The Daily Heat Index: Matthew McConaughey Is Interested In Returning To ‘True Detective’

But would Rust Cohle be enough to revitalize the sagging show?

“I Miss Rust Cohle”
HBO’s poorly received second season of True Detective may have proved that you shouldn’t push too much of a good thing. Though it seems pretty much everyone is over Nic Pizzolatto’s anthology series, first season standout Matthew McConaughey recently admitted he’s not done playing down-and-out detective Rust Cohle just yet. “I miss Rust Cohle, man,” McConaughey said on The Rich Eisen Show. “I miss watching him on Sunday nights.

A Brand New Transformer
On the heels of an announcement title for the latest Transformers film, director Michael Bay recently tweeted out an image revealing a brand new robot in disguise: Squeeks. While the rusty Vespa looks like it’d be no match against Megatron, at least it’s suitable for brand new character Izabella, played by newcomer Isabella Moner. Transformers: The Last Knight is set to hit theaters on June 23, 2017.

Who Ya Gonna Call?
Along with an updated all-female cast, Ghostbusters has enlisted Fall Out Boy and Missy Elliott for a new spin on the iconic theme song. While it may not appeal to fans of the 1984 classic who have been pooh-poohing the remake, it can definitely be used to scare a few ghosts or two. Listen above:
