methods. I still love miniatures and the talented people who build and shoot them!
