Want Derby/Oaks Prep analysis this weekend? Here is a compilation of The Gallop Out's look at The Fountain of Youth, Rebel Stakes, Gotham and Honeybee Stakes set for this weekend 2/28-3/1. Hosts Ryan Anderson and Jackson Muniz provide a break down for all your 3 year olds prepping for the first weekend in May right here on the In the Money Media Network.
Could Antoine Griezmann really be headed to Orlando City SC — and if so, would he be the one player capable of challenging Lionel Messi for MLS supremacy? We kick things off by diving into the rumor, the fit, and what Griezmann's personality and playing style would mean for the league. Is this realistic, or just classic MLS chaos? Then NJ/NY Gotham FC defender Mandy Freeman joins the show. She reflects on Gotham's improbable championship run, the weight of expectations heading into the new season, and what it's like being a 10-year NWSL veteran who's seen the league evolve from host families and modest crowds to sold-out stadiums. Mandy also opens up about her love of fashion and gives a thoughtful critique of the NWSL's new High Impact Player rule — explaining why raising the ceiling doesn't necessarily raise the floor for players across the league. We wrap with Champions League drama: Weston McKennie continues to shine, but did Juventus FC let him down again? Is it time for him to seek a bigger move? Vinícius Júnior delivers another electric performance against SL Benfica, while FK Bodø/Glimt stun Inter Milan — raising serious questions about what's happening with Italian teams in Europe this season. Timestamps: (7:30) – Griezmann to Orlando!? Can he dethrone Messi in MLS? (18:00) - Gotham FC defender Mandy Freeman joins The Cooligans (42:00) – Weston Mckennie continues to shine but Juve is failing him (53:30) – Vini Jr. Shuts up Benfica with another amazing performance (59:00) - Bodø/Glimt stun Inter Milan Subscribe to The Cooligans on your favorite podcast app:
Our hosts return to the podcave to review “Animal Act," a very average episode of TNBA.Alex and Will dig into why this marks the final DCAU appearance of the Mad Hatter, and celebrate just how perfect Roddy McDowell was in the role. They discuss Hatter's ever-evolving mind-control tech and his simple desire to just watch the people of Gotham smash. Meanwhile, Dick Grayson revisits his circus roots, reflects on his old life, and endures the ultimate insult—being called fat by the Fat Lady. Our hosts also touch on Batman's absolute refusal to admit when someone sneaks up on him, Dick's inexplicable love for Japan (despite never having been), and the crucial revelation that Mad Hatter and Ra's al Ghul are now locked in a fierce rivalry on the amateur rap battle circuit.Tip Jar: https://buymeacoffee.com/batmantaspod ThreadHeads 20% Off: https://www.threadheads.com/BATMANTASPOD87466Buy Our Merch: https://www.bleakworld.store/category/btas-podcast-collaborationOutbreaks Issue 4 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/outbreaks-1-4-an-ongoing-zombie-anthology-seriesMobster Mash 1-2 Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/speechcomics/mobster-mash-1-2-classic-movie-monsters-as-mobsters Join Our Discord - https://discord.com/invite/bQF76V3nUs TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@batmantaspod?_t=8zn1yhsgnfz&_r=1 Follow us on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@batmantaspod Follow the Pod on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/batmantaspod/ Follow the Pod on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BatmanTASPod Follow the Pod on Twitter - https://twitter.com/batmantaspod1 Subscribe to Will's Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/willrobson Speech Comics Website - https://www.speechcomics.com/ Will's WhatNot Page - https://www.whatnot.com/user/speechcomics
In this episode of Bro's, Foes and Heroes, we dive into the history of one of DC's most iconic and beloved characters: Harley Quinn. While many fans know her from the movies and modern comics, her origin is unique in the world of superheroes. Born not in the pages of a comic book, but on a television screen, Harley's journey started with a chance friendship and a surprising inspiration from a daytime soap opera. Zach and Mike break down the legacy of Batman: The Animated Series, the "Dark Deco" animation style that set the tone for Gotham, and the creative genius of Paul Dini and Bruce Timm. We also explore the definitive origin story, Mad Love, and how Arleen Sorkin's performance forever defined the voice and soul of Harleen Quinzel. #harleyquinn #batmantheanimatedseries #dccomics #batman #joker #pauldini #brucetimm #comicbookhistory #podcast #brosfoesandheroes #roguemedianetwork #markhamill #kevinconroy Thank you to our sponsors!

