The Legend of Zelda is one of Nintendo's most beloved video game series, and players have long hoped that it will one day get adapted into a live-action fantasy movie franchise. Although other gaming series have struggled to make the jump to live action, the expansive and immersive world of The Legend of Zelda makes it ideal for a movie series in a similar vein to The Lord of the Rings , as there are endless amounts of epic stories to explore. The characters in The Legend of Zelda are one of the series' most important aspects, though, meaning that the movie's casting needs to be perfect.

Now that The Walking Dead 's flagship show is over, the zombie-apocalypse franchise faces a huge test with its three upcoming spinoff series. Spinoffs are not new territory for the franchise, with Fear the Walking Dead , The Walking Dead: World Beyond , and Tales of the Walking Dead all expanding AMC's post-apocalyptic world. But the next wave of spinoffs will cover new ground as they follow The Walking Dead 's most popular characters — Rick Grimes, Michonne, Daryl Dixon, Negan, and Maggie — on adventures beyond the walls of Alexandria.

Missy is the best Cooper sibling in a new Young Sheldon season 6 winter premiere trailer where Sheldon discusses his attempt to drop out of college. George and Mary's only daughter has proven time and time again that not only is she loyal but also highly dependable. Granted that she made mistakes in the past, the Coopers heavily relied on her during the Young Sheldon season 5 chaos as everyone dealt with their respective problems in light of Georgie's unexpected pregnancy news. Young Sheldon season 6 has only featured Missy sporadically, but she still manages to be a scene-stealer, highlighting just how good her character is.

TJ's exit feels pointless after Manifest season 4, part 1. Played by Garrett Wareing, TJ Morrison joined the show in season 2 and left for Egypt in its penultimate episode. How he left things with Olive implied that he'd remain a part of both her life and also the passengers' efforts to stop the Death Date. Even so, he didn't make a single appearance in season 3, which treated his relationship with Olive as a thing of the past by having her become romantically involved with Levi.

Despite her death at the end of Thor: Love & Thunder , Jane Foster's MCU return has already been set up, which could see the hero have a new life as a Valkyrie. After being absent for Thor: Ragnarok , Natalie Portman reprised her role as Jane Foster for Phase 4's Love & Thunder , now wielding the rebuilt Mjolnir and operating as the Mighty Thor, a persona that gives her temporary relief from her cancer. As it turned out, Foster's transformation into the Mighty Thor was actually enabling her cancer to metastasize, causing the new superhero to pass away in an emotional moment after the battle against Gorr the God Butcher.

Throughout the first trailer for Hades 2 , a Greek goddess, known as Hecate, is seen training and urging the main protagonist, Melinoë, to follow her destiny, but Hecate herself remains a mysterious entity. Hades 2 's release date, even into early access, is unknown, so there is still plenty of time for Supergiant Games to reveal more information on Hecate and her connection to Melinoë. However, until that point, Greek Mythology offers plenty of insight into Hecate.

The Kardashians love celebrating holidays, and Christmas is definitely a big affair in the Hulu stars' households. The most famous reality TV family never disappoints when it comes to its grand winter festivities. The Kar-Jenners throw a major Christmas party every year, and 2022 was no exception. Usually, the holiday-themed parties are hosted by "momager" Kris Jenner; however, this year, the newlyweds Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian Barker decided to host Christmas Eve at their Calabasas home on December 24. The family members gave followers glimpses of the celebrations on their respective Instagram grids.

Director Rian Johnson has opened up about the backlash to Star Wars: The Last Jedi . The Last Jedi has continued to face criticism since its release five years ago, mostly centering around Finn and Rose's side plot, Rey's anti-climactic parentage reveal, and Luke lashing out at Kylo Ren after the boy was corrupted by Snoke. However, some of the criticism of the movie stemmed from its diverse casting, which resulted in a racist backlash, particularly focused on Kelly Marie Tran and her character Rose Tico.

Warning: Spoilers for Action Comics #1050! A new Superman storyline takes a moment to take a jab at a Spider-Man storyline and in the process manages to vastly improve it. The Spidey story in question is none other than the much-maligned and controversial Spider-Man: One More Day . For those who haven't read it, One More Day arrived at comic book stands in 2007 at a point where Peter Parker was in the middle of a loving marriage to Mary-Jane Watson, as well as the fallout of Civil War where he reveals his secret identity to the world.

2023 may be the year that several major movie franchises come to an end including series such as Magic Mike and Indiana Jones . Franchise films continue to dominate the box office, with all 10 of the top 10 highest-grossing films of 2022 being entries into a larger franchise including Top Gun: Maveric k and multiple Marvel Cinematic Universe films like Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder . While those franchises and others like Fast & Furious are poised to continue, studios can't cash in on every franchise forever.

The MCU 's official timeline can finally resolve the franchise's greatest continuity question - whether the old Marvel Television shows are considered canon. Continuity is an important part of any shared universe; at its most basic level, the concept of continuity ensures everything relates to everything else. That's certainly the case in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the most successful and high-profile shared universe of all. Jessica Gao, the head writer of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law , recently revealed that a dedicated Marvel employee keeps track of the timeline and serves as a resource for creatives.

M3GAN producers Jason Blum and James Wan discuss why the upcoming AI horror wasn't given an R-rating.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will doubtless see the return of some beloved features from Breath of the Wild, but one great item that appeared in its predecessor's DLC would be better off not returning. Tears of the Kingdom faces the lofty task of making a world that felt incredibly new in the first game fresh once more. Including the wrong item, no matter how much it has to offer, could prove to be a negative.

