James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DCU currently includes three released or upcoming shows. Creature Commandos debuted in December 2024, and Peacemaker Season 2 followed in 2025. Lanterns is scheduled to premiere later in 2024, and several other shows have been announced, though their release dates are still to be determined.
Fans of Grey’s Anatomy may be surprised to learn some news about Owen Hunt and Teddy Altman. Kevin McKidd first joined the show as Owen in Season 5 and has been a regular for the past 18 seasons. Kim Raver, who plays Teddy, joined the following season and has been closely connected to Owen’s storyline ever since.
Writer Colbert and producer Jackson recently announced their new sequel, The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past, which is now in development. The film will fill in gaps in the story from J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring, specifically the events between the scenes ‘Three Is Company’ and ‘Fog on the Barrow-Downs’ – moments that weren’t included in Jackson’s original movie adaptation. The title references the second chapter of Tolkien’s first Lord of the Rings book.
When the TV show S.H.I.E.L.D. debuted on ABC in 2013, its tagline, “It’s All Connected,” suggested it shared a universe with the Marvel movies. However, for years, the movies never referenced anything that happened on the show—it was a one-way connection. This changed in 2023 when the Daredevil: Born Again series was significantly reworked, officially making the events of the Defenders Saga part of the official Marvel Cinematic Universe timeline.
Later in his career, Leonardo DiCaprio has frequently collaborated with director Martin Scorsese. They’ve worked together on six films, with another currently in production, making them one of the most famous actor-director partnerships in recent film history. One of their most notable projects is the 2006 crime thriller The Departed, which is a remake of the highly-regarded Hong Kong film Infernal Affairs.
That version of entertainment still exists, but it’s no longer the default.
The sci-fi thriller Mercy, starring Rebecca Ferguson and Chris Pratt, is a hit on Prime Video! Just a few days after its release, the movie has become the most-watched title globally, even surpassing the new spy thriller Agent Zeta. In the US, Mercy is currently number one, followed by Ryan Coogler’s Sinners and the documentary Melania, directed by Brett Ratner, in third place.
Like many shows from Taylor Sheridan, The Madison hasn’t been a hit with critics. It currently has a 59% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, indicating it has quite a few problems. However, audiences seem to enjoy it, with a 75% score on the Popcornmeter and an 8/10 rating on IMDb. Despite the positive fan response, the show isn’t always easy to watch, as it deals with difficult themes of grief and requires some emotional stamina. One particular character’s storyline also adds to the challenge.
The story kicks off with a fun premise by Mark Waid and Jorge Jiménez: a world where DC and Marvel heroes share the same universe. We find Peter Parker working as a photographer and teaming up with Clark Kent on an assignment. Their investigation quickly turns into a classic hero pairing when they realize Brainiac and Doctor Octopus are working together.
While at MegaCon in Orlando, actor Charles Murphy, known for his role in ‘Evil,’ shared that he’d love to reprise his part as Luke Cage.
