The latest issue of *Weekly Shonen Jump* announced that three new chapters of *Black Clover* will appear in *Jump GIGA 2025 Autumn*, set to be released on October 30th, 2025. These chapters will continue the final fight between Asta and his enemies, signaling the approaching conclusion of the series, which began in 2015. A preview promises an exciting return, stating, “Entrusted with his comrades’ feelings, Asta rises again with a roar!!”

Johnson addressed the film’s box office performance on Instagram, acknowledging that movie success is ultimately out of anyone’s control. More importantly, he emphasized that the movie’s results haven’t diminished the personal impact of playing the role of Kerr, which he described as a life-changing experience. He then shared a message stating:

Sometimes, a truly great movie slips under the radar. That’s what’s happening with *Eephus*, a 2025 film that’s getting incredible reviews but hasn’t yet found a wide audience. Despite being a bit sad and slow-paced, it’s surprisingly exciting and memorable. If you love sports movies, comedies, or enjoy discovering new filmmaking talent, you shouldn’t miss *Eephus*.

With the rise of social media platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, voice actors are increasingly expected to have an active online presence when applying for jobs. In a recent interview, voice actor Le was asked about the importance of having a large social media following and how it influences casting choices. Le explained that social media presence is now a significant factor for major projects, but personally, they believe it shouldn’t be so important.

Look, for years, *Cujo* pretty much defined animal horror – a terrifying dog turning bad. But a new film, released this year, is completely subverting that trope, and honestly, it’s brilliant. It’s quietly become a huge talking point, racking up a 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Director Ben Leonberg takes the idea of a canine lead and flips it – instead of a monster, this dog is a hero. It’s a really interesting shift, and it feels like a sign of how much the horror genre has matured, becoming more about understanding and even *feeling* for its creatures.

If you missed Season 13’s Rachel Reilly’s return to *Big Brother* on CBS or Paramount+, you might have been surprised to see her eliminated unexpectedly. She failed a sudden “Hamster Wheel” challenge, and instead of a typical eviction, she was simply removed from the game. This caused a strong reaction from fans, but it seems the show’s producers were even more concerned about the situation.

I was so excited to see a post from @Gotham2739! They randomly ran into Andy Muschietti at a bar over the weekend and actually got to ask him about ‘The Brave and the Bold’! It wasn’t a long conversation, but @Gotham2739 confirmed that Muschietti is still set to direct the movie that’s going to bring Batman into James Gunn’s DC Universe. That’s awesome news for fans like me who’ve been waiting for updates!

Zombies first appeared in movies in 1932, but they didn’t become truly popular until George A. Romero’s *Night of the Living Dead*. Since then, the zombie genre has exploded with all sorts of different takes – from genuinely scary horror to surprisingly funny comedies, and even stories that include romance, science fiction, musicals, and cartoons. We’re still captivated by these undead creatures, and filmmakers keep reimagining them to reflect what scares us now. Even after decades, zombies continue to entertain, frighten, and sometimes make us laugh.

This new strategy also shifts the feel of the first live-action Batman movie. Instead of having to introduce Batman and his methods to the world all at once, James Gunn can build on what’s already been established. Shows like *Creature Commandos* and *Peacemaker*, along with other projects in the works, have already created a foundation of characters for Batman’s universe – some we’ve seen on screen, and others still being developed.

You can now watch the critically acclaimed 2016 thriller *Green Room* for free on Tubi, starting October 1st. The film received overwhelmingly positive reviews, earning a 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and continues to impress viewers. Many consider director Jeremy Saulnier a master of combining horror and action, and *Green Room* is a prime example – a truly intense and gripping movie that delivers on its exciting premise with strong characters and inspired filmmaking.
