DJ Khaled and Mark Wahlberg have been good friends for awhile now, and it looks like they may become co-stars sometime soon, as well. On Wednesday (May 20th), Khaled posted some screenshots of he and his Bostonian buddy on FaceTime, indicating that they were discussing the possibility of working together in the near future. According to Khaled, the actor wants to recruit him for his next big screen project.

“Bless up @markwahlberg,” Khaled wrote on the Instagram post, which also featured a screenshot of Mark FaceTiming with Khaled’s wife, Nicole Tuck, and his eldest son, Asahd. “@markwahlberg was checking on my availability for the next big film,” he continued. “Also checking in wit my famliy thank u. At this moment mark was telling his team KHALED said he’s available anytime for us. Luv always @markwahlberg bless up !”

Although it’s unclear when Mark would even be able to star in another film project, considering most productions have been put on pause indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic, we’d definitely be interested in seeing he and Khaled on screen together. While he’s primarily known for his music, Khaled has in fact dabbled in the acting game here and there. Most recently, he appeared in the third instalment of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s Bad Boys franchise early this year, titled Bad Boys for Life, for which he also served as the curator of the soundtrack. As for Mark, he recently produced and starred in the Netflix film, Spenser Confidential, alongside another music star, Post Malone, in his debut acting role.

Netflix has debuted the trailer for the new film Da 5 Bloods. The movie follows four veterans, Clark Peters, Norm Lewis, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and Delroy Lindo, joined by his son, Jonathan Majors. They return to Vietnam in search of the remains of their squad leader (Chadwick Boseman) and in pursuit of buried treasure.

Directed by Spike Lee, the action-packed movie trailer shows scenes of the four veterans dancing while “Apocalypse Now” plays in the background, as well as flashbacks as young soldiers in a battle scene. Vintage footage flashes between what appears to be the Vietnam War, U.S. protests, and Nixon’s resignation speech, concluding with a fist raised to the sky.

The soldiers are encouraged by Boseman’s character to bury a trunk of gold bars and return to claim the treasure later.

“We’ve been dying for this country from the very get,” says Boseman’s character. “We give this gold to our people.”

Lee produced the film with Lloyd Levin, Beatriz Levin and Jon Kilik as well as executive producers Jonathan Filley, Barry Levine and Mike Bundlie. He also co-wrote the film with Danny Bilson, Paul DeMeo and Kevin Willmott.

Da 5 Bloods cast includes Mélanie Thierry, Paul Walter Hauser, Jasper Pääkkönen, Johnny Trí Nguyễn, Van Veronica Ngo and Jean Reno and is set to premiere on Netflix June 12.

Check out the new trailer below.

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is set to play Black Adam in the upcoming DC Universe origin story. While at home, The Rock has been setting aside time to communicate with his fans and followers around the world. Earlier this week, he hosted a Q&A on IGTV and fans swarmed him with questions. Apparent by his most recent IGTV video, a lot of his fans are curious about his upcoming role as Black Adam.

"As many of you know Black Adam is a supervillain from the world of the DC Universe. [This project] ...has been with me for over 10 years now," The Rock shared. He confirms that the film has been in the works since 2008, but is quick to admit that he's in a much different place now than 10 years ago. "I just wanted to wait for the timing to feel right", he shared. "Now I'm able to bring my own life lessons and philosophies and engrain them in the character," he continued. "There are a lot of deep layers to Black Adam... He started off as a slave, there are a lot of dark elements [to his character]."

How excited am I to play, BLACK ADAM⚡️? Very. I dive into more detail on the “why” and the character’s mythology as well as a few key filmmakers who are ready to bring Black Adam’s story to life as we begin shooting this summer. How do I find balance in my wildly busy life? Easily one of my most asked questions, since finding our balance & wellness is something we all continue to strive for daily in our busy lives. My family. My gym. My pick up truck No “yes” people. And my @teremana ?? Thanks for the great questions. Stay healthy, take care of one another and we’ll pull thru this.

While describing the differences between Superman and Black Adam, The Rock states that "Black Adam is a supervillain, who then became an anti-hero." He also states that their first version of the film will be the origin story which will share with us how Black Adam came to be. 

The Rock seems very excited to make this movie finally happen. Are you guys looking forward to it?

“The Rock” Dwayne Johnson continues his impressive run in blockbuster movie-stardom with the Emily Blunt assisted “Jungle Cruise“. The Disney film, inspired by the theme park attraction of the same name, follows the characters Frank Wolff (Johnson) and Dr. Lily Houghton (Blunt) as they travel through the Amazon to find a tree with magical healing powers. 

Blunt’s character, Houghton, reminds Frank that the tree they are seeking has the power to heal all and that if it falls into the wrong hands it will “awaken great evil”. The Rock’s character, Frank, assures Houghton that he’s been searching for the tree longer than anybody, and reasons with her that she’s, “looking for something that can’t be found”. “You’ve never had the key”, she gently responds while motioning to her necklace. 

The trailer is packed with action and aggressive jungle creatures, however, Disney makes sure to include some comedic-relief as well. We are also introduced to an unnamed villain, who is played by Jesse Plemons. The villain does the most to prevent the heroes from getting to the all-healing tree before him, including launching a rocket at them from his submarine. Remember, they’re in a jungle. 

Announcements of Disney including a gay character in the film made headlines in late 2018, but the movie is only set to release on July 24th, 2020. Will you be checking it out?

It's official, Ben Affleck's reign as The Bat has officially come to an end as production for The Batman (2021) starring Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne began Monday (Jan. 27). This shouldn't come as a surprise for comic book-themed music fans as Warner Bros. and company had revealed that the former Twilight star would be donning the infamous black suit early last year. However, suiting up as one of the world's most coveted superheroes comes an extreme amount of criticism.
