Edy guides the audience through her life as an angry poor kid, a sexually deviant teen, all the way to where she is now: a poor yet a slightly famous, sexually deviant adult, with a passion for Human Connection.

"Born and raised a New Yorker from Nyack to Bay Ridge to Ridgewood, Edy Modica is best known for her role in the Emmy Nominated comedy, Jury Duty in a performance that earned her a place in the The Hollywood Reporter's list of 20 Supporting Actors Who Stole The Scene.

This week, the 2 Guys 5 Movies podcast continues the journey through the horror of the 2010s. Frank's 2017 list includes the the folk horror The Ritual, the comedy-horror The Babysitter starring Samara Weaving, Justin Benson and Aaron Moorehead's The Endless, Jordan Peele's insta-classic Get Out, and the Spanish language horror Terrified.

A banned Looney Tunes movie turns out to be the best thing in the cinema this week, a Jason Statham action machine does exactly what it says on the tin, and Ricky Gervais surprises everyone with an animated cat show that actually lands. If you want to know where your money is best spent this week, this episode makes the case fast.Shaun, Tosin, Holly Nessling, and Sharon Bollen compare the week's cinema and streaming picks, but the real story is the range: from the long-delayed, tax-write-off-dodging delight of Coyote vs Acme to the enclosed-home paranoia of The Last House, the ridiculous-but-entertaining mayhem of Mutiny, the darkly comic relationship carnage of Over Your Dead Body, and the oddball romance premise of One Night Only.You'll discover:why Coyote vs Acme feels like the best animation-live action hybrid since Who Framed Roger Rabbithow Mutiny doubles down on every Jason Statham trope and still workswhy The Last House turns a family home into a survival bunkerwhat makes Over Your Dead Body spiral from a killer premise into glorious chaoshow One Night Only turns a wildly absurd alternate America into a rom-com with consequenceswhy Alley Cats may be Ricky Gervais' most watchable project yetShaun and Sharon bring the cinema perspective, Holly brings the streaming chaos and an increasingly legendary shark-movie obsession, and Tosin keeps trying to balance the whole thing while making the weekly “money well spent” verdict. Along the way there are proper laughs, a few disagreements, and at least one pitch for an entire podcast devoted to terrible shark films.This is the episode for anyone deciding what to watch next, anyone who misses big-screen fun, and anyone who enjoys a film chat that can go from serious to utterly unhinged in seconds. If you've got one cinema trip or one streaming slot to spend this week, start here.Timestamps00:00 - Countdown chaos and name-spelling complaints02:03 - What everyone saw in cinemas this week06:29 - Home viewing roundup and the “bag” for unfinished series08:11 - Why Coyote vs. Acme was almost hidden away12:40 - Wiley Coyote sues Acme for decades of injuries15:37 - The voice casting and Looney Tunes callbacks18:10 - The Last House: trapped indoors by the rain21:27 - Comparing The Last House to The End of Oak Street23:41 - Survival mode, family dynamics, and rating The Last House25:29 - Mutiny: Jason Statham does what Jason Statham does29:20 - Why the Statham formula still works31:38 - Over Your Dead Body begins with murder plans34:50 - The film keeps escalating into total chaos37:49 - Samara Weaving, Juliette Lewis, and the cast's energy39:21 - One Night Only and the alternate-world sex law44:18 - What the film is really saying about dating and intimacy49:30 - Alley Cats: Ricky Gervais's animated cat hangout show55:33 - Why Alley Cats works better than expected58:48 - Weekly scores and the tightest result of the episode60:36 - Holly explains Noah's Shark in full glory64:31 - Listener challenge: send in worse shark movies67:28 - Plans for future spoiler rants, shark podcasts, and sign-offVerdictStreaming edges it this week, but the real money pick is Coyote vs. Acme.

In this episode, Chris Cochrane guest-hosts for his brother Ray and devotes the whole show to one event: Disney’s D23 2026 fan convention in Anaheim. Friday night delivered Marvel’s new X-Men cast, Adam Driver as Mister Sinister, a fresh Avengers: Doomsday trailer, and a release date for Frozen 3. Saturday turned to the parks, with Villains Land, an Indiana Jones dark ride, the long-awaited Expedition Everest yeti repair, and a Monsters Inc land opening in 2027. – Want to start a podcast?

Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Full Summary Chris Cochrane opens the show and explains why this episode breaks the usual format. Instead of six or eight unrelated stories, the entire episode covers Disney’s D23 convention, which he compares to Apple’s WWDC. For newcomers, he notes that D23 is Disney’s official fan club, named for the company’s founding year of 1923. This year’s event ran two nights at the Honda Center: Friday for movies and television, Saturday for the theme parks. Marvel Finally Casts the X-Men Friday’s headline was the X-Men. The Associated Press put the crowd near 12,000, and Marvel Studios used that stage to name its rebooted team. Christopher Abbott plays Professor Charles Xavier, Inde Navarrette plays Rogue, and Maya Boyd plays Storm. Adam Driver rounds out the group as the villain Mister Sinister. Meanwhile, Samara Weaving, Kit Connor, and Sadie Sink were already known as Emma Frost, Cyclops, and Jean Grey. Jake Schreier directs, and the film arrives May 5, 2028. Chris calls the lineup spot-on casting. He singles out Weaving as a perfect match for the comics, and he points out that Sink already appeared as Jean Grey in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Navarrette is the least established name, coming off a breakout role in an indie horror film. Boyd, meanwhile, was the name he knew least, with what he believes is a Broadway background. Above all, Chris hopes Marvel does the team justice, and he recommends the animated revival X-Men ’97 on Disney+ as the best place to start. Frozen 3 Gets a Date and a Chaotic Reveal Frozen 3 lands November 24, 2027. That is the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week, the same slot the first two films used. The story centers on Anna and Kristoff’s wedding, which a new villain, an evil Ice Queen, disrupts. Jennifer Lee returns to direct with Trent Correy, and the full voice cast is back. However, the reveal itself fell apart. Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel performed a darker arrangement of “Frozen Heart.” Meanwhile, the audio failed, the video failed, and a set of doors never opened. Menzel asked the crowd whether they should try it again, and Bell simply narrated everything that was supposed to happen. Afterward, Josh Gad sang “Oooh, Samantha,” a new love song for Olaf. Chris is here for it, since Olaf is one of the franchise’s best comic characters. Pixar, Disney Animation, and the Rest of Friday Night Pixar chief Pete Docter laid out a packed slate. Incredibles 3 hits summer 2028 and follows Violet and Dash sneaking out at night to fight crime. Chris hopes that finally shows a grown-up Jack-Jack. Coco 2 follows in November 2029 with Benjamin Bratt returning as Ernesto de la Cruz. That has fans puzzling over how a villain already in the Land of the Dead comes back. Additionally, Pixar showed an original called Ghost Market and a Venice-set cat film called Gatto. On the Disney Animation side, Zootopia 3 is confirmed. The live-action Tangled arrives March 31, 2028 with Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel. Chris considers that casting perfect after her turn in Agatha All Along. A live-action Lilo & Stitch sequel, a new Simpsons movie, a Bluey movie, and a Kingdom Hearts anime series round out the list. For Star Wars fans, Ahsoka returns January 20, 2027. Chris also offers a hot take: he prefers Rogue One to the entire sequel trilogy. Consequently, he welcomes original stories like Ryan Gosling’s upcoming Starfighter. Adam Driver Is Mister Sinister Driver appeared by video rather than in person. He told the crowd that he and Kevin Feige had talked for years about joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Then he announced he would play Magneto. After a long pause, he corrected himself to Nathaniel Milbury, which is Mister Sinister’s human alias. The gag landed because fans had floated Driver for Magneto for years. For anyone new to the comics, Chris explains that Mister Sinister is a geneticist obsessed with mutant DNA, a manipulator rather than a brawler. The cast met backstage only minutes earlier, so Chris is curious how their chemistry develops. Notably, Christopher Abbott previously worked with Driver on HBO’s Girls. The script comes from Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-showrunner Joanna Calo, two prestige-television names that have Chris excited. Why the X-Men Took Thirty Years to Reach the MCU A business story underlies the casting. In the 1990s, a financially struggling Marvel sold film rights to raise cash. Fox ended up with the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, and Sony took Spider-Man. As a result, Marvel Studios built its connected universe from 2008 onward without some of its most famous characters. The Hugh Jackman era of X-Men films belonged to Fox, with a separate continuity and no crossovers. That changed in 2019, when Disney closed its $71 billion purchase of 21st Century Fox’s film and television studio. Most coverage framed the deal as a streaming play, but it also brought the X-Men home. Chris sums it up neatly: Disney signed the paperwork in 2019, cast the film in 2026, and audiences see it in 2028. Ryan Gosling’s Starfighter, Ghost Rider, and VisionQuest Lucasfilm dated Star Wars: Starfighter for May 28, 2027. Gosling plays Kade Auberon, a pilot from the wrong side of the galaxy tied to the fastest starfighter ever built. Before he walked out, Disney played clips of him as a kid on The Mickey Mouse Club. Gosling said the company changed his life then and is changing it again now. He is also playing Ghost Rider in the Marvel universe. That thrills Chris, since Nicolas Cage last carried the character on the big screen. Meanwhile, the Disney+ series VisionQuest arrives October 14. Paul Bettany returns as Vision and James Spader as Ultron, and the trailer drops the two androids into oddly mundane human situations. Bettany joked that Vision has “rather inconveniently died several times.” Chris agrees the character has been through the wringer since WandaVision. The Avengers: Doomsday Trailer Avengers: Doomsday opens December 18, with Joe and Anthony Russo directing. Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, and Hayley Atwell introduced the new footage. It offers the clearest look yet at Downey as Doctor Doom, who fights off Thor and takes his hammer. Evans appears as Captain America holding a baby, and Ian McKellen shows up as a haggard, long-haired Magneto. One quieter shot has Doom staring at a portrait of a lost wife and child. That frames him as a grieving avenger rather than a world-ender. He also commands an army of comic-accurate Sentinels. The cast pulls from the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the legacy Fox X-Men, including Patrick Stewart. Hugh Jackman also appeared on screen to say he is willing to return as Wolverine, though that was not a confirmation. Chris, a self-described Marvel nerd, closes with a theory. He suspects the MCU’s Tony Stark was actually Victor von Doom, adopted by the Starks, which would explain the Downey casting. He also predicts the Fox-era X-Men die off in this film and that Thor may be the major casualty. If it happens, he wants credit for calling it.

