If there’s one thing Andor does better than any other Star Wars show, it’s world-building. Nowhere is that more obvious than in Luthen Rael’s gallery, the Coruscant antique shop that’s a front for the rebels, and also serves as one of the most lore-packed locations in the franchise. The Rebellion might be brewing behind the scenes, but up front it’s pure fan service. There are relics and references that span the entire Star Wars timeline, from the Old Republic to the Clone Wars to Jedi: Fallen Order.

Showrunner Tony Gilroy has openly admitted that these details aren’t always in the script. It's the crew, especially the art team, who slyly smuggle them in. He told GamesRadar, “They sneak that s*** in,” and it’s fantastic that they do. Because in Andor, even the background tells a story.

Taylor Tomlinson waved goodbye to After Midnight with an emotional monologue, praising the team that makes the CBS late-night show and saying she was “very grateful” for the opportunity.

The comedian began by calling it an “emotional” night.

“I’m so grateful that I got a chance to do this. I never thought that I would be able to host a late-night show. This was never something that was on my vision board at all because I just didn’t think it was possible for me. I’m a touring standup and I feel very grateful to have that career that I do, and this opportunity came along at a time in my life where I could take advantage of it, and, while, unfortunately, I couldn’t keep doing the show, it just wasn’t sustainable for me. I can’t believe that I got to do it as long as I did,...

It's been 12 years since Matt Smith last played the Doctor in the BBC seriesDoctor Who. According to former writer Steven Moffat, while the actor has been involved in huge projects like House of the Dragon, Smith has expressed interest in returning to the Doctor Who set.

RadioTimes reported that Moffat appeared in Doctor Who: Unleashed, where he shared his recent WhatsApp conversation with the former actor he has worked with since 2010. He revealed that after Smith learned it had been 15 years since his first appearance, the actor replied that he wished he was on the Doctor Who set. This is when the former showrunner "begged" him to return.

"Today, as I sit here, is the 15th anniversary of when the 11th Doctor fell to Earth and ate fish custard. I WhatsApp'd Matt this morning saying it was 15 years, and he said, 'I wish I was on that set now'.

In case of emergency, Byron Allen.

CBS has found its post-Colbert series in Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen — again.

Starting on Monday, Sept. 22, Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen will once more follow The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, as it did in a limited run in fall 2023.

Panel show After Midnight aired for two seasons before being canceled.

British royal family news reveals that former British prime minister, Boris Johnson, has spilled some tea on how the late Queen Elizabeth really felt as she faced illness prior to her 2022 passing.

Johnson was at the queen’s refuge, Balmoral, Scotland, on September 6, two days before the Queen’s death.

In an excerpt from his memoir, Unleashed, Johnson noted that “Edward Young, her private secretary, tried to prepare me. I had known for a year or more that she had a form of bone cancer, and her doctors were worried that at any time she could enter a sharp decline.”

Queen Elizabeth Passed With Grace

During the visit Johnson was told that the regent’s health had deteriorated “quite a bit over the summer.” Yet the queen remained quite lucid and the illness that wracked her body did not touch her mind.

According to the former prime minister the monarch...

There’s been a lot of small pieces of news for Netflix Games over the past week, and given that today saw the soft-launch of Street Fighter, here’s a quick rundown of all the pieces of news you may have missed as it relates to Netflix Games.

In case you missed it last week, we did a deep dive into some of Netflix’s biggest hits and what that’s saying about the changing direction the streamer is taking in the mobile gaming space. The Guardian followed up a day later with a piece about some of the woes we touched on. Their conclusion seems to be somewhat in line with ours that Netflix’s strategy is certainly shifting from the early days.

As it stands, Steel Paws is the only main game release scheduled for...

In November 2021, Netflix ventured into a brand-new medium—gaming. While it had previously experimented with game production and distribution, it had never launched games within its own ecosystem. Fast-forward nearly four years, and Netflix’s gaming library has expanded to over 100 mobile titles and more than a dozen on its cloud gaming platform. However, as we’ve been reporting, things are changing. So, where is Netflix Games headed next, and what does the data reveal?

Over the past six months, Netflix Games has made headlines, but not always for the right reasons. It all started with the closure of a major Aaa studio and then the news that they’re pushing into AI gaming (which went down like a plate of cold sick). Then, in December, Netflix removed over a dozen titles from its catalog. January brought more disappointing news as Netflix canceled several upcoming games,...

New music drops every Friday. Here are some of the noteworthy awards contenders that debuted on Feb. 21, 2025.

The British singer-songwriter has no previous Grammy nominations, but he’s a hit in his native country, with his two previous albums Hypersonic Missiles and Seventeen Going Under both topping the charts and going platinum in the U.K. He hasn’t quite caught on in the U.S. yet. The 30-year-old rocker peaked at No. 12 on Billboard‘s Heatseekers Albums chart for new and developing artists with Missiles, and he has placed two songs on the Hot Rock and Alternative Songs chart, but he has otherwise kept a low profile on this side of the Atlantic. That said, he has been embraced by music journalists: People Watching has a Metacritic score of 90 based on the first six reviews counted.

