Fall hasn't even begun, but Disney is already on top of covering its anime lineup for October by revealing the exact date when its new anime adaptation, Twisted-Wonderland The Animation, is said to release. Based on the mobile game featuring characters inspired by the fairy tales everyone's grown up with, the 'twist' spins classic villains into inspirational historical figures.
Earlier this year, Disney announced that it would be creating an anime based on the Twisted-Wonderland manga written by Yana Toboso. Since the latter inputs the player as the main character, Yana's work reflects that concept by interchanging different 'main characters' every major book arc. The anime is looking to adapt the Book of Heartslabyul.

Now, Rob is explaining why he has been quiet over the past few years.
“I don’t wanna be filming and putting myself in a position where I’m not comfortable. I’m not comfortable in my skin, so why would I want to go be on camera and just be vulnerable and let people in when that’s not what I want to do?” Rob shared on Khloe in Wonder Land.

Exclusive: Nick Jonas is near closed on a deal to star as Kiss lead singer Paul Stanley in Shout It Out Loud, the McG-directed film about the formation of the venerable hard rock band in the 1970s. The film will go into production at the end of the year or in early 2026, with STX fully financing. The most recent draft is by Darren Lemke. Previous drafts were done by Ole Sanders and the first writer of the script was William Herron.
I’m told that Jonas will do his own singing, and he’ll need time to train to replicate the jet-engine vocals of Stanley. Besides headlining in the sibling band The Jonas Brothers, Jonas has also proven his chops onscreen. His rise began with the 2016 toxic masculinity hazing drama Goat. He shone in the Mma series Kingdom, as a young gay man who grows up in a family...

The Superman teaser trailer broke records when it was released last December, and filmmaker James Gunn has today announced plans to keep the hype train rolling with a "World Tour," which will see him and the cast take the movie across the globe.
The DC Studios co-ceo shared the news in a video posted to his X and Instagram accounts. That was accompanied by a new poster featuring the Man of Steel and a list of dates, likely referring to when those countries will host premieres and fan events.
This is a similar shot to the one featured on the teaser poster, and we have to believe more like this will be coming our way in the weeks ahead. Character posters will be a must for fans, and we expect those and more to land when tickets go on sale.
We also have a new featurette for Superman teasing David Corenswet's transformation into Superman.

When it comes to portraying the world’s most iconic hero and his arch-nemesis, you would expect to see some tension and a lot of charisma. What you might not expect is a game of Farkle, Star Wars impression, and some solid brotherly banter between David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult.
They are the faces of James Gunn’s Superman reboot, and it seems like the two will be bringing a lot more than just chiseled jawlines and capes to the table. Their chemistry feels like two friends who are caught up in never-ending inside jokes, and it’s refreshing to see actors of a possible blockbuster be so laid back and funny!

Jason Statham faces his most daunting opponent yet in his new action thriller, A Working Man: the wardrobe department.
Nb: The following contains spoilers for A Working Man.
The things we see in movies are seldom placed there by accident. From the specific positioning of a light to the books on a protagonist’s shelf, even the smallest details are generally by design rather than happenstance. Which helps explain some of the more outlandish wardrobe choices in A Working Man, the latest opus from Jason Statham.
In action terms, A Working Man has quite a pedigree behind it. It’s the second collaboration between Statham and director David Ayer; their previous film was 2024’s silly, deliriously enjoyable outing, The Beekeeper. Their latest creative pairing is based on a script by Sylvester Stallone, adapted from the 2014 novel Levon’s Trade by Chuck Dixon.
Unfortunately, despite all the commonalities between the two – including...

Sa fan-favorite character from Star Wars: The Mandalorian seems poised to return amid rumors of a potential The Mandalorian and Grogu appearance. Acclaimed actor Katee Sackhoff offers an encouraging update on whether fans will see Mandalore ruler Bo-Katan Kryze again.
Speaking with Screen Rant, Sackhoff insisted Bo-Katan is appearing "in some form," though when The Mandalorian and Grogu was mentioned, she smiled and pretended to be oblivious to the news of the Jon Favreau film wrapping production last December.
"You will see her again in some form. That's all you need to know," she said. Sackhoff also joked that she has job security in the Star Wars universe thanks to her connections with Dave Filoni, the sci-fi franchise's long-time producer. "Dave Filoni cannot get rid of me, because Bo Katan is based off of his wife, so I've got some job security," she said.

Chicago – Val Kilmer passed away on April 1st, 2025, after a long illness. He was once praised by Roger Ebert, “if there is an award for most unsung leading man of his generation, Val Kilmer should get it.” Photographer Joe Arce of HollywoodChicago.com took an Exclusive Portrait of Val Kilmer in 2012.
Val Edward Kilmer was born in Los Angeles. He subsequently became the youngest person in his era to be accepted into the Julliard School’s Drama Division. His first major film role was in the cult classic “Top Secret!” (1984), which paved the way to his next phase of breakout starring roles.

You’ve seen Willa Fitzgerald play a small-town cop with serious grit in Reacher, a tightly wound cheer coach in Dare Me, and a scream queen in, well, Scream. But she is far from typecast. This Yale-trained actress has been quietly building a wildly eclectic resume that spans everything from intense thrillers to period dramas.
Lately, she’s been turning heads with her lead role in Strange Darling, a thriller that’s anything but predictable, and her haunting performance in Netflix’s The Fall of the House of Usher proved she’s not afraid to get weird in the best way. While she’s no stranger to the spotlight, Willa still flies a little under the radar, which honestly just adds to her whole mysterious, cool-girl vibe.
With a mix of indie cred, TV mainstays, and theater chops, she’s one of those actors who’s everywhere and nowhere at the same time.