On December 28, 2022, Stan Lee would have turned one-hundred years old. To celebrate the occasion, writer Brian Michael Bendis recently shared a short comic created shortly after his passing,

An upgraded version of the Nintendo Switch is one of the most anticipated possibilities of the current console generation, but in a bizarre decision, Nintendo appears to have done away with plans to release a Switch Pro. The Nintendo Switch is deep into its lifespan, having released several years before Sony and Microsoft's most recent consoles, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S. Many people have viewed the announcement of an enhanced version of the system as a likelihood for several years now, but according to recent rumors, fans looking forward to a Switch Pro may be left disappointed.

Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin says HBO Max/WB shakeups have impacted development on the spinoffs. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire book series spawned a television phenomenon with HBO’s Game of Thrones . Having learned how huge big-budget fantasy storytelling could be on TV, HBO later moved to follow up GoT by launching a whole flotilla of spinoffs. And going all-in on GoT was proven to be a good gamble when the first of these spinoffs, House of the Dragon , arrived to huge fanfare and massive ratings in 2022.

Vin Diesel announces the timeline for the release of the first Fast X trailer. The franchise started back in 2001 with The Fast and the Furious . Since then, it has ballooned into a globe-trotting blockbuster franchise that only gets larger with each installment. 2023's Fast X will serve as the first step to concluding the franchise, with Fast & Furious 11 later set to conclude the main series.

The CW 's end-of-year ratings may end up proving what shows will survive into the coming season. The network is currently undergoing a major scheduling shakeup after being put up for sale in early 2022 and having the bulk of their shares taken over by the media company Nexstar. In addition to a rash of cancelations earlier this year and the announcement that the next seasons of several popular series, including Riverdale and The Flash, would be their last, the company revealed that only the highest-performing shows this season have a chance of carrying over into their 2023-2024 slate.

The Bachelorette alum Josh Seiter has most recently been linked to 90 Day Fiancé franchise star Rose Vega, but hers aren’t the only DMs he’s slid into. Josh was a contestant on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of The Bachelorette in 2015, though he didn’t last long. The self-described law student/exotic dancer was sent home during week 1, and he never returned to Bachelor Nation on any of the franchise’s spin-offs

House of the Dragon 's opening credits in the Succession style might just be better than the actual opening. When the highly-anticipated Game of Thrones prequel series premiered this year on August 21 on HBO, viewers were puzzled that it didn't include an opening credits sequence. The next week, House of the Dragon episode 2 would showcase its new title sequence depicting blood streaming through Old Valyria. However, some viewers were still upset that House of the Dragon opted to reuse the Game of Thrones theme song composed by Ramin Djawadi rather than premiering something new.

Concept art has been revealed for James Cameron's unmade Spider-Man live-action movie that got scrapped in the 1990s. One of the iconic Marvel heroes to be reimagined for the big screen several times is Peter Parker, a.k.a. Spider-Man. From Tobey Maguire, and Andrew Garfield, to Tom Holland, the web-slinger has had his fair share cinematically. It even got to the point where the three live-action versions of Spider-Man got to come together in Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, a different Spider-Man franchise almost came to life in the 1990s from the infamous Titanic and Avatar filmmaker. While Cameron had plans to bring the web-slinger to theaters, Peter's big-screen debut had to wait till the early 2000s.

Maddi Reese on Southern Hospitality thinks going back to her ex-boyfriend Trevor was a good idea, but Joe Bradley has a lot more to offer her. The new Bravo series follows Southern Charm star, Leva Bonaparte and her staff as they manage Leva's nightclub, Republic Garden & Lounge. Joe, the VIP host of the club, expressed early into the show that he has feelings for Maddi. Unfortunately, he hasn't yet figured out how to express these feelings to her. While he tried to figure it out, Maddi got back together with Trevor, and now he's stuck watching the two rekindle their relationship.

Julia Trubkina and Brandon Gibbs were known for their tension with his parents on 90 Day Fiancé , but they still shared special moments with Ron and Betty Gibbs, which they posted to Instagram this year. It's possible that all the bad blood is a thing of the past in 2022. Brandon and Julia love adding skit videos with his parents, and have seemed very close to the older couple as of late. This has led to many sweet and humorous 2022 moments featuring Brandon, Julia, Betty, and Ron.

90 Day Fiancé stars always share catchy content around Christmas, but a few have baffled fans by posting the weirdest holiday season posts on Instagram. Over the years, the hit TLC show has featured many cast members who’ve stunned viewers through their eccentric behavior. One such name is Steven Johnston, who featured alongside his Russian lover, Alina Johnston. Fans called out the 25-year-old man during the show for his childish demeanor and baby talks.

With the current state of Wakanda, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever gives a glimpse into T’Challa’s complicated legacy. His decision to reveal Wakanda’s secrets to the world was proof of T’Challa’s unconventional reign as king and showed his vision of leading the nation into a new path. While it left the fictional African country vulnerable, part of it was due to events that no one could have predicted like Thanos’ attack on Earth and T’Challa’s passing.

There’s a major difference between the super serum given to Steve Rogers in Captain America and the one that the character receives in the Marvel comics. The MCU often makes changes to the characters that they adapt, going as far as to have Black Widow not have a super serum at all. However, Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers is so close to his comics counterpart that it might seem strange that there’s actually such a major change.