Mysteries. Thrillers. Rare Finds. I've renewed, refreshed, and rebranded my fiction podcast, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to the new Mark McNease's Fearsome Fiction Podcast. Each week I'll be sharing several chapters of my own harrowing fiction, the kind of stories that creep under your skin and refuse to leave, along with rare and forgotten gems, and select works from other authors whose voices deserve to be heard in the dark. This week: Night Flight to Murder Town: A Marshall James Thriller (Chapters 1 - 3) Marshall James returns in Night Flight to Murder Town, Book 4 in the series. He's thinking about leaving New York City with his husband for a quieter life, away from the relentless pace of the nation's largest city. But how did he get here in the first place? After three stories detailing his harrowing Hollywood past — where lovers, losers, and more than one serial killer nearly ended his life before he could make something of it — Marshall finally tells us how and why he left LaLa Land for Gotham. This is the origin story beneath the scars. The turning point. The night everything changed.

Go to the patreon for AD-Free podcasts and exclusives including the Sunna Wr'alda Solar University about to launch that is a deprogramming and restorative initiative. There I will go over the true history of mankind and civilization dating back over 5,000 years ago, and how the nefarious mythmongers and deceptive moon cult had poisoned our heritage and history whe compiling their inverse biblical writings. We are restoring our true religion under the Sun. AND I am your pastor. AI Data Centers may not have anything at all to do with AI. I'm familiar with the fake consumer grade AI LLMs and their complete difference with the assumed military weapon grade AI they are said to possess to bring mankid to its knees. But what if that was all or half BULLSHT? These data centers require the consumption of countless GPUs, and that is where th clues may lie. What if these data centers are being constructed to create an artificial REALITY impossible to distinguish from the "real" world and possibly even favorable for some to that of the natural? Is this really a race to create a system of such high-level illusion, magick trickery, that it ensnares us all? Lots of GPUs working together. Lots of graphics power the likes of which we can't imagine. Is this really about Artificial Intelligence, or is it about Artificial Reality and holographic imprisonment? Consider a vast computer system generating a plausible, artificial reality that captures all of mankind within its illusion.

It's New York's hellacious summer of '77. Rampant crime, a city-wide blackout and the Son of Sam murders have knocked Gotham on its ass. When Lucien Lowe, a young poet on the downtown scene, is found dead in his East Village tenement with a heroin needle in his arm, overworked cops rule it an accidental overdose. But Ike's wealthy girlfriend Julie Baroda suspects murder and urges Ike's best friend, the artist and punk rock fashion designer Finn Burdon, to investigate.Despite Finn's own issues with heroin, he shows an uncanny talent for detective work. As Julie, Finn and police detective Benny Cherin dig deeper, their investigation ultimately encompasses some of the most famous names of 1970s New York, including William S. Burroughs, Jean-Michel Basquiat, CBGB owner Hilly Kristal, Allen Ginsberg, Lou Reed, Truman Capote, Roy Cohn, Fat Tony Salerno, Holly Woodlawn, Steve Rubell, Andrew Crispo, Bella Abzug, Leonard Cohen and many others. In the process, they begin to glimpse the outlines of a violent plot to sabotage the opening night of Hilly Kristal's highly anticipated new venue, The CBGB 2nd Avenue Theater, when Patti Smith is playing and it's packed with thousands.Set during the glory days of New York's downtown music, art, literary and fashion scenes, The CBGB Conspiracy mixes fiction with a host of real events and historical figures. Behind them all looms a character just as visceral and ultimately doomed: the crumbling New York of 1977.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio. Hosted on Acast.

