Exclusive: Eva Noblezada and Flula Borg Talk New Film “Luck”

by Sydney Hargrove August 5, 2022
written by Sydney Hargrove

Apple is inviting us to step into the magical “Land Of Luck” to learn a thing or two about life in their newest original film Luck. Featuring a star studded cast of Jane Fonda, Whoopi Goldberg, Simon Pegg, Eva Noblezada and so many more, the story follows Noblezada‘s Sam Greenfield as she is at an incredibly defining moment in her life; aging out of foster care. Through her beautiful relationship work young foster sister Hazel (Adelynn Spoon) we begun to learn a tragic flaw of Sam, her bad luck. From the little disasters she experiences day to day (her toaster not working, leaves blowing into her bedroom) to the bigger things in life that have left her heartbroken, Sam can’t seem to catch a break. That is until she comes across Simon Pegg’s Bob, the Irish talking cat who has a gift for Sam; a lucky coin that might just turn her luck around. When even that goes south, Sam is forced to enter into the magical land of luck in order to turn her luck around, and it’s in that very place that she learns a thing or two that might just change her perspective as well. This brilliant film opens up viewers eyes to so many big themes as well as the sweet little ones that will warm hearts. We sat down with Eva Noblezada and Flula Borg to talk all about Luck! Check it out!

by Joe Henkel August 1, 2022
written by Joe Henkel

Watch High School Musical: The Musical The Series Season 3 now streaming on Disney+!

Corbin Bleu’s success as a Disney star, musician, dancer and actor has been iconic to say the least. In 2006, He starred in High School Musical for one of his most memorable roles as Chad Danforth. After over 14 years since High School Musical 3, Corbin is back as a Wildcat. He returns to the HSM franchise playing himself in High School Musical: The Musical The Series.

The Knockturnal recently interviewed Corbin while he was promoting this new season of HSMTMTS. We talked about the amazing mind and leadership of director Kenny Ortega. Corbin told us about how Kenny helped create this amazing franchise and brought out greatness in the cast. We talked about the friendships he built during the years making these films and the emotional conclusion of HSM 3.

Corbin shared his excitement and optimism for the previous and future seasons of HSMTMTS. He is grateful that the series continues the legacy of the original films, while creating something unique for the current generation. Working on set with this cast of Wildcats was a fantastic experience for Corbin. There was a mutual respect between him and the younger actors, he explained to the Knockturnal. We even tried to get some insider info about the show’s season 3 soundtrack, but he declined to comment on whether he sings in the new season. We’ll have to tune in for the new music and episodes as Corbin and the HSMTMTS cast go to summer camp.

Corbin also told us about how he is proud of the diversity of roles he’s been able to work during his career. His producing, acting in film, his music and theater performances have provided some amazing experiences so far.

HSMTMTS season 3 is now streaming on Disney+ as HSM fans everywhere look forward to Corbin’s return to the franchise.

Exclusive: BJ Novak & Boyd Holbrook Talk ‘Vengeance’

by Dano Nissen August 1, 2022
written by Dano Nissen

There’s a dead white girl in middle of nowhere Texas. 

That’s a trendy podcast tagline if there ever was one. Imagine who would narrate it — a soft-voiced, Ivy-educated, high brow comedic actor sounds about right. Like a BJ Novak.

Well, “Vengeance” satirizes exactly that. Novak stars in, writes and directs (in his feature debut) the film, which is about a New Yorker staff writer leaving the effete cocktail parties of Brooklyn intelligentsia for a conspiracy theory-laden, country music-crooning small town in Texas after he learns about the suspected murder of an ex fling. The excursion turns into a podcast project for the writer, which turns into a reflection on himself, the cultural differences between blue cities and red towns and how the former writes about the latter, and other examinations about media.

Novak stars alongside Boyd Holbrook, best known for playing the no nonsense DEA agent who took down Pablo Escobar in Netflix’s “Narcos.” In “Vengeance,” Holbrook plays the goofy, high-energy brother of the “dead white girl.”

Novak and Holbrook spoke to the Knockturnal about the film. Novak shares some of the Coen brothers films that informed his directorial debut, what it was like having NPR’s Terry Gross cameo, and how he handled the satire sensitively. Holbrook, having grown up in a small town, comments on the authenticity of the film’s depiction of rural life, talks about playing against type and working under a first time director.

“Vengeance” hit theaters July 29.
