This week, the great Sadie Rose Darwish returns to discuss Greta Gerwig's star-studded 2019 adaptation of Little Women, the movie that stands as the last major work of Saoirse's career (so far). Listen in as we dig into the Florence Pugh of it all, the Timothée Chalamet of it all, the Emma Watson of it all, and, somehow for the first time, the Meryl Streep of it all. Hosted on Acast.

This is a perfect opportunity to hear from the man in that director seat behind the curtain on a huge amount of topics and angles including the rule-based world of film making, his work on Locke, Peaky Blinders, Taboo and all the rest in his insane body of work, his new film Serenity and how he lucked out on getting his first choice cast picks, playing with reality, how we are all the lead roles in our own realities, the BBC leaving him alone in creating, the far and wide fans of Peaky, how one gets a cast together and that old unfinished story of Florence Pugh trying to smuggle she and Pip into Peaky too!

Message Dan and MikeWe finally sit down to unpack Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the fourth installment in Tom Holland's run as Peter Parker and the first Spidey film from director Destin Daniel Cretton. Picking up four years after No Way Home's spell erased Peter from the world's memory, this is a noticeably darker, more isolated take on the character — Aunt May is gone, his friendships with MJ and Ned are gone, and the arachnid side of his DNA is starting to take over. We dig into how that trauma-driven tone works, and where it doesn't.One of us walks away calling this the weakest of the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, and we're honest about why: a story that feels overcrowded with characters, some shaky CGI work on the Scorpion, and a villain problem that never quite resolves who we're actually supposed to be rooting against. We also talk through the returning cast — Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Mark Ruffalo, Florence Pugh — plus the newer additions, including Jon Bernthal's Frank Castle, Tramell Tillman's William Mesker, Naomi Watts voicing E.D.I.T.H., and a genuinely strong turn from Sadie Sink as Jean Grey that surprised us both.Along the way we get into the film's stunt work and practical martial arts sequences, the choice to make Peter's webs organic again as a nod to Tobey Maguire's era, and what it means that this film is now closing in on two billion dollars worldwide and threatening box office records held by Avengers: Endgame and Titanic. We also share (in maybe too much detail) the theater experience that colored one of our first viewings, because full transparency matters around here.Whether you loved Brand New Day or walked out with the same reservations we did, we want to hear it. And with Avengers: Doomsday looming and a fifth Spider-Man almost certainly on the way, we start speculating about where this saga goes next.If you're not already following along, you can find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere else podcasts live, and subscribing to the YouTube channel helps a lot more than you'd think.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!