The latest DC Spotlight episode for the week of February 4, 2026 features Jace and Rocky breaking down a strong slate of eleven new DC releases while reflecting on a rare week free of industry-wide bad news. The discussion is led by the return of The Nice House by the Sea #7, with James Tynion IV and Álvaro Martínez Bueno resuming the series after a long hiatus and using character guides and carefully integrated recap to maintain narrative momentum, followed by Batman: Static Beyond #3, which gains traction as Miguel Mendonça's art and a more action-driven focus push the Elseworlds concept forward. Batgirl #16 marks a turning point in Cassandra Cain's arc, delivering resolution to the Unburied storyline, expanding the Lazarus mythology, and setting up a return to Gotham, while DC KO: Night Fight #4 closes its mini-series by exploring Batman's exile from the tournament, alternate futures, and the consequences of loss before re-inserting him into the larger DC KO event. The episode also covers Batman #6, emphasizing character fallout and the status shift for Tim Drake, Poison Ivy #41, which advances Pamela Isley's path toward running for mayor through a jail-cell-centered narrative that keeps her agency intact, and DC KO: Boss Battle #1, a crossover-heavy one-shot pairing DC characters with external properties in a high-concept escalation of the tournament. Additional discussion includes JSA #16 continuing its Year One focus on early team dynamics, Absolute Green Lantern #11 deepening Al Ewing's dense mythology with escalating threats and spectrum lore, Absolute Superman #16 introducing an Absolute Hawkman origin while advancing Lex Luthor and Brainiac plot threads, and Superman: Chains of Love Special #1, a Creeper- and Livewire-focused story that rounds out the week, before the hosts rank their favorites and preview the looming impact of DC KO #4.
Superheroes were an American invention, at least the modern conception of them. But they have spread across the globe and taken on many forms. We've done an episode about Batman stories across the world before, but this weeks we're focusing specifically on Batman stories from Japan. We're reading the first collection of stories that spun out of the 60s Batman TV craze, a more serious tale of a killer stalking Gotham with connections to Bruce Wayne's study's in Japan and the final volume of the series where Joker raises a de-aged baby Batman.

In today's episode, Liam revives a prior series from the beginning of the podcast, Woso Weekly, covering the latest news in women's soccer with insightful analysis.He covers the USWNT's dominant January camp, as the side rolled to back-to-back shutout wins, while showcasing the next wave of talent in Emma Hayes' evolving player pool. He talks about how even with a heavily rotated and relatively inexperienced squad, the U.S. still delivered, as first-time goal scorers and USWNT senior debuts highlighted the team's growing depth. LDG named players who stood out, like Trinity Rodman, who stood out as both a consistent goal scorer and emerging leader, while performances from players like Ally Sentnor, Reilyn Turner, Emma Sears, and Croix Bethune underlined how competitive the forward and attacking midfield picture is becoming ahead of the SheBelieves Cup and World Cup qualifying later this year.The episode also talks about the broader landscape of the women's game, including the inaugural FIFA Women's Champions Cup, and what the competition reveals about commercial progress and lingering challenges. While FIFA's record-setting prize money signals real financial investment, which poses long-term benefits for the stability of the sport, as the prize money will be reinvested into the sport, there were some disappointments, as LDG highlights, that raised questions about sustainability and execution. He chats about Gotham's loss to Corinthians and Arsenal's dominance, adding context to a tournament that reflects both how far the women's club game has come and how much work remains for the future.Lastly, he talks about Crystal Dunn's retirement and Trinity Rodman's record-breaking contract with the Washington Spirit. As mentioned in the episode, to hear more about Trinity Rodman's move, we did a deep-dive on the Trinity Rodman contract negotiations with the Washington Spirit.Thank you for listening!

