John Wick’s Creator Set to Deliver Highly Anticipated Sequel to ‘Nobody’ ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Back in 2021, Nobody was a huge hit; honestly, nobody saw that coming! Made on a modest $16 million budget, it raked in almost $60 million at the box office. It followed in the footsteps of John Wick, which surprised everyone in 2014 by becoming a cultural phenomenon. Fun fact: Derek Kolstad wrote both films’ scripts.
Since Nobody’s success, we have eagerly awaited the sequel, and the wait is nearly over. ‘Nobody 2’ is on the way, but Derek Kolstad didn’t write it alone this time. He received help from Aaron Rabin, Umair Aleem, and, of course, the star himself, Bob Odenkirk—who has showcased his acting abilities not only in Nobody but also through his outstanding roles in ‘Breaking Bad’ and its spin-off, Better Call Saul.

The next Scream movie is scheduled to begin filming soon (possibly by the end of the year), and a new casting rumor doing the rounds online is claiming that McKenna Grace (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire) is in talks to join the cast.
According to Daniel Richtman, Grace is up for the role of Sidney Prescott's (Neve Campbell) eldest daughter, Tatum.
We also have confirmation that Courteney Cox will reprise her role as Gale Weathers. The Friends alum had previously stated that she hadn't officially signed on, but has now revealed to US Magazine that Gale will be back after coming very close to death (every one of those 356 knife wounds clearly missed her vital organs) in the previous movie.
"I’m the longest running Scream queen, so I guess I can’t stop now,” said the actress.

It's finally here! October, the best month of the year, especially if you're a horror movie fan. Any time of year is the right time to watch a horror movie, but there's something extra special about watching horror movies as we draw closer and closer to Halloween. And to help you get into the spirit of the season, this month's horror streaming roundup is all about ghost movies! Not just haunted house movies, mind you — but movies about ghosts and all their spooky antics. I like all horror subgenres. Vampires? Hell yes. Slashers? Absolutely. Monsters? Yep! But of all the various types of horror movies, movies about ghosts are my personal favorite. I can't say that I believe in ghosts, but like Fox Mulder, I want to believe. Until some sort of ghostly evidence presents itself to me, I'll stick with the movies. So grab your candy corn, carve a pumpkin or two,...

In the wake of Sony’s success with Colleen Hoover’s It Ends With Us, which racked up $344.5M worldwide, Universal is getting in on the action with the New York Times bestselling author, having landed rights to her novel Reminders of Him. Though no director or stars are attached as of yet, the studio has aggressively dated the movie for Feb. 13, 2026 — the same Valetine’s Day corridor in which they’ve played their Fifty Shades of Grey movies.
Reminders of Him has sold over 5 million copies domestically, 6.5 million copies globally, and has been translated into 45 languages.
The novel follows Kenna Rowan, who returns to town after a five-year prison stint, hoping to reunite with her four-year-old daughter. But the bridges Kenna burned are proving impossible to rebuild. Everyone in her daughter’s life is determined to shut Kenna out, no matter how hard she works to prove herself. The...

Something special happened in Malibu on Saturday.
Global superstar Pink took a break from her record-setting Summer Carnival tour to hit the stage at a far more intimate venue than the arenas she’s been selling out in recent months by performing at Rock4EB! alongside singer-songwriter Dallas Green. The pair headlined the Epidermolysis Bullosa Medical Research Foundation’s annual fundraiser by performing as you + me, their onetime side project. The event, held at the hilltop home of Brillstein-Entertainment Partners leader Marc Gurvitz, was a star-packed affair set against the backdrop of the Pacific Ocean, hosted once again by Judd Apatow and featuring a (savage) stand-up set by Jim Jefferies.
Special because of the elements. The guest list included Brad Pitt, Courteney Cox, Kaley Cuoco, Tom Pelphrey, Elizabeth Olsen, Charlie Hunnam, Damien Chazelle, Ed O’Neill, Jackson Browne, Kim Basinger, Mason Thames, Mckenna Grace, Aj Michalka, Aly Michalka and Catherine Bell,...

The Handmaid’s Tale is officially back in production on its sixth and final season.
Hulu revealed Friday that cameras began rolling on the series’ conclusion on September 3, sharing a photo of series star Elisabeth Moss holding the slate for the first scene of Episode 1, which she will also be directing.
Along with the production announcement, Hulu also said that Season 6 will debut in spring 2025.
The final chapter of the Emmy-winning Hulu series originally was to begin production in 2023 for a fall 2024 premiere, but that schedule, of course, was delayed by the strikes.