Tom Cruise's only directing credit is an episode of Showtime's forgotten noir series Fallen Angels . Throughout his career, Cruise has worked with some of the greatest filmmakers who have ever lived. He's collaborated with Ridley and Tony Scott, Michael Mann, Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg and many, many more. He was so invested in working with Kubrick that he and then-wife Nicole Kidman committed to Eyes Wide Shut's mammoth shoot, which took 15 months and is still recognized as one of the longest, continuous movie productions.

Kurt Angle's podcast stands out from the crowd because of how candid he is, and his recent comments about Triple H give WWE fans some insight into The Game's mind. It's tough to think of anyone who took to the professional wrestling business quicker than the Olympic gold medalist. His first match was at Survivor Series in 1999, embarking on a remarkable career full of ups and downs. Angle might have spent less time around the wrestling business than Triple H, but his word still carries a great deal of weight because of everything he's been through.

2022 was a convoluted year for DC announcements both in film and television. Starting with a new Batman reboot, 2022 saw DC movies' release date changes, cancelations of both movies and shows, surprising returns, and shocking farewells. Between Henry Cavill’s short-lived Superman return and the prospect of a new DCU in 2023, 2022 might have been the penultimate year of the DCEU as the franchise has known it since Man of Steel . The CW’s Arrowverse is also approaching its ending with The Flash season 9.

Why no Rick inside the Central Finite Curve lives with Diane is one of Rick and Morty ’s biggest mysteries, but a season 1 detail can help explain this season 5 plot hole. Continuing Rick and Morty ’s tradition of combining a few “canon episodes” with several episodic adventures, Rick and Morty season 6 has only answered a couple of questions audiences had at the end of the previous season. Although it was revealed that Morty is Prime Rick’s grandson, almost everything else regarding C-137 Diane’s death remains a mystery, including why no Rick inside the Central Finite Curve seems to have had a happily ever after with their family.

While the BBC’s Sherlock was one of the most popular adaptations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s detective stories, its John Watson almost wasn’t played by Martin Freeman. From 2010 to 2017, Freeman was the best friend, assistant, and former flatmate to Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock Holmes. Despite Sherlock ’s problems in seasons 3 and 4 and what was seen as a decline in quality after the first two seasons, the success of the series was mainly attributed to the two actors.

Towards the end of its original eight-season run, the much-loved thriller series Dexter took a turn for the worse. The conclusion to the story of Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), the vigilante serial killer struggling between the urges of his " Dark Passenger " and " Harry's Code " of ethics, was unfortunately rushed and unsatisfying. Dexter ended up escaping justice for his crimes as the Bay Harbor Butcher, while his son and girlfriend escaped together in another direction. Additionally, the finale included an unsatisfying death for Dexter's adopted sister, Debra Morgan (Jennifer Carpenter) after Dexter mercifully turned off her life-support. Yet a big reason why the ending was so unsatisfying can actually be traced back to several seasons before Dexter 's finale when the show made its first major mistake.

Roger Moore felt that Daniel Craig was the best James Bond actor of all. Moore tied with Sean Connery for number of appearances as 007, with both having played the part seven times. That said, Connery's final appearance was "unofficial" outing Never Say Never Again , which was produced outside the EON franchise. The two were friends in real life, with Diamonds Are Forever being Moore's favorite Connery Bond . Their approach to the character himself was also quite different. Despite the outlandish storylines and gadgets, Connery sought to inject reality and groundedness, while Moore focused on humor instead. The few times Moore's Bond went truly dark often left the actor uncomfortable.

Star Trek popularized the term " warp speed " but the franchise has created several alternatives to travel by warp drive technology. By the time of Star Trek: The Next Generation , warp drive had been in existence for roughly three centuries, and had progressed considerably in the time since Zefram Cochrane's first warp flight. Warp drive allows Star Trek 's starships to travel at speeds faster than light by forming a warp bubble that locally distorts the space-time continuum to enable the ship to travel at a degree of warp velocities. It's the most widely used form of interstellar travel in the 24th century, but recently some replacements have been introduced, borne out of necessity.

Here's why Ben Affleck's Daredevil/Matt Murdock cameo was cut from Elektra . While comic book movies once struggled to find success outside of the Batman or Superman franchises, they started taking off in a big way during the 2000s thanks to films like Spider-Man . Unfortunately, there was still a belief among studios that female-led superhero movies didn't work, which to them was reinforced by the failure of 2004's Catwoman starring Halle Berry or by 2005's Elektra . This was fronted by Jennifer Garner, who reprised the titular role from 2003's Daredevil , fronted by Ben Affleck.

Mace Windu isn't the only Jedi in Star Wars to wield a purple lightsaber. When Samuel L. Jackson joined the Star Wars prequel films, he made an unusual request to George Lucas. He wanted his Jedi, Mace Windu, to have a unique purple lightsaber. Lucas initially refused, insisting lightsabers came in only three colors - blue, green, and red - but eventually relented. The purple lightsaber became Mace Windu's trademark weapon, setting a precedent for many other colors of lightsaber blades .

Unsurprisingly for a hugely popular sitcom like Cheers , the network attempted a spinoff, but Frasier was actually the NBC show's second spinoff attempt. Frasier focused on the bar's resident psychiatrist Dr. Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) returning home to Seattle to reconnect with his family and become a talk show host on local radio. Premiering in 1993, Frasier ran for as long as its parent show Cheers , and quickly became an iconic sitcom in its own right.

The tale of Tommy Shelby and his notorious Birmingham gang might have come to an end, but fans can get to enjoy series creator Steven Knight’s new work. Knight is now steering the new BBC drama , SAS: Rogue Heroes , which he, himself, has admitted is quite similar to Peaky Blinders ( via Radio Times ).

