Podcasts about spider verse

Ryan Gosling has teamed up with Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (The Lego Movie and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) for the new sci-fi movie Project Hail Mary. It's based on a novel by Andy Weir (The Martian), and tells the story of a molecular biologist who winds up on a one-way mission into space to save Earth's population. If that all sounds incredibly bleak, fear not: you can expect quirk, charm, and a cutesy alien creature.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureTo manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

With Avatar 3 on the horizon and the long-term roadmap for Pandora expanding, Cameron's latest comments offer insight into how far the series could go. In classic action movie news, Sylvester Stallone is producing a new Rambo prequel, expanding the iconic action franchise that began with First Blood. What could this prequel explore about John Rambo's early life and military history, and how might Stallone remain involved with the project? Finally, we dive into the upcoming Spider-Noir live-action series, as the showrunner discusses the possible connection to the Spider-Verse and how the new show might fit into Sony's expanding Spider-Man universe.

On this episode of Moving Panels, Laramy Wells and cohost Tim Williams continue their March Madness month focusing on great comic book villains by diving into Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.Along the way, they discuss the groundbreaking animation, the rise of Miles Morales as Spider-Man, and the creative designs of the many Spider-People across the multiverse—including Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Ham, and Peni Parker.They also explore the film's memorable villains like Kingpin, Doctor Octopus, and Green Goblin, while connecting the movie to the comic storyline Spider-Verse—where Morlun and the Inheritors hunt Spider-People across the multiverse.

PROBING THE MINDS BEHIND PROJECT HAIL MARY!! Coy Jandreau of sits down with the creative team behind the new sci-fi odyssey “Project Hail Mary,” in theatres March 20th, adapted from Andy Weir's bestselling novel. Known for his hard-science storytelling in The Martian, Weir's story follows Ryland Grace — a lone astronaut tasked with saving Earth from an extinction-level cosmic threat — who forms an unexpected bond with an alien ally while racing to solve a universe-spanning mystery. Coy speaks with directors Phil Lord & Chris Miller (The LEGO Movie, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, 21 Jump Street) about the challenge of bringing the film's unusual friendship between Ryland Grace and the alien Rocky to life, including the use of puppetry and performance to create an emotional connection with a character who speaks in musical tones. The interview also features screenwriter Drew Goddard (The Cabin in the Woods, Bad Times at the El Royale, The Martian adaptation) discussing the six-year process of adapting the novel's massive scale and emotional core for the screen. Author Andy Weir shares insight into the optimistic philosophy behind his sci-fi writing and how seeing his creations realized onscreen — including the alien Rocky — became “retroactively canon” once the film's designs were brought to life. The conversation also includes stars Ryan Gosling (La La Land, Blade Runner 2049, Barbie) and Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest), who discuss building the film's human relationships and themes of resilience, discovery, and what humanity is capable of when faced with the impossible. From ambitious sci-fi spectacle to deeply personal storytelling, Project Hail Mary aims to blend the wonder of classic space epics like 2001: A Space Odyssey, Interstellar, and Gravity with a heartfelt story about friendship, survival, and humanity's ability to solve impossible problems together.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish released in December 2022 as an unexpected masterpiece that caught audiences and critics completely off guard. What could have been just another disposable animated sequel instead became a profound meditation on mortality, anxiety, and finding meaning in our finite lives.Legendary swashbuckler Puss in Boots confronts his own death, quite literally, in the form of a terrifying wolf, after losing eight of his nine lives to reckless overconfidence. What makes this DreamWorks sequel so remarkable is its willingness to tackle genuinely heavy themes with sophistication while delivering breathtaking Spider-Verse-inspired animation that redefined what the studio could achieve visually, and is a love letter to fairy tales, making every frame a piece of art, showcasing how creativity can transform storytelling in animation.Puss's journey in this film isn't just about chasing wishes; it's about confronting fears and embracing life, showing that even legends can feel vulnerable.The legacy of Puss in Boots: The Last Wish extends far beyond its box office success and critical acclaim. It proved that animated films could explore existential dread and panic attacks without talking down to audiences of any age, and it demonstrated that a mid-budget sequel could outshine its predecessors through sheer artistic ambition and emotional honesty, as an animated movie about a fairy tale cat became one of the most unexpectedly powerful animated features of the 2020s, and its antagonist; the personification of Death itself, became one of animation's most memorable villains in years.Support Verbal DioramaLoved this episode?

