"Tell me about the people who came to kill me." Paramount Movies has revealed the official trailer for an action thriller titled The Painter, made by the filmmaker / stunt coordinator Kimani Ray Smith. This is yet another one of these dull action movies being dumped right onto home video / VOD right away. An ex-CIA operative turned painter is thrown back into a dangerous world when a mysterious woman from his past resurfaces. Now exposed and targeted by a relentless killer and a rogue black ops program, he must rely on skills he thought he left behind in a high-stakes game of survival. Charlie Weber stars as Peter, with Jon Voight, Marie Avgeropoulos, Luisa d'Oliveira, Leah Gibson, and Madison Bailey. This looks like the most obvious & generic action plot ever, a must-save-a-girl-by-killing-everyone repeat and nothing else. // Continue Reading ›...

"Joe Pickett", the new mystery TV series, based on author C.J. Box’s book series, starring Michael Dorman as a Wyoming game warden, with David Alan Grier, Julianna Guill, Sharon Lawrence, Paul Sparks, Mustafa Speaks, Skywalker Hughes, Kamyrn Pliva, Patrick Gallagher, Chad Rook, Benjamin Hollingsworth, Leah Gibson and Aadila Dosani, has been canceled after 2 seasons, streaming on Spectrum and Paramount +:

"...a dead body winds up on Joe’s front doorstep as he and his family find themselves in the crosshairs of a larger looming conspiracy.

Mercy, directed by Tony Dean Smith and written by Alex Right, revolves around the life of Afghan war veteran Dr. Michelle Miller, who comes face-to-face with the dreaded Quinn gang while treating Ryan Quinn, the younger brother of the gang’s livewire Sean Quinn. Mercy is a total genre flick, reveling in the cool moments expected from a slick action thriller. The characters are set up pretty quickly without dabbling in too much exposition. The plot can remind one of Die Hard, revamped with a female action heroine. Dr. Michelle Miller, played by Leah Gibson, is a conscientious Afghan war veteran who takes on the Quinn gang after they come looking for Ryan, not knowing who they are up against. On the other side is Sean Quinn, played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers, who has his own issues with his family, which he hopes to sort out by taking out his brother Ryan.

There isn’t much mercy in Mercy but there is a lot of action and stunt in this crime thriller set in a hospital, starring Leah Gibson (Jessica Jones), Jonathan Rhys Meyers (Vikings) and Jon Voight (Coming Home).

Leah Gibson plays a surgeon at Mercy hospital, a former military doctor in the Afghanistan War, who finds herself caught in difficult spot when the wounded son of an Irish mafia leader (Jon Voight) is brought to her hospital, and the Irish mafia seize control of the hospital. As the mafia head and his hot-headed son (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) battle FBI agents guarding the wounded man, the doctor finds herself, and her young son, caught in the crossfire, forcing her to call upon her battlefield past.

There is a Die Hard vibe to Mercy but a little Taken too,...

Die Hard came out thirty-five years ago and we’re still seeing a steady stream of knock-offs rip-offs and cash-ins arriving. Case in point, Mercy, which like last year’s Assault on Va-33 puts a hospital under siege. Can the filmmakers deliver an entertaining action film, or is this, like so many other similar films, Doa?

While serving in Afghanistan Dr. Michelle Miller had her husband turn up as a patient in her field hospital, worse he had a bomb strapped to him. This leads to an agonized, and agonizing, exchange of dialogue “Get out Michelle, somebody’s got to be there for Bobby!” “No, I’m not leaving you!” followed by Frank rolling off the table so his detonation somehow doesn’t kill her.

Now she...

