As part of his Screentime show, Stephen ‘Steps’ Lowe, brings you a number of fresh looks at upcoming releases.
Torso
Netflix is developing a true-crime film about Cleveland’s unsolved Torso Murders, one of America’s most infamous cold cases from the 1930s. Based on the graphic novel Torso by Brian Michael Bendis and Marc Andreyko, the movie will delve into the mysterious killings that baffled authorities and captivated the public.
This marks a new wave of gritty, historical storytelling for the streamer, reviving a long-shelved project that previously lost a Fincher attachment. With Netflix securing rights after a competitive bid, expectations are high for a chilling, cinematic take on a dark chapter of American crime lore.
Hulu Announces Battlestar Galactica: Rebirth
Hulu has ordered Battlestar Galactica: Rebirth, a sci-fi reboot from original series creator Ronald D. Moore. The show will revisit the classic’s post-apocalyptic space war setup with new characters and contemporary themes.
Moore teases “both homage and reinvention,” blending nostalgic elements with modern storytelling - a move aimed at longtime fans and new audiences alike.