This might surprise you, but Jet Li's Western films -- ones shot primarily in English -- have grossed basically the same amount as Jackie Chan's (not counting Chan's voiceover work in animated films). Each of them have brought in just over two billion dollars with their English-language releases, but the odds are pretty good that regular moviegoers will recognize Chan far more often than they do Li. Why? That's a good question, and the answer probably has something to do with Chan's ubiquitous presence and those aforementioned family-friendly animated films.

Longtime action fans know that Li has delivered just as many absolute bangers as Chan, but while the latter made his name with comedy and a creative use of his environment, Li secured a spot in the action hall of fame based almost solely on his blisteringly fast skills. A fantastic fighter and athlete, as at home on...

In the mid-2000s, you could be forgiven for thinking action films had gotten a little stale. The genre tends to go in waves; whenever something hits in a big way, you get derivative, increasingly stale copies. Think about all the Die Hard rip-offs or the way every movie tried to copy The Matrix with bullet time and wire-work post-1999. Heck, we’re experiencing it right now with superhero movies and John Wick clones. Whenever this happens, it’s more-or-less left to international cinema to come along and shake us up with something different, done far outside the mainstream, to revitalize the genre. That happened in 2004, when a small movie from France, District 13, introduced Parkour to mainstream audiences.

So, what’s Parkour? Think of it as free running in an urban setting mixed with acrobatics and martial arts. It was founded by the star of District 13, David Belle, a Parisian...

Louis Leterrier has directed the action films The Transporter, Transporter 2, Unleashed, and Fast X, the action comedies The Brothers Grimsby and The Takedown, the mystery thriller Now You See Me, the fantasy adventure Clash of the Titans, and the comic book adaptation The Incredible Hulk (not to mention the TV shows The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and Lupin), and over the decades his films have racked up $2 billion at the box office. Last May, we learned that he’ll be directing and producing the film 11817, working from a screenplay by Matthew Robinson (The Invention of Lying), which will see him venturing into the sci-fi horror realm. That same month, it was announced that Kingsley Ben-Adir (Bob Marley: One Love) and Greta Lee (Past Lives) would be starring in the film… but now it looks like Ben-Adir has had to drop out, with Wagner Moura (Civil War) stepping in as his replacement.

Get ready, players: Netflix’s new mobile game “Squid Game: Unleashed” is adding characters and competitions from the recently launched Season 2 into the game beginning this Friday.

Among the additions that viewers will find familiar if they’ve already binged Season 2 are the “Mingle” game, which eliminated dozens of players’ lives in just a few rounds on the show, and three Season 2 players: rapper Thanos (Player 230) and mother-son team Geuma-ja (Player 149) and Yong-sik (Player 007).

As Variety previously reported, “Squid Game: Unleashed,” which was developed in-house by Netflix’s growing games division, was made with input from the “Squid Game” TV series team and based on scripts for both Season 2 and the upcoming third and final season.

This is the first of multiple planned updates that will incorporate spoiler-related content into “Squid Game: Unleashed” following the drop of new episodes. Netflix is already planning a similar strategy for the game surrounding...

Exclusive: Mark Kimsey and Roger Birnbaum’s Electromagnetic Productions are developing the feature film, Inconceivable.

The film, written by Lauren Black, is a gripping thriller about 38-year-old college professor Sydney Drake, who is determined to obliterate any obstacle in her quest to conceive.

Along with Birnbaum and Kimsey, James Deutch from Emp will produce with Colleen Camp, Jonathan M. Black, Lauren Black and their companies Colleen Camp Productions and Chair 10 Productions.

“I didn’t become a mother until I was nearly 40. For most of my adult life, I was perpetually single and never in a place to have a baby on my own. All the while, the question nagged at me: What if I waited too long?” said screenwriter Lauren Black.

British royal family news reveals that the late Queen Elizabeth fought her own private cancer battle in the final year of her life. This year her son and heir King Charles, as well as future queen Princess Catherine, have undergone cancer treatment.

The queen’s motto was “never complain, never explain” but the public had no idea how far the queen was willing to go in order to remain stoic. Here is what to know about the queen’s cancer battle.

Kate Middleton – Fought Cancer this Year

According to former British prime minister, Boris Johnson, he saw Queen Elizabeth two days before her death in September of 2022.

On September 6 he visited Balmoral and explained in his memoir, Unleashed, that “Edward Young, her private secretary, tried to prepare me. I had known for a year or more that she had a form of bone cancer, and her doctors were worried that...

Former U.K. prime minister Boris Johnson was “fired” from Channel 4‘s overnight election coverage after going on and on about his book, according to the program’s co-host.

Krishnan Guru-Murthy, who together with fellow broadcaster Emily Maitlis was presenting the U.S. election results show America Decides, introduced an updated panel of guests a little later into the night with the ex-Tory leader missing — and it wasn’t clear if his departure was planned.