070 - GOAT, Dir. Tyree Dilly / Adam Rosette Sony Pictures Animation Studio has some really wonderful movies under it's belt, namely  2018's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and 2023's Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse as well as 2021's The Mitchells vs the Machines.  All three are pretty excellent movies with emphasis on 2018's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse bringing Sony Pictures Animations back into the scope of being a major player in the animation space once again.   GOAT shares the distinct style and unique visual presentation of the previously mentioned as well as some interesting character designs with some of the strong writing and story beats.  GOAT is certainly odd in its approach but looks amazing and comes together as a movie, though not as the overall quality package as some others.  Kids will love it though! 0:00:00 - Introductions and Banter 0:09:40 - Box Office  0:12:30 - Trailer - The Bride, Dir, Maggie Gyllenhaal 0:20:15 - Movie Recommendation- Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) 0:27:15 - Sony Pictures Animations Filmography  0:49:35 - GOAT, Dir.

Hello and welcome to Bill vs the MCU! Each month your hosts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Pop Break Podcasting Director Alex Marcus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Pop Break Editor in Chief Bill Bodkin⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ are taking another step into the wider Marvel Multiverse as the MCU dives deeper into their Multiverse Saga.Bill & Alex spent all of 2022 rewatching the first four phases of the MCU, and, in the years since, they have covered the first four seasons of Agents of SHIELD, the entire Netflix Defenders Saga, Fox's X-Men,  Fantastic Four, and Daredevil films, the Blade trilogy, a few Punisher films, Ang Lee's Hulk, and, most recently, Marvel's Modern Animation line up of shows.This month, Alex & Bill are celebrating Valentine's Day by covering the most romantic Spider-Man franchise: The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the two films Sony made because they contractually had to make…something. These films star Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, and a wildly overqualified cast of supporting players. They get into how these films came into being, what about them works better than you might remember, what about them is even worse than you thought was possible, and what Sony's Spider-Man Cinematic Universe that almost was might have looked like before they fired Garfield and kicked the franchise's creative direction over the Marvel Studios for a second reboot in under a decade.They also give early thoughts on Wonder Man and the latest trailer for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, both of which the pod will cover in their July 2026 episode.Come back next month for part three of Podding the Spider-Verse with reviews of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018), now streaming on Netflix, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023), now streaming on Disney Plus!

Yeah we a bit late to the party but we're ready to party none the less! Some big news dropped before and during New York Toy Fair 2026 and we are here for it. The future of TMNT at Mattel, NECA dropping some great new licenses, and even some more obscure lines like MASK, JEM and ol' mate Toxie get some love here. There's SO much to talk about, we actually leave some big licenses OFF this ep so we can chat about it with a Canadian expert next week! Who had the most Shuttup and Take My Monies?

