Haruo Sotozaki directed *Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle*, the first of three planned movies adapting the final chapters of the manga. Picking up right after the end of Season 4, the film throws the entire Demon Slayer Corps into a massive battle against Muzan and his most powerful demons, the Upper Ranks.
The new *Tron* movie, *Tron: Ares*, is set 14 years after the events of *Tron: Legacy*. Producer Justin Springer recently told GamesRadar+ that the film, starring Greta Lee, Jared Leto, and returning actor Jeff Bridges, continues the story from where the previous movie left off. He explained, “We’re telling a story that’s 14 years later.”
I’ve been hoping Noah Wyle would win an Emmy ever since his days on *ER* back in 2000, so I’m thrilled *The Pitt* finally brought him that recognition. The medical drama received a total of thirteen Emmy nominations and won five awards: Outstanding Drama Series, with Noah Wyle winning Outstanding Lead Actor, Katherine LaNasa taking Outstanding Supporting Actress, Shawn Hatosy from *Chicago P.D.* winning Outstanding Guest Actor, and the show earning Outstanding Casting for a Drama Series. Wyle also contributed to the Outstanding Drama Series win as an executive producer.
The Guardians of the Galaxy have had several different beginnings in the comics, so it’s good to be aware of that. Characters like Drax used to be portrayed as Earthlings, and Mantis was one of the very first members of the team. Despite these changes, there are still fantastic stories featuring the original version of the Guardians, and a few of those are listed below.
The deck team really came through, particularly after Kerry dismissed Caio, the first bosun, who I’d become friendly with. Hugo remained calm as his crew got caught up in Solène’s schemes and successfully avoided most of the personal conflicts on board. Occasionally, this affected the interior team, like with the issue involving Solène and the embargo. However, for the most part, it worked well – the deck crew consistently did their jobs. Aside from a few minor mistakes, which the captain quickly resolved, there weren’t any major problems.
Unlike most DC characters who began as comic book creations, Harley Quinn first appeared in the 1992 animated episode of Batman, “Joker’s Favor.” Originally meant for just one appearance as a contrast to the Joker, she quickly became popular with both the show’s creators and viewers, leading to her becoming a regular character. Two years later, her backstory was explored in the comic book *The Batman Adventures: Mad Love*, which revealed she was once Harleen Quinzel, a psychologist who fell in love with the Joker while interning at Arkham Asylum. After that, she became an increasingly important character within the broader DC universe.
None of the *Law & Order* shows received any nominations for the 2025 Primetime Emmys. However, Mariska Hargitay, who stars in *SVU*, is the only lead actor from the franchise to have won an Emmy, receiving the award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 2006. That same year, Christopher Meloni, then a co-lead on *SVU*, was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series but lost to Kiefer Sutherland for *24*.
During the first season of *The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives*, Jen stated she was a distant relative of the actor from *The Accountant*, due to a shared last name within their families. However, once the show became popular, online viewers discovered no actual connection in their family histories. In the next season, Jen’s husband, Zac, said his family was just joking about the connection, but Jen felt they were being serious and hadn’t meant it as a joke.
I recently spoke with the cast of *Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale* and learned about a fun game they used to play with Maggie Smith while she was still on set. Called ‘Wink Murder,’ Kevin Doyle and Allen Leech shared that they actually played the game even while filming scenes throughout the show’s many seasons.
I was completely mistaken. Everyone says Stephen King writes intense stories, and I’d been warned that *The Long Walk* was especially brutal, even for devoted readers. Now that I’ve seen the movie and read the reviews, I understand why. Let me share my thoughts.