The Marvel Cinematic Universe could have another secret mutant thanks to Spider-Man: Homecoming 's Liz Toomes. Due to 20th Century Fox owning the X-Men movie rights for decades, Marvel Studios has not been able to use mutants in the MCU until recently. While the franchise is taking it slow when it comes to introducing a rebooted X-Men team, progress is being made to incorporate characters connected to them. This has been abundantly clear throughout Phase 4 as several MCU mutants have been revealed.

Ten years after the first The Hunger Games film premiered, there's new interest in the series thanks to the upcoming The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes . The movie adaptation of the prequel novel is set for a Nov. 17, 2023 release.

A post to the official Back to the Future Twitter page debunks rumors of an animated series reboot for the time-travel franchise. Back to the Future first premiered in 1985 and quickly became the highest-grossing film of the year worldwide. It received critical acclaim for its originality and was nominated for four Academy Awards. Back to the Future 's massive success allowed for the release of back-to-back sequel films debuting in 1989 and 1990, respectively. In 1991, an animated television adaptation of the series was released, running for two seasons before it was canceled due to low ratings. Though there have been no new major additions to the franchise, there have been rumors of a Back to the Future reboot for several years now.

While audiences eagerly await his dive into the macabre with Renfield , Nicolas Cage's National Treasure 3 has gotten an optimistic update from producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Cage was the face of the adventure franchise for its first two films, starring as historian, cryptographer and treasure hunter Benjamin Gates as he investigates treasures with major ties to American history with the help of archivist Dr. Abigail Chase, computer expert Riley Poole and his father, Patrick. Though met with mixed reviews, both National Treasure movies were hit with audiences, who have held out hope for a third film, and while Disney has focused their efforts on the sequel show, National Treasure: Edge of History , the chances for another feature adventure look to be bright.

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Stargirl: The Lost Children #2! The Golden Age of DC Comics is riddled with goofy costumes and gadgets that have long since been buried by its heroes. Characters like Green Arrow and Batman, in particular, built their entire identities around gimmicks, from playing dress-up as Robin Hood to tormenting villains with bat-shaped boomerangs. While both have grown into serious and respected heroes over the years, there are some superhero gadgets that deserve to stay buried.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has shared its pick for December’s James Webb Space Telescope picture of the month, and fittingly, it’s a shot of a bright, rather festive-looking spiral galaxy 220 million light-years away. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a massive infrared telescope currently on a search for clues into the history and evolution of the universe, going all the way back to its beginning. It’s an international collaboration between ESA, NASA, the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), and others, designed to succeed the Hubble Space Telescope — and probe deeper than it ever did.

James Gunn will build better communication with DC by providing synergy between the DCU and the DC Comics universe. James Gunn, alongside Peter Safran, is set to be the co-head of DC in the future. His control spans DC television, film, and animation but doesn't extend to publishing, specifically the comic book division. DC Comics has been continually producing content since 1937 and has never been truly connected to its film adaptations. While films like The Dark Knight have been largely successful, DC has kept the two mediums separate.

Michelle Monaghan goes to great lengths to keep her child safe in the new trailer for Blood . A well-respected actor, Monaghan is best known for her roles in Gone Baby Gone , Kiss Kiss Bang Bang , and the Mission: Impossible franchise. She also starred in this year’s Echoes , playing twins Gina and Leni on the hit Netflix miniseries. Her upcoming projects include Spinning Gold and Bad Monkey . Before those, though, Monaghan is turning her attention to the horror genre for her latest film.

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet , like any other Pokémon games, introduced a variety of new Pokémon for trainers to catch - though the rarest non-cosmetic form is likely not a Pokémon that many fans would predict. In addition to new species, there are a couple of regional forms that can be found in Paldea, which is much less than the amount found in Alola, Galar, and Hisui. One of these new regional forms has a secret rarity, however.

Edge hasn't been seen on WWE television since losing to Finn Balor in an I Quit match at Extreme Rules on October 8. Since then, the group he created following WrestleMania 38, Judgment Day, has been running roughshod over Raw 's roster. The group got the better of Rey Mysterio and is currently engaged in a feud with The OC. Fans might wonder what's going on with Edge, given that he signed a three-year deal before his return at the Royal Rumble in 2020. The 2023 edition of that premium live event is right around the corner, meaning that the Rated R Superstar's contract might be wrapping up soon.

Since 1995, Pixar has followed the same formula for 20 of their 29 movies, " what if X had feelings ," and it looks like their method won't change anytime soon. Pixar is known not only for its major contribution to computer-animated films and profitability but also for its emotional storytelling. A large part of Pixar's success is due to their out-of-the-box thinking and unusual choice of protagonists. With the recent release of the teaser trailer for Pixar's upcoming movie Elemental , it makes sense to look back on which of their previous features followed a similar format.

Ahead of her debut, The Witcher showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich teases the future of Minnie Driver's Blood Origin elf character. Based on Andrzej Sapkowski's fantasy novels of the same name, the Netflix franchise centers on the titular monster hunter as he takes down various ravenous creatures across The Continent and getting wrapped up in world-changing destinies. The Witcher: Blood Origin will expand the franchise by taking viewers 1,200 years in the past and exploring such major events as the creation of the first Witcher, the Elven civilization in their prime, and the infamous Conjunction of the Spheres, which introduced monsters to the world and led to the fall of the Elves.

