The Nun 2 Producer James Wan Confirms Return of Valak Actor

James Wan confirms the return of Valak actor for The Nun 2 . The upcoming film follows 2018's The Nun , a gothic supernatural horror film that takes place in the same universe as 2013's The Conjuring ; more specifically, the film is a prequel/spin-off to The Conjuring 2 , which premiered in 2016. Each of these films is included in what is now referred to as " The Conjuring Universe." The Nun , directed by Corin Hardy and adapted from a story by Wan and Gary Dauberman, follows a priest and nun in 1952 Romania as they uncover demonic forces within the Roman Catholic church. The most haunting shape these forces take is that of the malicious Demon Nun, an incarnation of the legendary demon Valak. Following the overwhelming success of the film, a sequel to The Nun  was announced, with Akela Cooper as scriptwriter and Wan and Peter Safran confirmed as co-producing the film.  Related:  Every James Wan Movie, Ranked Worst To Best (Including Malignant) A recent Instagram

The MCU Has Revealed Its Illuminati Lineup & Powers, But Who's Missing?

The latest TV spot for  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  has revealed several members of the Illuminati, and the anticipation for Marvel Studios' first film of the year couldn’t be higher. Audiences are betting that the movie could make more on opening weekend than Spider-Man: No Way Home , which collected a staggering $260 million, second only to Avengers: Endgame . On May 6th, audiences will see Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch, and the X-Men–one of them, at least–assembling for Sam Raimi's chaotic multiversal thriller. Doctor Strange 2 will be Marvel Studios' 28th film, and the franchise has no signs of slowing down. MCU Phase 4 has leaned heavily into the multiverse as a concept. The events of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness pick up after the chaos unleashed in No Way Home , where Doctor Strange's spell accidentally broke open the multiverse.

Jedi: Fallen Order 2 Is Even Darker With More Clone Wars Flashbacks

Developer Respawn is expected to make  Star Wars   Jedi: The Fallen Order 2  darker than the first game, given the rule usually applies to most Star Wars sequels, and a way to achieve that could be through the use of more Clone Wars flashbacks.  Fallen Order saw protagonist Cal Kestis traumatically relive the days leading up to the execution of Order 66, with the game also finding time to spotlight the Clone Wars-era master-apprentice relationship between Cere Junda and Trilla Suduri. These sequences were some of the first game's most impactful, and if Jedi: Fallen Order 2  is even darker , it's possible that more could occur. [Warning: The following article contains spoilers for Jedi: Fallen Order.]  Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order  left the crew of the Stinger Mantis with an open-ended conclusion. The crew, consisting of protagonist Jedi Cal, pilot Greez, former Jedi Master Cere, and Nightsister Merrin, had just destroyed a Holocron containing lists of Force-sensitive child

Pokémon GO: Glalie Raid Guide (Stats & Counters) | Screen Rant

Glalie can be defeated in tier-three raids in  Pokémon GO using a strong team of Pokémon with super-effective moves. After defeating the raid boss, players will have a chance to catch Glalie. Although a Shiny version of Glalie exists in the game, the raid boss currently can't spawn one after being defeated. However, Glalie can be Mega Evolved. Winning raids against Glalie will help players earn Mega Energy to evolve it. It's possible for players to defeat Glalie alone, but since it appears as a tier-three raid boss, it's recommended that a few other trainers join the battle. Players can invite their friends in  Pokémon GO after starting a raid by using the button on the right side of the screen above the selected Pokémon team. Defeating Glalie quickly will award more Premier Balls that can be used to try to catch it after the raid is won.

Mad Max: Fury Road's Best Trick Was Dropping Miller's 3D Plans

The creators of Mad Max: Fury Road originally wanted the movie to be shot in 3D, but this would have been the kiss of death for the ambitious action spectacular. The Mad Max franchise has had a lot of great ideas over the years, but the sci-fi series has also avoided some serious pitfalls. While 2015’s belated sequel Fury Road was critically acclaimed upon its release, one of the  earliest drafts of the Mad Max sequel  was a bizarre adventure that saw Max unknowingly transporting a vial of semen cross-country. As this premise indicates, there are times when the creators of Mad Max need boundaries for their imaginations to flourish. Another such instance occurred when Mad Max: Fury Road ’s director George Miller wanted the movie to be shot in 3D, an expensive folly that would have massively increased the sequel’s already sizable budget. Mad Max: Fury Road never needed 3D to succeed, and the sequel was better off for this proposal being shot down by producers early on in the film

Dune: Spice Wars - House Atreides Faction Guide | Screen Rant

House Atreides is a powerful faction in Dune: Spice Wars , known for being firm but honorable. They are the standard “good” faction, and their abilities highlight solving matters diplomatically and politically. This isn’t to say that they are weak when it comes to combat, but it is not their focus when compared to a faction like House Harkonnen . Players will likely choose House Atreides if they wish to avoid combat in many cases. The Atreides have a few interesting abilities highlighting their political acumen. First, they have more influence when it comes to the Landsraad. This means that if they want a specific resolution passed, they will likely be able to make it happen. While all factions in Dune: Spice Wars can make treaties with each other, House Atreides doesn’t cause other factions to lose influence.
