The studio has tentatively titled the new movie Game of Thrones: Aegon’s Conquest, though they note the title could change. This movie is confirmed as part of Warner Bros.’ plans for future releases starting in 2027. It represents a significant expansion of the Game of Thrones universe, which has been hugely popular with the original series and the House of the Dragon prequel.

Warner Bros. revealed the cast for their new film, The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, at CinemaCon. Andy Serkis will reprise his role as Gollum (and Smeagol), and will also direct the movie. Joining him are familiar faces like Ian McKellen as Gandalf, Elijah Wood as Frodo, and Kate Winslet, who will play a new character named Marigol. Jamie Dornan will portray Strider, Leo Woodall will play Halvard, and Lee Pace returns as Thranduil.

Thriller films come in many forms, ranging from slow, suspenseful stories to fast-paced, action-packed crime dramas. If you enjoy crime movies, Prime Video offers a great selection, including both clever heist stories and intense hitman films. Prime Video consistently produces quality original thrillers, and Chris Hemsworth’s upcoming 2026 movie is another example of their success.

A new trailer for J.J. Abrams’ upcoming sci-fi fantasy film, The Great Beyond, debuted at CinemaCon. This is Abrams’ first time directing a feature film since 2019. Starring Jenna Ortega and Powell, the movie’s plot has been kept secret until now, but the trailer offered a first look at the story.

Jesse Solomon’s party has a loose Vegas theme – think a VIP rope sectioning off the couches and an inflatable cabana in the pool (which, admittedly, is pretty cool). It seems like most of the guests are girls Jesse and West invited the night before, probably while they were at Hampton Social or wherever young people drink those BuzzBallz these days. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Danielle Olivera on the dance floor. West tells Jesse one of the girls is attractive, and she quickly seeks him out for some playful flirting – she bears a striking resemblance to someone from the Nader family. Hopefully, you won’t need a mental health day or a break from your ‘For You’ page if you get that reference.

Warner Bros. gave fans a first look at the highly anticipated sequel, Practical Magic 2, at CinemaCon on Tuesday, April 14. ScreenRant was present as Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman’s returns as Sally and Gillian Owens were revealed. The new fantasy film, set 25 years after the original 1998 movie Practical Magic, will arrive in theaters on September 11, 2026.

The post-credits scene introduces Princess Daisy, but doesn’t reveal how she’ll become involved with the story’s main characters. We simply see her arrive at the Gateway Galaxy and prevent a Ukkiki from stealing something.

While Taylor Sheridan was building his Western saga, a wave of truly excellent action thrillers emerged on streaming services.

From satirical takes on corporate greed in a post-apocalyptic world to a politically savvy Star Wars series and a surprisingly emotional spy thriller, there’s a lot of variety. Here are nine shows that surpass anything Taylor Sheridan has created.