It seems that the 90 Day Fiancé franchise alum Jesse Meester is not over his breakup with Darcey Silva, as he is still blaming her for his shortcomings. Fans may remember Jesse and Darcey from their appearance on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 1 in 2017. The couple documented their chaotic relationship during the season, which convinced many fans they won't walk down the aisle. Eventually, Darcey and Jesse broke up after accusing each other of being unfaithful.

According to showrunners Eric Heisserer and Daegan Fryklind, Shadow & Bone season 2 makes a lot of changes to Alina Starkov and the Crows' stories from the "Grishaverse" novel series. Netflix's fantasy series is adapted from Leigh Bardugo's young adult novels, with the first season covering the events of Shadow & Bone , the first novel set in the universe.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny will not feature the controversial character of Shia LaBeouf's Mutt from the previous film Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull , but audiences will find out what happened to him.

Melissa Joan Hart addresses whether she'd return for a Sabrina the Teenage Witch reboot. Although there has since been a new take on the witchy Sabrina, with Netflix aiming for a darker iteration of the story that stars Mad Men actor Kiernan Shipka in the title role, Hart's version of the character continues to be fondly remembered even several years after its finale aired. Sabrina the Teenage Witch embraced the mix of magic and sitcom tropes, and was further aided by the inclusion of the talking cat Salem and two quirky aunts who couldn't be any more different, even though they're united in their support of Sabrina.

Robert Pattinson's Bruce Wayne from The Batman gets a Batman: The Animated Series- style fan poster as it pays homage to the late Kevin Conroy. The Dark Knight made his way back to the big screen in 2022 through Matt Reeves' The Batman , which marked the latest cinematic reboot of the DC icon. While not a traditional origin story, Pattinson's DC movie explored Bruce in his second year as the infamous Gotham City vigilante. Inspired by a noir detective story, The Batman exists outside the DC Universe, allowing Reeves to create his own continuity and tone for the franchise.

Jodie Sweetin offers a great explanation of why Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen didn't return as Michelle in Fuller House . Every single core member from Full House returned for Netflix's spin-off except for the Olsen Twins. Before Fuller House premiered, there were contradicting reports regarding their involvement. Eventually, however, it became clear that they weren't going to return for the sequel. While the show initially made an effort to include Michelle in its storytelling via various references, not to mention meta-commentary, Michelle was ultimately cast aside because of the Olsens' absence.

Top Gun: Maverick gave Captain Pete Mitchell a happy ending, but the latest update on Top Gun 3 suggests there is only one way for Tom Cruise's veteran pilot's story to end. In a recent panel, Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski revealed that Captain Mitchell has not retired just yet. Speaking at Deadline 's Contenders LA3C panel, Kosinski stated, " It seems to me at the end of this film that Maverick has some gas left in the tank. He’s not settling down." That all but guarantees that, if Top Gun 3 does get the go ahead, Tom Cruise will be returning, despite his character's perfect ending in Top Gun: Maverick.

While South Park rarely takes a side on any issues, the show’s best Christmas episode in years proved that the satirical comedy could benefit from doing so more often. South Park ’s creators have, since the show’s inception, prided themselves on being “ equal opportunity offenders .” South Park aims to be a bipartisan political satire that takes aim at “ everyone ” and mocks both sides of any given issue. The show’s commitment to offending viewers via shock value humor, and the willingness of South Park ’s creators to stand by their work, is hard to question.

Miang Moonspell is a playable character in Vampire Survivors : Legacy of the Moonspell, who can be unlocked in the DLC's new map, Mt. Moonspell. Her starting weapon is Silver Wind, an armament that fires out orb-shaped particles in oval shapes, and enemies slain with this weapon have a slight chance of dropping hearts that heal her. If players select Arcanas such as Sarabande of Healing (VI) or Twilight Requiem (II), Miang's Silver Wind can have more potent effects, such as explosive projectiles or double healing. Accordingly, Miang Moonspell is an excellent early-game character capable of sustaining her HP while covering a decent AoE to take out enemies.

Netflix is expanding The Witcher universe with The Witcher: Blood Origin release, but the franchise already treading on thin ice. With Rings of Power and House of the Dragon boasting big studio budgets, massive followings, and intricate lore, The Witcher: Blood Origin has its work cut out to compete with these fantasy pop culture shows of the new age. The Witcher franchise is ambitiously trying to establish itself as a new pillar of the genre but has been riddled with challenges from its recast controversies and added pressure from the success of its contemporaries.

The global opening weekend box office for Avatar: The Way of Water will place it in the Top 10 chart for 2022. The film is the long-awaited sequel to James Cameron's 2009 mega-hit Avatar , which quickly rose to become the highest-grossing film of all time off the back of its spectacular CGI and world-building. It features the return of lead characters Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) and picks up with their lives a decade later, where they are now parents who must defend their home, Pandora, against more human invaders.

A seemingly minor moment in Anakin Skywalker’s Legends-era Clone Wars adventures changes the Star Wars franchise forever, regardless of continuity. Although Anakin inched ever closer to his inevitable fall to the dark side of the Force during the three-year war, his interactions with the Republic’s Clone Troopers frequently brought out his best qualities. The Clone Troopers themselves, who are often dismissed as organic automatons by both Star Wars characters and the fandom, are in turn humanized by Anakin’s actions, creating a trend that is alive and well in the Star Wars franchise’s ongoing canon.

