The mafia has exiled him there and he’s going to have to make the best of it. Prestige drama has done well for the streamer as titles like Yellowjackets, The Mayor of Kingstown, and 1883 have been heralded by fans and critics alike. However, one of the big draws for Tulsa King is the presence of a venerated star like Stallone....

Nikkita Lyons kicked tonight’s episode of NXT off with a match against rival Lash Legend, and the two clearly have no love for each other. They’ve been feuding ever since Lyons made her NXT 2.0 debut, and tonight Legend was out to prove she was the number 1 star in NXT. Legend had control at several moments throughout the match, grounding the explosive star with holds aimed at wearing her down, but it wasn’t enough, and after some big offense from Lyons she was able to get the 1,2,3 and the win....

The showrunner for Young Justice: Phantoms says that the series has connections to Catwoman: Hunted. Greg Weisman is no stranger to the DC Comics Universe, having helped Titans and other shows within the continuity. But, on his site, he says that the upcoming animated movie and the HBO Max show are more closely linked than they would appear at first glance. This news will no doubt excite a lot of the Young Justice fans as they try to piece together what happened on Earth 16 that shares DNA with Catwoman’s adventure....

Attack on Titan shows off killer art for the newest episode of the fourth and final season! The final season of the anime had started out with a slow burn as it was initially focused on bringing attention to new characters introduced on the other side of the conflict in the country of Marley.

Batwoman has cast actress Victoria Cartagena as Renee Montoya in the upcoming season 3 - or rather, Batwoman has recast Victoria Cartagena as Renee Montoya. Cartagena previously played the character of Renee Montoya on Fox’s Gotham - though the report of her casting in The CW’s Batwoman makes it clear that the two versions of the character are not connected - meaning the universes of Gotham and Batwoman are in no way connected....

An apple a day may keep the doctor away, but 365 movies keeps itself just outside of filmmaker Edgar Wright’s reach, apparently. The Last Night in Soho director apparently decided to watch a movie a day in 2021, something that was probably already probably impossible, since he was doing a press junket for his own movie this year. Still, he did admirably, watching more than 300 movies, and provided Twitter with a list of them, deadpanning that he had come to accept his inability to watch another 35 movies in the next 48 hours before the end of 2021....

Mandy Patinkin’s first go at Wingspan had some major struggles. Yesterday, the beloved actor posted a 2-minute video of himself and his wife Kathryn Grody trying to learn how to play Wingspan, the popular birdwatching board game designed by Elizabeth Hargrave and published by Stonemaier Games. Wingspan is a bit of a complex game and it seems that Patinkin and his family learn that the hard way. At one point, Patinkin reads the directions and exclaims “This is incomprehensible!...

It’s been over a month since the debut of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, the latest film within the ever-sprawling tapestry of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Ryan Reynolds is one of the busiest people in Hollywood. Not only is the Deadpool star a hardworking actor, but he’s also a businessman who owns the production company Maximum Effort as well as an ownership stake in Mint Mobile. Reynolds also owned Aviation Gin before Diageo announced it was acquiring the company in a deal valued at up to $610 million. Reynolds’ latest venture was purchasing the Welsh football club Wrexham AFC alongside It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia’s Rob McElhenney....

Shin Ultraman’s release has been delayed due to complications from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Much like Shin Godzilla did once for Godzilla, Tsuburaya Productions had teamed with Neon Genesis Evangelion creator Hideaki Anno and director Shinji Higuchi for a new take on their famous Ultraman franchise that would introduce a different kind of tone for the famous Tokusatsu classic with Shin Ultraman. The film had been tentatively scheduled for a release in Japan later this Summer, but unfortunately a new update from Tsuburaya Productions has bumped the release date to a now unannounced release....

However, it would have to be done right because he’s not trying to put the cart before the horse....

Mark Hamill is grateful to The Mandalorian finale director Peyton Reed for the opportunity to revisit Luke Skywalker at the peak of the character’s optimism. Hamill previously returned to play Luke in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, but Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s characterization of the older Luke Skywalker as jaded and disillusioned with the Jedi proved controversial with fans and wasn’t what Hamill expected. Hamill has said he eventually came to this unexpected development in Luke’s personality and later played a more upbeat version of the character in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which he expected to be his last time portraying the character....

As the various reboots and restarts that DC Comics has had over the years go, The New 52 is one that still evokes mixed reactions from fans. Intended to bring all of DC’s characters into the modern era with a fresh starting point, the execution worked well in some aspects and less so in others and while DC has since moved on from it, the era recently trended on social media as fans and creators looked back on The New 52 and now The Suicide Squad director James Gunn is weighing in with his thoughts....

Hawkeye director Rhys Thomas had some strong praise for the show’s real star, Lucky the Pizza Dog. The pup’s real name is Jolt, and Variety managed to snag the filmmaker to talk about the upcoming Marvel Studios series. Hawkeyes has no shortage of star power with Jeremy Renner, Hailee Steinfeld, Alaqua Cox, and Florence Pugh all in tow. All of those actors have a ton of talent, but you can’t just put a one-eyed dog in a Santa hat and not expect them to be a fan favorite in the trailer....