Disney Parks Around the World Saturday’s Disney Experiences showcase covered parks, resorts, and cruise ships, with Neil Patrick Harris hosting. Hong Kong Disneyland gets an Avengers pavilion that reshapes its Stark Expo skyline. Shanghai Disneyland is building the first land devoted entirely to Spider-Man, complete with a new coaster. Since Spider-Man is his favorite hero, Chris hopes to visit once it opens. Closer to home, Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is doubling in size with two rides opening in 2028. Avengers: Infinity Defense brings back Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Chris Hemsworth, and Downey, while Stark Flight Lab adds Brie Larson. A Coco boat ride into the Land of the Dead is also coming, with no height requirement. Chris admits he prefers California Adventure to Disneyland because the rides are better. Overseas, Disneyland Paris will retire its Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain overlay at the end of 2027 and restore the original Jules Verne theme. Paris also gets the first ride ever based on The Lion King. Tokyo Disneyland adds Sugar Rush: Sweet Rescue, the first Wreck-It Ralph ride, plus a Space Mountain launch sequence designed with YouTuber Mark Rober. Finally, Disney Cruise Line announced three more ships, including the Disney Believe in 2027 and an entirely new class in 2029. Back in Anaheim, Tomorrowland is getting reimagined, which Chris welcomes because the land badly needs an update. The Magic Happens parade and the Remember Dreams Come True fireworks are both returning. For the tech crowd, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run now has a Fortnite crossover, where in-game missions unlock content on the real ride. Every New Walt Disney World Ride and Land Chris ranks the Florida parks Hollywood Studios first, then Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom leads the announcements with Villains Land, now the official name. It features a Maleficent coaster through an enchanted briar and a boat ride through the Evil Queen’s catacombs. Reporting puts its scale near Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and Glenn Close appeared in character as Cruella to announce it. Piston Peak, the Cars area replacing Tom Sawyer Island, adds two more rides, though their exact names remain unsettled. Additionally, the Carousel of Progress gets new scenes and a recast. Jamie Lee Curtis and Bryan Cranston will voice Mom and Dad starting late spring 2027. Chris, invoking Heisenberg, calls Cranston the GOAT. At Animal Kingdom, the Indiana Jones ride now has a name: Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent. It tells an original 1950 story inside a Maya temple, and Harrison Ford personally served as the physical model for the animatronic. Nearby, the Tropical Americas land brings Antonio’s Fiesta de Encanto, with more than fifty animal animatronics and no height requirement. Then comes the fix park regulars have wanted for years. The Expedition Everest yeti broke soon after the ride opened. Rather than fix it, Disney lit it with a strobe for over a decade, earning the nickname disco yeti. Now it is being repaired and returned to full motion. Chris rates Everest among his top five rides anywhere, and he suggests riding it before the fix so you can compare. Over at Epcot, Spaceship Earth gets its first major story rewrite in nearly twenty years, shifting from communication history to human connection. Dreamfinder also returns to Journey Into Imagination, and Disney Experiences chairman Thomas Mazloum introduced that news with two words: “we heard you.” Mazloum added that Disney has more projects underway than at any point in its history. After this rundown, Chris believes him. Monsters Inc Land Opens in 2027 Monstropolis begins opening at Hollywood Studios in early 2027, but in stages. The headline door coaster will not be ready on day one. It is the first suspended coaster in any Disney park. It also uses Disney’s first vertical lift, hauling riders about forty feet straight up before launching them into the door vault. Instead, the land opens with the Glob Theater’s “Welcome to Monstropolis” show and Harryhausen’s, a working sushi restaurant lifted from the first film. The stage show features an original song by Randy Newman, his first ever written for a theme park attraction. Chris also notes that the restaurant name honors stop-motion legend Ray Harryhausen. Wrapping up, Chris names the X-Men casting and the Doomsday trailer as his favorite moments of the weekend. He hopes to cover more movie news on future shows, and he plugs Dune: Part Three, which also opens December 18. Chris signs off with the usual mentions: GNC Insider at geeknewscentral.com/insider, email at geeknews@gmail.com, the newsletter, and modern podcast apps at podcastapps.com. He also thanks GoDaddy for over twenty years of support. The post Huge Announcements From D23!! #1873 appeared first on Geek News Central.