Something went viral on social media over the last week, and I kind of hate it.
The video is a faux trailer for a “live-action” movie adaptation of The Simpsons, featuring a succession of famous actors as the main Simpsons characters.
Amongst those at play are Adam Sandler as Homer Simpson, and Kristen Wiig as Marge. Jacob Tremblay “plays” Bart, McKenna Grace portrays Lisa, and Will Ferrell stands in for Ned Flanders.
Steve Buscemi plays C. Montgomery Burns, Neil Patrick Harris as Smithers, Ben Stiller as Moe, and John C. Reilly as Barney. Steve Carell is Principal Skinner, Zach Galifianakis is Chief Wiggum, and Kumail Nanjiani is Apu.

The new animated series in the expansive film and television franchise has been in the works since 2022, when word of its development was first announced. Likely, the success of the two latest movies, Afterlife and Frozen Empire, tipped the series over the edge.
Netflix's as of yet untitled animated series becomes the the third animated Ghostbusters series following 1986's The Real Ghostbusters and 1997's Extreme Ghostbusters. The former produced 140 episodes while the latter produced just 40. Netflix hasn't revealed an episode count for season 1.
While the show has become official, exact details on its plot haven't been revealed either. According to Variety, the tone of the series will mirror that of Afterlife and Frozen Empire,...

Two years ago, we heard that Ghostbusters: Afterlife writer/director Jason Reitman and his co-writer Gil Kenan (who ended up directing Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire) would be executive producing a new Ghostbusters animated series for the Netflix streaming service. Now Variety has broken the news that Netflix has officially given a greenlight to this series, and Elliott Kalan has boarded the project as writer, showrunner, and executive producer. Kalan has previously worked as the head writer on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, wrote for the Netflix revival of Mystery Science Theater 3000, co-hosts the podcast The Flop House, and wrote the Marvel comic book series Spider-Man and the X-Men.
Plot details are still under wraps, but Variety’s sources have told them that “the 3D animated series will be tonally in line with the recent Ghostbusters films.” It’s also not clear which characters this show will be focusing on.

This Batman: Caped Crusader article contains spoilers.
After its first 65-episode season, Batman: The Animated Series took on a new name: The Adventures of Batman & Robin. More than a throwback to previous Batman shows and comics, the new title underscored the new series focus on both the Dark Knight and the Boy Wonder.
Although it features a new cast and timeline, Batman: Caped Crusader serves as a spiritual successor to Tas, which has many people wondering: Does Robin also join Batman in Caped Crusader?
The answer is “Yes… sort of.”
Episode eight “Nocturne” begins with two boys from an orphanage run by Dr. Leslie Tompkins (voiced by Donna Lynne Champlin) sneaking out in the middle of the night to visit a traveling circus. The older of the boys, called Dickie (Carter Rockwood), has dark black hair and wears a red sweater, while the freckle-faced younger boy sports a tuft...

Time is flying faster than Rhaenys fell to her death this season on “House of the Dragon,” which is to say, wow, somehow the Season 2 finale of the “Game of Thrones” spin-off is already upon us.
Despite multiple clips leaking on social media earlier this week after what HBO referred to as an “unintentional release from an international third-party distributor,” the finale (airing Sunday at 9/8 on HBO and Max) is still the most anticipated watch of the weekend that isn’t related to the Summer Olympics. In the penultimate episode, Emma D’Arcy’s Queen Rhaenyra was last seen gathering an unconventional group of dragonriders — including a blacksmith and a drunk — to set the stage for the finale’s major conflict with Aemond (Ewan Mitchell), who fled to King’s Landing when he saw Rhaenyra’s growing forces. If you’ve read the source material, you likely know how this will end.

Batman: The Animated Series creator Bruce Timm has returned to the world of the Dark Knight with Batman: Caped Crusader on Prime Video, but he once had the opportunity to do a proper revival of The Animated Series. If you’re wondering why that didn’t happen, it’s because he turned it down.
While speaking with The Wrap, Timm said that Warner Bros. approached him four or five years ago with the idea of bringing back Batman: The Animated Series. At the time, the studio was about to launch its own streaming service and clearly saw the draw of new episodes. “They said, ‘Hey, how would you feel about going back and making some more ‘B:tas’ episodes?’ And I’m like, ‘Nah, we’d been there, we’d done that.’ I wasn’t interested in just revisiting that world,” Timm explained.