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesPrime Video unveiled the first trailer for Spider-Noir, starring Nicolas Cage in his first leading TV role as Ben Reilly—a name change from the Peter Parker version he voiced in Into the Spider-Verse—a down-on-his-luck 1930s New York private investigator forced to reckon with his past as the city's only superhero. The trailer also teased multiple villains and concluded with the tagline With No Power Comes No Responsibility. The eight-episode series is set to launch May 27 as a full binge release with each episode available in both black-and-white and color versions.Lucasfilm dropped the first full trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu Tuesday morning, setting up Star Wars' return to theaters after seven years with Din Djarin and Grogu enlisted by the New Republic to combat scattered Imperial warlords. The May 22 release directed by Jon Favreau and co-written with newly promoted Lucasfilm president Dave Filoni features Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver as former Rebel pilot Colonel Ward, and Jeremy Allen White voicing Rotta the Hutt, with footage showcasing Coruscant, Hoth, gladiator fights, and action sequences far bigger than the Disney+ series. Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights capitalized on Valentine's Day weekend with $83M globally ($37.5M domestic, $45.5M international), marking Warner Bros' ninth consecutive number one opening. Sony's GOAT overperformed with $35.1M domestic; the best opening for an original animated film since Pixar's Element, while Amazon MGM's Crime 101 stumbled with just $16.3M domestic against its $90M budget. The romantic drama skewed heavily female with 76% of audiences and represents record openings for both Fennell and Jacob Elordi, though the holiday boost may be short-lived as GOAT already beat it on both Sunday and Monday.Jason Momoa will star in Sony Pictures and PlayStation Productions' film adaptation of Helldivers, directed by Justin Lin, set to hit theaters on November 10, 2027. The film is based on the popular video game franchise in which an elite unit of soldiers called Helldivers battle alien creatures threatening the fictional planet of Super Earth, with Helldivers 2 having sold more than 12 million units in its first four months after its 2024 launch.Blumhouse-Atomic Monster and Behaviour Interactive have tapped David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and Alexandre Aja to write the feature film adaptation of the horror video game Dead by Daylight. Aja will not direct the film as he is committed to directing Under Paris 2 for Netflix, so the companies are beginning the search for a director, with James Wan, Jason Blum, and Stephen Mulrooney serving as producers.James Van Der Beek, the actor best known for playing Dawson Leery on the hit teen drama Dawson's Creek, died on February 11, 2026, at age 48 after battling Stage 3 colorectal cancer. Van Der Beek was diagnosed with the disease in 2023 and made his diagnosis public in November 2024, with his family confirming he passed peacefully and met his final days with courage, faith, and grace.Apple has acquired the IP and all rights to Severance from producer Fifth Season in a deal worth just under $70 million, with Apple Studios now producing future seasons in-house while Fifth Season remains as an executive producer. The series has been renewed for Season 3 with a fourth season considered a lock, and showrunner Dan Erickson and director Ben Stiller are open to expanding the franchise with prequels, spinoffs, and foreign versions to keep fans engaged during gaps between seasons.Lionsgate and Saber Interactive have announced a AAA John Wick video game in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with Keanu Reeves reprising his role providing the character's look, voice, and involvement in production alongside franchise director Chad Stahelski.

