NBC has chosen to add Snoop Dogg to the reporter team covering the 2024 Paris Olympics this summer. After the success of Dogg and comedian Kevin Hart’s commentary of the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, we get it.Joining the Paris Olympics commentary team seems like another side quest achievement for the Doggfather. At this point we have to ask, is there anything Dogg can’t do? “I grew up watching the Olympics and am thrilled to see the incredible athletes bring their A-game to Paris. It’s a celebration of skill, dedication, and the pursuit of greatness,” Dogg said. “We’re going to…

The Pope of Trash himself, legendary filmmaker, writer, and actor John Waters is joining the cast of “Chucky.” This is not the first time Waters has had a role in the franchise. He previously played a sleazy paparazzi in “Seed of Chucky” and met a grizzly end. Waters claims that he was once recognized on the subway due to his role in the film. The longtime “Child’s Play” fan will be playing the reclusive creator of the Good Guys doll. We have to say, having Waters play the person who created the dolls feels like a stroke of genius. Waters…

The “Ghostbusters” franchise has had some pretty iconic spectral villains to fight off. “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire” will have a new big bad to bust. Hopefully this new evil will hold up to the likes of Gozer, Slimer, or the Kaiju-sized Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Jason Reitman’s “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” brought back Gozer for Egon Spengler’s (Harold Ramis) daughter and grandkids to handle. “Forzen Empire” director Gil Kenan, who co-wrote “Afterlife,” is bringing new life (or death in this case) to the franchise mythos. Death Chill is a glowing-eyed horned figured looming in the mist, who causes a fatal frost to envelop…

Two days was all it took for Twitch to change it’s mind and revert to the previous Sexual Content policy. So, no more artistic nudity.

“Supernatural” star Mark Sheppard survived 6 widowmaker heart attacks on December 1st. EMTs were successful in resuscitating him, multiple times. This is truly a miracle for the man who played the demon Crowley in the series.

Despite what you may have heard from fanboys online, Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man will not return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This was confirmed- pretty unequivocally- by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige.
