Following a sold-out red carpet premiere on May 24th that left audiences laughing, crying, and craving more, the heartfelt dramedy Going Postal is back for one last pilot episode screening.

The glitz and glam of Hollywood captures the attention of Americans starting from an early age. Beyond celebrities' Instagram Stories and red carpet poses, there are actors out there paying their dues and honing their craft in pursuit of a sustainable career or a fulfilling sideline. Submitting to casting calls is a big part of that journey.

Kudos for Sony in their support and passion to re-energize a dormant cult British zombie franchise in Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later and Disney/Pixar in their relentless attempts to try and breakthrough with expensive original fare, that being the $150M Elio.

Locally produced television series "Going Postal" is set to pack the National Infantry Museum's IMAX theater for a second sold-out public screening, highlighting the growing independent film scene in Columbus.

How to Train Your Dragon is now looking at $83.7M after a $26.5M Saturday, -26% from Previews/Friday of $35.6M. That’s higher than where tracking was seeing it ($65M-$75M). Know that only big exhibition (who are never good at forecasting despite having access to advance ticket sales) was gunning for a $100M opening.

William Jackson Harper from “The Good Place” and Wunmi Mosaku from “Loki” are among seven additional actors in the cast of “The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd,” a new prison-break thriller being filmed in Columbus.

While that grade for the Len Wiseman-directed movie is under the franchise’s best in show, John Wick: Chapter 4‘s A, it’s well above the original John Wick‘s B, and in the same great company as John Wick 2 & 3 which also nabbed A-s. Friday for the Ana de Armas movie was $10.65M including previews with Saturday down 8.2% to $8.2M, and Sunday forecasted at $6.1M.

“Playing Dress Up,” created by longtime collaborators Ben Redding and Lucy Werner, is a one-night-only immersive performance, at the Bo Bartlett Center. Special help from the Bartlett Center’s Julie Umberger and Micheal McFalls at CSU, means this isn’t your average gallery event.

G is for Gymnasts is a sight-word book, meaning it contains words you can recognize without sounding them out. The book aims to help kids recognize common words beginning with the letter G. They started with G as an ode to their love of gymnastics.

Disney executives are skipping around the Burbank lot as Lilo & Stitch is catapulting the studio past the $1 billion mark at the domestic box office with a 30% market share. Disney is the first studio to pass that milestone YTD. Excluding 2020, Disney has grossed $1B+ domestically for 20 consecutive years since 2005, the only studio to accomplish this.
