4DX Announces Yash Raj Films’ “WAR” as the Next Indian Film to be Released in Multi-Sensory 4DX Cinema Experience

London (September XX, 2019) - CJ 4DPLEX, the world's leading cinema technology company, with Yash Raj Films, the leading film production company of India, today announced “WAR” will be coming to theatres in the innovative multi-sensory cinema experience, 4DX. The film will release on October 2nd on Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday in India.

Yash Raj Films "War" boasts of A-list Indian talent headlined by actors Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff and Vaani Kapoor along with director Siddharth Anand and producer Aditya Chopra. The film includes an array of gripping action sequences such as car-chases, helicopter-chases, explosions, fist fights and motorcycle chase scenes, making 4DX the perfect place for audiences to experience the film. A powerful combination of motion and environmental effects will have movie fans experiencing the spectacular and thrilling action sequences, the adrenaline rush of helicopters and cars in flight. 4DX motion and vibration will capture the turbulence of helicopters perilously swaying across the sky in the climactic helicopter chase sequence that everyone’s buzzing about.

4DX is a cinematic experience that is growing in popularity for moviegoers seeking to be totally immersed in the film they are watching. This is proven by 4DX’s performance, with an all-time record-breaking month in July at the global box office. 4DX's advanced theatre technology enhances the on-screen visuals of action-packed blockbusters, transcending the traditional cinema experience through special effects including motion-synchronized seats, wind, fog, rain, lightning, snow, vibration and scents. The result is one of the most innovative cinema formats in the industry, drawing fans into the action on the screen, providing a more exciting movie-watching experience.

"We were very clear from the start that we want to give Indian audiences action that they have never seen before. Our film has a huge car sequence that sees Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff perform an adrenaline-pumping action stunt that has been entirely shot on ice. We shot this in Finland, which is in the Arctic Circle and we were informed by our production team that we were the first ever film in the world to shoot an action sequence of this scale in the Arctic. We look forward to reveal this movie in 4DX, and we strongly believe 4DX will be the best way to enjoy our film." said director Siddharth Anand.

This October Channel 4 will mark Black History Month with a season of documentaries and films- from seminal game-changers and fascinating histories to bold new visions for the future.

gal-dem, the online platform committed to telling the stories of women and non-binary people of colour, are reaching into the Channel 4 archive to curate a Black British History collection. The six selected titles, which each have something to say about the black British experience, are: Desmond's (1989), Just like Mohicans (1985), Justice for Joy  (1995), The Event: How Racist Are You (2009), Chewing Gum (2015), and Black Lesbian Handbook (2015).

These questions include, but are not limited to: Who has the Windrush scandal ignored? Who owns queer? Would the black British experience be any different without church? Does British TV really represent black people? Why are white people so committed to the idea of white superiority? Can onscreen stereotypes ever be a force for good?"

Watch the Quest Teaser

The critically acclaimed A Fisherman’s Tale utilizes innovative game mechanics exclusive to VR, making it a truly unique and immersive experience. Players work with infinite, even smaller and bigger replications of themselves, using real-life movements to pick up, throw, combine and use all kinds of objects to solve puzzles and find their way out of a world where physics are utterly broken. Set in a world of infinite recursion, A Fisherman’s Tale is a journey of introspection and extrospection that requires the player to reach both inside and outside themselves if they want to uncover the truth of an unusually tall tale.

“We are thrilled to announce that A Fisherman’s Tale will soon be available on Oculus Quest,” Said Balthazar Auxietre, creative director and co-founder at Innerspace. “We are putting in all our efforts to create an experience that is on par with the PC version, but with the complete untethered ease offered by Quest. We have been amazed by how powerful the platform is for such a compact and affordable device. Being able to bring our game to a new platform with such potential is really exciting and we hope that Quest users will be delighted by the adventure of our little fisherman puppet.”

Later this year, VR players can bend and twist reality when the game launches for the Oculus Quest. For more information, visit afishermanstale-game.com

The Apprentice returns - It’s back and bigger than ever… Premieres at 9pm on Wednesday 2 October, BBC One and BBC iPlayer

The BBC's award-winning business show The Apprentice is back, celebrating its 15th series, and promises to be bigger and better than ever.

Lord Sugar will put sixteen candidates through their paces in a series of testing challenges as they compete to win a life-changing £250,000 investment for their business, in what remains the toughest interview process around.

