This is Evans’s second Netflix movie, following his 2018 horror Apostle, which starred Dan Stevens. The director made his name with the acclaimed 2012 Indonesian martial arts movie The Raid, which was followed by 2014’s The Raid 2. He also co-created and directed much of the highly-praised gang thriller series Gangs of London, which was released by AMC in the US last year.
Lord Of The Rings Star Elijah Wood Shares His Scary 9/11 Story
As part of Empire Magazine’s joint interview between Elijah Wood and Daniel Radcliffe to celebrate the 20th anniversaries of the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter franchises, the Lord of the Rings actor shared a frightening story about the 9/11 terrorist attack.
Wood shared that he was doing press in New York City for The Fellowship of the Ring in September 2001 the day of the attack. Together with his co-stars Orlando Bloom and Sean Bean, he flew out of Newark Airport in New Jersey–right across the Hudson River from New York– and they were in the air as the planes hit the World Trade Center tower.
“The planes hit the buildings while we were in the air,” Wood said. “We looked out the window and could see that one of the buildings was on fire. Then there was an announcement from the pilot that planes had been taken over by terrorists and that the FAA had asked all planes to land. We landed in Cincinnati, where I stayed for about a week, before we could take a flight again. So yeah, I directly experienced it. It was super-surreal and scary.”

Some new video game-themed manga is on the way to the West, courtesy of Viz Media. The company has announced that an Animal Crossing: New Horizons manga will release this fall, as will a new book of essays from Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Vol. 1 Deserted Island Diary, due out on September 14, is Nintendo’s first official book on its popular game of the same name. The book is a Toy Story-like manga that will answer the question: “What do the villagers of Animal Crossing: New Horizons get up to when you’re not around?” Viz teases “goofy gags and silly stories” from the manga, which is part of an ongoing series. Also included are comics on “each” villager, though it’s unclear if that includes every single one included in the game.
The book will also offer “tips and tricks for playing the game in a special bonus section.” New Horizons has proven to be wildly popular, selling more than 31 million copies in less than a year, making it the second-best-selling game on Nintendo Switch.
WWE’s Bo Dallas Still Missing From TV, Reportedly Getting In To Real Estate
“Creative has nothing for you” isn’t just a Highspots Wrestling Network comedy series, it’s also what wrestler Bo Dallas has been hearing from WWE writers for more than a year. The former NXT and 24/7 Champion hasn’t been seen on WWE programming since 2019’s Crown Jewel show, as he prepares for life after wrestling working in real estate.
Recently, Dave Meltzer spoke about the situation on Wrestling Observer Radio. “You know how they say creative has nothing for him,’ Meltzer said (via WrestleTalk). “In his case, that’s actually true. Usually when people say that, it’s something else. I don’t know why he’s never been cut, they never use him. But, they didn’t cut him, and they cut all of those guys that they cut in April. He’s still there, still got a job. No idea what or why or anything. Big mystery.”
Additionally, Meltzer reported that Dallas and fellow WWE wrestler Liv Morgan live on a farm together and have been studying and starting a family real estate business. However, he’s still reportedly getting paid by WWE.