Mit „I Saw the TV Glow“ sorgte Jane Schoenbrun vor zwei Jahren für Aufsehen: Queere Themen wurden darin in eine düster- surreale Ästhetik verpackt, die bei Popkultur-Süchtigen einschlägige Knöpfe drückte. In „Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma“ erzählt Schoenbrun erneut eine transformative Geschichte, diesmal rund um eine fiktive Slasher-Franchise. Hannah Einbinder und Gillian Anderson wandeln blutbespritzt durch eine Welt der Horror-Referenzen und akademischen Zitate, in der auch Humor nicht zu kurz kommt. Pia Reiser und Christian Fuchs analysieren die vieldiskutierte Meta-Horror-Komödie – und besprechen gegen Ende noch einen anderen Splatter-Comedy-Mix, der via Streaming zu sehen ist. "Over Your Dead Body“ zeigt Samara Weaving und Jason Segel als Ehepaar, das gegenseitige Mordpläne schmiedet. Sendungshinweis: FM4 Film Podcast, 24.08.2026, 0 Uhr

The MCU X-MEN cast is here: Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Inde Navarrette as Rogue, Maya Boyd as Storm & Adam Driver as Mister Sinister. Naturally, everyone is being extremely calm and reasonable about it. We also dig into the AVENGERS DOOMSDAY news of David Harbour confirming Tony Stark?! Dave Bautista taking over as KRATOS in Amazon's GOD OF WAR series, and the LANTERNS fallout surrounding Hal Jordan's Death Scene — because apparently fandom needed a few more things to argue about this week. Plus: Shawn Levy & Ryan Gosling's GHOST RIDER coming together almost immediately while BLADE remains trapped somewhere in the Quantum Realm of development, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II speaking out about WONDER MAN, and the bigger question tying all of this together: Marvel. DC. God Of War. Everyone's happy. Everything's fine. Follow Coy Jandreau:  Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?l...

Jim Hill returns from the D23 Expo with a firsthand look at Marvel's latest reveals, while Dan Graney digs into a new Avengers: Doomsday trailer that appears to answer several theories from Episode 23. They break down Doctor Doom's motivations, Marvel's newly revealed X-Men cast, Vision Quest, and the latest trailer for Ahsoka Season 2. Then the conversation turns to a crossover that once sounded like a Patton Oswalt punchline but is now real: Marvel and Star Wars are officially colliding in the five-issue Hope Assembles comic series.

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.At D23 last week, Disney's fan event showcasing much of their upcoming film and tv projects, we were at last treated to a full trailer for VisionQuest, which will debut October 14 on Disney+. The third and final installment of the trilogy that includes WandaVision and Agatha All Along, VisionQuest looks like it will send us on a trippy ride with The Vision, played by Paul Bettany. Those of us angsting for Avengers: Doomsday story crumbs were also treated with a special look presented for the December blockbuster. The shorter trailer, which was first shown at San Diego Comic Con, starts with dialogue from Sue Storm, indicating our MCU Fantastic Four team is connected to Robert Downey, Jr.'s Victor von Doom.One of the most anticipated announcements in MCU history took place at D23, when Marvel Studios exec Kevin Feige announced the cast of the upcoming X-Men film. The cast includes Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Inde Navarrette as Rogue, Christopher Abbott as Professor Charles Xavier, and Maya Boyd as Storm. Adam Driver will be playing the villainous Mr. Sinister. The movie will be released on May 5, 2028 nearly 10 years after the Disney acquisition of Fox Studios and will kick off the three MCU movies coming out in 2028. The other big nerd-dom announcement at D23 was the release of a first trailer for Ahsoka season 2, which will premiere on January 20, 2027, on Disney+. Lars Mikkelson's Thrawn returns as the big bad for the Rebel Alliance, while in a galaxy truly far, far, away, Ahsoka and Sabine battle themselves and mystic threats while coming face to face with what it means to be a Jedi. This look at the show may clue us in as to why the debut date got pushed to next year. Shawn Levy and Ryan Gosling were also at D23 where a clip from Star Wars: Starfighter was shown, but has not yet been released publicly.Peacock has released the first trailer for season 2 of The Office spin off The Paper. The full season drops on September 9. At D23, Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed to Deadline that Johnny Depp is in early talks to reprise his role as Jack Sparrow in an upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean reboot. Sources also emphasize that Depp will serve as a side character, not a central character in the upcoming film. Spider-Man: Brand New Day has passed the $2 billion dollar mark after just 3 weeks in theaters, becoming the eighth film in history to hit the benchmark. The film is the second fastest to hit this mark only behind Avengers: Endgame. At D23, Disney offered up the first look at the live action adaptation of Tangled, which stars Teagan Croft, Milo Manheim, and Kathryn Hahn. The studio also announced a release date of March 31, 2028. Hayden Panettiere, known for her roles on shows such as Heroes and Nashville has died at the age of 36. At D23, Pixar showed off some very early concept art for Incredibles 3 and Coco 2. Incredibles 3 will debut on June 16, 2028 and Coco 2 is currently set for a November 2029 release. HBO has announced a season 2 renewal for It: Welcome to Derry, the It prequel series from Warner Bros. Television and executive producers Andy and Barbara Muschietti. At D23, Disney showed some early images of the live action Lilo & Stitch 2, which currently has a release date of May 28, 2028. 

