A recent report from Bloomberg indicates Warner Bros. Discovery is likely to pass on a potential deal with Paramount, citing concerns about financing and the conditions of the offer. Sources close to the situation told Bloomberg that the company’s board reviewed the Paramount proposal but currently favors an offer from Netflix.
The movie The Hustle, starring Anne Hathaway, is proving popular on Netflix. For the week of December 8th to 14th, 2025, it ranked as the seventh most-watched movie globally on the streaming service.
Just like the Marvel movies, the DC Universe started by introducing its main heroes in individual films, including the 2017 Wonder Woman movie starring Gal Gadot. Jan Fuchs, a writer who recently worked on IT: Welcome to Derry, co-wrote Wonder Woman with Zack Snyder and Allan Heinberg. He recently shared that the film originally planned to introduce Kalibak, the son of the villain Darkseid, though the main antagonist ultimately became Ares, played by David Thewlis.
Over the past few years, action movies have become much more graphic, as both viewers and filmmakers have become more comfortable with on-screen violence. These films often aim for a realistic portrayal of conflict. However, the high level of violence usually earns them an R-rating, which means younger fans of the genre can’t see them. The question of whether to reduce the intensity is a larger discussion for another time. Here are some movies where characters frequently find themselves in dire situations – if they survive, that is.
Most directors experience both successes and failures, but Rob Reiner’s career has been an extreme rollercoaster. He effortlessly delivered smart, popular films at the height of his career, then later made movies that seemed surprisingly misjudged. While you might call him a versatile director, it doesn’t quite capture how he created films as assured as When Harry Met Sally, as hilariously chaotic as This Is Spinal Tap, or as uniquely balanced in tone as The Princess Bride. Because of these huge swings, it’s hard to neatly categorize his work.
Neon describes the movie:
Although Superman earned over $600 million globally after its summer release, its biggest achievement was establishing a strong foundation for the new DC Universe. More notably, a comparison of DC’s success with Marvel’s upcoming 2025 movie lineup revealed a significant difference. Despite both The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Captain America: Brave New World earning hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office, they weren’t among the top 10 most anticipated movies, highlighting a potential gap in audience excitement for those particular Marvel releases.
Throughout the first season of The Pitt, Dr. Robby, the day shift leader in the Emergency Department, was haunted by his past, particularly the anniversary of his mentor, Dr. Montgomery Adamson’s, death. He consistently prioritized the well-being of others, often to the detriment of his own mental health, constantly pushing himself to the limit.
Honestly, if you’re looking for Prime Video’s answer to Game of Thrones, you have to look to science fiction. They picked up this really interesting political drama set way in the future – hundreds of years from now, in space, no less! What’s cool is it had actually been canceled before, but George R.R. Martin himself stepped in and convinced them to give it another shot. It’s a fascinating story, and I’m really excited to see where it goes.
Yoru’s recent power increase is so significant that even Pochita couldn’t win against her. The only way for Chainsaw Man to defeat the War Devil is for Denji and Pochita to fully merge, creating a new form called “Denji Man.” Chapter 223 of Chainsaw Man showcases this transformation for the first time, marking a small advancement in the story but a massive increase in the overall power level.