We weren't planning on covering this one — but after seeing Spider-Man: Brand New Day, we had to record an emergency bonus episode. Brian and John break down why this is the most grounded, consequence-driven Spider-Man movie the MCU has made yet, the surprisingly great Punisher subplot, Florence Pugh's instantly-memeable "small potatoes" scene, and how this film borrows more from Raimi's Spider-Man 2 than any prior MCU entry. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 – Intro: why this bonus episode exists 1:58 – Taking our kids to see it (and the No Way Home nostalgia) 3:08 – Marvel's weird, endless X-Men teasing problem 4:41 – Why this movie finally takes Spider-Man seriously 6:08 – The Punisher is back, and he's incredible in this 6:29 – Florence Pugh's "small potatoes" scene (already a meme) 10:58 – What does the Hulk actually do in this movie? 12:52 – The Punisher's chili speech (light spoilers) 15:02 – The six-armed Spider-Man that almost happened 15:22 – Organic webbing and growing into the powers 19:03 – That post-credits scene & the tease 19:25 – Final scores: do we both land on 8/10? 20:24 – Wrap-up & where to find us Light spoilers past the timestamp marked above — we keep the ending under wraps.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is a 2026 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man. Produced by Columbia Pictures, Marvel Studios, and Pascal Pictures, and distributed by Sony Pictures Releasing, it is the 38th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and the fourth film in the MCU Spider-Man film series following Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021). The film was directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, and stars Tom Holland as Peter Parker / Spider-Man alongside Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Tramell Tillman, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo. In the film, Parker anonymously protects New York City as the hero Spider-Man and investigates a powerful new threat while his superpowers undergo a surprising and potentially dangerous evolution.Sony was developing a fourth MCU Spider-Man film by August 2019, and producer Amy Pascal revealed in November 2021 that it was intended to be the first in a new trilogy starring Holland. Work on the story began that December, with Holland more involved in development than he was for the previous films. McKenna and Sommers returned as writers by February 2023, Cretton was hired to direct by October 2024, and the title—derived from the 2008 comic book storyline "Brand New Day" that reset Spider-Man's status quo—was announced in March 2025. The producers wanted Holland's Parker to be a "proper Spider-Man" for the first time, on his own and fighting street-level crime in New York City. Ahead of filming, Bernthal and Ruffalo were revealed to be reprising their MCU roles of Frank Castle / Punisher and Bruce Banner / Hulk. Filming took place from August to December 2025, with location filming in Glasgow, Scotland, and throughout England. Soundstage work occurred at Pinewood Studios in England.Spider-Man: Brand New Day premiered at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, on July 27, 2026, and was released in the United States on July 31 as part of Phase Six of the MCU. The film received generally positive reviews from critics and has grossed $1.188 billion worldwide, becoming the second-highest-grossing Spider-Man film and the highest-grossing film of 2026. It had the highest opening weekend gross for the United States and Canada and the second-highest worldwide. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Peter Parker steht wieder am Anfang: Nach all den Abenteuern, sogar mit den Avengers im All, ist er plötzlich wieder ein Niemand. Selbst sein bester Freund Ned kennt ihn nicht mehr und viel schlimmer noch: MJ kann sich überhaupt nicht an Peter Parker erinnern. Wir erleben ihn wieder als sehr nahbaren Charakter, ein junger Mann, der sich vor lauter Liebeskummer kopfüber in die Superheldenarbeit wirft, bis ihn der Stress in die Knie zwingt. Da ist genau die Coming-of-Age-Melancholie zu spüren, die Spider-Man schon in den Comics zum interessantesten Superhelden gemacht hat. Mit ihm konnten wir uns als junge Leser identifizieren. Und niemand konnte das bislang so gut verkörpern wie Tom Holland.In SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY schwingt ein düsterer Ton mit – von Trauer um die Mutterfigur May, Trauer um die verlorene große Liebe, Trauer um den verlorenen besten Freund und Angst die Kontrolle zu verlieren und die eigenen Werte preiszugeben. Die Gegenspielerin erweist sich ebenfalls als verzweifelter Charakter: Sadie Sink, die mit STRANGER THINGS berühmt wurde, steigt hier in das Marvel Cinematic Universe ein und ich fresse einen Besen, wenn sie nicht in kommenden Filmen noch eine große Rolle spielen wird. Ihr Auftritt hier ist auf jeden Fall sehr beeindruckend und erinnert stark an den unterschätzten Film FALLEN (1998) mit Denzel Washington.Im Podcast direkt nach dem Kino kommen acht verschiedene Stimmen und Meinungen zu Wort – vom Wunsch in dieser Welt von Spider-Man zu bleiben und einfach im Kino gleich sein nächstes Abenteuer anzuschauen, über den Wunsch nach weniger vorhersehbaren Geschichten bis hin zur Enttäuschung über einzelne Nebendarsteller ist alles dabei. Aber die Runde ist sich einig: SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY ist visuell sehr gelungen und sehr unterhaltsam. Das Kino auf jeden Fall war an einem Werktag ausverkauft und Applaus gab es auch. Am Mikrofon direkt nach dem Kino: Anke, Johanna, Gabriele, Katharina P., Marc, Harald, Tom und Thomas.