The series kicks off with a bang, as Lord Sugar whisks the business hopefuls away to Cape Town, South Africa. For the 15th series, Lord Sugar sets the candidates one of the most challenging tasks ever; to create, set up and run bespoke tours on the outskirts of Cape Town. This takes the candidates out of their comfort zone from the get go, as the teams head off on Safari and Vineyard excursions.

Following their trip to South Africa, Lord Sugar pulls out all the stops to test the candidates in the world of business. They must run a corporate away day on a Steam Train, design a theme park ride using the latest technology, travel to Finland to create an advertising campaign, and hit the streets of Oxford and Cambridge to find and buy nine items. The hopeful entrepreneurs will also create a new Electric Bicycle to pitch to the market, and head into the world of music management by marketing an unsigned artist.

This year the opportunity to become Lord Sugar's next Business partner is tougher than ever and has attracted candidates from a range of careers and backgrounds; from an athlete to an artisan bakery owner, from a chartered engineer to a sports management agent, and from a finance manager to a pillow salesman, each must draw from their own experience and natural talent to succeed.

Baroness Brady and Claude Littner return as Lord Sugar's trusted advisors, who are once again on hand to scrutinise the candidate's every move.  After each task, the candidates must face Lord Sugar in the boardroom, where they will have to fight it out to avoid hearing the dreaded: "You're fired."

Over the past eight years, Lord Sugar has invested a staggering £2.25 million into nine fledgling businesses - and the bar is set high for this year's candidates to impress as they fight for Lord Sugar's investment.

Comedian, writer and actor Tom Allen is the brand new host of The Apprentice: You're Fired, which will air each week on BBC Two, straight after the main show. Casting a wry eye over each week's events, Tom will be joined by a raft of celebrity fans and business professionals to dissect and debate the candidates progress through each task.

Two special episodes, The Final Five and Why I Fired Them, will also return to reveal the stories behind the series before the finale.  The Final Five reflects on the journey of the candidates who make it through to the interviews, before they battle it out to secure their place in the final.  Before the series finale, Lord Sugar will also reveal a further insight into his boardroom decisions in Why I Fired Them.

Interview with Dylan Benson ahead of his upcoming debut on hit soap Home & Away.

The son of actors Greg Benson and Amanda Newman, Sydney’s Dylan Benson is prepping for a profile boost from his upcoming debut on hit soapie Home & Away.


Home and Away is well-known for being a launchpad for some of today’s biggest names. What do you think the show offers young people, in addition to a paying gig, that helps cement their careers?

It’s an incredible training ground for actors. The show is fast paced and they usually only do two or three takes before moving on to the next scene. This means you learn how to nail scenes first go and do loads of different scenes. Do this over months or years and you really sharpen your skills


And it was the same for your father – who was a star on the show?

Yep! He was on it for six years. So was my mother. That’s actually how they met!


Did he ever try his luck in Hollywood?

He auditioned for a few roles in Hollywood but he never moved over there to try his luck. Some of his friends did, some hit success in Hollywood and others came back to do something different.


How has it changed since he was on the series, you think? Has it got easier or harder to nab roles as an actor?

I’m not sure what it was like back then but it’s insanely competitive now. There’s hundreds of actors competing for roles and the issue is roles don’t pop up often. In the four years I’ve been training, I’ve only had 4 auditions for Home and Away. The fourth one I got some luck and booked the job. There’s a lot of idle time and you’ve got to learn how to use it properly. This is usually what determines the success of actors


I suppose one would also look at the likes of Paul Hogan and Chris day they were overnight successes – when they likely weren’t at all?

There’s absolutely no such thing as an overnight success. I’m obsessed with stories about how actors made it and not one of them become a star overnight. They’d all been training and working at it for many many years. It’s just that you don’t hear about them till they’re on the big screen and you think they rocketed to success overnight.


What kind of doors would you like to see open as a result of your role on Home & Away?

It’s definitely a nice resume booster as so many Aussie stars started on Home and Away. Hopefully that will mean I can get into the audition room more and also when I relocate to America. It’s competitive out there so any credit helps a lot and the more times you get into the audition room, the better.


And you’ve relocated to L.A to make that happen?

I’m still in Sydney but I do have plans to relocate to LA or New York. I really want to study at UCB to do some improv and also meet some acting coaches in the states. I might even give stand up another go – I did it here in Sydney. I am planning to be there this pilot season and excited to see how I go. I’m also a model so I’ll be working over there as a model too. Should keep me very busy. I’ve wanted to live in America for a long time now to chase my dreams so I can’t wait