Squeaks, Frank, Jon and Thomas cover a packed episode that jumps from dream low-stakes spin-off ideas (God of War politics, Fallout slice-of-life, and cozy Shire chaos) into real-world hype around the Spider-Noir trailer and how Nicolas Cage changes the whole vibe in the best way. From there, the crew breaks down standout PlayStation State of Play reveals, including what they want from a God of War trilogy remake, why Game Freak's new project has people paying attention again, and which upcoming titles actually look worth the time. Then the conversation shifts into a big streaming debate: weekly releases vs binge drops vs the hybrid "first 2–3 episodes, then weekly" model. They dig into what works for mystery box shows like WandaVision and Severance, what falls apart when the writing doesn't match the release strategy, and why some series thrive when fans have time to theory-craft between episodes. The episode wraps with network updates and weekly recommendations, including a Cyclops comic shoutout and a heartfelt nod to Stevie's retirement from Good Mythical Morning after 13 years. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Intro and crew check-in (Squeaks, Frank, John, plus a Thomas cameo) 00:00:35 Icebreaker: what massive franchise needs a low-stakes spin-off? 00:00:58 God of War spin-off pitch: Olympus politics, Spartan POV, and "collateral damage" storytelling 00:02:11 Frank's pitch: a Stardew Valley-style Fallout town rebuilding above ground 00:02:43 Jon's pitch: a cozy "life in the Shire" Lord of the Rings series 00:03:48 Thomas's pitch: smaller-scale Jurassic Park stories from a visitor or staff POV 00:05:06 Listener ideas from social: Zootopia case-of-the-week, Han Solo pulp vibes, law-and-order sketch artists 00:05:48 Spider-Noir trailer reactions: tone, action, investigation, and why Cage works 00:07:26 Prime Video adaptation trust: Fallout, The Boys, Invincible, and what Spider-Noir might get right 00:08:17 Rings of Power tangent: why "faithful" is complicated when rights are limited 00:09:02 Is Spider-Noir the Spider-Verse version or a variant? The crew debates 00:10:16 What fans actually want: more detective noir or more superhero chaos? 00:12:20 PlayStation State of Play recap begins: overall reactions and standout reveals 00:13:24 God of War trilogy remake talk and why "remake" matters more than "remaster" 00:13:56 Game Freak frustration, Pokémon burnout, and why a new IP could reset expectations 00:14:47 Classic vibes: the pull of 2D action and Castlevania-style nostalgia 00:15:52 Kena: Bridge of Spirits sequel excitement and "30-minute gaming" for busy adults 00:17:02 Star Wars Galactic Racers and the return of pod-racing energy 00:17:24 Project Wilderness: rooster warriors, Korean fantasy roots, and "The Bird That Drinks Tears" curiosity 00:21:13 Ride-or-die studios: Rockstar, Blizzard talk, and Saber's trust factor 00:21:31 John Wick game discussion: expectations, violence, and the question of gameplay style 00:23:40 Severance and Apple ownership: what expansion could look like without killing the mystery 00:26:59 The goats, the branches, and why answers can end the show 00:28:04 Spin-off pitch: military uses of severance tech and the darker implications 00:29:51 Helldivers movie with Jason Momoa: comedy vs serious tone, and how to make it work 00:33:02 Main topic: weekly episodes vs binging vs hybrid release models 00:36:22 Why weekly wins for theorizing, community talk, and "watercooler" moments 00:39:36 The hybrid model: dropping 2–3 episodes first, then weekly 00:41:09 Binge model strengths: completion, momentum, and not forgetting the show exists 00:48:05 Which genres fit which release style? Mystery box, character drama, sitcoms, and action 00:57:19 Network updates: upcoming shows, format shifts, and what's next across the Geek Freaks Network 00:58:19 Recommendations: Cyclops comic spotlight and Stevie's Good Mythical Morning retirement tribute Key Takeaways Big franchises can feel fresh again with smaller stories that focus on everyday life, side characters, and worldbuilding instead of saving the universe. Spider-Noir looks like it's leaning into style and personality, and Nicolas Cage makes it feel like its own thing instead of "another Spider-Man." Prime Video's track record with adaptations is earning trust, even when the company itself is a mixed bag for fans. State of Play talk lands on a simple truth: remakes need to feel rebuilt, not just polished. Game Freak has goodwill to win back, and a new IP might be their best shot to prove they can still deliver quality. Release models matter because writing matters. A weekly show needs episodes that stand on their own, not just pieces of a long movie. Weekly releases fuel theorizing, discussion, and community engagement. Binge releases maximize momentum and completion. The "2–3 episode premiere, then weekly" approach can be the sweet spot when it's planned from the start. Memorable Quotes "I want a Stardew Valley set in the Fallout universe." "Nicolas Cage is not a Spider-Man… Spider-Man is being made into a Nicolas Cage character." "It's not a remaster. It's a remake." "Once we find out what's up with the goats, the show's over." "That's a watercooler moment because everybody was like, wait, what happened?"