For this week's main podcast review, Katie Johnson and Josh Parham join me to review and discuss the latest MCU Tom Holland Spider-Man film, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," starring Holland, Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Jon Bernthal, Florence Pugh, Tramell Tillman, Marisa Tomei, and Mark Ruffalo. Taking over from Jon Watts director Destin Daniel Cretton steps into the director's chair and brings the larger than life spectacle of the MCU back down to the ground a little bit as the reset button is hit following the events of 2021's "No Way Home," where those who knew Peter Parker cannot remember him any longer, thus forcing our favorite web-slinger into isolation and depression, which leads to some unexpected changes in his DNA while a new mysterious foe emerges that will have ramifications across the entire MCU. Also, Bruce Banner (aka. Hulk), Frank Castle (aka. Punisher), and Yelena Belova (aka. Black Widow) show up! What did we think of it? Please tune in either on video or audio only as we discuss the film's story, its performances, action, humor, visual effects, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

What if the weight of the world rested on the shoulders of a teenager? Join host Kevin Reid as he dives deep into the emotional and action-packed universe of Marvel's latest release, "Spider-Man: Brave New Day," on The K. B. Radio Network. This episode is a must-listen for any Marvel fan, as Reid delivers a comprehensive spoiler review that not only examines the film's thrilling plot but also unravels the intricate character arcs that make this installment stand out. From the iconic portrayal of Tom Holland as Spider-Man to the captivating performances of Zendaya and Jacob Batalon, Reid explores how each character contributes to Peter Parker's profound journey. With the haunting shadow of Aunt May's death looming over him, Reid discusses the themes of responsibility, grief, and the inevitable consequences of being a superhero. Is this the most emotionally resonant Spider-Man film ever made? Reid believes it just might be, praising the film's depth and the remarkable character development that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. One of the standout performances comes from Sadie Sink, who takes on the role of Jean Grey, bringing a fresh dynamic to the film. Reid also highlights John Bernthal's portrayal of Frank Castle, which adds layers of complexity to the story. However, he doesn't shy away from critiquing the unnecessary inclusion of Florence Pugh's character, sparking discussions on character relevance and narrative coherence. The pacing of the film and its portrayal of New York City are also key points of analysis, as Reid emphasizes how these elements enhance the viewer's experience. Unlike traditional superhero films, "Spider-Man: Brave New Day" challenges the notion of a singular villain, focusing instead on the internal struggles faced by Spider-Man. Reid's insights into this unique approach provide a fresh perspective on what it means to be a hero in a world filled with personal demons. As he wraps up the review, Reid speculates on the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, teasing the exciting possibilities that lie ahead, particularly with the upcoming "Secret Wars. "Don't miss this captivating episode of The K. B. Radio Network, where Kevin Reid delivers the ultimate spoiler-filled review of "Spider-Man: Brave New Day.

