Podcast appearances and mentions of Andy Serkis

Preview for Later Today: Titus Techera reviews Andy Serkis's Animal Farm, which critiques techno-capitalism instead of Soviet totalitarianism. The film portrays Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence as modern villains, reflecting contemporary fears of corporate and technological overreach.IDAHO

Romance distópico escrito pelo jornalista britânico George Orwell ganha uma nova versão para o cinema dirigida pelo ator Andy Serkis. O jornalista Júlio Camargo traz mais essa dica cultural.

Welcome to PTBN Pop's Movie Review of The Day! Every weekday we will be reviewing a movie whether it be currently in theaters, featured on streaming or just a film that we hold near and dear to us. On today's episode, Steve Riddle is reviewing “Animal Farm” from 2026 starring Seth Rogen, Gaten Matarazzo, Steve Buscemi, Glenn Close & Andy Serkis.

(00:00:00)

To say that Andy Serkis is good at so many different things is an understatement. He's revolutionized the practice of motion capture, is a genius real-life actor, and does work behind the camera as a director. Serkis joined us to talk about his animated adaptation of George Orwell's Animal Farm. He also shares his thoughts on the impact AI has had on technology in film, and much more.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

The cast for The Batman: Part II is starting to come together, and it already looks like one of the most stacked comic book movie ensembles in recent memory. Robert Pattinson is back as Batman, with major returning players like Andy Serkis, Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, Jayme Lawson, and Gil Perez-Abraham helping carry Matt Reeves' Gotham into its next chapter.In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, Frank breaks down the confirmed cast, the new names joining the sequel, and the biggest question hanging over the movie: who is actually missing? With Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, and Barry Keoghan not currently listed, the conversation turns toward Catwoman, Riddler, Joker, Harvey Dent, and whether all that snowy imagery could be teasing Mr. Freeze.00:00 The Batman: Part II Cast Is Looking StackedFrank opens with the confirmed names and why the missing cast members may be the most interesting part of the update.00:14 Returning Cast From The BatmanRobert Pattinson, Andy Serkis, Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, Jayme Lawson, and Gil Perez-Abraham are discussed as key returning pieces of Reeves' Gotham.00:33 New Cast Members And Mystery RolesSebastian Stan is reportedly tied to Harvey Dent, while Charles Dance, Sebastian Koch, Brian Tyree Henry, and Scarlett Johansson raise major questions.00:51 Missing Names From The First MovieZoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, and Barry Keoghan are not currently listed, which stands out after Joker and Riddler were teased together.01:18 Could Mr. Freeze Be The Big Bad?Frank connects the snowy imagery to Mr. Freeze and explains why the character could fit perfectly into Matt Reeves' grounded Gotham.01:50 Who Will Be The Villain Of The Batman: Part II?The episode closes with speculation about Harvey Dent, Two-Face, Penguin, Joker, Riddler, and Mr. Freeze.The Batman: Part II has a strong returning cast led by Robert Pattinson as Batman, Jeffrey Wright as Jim Gordon, Andy Serkis as Alfred, and Colin Farrell as Penguin.Sebastian Stan reportedly playing Harvey Dent could be a major clue about the sequel's focus, even if he does not become Two-Face right away.Scarlett Johansson, Brian Tyree Henry, and Sebastian Koch are confirmed without roles, making them the biggest sources of speculation.Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, and Barry Keoghan are not currently listed as returning, which is especially notable after the Joker and Riddler tease in the first movie.The snowy imagery surrounding the sequel has Frank wondering if Mr. Freeze could be part of the story.The cast has serious awards pedigree, making The Batman: Part II feel like a major expansion of Matt Reeves' crime-focused Gotham.“Batman Part II cast is looking pretty stacked, but I think it's the missing names that are more interesting.”“Barry Keoghan was specifically teased at the end of the last movie, so I had assumed that he was going to play some part in the next movie.”“Catwoman leaving Gotham makes sense to me, because her whole point was to erase her identity so she could have some freedom.”“We're getting a lot of snowy imagery from different places, so I'm hoping that's teasing Mr. Freeze.”“With this cast, I mean, think about how stacked this cast is. This is an all-star cast.”Subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines for quick breakdowns of the biggest movie, TV, gaming, and comic book news.

Andy Serkis makes an appearance to discuss his new Animal Farm movie, the hunt for Gollum and Planet of the Apes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the 220th edition of Batman-On-Film.com's THE SOCIAL HOUR podcast, BOF's Founder/EIC Bill "Jett" Ramey and Senior BOF Contributor Peter Verra discuss the following: Andy Serkis on THE BATMAN PART II! Matt Reeves is back on social media teasing THE BATMAN PART II!! All the latest on THE BATMAN PART II, witty banter, and more!!!