In deze aflevering van Nerd Culture duiken we vol in noir-spinnen, mutant turtles en nostalgie met een hoofdletter N. Van een zwart-wit Nicolas Cage als Spider-Noir tot de geannuleerde, R-rated The Last Ronin die stiekem een vervolg had moeten zijn op de TMNT-film uit 1990; het is weer zo'n week waarin IP's botsen met creatieve ambities.We bespreken trailers, onverwachte updates en studio's die groot inzetten op hun kroonjuwelen: Paramount dat Turtle-power industrialiseert, Apple dat Severance volledig naar zich toetrekt, en Sony dat eindelijk beweging laat zien rondom Spider-Verse. Ondertussen blikken we terug op klassiekers, checken we nieuwe series en stellen we de vraag: wanneer is franchise-uitbreiding slimme wereldbouw… en wanneer wordt het puur machtsvertoon? Welkom bij Nerd Culture #246.Amazon dropt Spider-Noir TrailerWe duiken in het schaduwrijk van Spider-Noir, waarin Nicolas Cage opnieuw het web spint, maar dit keer in live-action. Geen standaard Spider-Man, geen Peter Parker, maar Ben Reilly als doorrookte privédetective in een depressie-era New York. Cage kanaliseert Humphrey Bogart, een vleugje Edward G. Robinson en – jawel – zelfs Bugs Bunny, en giet dat alles in een noir-jasje dat je zowel in kleur als in stijlvol zwart-wit kunt bekijken. Wat krijg je als je Marvel-mythologie mixt met jaren '30 film noir, radio-serial vibes en Hopper-achtige melancholie? In deze aflevering bespreken we hoe deze serie balanceert tussen pulp, kunst en comic book bombast — en of dit een creatieve heruitvinding is waar het genre op zat te wachten.Paramount gaat all-in op TMNTDaarnaast kijken we naar hoe Paramount vol inzet op Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles als compleet entertainment-universum. Onder nieuw Skydance-leiderschap wordt de franchise uitgerold over élke doelgroep: van de peutervriendelijke Teeny Mutant Ninja Turtles-YouTube-serie tot een volwassen proza-adaptatie van The Last Ronin, en een middle-grade boek met Splinter's Dojo. Daar blijft het niet bij. Mattel neemt vanaf 2027 de speelgoedlijn over, gekoppeld aan Mutant Mayhem 2 en een nieuwe live-action/CG-hybridefilm in 2028. Voeg daar Turtle-pizzeria's, heruitgaven van The Secret of the Ooze en crossovers aan toe, en het is duidelijk: dit is geen losse sequel-strategie, dit is een ecosysteem. De vraag die wij stellen: is dit slimme wereldbouw… of pure IP-exploitatie in slow motion?

This week on PREVIOUSLY ON…, Jason and Rosie discuss the trailer for Amazon’s upcoming live-action Spider-Noir series, starring Nicolas Cage as he reprises the titular role from the animated Spider-Verse films. They also break down the trailers for the 2D side-scrolling God of War: Sons of Sparta and an untitled John Wick game, both revealed during Sony’s State of Play. From there, they cover the news that F1 is getting a sequel, along with the surprising announcement that Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz are returning to The Mummy franchise for a new installment set to release in 2028. They also discuss a promotional single for the upcoming season of AMC’s The Vampire Lestat, recorded by Lestat’s in-universe vampire band, and the news that Terminator Zero has been canceled at Netflix after one season. Next, they dive into the announcement that Jason Momoa has been tapped to star in a Justin Lin–directed adaptation of the Helldivers game series. They also cover the addition of a new Warlock class across multiple games as part of the Diablo franchise’s 30th anniversary celebration. Finally, they close with the sad news that Dawson’s Creek star James Van Der Beek has tragically passed away from cancer at the young age of 48.

SPIDER-GWEN & SPIDER-PUNK spin-off movies are officially moving forward at Sony Pictures, and the Spider-Verse future just got a lot bigger. On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down the major confirmation that Spider-Gwen and Spider-Punk solo films are in active development and what this means for Sony's expanding Spider-Man universe. We also react to new comments from director Destin Daniel Cretton about the Spider-Man: Brand New Day trailer, including his surprising claim that Marvel Studios showed little interest in Wonder Man. What does that say about Marvel's shifting priorities, and how could it affect future MCU storytelling? Plus, the new Spider-Noir trailer teases an existential crisis, classic villains, and stylish web-swinging action. We analyze the tone, themes, and how this darker Spider-Man story fits into the broader Spider-Verse lineup. Finally, we discuss the latest Avengers: Doomsday update as the film's directors confirm that Steve Rogers will have a central role in the movie's story. How does Captain America factor into the next Avengers event, and what does this mean for the MCU moving forward?
