Steven Spielberg, arguably the most popular film director of all time, just made a music video using an iPhone.

The 75-year-old filmmaker made his music video debut last Sunday, shooting a three-minute music video for Marcus Mumford - in just one shot.

“On Sunday 3rd July in a high school gym in New York, Steven Spielberg directed his first music video, in one shot, on his phone,” Mumford wrote on Twitter. “[Actress and Spielberg's wife] Kate Capshaw was the almighty dolly grip.”

The video itself was for Mumford’s new single, Cannibal, and it’s available to watch right now. Cannibal is part of Mumford’s first, self-titled solo album.

“I’ve been overwhelmed by the support of the people around me to bring this music to you, and I cannot hope to express all of my gratitude,” he added. “When people get it, it blows my mind. Kate and Steven just got it, and I cannot thank them enough.”

The music video was directed by Spielberg, with Capshaw acting as Producer, Art Director and Dolly Grip. Kristie Macosko Krieger was producer and behind-the-scenes videographer, with Carey Mulligan as costumer and sound.

The video was performed by “Some Chancer Mug” – Mumford himself if you go by the video's parlance.

Considering Spielberg’s penchant for flashy effects and blockbuster editing, it’s a rather humble affair – a one-shot, three-minute long, black and white video of Mumford playing his new track to an empty room.

Obviously, it’s quite a coup for Mumford… but Spielberg won’t be stepping away from movies yet. His next film, The Fabelmans, is due to be released on November 23, 2022 – a semiautobiographical film that loosely tells the story of Spielberg’s own childhood.

The film will star Seth Rogen as Spielberg’s “favorite uncle” alongside Michelle Williams and Paul Dano, with fellow filmmaker David Lynch in a currently unknown role.

Australian soccer player Sam Kerr will be the first female athlete to grace an international FIFA cover after EA announced she will feature on FIFA 23's Ultimate Edition, alongside France's Kylian Mbappé.

The Chelsea forward will also be the sole star on the game's standard edition in her home country of Australia, as well as New Zealand - that cover will also be available as an Amazon exclusive internationally. Paris Saint-Germain star Mbappé will feature on the standard edition in other territories.

"It’s an honour and a dream come true to be on the cover of FIFA 23," said Kerr. "It’s been incredible to work with Kylian and the whole EA SPORTS team, and I can’t wait for fans to get their hands on a copy of the game."

Female athletes have previously only featured on regional editions of FIFA 16, when EA launched a competition that let fans decide which player would join Lionel Messi on the cover. Alex Morgan was voted as the U.S. star, Christine Sinclair was on Canada's cover, and Stephanie Catley appeared on the Australian.

Mbappé, who will feature on the cover for the third year in a row, also paid homage to the historic moment, saying "I’m even more excited to share a cover honouring women’s football with a great player like Sam Kerr".

The 28-year-old is captain of the Australian national team and the all-time leading scorer in the United States' National Women's Soccer League. Kerr has also won seven Golden Boots and is the only female player to have claimed the award in three different leagues and three different continents.

FIFA 23 will be the final game in the franchise as EA and soccer's governing body ended their partnership in May 2022. The series will be rebranded as EA Sports FC but shouldn't change much gameplay wise, while FIFA is now seeking to create its own franchise.

"Wacky monster fans unite!" Rob Zombie has announced that his movie reboot of The Munsters will premiere on Netflix this September.

The Munsters will be released by Universal 1440 Entertainment, which is the direct-to-video entertainment label of Universal Pictures Home Entertainment, but rather than debuting on Universal's streaming service Peacock, Zombie has confirmed that the mansion at Mockingbird Lane will open its doors to Netflix subscribers this September.

"This fall we are gonna spook-out like it's 1964!" Zombie declared on his most recent Instagram post. "Yep, The Munsters and The Addams Family are returning to the boob tube at the same time courtesy of Netflix. It's been 58 years since this clash of the titans first happened. Perfect entertainment for your pumpkin carving party."

Zombie's Munsters reboot is debuting alongside Tim Burton's creepy and altogether kooky Addams Family spin-off Wednesday, which stars Jenna Ortega in the title role. This series was first announced in February last year, but Netflix has said very little since outside of the slow but sure revealings of cast members and a 30-second character teaser.

Meanwhile, The Munsters received its first full-length trailer last week. It arrived only a few days after the teaser and gave viewers the best look yet at Zombie's upcoming movie, which follows Sheri Moon Zombie's Lily, Jeff Daniel Phillips' Herman, and Daniel Roebuck's The Count on a "hauntingly hilarious trip from Transylvania to Hollywood."

They will be joined by Richard Brake as Transylvania's most popular Mad Scientist, Dr. Henry Augustus Wolfgang, Jorge Garcia as Floop, Sylvester McCoy as Igor, Catherine Schell as Zoya Krupp, and Cassandra Peterson as Barbara Carr, a pink plaid suit-wearing real estate agent who appears to be quite a contrast to her signature Elvira persona.

Rumors of The Munsters reboot were floating around for a while before confirmation arrived last year that Zombie would be making a modern adaptation of the TV classic. Ever since then, he has been sharing behind-the-scenes photos on social media, including costume concept designs for the main characters and a snap of the Mockingbird Lane mansion.

The showrunner of Netflix's Resident Evil series wants to introduce a live-action version of fan-favorite villain Lady Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village if the show is renewed.

