I was hooked from the first episode! Seeing Maia and Tallulah waiting for Tenants of the Trees felt so… LA. And that Wi Spa shirt Tallulah wore? It was a sneaky little detail that made me realize she was going to be trouble. The finale was wild – Charlie flying all that Din Tai Fung to his ex felt like a surprisingly sweet, if a little basic, gesture. Luckily, the show got renewed for a second season, and I’m already excited to see where they take us – and which iconic LA (and now NY!) spots they feature next.

Prime Video has shared the first images from the upcoming series, featuring Damian Lillard kneeling in a field and a sneak peek at Aldis Hodge as Alex Cross. You can see the photos below.

Finn Wolfhard, who plays Mike, and Natalia Dyer, who plays Nancy, actually asked the creators of Stranger Things, the Duffer Brothers, for more opportunities to act together. According to People magazine, Wolfhard shared during a panel discussion at The Paley Museum in New York City that he and Dyer specifically requested more scenes together in the show’s final season.

KPop Demon Hunters centers around three K-pop stars who secretly fight demons, and their friendship is strained when one of them reveals she’s half-demon. The show has received excellent reviews, broken streaming records, performed well in theaters for two weeks, and its music has become incredibly popular, topping the charts.

I just got a first look at some images from the new movie, This Is Not a Test, and they’re definitely grabbing my attention. The first one shows Sloane, played by Olivia Holt, completely covered in blood – talk about a dramatic start! The second image features Sloane alongside Moore’s character and a bunch of their classmates, and everyone looks absolutely terrified. It’s setting up a really intense vibe, and I’m intrigued to see what’s going on.

Daniel Craig often expressed his reluctance to continue playing James Bond, but he ultimately stayed on to give fans the conclusion they wanted. This allowed his version of the character to have a more complete story and a fitting end. The way No Time to Die ended was particularly notable, as it made Craig’s Bond the first to actually die, bringing a definitive close to his time as 007. However, it’s not just the ending that should influence the next actor to take on the role; another aspect of the film could significantly impact their portrayal of the iconic spy.

The new hockey documentary series is surprisingly similar to the 1986 musical Chess, which features songs by ABBA and lyrics by Tim Rice – currently revived on Broadway. Like Heated Rivalry isn’t really about hockey, Chess isn’t really about chess. Both use the sport as a backdrop to explore deeper themes. Chess uses chess as a metaphor for love, masculinity, and the Cold War, while Heated Rivalry uses hockey to amp up the already intense sexual tension and rivalry. Both shows pit male characters against each other, burdened by national expectations and struggling with personal relationships. The East versus West dynamic fuels the competition in both stories. Interestingly, the social media team for the Broadway production of Chess is actively highlighting these parallels.

The Duffer brothers, Matt and Ross, have revealed how long the final four episodes of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things will be.

Mark Consuelos recently spoke with Entertainment Weekly alongside his wife, Kelly Ripa, who co-hosts Live With Kelly & Mark with him. They discussed the upcoming Scream 7 movie, but Consuelos’s role is being kept secret – even from Ripa! She playfully suggested during the interview that he might be the killer, because he’s refusing to reveal any details.
