After the controversial ending of Game of Thrones, HBO began developing several potential spinoff shows. But one by one, those projects were cancelled, leaving only House of the Dragon. Now, with House of the Dragon preparing for its third season and a new spinoff, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, set to premiere next year, HBO seems ready to fully reinvest in the world of Westeros – both its past and its future. As author George R.R. Martin explained:

So, how did we end up with confusing updates about Chase Stokes and Kelsea Ballerini’s relationship? They began dating in January 2023, shortly after Ballerini’s split from Morgan Evans and while Stokes was still working on a TV show with his former partner, Madelyn Cline. They announced their breakup in September, with sources telling People magazine they’d both tried hard to make the relationship work but ultimately couldn’t. However, just this month, People reported seeing them holding hands in Croatia. This seems to contradict Stokes’ apparent dislike of media attention and speculation.

A fan recently shared a photo on X (formerly Twitter) from inside the offices of AGBO, the production company run by the Russo Brothers, sparking a theory. The picture shows three costumes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe displayed on mannequins, and the specific characters chosen – and how they were arranged – has led people to speculate about future storylines.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles began as a comic book created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. The series centers around four turtle brothers – Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo – who defend New York City from criminals and their main enemy, the Shredder.

The most suspicious stranger in the inn was a hooded man, quietly smoking a pipe in the shadows. Sam realized he’d been observing them ever since they arrived. Barliman Butterbur, the innkeeper, explained that the man was a Ranger – a mysterious and potentially dangerous wanderer of the wilderness. No one knew his real name, but locals called him Strider. Although Aragorn, as Strider was known, meant Frodo no harm, the Hobbits didn’t know that, and this situation allowed him an opportunity to demonstrate his bravery – a quality that would later prove essential as a member of the Fellowship.

Matt LeBlanc received a People’s Choice Award for his work on the first season of Joey, which debuted in 2004. He famously said in his acceptance speech that the show would continue as long as fans wanted it to, but unfortunately, that wasn’t the case. The series, also featuring Jennifer Coolidge, Andrea Anders, Paulo Costanzo, Drea de Matteo, and Miguel A. Núñez Jr., was canceled after only two seasons. This was ironic, considering the show began with Joey moving to Los Angeles only to discover his own sitcom had been canceled. The final eight episodes of Joey weren’t broadcast on U.S. television, and after the first season didn’t sell well on DVD, American fans couldn’t even purchase the second season. It took twenty years for fans in the U.S. to finally see how the show ended. As the theme song suggests, life didn’t go as planned, but ultimately, everything worked out.

Billy Bob Thornton’s character, Tommy Norris—a tough, resourceful oil industry problem-solver—is the standout addition to Season 2 of Landman, where he’ll be running M-Tex Oil. Although the show already featured well-known actors like Ali Larter, Jon Hamm, and Demi Moore, Thornton’s performance is a key element that could help Landman fill the void left by Yellowstone.

Deadline reports that Play Dirty has been viewed 57 million times globally on Prime Video in just 28 days. This makes it one of the top 10 most popular movies ever streamed on Amazon MGM Studios.

George R.R. Martin shared at the 2025 Iceland Noir Festival, according to Los Siete Reinos, that alongside the previously announced prequel spin-offs, he’s also working on one or two sequel series. He didn’t offer any details about who the potential Game of Thrones sequels might focus on.

As a huge Colleen Hoover fan, I’ve been following the drama around the It Ends With Us movie adaptation closely. It all started when Blake Lively sued Wayfarer Studios, and then Justin Baldoni countersued, claiming defamation. It’s been non-stop headlines ever since! Colleen recently opened up about everything in an interview with Elle, and she finally talked about how the controversy has become completely tied to the movie. She shared what’s been going on from her perspective, and honestly, it’s been tough to watch it all unfold.
