Concord is shutting down its servers on September 6 and will not be playable after that as its developers “explore” other options for the sci-fi shooter released last month on PS5 and PC. The game struggled to find an audience—never cracking over 1,000 concurrent players on Steam—and quickly became a flop that was…
It was Blue Ruin for me. Jeremy Saulnier is the real deal. The talented filmmaker has crafted a few fantastic thrillers, including Green Room and Murder Party. And now, Jeremy explores the battle between an ex-Marine (Aaron Pierre) and a small-town police department led by Chief Burrows (Don Johnson). Rebel Ridge is a stunning thriller. It is a tense new feature that smartly explores the conflict. And yes, both Johnson and Pierre are excellent here. If you have Netflix, I highly recommend checking this out beginning Friday.
Recently, I had the chance to speak with a man who has long been a cinematic hero. Don Johnson, who gave such an iconic turn as Sonny Crockett in the hit series Miami Vice. Speaking to Don was everything I could have hoped. He discussed working with Saulnier and creating a complex and intriguing character. Mr. Johnson is excellent in Rebel Ridge, and what a joy it was chatting about this terrific thriller.
Next, I spoke with both Jeremy Saulnier and Aaron Pierre. I’ve had the pleasure of chatting with Saulnier before, and frankly, the man always impresses. He opened up about bringing on cinematographer David Gallego. Aaron discussed working with the filmmaker and finding the reality in the situation. It’s a powerful flick, guys, and the cast is all terrific.Rebel Ridge is well worth investing in. Look for it on Netflix this week!

The launch of Season 5 in Diablo IV introduced numerous unique legendary items, many of which completely change how a few of the game’s top meta builds function. While Barbarian is no longer sitting pretty at the top of the pile, Godslayer Crown—a new Unique Helm—ensures the class remains viable. But it’s not solely…

Last week, it was reported that Tom Ortenberg’s Briarcliff Entertainment has purchased Ali Abbasi’s upcoming controversial film The Apprentice, which details Donald Trump’s rise in the real-estate business. Briarcliff has scheduled the film to be released weeks before the U.S. Presidential Election on October 11. Additionally, the studio plans to give the movie an awards push. The upcoming Thunderbolts star, Sebastian Stan, will be taking on the task of playing Trump, and Succession‘s Jeremy Strong will portray Trump’s one-time consigliere, Roy Cohn.
Briarcliff Entertainment has now posted the first footage from The Apprentice on their official social media page with a new clip. In the clip, Jeremy Strong’s Cohn coaches Stan’s Trump on a phone call interview. The post, which features the clip, also has a caption that reads, “Fresh from turn away crowds and standing ovations at the Cannes and Telluride film festivals, THE APPRENTICE, starring Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump, Jeremy Strong as Roy Cohn, and Maria Bakalova as Ivana Trump. #TheApprentice is exclusively in theaters October 11.”
The Apprentice‘s story will follow the era of Trump’s life from his twenties through his late thirties and will “examine his efforts to build his real estate business in New York over the course of the ’70s and ’80s, also digging into his relationship with infamous attorney Roy Cohn.” The film description also adds that the project is “billed as an exploration of power and ambition set in a world of corruption and deceit. It’s a mentor-protege story that charts the origins of an American dynasty.” Alongside Sebastian Stan and Jeremy Strong, Borat 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3‘s Maria Bakalova also signed on to play Ivana Trump.
The project was penned by long-time Vanity Fair Donald Trump chronicler Gabriel Sherman, whose book The Loudest Voice in the Room inspired the Showtime series starring Russell Crowe as Roger Ailes. It is said that in the time before its wide release, the film is being planned to screen at some fall film festivals and it will be receiving a full-on awards campaign, which Ortenberg has been successful in with past projects like Crash and Spotlight.

Game Pass has been making big inroads on PC with a growing catalog of games for that side of the subscription service, and September is shaping up to be a bigger (and more expensive) month in that regard with plenty of resource gathering, geopolitical warfare, and fraught moral decisions to navigate.