Welcome back folks to the Man Cave Movie Review, the podcast that reviews the good, the bad, and the ugly of movies for men and women. I'm your host, Jeff Muncy. Thanks for joining us tonight for episode 381, The Prestige. Starring Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Scarlett Johansson, Rebecca Hall, Michael Caine, Piper Paribu and Andy Serkis. It's new enough we didn't want to have spoilers, so we danced around the main details to hopefully entice you to watch this movie. Sit back and listen as Ken and Jeff explain why it's not good to see double.

Animal Farm directed by Andy Serkis and written by Nicholas Stoller is an utter abomination.

Deze aflevering van Nerd Culture is ook te zien op YouTube: https://youtu.be/5mSmcbDnD_wIn deze aflevering van Nerd Culture schuiven Koos en Huey aan voor een show vol sci-fi, fantasy en nostalgie. Van Star Wars en Daredevil: Born Again tot cultklassiekers als The Truman Show en The A-Team, de aflevering zit weer vol uiteenlopende nerdy onderwerpen en stevige discussies. Daarnaast duiken ze in een reeks opvallende ontwikkelingen binnen Hollywood. Zo lijkt Edge of Tomorrow 2 eindelijk werkelijkheid te worden met Tom Cruise en Doug Liman, terwijl Andy Serkis openlijk aast op de rol van Voldemort in HBO’s nieuwe Harry Potter-serie. Ook bespreken ze het overlijden van media-icoon Ted Turner, bizarre spoilerwetten in Japan, nieuwe collectibles en opvallende trailerreleases. Mortal Kombat II Review Huey heeft de nieuwe Mortal Kombat II al gezien, en in deze aflevering bespreekt hij uitgebreid of de sequel daadwerkelijk een stap vooruit is ten opzichte van de reboot uit 2021. De film gooit eindelijk het iconische toernooi volledig open en zet volop in op fanservice, brute fatalities en bekende personages als Johnny Cage, Kitana, Shao Kahn en Baraka. Vooral Karl Urban als Johnny Cage lijkt volgens veel fans een absolute scene stealer te zijn. Tegelijkertijd blijft de film trouw aan de over-the-top videogame roots, inclusief cheesy oneliners, absurde actie en gigantische lore dumps. Huey deelt zijn spoiler-vrije indrukken over de gevechten, de toon van de film en waarom Mortal Kombat II misschien wel de meest “videogame-ass videogamefilm” in jaren is geworden. Andy Serkis hoopt Voldermort te worden in Harry Potter De casting van Lord Voldemort blijft één van de grootste vraagtekens rond HBO’s nieuwe Harry Potter-serie, en inmiddels heeft nóg een opvallende naam interesse getoond: Andy Serkis. De acteur achter iconische rollen als Gollum, Caesar en Snoke zegt zelfs bereid te zijn “zijn neus af te hakken” om de rol van Voldemort te spelen. Het is vooral interessant omdat Serkis precies het soort acteur is dat volledig kan verdwijnen in een personage. Na Ralph Fiennes ligt de lat extreem hoog, maar als iemand ervaring heeft met fysieke transformaties en motion-capture performances, dan is hij het wel. De vraag is nu vooral: kiest HBO voor een bekende naam, of gaan ze juist voor een compleet onverwachte Voldemort?