Studio Marvel je Spider-Mana po desetih letih in treh filmih končno vrnil tja, kamor spada: na ulice New Yorka. V prvi trilogiji s Tomom Hollandom kot mladim, še zelenim Spider-Manom, so superjunaka pošiljali po evropskih turističnih znamenitostih in ga množili v multivesolju – niso pa nam privoščili tistih najbolj antologijskih prizorov, povezanih s tem likom. Menda je bilo »že prevečkrat videno«, kako Spider-Man slalomira nad newyorškimi ulicami in visi s stolpnic mesta, ki nikoli ne spi. No, novi režiser Destin Daniel Cretton, ki je še od filma Shang-Chi in legenda o desetih prstanih znan po svoji ljubezni do borilnih veščin in prizemljenih akcijskih prizorov, je izkoristil priložnost za nov začetek in vpeljavo malo bolj zrelega, odraslega Spider-Mana. Zmedeni najstnik iz prve trilogije je dobil dobrodošlo nadgradnjo značaja, akcijski prizori pa so najboljši, kar smo jih v tej franšizi kdaj videli. Manj je bombastičnih in predimenzioniranih pošasti, več je preproste radosti nihanja med nebotičniki. Na trenutke se Nov dan približa celostni potopitveni izkušnji, ki pričara bobneče vzdušje vrvečega velemesta. Film se oklene iztočnice spektakla Ni poti domov iz leta 2021. Doktor Strange je takrat, da bi preprečil usodno zlivanje med vzporednimi vesolji, iz spomina vsega človeštva izbrisal podatek, da je Peter Parker Spider-Man. Drugače povedano: vse karte je zdaj treba premešati na novo. Minila so štiri leta in Peter Parker se vse bolj izgublja v svoji vlogi superjunaka. Medtem, ko sistematično izkoreninja kriminal v New Yorku, se je težko izogniti občutku, da se z vso to storilnostjo samo skriva pred lastno osamljenostjo. Teta May je mrtva, edina prijatelja, ki ju je kdaj imel, MJ in Ned, pa očitno uživata v študentskih letih, ne da bi ju pri tem obremenjevali kakršni koli spomini na Parkerja. Peter, ki svoje večere preživlja v zanikrnem podstrešnem stanovanju, ju mazohistično zalezuje na družbenih omrežjih in se niti ne poskuša zbližati s kakšnim novim človekom. Stres te brezizhodne situacije v njem sproži tudi telesne spremembe. Če je prej svoje »pajkove mreže« proizvajal in sprožal sintetično, so zdaj začele same brizgati iz njegovih zapestij. Te nenadne spremembe v DNK-ju služijo kot opomin, da je Peter vendarle drugačen, mutant, in film se v tem vidiku – seveda znotraj parametrov blockbusterja – spogleduje celo z žanrom telesne grozljivke. Bi moral Spider-Man pustiti, da ga skrivnostna mutacija nadgradi v še bolj učinkovit borilni stroj, ali pa naj se upre postopnemu razčlovečenju? Medtem, ko naš junak premleva to dilemo, se nadenj spravi skrivnostna entiteta, ki očitno lahko preskakuje med telesi nič hudega slutečih gostiteljev in se jim naseli v možgane. Ustvarjalci filma so se neznansko trudili skrivati, kateri antologijski stripovski lik, ki ga igra Sadie Sink, je osrednji antagonist zgodbe – ampak vse teorije oboževalcev so se izkazale za pravilne. Spider-Manova zgodba je naposled trčila s stripovskim svetom, v katerem se gibljejo mutantski Možje X. Med svoje zaveznike Spider-Man lahko šteje Črno vdovo – njo igra Florence Pugh. Ta s svojim štorastim slovanskim naglasom poskrbi za zabaven intermezzo. Drug zaveznik je profesor Bruce Banner, ki pa se bo seveda na neki točki napihnil v neobvladljivo zeleno pošast, Hulka. Malo manj prepričljiva je njegova bromanca s Frankom Castlom alias Kaznovalcem, žilavim vojnim veteranom in silakom, ki pretirava s svojim karikiranim mačizmom. Igra ga Jon Bernthal, kar števec igralcev iz Odiseje pripelje na tri (druga dva sta seveda Tom Holland in Zendaya). Najbolj prizemljeni in človeški prizori v filmu so tisti, v katerih se Petrova pot končno križa z MJ-jino. Zendaya zbuja vtis, da je v stripovski film vkorakala iz neke druge, veliko bolj odrasle drame. Njen lik trmasto vztraja pri človeški razsežnosti zgodbe in ji s tem daje težo. (Kljub temu nam scenarij z vpeljavo nadnaravnega omogoči za Petrovo situacijo skoraj transgresiven ljubezenski prizor, ki ga sicer ne bi dobili.) Zelo očitno je, da poskuša Nov dan Spider-Mana (in morda cel svoj panteon) potisniti v bolj odraslo, čustveno zrelo fazo. Morda je to edini način, da preživijo v zabavnem ekosistemu, ki je končno prerasel zlizano formulo superjunaških spektaklov s predimenzioniranimi, računalniško animiranimi kataklizmami in serijskimi uničenji sveta. Igralci so naposled več kot samo zamenljiva telesa, na katere se da navesiti pajkice in posebne učinke. Ideja je prava, čeprav je film v tretjem dejanju še vedno prenatrpan s peripetijo in bi mu koristil veliko hitrejši razplet. Vseeno pa nam pusti kanec upanja, da decembrski Vzpon doktorja Dooma, naslednje veliko poglavje Maščevalcev, ne bo popolnoma brezdušen behemot. Recenzijo je napisala Ana Jurc, bere Lidija Hartman.

