If you thought the trailer for the upcoming Michelle Yeoh multiverse film Everything Everywhere All at Once was awesome, wait until you see the movie’s poster. And io9 has the exclusive debut.

A24, which will release the film on March 25, commissioned popular artist James Jean to do a special poster for the film and it’s... incredible. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this poster is worth about 30,000 words, because it’s chock full of gorgeous, colorful, evocative images. Check it out.

“Capturing Everything Everywhere All at Once in a poster was an immense undertaking, sort of like trying to collapse the entire imagination of the Daniels into a single ultra-dense sheet of paper,” Jean told io9 via email. “The insanity of the film still resonates in my hands, as they tremble from the hundreds of hours it took to render each character and prop from the story. But I felt a sense of obligation to get things as right as possible, as the Wangs reminded me of my own parents and their struggles when they immigrated to the U.S. from Taiwan in the 1980s. The fracturing of self, culture, and the dreams of alternate timelines haunt my own work and are hopefully reflected in the complex tangle of lines and details in this particular piece.”

In the film, Michelle Yeoh plays Evelyn Wang, “an exhausted Chinese American woman who can’t seem to finish her taxes,” according to the official site. Of course, it’s much more than that: Evelyn is also a being who exists across infinite multiverses, and she’ll be torn out of one life and forced into others with the aim of saving the world. It co-stars Stephanie Hsu (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Ke Huy Quan (The Goonies), James Hong (Big Trouble in Little China), Jenny Slate (Obvious Child), and Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween).

We can’t wait for this one and, though this poster isn’t for sale or anything, we hope you love it as much as we do. Written and directed by the directing duo Daniels (Swiss Army Man), Everything Everywhere All at Once debuts March 11 at South by Southwest ahead of its March 25 release.

The Only Version of Return of the King Worth Watching Missing From Max After Streaming Bug

Screenshot: Warner Bros. Bad news for Max subscribers who’ve made re-watching The Lord of the Rings extended editions an annual New Year tradition: the third film in the trilogy, The Return of the King — which just celebrated its 20th anniversary! —is only available to stream in its theatrical version. No ancient evil is to blame, thankfully; it’s an unspecified “tech issue,” according to a Max spokesperson who responded to a comment request from Vulture after the issue was noted by dismayed fans on Reddit . The fact that The Return of the King extended edition is merely temporarily unavailable is actually good news given Max’s track record for removing content in the past, and the explanation makes sense considering The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers remain available in both their theatrical and extended editions. The Max spokesperson assured Vulture that The Return of the King extended edition will be, ah, returning soon to the service, though as of this writing i...

You Can Visit Freddy Fazbear's Pizza in Hollywood

Image: Universal Pictures Just in time for Halloween and for the release of Blumhouse and Universal Pictures’ Five Nights at Freddy ’s fans can visit a pop-up location of the fictional franchise from the game and film. That’s right, a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has mysteriously appeared in Hollywood. Like in the game and upcoming film, it’s a run-down spot that’s been closed down due to some mysterious activity within. Unfortunately, you can’t actually go in unless you’re hired as a security guard (kidding)—it’s just a facade for photo-ops you can visit. Check out the video captured by deadboifilms on TikTok below at the location on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood (near the Chateau Marmont Hotel). If you want to encounter the animatronic band of fuzzy and totally friendly creatures from the game, you’ll have to visit Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror Nights, there’s a walk-through in the DreamWorks theater lobby that’s been taken over by Blumhouse which features the real Jim ...