Speaking to Polygon, Andrew Dabb said he wants to bring in as many iconic characters from the game series as possible, including enemies from anywhere between the first and latest entries.

"Over the course of the series, I want to bring everything in," he said. "Left to my own devices, I want Lady D, I want the plant monster, I want it all. I want everything, but judiciously [and] responsibly over time."

Given that the show follows two timelines (one before and one deep into the apocalypse), Dabb said he wants to explore how these video game characters would be different in each storyline, and would even like to include previous game protagonists.

"The question becomes, how do people change? So there are characters we haven’t seen in quite a while: Jill Valentine and Claire Redfield being examples of that. How do they react in the present day to all this stuff happening?," he said.

"An equally interesting question, if not more interesting, is what happens 14 years, 15 years, 16 years in the future, where the thing they were trying to prevent has happened? These characters have spent their lives fighting these outbreaks. What happens when you lose? What does it look like?"

While Resident Evil hasn't yet been renewed for further seasons, it's dethroned Stranger Things as the most viewed show on Netflix right now. It also ends on a blatant cliffhanger which references another famous character from the games, and given Dabb's comments regarding other characters, there certainly appears to be big plans for new seasons.

In our 7/10 review, IGN said: "While the quality of Resident Evil’s split timelines varies, the way it creates an original story and continuity while using the events of the games as a foundation is impressive and especially enjoyable if you’re a big fan of Albert Wesker."

IGN can exclusively reveal that Shuhei Uesugi has been cast as Kazuma Kuwabara in Netflix's live-action adaptation of the mega-popular Japanese manga Yu Yu Hakusho. This comes after IGN's exclusive reveal of the casting of Takumi Kitamura (Yusuke Urameshi) and Kanata Hongō (Hiei), adding more names to our slew of show protagonists.

Known by his last name as Kuwabara, Kazuma is one of the series' main protagonists — along with Yusuke Urameshi, Kurama, and Hiei. He is the younger brother of Shizuru Kuwabara, and he seeks to become Yukina's (Hiei's twin sister's) lover. Close friends with Urameshi, Kuwabara is the second-toughest kid and self-proclaimed punk at Sarayashiki Junior High School — always trying to usurp Yusuke Urameshi's position as the toughest but always falling short.

Uesugi is best-known for playing Kannonzaki in Netflix's 2018 teenage crime drama River's Edge. When talking about the announcement, he shared his excitement with IGN: "I’m so excited that the live-action adaptation of YuYu Hakusho, a series loved by people all over the world, will be available on Netflix where fans everywhere can discover it. I am confident that the series will be enjoyed by people no matter where they live and I hope fans will get a chance to check it out."

The series is based on the legendary Japanese manga of the same name, initially serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump (published by Shueisha as Jump Comics) starting in 1990. The manga is considered a fan favorite (we called its anime adaptation one of the best of all time) and has sold over 50 million copies in Japan alone. The adaptation will present a new version of the 1990 manga in which a teenage boy, Yusuke, dies and begins a new afterlife as an underworld detective.

The adaptation is being helmed by director Shô Tsukikawa (You Shine in the Moonlight, My Teacher, My Love) with a screenplay written by Tatsuro Mishima. Already announced in the cast are Takumi Kitamura (Yusuke Urameshi), Kanata Hongō (Hiei) and Jun Shison, who'll play an unannounced role (online speculation points to Youko Kurama.)

The show's producer, Akira Morii, handled location management for Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and produced 2020's hit Netflix thriller Alice in Borderland.

"I could barely contain my excitement when I realized that Netflix is bringing its Hollywood-level capabilities to this project," Morii told IGN. "I found that the traditional Japanese style of carefully filming only what is needed, keeping the finishing touches to a minimum, and the technological capabilities that far exceeded our own knowledge and experience fused together nicely on set. As a result, I think we will present the world with a Yu Yu Hakusho that far exceeds expectations."

Yu Yu Hakusho will be premiering worldwide and only on Netflix in December 2023. For more news about the adaption, stick to IGN.

Netflix's password-sharing crackdown is continuing apace. The streaming giant is currently asking customers in five more countries to pay up if they share their login information with people outside of their home.

First reported by Bloomberg, customers in Argentina, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and the Dominican Republic are being asked to pay a fee for regularly using their account outside of their home. However, this will not affect the use of Netflix on mobile devices.

The price of adding a home to your account varies, but is no more than $2.99 USD in any of the affected countries. Netflix says more than 100 million households are using shared accounts, and that password sharing is particularly high in Latin America.

Netflix has been cracking down on password sharing for a while. In March, the company announced plans to test a similar system in Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru, where users would have to pay for viewers that don't live in the same household. Last year, Netflix introduced a verification system in some countries that came with a warning that said, "If you don't live with the owner of this account, you need your own account to keep watching."

It's been somewhat of a turbulent time for the streaming giant. The service is losing subscribers, leading to Netflix's shares plummeting to their lowest point since 2018. Following this, Netflix laid off around 150 employees. And, if you do eventually need to subscribe to your own account, it will be pricier than before, as Netflix implemented its sixth price hike since 2014 earlier this year.

However, Netflix is also experiencing some wins. Last year's hit Squid Game was the biggest series launch ever for Netflix, and Stranger Things recently surpassed a billion hours of watch time.
