When The Dark Tower adaptation was first announced, it was ahead of its time with plans for a connected universe of movies and TV shows. Ron Howard led the effort to bring Roland of Gilead’s story to life across different platforms. However, studio executives thought the idea was too bold, and they doubted audiences would follow the narrative from the big screen to television.
Saturday Night Live also featured content related to Jeffrey Epstein. The show’s cold open depicted Donald Trump, played by James Austin Johnson, and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, played by Ashley Padilla, answering questions about the recently released Epstein emails. Trump’s character even joked about selling a blurry copy of one of the emails – referencing the nickname “Bubba” – for $800. These emails, which mention Trump multiple times, were made public on Wednesday, and some felt it was inconsiderate of Congress to release them so late in the day.
In a podcast with the ever-loquacious Anthony Pompliano, Guillén addressed the critiques linking the pardon to Binance’s dalliances with World Liberty Financial and other Trump-adjacent entities. How tiresome, these connections drawn with the precision of a bored society matron’s embroidery. 🧵
Tyrion’s speech aimed to analyze the core themes of Game of Thrones, particularly how wealth and power inevitably lead to corruption, while also arguing that stories themselves are ultimately the most enduring and truthful things. He believed Brandon Stark, with his dramatic journey from a fall to becoming the all-knowing Three-Eyed Raven, possessed the strongest story and would therefore be the best ruler to restore the kingdom. While the idea that someone who doesn’t crave power is best suited to build a better world was a strong point, the final episode didn’t effectively demonstrate this idea.
James Gunn’s story of Superman will continue in 2027 with the release of Superman 2: Man of Tomorrow. The film will feature characters returning from the first movie, alongside new faces that fans will recognize from other parts of the DC Universe. There’s even a possibility a character connected to Batman, who already exists within the DC Universe’s established story, will make an appearance.
In James Gunn’s Superman film, Jimmy Olsen had a brief but important part in assisting Lois Lane with her investigation of Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult). Although he wasn’t on screen for long, he made a strong impression, and many viewers were particularly interested in his connection with Eve Teschmacher (Sara Sampaio).
The arrest happened a month after a video caused a lot of discussion about privacy, safety at work, and how DoorDash dealt with the situation. Livie Rose Henderson, who posts on TikTok as irlmonsterhighdoll, became known on October 12th when she filmed and shared footage of a customer she claimed exposed himself while she was making a no-contact delivery.
The upcoming series offers quick looks at several new monsters debuting in February 2026, and features the arrival of Kong in the eagerly awaited Apple TV show. One monster, a creature with tentacles, is thought to be Oodako, the Giant Octopus from the 1962 film King Kong vs. Godzilla. This idea is strengthened by details in the series description, which mentions “a mysterious village where a mythical Titan rises from the sea.”
The actor discussed this during an interview with Brandon Davis, host of Phase Hero. Bonnie Discepolo, who played Ali Jessop in Peacemaker, was also present. When Davis asked if Blackehart’s character, Happersen, followed Flag’s orders to find dimensional rifts out of fear of Lex Luthor’s punishment or disapproval, Blackehart responded by saying he’d seen a discussion about the same question on Reddit, and then continued with his thoughts.
