By RANJITA PAUL  December 27, 2019 7:19 am EST Here Are The Top 5 Henry Cavill Movies You Should Watch, Details Inside. Henry Cavill had quite a year with being the lead actor on the already popular show on Netflix, Witcher. The show has soon gained over quite a positive reaction from fans. Let us take a look at some of the best films by our very own Superman! 1. Mission: Impossible – Fallout : It seems like other than being the superhero, Henry Cavill is quite the star as a villain as well. His role as the bad guy in Mission: Impossible – Fallout (2018) was the start of his career as a gifted actor. The film has some intense and memorable fight scenes between Henry and Tom Cruise. These scenes include Henry Cavill’s indulging in some intense combat moves in the film. 2. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. : This film is an adaptation of the 1960s television show of the same name, this Cold War-era espionage thriller sees CIA agent Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) in th...

TV Spies of the ’60s By Gary McVey | December 18, 2019 The Man From U.N.C.L.E., debuting in 1964, was the first of the TV spy bunch, boldly announced as “Ian Fleming for television!”, a claim that NBC and its producers, MGM, were forced to hastily retract after Bond’s producers and Fleming’s estate threatened to sue. That claim was a lie, or more forgivably, an awkward exaggeration, and like Mission, U.N.C.L.E. was slow to find an audience. But once it did, it was a huge, if short-lived pop culture phenomenon. Its stars, Robert Vaughn and David McCallum, were mobbed everywhere they traveled. They got bushels of fan mail every week. MGM even happily publicized hundreds of fan letters addressed simply to “The Gun”, U.N.C.L.E.’s custom-crafted handgun, accessorized with a custom stock, barrel extender, silencer, even an infrared sniper scope. Millions of plastic replicas were among the most popular ‘60s Christmas toys for American boys. Could you imagine the reaction to...

10 Underrated Action Films From The 2010s You Have To See BY COLIN MCCORMICK – ON NOV 20, 2019 Movies based on old television shows can have a hit-or-miss record. It seems that audiences were not too interested in checking out the updated version of The Man From U.N.C.L.E., a spy series from the 60s that modern audiences probably never heard of. It's a shame that people didn't turn out for it because they missed a genuinely entertaining throwback action-comedy.

David McCallum became internationally famous in the 1960s for his role as the Russian secret agent Illya Kuryakin in the hit television series The Man From U.N.C.L.E. which also earned him two Emmy Award nominations. Born in Scotland to a family of classical musicians, his early years were filled with studying music, military service and working as a young actor in England. Late in life, he repeated his television success by taking on his current role as Medical Examiner Dr. Donald "Duck" Mallard on NCIS, the most popular television series in the world. STAY THIRSTY : Your debut novel, Once A Crooked Man, has been praised as a comic thriller in the vein of Elmore Leonard and Lawrence Block. What motivated you to write a novel at this time in your life? DAVID MCCALLUM : Many years ago while reading a Jack Higgins book on audiotape, I had the idea that I too could write. So I came up with the idea of an actor being handed $1,000,000 in a suitcase and began putting the words...

'The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2' Remains Unconfirmed; Sequel's Future Still In Question After Film's Performance Facebook Twitter Print Mail RSS By  Stacy Pantoja Sep 05, 2019 05:00 PM In 2015, The Man From U.N.C.L.E. arrived on big screens. While it is a huge milestone for the franchise considering the overall success of the original series in the 60s, the film somehow became a disappointment in terms of viewership records. The NBC series of the same name that aired from 1964 up to 1968 received a wide cult following. It branched out into various materials, including films, spin-offs, and other media platforms. So when the plans of making a film out of it started to emerge in 1993, everyone was so excited. However, the film did not make it to the theaters until 2015 as it was only in 2013 that the real development occurred. This is why many are convinced that the film will be a massive success since it has been long missed by its fans. Although the film has b...

By Jonnalyn Cortez Aug 26, 2019 05:15 PM Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer played the roles of Solo and Ilya in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. in 2015. But after four years, fans are still expecting to see their return in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2. The Man From U.N.C.L.E. had initially been an MGM television series that ran for four seasons on NBC before it was adapted into a movie under Guy Richie's directing skills. The show started the spy procedural craze of the 1960s before it became an underperforming spy film under Warner Bros. Although it didn't perform well in the box office, it was well-received by critics. It was said to be stylish, carrying a star-driven breeze. If MGM once again collaborates with WarnerMedia to make The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2, these studios can go on different directions. They can follow its original procedural format and aim for syndication. Hence, they can stick in on one of WarnerMedia's Turner networks - like TNT and TBS, per Observer. Altho...

Is 'The MAN From U.N.C.L.E. 2' Happening? Facebook Twitter Print Mail RSS By  KM Diaz Aug 20, 2019 05:37 PM The Man From U.N.C.L.E was released in 2015, and there were previous talks the movie will have a sequel, yet there's still no news about it until now. But while there were reports about The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2, the real question is: is the second movie still happening or not? Previous reports revealed that there were ongoing talks about The Man From U.N.C.L.E 2, but even though this news might be true, fans probably need to wait for a while until the official announcement is made. The sequel is reportedly in the works, and the script was being written as well, yet no further details were revealed about the second movie. If ever The Man From U.N.C.L.E. 2 is confirmed, lead stars Henry Cavill (plays Napoleon Solo) and Armie Hammer (Illya Kuryakin) will surely be back, alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Alicia Vikander, and Hugh Grant. Guy Richie directs the fir...

BY  JASON WOJNAR   – ON  AUG 18, 2019   IN  LISTS Guy Ritchie knows how to make an entertaining spectacle, from his humble days making Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch to his big budget spectacles like Aladdin and Sherlock Holmes. Unfortunately, some of his later films haven't broken bank at the box office. One such film undeserving of the low returns was The Man From U.N.C.L.E., based on the '60s television show. This comedic spy action flick carries Ritchie's signature style and is entertaining through and through. While it didn't bomb as bad as some of the others on this list, it didn't do as well as expected.
