Hello Down There: Watch the Alien Invasion Short Film Martin Scorsese Directed for the Super Bowl

Published

The Super Bowl may be all about the actual game for most, but for others it’s all about the star-studded commercials and the movie trailer premieres. The “big game” always brings out the big names, and this year we’re getting a commercial directed by – and starring! – Martin Scorsese. And because these things always come online early now, well, it’s already online.

Martin Scorsese directed the 90-second short film “Hello Down There” for website building/hosting company Squarespace this year, and you can watch the extended cut below!

“Hello Down There” is “a tale of intergalactic outreach” from Scorsese, a ripped-from-the-headlines look at a modern alien invasion that everyone’s too distracted to pay attention to.

“What does a highly advanced civilization have to do to get noticed around here?” the commercial asks. Watch the full extended version of the Super Bowl ad below to find out…

And keep your eyes peeled for The Taking of Deborah Logan star Jill Larson!

Daryl Dixon’s Dog from “The Walking Dead” Has Passed Away

Published

The real-life canine who portrayed Daryl Dixon’s (Norman Reedus) pet “Dog” on “The Walking Dead,” a Belgian Shepherd whose real name was Seven, has sadly passed away this week.

Variety notes that Seven “appeared in 26 episodes, including the series finale.”

Norman Reedus has shared a handful of behind the scenes photos to his Instagram (@bigbaldhead), paying tribute to the canine companion that he calls the “best TV buddy ever.”

Seven’s stint on “The Walking Dead” began in Season 9, originally the pet of the character Leah Shaw. In the wake of the character’s disappearance, Daryl adopts the dog as his own.

It was Reedus who reportedly pushed for his character to have a canine pal on the show.

You were a very good boy, Seven. May you rest in peace.
