The character of Manny will be played by a new actor in season 3 of The Last of Us, meaning Alexander Ramirez will no longer be with the show. This change is due to scheduling issues, as filming for the next season is expected to start next spring. Although it hasn’t been officially stated, these conflicts are likely related to Ramirez’s work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It’s curious that The Last Broadcast, released only a year earlier, used similar filmmaking styles and explored comparable themes, but didn’t achieve nearly the same level of popularity. Poor timing, limited distribution, and a quickly evolving media environment meant it was largely forgotten when people began discussing the emergence of found footage horror films.
This show is important because it brings the Green Lantern Corps back to live-action after a long hiatus – it’s been since the 2011 Green Lantern movie. It also explores an idea that was previously considered for the DC Universe under Zack Snyder. Before James Gunn’s recent reboot, Snyder had planned to introduce a Green Lantern character who ultimately didn’t appear in any films.
The marketing campaign for Avengers: Doomsday has been quite different from typical movie promotions. Marvel has been slowly revealing details, starting with a set photo of the cast and then releasing trailers in stages. This unusual approach seems to be because Doomsday will involve a massive team-up of Marvel heroes across different universes. However, the latest trailers suggest the film might be using a similar marketing tactic as a previous Avengers movie.
Rosario Dawson, who plays the title role in Ahsoka, posted a New Year’s Eve selfie on Instagram. The photo shows her wearing a black jacket featuring the show’s logo, offering a glimpse behind the scenes of the upcoming second season.
As a huge Batman fan, I’m really excited about what James Gunn is doing with the DC Universe! It sounds like the Batman we’ll see in The Brave and the Bold is going to be totally different. James Gunn and Peter Safran have said this movie is intentionally going in a new direction, and they’re promising three things we’ve never seen in a live-action Batman film before. Seriously, this could be the most unique take on the character yet!
At the end of Endgame (available on Disney+), Pepper attended Tony Stark’s funeral alongside their daughter, Morgan, and close friends like James Rhodes and Happy Hogan, as well as many of Tony’s superhero colleagues. Six and a half years after the film’s release – and about the same amount of time passing within the Marvel Cinematic Universe – Gwyneth Paltrow, the star of Marty Supreme, shared her thoughts on where Pepper is now in an interview on Entertainment Weekly’s The Awardist podcast. She mentioned needing to rewatch all the Avengers movies to fully understand Pepper’s current storyline, but then offered her speculation:
Thrillers, thanks to directors like David Fincher, Martin Scorsese, and Alfred Hitchcock, are known for their strong stories and captivating mysteries. These films often challenge viewers to figure out a crime before the characters do, which has made them some of the most well-crafted in Hollywood. Netflix boasts an impressive collection of thrillers, ranging from realistic crime dramas to suspenseful stories about assassins, and includes several truly essential movies.
Let’s be honest, we all have a Winona Ryder movie we adore, but there’s one that truly stands out as her best. What I admire most about Ryder is how she’s consistently broken Hollywood’s mold. So many talented actresses face an expiration date, but she’s managed to stay iconic – a genuine classic in a way very few performers ever do.
Science fiction often makes us think and stretch our imaginations, and the film Blade Runner is a perfect example. Even small details in the movie have sparked debate about its true meaning. Forty-three years after it first came out – and with a sequel now released – the biggest question the film poses still doesn’t have a definitive answer.