This week we're covering two huge X-Men moments in one episode. First, we break down the back half of X-Men '97 Season 2 (episodes 5-9), Wolverine's Weapon X reunion, the Danger Room fallout, Colossus's turn to the Acolytes, Gambit's possession by Apocalypse, and that gut-punch finale where Nightcrawler sacrifices himself for Rogue. We also unpack the post-credits twist: Mystique replacing Val Cooper and Graydon Creed's election as President, and what that means for the Brotherhood of Mutants heading into Season 3. Then we shift gears to Marvel's live-action X-Men reboot, hitting theaters May 5, 2028. We react to the full cast reveal from D23:  Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, Inde Navarrette as Rogue, Maya Boyd as Storm, and Adam Driver as Mister Sinister — including the debate around finally casting Storm right and whether an unknown-actor bet like Maya Boyd's could be Marvel's next Hugh Jackman moment.

A mere year later, Samara Weaving is back on Collider Ladies Night. After many conversations in different interview formats, Weaving made her Ladies Night debut for the release of the wonderfully twisted comedy thriller Borderline in March 2025. In most cases, an actor would be lucky to dish out a film or two by the next year, but not Weaving. In just the last three months, she headlined three different movies. Even better? Every single one of them is fantastic.On March 20, Ready or Not 2: Here I Come hit theaters nationwide. Given the fact that the Ready or Not fanbase had been eagerly awaiting a sequel for seven years, the pressure was sky-high for it to deliver, and it did. Directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett far exceeded expectations with the new film. Soon after that, it was Jorma Taccone's remake of The Trip, Over Your Dead Body. Again, the pressure was on. The Trip came out a mere five years ago. Why do an American remake so soon? Like Ready or Not 2, the Over Your Dead Body team pulled it off. Taccone, Weaving, Jason Segel and the rest of the team managed to light up the screen with an edge-of-your seat genre bender that holds tight to its source material while giving it just enough of a fresh flavor to well justify another go-around with the story.A little over a month after Over Your Dead Body hit theaters, Weaving is giving us yet another gem — Carolina Caroline.From writer William Thomas Dean IV and director Adam Carter Rehmeier, Carolina Caroline stars Weaving as the title character. Caroline works as a gas station attendant in a small Texas town, but is itching for more. When she spots Kyle Gallner's Oliver pulling a clever con on her boss, sparks fly. Caroline packs up and hits the road with Oliver, learning everything she can about pulling off lucrative scams. With each success, their crimes get bigger, making it more and more difficult to keep clear of the authorities.With Carolina Caroline now playing in select theaters, Weaving returned to Collider Ladies Night to discuss her experience making the film, and to explain why this particular chapter of her career feels different. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

