One thing about the X-Men announcement seemed odd to me. Popular characters from the previous X-Men movies, like Jean Grey, Storm, and Rogue, weren’t included. I initially assumed they were being kept secret for the plot of Avengers: Doomsday. But a recent update suggests there might be a more concerning reason for their absence.
After just three seasons, the show Suburgatory was canceled and disappeared from streaming platforms, causing it to fade from public memory surprisingly fast. Luckily, Tubi and The Roku Channel, along with the Howdy spinoff, have now added all three seasons. This revival gave creators and cast members a chance to revisit the show, focusing on a particularly memorable episode – the lavish and ambitious holiday episode, “Krampus,” from season two.
According to People Magazine, Chevy Chase recently performed at the Altria Theater and discussed his career. When asked if there was a movie he’d like to revisit with a sequel, he brought up a John Landis film about silent movie stars encountering bandits in Mexico. Chase fondly remembered his co-stars and joked that they’re all working on a crime comedy – except for him.
We are talking about , a series that looks to uncover the secrets and mysteries of artifacts that have been hidden away in museums, laboratories and storage rooms around the world. The series aired its first episode in 2021, with subsequent seasons arriving in 2023 and July 2025. However, at the time, they made very little impact on the streamer’s chart, which does suggest that all the attention being placed on right now has led to a bit of serendipitous viewing of the forgotten and ignored show. The full synopsis of the series reads:
The creators of Stranger Things, Matt and Ross Duffer, have shared whether the characters Joyce and Hopper ever knew that Vecna – also known as Henry Creel – was a classmate of theirs. The show’s recent finale, which lasted over two hours, saw Henry/Vecna ultimately defeated when Joyce delivered the final blow.
Some movies seem simple initially, but reveal deeper meanings and connections if you pay close attention or watch them again. These films are smart without sacrificing enjoyment, and often surprise viewers with their brilliance after the first viewing.
There’s been a lot of discussion about how the X-Men characters from the Fox films – including actors Alan Cumming and Kelsey Grammer – will be featured in the movie coming out in December 2026. Some initially thought they might just have brief appearances, but the trailer indicates they’ll have a much more significant role.
Director Ryan Coogler, age 39, shared that when planning his 2018 Marvel film, he originally suggested Spider-Man’s villain be the main opponent for Chadwick Boseman’s Black Panther, in addition to Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger and Andy Serkis as Ulysses Klaue.
This scene quickly became a standout moment in the film – a surprisingly bizarre turn that wasn’t meant to be taken seriously. Milton, a wealthy and unpleasant character who serves as the closest thing to a villain, showed no signs of typical vampire weaknesses like sunlight or a need for blood, and was happily married to his famous wife (played by Gwyneth Paltrow). However, the actor playing him, O’Leary, felt intensely hostile towards the character. He even suggested adding prosthetic fangs and imagined attacking Milton violently. The director, Safdie, decided against making the character a literal vampire, a choice most people (except O’Leary) probably agreed with. The scene remains wonderfully strange, a result of casting performers who bring their own unique personalities to the film.
The movie Den of Thieves, written, produced, and directed by Christian Gudegast, is now available for Peacock subscribers.
