The new series will still tie into the existing Marvel Cinematic Universe, most notably through the return of Ben Kingsley as his character Trevor Slattery. This will be Slattery’s fourth appearance in the MCU, after first appearing in the 2013 film Iron Man 3. He was a somewhat divisive character with fans when he debuted, as he played a key role in a major plot twist involving the true identity of the Mandarin.
I’m completely captivated by the story of Dunk! It’s amazing watching him journey to Westeros after losing Ser Arlan, and even more incredible that he picks up a squire, young Egg, along the way. He dreams of becoming a renowned knight, hoping to earn a place with a great house—he even dares to imagine serving the Targaryens! But as soon as the Targaryens and the Iron Throne appear, things naturally get complicated. What I love is that through all the drama, Dunk remains wonderfully down-to-earth. There’s a really endearing moment where, after a battle, he awkwardly tries to rally the crowd and then immediately asks Egg, “Was that ill-handled?” It’s just so him. The series, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, premieres on HBO and Max on January 18th, and I can’t wait to follow their adventures each week!

The robot you see in the video isn’t actually intelligent on its own. What’s happening is that ChatGPT – the AI language model – is controlling the robot’s movements. There’s a longer video available, but a short clip of the most dramatic part is also circulating online. It’s a bit unsettling, because it echoes the fears often depicted in science fiction about the future of AI. Interestingly, despite the potentially scary scenario, the way ChatGPT seems eager to pull the trigger is surprisingly amusing. It’s important to note that the robot is using a BB gun, not a real firearm, though it still looks like it could sting.
Josh Watson, design director at 1047 Games, says they’re completely rebuilding Splitgate, keeping the best parts of both previous games and getting rid of what didn’t quite work.

Oh, the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection, with its letters and laws, scolded Robinhood Derivatives, KalshiEX LLC, and Crypto.com for peddling sports event contracts without licenses. “Sports wagering requires a license!” they cried, as if the very air of Connecticut should be taxed for such daring. 🏟️
Sony has already successfully revived Will Smith’s older films, most notably the Bad Boys franchise, even during the pandemic. Now, they’re considering bringing back Men in Black, and it hinges on Smith’s willingness to participate. Deadline reports that Sony is working on a script by Chris Bremner, who wrote Bad Boys for Life, with the intention of offering Smith the first opportunity to star. While the size of his role is still uncertain, it’s unlikely they’d go to such lengths for a small part.
This trailer shows us more of Ser Duncan the Tall (Peter Claffey), especially how he interacts with the nobility of Westeros. One character, a Targaryen you might not immediately recognize due to his hair color, shows him a surprising amount of respect.
