We all knew it was a matter of time before James Cameron’s “Avatar: The Way of Water” hit the big $1 billion mark 14 days after releasing. Several industry insiders pegged the film for this milestone at some point this week. Chances are without the huge winter storm hitting the East Coast during the Christmas holiday, this number would have happened earlier. The still-ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has kept audiences from fully returning to theaters. It’s worth noting only 3 films hit $1 billion this year- “Top Gun: Maverick,” “Jurassic World: Dominion,” and now “The Way of Water.” “Avatar: The Seed…

We are absolutely delighted to share the latest teaser for the upcoming season of “Doctor Who.” Not only do we get a brand new Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa), BUT ALSO the return of two favorites. David Tennant and Catherine Tate are reprising their roles as The Doctor and Donna Noble, respectively.Neil Patrick Harris will also appear. “Doctor Who” returns sometime in 2023. You can catch 13 of the ‘modern’ (Christopher Eccleston-Jodie Whittaker) series/seasons on HBO Max. Check out the teaser below:

Fans of Charlie Cox’s portrayal of Matt Murdock, aka The Man Without Fear, aka Daredevil, were delighted to see the actor return to the role. Little did we know how great that return was going to be. Marvel Studios’ “Spider-Man: No Way Home” officially introduced Matt Murdock to the MCU, and “She-Hulk” brought Daredevil home. We absolutely loved how they used the character along side Tatiana Maslany’s Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk. And even more so- a romantic tryst resulting in a morning walk of shame for the horned hero. But not every fan appreciated this addition. Many vocal haters- probably…

Remember the days of Myspace? Profile songs? Everyone learning basic html code to make those stupid sparkling cursers? Yeah. The simpler times of social media. What if we told you Tom Anderson, the genial ‘Tom’ synonymous with the platform, was interested in running Twitter if Elon Musk leaves?Yesterday, Twitter CEO Musk ran a poll, in which he asked if he should leave the company. He also said he would ‘abide by the results,’ which of course were overwhelmingly yes. Today, he continued, saying he’d “step down as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job! After that,…

Often listed as one of the most iconic actors of his generation, Harrison Ford is embarking on a new adventure. No, not the 5th “Indiana Jones” film- although yes, that *is* on the way. Also no, not “Yellowstone” prequel series “1923” which he co-stars with Helen Mirren (which is on Paramount+ now). We’re talking about his unlikely addition to Marvel Studios’ upcoming film slate.”Harrison Ford, we couldn’t be more excited,” “Captain America 4” producer Nate Moore teased of Ford’s involvement. “Obviously, when you have Han Solo or Indiana Jones involved in your movie, it just raises the game. So, we’re…

2022 is coming to a close, and Disney+ is whetting the appitites of fans with a tease of what’s to come in 2023. Disney originals, Marvel Studios returns, Star Wars premieres, and more were included in new video. There were shots of “Loki” season 2, the upcoming “Peter Pan & Wendy” project (starring Milla Jovovich’s daughter Ever as Wendy), Emilia Clarke and co in Marvel Studios’ “Secret Invasion,” Rosario Dawson in her “Star Wars” spinoff series “Ahsoka,” “The Mandolorian” season 3, and more! There was a even a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it shot from “American Born Chinese!” So, check out the sneak peak…

Elon Musk, polarizing figure, has decided to poll Twitter with a fairly topical and important question. Should he, step down as the head of the company? He swears he’ll “abide by the results” of the poll. This is most likely a ploy, but it would be pretty great if everyone voted yes, and he did it. The final results, with 17,502,391 votes, was 57.5% yes, to 42.5% no. No comments from Musk yet, but we’re sure that’ll change soon.

This just in-Donald Glover is FINALLY, really and for true, joining the Spider-Man universe. (Yes, we know he appeared in “Spider-Man: Homecoming” in a cameo as Aaron Davis, theoretically Miles Morales’ Uncle Aaron.) While it’s not quite what we were all anticipating, it will be a project set within the web. Glover will star in and executivie produce the project, which will bring a really obscure Spider-Man character to the forefront: Hypno-Hustler. Myles Murphy, son of Eddie Murphy, will pen the script. Not really a main character or anything, Hypno-Hustler first appeared in the Spider-Man comics in 1978. Leader of…

Audiences were surprised by the official teaser for both “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” on opening night showings of “Avatar: The Way of Water.” Three-time Oscar nominee Greta Gerwig directs, with stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, respectively. We kinda really love the amount of detail there in all the Barbie Dream Houses in the pink land. Also, the “Zoolander” vibe of Ken and co. We also know Issa Rae, Will Ferrell, Rhea Perlman, and actor/director Emerald Fennell are on cast, as well as new “Doctor Who” Ncuti Gatwa!While the poster says “summer 2023,” “Barbie” will hit theaters…

This entire DC Studios thing just keeps getting weirder and weirder. After already confirming a “Man of Steel 2” was on the way, it would appear that is no longer the case. James Gunn, co-head of DC Studios along with Peter Safran, is apparently penning a brand new “Superman” film, WITHOUT Henry Cavill. Gunn does say he had a meeting with Cavill about working together in the future, but this current script will be about Superman at an earlier stage in life. So, another recasting. Cavill has since commented on the situation on his Instagram. Ok we did think of…
