This Star Trek: Picard article contains spoilers.
Star Trek: Picard Season 2 Episode 9
In the easter egg department, Star Trek: Picard would be hard-pressed to top the season 2 opener, “The Star Gazer,” which was absolutely packed with shout outs, call backs, and obscure references to the rest of the Trek canon. But, as season 2 heads towards its finale, the penultimate episode, “Hide and Seek,” still has a few deep cuts.
From some subtle costume choices for Jurati and Elnor to a lot of talk about Voyager, and to a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it shot of a very special starship, this episode of Picard covered plenty of Star Trek history. You just had to be watching very closely.
La Sirena Grounded
The episode opens with La Sirena grounded, and with Rios desperate to figure out what to do next. Interestingly, this is the second time Star Trek: Picard has grounded the La Sirena right before the season finale.

Syndicado Film Sales has boarded Rati Oneli’s “Ulysses,” a working title, as world sales agent and executive producer, and will be looking for financing for the Georgian production at Cannes.
Oneli directed “City of the Sun,” which had its world premiere at the Berlinale in 2017 and won awards at several other festivals, and produced, co-wrote and played a lead role in Dea Kulumbegashvili’s “Beginning,” which was selected in the Official Selection at Cannes, was Georgia’s Official Entry in the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar category, and won best film, director and screenplay at San Sebastian Film Festival in 2020.
“Ulysses,” which Oneli says can be viewed as part noir, part thriller, but in essence is “a metaphysical journey of a man without a past to regain the meaning of life,” is in late development, with shooting set to begin in July. Syndicado is aiming to premiere the pic in the spring next year,...

Ukraine doesn’t need mercy, pity or condolences, noted Film.UA Group CEO Victoria Yarmoshchuk at MipTV on Monday. What it needs are new projects, international co-operations and jobs for people in the creative sector.
“On the first day of war, we realized that content is our weapon. Ukrainian stories are not local stories; they can be understood everywhere. The best thing the world can do right now is to collaborate with us,” she said.
Representatives of Film.UA Group, Media Group Ukraine, 1+1 Media and StarLightMedia, once rivals for content and viewers, came together in Cannes during a “Stand with Ukrainian Content Industry” session, urging international players to notice their showrunners, producers and writers, ready to work right now.
“We would like to be much more integrated in the international media community once the war ends,” said Inna Filipova, head of sales at 1+1 Media. She used to live in Bucha on the outskirts of Kyiv,...

If your household isn’t wall-to-wall Elf for the entirety of this month, then a) that must be nice and quiet. Can I come and stay? and b) you must be on the look-out for some alternative film options. Find them below in our handy guide to what’s premiering daily on Sky Cinema in the UK in December. Yes, there’s Christmas fare, including something about an animated cow, Mel Gibson playing a gun-toting Santa Claus, and two Sky Original festive films Last Train to Christmas and A Christmas Number One, but there’s much more besides.
Our highlights include monster mash-up Godzilla vs. Kong, Lin-Manuel Miranda musical In the Heights, excellent Thomas Vinterberg drinking drama Another Round (Mads Mikkelsen’s closing scene is worth the price of admission alone), and The Suicide Squad, which needs no introduction round these parts. There’s also the Peter Rabbit sequel for...

Did you feel that? Hawkeye's Nov. 23 episode two introduced a new character who got fans' hearts pumping—and had viewers watching that final scene on repeat. In "Hide and Seek," Clint, aka Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), helps Kate (Hailee Steinfeld) cut free from the Tracksuit mafia and a real-life murder mystery. A certain someone has ordered the gang members to bring Hawkeye to her. They bring him to a warehouse and Kate attempts to rescue him. Things don't go as planned and they both end up trapped in the building. Loud, pounding music and a red light eerily creep out from a corner, where a woman is listening to music on a speaker. She feels the vibrations of the bass and only stares...
