Taylor Sheridan’s career really took off with a series of three movies he wrote in the 2010s. Though the films don’t share a single story, they all delve into similar ideas and themes. These modern Westerns were all well-received when they came out, and many consider this ‘American Frontier’ trilogy to be Sheridan’s best work.
Ryan Gosling is reportedly joining forces with the directors of the acclaimed film Everything Everywhere All at Once for his next science fiction movie. After considering an adaptation of Andy Weir’s work, Gosling will star in a new, currently unnamed “event film” by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, known collectively as Daniels. The directing duo recently won seven Academy Awards for Everything Everywhere All at Once, including Best Picture and Best Director, and are now embarking on their next creative venture.

Instead of another supernatural drama, creator Chris Carter tapped into the popular trends of the late 90s. Inspired by the success of films like The Matrix, which explored the idea of reality being digitally constructed, Carter created Harsh Realm, a series that combined military action with science fiction. It was a risky move, but Carter’s reputation was expected to attract viewers. Unfortunately, the show didn’t perform as well as the network hoped, and it was canceled after only three of its nine episodes aired. Despite this, Harsh Realm remains a compelling and often overlooked series, suggesting it was simply released before its time.
