This initially suggests the introduction of Superman’s famous enemy, Brainiac. While Brainiac is rumored to be the villain in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow movie – which is slated for release a year after Supergirl – the Supergirl trailer doesn’t actually hint at Brainiac’s appearance. Instead, it focuses on a tragic event for Kryptonians, taken from the original DC Comics, and a significant scene from the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic book by Tom King, Bilquis Evely, and Matheus Lopes.

As the film Tommy celebrates its fiftieth anniversary, it’s starting to seem less like a quirky classic and more like an early example of how popular franchises develop today.

The movie mainly focuses on Ella, a 34-year-old lieutenant governor played by Emma Mackey, but gets bogged down in a lengthy side story about her brother, Casey (Spike Fearn). Casey is a brilliant MIT graduate who has been a recluse for over a year after his girlfriend, Susan, didn’t immediately agree to become exclusive with him – so he blocked her. He essentially ghosted her. When Ella points this out, Casey decides to win Susan back, embarking on a long walk across town to prove he’s not afraid to leave the house. Amazingly, Susan (played by Ayo Edebiri in a brief scene) not only lets this disheveled, intense man into her apartment after a year of no contact, but tries to have a normal conversation with him as if nothing happened. Just when it felt like the situation might turn dangerous, Casey asks Susan to be his girlfriend again, and she… says yes! (Spoiler alert!)

Okay, so The Flip Off really took off when it first aired in early 2025, and everyone’s been dying to know what’s happening with Season 2. They started filming way back in September, and the cast – Tarek and Heather Rae El Moussa, plus Christina Haack – have been hinting at a possible new partner for Christina on the show. But honestly, Tarek’s been pretty candid on Instagram about how challenging it can be working with both Christina and Heather. Let’s just say things aren’t always smooth sailing!

The recent release of Gladiator II highlights a growing trend in Hollywood. While the sequel earned over $460 million, Russell Crowe, who starred in the original Gladiator, has voiced a common concern: it doesn’t capture the same magic or emotional depth as the first film, aside from Denzel Washington’s performance. Despite similar box office numbers, Gladiator II exemplifies a wider issue of remakes and reboots that often lack the heart and quality of the originals.

Last night’s Game Awards featured several exciting reveals, including the first trailer for the upcoming Street Fighter movie. Actor Kravitz also discussed his role as the villain, Bawma, in the much-awaited James Bond: First Light game, which you can now pre-order. Kravitz shared these details in a post on X.

HBO recently released a preview of its shows planned for 2026, including a first look at footage from the upcoming superhero drama, Lanterns. You can watch the preview here:

Over time, everyone starts to wonder about each other’s love lives. During a trip to the aquarium with Hayden and his kids (who we don’t see, likely to save money for things like body oil!), Hayden asks Shane about a past relationship and tries to fix him up with a friend of his wife. Even Shane’s parents attempt to set him up – with a Swedish princess, no less, a rare distraction from discussing his sponsorships. Ilya also faces questions from Svetlana about who he’s been texting – a mysterious “Jane” – and whether he’s dating. Despite all the matchmaking attempts, neither Ilya nor Shane seems interested in anyone other than each other.

I was just thinking about this funny meme while watching the latest episode of “Pluribus.” It ends with Carol finally giving in – after a long fight – with the Others. They’ve been avoiding her ever since that grenade went off and she kept pushing Zosia for answers about reversing the ‘joining’ process. Honestly, throughout the show, we’ve seen Carol really stand against the Others, trying to protect humanity – and especially her partner, Helen, since Helen’s mind is now part of the collective, and her body… well, it’s buried in the backyard. It hasn’t been easy for her. She’s pretty much refused all the easy comforts Diabaté accepted, and she’s even managed to push away the other people on Earth who didn’t get infected by the virus. It’s all taking a huge toll on her, that’s for sure.

The story quickly fills us in on the past through a combination of narration and dialogue. We learn details from a voiceover by Julian Simons (Matthew Maher), who wrote a magazine article about Tiff and her fellow supermodels—whom he called the Glamazons—and from a conversation between Tiff and Madison Fortune. Apparently, they were close friends and rivals back in 2000 when they appeared on the cover of Dress Up magazine. Their relationship, and Tiff’s career, took a turn when Tiff lost half her vision and her confidence in an unsolved attack, leaving us to wonder what could have been.
