People who have followed the Marvel Cinematic Universe from the beginning feel a strong connection to its characters, particularly the first Avengers team. They’ll be excited to hear what Jennifer Lawrence shared while promoting her new film, Die My Love, alongside Robert Pattinson for MUBI. During a conversation with Pattinson, she revealed:
I was so excited when Daredevil: Born Again finally hit Disney+ in March 2025! It’s basically a continuation of the old Netflix series, and it’s amazing to see Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio back as Daredevil and Kingpin. The best part? We’re already getting a second season next year, and they’ve even given the green light for a third! I can’t wait!
In The Secret Agent, Moura delivers a compelling performance in his first Portuguese role in years, bringing a classic, weathered quality to the character of Armando. He fully embodies the spirit of his era, feeling almost like a faded, vintage photograph. The film itself has a warm, nostalgic look, a style that becomes clearer as the story unfolds and jumps to the present day, where researchers are examining old archives. We learn that Armando isn’t just a man who crossed the wrong person – he’s a forgotten figure, and the film offers us a deeper look into his life than even those who knew him. Interestingly, Armando shares similarities with Leonardo DiCaprio’s character in One Battle After Another – both are fathers forced into hiding after opposing power, finding refuge among outsiders, and simply wanting to reconnect with their sons. Armando’s son, Fernando, is a playful boy fascinated by sharks, a fascination sparked by the movie Jaws.
The latest episode included a short scene after the credits that gave fans their first glimpse of how the story will end. While some of the footage in this new preview has been seen before, this is the first time it’s been officially released online, and it also reveals when we can expect the full experience to be available.
In 2024, Wattpad launched its first self-funded movie, Boot Camp, directed by the same creator as many of their popular stories. The film featured rising stars Drew Ray Tanner and Rachel Boudwin, telling the story of a teen who tries to change her life at a wellness retreat. While Wattpad’s most famous project is the After series, those films were made by another company. Based on a story originally shared on Wattpad by Anna Todd, the After movies earned $168 million in theaters from 2019 to 2023. Now, Wattpad is focusing on creating its own successful projects from within the platform.
I was really fascinated to read a new report from My Time to Shine – they’re usually spot-on with this stuff! Apparently, Sony’s Tom Rothman was a big fan of Jon Watts, the director who brought us the last three Spider-Man movies with Marvel, and initially wanted him back for the next one. But when it became clear Watts wasn’t going to return, Rothman already had another director in mind.
Netflix shared the titles for the upcoming episodes of One Piece Season 2 on X and other social media. One title specifically excited fans who know the series’ backstory. Here’s a closer look:

The customs agent they’re looking into, Antony Snootley (played by John Leguizamo), appears only slightly surprised to see a rabbit and a fox together. He doesn’t seem shocked, even though it’s an unusual pairing. Perhaps he’s convinced because their ‘child,’ Nick’s old friend Finnick the fennec fox, genuinely looks like he could be a mix of fox and rabbit. Or maybe he simply recognizes the main point of Zootopia 2: despite any talk about celebrating differences, the movie is really about the romantic connection between the rabbit and the fox.
Over its five seasons, Stranger Things has launched the careers of many of its young actors. Stars like Finn Wolfhard have gone on to appear in big movies like the recent IT and Ghostbusters films, while Millie Bobby Brown has become a lead in projects like Netflix’s Enola Holmes series and the Monsterverse films. Even David Harbour has moved into leading roles after previously being known for supporting characters. For many of these actors, Stranger Things was just the beginning of their success.