"Can anyone please tell me where my son is being kept?" Paramount has unveiled an official trailer a crime thriller titled Mercy, the latest film from a Vancouver-based filmmaker named Tony Dean Smith. This will be out in theaters along with a digital debut in May not long from now. Leah Gibson stars with Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Jon Voight in this action thriller. An ex-military doctor finds herself in a deadly battle for survival when the Irish mafia seize control of the hospital she's working at. She is forced to rely upon her battle-hardened past and lethal skills after realizing there's no one left to save the day but her. This has an obvious Die Hard-in-a-hospital setup, but switching things up with Leah Gibson as the McClane character with special action skills who has to take out all the bad guys in this one building. Also featuring Sebastien Roberts,...

Safiyah has only been referenced by name so far on Batwoman, but we are finally going to meet the person behind that scary reputation.

Played by Shivaani Ghai (Dominion), the criminal mastermind from the island of Coryana is headed to the CW series in Episode 3 (airing Sunday at 8/7c) — and according to showrunner Caroline Dries, she at first might not appear to be the terrifying Big Bad that Alice has made her out as.

We are in week two of the new Batwoman era and based on actress Javicia Leslie’s performance last week, it should be a fun ride. While the rest of the characters need to find their footing with their new roles in the series, Ryan Wilder should be the “glue” that holds the series together.

What Happened This Week?

This week Batwoman leans heavily into how it was Ryan Wilder’s destiny to be a superhero. A flashback to a prior Halloween shows Ryan, dressed in a cat costume reminiscent of Catwoman, walking down a creepy alley (aren’t they all?) when three thugs attempt to rob her. Unfortunately for Ryan, she has no money or credit cards to steal so the thugs decide to just murder her. The original Batwoman swoops in...

The cast of Batwoman continues to grow as Leah Gibson and Nathan Owens have been cast in recurring roles for season 2. Season 2 of Batwoman has already gone through some major shakeups, with Javicia Leslie being cast as new Batwoman Ryan Wilder, and Shivaani Ghai being cast as season 2 villain Safiyah Sohail. Now, […]

The post ‘Batwoman’ Casts Leah Gibson and Nathan Owens for Season 2 appeared first on Cinelinx | Movies. Games. Geek Culture..

Exclusive: Jessica Jones alumna Leah Gibson and Nathan Owens (Devious Maids) are set for recurring roles on the second season of the CW’s Batwoman. Both will join new lead Javicia Leslie, along with Shivaani Ghai, who also recurs in the superhero series. Season 2 is slated to premiere in January.

Gibson will play Tatiana aka “The Whisper.” She is a skilled assassin, unflappable and cold as ice in the face of danger. She is one of Safiyah’s most important henchwomen and still harbors feelings for her powerful boss.

Owens will portray Ocean, a zen gardner and thinker with a complicated past. A loyal soldier and fighter, Ocean moves to Gotham looking for a new beginning.

As previously announced, Leslie will play new character Ryan Wilder who is about to become Batwoman, succeeding Ruby Rose’s Kate Kane. Batwoman premiered last fall as the first superhero series in television history...

A character that leaves behind a meaningful memory can be quite rare, especially if the character only has a limited amount of time to leave an impression.

Leah Gibson rose to the challenge and captivated the audience with her portrayal of Gina, adding a layer of love to an unmatched character.

Her presence was a breath of fresh air, making us believe that maybe there was a future where things were just wonderful.

Gina Martin also brought some happiness to our favorite leading man, Bellamy Blake. Although Bellamy and the audience weren't lucky enough to keep Gina with us, she still left her own legacy behind.

The time that we got to spend with Gina was an incredible memory, and it symbolized the possibility for more.

Gina's death was also an inspiration for fans to express their frustration with the character offering more than just her relationship with Bellamy.

Gina and Bellamy were lovely,...

The second season of NBC’s Manifest won’t be ready for takeoff until Spring 2020, but fans at New York Comic Con — and now you — were on Sunday given a sneak peek at the family Stone’s new, Flight 828-related crises.

When last we tuned in (what feels like 2,037 days ago!), the bizarre, sudden and watery death of opportunistic time-skipper James Griffin led Ben to form a theory that the passengers, too, have “death dates” — that they are fated to “expire” after the same number of days they were missing. Cal confirmed as much, producing a drawing of his, Ben...

