Many moons ago here in the UK the government would use famous faces from TV and cinema to promote road safety to children. Most famously one of the Green Cross Code men – David Prowse – would go on to become the physical presence of Darth Vader. But there’s one advert thought lost to the sands of time. Adam West once visited the UK, donned his Batcape and taught a group of children how to safely cross the road. Now that footage has been found and restored and has been made available online. You can view the short advert in…

The actor has gained quite a reputation for spoiling his movies. He has also admitted that behaviour led to him not being given a script for the upcoming movie to keep the secrets safe. Well now he has released a behind-the-scenes look at a scene from the trailer. It looks…

Perhaps don’t prepare yourselves for a face off between Zachary Quinto and Sonequa Martin-Green just yet! Star Trek, one of the most iconic and…

Whilst most of us are eagerly anticipating the release of Avengers: Infinity War there’s another superhero movie to be excited about.

But in an interview with CNA Lifestyle (via BatmanNews.com) the actor is asked outright whether he is involved with Batman. His response? “Wow, that’s a very difficult question. The answer to that question is ‘no.'” Seems pretty cut and dry to us!…