Plus, a little insight into our exclusive in the Sun about a letter that Families Minister Nahanni Fontaine sent to the General Child and Family Services Authority that resulted in the top two GA directors tabling their resignations.18.08 Part 2- With over 500 incidents requiring city Fire and Paramedic crews to attend to homeless encampments and almost 800 derelict buildings boarded up, Winnipeg is in a serious decline. An open letter from the Executive Director of the Sargent Business Community explained the effect on small businesses like his. "Crime is running rampant in our city," wrote Michael Paille. "We should not have to put our staff through self-defense courses just to work in retail. ""Dealing with shoplifting, vandalism, and violence is not something a business should have to handle alone," Paille stated, but when he evaluated police staffing numbers, he realized that despite a population increase of 200,000 in the last 15 years, there are almost 50 fewer cops."Seniors are being attacked in parking lots, stabbings occur in Walmarts, and drug deals are now as common as a hot dogvendor on a street corner. Where is it safe? You can't even go shopping without fearing for your life. The city feels more like Gotham every day."Listen to the challenges facing businesses like Paille's, and his argument that "We do not need safe injection sites or vans giving out needles."Instead, he believes, "We need to help these people with addiction through community programs and support units that focus on helping them leave drugs and gangs behind to be part of this great city."Coming up in the Sunday Sun - city councillors are scrambling after hard questions were asked about their responsibilities for the proposed drug user facility at 366 Henry Avenue.*******- The Winnipeg Sun has an online subscription offer that's too good to pass up - $9.99 a month - get the details here - Subscribe | winnipegsun.com- PLAN AHEAD FOR VALENTINE'S DAY: Marty will be hosting the 17th Anniversary event as Canadian Wrestling's Elite kicks off the celebration tour across Western Canada on February 14th at the beautiful Ukrainian Labour Temple hall.

With no limitless resources, no billions to fund him, no mansion, and no butler to care for him, Bruce has shaped himself into an entirely different breed of Batman, one that is equal parts brain and brawn, who exists exclusively in the grittiest and most underserved parts of Gotham with no high society mask to fall back on.

As part of the Comic Boom! and Comic Source collaboration, this DC Spotlight for the week of January 28, 2026 finds Jace and Rocky breaking down a packed slate of fourteen DC releases, with discussion opening on the passing and legacy of Sal Buscema before turning to the week's books. DC KO: The Kids Are All Fight Special #1 is examined for its focus on younger heroes and its place as a largely skippable but well-drawn tie-in, while Detective Comics #1105 continues Tom Taylor's "The Courage That Kills" arc with deeper insight into the Lion's origin and Gotham's escalating crisis. Harley Quinn #58 is discussed as the start of a new arc that feels tonally familiar, followed by the Supergirl Next Door Valentine's anthology, which offers mixed results across stories spotlighting Supergirl, Jay Garrick, Poison Ivy, Guy Gardner, Wonder Woman, Swamp Thing, Martian Manhunter, and Green Arrow. Green Lantern #31 features a nostalgic Hal Jordan and Barry Allen team-up that advances Jeremy Adams' larger arc in subtle ways, while Superman #34 pushes Superboy Prime further into moral conflict against the Dark Legion. Absolute Martian Manhunter #8 stands out for its conceptual storytelling and increased narrative momentum, The Flash #29 introduces Dream Girl as a potential crack in Darkseid's Legion, and Harley and Ivy: Love and Crimes #3 explores the early dynamics between Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy with a more grounded emotional approach. Justice League Unlimited #15 and Justice League Red #6 wrap major threads involving Neuron, time-displaced heroes, and Red Tornado's reckoning, while Absolute Batman #16 delivers a character-driven underworld journey with Wonder Woman that highlights Bruce Wayne's loyalty and sacrifice. Absolute Flash #11 provides major revelations about the Still Point and the source of Wally West's power, and Absolute Wonder Woman #16 launches the "Season of the Witch" arc with Absolute Zatanna and a reimagined Suicide Squad, setting the stage for one of the week's most consequential confrontations.
From the USWNT's January test to Alex Freeman's European bet and Jordynn Dudley's rise from Georgia to Gotham, today's Morning Espresso traces how the next core of American soccer is being built for 2026 and beyond.