The cult Aussie rom-com everyone's been quietly obsessed with is back for its third and final season, and if you've somehow missed it, now's the time to catch up. Its real-life married co-creators have the kind of chemistry you can't fake, backed by a scene-stealing cast of chaotic families and coworkers. Plus, The Spill team hit the premiere of the biggest superhero movie of the year — don't worry, we're keeping things spoiler-free, but we're unpacking why even the Marvel-fatigued are walking out obsessed, one surprise appearance we're still not over, and the very human story underneath it all. And if you're after something completely different, we've also got a recommendation for a tense new shark thriller set inside an underwater cave system. Think claustrophobia, friendship drama and one very angry bull shark.

Meghan Markle's MasterChef Australia episode drops this weekend, and the internet has already decided she's at war with the show's most beloved judge. But dig into who's actually behind these headlines and the whole thing starts to smell like a very familiar beat-up.Then we're giving Marvel some tough love. The first Avengers Doomsday trailer is finally here, it's stacked with more cameos than we can count, and yet we walked away worried. We're getting into the return no one asked for, the "lazy" storytelling loophole, and whether this can possibly live up to Endgame.Plus the horror trailer that made our whole team scream — a contortionist ghost, a Jessica Chastain double, and a jump scare so inventive we've been forcing it on everyone we know.

Zach Braff (Scrubs, Garden State, Shrinking) joins me again this week for a conversation that swings from gut busting funny to genuinely tender. Zach opens up about living with depression, the highs and lows of a creative life, and the shingles nightmare he survived while directing Florence Pugh in A Good Person. We get into the real story behind bringing Scrubs back, rebuilding Sacred Heart from nothing, and what it takes to earn the trust of legends like Harrison Ford and Morgan Freeman. He also gets honest about being hard on himself, losing his dog Roscoe after 17 years, and the rescue that became his best antidepressant. Thank you to our sponsors:

DEFENDANT: Midsomar EVIDENCE: Sun Goddess Pinot Grigio SCENE OF THE CRIME: A Maypole Near You... -- Hey friend — welcome to our bonus midsummer episode! We kick things off with playful banter about time, podcast firsts, and then dive into the lushly sunlit weirdness of Ari Aster's Midsommar while sipping Mary J. Blige's Sun Goddess Pinot Grigio. Expect gossip, gross food talk, and the kind of movie chat that makes you want to rewatch with a notebook. We nerd out on the Friuli region (hello rose-gold Pinot Grigio color!), savor juicy melon-and-nectarine tasting notes, and praise the wine for being both approachable and surprisingly complex. Then we pivot into the film: Florence Pugh's Dani, toxic boyfriend Christian, and that creeping daylight dread that makes Midsommar feel like artful folk horror instead of just jump scares. There's also a playful Midsommar traditions true/false quiz, heated opinions about who deserves what, and a long, affectionate breakdown of costumes, rituals, and the film's ambiguous place between indigenous practice and cult. We wrap with whether we'd join a cozy wine-loving cult (spoiler: yes — but only the Nancy Meyers version) and all the micro-joys that make this episode feel like a friend sitting on your patio, passing the bottle and whispering theories.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.During Disney's annual upfront presentation on Tuesday, Marvel Television revealed that the long awaited VisionQuest series will hit Disney Plus later this fall, with the debut streaming October 14. A trailer for the Paul Bettany led spinoff was also shown to media buyers and advertisers and reportedly featured a look at James Spader's return as Ultron. This exciting update comes on the heels of Daredevil: Born Again's Season 2 finale and the release of the Punisher special presentation; with all eyes on the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day and, of course, Avengers: Doomsday,Disney's Tuesday presentation also shed some light on Lucasfilm's streaming future with Ahsoka Season 2 promised for an early 2027 release window on Disney Plus, more than 3 years after Season 1 streamed in 2023. Rosario Dawson took the stage where she teased, “This season, the battles are bigger and the stakes are higher.” Ahsoka creator and Lucasfilm co-head Dave Filoni backed Dawson's comments while featured in a sneak peek of the upcoming season.It's been a while since we discussed DC's Deathstroke & Bane team up feature with details remaining sparse since it was first announced in September; now Deadline is reporting that according to its sources not only is the film still in development, but multiple directors including Greg Mottola as a frontrunner are in talks to helm it. Mottola is no stranger to the DCU or James Gunn, having directed episodes of Peacemaker. While DC has yet to comment, Moon Knight writer Matthew Orton reportedly wrote the initial screenplay for the villain duo team-up and is set to do a rewrite if Mottola does end up being the choice. In other DCU news, Friday Night Lights actor Sinqua Walls has joined the cast of Man of Tomorrow in an undisclosed role. Deadpool and Wolverine director Shawn Levy is now attached to direct an original sci fi film written by Max Taxe titled Somewhere Out There for Netflix.

