I just read an interesting interview with Mark Ruffalo in Empire Magazine. He confirmed he won’t be in the upcoming Doomsday film, but he’s still feeling good about his future with Marvel. He actually said that as long as they have great ideas for the Hulk, he’s in! He even joked that The Avengers helped him land a role in Crime 101! It got me thinking though – with him not in Doomsday, could this mean the Hulk is in real trouble in Spider-Man: Brand New Day this summer? It definitely makes you wonder what’s going on!

Robert Pattinson first gained international fame through the Twilight franchise. Based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer, Twilight tells the story of a complicated love between vampire Edward Cullen, played by Pattinson, and human teenager Bella Swan, played by Kristen Stewart. The Twilight Saga quickly became a major part of pop culture, starting with the very first film.

Andrew Lincoln, best known for playing Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead and its spin-off The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live (2024), is starring in and executive producing a new six-part series called Coldwater.

Valentino Garavani, the renowned designer, died at his home in Rome, Italy, on January 19th. His foundation shared that he was with family when he passed away.

American culture feels very divided right now, stuck between conservative viewpoints and progressive ideals. You see this online, with people like Ben Shapiro criticizing liberal content and commentators reacting strongly to current events. However, the “Heated Rivalry” reaction videos show a different side – genuine joy and excitement when two gay athletes share a moment. Because so much of what we watch is experienced alone through personalized feeds, these reaction videos feel like a digital version of sharing experiences with others. They cover everything from first-time listens to classic songs to reactions to sports highlights and shocking reveals, offering a sense of connection. While many things get this treatment, the “Heated Rivalry” videos have sparked an unusually large number of reactions, suggesting they’ve really resonated with people.

If you were a kid in the 1980s, you probably remember Star Search, the talent show that launched the careers of many famous people, including Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Drew Carey. Now, Netflix is bringing back the show for a new audience, and we’re sure to see some new stars emerge. Anthony Anderson is the new host, taking over from Ed McMahon, and the judges this time around are Jelly Roll, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Chrissy Teigen.

Wow, Season 2 of Landman just wrapped up, and everyone’s talking about it! I’m already deep in online discussions because so many questions are left hanging, and honestly, I’m a little anxious about where things are going with the characters in Season 3. On top of that, there was some buzz going around that Billy Bob Thornton might be leaving the show, which would be a huge loss. But he’s come out and completely denied those rumors, and he didn’t hold back at all! It’s good to hear him set the record straight.

A new rumor suggests that actress Isabella Ferreira, who appears in the upcoming Spider-Man 4, won’t be immediately identified by her true character name. The movie is reportedly designed to initially mislead audiences into thinking she’s playing a minor character before revealing she’s actually Jean. This twist is reminiscent of the surprise reveal in Spider-Man: Homecoming, where Zendaya’s character was ultimately confirmed to be Michelle Jones (MJ), not Mary Jane, creating a similar sense of unexpected identity.

On the January 17th episode of Saturday Night Live, a sketch poked fun at the popular Netflix series Stranger Things, particularly its controversial ending.

The new series, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, returns the famous school to its original location in San Francisco, Earth. This is the first class of cadets to train on Earth in over a century, following the devastating event known as The Burn, which changed the United Federation of Planets. San Francisco holds a special place in Star Trek lore, famously being linked to the story of the humpback whales.
