Austin Butler & Cast Talk New Movie ‘Caught Stealing’ [Video]

by OJ Williams August 29, 2025
written by OJ Williams

Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing is a wild plunge into the chaos of pre-gentrified 1990s New York City—a time when the bars were seedy, the alleys dangerous, and trouble lurked around every corner.

On The Scene: Inside of the “Dune: Part Two” Iconic Premiere After Party

by Sydney Hargrove March 4, 2024
written by Sydney Hargrove

On Sunday, at its highly anticipated US premiere, Dolby Atmos technology transported viewers directly onto Arrakis, the desert planet of Dennis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part Two.” The latest installment in the iconic trilogy was an alluring experience from start to finish, and with Dolby and its beyond surround-sound and immersive visuals, it was very easy to feel like you had drifted right into the film. But for many premiere guests, the experience doesn’t end in the theater, and “Dune: Part Two” was no exception.

On The Scene: Experiencing the Dune: Part Two NYC Premiere with Dolby Atmos

by Sydney Hargrove February 27, 2024
written by Sydney Hargrove

When it comes to Denis Villeneuve’s films, and especially his takes on Frank Herbert’s cult-classic “Dune” series, one thing is for certain: they must be experienced in theaters. His 2021 film “Dune: Part One,” and it’s following continuation, “Dune: Part Two” (which will make it’s highly anticipated theatrical release on March 1st) are visual and audial masterpieces that transport viewers onto the desert planet of Arrakis, and there’s no better way to experience that than on the big screen.

When viewing a film like “Dune: Part Two,” where viewers are taken on a journey of such epic proportions, how to view it is key. Last night, the highly-anticipated (and star-studded) US Premiere of the film was presented in Dolby Atmos, a stunning technology that ensures sound can be precisely placed anywhere in a room, even overhead, creating an immersive soundscape that sounds more like real life. It’s a leap forward from surround sound that allows viewers to experience multi-dimensional audio with incredible clarity that brings them deeper into the story. For a film like this, Dolby Atmos creates a revolutionary new experience that makes it feel as if you are standing right beside Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atradies, or Zendaya’s Chani. 

So what does this mean for viewers come March 1st? “Dune” fans can experience the film with the stunning visuals of Dolby Vision and the immersive sound of Dolby Atmos when the film releases. One of the best ways to experience a film with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos is by watching a film at your local Dolby Cinema, which offers guests the best movie-going experience. It unlocks the emotional impact of every film, allowing you to see subtle details and ultra-vivid colors (courtesy of Dolby Vision) and hear sounds come alive all around you (thanks to Dolby Atmos). On top of that, Dolby Cinema also features spacious recliners with clear sight lines. Once you experience films in Dolby Cinema, you won’t want to experience movies any other way afterwards.

Herbert’s iconic novel was split into two parts for Villeneuve’s film saga. Where we left off in the first installment, Paul has just joined Chani and the Fremen on their journey in hopes of bringing peace to Arrakis. The latest installment follows his journey of embracing his fate as the Muad’Dib and avenging the enemies that destroyed his family. Plagued by visions of a detrimental reality, he must choose between fate and love, a near impossible choice. It’s an epic tale of wonder, hope and revenge that must be seen to be believed. 

The film, which is currently the number one rated movie of all time on IMDB,  is jam packed with new and returning stars, including Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet (“Wonka,” “Call Me by Your Name”), Zendaya (“Spider-Man: No Way Home,” “Malcolm & Marie,” “Euphoria”), Rebecca Ferguson (“Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning”), Oscar nominee Josh Brolin (“Avengers: End Game,” “Milk”), Oscar nominee Austin Butler (“Elvis,” “Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood”), Oscar nominee Florence Pugh (“Black Widow,” “Little Women”), Dave Bautista (the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films, “Thor: Love and Thunder”), Oscar winner Christopher Walken (“The Deer Hunter,” “Hairspray”), Léa Seydoux (the “James Bond” franchise and “Crimes of the Future”), Souheila Yacoub (“The Braves,” “Climax”), with Stellan Skarsgård (the “Mamma Mia!” films, “Avengers: Age of Ultron”), with Oscar nominee Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years,” “Assassin’s Creed”), and Oscar winner Javier Bardem (“No Country for Old Men,” “Being the Ricardos”).

The orange carpet, reminiscent of the stunning hues of Arrakis (best-seen in a Dolby Theater!) was graced with appearances by Chalamet, Zendaya, Ferguson, Brolin, Butler, Pugh, Bautista, Walken, Seydoux, Yacoub, Skarsgård, Rampling, and Bardem, along with filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, producers Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Tanya Lapointe, and composer Hans Zimmer.

 

So what can you look forward to with Dolby on release day? Premium, immersive sound like you’ve never experienced before. With Dolby Atmos, you’ll feel transported into the world of Arrakis, as you’ll be placed right in the middle of the action and ultimately connect more deeply to the characters and emotions on screen. So be prepared to sit on the edge of your seat during high-stakes action sequences, as you may notice the sound of an Ornithopter flying overhead or hear the movements of a nearby sandworm.

On The Scene: AppleTV+’s ‘Masters of Air’ premiere with Austin Butler, Callum Turner, Barry Keoghan, Tom Hanks, and Steven Spielberg

by Kinsey Schofield January 14, 2024
written by Kinsey Schofield

Regency Village Theatre in Los Angeles went full old Hollywood glamour for the premiere of AppleTV+’s Masters of the Air! Lightbulbs flashed as big band and jazz played along the step and repeat. The period drama follows the efforts of the 100th Bomb Group of the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. The cast is absolutely killer with superstars like Austin Butler, Callum Turner, and Barry Keoghan leading the pack.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – JANUARY 10: (L-R) Callum Turner, Barry Keoghan and Austin Butler attend the premiere of the Apple TV+ “Masters of the Air” at the Regency Village Theatre on January 10, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. “Masters of the Air” will make its global debut on Apple TV+ on Friday, January 26, 2024.

Saltburn sightings aside, fans were floored to spot executive producers Gary Goetzman, Tom Hanks, and Steven Spielberg pull up. The crowd erupted when they witnessed the Elvis reunion as E (Butler) locked eyes with his old friend Colonel Tom Parker (Hanks) along the red carpet.
Insider the historic theatre, popcorn scent filled the air as you weaved through celebrities like Bo Derek (10) and John Corbett (Sex & The City/And Just Like That…) and veterans and their families that inspired AppleTV+’s Masters of the Air.

Seated, the lights began to dim. Suddenly you heard Woody from Toy Story on the mic… or wait… no. Technically, that was EP, Tom Hanks. Hanks and Spielberg briefly discussed how Masters of the Air came to fruition after continued inspiration via Band of Brothers. Spielberg also credited his father for his latest project.
Hanks introduced the audience to several of the audience members and their family members who inspired the stories of the men portrayed on screen… the audience erupted with applause and stood on their feet to thank the men and their families for their service and sacrifice.
While standing in line for the bathroom, The Knockturnal‘s Kinsey Schofield asked actor John Corbett what he thought of the series. The My Big Fat Greek Wedding stud said the war drama was, “Great!”

(Photo by Eric Charbonneau/Getty Images for Apple TV+)

The series is action-packed, emotional, and riveting… not to mention the all-star cast. It is a must-see. (And I would highly recommend a projector. I will feel completely cheated watching the rest of the series on a television vs. a large movie theatre screen! WOW!)

Masters of the Air officially premieres on January 26, 2024, on AppleTV+. Subscription required.
