Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 takes place a year after the first movie, and follows Mike (Josh Hutcherson), Vanessa (Elizabeth Lail), and Abby (Piper Rubio) as they continue to grapple with the frightening events from their time at the pizza place. According to Bilge Ebiri of Vulture, the film’s focus on trauma feels overdone, as many horror movies now rely heavily on it. He notes that older horror films could scare audiences with simpler concepts, like a masked killer or a monster, but those days seem to be gone.

LEGO Marvel Avengers: Strange Tails is a first for Marvel on Disney+ – it’s the first Marvel story told in two parts. All previous Marvel shows and specials on the platform have either been longer than two parts, or consisted of just one episode – like all other LEGO Marvel specials.

The White House shared a video clip that altered a joke from a recent Saturday Night Live appearance by Sarah Carpenter.

HBO Max won’t be releasing Season 3 of My Adventures with Superman in December 2025, dashing hopes for a premiere this year.

The Ash People are a Na’Vi tribe who turned to fire and technology after a disaster destroyed their original home. They now live in a volcanic, ash-covered landscape and have joined forces with the villain Miles Quaritch, making them a significant danger to Pandora.

Despite a stellar cast including Brendan Fraser, Paul Bettany, and Helen Mirren, the 2009 film adaptation of Inkheart wasn’t a success with critics or audiences. While it was a fun adventure story, it didn’t reach the popularity of franchises like Harry Potter. Now, sixteen years later, a sequel is in the works, with plenty more story to draw from in the original books.

As a huge fan, I’m cautiously optimistic about this deal. Even though the company has a ton of money, it’s still a long way from being finalized. They need approval from regulators in the US and Europe, and there’s a real chance David Ellison and Paramount might try to block it altogether. Honestly, someone at Warner Bros. Discovery told me on Friday they think there’s only a 50/50 chance it actually goes through! And even if it does get approved, it could take a year and a half, or even longer, to actually happen. It’s definitely not a done deal yet.
