Emma Stone is producing the film with her close friend, Jennifer Lawrence, but neither of them will be starring in the main role. Stone explained to W magazine that they wouldn’t be right for the part, saying they don’t measure up. Despite their combined three Oscar wins, neither actress has ever worked with Joan Rivers. Stone jokingly added that if Miss Piggy heard about this, she’d be furious – Miss Piggy would play Miss Piggy, and wouldn’t tolerate the suggestion of anyone else. Stone says Kermit the Frog will be getting an earful about this later that night.

The world of Stranger Things is expanding with new projects like a live-action spin-off, an animated series, and a behind-the-scenes documentary called One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things Season 5, coming to Netflix on January 12, 2026. Despite these additions, many fans are still invested in the original story of Eleven and Vecna (played by Jamie Campbell Bower) and speculate that there might be a hidden ninth episode.

This story has been adapted for television in many countries, including France, Spain, Germany, and Russia. Each version centers around a surgeon from a major city who relocates to a small town and, after becoming afraid of blood, starts working as the local doctor.

Marvel Studios is finishing up work on the new Avengers movie, currently titled ‘Doomsday’. It’s directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, and is expected to hit US theaters later this year. A follow-up film, ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’, is planned for release in 2027.

The new documentary I’m Chevy Chase and You’re Not is getting rave reviews! After premiering on CNN on January 1st and before becoming available on HBO Max on January 31st, it earned a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. However, this score is based on only 10 reviews so far, and could change as more critics weigh in.

The Batman 2, the follow-up to the 2022 hit The Batman, is scheduled to hit US theaters in 2027. Matt Reeves is returning to direct, and Robert Pattinson will again play Batman/Bruce Wayne. Scarlett Johansson will also be appearing in the film, though her role hasn’t been revealed yet.

DC Studios is currently prioritizing The Batman: Part 2, which has slowed progress on The Brave and the Bold. While a Batman reboot is planned for the DCU, it’s still in the scriptwriting phase and doesn’t have a firm release date yet. Fans can also look forward to Dynamic Duo, an animated movie featuring two versions of Batman’s sidekick, coming to theaters on June 30, 2028.

The movie Thunderbolts showed us who will become the new Avengers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, although Bucky mentioned Captain America wasn’t thrilled with the name choice. The film’s ending featured the team observing the Fantastic Four’s spaceship. Considering all this, Bucky is likely to be a key player in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie, and his storyline might even lead to his death.

As a huge DC fan, I’m so excited to hear that James Gunn is already planning the next chapter in the DC Universe! Apparently, ‘Man of Tomorrow,’ the follow-up to the upcoming ‘Superman’ movie from 2025, is slated for release in 2027. Even better, David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult are both set to return as Superman and Lex Luthor, which I think is fantastic casting. I can’t wait to see what Gunn has in store for us!