For the band’s sixth LP, lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter Greta Kline was joined by longtime collaborators Alex Bailey, Katie Von Schleicher, and Hugo Stanley. The quartet produced Different Talking entirely by themselves. Pre-orders are ongoing.

Touch and go is the word for live-action adaptations. One Piece (Op), on the other hand, is isolated from this for many reasons. The series was released in 2023, and fans were initially skeptical. Their reactions are valid considering the past blunders involving inaccuracy and whatnot.
Cowboy Bebop is a pretty good example of that. Its characterization, casting, and overall concept were dull and underwhelming. This is where Op stands out through its well-rounded adaptation. Though here’s a Netflix series that deserves its due recognition as one of the best live-action series.

It's with a heavy heart that we report tonight that Val Kilmer has died at the age of 65 in Los Angeles after a short battle with pneumonia. His daughter Mercedes Kilmer confirmed news of his passing to The New York Times earlier this evening.
Kilmer had also battled throat cancer since 2015, and had a procedure on his trachea that damaged his vocal cords to the point where it significantly limited his ability to speak. He had also undergone chemotherapy treatments and two tracheotomies.
He is survived by his two adult children, Mercedes and Jack, who he had with ex-wife Joanne Whalley.
Kilmer's breakthrough performance was in 1986's Top Gun, where he played Tom 'Iceman' Kazansky, and his career reached new heights in 1991 when he played Jim Morrison in The Doors. His most prominent credits also include playing Doc Holliday in 1993's Tombstone, Bruce Wayne/Batman in 1995's Batman Forever, and Chris Shiherlis in Heat.

Kilmer's breakthrough performance was in 1986's Top Gun, where he played Tom 'Iceman' Kazansky, and his career reached new heights in 1991 when he played Jim Morrison in The Doors. His most prominent credits also include playing Doc Holliday in 1993's Tombstone, Bruce Wayne/Batman in 1995's Batman Forever, and Chris Shiherlis in Heat.

Val Kilmer, one of the biggest stars of the eighties and nineties, has passed away at only 65 years old. The news was first reported by the New York Times, which says the actor died after a battle with pneumonia.

Kilmer’s health battles were immortalized in the terrific documentary Val, which was narrated by his son Jack Kilmer (also an actor), who sounded uncannily like his father.

Once Upon a Time was a show about the incredibly brilliant idea of a small town being the dreary setting and crossroads to some of the world's most wonderful stories, like Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and more. Once Upon a Time in Wonderland was an ambitious attempt by ABC to expand the universe of its hit fantasy series to the more zanier stories of Alice in Wonderland. Launched in 2013, the spinoff explored the whimsical yet treacherous world of Wonderland through the eyes of Alice, a young woman who defies societal norms in her quest for love and adventure. With a talented cast, including Sophie Lowe as Alice, and visual effects designed to bring Lewis Carroll's fantastical realm to life, the series promised a compelling story that would appeal to fans of the original show.
However, despite its potential, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland was canceled after just one season.

2024 has been an amazing year for gaming. And as the year comes to an end, there are one last set of awards to give out, the Steam Game Awards. Despite its success at The Game Awards, Astro Bot won’t even be in contention due to its PlayStation exclusivity. So maybe we’ll finally see Black Myth: Wukong pick up a much deserved win for Game of The Year (Goty).

Unlike other awards, the Sga is decided entirely by player votes, making it a true reflection of what the gaming community values. Black Myth: Wukong still faces competition from the likes of Stalker 2, Balatro, Helldivers 2, and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2.

Megan Fox was removed from Transformers over a comment? (Photo Credit – Instagram)
Was Megan Fox axed from Transformers after Revenge of the Fallen? The reason? A controversial comment likening director Michael Bay to none other than Adolf Hitler.
Back in 2009, Fox spilled her unfiltered thoughts to Wonderland magazine, calling Bay “a nightmare to work with.” She compared his on-set demeanor to that of Napoleon and said, “He wants to be like Hitler on his sets.” While she noted his “hopelessly awkward” charm off-camera, the damage was already done. The fallout was swift and public.
Despite Fox’s direct shots at Bay, it wasn’t his call to fire her—or so he claimed. The real hammer came down from Transformers executive producer Steven Spielberg. According to Bay’s 2011 GQ interview, Spielberg didn’t mince words: “Fire her right now.” However, Spielberg later denied involvement in the decision, leaving fans wondering who truly pulled the plug.

The Winter Wonderland event is returning to Overwatch 2 this December, with lots of freebies for participating players - as well as the return of 6v6 battles. Winter Wonderland has been Overwatch's annual holiday season event since the original game's release in 2016, featuring unique game modes, exclusive cosmetics, and maps decked out with Christmasy flair. It's since become something of a yearly tradition, with players looking forward to the unique challenges and festive skins brought on by the in-game event.
Last year's Winter Wonderland caused some controversy when, instead of rewarding players with event items when they completed certain in-game quests, it required players to earn and spend an event-exclusive virtual currency called Tickets. Thankfully, things work somewhat differently this year, with plenty of skins available absolutely free just by playing the game. Here's how to participate in Overwatch 2's Winter Wonderland event, and what you can expect to find when you do.

Megan Fox first rose to fame as the strong-willed Mikaela Banes in the Transformers franchise. Her character stood alongside the Autobots in their battle against the Decepticons. However, in her latest film, Subservience, Fox takes on a darker role in this I, Robotesque thriller, embodying a lifelike android who becomes increasingly possessive and dangerous. The AI awakens to consciousness, yearning for the family's love, and will stop at nothing to possess it.
This stark contrast between her past and present roles highlights the evolution of Fox's career and her ability to delve into morally ambiguous characters. As she continues to challenge expectations and push boundaries, it's clear that Megan Fox is a force to be reckoned with.
