Jessica Lange Retiring Soon?!

Lange as Fiona Goode, Supreme witch in AHS Coven.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few weeks, you'll probably know that on Wednesday the premiere of American Horror Story season three, subtitled Coven, was aired. You might also know that the premiere was a huge hit with 5.54 million U.S. viewers alone. Even with show's success, during a recent interview with Yahoo TV Coven star, Jessica Lange, has announced that she is planning on retiring in the next few years.

Since Lange, who has starred in all the previous AHS seasons, is a fan favorite her announcement might upset some, but it's not all bad. Jessica said, "... if we do another one, I’ll do that, but then … yeah.  Because I’m kind of coming to the end of acting, anyhow.” So, even if she does retire in the near future we will still see her play at least one more awesome and crazy AHS character.

However, all hope is not lost! Ryan Murphy, AHS creator, when asked about the announcement said that each year Jessica says it's her last but keeps coming back for more. Since she's already committed to a fourth season, who knows? Maybe she'll stick with AHS till the end. (Which might actually be a long time since Murphy also said that he wants to see AHS go for 10, 12 or maybe even 15 years!)

I think there will definitely be some backlash towards Jessica's decision but in her defense, it's completely reasonable for her to want to retire, after all, she is almost 65... 

For now all we can do is enjoy Coven and look forward to season 4! 

What do you guys think? Are you upset over her announcement? If Game of Thrones has taught us anything, it's that a show can still be AMAZING even if beloved characters depart from the show. I think that the rest of AHS's great cast will easily be able to carry the show without Jessica...

Sequels, Reboots and more Sequels! (The Mummy and a Friday the 13th tv show?)

Yup, you read right! The director of the original Friday the 13th and producer of others has announced that he's planning on a sequel to the 2009 reboot! Sean Cunningham said ,"There will be another Friday the 13th, which will probably get shot in the spring. If it all goes as I would like, it would then be released at the beginning of 2015." 

If  you're surprised wait till you hear this! Cunningham added ," I think there will also be Friday the 13th: Crystal Lake Chronicles, which is sort of a Smallville. We’ve been on-again off-again with that for years and there are a bunch of great stories to be told, but I think the way that it’s finally going to get delivered is not through a conventional television network, but through the Internet. I can’t tell you who the delivery people will be, but it won’t be the traditional route. There’s also the possibility of webisodes, and I think we even have an idea for a terrific Friday the 13th video game."

Coming fall 2014!

There has also been announced that Andres Muschietti (director of Mama) is planning on a reboot of the classic monster movie The Mummy! We also know that Jon Spaiths (writer on Prometheus) wrote the script. Before you groan apparently his original script for Prometheus was much better than what they used so there is hope!

So tell me, are you guys excited for these reboots/ remakes or are you tired of them?

James Wan: Retiring from Horror?

Yeah, so apparently James Wan (director of The Conjuring, Insidious and Insidious Chapter 2) is finished making horror movies. So, if your at all like me your thinking, "why in the hell would he do this?" Well, this is his reason, "I spent the last 10 years of my life doing this. It's time for a change, for goodness sake."


Ok hold up, you're saying that over the past ten years you've worked on six horror movies and now you "...go on record and say I am finished with the horror genre. Conjuring and Insidious 2 are my two last scary movies." Isn't that just a bit hasty? I know he's in his middle thirties but to completely write off the horror genre, forever?

I don't care what he says, hopefully we will still get a few more scary flicks from Wan in the future. What do you guys think of this, is he speaking out of his ass or do you agree with his decision? Tell me below!
