If you’re familiar with Greek myths or the game Hades 2, you likely know the story of Odysseus, the brilliant strategist from the Trojan War whose journey home took an incredibly long time. Simply creating the Trojan Horse wasn’t enough – he also faced sea monsters, nymphs, a cyclops (who appears in the trailer!), and other dangerous creatures. The first trailer for Nolan’s film focuses heavily on Matt Damon, who plays Odysseus, but we also see quick shots of Tom Holland as his son, Telemachus, and Anne Hathaway as his worried wife, Penelope. The relationship between Odysseus and Penelope – a husband struggling to return from war and a wife desperately wanting him home – feels perfectly suited to a Nolan film. The trailer ends with Penelope’s plea for him to come back, and his somber reply, “What if I can’t?”, captures the intense drama typical of Nolan’s leading men. The Odyssey is scheduled for release in mid-July 2026, so you have plenty of time to familiarize yourself with the characters and their stories.

I have to admit, calling Marty a ‘con artist’ feels off. He’s genuinely incredible at table tennis – so competitive and captivating to watch! He throws himself into every shot, twisting and turning in ways that are just amazing, and you really believe him when he predicts table tennis will become huge. But then there’s this other side to him… that same confidence fuels a frustrating tendency to bend the truth, and he’s a terrible loser, always boasting. It’s hard to figure out if it’s all part of the act, or if he’s genuinely flawed. When Rachel shows up pregnant, he immediately denies it’s his child, and it’s heartbreaking. Is he afraid of responsibility, or is he just thoughtless and unkind? If an older man, especially a slick politician, acted like this, I’d find him completely unbearable. But this is Timothée Chalamet, and somehow, he makes it work. He’s utterly charming, and honestly, this is his best performance yet. He brings this complex, frustrating, and oddly lovable character to life.

The upcoming movie, Avengers: Doomsday, is now confirmed for release in Japan on December 18, 2026 – the same day it comes out in the US.

HIM, a new horror film from Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions, follows promising quarterback Cameron Cade (Tyriq Withers) as he gets the chance to train with his hero, Isaiah White (Marlon Wayans).

Scars of Dracula, the fifth Hammer horror film featuring Christopher Lee as the Count, sees the vampire return from the dead. Dennis Waterman, later known for his role in Minder, plays a man who travels to Dracula’s castle with his fiancée to find his missing brother – a risky decision! In this film, Lee gets more opportunities to speak as the Count, and even performs a classic vampire move – climbing the castle walls like in Bram Stoker’s original novel.

Yang’s mid-season departure really does feel like the end of a special era at SNL. Over the past few seasons, he turned into one of the show’s most reliable scene-stealers — whether he was playing a chaotic pop culture gremlin, grounding a sketch with deadpan confidence, or making “Weekend Update” feel even more unhinged in the best way. So of course his past and present castmates didn’t let him slip out quietly. One of the sweetest tributes came from Chloe Fineman, who shared a backstage Instagram photo of herself hugging the “Iceberg that sank the Titanic” sketch performer. In the caption (which you can read for yourself below), she tagged the Jentry Chau vs. The Underworld voice star and said she was “so endlessly proud” of him, calling it a “BRAVO,” while also noting the pics were from their first episode together.
