The popular Netflix show Wednesday, which has been a huge success for the streaming service, has always been set in the United States, mainly in the town of Jericho, Vermont, home to Nevermore Academy. The first season ended with a hint that the next season will expand beyond the school, as Wednesday Addams, played by Jenna Ortega, hits the road with her Uncle Fester (Fred Armisen) to find Enid Sinclair (Emma Myers). The season also revealed that Ophelia Frump is still alive, but is being held prisoner in the basement of her grandmother, Hester Frump’s (Joanna Lumley), house.

Netflix built a large international audience over several years, solidifying its position as a major player in the social media era. Throughout its history, Netflix has adapted to many changes in the entertainment industry. Early hits like the political drama House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black were key to establishing the platform’s popularity as it expanded.

The newest trailer for Doomsday was shown last week at CinemaCon, but only to people attending the event. During the presentation, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige, directors Joe and Anthony Russo, and actor Robert Downey Jr. shared details about the film, including that it will continue the story immediately after the events of Avengers: Endgame.

Tom Cruise is known for his thrilling action roles in films like the Mission: Impossible series, Jack Reacher, and Edge of Tomorrow, which have become modern classics. While action remains his signature style even today, many fans fondly remember his earlier, more diverse work. Whether playing the bad guy or a comedic character, these films showcase the full range of Tom Cruise’s talent.

Promotion for the film began in September 2025 with the release of the first trailer, giving fans glimpses of the main characters and the rest of the cast. The movie promises non-stop action, from traditional Star Wars spaceship fights to a new gladiator match with Rota the Hutt, despite being shorter than other films in the series. After a week of exciting previews, viewers now have a detailed look at how the twelfth Star Wars movie will start.

I recently checked out this new series, and it’s really stuck with me. It’s based on a short story, and follows Lindy and Les Littlejohn, a married couple who are drifting apart. Lindy’s a professor and a celebrated writer – she’s even won a Pulitzer! – and Les is a scientist working on some wild tech that can shrink things. But the show really digs into how their relationship starts to fall apart because, despite both being successful, they don’t actually support each other’s ambitions. It’s a fascinating look at a power imbalance in a marriage.

To mark 4/20, Searchlight Pictures has dropped the official trailer for Super Troopers 3.

Expect plenty of raunchy comedy leading up to the big day! You can watch the trailer below.

People in the UK often debate which show is better, Sherlock or Luther, and the discussion is likely to continue for a while. However, some argue that Luther is the stronger crime drama. While Sherlock showcases the BBC’s high production values, Luther simply tells a more gripping story.

While The Beekeeper is enjoyable, many other action movies featuring a single hero are even more compelling, ranging from classics to lesser-known, fast-paced films. This trend started with movies like Death Wish in the 1970s, shifting away from slower, investigation-focused films like Dirty Harry towards stories of intense revenge. These newer action films don’t shy away from violence, often portraying heroes who are nearly indestructible and can withstand incredible punishment.