As both Star Wars and the MCU closed out the 2022 year, Andor became one of the year's best TV shows, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 's record-breaking success at the box office has fans more excited than ever for Phase Five and beyond. Many actors have taken part in both franchises in significant roles, such as Oscar Isaac, who portrayed Poe Dameron before appearing in Moon Knight . While neither Marc Spector, Steven Grant, nor Jake Lockley could ever rival one of the best starpilots in all of Star Wars , other MCU characters have showcased the potential to do so.

For as long as DC Comics has existed, Superman , Batman , and Wonder Woman have all been prominently featured as individuals, members of the Justice League , and as the iconic 'DC Trinity'--the Big Three of the DC Universe.

The Five Nights At Freddy's movie has added two veteran actors in Matthew Lillard and Josh Hutcherson. The film, which has been delayed several times due to production issues, has been in development since 2015. While there have been several different versions of the script, it appears that there will finally be an opportunity for a security guard to suffer through the worst children's play place of all time.

Marvel Studios' Phase 5 ensemble The Marvels will finally see three generations of Captain Marvel -affiliated characters—Carol Danvers, Monica Rambeau, and Kamala Khan—united on the screen as one. However, two popular Captains Marvel originating from Marvel Comics seem to have evaded the eye of the general public. It only takes one (or two) effective cosplays to remind everyone that the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) may be in need of additional heroes to its cosmic roster.

Koraidon is one of the best Pokémon to use in Tera Raids in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet . Tera Raids is a more difficult battle mode than the typical fights players will find in the game. However, players can develop one-of-a-kind builds using Pokémon Scarlet and Violet , which will give them an advantage in these Tera Raids. As long as Trainers know how to build Koraidon, he can be one of the Pokémon that substantially reduces the difficulty of these encounters and makes them much easier to manage.

Twister 2 is in talks with Minari's Lee Isaac Chung to direct. A sequel to the classic 1996 disaster film has been in development since 2020 originally with Joseph Kosinski in early negotiations to direct, who eventually stepped down due to scheduling conflicts with Top Gun: Maverick .

Smith, has been searching for a replacement ever since with the shortlist reportedly including some top-tier talent. Now, it appears a front-runner for the highly-coveted job has finally emerged.

Amidst uncertainty about the nature of the character's role, James Gunn explains whether Adam Warlock is a hero or villain in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 . Despite being depicted as a clearcut hero in Marvel Comics, Adam Warlock was created by Ayesha during Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 's post-credits scene for the purpose of destroying the titular team. In the third film, the Golden Gladiator will be properly introduced and played by Midsommar 's Will Poulter. The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 trailer continued to paint Adam Warlock as a bad guy, leading to questions about whether he will actually be a villain, or if his role will remain faithful to the comics.

Following his latest Superman departure from the DC Universe, Henry Cavill may have found his first post-superhero gig with a Warhammer TV show. The fall of 2022 was a rocky one for Cavill as he made headlines when he returned to the DCU as Superman in Black Adam . Despite plans to be back full-time, DC Studios revealed this week that a new Superman movie is in the works, focusing on a younger Clark Kent and ruling out Cavill as the lead.

How Darth Maul survived the Battle of Naboo is not shown in current Star Wars canon, but it is depicted in a Star Wars: The Clone Wars spinoff comic. While The Clone Wars itself is part of the current Star Wars canon, this comic, along with other The Clone Wars spinoff material, is in a strange gray area of Star Wars continuity where it is not officially considered part of the post-2014 canon, yet it has no place in Legends (the original Star Wars timeline) either. The comic in question, despite its status in canon limbo, fits far better into the current canon than the Legends timeline, not unlike The Clone Wars itself.

HBO’s The Last of Us TV show arrives early in 2023, and the trailers have already created a buzz — both among fans of games and people simply hyped for a Pedro Pascal zombie show with Bella Ramsey, aka Game of Thrones Lyanna Mormont, along for the ride. The Last of Us on HBO adapts the popular post-apocalyptic video game series from Naughty Dog and Sony.

Love them or leave them, the Lord of the Rings trilogy of films by Peter Jackson is in some ways very different from the novels fans all know and love. Some of the changes were more aesthetic than not, while others viewers will never be able to forgive. Some of the changes were made for the sake of pacing or timing, and, to be fair, the movies would have all been at least twice as long without those edits. But that doesn’t always make the changes sit right with fans.

James Gunn has confirmed that he and co-CEO of DC Studios, Peter Safran, have readied a slate for their upcoming conception of the new DC Universe . In November, Gunn and Safran were confirmed as the new co-CEOs and co-chairpersons of the DCU (formerly DCEU) in an effort to refresh the franchise and streamline its story. Gunn has been working on a 10-year-plan for the DCU, having previously directed the acclaimed film The Suicide Squad and overseen the HBO Max series Peacemaker .

Tyler Gillett, part of the directorial duo behind the upcoming Scream VI , reveals the unexpected upside of Neve Campbell’s departure from the beloved slasher series.

While this year’s installment would feature the return of Campbell alongside her original co-stars Courteney Cox and David Arquette, Campbell would later drop out of plans for Scream VI over a highly publicized pay dispute.

Avatar: The Way of Water director James Cameron talks similarities between his growing franchise and pop culture phenomenons Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings. While film and television franchises have always been a staple of the entertainment industry, the prominence of streaming in modern times has brought franchise story-telling to a new level, with properties such as the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Star Wars expanding their vast catalogs via Disney+ shows and live-action films. Many streaming services have backed large-scale fantasy epics as they seek to break into expanded universe territory such as Amazon's The Rings of Power and Netflix's The Witcher , though Cameron's plans with Avatar: The Way of Water through Avatar 5 solely exist in the film space, for now.