Exclusive: Leah Gibson (Marvel’s Jessica Jones) and Carl Lundstedt (Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger) are set for recurring roles opposite Josh Dallas on the upcoming second season of NBC’s hit missing plane drama series Manifest, from Jeff Rake, Warner Bros. TV, Universal Television and Compari Entertainment.

Clearly influenced by the mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, in Manifest, when Montego Air Flight 828 landed safely after a turbulent but routine flight, the crew and passengers were relieved. Yet in the span of those few hours, the world had aged five years and their friends, families and colleagues, after mourning their loss, had given up hope and moved on. Now, faced with the impossible, they’re all given a second chance. But as their new realities become clear, a deeper mystery unfolds and some of the returned passengers soon realize they may be meant for something greater than they ever thought possible.

Halt and Catch Fire alum Toby Huss has been cast as a series regular and The Oath‘s Katrina Law and Leah Gibson are set for major recurring roles in Sacred Lies (working title), a half-hour drama, that has been given a 10-episode series order by Facebook Watch.

“Marvel’s Jessica Jones” is back for another healthy dose of dark psychological thrills. The first season of the Netflix series focused on the clash between Jessica (Krysten Ritter) and Kilgrave (David Tennant), a conflict rife with history that haunted Jessica everywhere she went. Even though the private detective Defender is on a new case in the new season, the trauma from her past is likely not disappearing anytime soon. The show has never been one to shy away from the dark social issues plaguing society, and from the latest trailer, that looks to continue to be the case in Season 2.

On a more positive note, the second season will be delving deeper into the friendship between Jessica and Trish Walker, a relationship that showrunner Melissa Rosenberg has deemed “the core relationship in the piece.” Rachael Taylor reprises her role as Trish in the new season, joining Carrie-Anne Moss and Eka Darville.

Surprise! Kilgrave is back from the dead. Well, sort of.

Entertainment Weekly has today unveiled a brand new photo from the upcoming second season of Marvel/Netflix’s Jessica Jones, in which Krysten Ritter’s whip-smart private eye stands alongside her long-time adversary, Kilgrave (David Tennant). Further details on the actor’s involvement haven’t been revealed just yet, but we imagine he’ll feature via flashbacks to Jessica’s tormented past. After all, Ritter’s reluctant hero did put an end to Kilgrave’s mind-bending reign of terror – exorcizing her own demons in the process – during the thrilling finale of Jessica Jones season 1.

Chalk that up as speculation for now, as like we said above, plot details are scarce at the moment. Still, if one thing’s for certain, it’s that given the fact that Kilgrave is arguably one of the better Marvel villains across screens both big and small,...

Just like time, the Marvel machine waits for no one.

On the eve of The Defenders pummeling their way onto Netflix (our review), candid photos have emerged from the New York set of Jessica Jones season 2, which is currently playing host to Krysten Ritter, Malcolm Joseph Ducasse (Eka Darville) and David Tennant’s returning Kilgrave.

Proving those earlier rumors to be true, this week brought confirmation that the former Doctor Who star would reprise his villainous role for Jessica Jones season 2, leading to some speculation that Melissa Rosenberg and her team were about to resurrect Kilgrave for another stint in Hell’s Kitchen. But at least based on the gallery below, Tennant’s trickster seems to be haunting Jessica from beyond the grave, and is likely a physical manifestation of her own personal grief for snapping his neck at the tail-end of season 1. Kilgrave left her no choice, of course,...

Jessica Jones is in for a bad case of déjà vu.

David Tennant, who famously and nefariously played Season 1’s Kilgrave (and was just named our Performer of the Week for Broadchurch Season 3), will reprise his role as the mind-warping villain in Season 2 of the Netflix/Marvel drama, EW.com reports.

Kilgrave was last seen in the Season 1 finale, where Krysten Ritter’s titular heroine — spoiler alert! — snapped his neck and killed him.