Mortal Kombat 2 earned a worldwide box office total of $63 million dollars with only $23 million of that total made overseas. NBCUniversal has confirmed that a live-action Fast and the Furious series is in development. Vin Diesel, who will serve as a producer, announced the project, which is set up at Peacock, on stage at the NBCUniversal upfront presentation Monday morning.

After bringing Michael Crichton‘s theme park vision to the screen scripting 1993's Jurassic Park and two sequels, screenwriter David Koepp is looking to tackle another one. Deadline hears Koepp will revisit Westworld, the 1973 film written and directed by Crichton. A major unnamed director is also circling the project for Warner Brothers.

This week's Empire Podcast sees Chris Hewitt sit down in a London hotel room with Amanda Seyfried and Mona Fastvold, star and director respectively of the audacious new musical biopic, The Testament Of Ann Lee. It's a conversation that takes in everything from wearing T-shirts with your face on it to the trick of choreographing incredibly complex dance numbers, and is a ton of fun. That starts around 42:18 and finishes around 1:02:50. Elsewhere, Chris is joined in the podbooth by Helen O'Hara, James Dyer and, for the first time on the regular pod, Evolution Of Horror host Mike Muncer, as they discuss movie news including the BAFTAs and the latest Toy Story 5 trailer, answer questions on what movie-related thing they'd give up for Lent, the movie juries they'd like to be on (or not), and run their critical eye over Scream 7, The Testament Of Ann Lee, Sirat, and The Bluff. Oh, and Chris finally gets round to explaining how, and why, he nearly stepped on Florence Pugh's dress. Enjoy.
Want to know the story of how Chris Hewitt almost stepped on Florence Pugh's dress? Well, this isn't the podcast for you, as it features Chris and Helen O'Hara trying to tell that tale, from the press night of Cynthia Erivo's Dracula (sorry, Draclier), only to get sidetracked by a dozen different things and forget to finish it. But if you want to hear Chris, Helen, James Dyer, and John Nugent talk about movie characters falling from great heights, pay tribute to the great Robert Duvall, discuss the latest The Mandalorian And Grogu trailer, and review The Secret Agent, Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die, Wasteman and If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, this is the podcast for you. Oh, and Chris and Helen launch new careers as theatre reviewers too. Guest-wise, Harry Stainer talks to the Oscar-nominated star of the Brazilian thriller, The Secret Agent, one Wagner Moura, and his director, Kleber Mendonça Filho. It's a cracking episode, even if we're still nowhere nearer to finding a nickname for Tin Jim. Enjoy.
This emotional interview with the actor Andrew Garfield is a listener favorite. In it, Garfield talks about his 2024 film “We Live in Time,” in which he plays a newly divorced man named Tobias who falls in love with a chef named Almut, played by Florence Pugh. Their story feels epic and expansive, but still intimate. It focuses on the small, everyday moments that make up a love story: washing dishes together after a dinner party, sharing biscuits, smelling fruit at a farmers' market. These are the moments that sustain the couple through Almut's excruciatingly difficult medical crisis.Garfield tells Anna Martin, host of “Modern Love,” why this film about the intertwined nature of joy and grief came into his life at just the right moment, and gives an unexpectedly raw reading of Chris Huntington's essay “Learning to Measure Time in Love and Loss.”"Modern Love" will return on Jan. 7 with all new episodes.