Spider Noir's New Trailer, DCU Changes, and a trailer for House of the Dragon Season 3Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.The official trailer for Prime Video's Spider-Noir was released on Saturday during Mexico City's CCXP pop culture festival. In addition to showcasing our most significant looks at Nicolas Cage in the role, gumshoe Ben Reilly, alongside glimpses of villains Sandman, Electro, Tombstone and Brendan Gleeson's yet-to-be-named mob boss character, the trailer also emphasized the series availability to stream in true noir black and white, or color which they have dubbed “True-Hue Full Color”. Saturday's CCXP Mexico was also the site for HBO Max's unveiling of a new official teaser trailer for House of the Dragon's third season. In typical Game of Thrones fashion, the one minute 55 second teaser hints at power struggles and with high production value on display seemed to deliver on the cast members and showrunners promises of more battles, blood and, of course, dragons.It's been a little quiet on the DCU front outside of last week's Clayface trailer, but we now have multiple updates on multiple projects in the cooker, or perhaps not. First, James Gunn revealed that the DCU movie The Authority is no longer in active development. First announced in he and Peter Safrans' 2023 DCU announcements, Gunn said the film's script “wasn't there” and that it didn't fit into the larger DCU. And regarding the franchise's streaming output, HBO and DC temporarily removed the Lanterns trailer from all official platforms without explanation, possibly due to a music licensing issue with a Bruce Springsteen track used in the teaser; but the trailer is now live again with the song in question removed and added text indicating an August release for the series.Lionsgate's Michael set the record for biggest opening weekend for a musical biopic with $97M domestically and $217M globally, dethroning The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and surpassing the previous record held by Straight Outta Compton at $60.2M.Paramount has released the first teaser trailer for season 4 of Star Trek Strange New Worlds and announced a release date. The upcoming season premiere will debut globally on July 23. The 10-episode season rolls out weekly on Thursdays through Sept. 24Studios and streamers are currently bidding on a feature adaptation of the Battlefield video games which has Mission Impossible filmmaker Christopher McQuarrie attached to write and direct and Sinners star Michael B. Jordan attached to produce and possibly star.As the final season of Prime Video's The Boys comes to a close, the streamer has confirmed that spin off series Gen V will end with the previously aired season 2 and will not continue for a third season and that series prequel Vought Rising will debut sometime in 2027.AppleTV has announced that season 4 of Ted Lasso will debut on August 5th and have released a first look teaser trailer for the upcoming season.Laura Dern has joined the cast of season 4 of HBO's The White Lotus.In an interview with CinemaHub, Andy Serkis seemingly accidentally revealed that Iman Vellani is in Avengers: Doomsday. He told her “I can't wait to see you in Doomsday” to which she responded immediately “no you can't say that”

For episode 288, I'm joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes on Emmys and TV Topics. This time around, we're talking about Andy Serkis' absolutely baffling take on Animal Farm (reviewed here), as well as double back on The Running Man (reviewed here) now that Myles has caught up on the latter. We also tackle your questions, as well as play some more of the IMDb game. It's an efficient little episode, but a good one in my book...As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 288th one to date (here's to many more). Of course, feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab (here) on the top of the page. Plus, listen to us on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Spotify, and other platforms. More to come each and every single week, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you for listening! 

George Orwell's classic totalitarian critique "Animal Farm" gets a dumbed-down animated big screen incarnation. Yes, the pigs take over the farm, but the metaphors don't fly. The all-star voice cast includes Seth Rogan, Glenn Close, Kieran Culkin and Woody Harrelson but their efforts are for naught. Screenwriter Nicholas Stoller and director Andy Serkis deserve some credit for trying a new approach, but this so-called modernized version of “Animal Farm” isn't for adults who revere Orwell or for kids who couldn't care less. Here's one that won't be shown on airlines anytime soon. "Jaws" meets "Airport" in "Deep Water," the story of a loaded passenger flight that crashes into -you guessed it- shark infested waters. Aaron Eckhart and Sir Ben Kingsley are the captains who accidentally serve up a smorgasbord for hungry carnivores along with the typical disaster movie cliches. If the premise sounds familiar, another movie called “No Way Up” came out two years ago with a nearly identical plot. While it's overly familiar, director Renny Harlin's opus “Deep Water” is impressively filmed. It ain't deep, but disaster movie fans won't mind. Producer John Lasseter may no longer be at Pixar, but his creative fingerprints are all over the wildly imaginative Netflix animated fantasy, "Swapped." Michael B. Jordan and Juno Temple provide the voices of a mammal and a bird who magically swap bodies in a fantastical woodland area. Their experiences change their perspectives, proving that differences are good and that working together makes life better for everyone. It's smart and beautifully animated. "Swapped" is a family film in the best sense, providing thoughtful entertainment that can be enjoyed by all age groups.

Andy Serkis discusses the corrupting nature of power, what Animal Farm says about modern authoritarianism, and whether technology expands or diminishes human creativity.

This week on the pod, Seth and Josh welcome Andy Serkis! Andy talks about growing up in a multicultural family with an Iraqi-Armenian father and British mother, being one of five siblings, and feeling caught between two very different worlds: Middle Eastern adventures and classic British caravan holidays. He also shares incredible stories including spending summers in Baghdad, traveling to places like Syria, Babylon, and Lebanon, and camping under the stars in the desert, his father's narcoleptic tendencies while road tripping, and so much more. Plus, he shares his experiences second-unit directing in The Hobbit trilogy, directing his latest film, Animal Farm, and his upcoming directing venture in The Hunt for Gollum.

The CinemaConvergencePress, influencers, and theater owners flocked to Las Vegas to be wined and dined by Hollywood Studios at this year's CinemaCon, where the event is beginning to feel more and more like a rival to San Diego Comic-Con in its golden years with the deluge of exciting announcements.

