Though both Hollow Earth and Axis Mundi feature in the Monsterverse, Tory Tunnell, an executive producer on Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, clarified to The Direct that they are distinct ideas. He explained that Axis Mundi operates with its own specific set of rules, while Hollow Earth explores the concept of hidden spaces within the Earth itself.
Despite some good acting from Zahn, the movie is ultimately too mild to make a strong impact. A major issue is Audrey Zahn’s debut performance, which feels stiff and unnatural compared to her father’s experience. Because the story relies heavily on the painful connection between father and daughter, these scenes often fall flat. She struggles to portray a character who is supposed to be distant from her father, and their tense moments don’t feel believable – she often seems simply indifferent.
Brad Pitt’s film, World War Z, is currently very popular on Pluto TV. As of March 22, 2026, it’s ranked number six in the U.S., according to FlixPatrol, and has become more popular than movies like Mean Girls, Scream, Scream 2, and even Titanic.
As a lifelong cinema fan, I’ve been following the developments at Paramount and now SkyDance closely. Even before the merger was complete, there were whispers about the future of Star Trek, though many rumors never came to fruition. CEO David Ellison kept emphasizing how important Star Trek was to the company, both for TV and big-screen movies. But then, things shifted. He and his partners made a serious play to acquire Warner Bros. – imagine getting access to all those franchises! When it was just Paramount, Star Trek was a cornerstone of their film slate. Now, with Warner Bros. bringing Batman, Lord of the Rings, Godzilla, Harry Potter, and so much more to the table, Roddenberry’s universe doesn’t seem like SkyDance’s surest path to box office success anymore. Considering the history of Star Trek films and how much the movie world is changing, I honestly wonder if SkyDance will even bother making another Star Trek movie again.
MrBeast has said he’d like to help fund a live-action Naruto series. He posted on X (formerly Twitter) asking for one to be made, offering his financial support. This isn’t a new interest for him – he’s worked with VIZ Media before on Naruto-related merchandise.
1991 was a big year for Star Trek. It celebrated its 25th anniversary with the release of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, which was the last movie featuring the original cast. They even left their handprints in cement at TCL Chinese Theaters in Hollywood! At the same time, Star Trek: The Next Generation was incredibly popular, finishing its fourth season and starting its fifth.
Marvel Studios hasn’t confirmed rumors of a fight between Yelena Belova and Mystique in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie. The speculation started on X (formerly Twitter) when a user wondered if the two characters would face off, but there’s no official evidence to support this claim.
It’s still early days, but the new season of The Comeback, which premiered after a 12-year wait, seems to be tackling relevant issues in the entertainment world, like anxieties about AI and the power of streaming services. The season opens in 2023 with Val preparing to play Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway, and as usual, she’s being followed by cameras. Ella Stiller’s character, Patience, is documenting everything for social media, while Jane is reluctantly filming as a favor to Val – a complicated one, stemming from a $25,000 gift Val gave her years ago. Their dynamic is instantly familiar and enjoyable. However, Jane’s comment that this all feels like a repeat of the previous documentary raises a slight concern. The Comeback has always been known for being innovative, so the season needs to offer something new to stay engaging.
Greg is completely new to this experience, and the show keeps reminding us of that. He’s acting like a typical freshman – feeling homesick, trying to make friends, and stumbling along the way. Luckily, Steve Carell is so likable that his character’s naiveté remains endearing.