Jace and Rocky break down another Comic Boom! / Comic Source DC Spotlight for the week of January 21, 2026, with only seven single issues on the slate but a massive week for reprints and collected editions—including major Absolute line reprints like Absolute Batman #1 10th printing and Absolute Batman Annual #1 2nd printing, plus facsimiles such as Batman #676 and Superman #75, and a packed shelf of collected editions ranging from Batman: Gotham by Gaslight Compact Comics to DC's Finest: Doom Patrol, Green Lantern by Robert Venditti Omnibus Vol. 2, The Invisibles Compendium, New History of the DCU, Absolute Promethea Vol. 2, Resurrection Man: Quantum Karma, and Young Justice Omnibus Vol. 2. On the single-issue side, Batman/Superman: World's Finest #47 wraps up the Absorbicon chaos with the Joker/Luthor fusion, the world briefly losing knowledge, and a lingering "Fusion" mystery locked away in the Fortress of Solitude; DC KO: Green Lantern – Galactic Slam #1 becomes the week's standout as Jeremy Adams brings Kyle Rayner into WAM's multiversal wrestling spectacle, delivers Omega Bam Man's origin, and ties the concept directly into Darkseid and the DC KO stakes; Titans #31 splits focus between Donna Troy and Arsenal battling Grail on Earth and Nightwing/Raven's Gemworld complications as Terra turns opportunistic; Superman Unlimited #9 launches "Die Laughing" with a new, more hands-on Prankster targeting Perry White and Superman leveraging Clark Kent's reporting to bait the killer into exposing himself, while also planting Mxyzptlk-related seeds; Catwoman #83 continues Selina's Europe-set intrigue with Falcone connections and Court of Owls pressure as the run edges toward a more familiar Gotham-facing direction; Nightwing #134 keeps Dick in the Fifth Dimension facing the Zanni while real-world consequences escalate, including damage that reverberates back to Blüdhaven; and Wonder Woman #29 begins a two-part "The Village" detour to Themyscira with striking Jeff Spokes visuals and Strife's arrival setting the hook for what comes next, before both hosts give their rankings with Galactic Slam taking the top spot.
Show notes provided by Joe PelusoA standing tradition in the comic book industry is the retelling ofthe origins of its iconic heroes.Superman got a new origin, and a newstart, by John Byrne in 1986's "Man of Steel".The amazing Spider-Manhad his origin retold numerous times whenever an anniversary issue hitthe stands, and The Batman's origin had been expanded upon from itsinitial two page intro in the Golden Age to full length issues, andeventually to a three part mini-series written by Len Wein at the endof the Bronze Age. But it wasn't until the end of 1986, with issue#404-407 (cover dated Feb.1987-May 1987) that all the desperate piecesof the Dark Knight's mysterious origins came into four-color realityin "Batman: Year One" by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli. Join hosts James, Chris, and Joe as they plumb the secrets of TheBatcave to uncover the elements of creation that gave birth to thisnew "post Crisis " origin of the Dark Knight Detective. How much control did editor Denny O'Neil (a legendary Batmanscribe) have over the production of these issues? What was it like forJames, Chris, and grizzled old comic book vet Joe, reading thisseminal, game changing work for the first time? Who is this upstarthonest cop Jim Gordon just recently transferred from the Chicago PD?And how important was this story to the inception of the Modern Age ofcomics? If you're walking down the streets of Gotham and the sky blackenssuddenly, take cover! The Batman's calling-card may be coming for you!

This week, we review Batman & Robin (1997), Joel Schumacher's neon-drenched, camp-infused take on the superhero genre. George Clooney dons the cowl as Batman, with Chris O'Donnell returning as Robin, joined by Alicia Silverstone's Batgirl. Together, they face off against a pun-happy Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and the seductive Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) in a Gotham that looks more like a laser tag arena than a city in peril. With its over-the-top costumes, toyetic set pieces, and infamous one-liners, this film raises intriguing questions about how far a franchise can stray before it freezes over.Is it a cold-hearted flop or a misunderstood cult classic?

