Anthony Anderson Talks Charmin Partnership, New Travel Show W/ His Mom & ‘The Masked Singer’

by Candace Higgins November 17, 2023
written by Candace Higgins

Actor Anthony Anderson sat down with The Knockturnal to talk everything from his travel show with his mother to his new partnership with Charmin.

YOU’VE NEVER SEEN TOLIET PAPER LIKE THIS BEFORE!

Anderson is currently partnering with Charmin on a new take on toilet paper and it’s different! For those with an eye for detail, this design can turn your bathroom decor from clean and classic to clean with an edge. See for yourself: (5:21:21).

Anderson and his mother, Doris Bowman, star in the E! unscripted show Trippin’ with Anthony Anderson and Mama Doris. Among the countries they’ve visited, Italy was on the top of his list.

“In terms of the travel show, Venice, Italy was my favorite place during that six weeks where we were, as I would like to call it now, ‘on the run,’ me and my mom,” Anderson said. “So a production company came and said we have an idea for you guys. Pitched it to me. It was an IP that had been out there already. So, fish out of water, me and my mom for six weeks in Europe? Why not?!”

Anderson was on ABC’s Black-ish for eight seasons.

He is set to host a musical game show on FOX with his mother.

Director Garth Davis Talks New Movie ‘Foe’

by Candace Higgins October 18, 2023
written by Candace Higgins

Where the two worlds of sci-fi and AI collide, Foe follows a married couple living on a dying Earth. Hen (Saoirse Ronan) and Junior (Paul Mescal) farm a secluded piece of land, but their quiet life is thrown into turmoil when an uninvited guest shows up at their door with a startling proposal.

The year is 2065 and people are looking to space as a way to survive. In order to colonize space, the government is funding a recruitment of particular individuals to help build their new spaceship oasis. Cue Terrance (Aaron Pierre), who has been sent down to recruit Junior to trade two years of his life for two years in space. Junior, uninterested, as he is content with his life denies participation but this proposal cannot be refused. Junior caves and the little time left he an Hen have, the pair faces uncertainty about their relationship and future, as Hen is looking for more. Terrance offers them one bit of solace: there will be a flesh-and blood-clone of Junior here on Earth to keep Hen company once the real Junior leaves for space.

The AI Junior almost proves to be too good and when the real Junior returns, the couple must face a tough choice: to take control and change direction or fall asleep at the wheel.

Directed by Garth Davis and based on the novel by Iain Reid, Foe explores themes of self-determination, love, and the preciousness of time.

Foe is currently in theaters.

It Lives Inside: Megan Suri, Betty Gabriel talk new horror

by Candace Higgins October 2, 2023
written by Candace Higgins

Megan Suri, known for her role in “The MisEducation of Bindu,” stars in a new horror, “It Lives Inside.” Suri plays an Indian-American teenager named Sam, struggling with her cultural identity. She has a falling out with her former best friend and, in the process, unwittingly releases a demonic entity that grows stronger by feeding on her loneliness.

Suri, who admittedly loves horror films, jumped to work on this film immediately. From the start, she says working with director and writer Bishal Dutta had been a pleasure due to both having a personal connection to the script. Suri says “It Lives Inside” touches on the nuance pressure to fit in. “I think children of any type of immigrant, especially in the U.S.  would say, there is this weird pressure to conform and I think that’s really a universal experience for any teenager, honestly,” Suri says.

Suri’s character, Sam, often relies on the guidance of her teacher, played by Betty Gabriel. Gabriel plays a dedicated school teacher named Joyce who becomes concerned  about Sam’s ex-best friend’s strange behavior. Her growing concern puts her at risk; proving when you play with fire, you get burned.

Gabriel says, “It’s definitely horror movie. {laughs} It’s definitely incredibly jarring and just really unsettling.”

“It Lives Inside” is currently in theaters.

Award-winning composer Hildur Guđnadóttir on “A Haunting in Venice”

by Candace Higgins September 10, 2023
written by Candace Higgins

Inspired by the novel Hallowe’en Party, director Kenneth Branagh stars in A Haunting in Venice as famed detective Hercule Poirot. Set in eerie, post-World War II Venice on All Hallows’ Eve is a terrifying mystery featuring the return of the celebrated sleuth, Hercule Poirot. Now retired and living in self-imposed exile in the world’s most glamorous city, Poirot reluctantly attends a séance at an old, haunted palazzo. When one of the guests is murdered, he is thrusted into a sinister world of shadows and secrets.

Familiar with Kenneth Branagh’s works, composer Hildur Guðnadóttir jumped on board when asked to join this project. In our interview with her, she gives a preview of how she developed the music score for this film and explains the importance of music in story-telling.

“My beginning point is always to look at what world we are in , in the film, and how the music can best serve the story and the whole universe, in that film,” Guðnadóttir said.

She added, “In a story like ‘A Haunting in Venice,’ it takes on a more … I guess, instead of the score leading the character from in front of the character, it works much more in parallel and from the subconscious mind.”

“It’s all these physiological things about how the way the music works I think with and in connection with storytelling that I find so interesting about writing film scores, is to play with these different ways of hearing and perceiving music and how you can be moved by it in a very different but effective way,” Guðnadóttir said.

“A Haunting in Venice” is set to premiere in theaters September 15, 2023.

‘Star Trek: Prodigy’ Stars Tease Season 1 Finale [Video]

by Candace Higgins November 8, 2022
written by Candace Higgins

New episodes of Star Trek: Prodigy are set to be released October 27th. We sat down with stars Kate Mulgrew, Ella Purnell, and Brett Gray to breakdown the series.

Mulgrew, reprising her role as “Captain Janeway” some 20 years later, provides the voice of “Hologram Janeway.” She said she enjoyed reconnecting with her character and explained the art behind portraying two different versions of Kathryn Janeway. “There are many other things happening within Prodigy, you know I’m not just Hologram Janeway. There’s Vice Admiral Janeway, there’s mirror Janeway. There are many elements of Janeway being illustrated … so I get to work on nuisance and subtly.”

Star Trek: Prodigy follows a motley crew of young aliens who must figure out how to work together while navigating a greater galaxy. Members aboard, Ella Purnell as “Gwyn” and Brett Gray as “Dal,” divulged some of the themes this series tackles as it approaches its second half of season 1.

“There’s so much to get into and top of that Gwyn is complex and I knew this was a show aimed at kids but the writing is just so smart, Purnell said.

“I do think it says about our world that there’s space for more kindness, there’s space more unity, there’s space for more compassion,” Gray added.

Star Trek: Prodigy  is streaming on Paramount+.