402 Avengers Doomsday New X-Men Lanterns Disney Villains LandDoom Scrolling IntroThe Foos are back after nearly a month away, and the backyard project is finally done — although Joe's arm is still messed up and Steph is recovering from a badly sprained ankle courtesy of Steph Kwon Do. They recap Anthony Jeselnik at the Ontario Improv and break down the 5 weirdos you always meet at a comedy club: the super fan, the punchline repeater, the wannabe opening act, the person terrified of crowd work, and the offended partner who suddenly turns date night into couples therapy.They also react to Motown legend Martha Reeves' viral national anthem performance and debate how much the lack of stage monitors, weather, backup vocals, and being 85 years old should factor into the criticism.Geeking Out starts with the new Avengers: Doomsday footage, including Doctor Doom facing off with the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men — plus a ridiculous moment involving Thor's Stormbreaker. The Foos get into Robert Downey Jr. as Doom, multiverse theories, and why Doom needs to be more than evil Tony Stark.Marvel also reveals its new X-Men lineup, with Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Indy Navarretti as Rogue, Maya Boyd as Storm, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, and Adam Driver as Mr. Sinister. Joe and Steph agree that starting with Mr. Sinister instead of immediately going back to Magneto is the smarter move.Star Wars: Starfighter brings Ryan Gosling into a new corner of the galaxy, while DC's Lanterns goes full True Detective with Hal Jordan and John Stewart investigating an alien-connected murder. Then Disney gets sinister with a massive Villains Land featuring Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Ursula, Scar, Jafar, Hades, Cruella, and more.Steph also previews the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and what comes with their membership before their upcoming visit.Here's What I Would Do brings two dilemmas: Andrea from La Habra takes an ancestry DNA test and accidentally discovers a 28-year-old half-sister her married father apparently never told the family about. Then Trevor from Escondido buys a storage unit and finds decades of family memories, military letters, photos, and a Purple Heart — forcing him to decide whether legally owning something means it's morally his to keep.ChaptersDoom Scrolling IntroBackyard finished + injuries5 Weirdos at a Comedy ClubAnthony Jeselnik recapMartha Reeves national anthemAvengers Doomsday trailer + Doctor DoomMarvel reveals the new X-MenAdam Driver as Mr. SinisterStar Wars Starfighter Ryan GoslingLanterns goes True DetectiveDisney Villains LandLucas Museum of Narrative ArtHere's What I Would Do Ancestry DNA surprise sisterHere's What I Would Do Storage unit Purple Heart dilemmaKing of the Hill Season 2Outro + Doom Scrolling OutroAvengers Doomsday, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr, new X-Men MCU, Mr Sinister, Adam Driver, Star Wars Starfighter, Ryan Gosling, Lanterns DC, Green Lantern, Disney Villains Land, Lucas Museum, Anthony Jeselnik, comedy club etiquette, ancestry DNA surprise, storage unit auction, King of the Hill

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Marvel Studios appears to have found the leader of its new mutant team, as Deadline reported last week that Heartstopper and Warfare star Kit Connor has landed the role of Scott Summers, better known as Cyclops, in the future MCU X-Men film. Sources say Connor went through much the same process as Samara Weaving, who was attached as Emma Frost the week prior, meeting with Schreier and Marvel president Kevin Feige alongside a group of candidates who tested after the July 4th holiday before the studio settled on him. Neither Marvel nor Connor has confirmed the casting, and the film, written by Beef creator Lee Sung Jin and The Bear co-creator Joanna Calo, still has no release date. Cyclops has been played on screen before by James Marsden and Tye Sheridan, with Marsden set to reprise the role in December's Avengers: Doomsday. Sony and Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day crossed the one-billion-dollar mark overseas in just twelve days of release, making it the second-fastest film ever to reach that number abroad behind Avengers: Endgame. The Destin Daniel Cretton film now stands at $1.67 billion worldwide, split between $654.3 million domestically and $1.013 billion internationally, which makes it the twelfth highest-grossing movie of all time and only the sixteenth ever to clear a billion in foreign markets alone. Universal had a milestone of its own to celebrate, as Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey passed $1.1 billion worldwide to become the highest-grossing film of his career ahead of The Dark Knight Rises, while also becoming the biggest IMAX release ever with $289 million, and it still has China to open on Friday. James Gunn spent part of a Threads session last week putting down one of the most persistent rumors surrounding Matt Reeves' Batman trilogy, telling a fan who asked whether The Batman Part III was being filmed simultaneously with Part II simply, “I can deny.” The theory had gained steam over years of delays, most recently when a redesigned Part II logo appeared to work a Roman numeral III into the artwork, and it offered fans a tidy explanation for why the sequel has taken so long to arrive. In reality, Part II only began principal photography in London in June, and Warner Bros. has already pushed the film from October 2027 to February 18, 2028. Sony and Nintendo's live-action The Legend of Zelda has cast Australian actor Uli Latukefu as Ganondorf under a multi-picture deal, with Severance's Dichen Lachman playing Impa and The Handmaid's Tale's Yvonne Strahovski reported as a queen character. The late Sam Neill also filmed an undisclosed role before his death on July 13, marking one of the final screen performances of his career.Gareth Edwards has exited Universal and Amblin's untitled Jurassic World Rebirth sequel over creative differences, with the studios now searching for a replacement; David Koepp's script is finished and Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali and Jonathan Bailey are all still expected back for a 2027 shoot.A24 released the full trailer for Primetime, the Lance Oppenheim drama that Robert Pattinson produces and stars in as To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen, in theaters September 25.Lionsgate has confirmed that Michael 2 is targeting a production start toward the end of this year or in early 2027, with the sequel to this year's Michael Jackson biopic aiming for a 2028 release.Lionsgate is also developing a new Leprechaun film written by horror veterans Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, reviving a franchise that ran eight movies between 1993 and 2018.Nicholas Hoult has been cast in season 2 of HBO's Harry Potter series as Gilderoy Lockhart, a major character in The Chamber of Secrets that was portrayed by Kenneth Branagh in the 2002 film adaptation.

