Despite starting with promise, this trilogy, even after nearly ten years, demonstrates how a strong initial concept often fails to translate beyond a single film. Intended to recapture the spirit of the original *Halloween*, it instead became as convoluted as its predecessors, but far less compelling. Ultimately, what was hoped to be a triumphant revival has become a major letdown for fans of horror and slasher films alike.

Season 3 of *One-Punch Man* will start streaming on October 12, 2025, on several platforms. In North America, you’ll be able to watch it on Hulu and Disney+. Canadian viewers can find it on Disney+. Netflix will stream the new season in Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand, and Crunchyroll will also offer it in Latin America and Oceania.

Natasha Liu Bordizzo, who plays Sabine Wren, recently announced she’s finished filming her parts for the next season of the Star Wars series. She posted a shadowy photo from the set featuring herself and Rosario Dawson, both in their costumes as Sabine and Ahsoka Tano.

Our first look at Liam Hemsworth as Geralt suggests he physically fits the role – he has the size and stern look the character requires. The trailer also shows the return of familiar faces like Yennefer, Ciri, and Jaskier. However, Hemsworth’s Geralt delivers a surprisingly American-sounding and forceful “Let’s fucking go!” which feels out of character. While the show isn’t afraid of strong language, this particular phrasing doesn’t quite fit the tone of *The Witcher*. Without Henry Cavill’s more serious portrayal, this new season appears to be leaning more towards an action movie vibe, like *Den of Thieves*, than the Polish fantasy world it’s based on.

While promoting her new film, *A House of Dynamite*, Rebecca Ferguson shared that she’s already completed filming her scenes for *Dune: Part Three*. She noted that her role is small, as the character isn’t a major presence in the source material. According to Ferguson, director Denis Villeneuve ‘had a little idea’ to include her. She praised the script as ‘phenomenal,’ acknowledging the difficulty of adapting such a complex book into a film. She highlighted Villeneuve’s dedication to staying true to the novel while also making creative choices, stating that everything he touches is exceptional.

Joining the show for its fifth season, which premiered last month, was a new experience for actor Mohammed. He’d only seen the first three seasons of *Ted Lasso* when he auditioned for the part of Zafar Jaffrey. Fortunately, Mohammed was already familiar with the original books by Mick Harren, which helped him quickly learn the story and prepare for filming.

In Season 2, Episode 2 of *Peacemaker*, it was revealed that Ads and Keeya have split up. Ads decided to stay in Evergreen to focus on her security business and the 11th Street Kids, which led to the breakup. Keeya expressed that she was frustrated with Ads constantly altering their relationship to suit her own needs. However, a recently released image suggests they will meet again before the season ends to talk things through.

Timothée Chalamet dedicated six years to preparing for this role, starting in 2018 when he first discussed the project with the director, long before funding was secured, and continuing through filming in September 2024. During the COVID lockdown, he transformed his living room into a ping-pong practice space and even used the time to improve his musical skills for his role as Bob Dylan in the film *A Complete Unknown*. He assured *The Hollywood Reporter* that all of this is well-documented and will be revealed. He described these projects as uniquely allowing him years of preparation, and confirmed he was working on both simultaneously. One can only wonder if he channeled Bob Dylan while perfecting his ping-pong skills – a question that remains unanswered.

The new film, *Tron: Ares*, centers on a conflict between two tech company CEOs vying for control of the future. One CEO is pushing forward with artificial intelligence, hoping it will be a force for good – a cautiously optimistic outlook, to say the least. The film essentially accepts that AI is inevitable, but suggests we can only hope it will be friendly, and that it will take the form of Jared Leto. Leto plays Ares, a highly advanced program created by Julian Dillinger (played by Evan Peters), a cynical character who has taken over his family’s company. His mother, Elisabeth (Gillian Anderson, who seems to be enjoying her role), is a strong and determined leader. The film, directed by Joachim Rønning, depicts a fierce competition between Dillinger Systems and Flynn’s ENCOM to lead the AI revolution. It’s a somewhat unsettling thought that the fate of humanity might rest with either a defense contractor or a gaming company.