Director Christopher Nolan made his mark in the mid-2000s with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, starring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne. But between these two blockbusters, Nolan and Bale teamed up on another project, an adaptation of Christopher Priest's 1995 epistolary novel about two rival magicians in late 1800s England, with Hugh Jackman playing Bale's frenemy. In the mix are Michael Caine, Rebecca Hall, Scarlett Johansson, Piper Perabo, and Andy Serkis, with David Bowie appearing as inventor Nikola Tesla. The modestly budgeted film successfully wowed audiences, earning over $100 million at the box office, and it scored Oscar noms for Best Art Direction and Best Cinematography. Now we're watching very closely to see if The Prestige still holds up twenty years later. Or, perhaps, its tricks no longer fool us… because you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Oh, no! Wrong movie!

Doctor Who is dead and not regenerating any time soon.[1. Photo by Krists Luhaers on Unsplash.] Star Wars is suspended in the bacta tank. Star Trek is redirecting all power to life support. Meanwhile, Netflix struggles to sing life into Narnia, bad philosophers stone Harry Potter, and goblins threaten to overrun all that was good in Middle-earth. But there were some who resisted. When studios keep killing great stories, could fans bring resurrection?

Stephen Burnett Mission update New review of Lightshed by Crystal D. Grant Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild 1. Star Trek and Star Wars are on life support Star Wars—everyone blames Disney, Kathleen Kennedy, streaming. And of course The Acolyte all but ended fan interest in that galaxy. Much ink has been spilled about that, so we needn't do a remake. Star Trek—everyone blames Paramount, Alex Kurtzman, streaming. Recently even Project Hail Mary author Andy Weir called Trek bad. Weir later semi-apologized, but only for a seeming personal slight. And this just in: J.J. Abrams’ company is downsizing and moving. 2. Fantasy lands get slain by corporate orcs Rings of Power stumbles on, seeming to promise a “good orc” plot. Andy Serkis directs The Hunt for Gollum, a dubious “side quest.” Then came the big news that Stephen Colbert is writing another. This second side-quest movie hints at revisiting Fellowship events. As for Colbert, he's arguably an agitator and has no fantasy credits. Meanwhile, no news is bad news re. Netflix's “rock ‘n’ roll” Narnia. Some fans are more optimistic. We wish we could be, but cannot. 3. Solution: fight joyously for stories you love “If you don't like it, don't watch it.” Fair. But it's okay to criticize. Avoid the traps of “blackpilled” cynicism we mentioned last week. Great stories go on, launching from big studios or small creators. Even that trailer from Amazon/MGM's He-Man looks refreshing! But don't lose hope for big franchises either. They may yet return. Next for Ryan Gosling? Star Wars: Starfighter from Shawn Levy. New owners could restore Star Trek and DC. Let's pray for them!

Thanks to AI advances, with little fanfare, we now have universal translators. And suddenly the “curse of Babel” was temporarily lifted. Americans and Japanese conversed with joy about tasty barbecue, patriotism, and the stories we love. But for decades already, people around the world have found the wonder of Japanese-made fiction—manga, anime, games, and beyond. Why do we love these stories?

This Aragorn recast is straight-up torching the internet -- Andy Serkis just confirmed Viggo Mortensen's iconic Strider is getting swapped for a brand-new actor in The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum prequel he's directing, because the story's set way before Fellowship and they want someone younger to chase Gollum across Middle-earth. Yeah the guy who defined brooding ranger energy with one sword swing and a hooded stare is out after two decades of fans swearing no one else could do it -- Serkis swears they're "on the way to finding someone" but the backlash is already nuclear and Leo Woodall rumors are flying while the rest of us just brace for the inevitable "not my Aragorn" meltdown.

In today's Daily Fix:The role of Aragorn, son of Arathorn II, and heir to the Kingdom of Gondor, will be recast in the upcoming film, The Hunt for Gollum. No specific reason was given, however Viggo Mortensen, who played Aragorn in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings film trilogy, did express interest in returning. Andy Serkis, who played Gollum in trilogy and is set to direct this new film, has said casting is already underway for a new actor. In other news, the Dead by Daylight developers have spilled the secret into creating a hit live-service game: don't make a live-service game. Or at least, don't set out to make one, just make a game with a fun gameplay loop, and live-service elements can come later. And finally, we celebrate the anniversary of an oft-forgotten Star Wars game.

Is he better off making Death Star parts in prison with Andy Serkis, or facing the consequences of the Imperial robbery he pulled for chameleon Stellan Skarsgård? And can Senator Mon Mothma (Genevieve O'Reilly) keep footing the bill while Forest Whitaker, Denise Gough, and Kyle Soller follow the money? Join rebels Justin, Arnie, and Stuart for the darker side of Star Wars right now!