Kristian Harloff breaks down the biggest movie news stories of the day, led by major Avengers: Doomsday updates as advance ticket sales begin generating huge buzz. With Marvel Studios preparing for its next massive Avengers event, Kristian discusses the early pre-sale numbers, the latest comments from the Russo Brothers, and whether Avengers: Doomsday could become another record-breaking MCU blockbuster. Plus, new reports raise questions about Marvel Studios' highly anticipated X-Men reboot as Charles Melton may no longer be in the running to play Hank McCoy/Beast. What does this mean for Marvel's new X-Men cast, and could a major announcement still be coming soon? The show also covers the first reactions to The End of Oak Street, with early viewers claiming the film finally "makes dinosaurs scary again," and Samara Weaving officially joins the growing cast of the live-action Legend of Zelda movie. Today's show is headlined by Avengers: Doomsday as anticipation continues to build for Marvel Studios' next massive crossover. Kristian looks at the early ticket sales and discusses whether the combination of Doctor Doom, the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and returning MCU characters could push Doomsday toward historic box office numbers. We also dive into the constantly evolving X-Men casting rumors, the surprisingly strong early buzz surrounding The End of Oak Street, and the latest addition to Nintendo's highly anticipated Legend of Zelda adaptation. If you're a fan of Avengers: Doomsday, Marvel Studios, X-Men, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr., Beast, The Legend of Zelda, or the latest movie news, this episode is for you. #AvengersDoomsday #Avengers #Marvel #MarvelStudios #MCU #DoctorDoom #RobertDowneyJr #XMen #Beast #CharlesMelton #LegendOfZelda #SamaraWeaving #TheEndOfOakStreet #MovieNews #BoxOffice #KristianHarloffShow #EntertainmentNews SPONSOR: Ka'Chava:  Go to https://kachava.com and use code KRISTIAN for 15% off your first order.

Rastislav, Stewart and Ken return with a pick that is sure to please. Over Your Dead Body from 2026 was recently released on Amazon Prime as a freebie but was originally released to independent film festivals and 1500 theatres.  This is a 2021 adaptation of the Tommy Wirkola film The Trip. Wanting an English version of this film, he came on to get the production going. By 2024 the film was taken over by Jorma Taccone as director, and Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney as screen writers. The film was then renamed to ‘Over Your Dead Body.' Like Tommy Wirkola's other films, this is a gory, violent, over the top horror/thriller with plenty of goofy moments with a pinch of no matter how bad things get, things can be worked out.The film starts with the married couple, who have marital differences, and begin to plot the others murder behind the others' back. Jason Segal who plays Dan intends to take her to a remote cabin on a lake for a vacation and then have her dumped into the lake after killing her. Unknown to him, his wife Lisa, played by Samara Weaving also has a plan to murder him by telling her friends they are going on a hunting trip, and to plan a ‘hunting accident.' The two find each other's plan and begin an all-out war for survival, but their plans become sidetracked when 2 recently escaped convicts and their corrupt corrections officer break into the cabin and hide in the attic. Now the war is not only between husband and wife, but also between husband, wife, and the convicts.The consensus is that this film is worthy of its name. There are plenty of goofy moments, over the top gore, and ketchup to satisfy lovers of this genre. This is not a film for families or those sensitive to violence. But for everyone else, it is an easy to watch film with great actors. If you like our over review of Dead Snow also by Tommy Wirkola, then this film is for you.Directed by Jorma Taccone and originally written by Tommy Wirkola, Nick Ball and John Iven. Major actors are Jason Segal, Samara Weaving, Timothy Olyphant, Keith Jardine, Juliette Lewis and Jake Curran. Rated 18A for violence, gore, some nudity and swearing. It has runtime of 1 hour and 45 minutes. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit unsungcinematics.substack.com

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast sees Taika Waititi, director of Hunt For The Wilderpeople, Zoom in for a cracking chat with Chris Hewitt about that movie's tenth anniversary re-release, his feelings about the loss of the great Sam Neill, the status of his What We Do In The Shadows sequel, New Zealand PSAs, and more. Either side of that, Chris is joined in the podbooth by Helen O'Hara and John Nugent to answer a listener question about the implications of Spider-Man: Brand New Day's record-breaking box office; discuss the week's movie news, including the Violent Night 2 trailer, Mummy 4 casting and the potential of Samara Weaving in the MCU; and review The Last House, Love Me Tender, and Nimrods: A Green Day Comedy. Oh, and Chris re-ignites his bitter feud (that totally exists, honest) with genius cinematographer, Greig Fraser. Your move, Fraser!

