Imagine a blend of the martial arts action of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon with the high-octane energy of Mad Max: Fury Road, and you’ll get Blades of the Guardians. The story takes place in a desert landscape where various groups – swordsmen, the government, and western clans – are locked in a power struggle. We follow Dao Ma, a renowned bounty hunter, who accepts a job to escort a man to the city of Chang’an. He soon realizes his charge is a fugitive wanted by the entire empire, and a dangerous chase begins as every faction vies to capture him.

The full lineup of new releases is out, and it shows that Silent Night will be available to stream on April 29th. In the meantime, action fans can enjoy several movies added earlier this month, including the 2024 action thriller The Beekeeper starring Jason Statham, and the sci-fi blockbuster Pacific Rim Uprising.

ABC’s most popular drama is finishing its season surprisingly early in the 2025-2026 TV season. Because it started airing sooner than most shows, it’s also ending its run ahead of schedule. Despite the quick turnaround, the series has covered a lot of ground with characters like Morgan and Karadec, and the LAPD’s Major Crimes unit, including a major turning point in a key relationship.

Milly Alcock, who plays Supergirl, decided not to contact previous actresses who’ve played the role, such as Sasha Calle and Melissa Benoist, when she was preparing. She wanted to create her own unique interpretation of the character and stay focused on her vision. As she explained, they’re just individuals going about their lives, and there wasn’t a special connection between them. Alcock preferred to rely on her own instincts and build the performance independently (according to Vanity Fair).

Merced shared a video on Instagram showing off her fit back, writing “I love my trainer.” It seems her trainer was the one filming.

What I enjoy most about XO, Kitty is the family Kitty builds for herself in Seoul. Whether it’s through the friends she makes at KISS or the relatives she reconnects with, the show truly shines when Kitty steps outside her comfort zone in Portland and explores her heritage.

Henry Cavill has said he won’t be pursuing the role of James Bond, mainly because he feels he’s too old to start the franchise now at 42. He clarified to Heat Magazine that he wasn’t offered and rejected the part, but simply that the timing wasn’t right, adding that any actor would want the opportunity.

By the end of Season 4, Homelander has finally achieved the power he always wanted. He’s in charge of Vought, has the President under his influence, and leads a larger group of super-powered individuals who are now operating legally. Meanwhile, The Boys, who used to be his main opponents, are now the ones being pursued.

Okay, so here’s the interesting thing about the Strange New Worlds premiere. A lot of fans were worried about how the show would handle established Star Trek lore, and honestly, it tackled a big one right away – the Gorn. They didn’t just address it, they really dealt with it in a surprisingly dramatic way. But the real emotional gut punch came with Captain Batel. Seeing Pike desperately try to save the woman he loves, culminating in that incredibly moving scene where he recites The Lord’s Prayer… it’s powerful stuff. And it’s a little complicated for Star Trek. You see, creator Gene Roddenberry envisioned a future where religion had faded away, a core tenet of his humanist worldview. However, the universe he built, the stories that followed, haven’t always stuck to that strictly. It’s a fascinating tension, and this episode really brought it to the forefront.

With seventeen players now merged, this is the biggest alliance shift in Survivor history. However, Christian is completely focused on Rick Devens, jokingly calling him “captain” as they share a hammock and reminisce about working together. Devens reveals to Aubry that he was the one who originally hid her Billie Eilish Boomerang Idol. Thanks to Emily, everyone already knew Aubry had an idol, and information spreads rapidly in such a large group. We see a fast-paced sequence of players sharing gossip, including details about both Aubry’s and Ozzy’s idols. Genevieve, however, remains strategic, keeping the fact that she gave Rizo her second BEBI a secret – even from Rizo himself. It’s a clever move.
