Hope you’re ready to FINALLY see the trailer for Netflix’s upcoming live-action adaptation of “The Sandman!” We’re expecting it to release during day 1 of Geeked Week, which kicked off today. The panel was hosted by Felicia Day. Last night, Neil Gaiman himself teased what fans are likely to see. Needless to say, fans have been very vocal about this adaptation; most have been positive, but others were pretty unhappy about casting choices. But, even those fans were happy to see early teases of things like Morpheus/Dream and his helm. “I cared very much about the physicality and image of…

Amazon Prime Video’s upcoming “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” is due later this year. Empire Magazine has been teasing fans this last week with new images and characters. This morning included a Harfoot (predecessors of Hobbits), and an iconic tower. The Harfoots are pretty much exactly like what we know to be Hobbits- short, feet with hair, obsessed with food- but they haven’t yet found the Shire, or called it home. “We’re a nomadic tribe, moving with the weather and the fertility of the crops. We have big caravans on wooden wheels and we’re very good…

If you’re a fan of “The Hunger Games,” chances are you’re at the least curious about the upcoming prequel. Based on another novel from author Suzanne Collins, “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” tells the earlier history of Panem. And, highlights a very young Coriolanus Snow, who we’d eventually know best as President.We know “West Side Story” star Rachel Zegler will play Lucy Gray, alongside Tom Blythe as Coriolanus Snow. Lionsgate premiered a teaser trailer for the upcoming film. While it doesn’t give away…anything really…we do get a release date.”The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” hits theaters…

We are delighted to share a first look at the upcoming 4th season of FX’s vampire comedy series. “What We Do in the Shadows,” based on the film of the same name from Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement, has been growing in popularity since premiering in 2019. This morning, FX dropped a teaser titled “Party,” for season 4! In it, we see the return of Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), Guillermo (Harvey Guillén), The Guide (Kristen Shaal), and even Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch)!! “What We Do in the Shadows” season 4 will premiere on FX on…

We’re not sure how to tell you this, but Jared Leto may have just confirmed “Morbius 2.” This is frankly baffling, and we’re not sure what to do with this information. We’ll just let the Oscar winner tell you himself… Obviously that title is a joke, and the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” theme should dissuade anyone from thinking this is real. But. Stranger things have happened. Sony’s “Morbius” returns to theaters today.

This just in-incredible sci-fi series “Raised by Wolves” will not be coming back for a third season. HBO Max has opted to cancel the visionary series.HBO Max released a statement about the choice:“While we are not proceeding with a third season of Raised by Wolves, we are beyond grateful to the stellar cast and crew. Our creators Aaron Guzikowski, Ridley Scott, David W. Zucker, and the entire team at Scott Free Productions, for their beautiful artistry and unique ability to immerse fans into the world of Kepler-22b.” Abubakar Salim, who plays Father in the series, has launched a call to action…

Those pesky Rotten Tomatoes review bombers are back on their bs. Following Star Wars and star Ewan McGregor’s very public anti-bullying and anti-racist statements, the audience score for the new Disney+ series has plummeted. True, one could assume this is simply because the audience didn’t care for episode 3, but, we all know that’s not what’s happening here. “Kenobi” star Moses Ingram publicly shared the harassment and hate-filled messages and interactions she’s been getting from ‘fans.’ The official Star Wars social media accounts issued a statement, “There are more than 20 million sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy, don’t…

Disney+ shared some pretty big casting news today for their upcoming adaptation of Rick Riordan’s “Percy Jackson” series. The show has already gotten its fair share of fan praise and ire in equal measures for casting. Praise, because lead Walker Scobell (“The Adam Project”) is much closer in age to Percy when we first meet him. Ire, because Leah Sava Jeffries will be playing Annabeth, and some fans are just plain racist. Today’s news includes some other pretty important characters, like Mrs. Dodds, who will be played by Megan Mullally (“Parks & Rec,” “Will & Grace”). Mrs. Dodds is Percy’s…pretty…

Maybe “Top Gun: Maverick’s” box office has been enough to prompt an announcement from Marvel Studios. We’re talking of course about the news “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” will be hitting Disney+ later this month. Sure, we knew that was likely to happen sometime this year. But mid-June, in the key weeks of summer blockbuster season, seems like an odd choice.The news was confirmed by official Marvel Studios’ and Disney+ social media accounts, along with the date. “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” hits Disney+ on June 22nd, 2022.