Sadie Sink recalls how emotional the last day filming The Whale was for her. The psychological drama, directed by Darren Aronofsky, tells the story of a lonely English teacher who attempts to reconnect with his estranged daughter, seeking redemption while struggling with obesity and personal trauma. Written by Samuel D. Hunter as an adaptation of his 2012 play of the same name, The Whale premiered on December 9 and has garnered overall positive reactions from critics and audiences alike, with much of the praise surrounding Brendan Fraser’s lead performance. In addition to Sink and Fraser, who play Ellie and Charlie respectively, the film’s cast includes Hong Chau, Ty Simpkins, and Samantha Morton.

Over the course of 50 years, Steven Spielberg has directed 34 movies — here are all Steven Spielberg movies ranked from worst to best. Steven Spielberg movies have made the director become a cultural icon over the course of his career, with his films inspiring the next generation of filmmakers for decades. Steven Spielberg is one of the few directors who can shift effortlessly between crowd-pleasing blockbusters, and prestigious award-baiting fares. Furthermore, movies directed by Spielberg often manage to combine these two facets of Hollywood filmmaking, which is an even rarer feat. This ability to cater to both critics and general audiences comes down to his natural gifts as a storyteller; Spielberg imbues his movies with heart, which makes many of them enduring classics.

Plenty of additional footage was added in the Lord of the Rings extended editions, much of which answers lingering questions the theatrical trilogy didn't. One year after the theatrical cut of each Lord of the Rings movie, an extended version would be released on home video media. These bumper editions add tons of new footage to all three movies, elevating the Lord of the Rings extended editions' length from the theatrical runtime of 9 hours and 3 minutes to a whopping 11 hours and 36 minutes. The new footage consists of deleted scenes, as well as longer versions of sequences already in the movies, and the Lord of the Rings theatrical vs extended debate still rages within the fanbase.

The Harry Potter universe is known for its fantastic mysteries. Reading those books was like traveling down an endless dungeon, with new twists and shadows around every corner. However, most of those mysteries were answered at the end of Deathly Hallows. Or were they?

The Paradox cousin of Misdreavus, Flutter Mane hosts powerful statistics that make it a considerable team member players can build to use in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet 's greatest challenges, Tera Raid Battles. Although an exclusive Pokémon to Pokémon Scarlet , Flutter Mane is a rare creature that may be found and traded just like any other pocket monster in preparation for these intense battles. The right build for Flutter Mane focuses on its strengths, giving it attacks that capitalize on the destructive Special Attack statistic that befits its Ghost-/Fairy-type demeanor.

December 13th’s Wordle answer may not be the most challenging word to guess and can be solved within six attempts if players use the right starting words.

Players can avoid breaking their streak by using hints or a different mode the game has to offer.

Dick Grayson is one of those characters that has managed to constantly evolve with the times; he can tread the darkness while remaining a light, accessible character. He was Spider-Man before there was one. He even has his own fan-run database, which thankfully—though surprisingly—isn’t called Dickipedia. Dick Grayson is one of the oldest characters in DC Comics history with almost eighty years’ worth of adventures spanning dozens of continuities. To break down the best Nightwing comics is a difficult task.

Sara has, however, shown the kinder part of her heart on certain occasions.

The Geth make prominent appearances in Mass Effect 4 ’s teaser videos and images, which opens up the potential for the Normandy’s AI, EDI, to return to the story. This possibility is quite confounding, given the different endings of Mass Effect 3 and EDI’s variable fate. Yet, it seems that the trilogy’s conclusion may be more open to interpretation than once believed. Since the Geth are somehow returning in Mass Effect 4 , EDI must surely have also survived the ending of the trilogy.

Warning! SPOILERS for Young Sheldon season 6. Young Sheldon season 6 just contradicted an important part of George Cooper's arc on the family comedy. Despite not physically appearing on The Big Bang Theory , Sheldon's father was already an established character in the TV franchise, thanks to his son's stories about him. Young Sheldon presents a different version of the character, however. Instead of the lazy, drunk father Sheldon used to describe him, the prequel's George is more of a flawed, but devoted family man. While CBS still figures out a way to reconcile the two different versions of George, Young Sheldon has just contradicted its own take on the Cooper patriarch.

If you have friends who mysteriously vanished from society and social media for large chunks of time this past summer, it very likely wasn’t anything supernatural — or was it? Actually, it may have been the strange supernatural occurrences taking place in Hawkins, Indiana back in 1985 that captured them. If your friends were temporarily out of touch, it could be because they were at home binge-watching the weird world of Stranger Things , one of the most wildly popular shows of all those that have come out recently on Netflix, Amazon Prime , and beyond. Some of them emerged from soaking in the supernatural alone with their TV rubbing their stunned eyes and wearing fan gear like some of the best Stranger Things apparel choices, including officially licensed tee-shirts, pajamas, and even cosplay costumes. Once you’ve spent a week in the world of Hawkins Indiana, it’s hard to let it go, as you may have found out, or have yet to find out in full.

The space-based group of adventurers the Guardians of the Galaxy , led by half-human/half-alien Peter Quill a.k.a.

When they enter the collection, Vampire Survivors completists will notice a new item to unlock called Seal . Its description reads, "Banish 10 or more weapons in a single run".

Huge announcements for Final Fantasy 16 and Death Stranding 2 may have been the big headlines from this year's Game Awards but, for many, it was a reveal trailer from indie studio Supergiant Games that caused the most excitement.

2022 has seen a revival of sorts for the slasher subgenre thanks to original films like X and Bodies Bodies Bodies , and new entries to iconic franchises like Scream and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre .

