Space Force is not about Space Force. That is to say, Netflix’s new 10-episode sitcom, co-created by The Office US dream team Greg Daniels and Steve Carell, is not an insider’s view or exposé of the real-life space-warfare branch of the US Armed Forces. “We’re doing a fictional work of the imagination here,” says exec producer Daniels. “I don’t know how accurate it is.” However… “Sometimes there’s a bit of humorous overlap,” he admits. For example? “Well, one of our early ideas was that our Space Force would have camouflage fatigues with the pattern of the Moon’s surface on them as seen from a telescope, which we thought was funny – you’re never going to be outside of a space suit on the Moon, so why would you need camouflage?!

Back With a Vengeance - Sir Ridley Scott returns to the Colosseum with Gladiator II, the long-awaited sequel to the greatest historical epic of this century. Total Film meets the director and cast to discover how Maximus' legacy is echoing in eternity.
Ridley Scott is not a filmmaker to repeat himself. It's a trait that's all the more remarkable when you consider how prolific he's been over the nearly five decades since his feature debut, 1977's The Duellists. Alien prequels Prometheus and Alien: Covenant are the only times he's gone back to the same world, and those films are radical departures from the original.
Bad Romance - Timestalker Alice Lowe falls in love with the wrong man time and time again...
Her antidote to that? Timestalker a dark not-quite-romcom set over the course of centuries. Her protagonist Agnes finds herself attracted to the same man, Alex (Dunkirk's Aneurin Barnard), in every lifetime as she's reincarnated in the 1680s, 1790s, 1980s and the 22nd century. As romantic as that may sound, there's a bit of a catch: 'He's sort of a dickhead. On the surface he's appealing, but under, he's not.'