Spencer Parsons and Chris Stachiw join Mike to dig into the ideological undercurrents of The Dark Knight Rises, Christopher Nolan's contentious capstone to his Batman trilogy. Released in 2012, the film finds a broken Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) pulled back into action as Gotham—now pointedly resembling New York—falls under siege by Bane (Tom Hardy) and the League of Shadows.The conversation moves past spectacle to examine the film's deeply anxious view of revolution, class conflict, and populist politics. Drawing connections to Occupy Wall Street–era fears, Mike, Spencer, and Chris unpack how Bane's rhetoric of liberation masks authoritarian control, how mass movements are portrayed as dangerous and irrational, and how order is ultimately restored through elite sacrifice rather than systemic change.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

Batman needed a new beginning — and in 2005, he got one.On this episode of Moving Panels, Laramy is joined by Tim Williams and Blake Fowler to break down Batman Begins, the film that redefined what a Batman movie — and a superhero origin — could be.We talk about the deliberate decision to delay Bruce Wayne becoming Batman, the influence of Year One and The Man Who Falls, and why fear is the central theme holding the entire movie together. From the League of Shadows and the Ra's al Ghul misdirection, to Scarecrow as a psychological weapon rather than a final boss, to the importance of characters like Carmine Falcone and Lucius Fox, this episode explores how Batman Begins earns its mythology instead of rushing it.We also discuss Thomas Wayne, Rachel Dawes' view of Bruce's true identity, the destruction of Wayne Manor, and why Gotham itself feels like a system that needs confronting — not just a city that needs saving.Is Batman Begins still the gold standard for superhero origin stories?There's only one way to find out.