The 2022 Game Awards revealed that Batman would be returning to the Arkhamverse, with a new trailer for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League confirming that the Dark Knight is joining Superman as a mind-controlled villain. This has caused some confusion online considering the ending of Batman: Arkham Knight in which Batman's identity was revealed, and it's implied that Bruce Wayne faked his own death soon after. The game then ended with what appeared to be a new version of Batman - or a new hero altogether - terrorizing Gotham's criminals, although whether this was Bruce was not revealed.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is a new game out for consoles and PC, but many beginners may want to know some essential topics before delving into the game. The game focuses around defeating Lilith, who has been resurrected thanks to the efforts of Hydra. The game is a type of RPG, but some of the card mechanics might confuse new players.

An excellent holiday treat for many newcomers or veteran Trainers in Pokémon GO would undoubtedly be to catch the elusive Ditto, the well-known Transform Pokémon capable of becoming any pocket monster opponent. Fortunately, this transformation ability does not apply to all pocket monsters in Pokémon GO , as it likely would be absolute chaos dealing with the RNG of every catch to find Ditto. Instead, Ditto's shapeshifting ability only applies to a small rotating pool of Pokémon, which changes as time passes. In other words, if Trainers ever encounter one of the pocket monsters in this pool, there is a slight chance they might have found a rare Ditto.

JRPG fans can finally mark their calendars for one of the most highly anticipated games of 2023, Final Fantasy 16 , which now has an official release date.

Since that debut trailer, Square Enix has continued to update fans on the progress, keeping FF16 in the minds of its future players.

With New World , meta builds aren't always necessarily the best builds, especially in PvP. The most effective builds for war and small-scale PvP aren't the same. One of the game's most enjoyable features is the uniqueness of each server. Players should consider who their opponents will be when making a build. Small groups of players can often carry their company and win wars. The best build is the one where players can be the most useful. Company and faction members will have their opinion about the "best" build, even if they don't use the weapon, and communicating with the server is always insightful.

The evolved form of Bagon and the middle transformation before the Dragon-and Flying-type Salamance, Shelgon appears in the wilds of Pokémon Violet , an exclusive Pokémon to the Paldea Region that rarely appears in a specific location for players to find and catch. Although players could alternatively evolve Bagon into Shelgon at level 30 through training, acquiring Shelgon saves time for those looking to obtain the powerful Salamance quickly without as much grinding. Existing both in the wild and through Tera Raid Battles, Shelgon remains a solid Dragon-type with great defenses as it prepares to blossom into the mighty form that awaits it.

There are a lot of Water-type Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet , 54 if Rotom's washer-form is included, but the question remains, which is best? While a Water-Type Pokémon can thus use surf to get around certain obstacles is not necessary for Generation IX, it is still a very useful typing to have. Water-types might be weak to Grass- and Electric-type attacks, but they're resistant to Fire-, Ice-, Steel, and Water-type attacks, and thanks to the Same Type Attack Bonus (STAB), are excellent for dealing with Fire-, Ground-, and Rock-type Pokémon.

December 8th’s Wordle answer might not be the most challenging puzzle the game has thrown at players, but it could cause players some trouble. Today’s puzzle features two vowels in odd positions, which could be why players waste their attempts using random words.

Phase 3 of the MCU pushed the universe beyond its already impressive heights to produce several record-breaking movies and set up large parts of the even more ambitious Phase 4 and beyond. With Phase 4 now at an end, it's a very interesting time to look at how the structure of Phase 3 shaped what fans experienced in the past few years.

Generally, Sierra is the weakest of the three Team GO Rocket Leaders due to her weaker lineups in Pokémon GO , and her new team for December 2022 is no exception. Nevertheless, newcomers or more casual fans might still struggle to defeat her, especially if they are not aware of which pocket monsters properly counter her lineup. Players who fit into this category should bear in mind that CP value also plays an important role when facing Sierra in combat. For instance, facing the Rocket Leader's Sableye with a Fairy-type combatant is a sound decision, but this strategy might be ineffective if the chosen combatant has a CP below 500.

Ceruledge evolves after players capture Charcadet and give them the Auspicious Armor exclusively in Pokémon Violet , transforming the Pokémon into a powerful Fire-/Ghost-type that may be enhanced even further through specific held items. With a strong Attack and an impressive Special Defense stat, players may invest in various builds when training Ceruledge, either through the moves it learns or the more nuanced EV boosts gained from numerous encounters. Since every Pokémon on a player's team is capable of holding a single item, the choice of whether to boost the offensive or defensive potential of Ceruledge relies entirely on preference, with no right or wrong answer.

Team GO Rocket Boss Giovanni is back for the holiday season in December 2022 with a lineup slightly different from his previous team in Pokémon GO . He still finds it hard to part with his beloved Persian and yet holds onto Rhyperior from earlier lineups. However, he has now swapped Machamp and Nidoking for Nidoqueen and Steelix, two combatants that can be just as devasting in the arena. Furthermore, his previous Legendary of Shadow Latios has now been swapped with Shadow Mewtwo, an opponent bound to give many Trainers a rough time.

December 7th’s Wordle answer is a bit complicated to solve due to the antiquated nature of the word and the complex spelling. While today’s answer was commonly used in medieval times, it isn’t strictly used in the daily lexicon. However, players who are looking to solve today’s Wordle puzzle should use words that contain two vowels next to each other. However, that is only the starting point, and many players might find themselves stumped after a few attempts.
