Charlie, a character comedian Firstman often plays, is energetic, outspoken, and playfully wild. This persona first gained popularity online when he pretended to be the publicist for banana bread during the pandemic. He’s since appeared as a heightened, chaotic version of himself in the film Rotting in the Sun and as a quirky love interest on the TV show English Teacher. Firstman describes Charlie as a mix of Samantha Jones from Sex and the City – confident and direct – and Ari Gold from Entourage – someone who’s effective and gets things done. What makes Charlie stand out is his genuineness; he isn’t trying to be conventionally attractive or appeal to those unfamiliar with gay culture. He’s as fashionable, clever, and sometimes frustrating as the real people you’d find at a place like Akbar.

In November, he expressed how much he’d enjoy working with Francis Lawrence, Jennifer Lawrence, Liam Hemsworth, and Woody Harrelson again, saying he’d be on set immediately if given the chance. Fans likely feel the same way.

This is particularly noteworthy because the previous Spartacus series never achieved a rating above 80%. While the original show and its spin-off were often criticized for being overly dramatic and focusing too much on sex and violence, overshadowing the plot, House of Ashur is now facing accusations of being overly focused on current social issues. So, what’s behind this mixed reaction?
Dissidia Duellum Final Fantasy is a new mobile game for iOS and Android where two teams of three players compete to defeat monsters. Teams race against each other to level up and be the first to defeat the stage boss. It’s different from previous Dissidia games. When I started, the game had impressive graphics, let me choose a starting character (I picked Cloud), and explained the story – why Final Fantasy heroes are battling in modern Tokyo. Then, I went through the standard mobile game tutorial.
This year’s special reward ship is the Fek’Ihri Vok’Tar Temporal Science Vessel. The Fek’Ihri are an enigmatic alien race linked to Gre’thor, the Klingon afterlife where dishonored souls suffer.