Spoilers for "Batman: Caped Crusader" to follow.
"Batman: The Animated Series," which many would call the definitive depiction of Batman, ran for an impressive 85 episodes in the '90s. (109 if you count the follow-up season "New Batman Adventures.") Any show that could escape the 65-and-no-more syndication cap that cartoons faced in those days had to be pretty good. Even across that many episodes, though, there were still unrealized stories.
Writer/producer Paul Dini specifically wanted to do an episode where Batman, beaten within an inch of his life, met Death and Morpheus from Neil Gaiman's "Sandman" comic. However, he was told that putting a character named Death in a kids cartoon was a no-go.
That wasn't the only impact Fox Kids' censors left on "Batman." Series co-creator Bruce Timm and producer Alan Burnett have both discussed an abandoned episode pitch where Natalia Knight/Nocturna, a vampiric villain from the comics,...

Everything you need to know about Batman: Caped Crusader happens in the opening credits. Sepia-tone shots of Batman glowering from a rooftop or skulking through empty rooms give way to images of the Gotham police office and gangsters firing tommy guns, all set to a moody, mournful score. Fancy art-deco script introduces the creatives involved, including producer credits for J.J. Abrams and The Batman director Matt Reeves.
Then there’s Bruce Timm, whose influence on the series is unquestionable from the moment the credits scene kicks off. Caped Crusader plays like an updated version of the great Batman: The Animated Series, which Timm created with Eric Radomski. Male characters may not have the same barrel chests and female figures don’t all have hourglass shapes, but the same linework and designs from the ’90s show is present. Each frame appears painted on black matte paper again,...

With the help of his allies, Batman fights against the rising criminal activities in Gotham.

Fans at this year's San Diego Comic-Con were treated to an early screening of Batman: Caped Crusader, but the biggest news which came out of the panel relates to a potentially controversial casting decision.
While fans of the Dark Knight's corner of the DC Universe will know the vigilante typically matches wits with Oswald Cobblepot, this 1940s version will have to contend with a new, female Penguin: Oswalda Cobblepot.
Entertainment Weekly caught up with Minnie Driver to discuss her role in the upcoming Prime Video series and the Good Will Hunting star says she jumped at the chance to reinvent such an iconic character. "That's what's so brilliant about what he's reimagined. The expansion of this particular character feels so timely. For such a vintage noir show, it's incredibly modern."
Driver will also get the chance to sing as Batman: Caped Crusader's Penguin, a challenge she was quick to embrace.

Continuing, he added, "I wanted to make him kind of weird, and spooky. If you’re stuck in a room with Batman, whether you’re Commissioner Gordon or Barbara Gordon or Renee Montoya, you don’t feel comfortable. You’re kind of like, ‘What is this guy? What’s this all about?"
Other villains confirmed to appear include Harley Quinn,...

A new poster for Batman: Caped Crusader has been released and it sees the Dark Knight walking down what may be a familiar alleyway as the shadows of his villains loom large.
So, who do we see here? Well, from left to right, there's Onomatopoeia, Two-Face, Catwoman, The Penguin, Harley Quinn, and a mysterious masked character we're having some trouble identifying.
There's a lot of intrigue surrounding this series, particularly given the creative team involved. While it isn't the Batman: The Animated Series many fans initially hoped for, it certainly feels like a spiritual successor, even with a vastly different setting - 1940s Gotham City - and a Bruce Wayne who has only just started his vigilante career.
Back to the hero's rogues gallery, though, and it sounds like they'll be undergoing their own reinvention in the Prime Video series.

Prime Video has released the first clip from Batman: Caped Crusader and it features Gotham City's Dark Knight chasing down some crooks in the iconic Batmobile.
A lot of split screen is utilised here (Ang Lee's Hulk would be so proud) and while this is a kid's show - we recently learned it won't boast a TV-ma rating - Batman isn't holding back as he mows down his foes.
Fans have high expectations for the show, especially as it's a spiritual successor to Batman: The Animated Series. However, the animation style and Bruce Timm's involvement are where the similarities end as this version is a rookie vigilante in 1940s-era Gotham.
It also sounds like Bruce Wayne will take a backseat as we pick up with the billionaire during his "Week Two" as Batman.
As executive producer James Tucker recently put it, "[Batman: Caped Crusader] feels more like an...

Prime Video's Batman: Caped Crusader looks set to put a completely new spin on the iconic DC Comics character. However, when the series was first announced, many fans hoped it might serve as a continuation of Batman: The Animated Series.
After all, it had been confirmed that producers Matt Reeves (The Batman) and J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker) would be joined by the creative mastermind behind the classic series, Bruce Timm.
Instead, the show - which was offloaded by Warner Bros. Discovery to Amazon after originally being developed for Max as part of a series of cost-cutting measures - will take us to 1940s Gotham City and "Week Two" of Bruce Wayne's time as Batman.
Talking to Empire Magazine (via Toonado.com), Timm revealed that Batman: Caped Crusader will make a major change to Bruce's transformation into a masked vigilante...specifically in regards to when he chooses to suit up.
