According to *The Playlist*, the upcoming *Cliffhanger* remake aims for a realistic and thrilling experience, similar to *The Shallows* in its intensity and *The Grey* in its emotional depth. It will focus on the characters’ struggles rather than relying on over-the-top action. Row K previously described it as a major cinematic event and has scheduled its release for August 28, 2026. While August is often a slow month for movie releases, this timing could actually help the film stand out, as it avoids direct competition with the biggest summer hits.

In an interview with Bloody Disgusting, Robert Englund shared that *Freddy vs. Jason* is his favorite *A Nightmare on Elm Street* movie. The film brought him back to his iconic role as Freddy Krueger, this time facing off against Jason Voorhees from the *Friday the 13th* series. This epic showdown is a major reason the movie is so well-remembered, and it’s become one of the most important and impactful slasher films of all time.

In an interview with *Rolling Stone*, James Gunn characterized the upcoming *Supergirl* movie as a “space adventure.” He then compared it to *Guardians of the Galaxy*, the 2014 Marvel film he directed with Nicole Perlman. *Guardians of the Galaxy* was a huge success, earning over $773 million worldwide on a budget of under $200 million, and it received overwhelmingly positive reviews, achieving a 92% rating on both Rotten Tomatoes’ “Certified Fresh” and “Popcornmeter” scores.

The newest episode of Gen V Season 2 marks a major reveal: Cipher’s true identity. It turns out that the man everyone knew as Cipher wasn’t actually a person at all, but Doug Brightbill, whose body had been secretly controlled by Thomas Godolkin for years.

But, Netflix is just like a defibrillator for forgotten flops and underappreciated bombs alike, and Vacation has jumped straight to the number two spot on the platform after being added to the streamer’s library of movies. For those who managed to completely forget this movie exists, the synopsis reads:

Chris doesn’t handle the truth well at first. When she hears about the steroid accusations, she immediately denies them, even correcting her husband when he calls it a rumor – she insists it’s a lie. Discovering that a former teammate, Tunde Johnston, started the story only makes things worse, and Chris reacts poorly. After a night out, she drunkenly leaves a furious, profanity-filled voicemail for Tunde, threatening her and demanding to know if she understands who Chris is. Predictably, the voicemail goes viral as soon as Tunde releases it. When Alex confronts Bro Hartman about broadcasting the voicemail on his podcast, he points out his popularity and financial power – essentially, he controls Alex’s salary. He also argues that a scandal involving America’s beloved gold medalist is big news, and Alex knows it. Alex is left speechless, responding only with a string of expletives.