Marvel Studios has found its Scott Summers. Deadline reports that Kit Connor is the pick for Cyclops in the upcoming X-Men reboot, with the decision landing last week between Marvel president Kevin Feige and director Jake Schreier.Frank breaks down why this casting works and what it signals for the next era of the MCU. Connor is in the middle of a serious run right now, coming off Netflix's Heartstopper, Alex Garland's A24 war film Warfare, and the upcoming Elden Ring adaptation. Schreier, meanwhile, is coming straight off Thunderbolts, which earns him a lot of goodwill heading into a franchise this size.The bigger story is the shape of the roster. With Samara Weaving attached to Emma Frost and Sadie Sink revealed as Jean Grey in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the picture forming here is a noticeably younger X-Men team than longtime fans are used to seeing on screen. Frank makes the case that this is a deliberate reset, not a compromise, and that casting the field captain this young means Marvel is building a team meant to grow over many years.Quick headline drop, strong opinion, and a full discussion coming on the next Geek Freaks Podcast.0:00 Marvel Casts Its New Cyclops0:04 Why Kit Connor Is Everywhere Right Now0:16 Does He Look the Part as Scott Summers0:19 Feige and Jake Schreier Made the Call0:23 The Thunderbolts Factor0:31 A Younger X-Men Roster Comes Into Focus0:40 Your Turn on the CastingKit Connor is Marvel Studios' choice to play Scott Summers, better known as Cyclops, per a Deadline exclusive.The call was made last week by Kevin Feige and director Jake Schreier after a casting process that ran through the summer.Schreier directed Thunderbolts, and that track record is a big reason confidence is high on this project.Connor's recent run includes Heartstopper on Netflix, A24's Warfare, and the Elden Ring film adaptation.Connor slots in alongside another Netflix breakout, with Sadie Sink already revealed as Jean Grey.Samara Weaving is attached to Emma Frost, so three mutants are now spoken for.The through line across all of it is age. This is a younger team than any live-action X-Men lineup we have seen, and it points toward a long runway for the franchise.Scott Summers first appeared in 1963's The X-Men #1 from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby and has anchored the team as field leader ever since."We have our Cyclops.""Kit Connor's on fire right now.""Frankly, Kit looks like a perfect Scott Summers in my opinion.""Damn, Thunderbolts was good.""A much younger cast than maybe we're familiar with, and I think a sign for the future of the MCU.""No complaints on my side."What do you think about Kit Connor joining the team?

Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.Tom Holland's fourth outing as Peter Parker/Spider-Man opened to a massively successful box office, shattering the domestic opening record previously held by Avengers: Endgame, and raking in nearly $1 billion globally in its first weekend alone - so while it beat Endgame's North American opening take, it comes in just behind it globally. Not a bad start for Disney and Marvel Studios as the conversation around superhero movies ebbs and flows in the zeitgeist. Those numbers exclude the premium IMAX format, as Spidey couldn't web up those screens due to The Odyssey still holding all IMAX screens.While Marvel is on their Spidey high, other headlines have circled the news this week - some good and some disappointing. On a positive note - Samara Weaving has reportedly been cast as Emma Frost. Horror fans will recognize Weaving from the Ready or Not films. Obsession breakout star Inde Navarette confirmed her meeting with Jake Schreier and she mentioned interest in playing Mystique. And for the bad news, Wonder Man will not get a season two after all - even though it was confirmed earlier this year - and both Kevin Feige and Maershala Ali expressed regret about the Blade film; with Feige admitting he feels like a failure for not getting it off the ground and Ali saying he's done with the project. Last week, DC Studios and HBO's Booster Gold series writer David Jenkins said that the project is no longer moving forward. Shortly after he made this statement, IGN reported that the series will, in fact, be moving forward, but with a new creative team. The New York Times reported that Barbie 2 is currently stalled, with Warner Bros. struggling to come to terms with lead talent Greta Gerwig, Margot Robbie, and Ryan Gosling. The studio has until December to reach a deal before the right revert back to Mattel. Stephen King's 1996 novel Desperation is getting a film adaptation from Final Destination: Bloodlines directing duo Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein. Sam Raimi will also produce the feature, his first time working with King. Sony Pictures has released the first trailer for Jumanji: Open World, which opens in theaters on December 25. The film returns franchise stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart and Karen Gillan. Amazon MGM Studios is developing a Warhammer 40k animated event series alongside the upcoming live-action version, sources close to the project confirmed to Deadline. Additionally, Henry Cavill, who is set to star, is also on board to be an executive producer.Dave Bautista is in talks to take on the lead role of Kratos in Prime Video's God of War series, replacing Ryan Hurst, who had to drop out of production after he sustained an on set stunt injury. Mary Holland, Star of Ghosts and The Little House on the Prairie, has been cast in a lead role as Sandra in the upcoming DC Studios and HBO Max Superman spin off series that centers on Jimmy Olsen. In a recent interview with Inverse, Jessica Henwick revealed that she declined an offer to reprise her role as Colleen Wing in Daredevil: Born Again season three because she wants to protect the character's perfect ending in Netflix's Iron Fist.
