After a successful world premiere at Austin’s famous Fantastic Fest, plus a series of festival screenings both international and nationwide, Gille Klabin’s psychedelic sci-fi adventure-comedy The Wave is arriving in theaters nationwide and Video on Demand January 17, 2020.

Justin Long (Die Hard 4.0, Accepted) and Donald Faison (Scrubs, Clueless) lead the unique modern-day parable that follows Frank (Long), an opportunistic insurance lawyer, who thinks he’s in for the time of his life when he goes out on the town to celebrate an upcoming promotion with his co-worker, Jeff (Faison). However, their night takes a bizarre turn when Frank is dosed with a hallucinogen that completely alters his perception of the world. The drug takes him on a psychedelic quest through board meetings, nightclubs, shootouts, and alternate dimensions. As Frank jumps between reality and fantasy, he finds himself on a mission to find a missing girl, himself…and his wallet. Check out the trailer below!

 

The stellar cast of The Wave also includes Tommy Flanagan (Sons of Anarchy, Braveheart), Sheila Vand (A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night), Katia Winter (The Catch, Sleepy Hollow series), and Ronnie Gene Blevins (Joe, True Detective).

Last month, Louis Tomlinson released his latest single from his upcoming debut album Walls. The track titled “Don’t Let it Break Your Heart” is an ode to perseverance. The music video that was directed by Charlie Lightening is no different; it is a continuation from the first two previous videos, “Kill My Mind” and “We Made It.”

In the video, Tomlinson is seen playing soccer and enjoying a night out drinking in a pub with friends. The environment changes when one of the friends is singled out by some thugs. The group is threatened to carry out a heist. Tomlinson is the driving the getaway car while his friends who disguised themselves in masks, loot duffle bags filled with money. With the thugs still after him, the friend who was singles out, in the beginning, fakes his death. He is reunited with his girlfriend, who was distraught at the start asking him not to do the heist job. The end of the video has Tomlinson putting the missing money in a bag. The video turns out to be seemingly symbolic of the singer’s healing process.

Louis Tomlinson’s solo album, Walls, is set to be released on January 31, 2020. You can watch the “Don’t Let it Break Your Heart” music video below!

After a week of speculation and intrigue surrounding mysterious ads for a nonexistent island, Harry Styles finally confirmed the rumors circulating online and gave fans a teaser for his next music video, “Adore You.” The song is the latest single from Styles’ new album Fine Line, which will be released December 13.

 

The short clip explains the history of the peculiar island of Eroda, and what happens when a mysterious Boy (Styles) is born who is different from the rest of the island’s inhabitants: he smiles while everyone else frowns. Feeling miserable and alone, he is on the edge of giving up when he meets a fish who is just as sad as he is. The video ends with a “To Be Continued…” title card.

The teaser follows a week of a secretive marketing campaign for the fantasy island of Eroda, which features prominently in the new teaser. Fans were able to connect the island to Styles through clues, like the name itself (Eroda = Adore spelled backwards) and hints on the island’s “official” tourism website. The full video for “Adore You” will be released December 6. “Adore You” is the third single from Fine Line, following “Lights Up” and “Watermelon Sugar.”