On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down a massive new wave of Marvel and DC rumors that could seriously reshape the future of some of the biggest franchises in Hollywood. From shocking reports about Marvel Studios canceling the long-troubled Blade solo movie to claims that Mahershala Ali's Daywalker may instead debut as part of a Midnight Sons team-up, there is a lot to unpack for MCU fans. We also dive into a surprising new direction for The Batman – Part II, where new rumors suggest the sequel could shift focus away from Harvey Dent and instead introduce Gilda Dent as a potential female Two-Face. What would that mean for Matt Reeves' Gotham and the tone of the sequel? On the Marvel side, the Spider-Man: Brand New Day rumor mill is heating up again, with Sadie Sink's name being strongly linked to Jean Grey in the MCU. Could Marvel be setting the stage for the X-Men through Peter Parker's next chapter? Plus, we discuss new Man of Tomorrow rumors, including a mysterious spoiler reference and the possibility of Wonder Woman appearing in the DCU's Superman film. How much of this is setup for the wider DC Universe, and what does it tell us about James Gunn's long-term plan? Kristian Harloff and the crew break down what's real, what's rumor, and what it all means for Marvel and DC fans moving forward.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesAs has become par for the course these last few weeks, Marvel Studios released the third Avengers: Doomsday trailer, which focuses on the X-Men, Tuesday morning after an exclusive week run attached to theatrical showings of Avatar Fire and Ash. Sebastian Stan is in talks to join The Batman Part II opposite Robert Pattinson and Scarlett Johansson, making him the second Marvel Cinematic Universe alum to jump to Matt Reeves' Gotham. The Oscar-nominated Apprentice star, best known for playing Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier in multiple Marvel films, would join returning cast members Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis ahead of spring production for an October 2027 release.Avatar: Fire and Ash crossed the 1 billion dollar mark at the global box office after 18 days in theaters, led by 40 million dollars domestically in its third weekend for a total of 306 million dollars and 777.1 million dollars internationally, making it Disney's third billion-dollar release of 2025. Meanwhile, Netflix's Stranger Things series finale generated between 25 to 28 million dollars from a limited two-day theatrical run across 600 theaters on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, with exhibitors selling concession vouchers rather than traditional tickets and keeping all revenue themselves as an olive branch between the streamer and theaters. Simu Liu has publicly endorsed his Copenhagen Test co-star Melissa Barrera to play Wonder Woman in James Gunn's DC Universe, praising her stunt training as Wonder Woman-esque and calling her a total badass who puts in the work. DC Studios boss James Gunn confirmed in July that Wonder Woman has not been cast yet and won't be discussed until the script is finished, with Supergirl screenwriter Ana Nogueira tapped to write the new Wonder Woman film.Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another dominated the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday night, winning Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay, while Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor for Marty Supreme and Jessie Buckley took Best Actress for Hamnet. Ryan Coogler's Sinners and Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein tied for the most wins with four awards each, with Jacob Elordi scoring a surprise Best Supporting Actor victory for his performance as the Creature in Frankenstein. On the television side, The Pitt won Best Drama while The Studio took Best Comedy, with Adolescence earning four awards including Best Limited Series.Horror director James Wan has expressed interest in directing Avatar 4 if James Cameron decides to step back from the franchise, telling Screen Rant he would love to take a crack at the billion-dollar series. Cameron has indicated he may scale back his hands-on involvement with future Avatar films to pursue other projects, potentially delegating more directorial duties to second unit directors or another filmmaker while remaining as producer.Paramount+ has renewed Mayor of Kingstown for a fifth and final season consisting of eight episodes, down from the usual ten episodes per season. The Taylor Sheridan crime drama starring Jeremy Renner and Edie Falco will conclude after its upcoming season, which follows the bloody Season 4 finale that aired in December 2025.Amazon Prime Video has announced the cast for its Tomb Raider series starring Sophie Turner as Lara Croft, with Sigourney Weaver joining as Evelyn Wallis, a mysterious woman seeking to exploit Lara's talents, and Jason Isaacs as Atlas DeMornay, Lara's uncle. The series, created and co-showrun by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, will also feature several characters from the video game franchise including Bill Paterson as butler Winston and Martin Bobb-Semple as tech support Zip.
A jaw-dropping Star Wars rumor is making waves across the fandom. Reports claim that Star Wars: Starfighter will feature a lightsaber duel partially shot and directed by Tom Cruise, and on today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down how this could actually happen, why Cruise may be involved behind the camera, and whether this bold creative choice makes sense for Lucasfilm's future. We also cover a packed slate of movie and streaming news. Disney has officially found the two leads for its live-action Tangled, sparking debate over casting choices and remake fatigue. DC fans get a major update as rumors swirl around Sebastian Stan's potential role in The Batman – Part II, and what it could mean for Matt Reeves' expanding Gotham universe. On the streaming side, Disney+ is reportedly rolling out a vertical video feed, raising questions about how platforms are adapting to short-form viewing habits. Meanwhile, Netflix users experienced minor outages that may be connected to the ongoing "Conformity Gate" situation. We also react to the explosive new trailer for The Wrecking Crew starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista. Topics Discussed: Star Wars: Starfighter lightsaber duel reportedly shot by Tom Cruise Live-action Tangled officially casts its two leads Sebastian Stan rumored for a role in The Batman – Part II Disney+ experimenting with vertical video feeds Netflix outages possibly linked to Conformity Gate The Wrecking Crew trailer with Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista Join Kristian Harloff and the crew for reactions, analysis, and unfiltered discussion on the biggest stories in movies, TV, and pop culture. #KristianHarloffShow #StarWars #StarWarsStarfighter #TomCruise #LightsaberDuel #Lucasfilm #Disney #Tangled #BatmanPartII #SebastianStan #DC #DisneyPlus #Netflix #TheWreckingCrew #JasonMomoa #DaveBautista #MovieNews #TVNews #PopCulture SPONSORS: RAYCON: Go to https://www.buyraycon.com/kristian to get 20% off sitewide.