Alongside a varied line-up, including Succession star Brian Cox, adult film actor Stormy Daniels and acclaimed pollster Frank Lutz, Johnson had said he had met with Republican Donald Trump following the July assassination attempt. He continued: “In case I failed to mention this, I am promoting my book Unleashed, and I had a talk with him about Ukraine.”

Newsreader Guru-Murthy told Johnson that holding up his book not even two minutes into the program was...

Here’s why Dave Bautista worked hard to break his s*x addiction (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Popularly known as the WWE Superstar, Dave Bautista rose to fame after his successful career as a professional wrestler. The actor who became a six-time world champion was a wrestling icon, but his aspirations beyond the ring landed him in the Hollywood industry. After starring in films like Guardians of the Galaxy as Drax the Destroyer and Dune, Bautista found massive success in the film industry. Despite his widespread acclaim, Bautista’s past life wasn’t always easy for him as he regrets some past decisions.

Dave Bautista’s S*x Addiction

As a wrestler, Bautista earned stardom. However, he decided to try something different and landed in Hollywood. Bautista has been part of films like Blade Runner 2049, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, Army of the Dead, and Guardians of the Galaxy.

While it's a well-known fact in Star Wars that Darth Vader was hopeful to overthrow Emperor Palpatine, it's perhaps lesser known that, in Star Wars Legends, he began this process long before the original trilogy era by recruiting an apprentice known as Starkiller. Born as Galen Marek, Starkiller's story was revealed in the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed video games, which followed his journey from the child of two Jedi to one of the galaxy's most powerful Sith apprentices. Though the games are no longer considered canon, Starkiller's story still matters, and is certainly worth knowing.

The Force Unleashed was released in 2008, around the same time that the animated Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie and TV show launched - which means that Starkiller has been around for just as long as many iconic Clone Wars characters have, including Ahsoka Tano and Captain Rex. His story, however, is one of tragedy and betrayal,...

Sister Wives star, Meri Brown tries to protect her fans by giving them an upfront warning about a creepy photo. Since she knew it was alarming, she made sure fans had the option to not be blindsided.

Meri Brown Doesn’t Like Being Blindsided

During the latest trailer for Sister Wives Season 19, Meri Brown shows she isn’t in the mood to repair the relationship with Kody Brown. However, it is completely understandable because she was blindsided by Kody saying he regrets marrying her. When he says, “It’s not divorce that sucks, it’s marrying the wrong person,” he wanted it to sting. However, Meri confesses in the side interview, “It’s not divorce that sucks, it’s marrying the wrong person.” Since Meri doesn’t like being taken off guard, she gives her fans a heads-up before showing a disturbing photo.

No financial details was forthcoming today, but Cake released a statement noting “it is in advanced negotiations” to acquire its rival’s brand. More news will come “within the coming weeks,” the company added, and it’s not yet clear if the deal is only for Jetpack’s assets or the entire company.

The Doctor Who season finale, ominously titled "Empire of Death," wrapped up with Sutekh's defeat and the Doctor parting ways with Ruby Sunday after she'd finally found her mother (you can find a full recap here).

While it made sense for Ruby to leave the Tardis behind so she could get to know her mother and track down her dad, many Whoniverse fans were shocked to see her time with the Doctor end so quickly. Set photos have confirmed actress Millie Gibson will be back in season 2, though Varada Sethu is expected to be the new main companion.

Talking on Doctor Who: Unleashed (via SFFGazette.com) showrunner Russell T Davies justified the decision to have the Doctor and Ruby part ways.

Jonathan Groff crafted his Doctor Who character Rogue with inspiration from Han Solo Rogue shares similarities with Han Solo, both taking on dubious jobs and having a softer side beneath their tough exterior. Despite only appearing once so far, Groff's portrayal of Rogue has made him a celebrated addition to Doctor Who.

Doctor Who actor Jonathan Groff reveals which beloved Star Wars character inspired how he approached crafting the character and personality of his intergalactic bounty hunter Rogue. In the Doctor Who season 14 adventure, Rogue is sent to 19th-century England to track down a shape-shifting Chuldur that could throw Earth into chaos, only to cross paths with Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday. Despite starting things off poorly, the Time Lord and bounty hunter join forces, eventually falling for one another.

As Doctor Who season 14 prepares to enter its season finale, Groff reflected on the...

Gatwa's emotional scene in "Dot and Bubble's" ending was the first thing he filmed and left the team in awe.

"Dot and Bubble" stands out for its dark and heavy subject, creating a memorable and striking final moment.

Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies reveals an astonishing detail behind Ncuti Gatwa filming "Dot and Bubble's" devastating ending scene. Episode 5 of Gatwa's debut season saw the Doctor and Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) attempt to break a city full of young adults out of the grip of an all-encompassing social media trend. In the final moments of the episode, it is revealed that the slug-like Mantraps are only a small part of a more horrific world, as bigotry and hate are all-too-prevalent throughout those who call Finetime home.

Doctor Who season 14, episode 5 explores racism through a powerful twist ending, challenging viewers to confront their own biases. Showrunner Russell T Davies wanted to highlight the reality of racism in modern society, not just in the past. The episode forces audiences to question why they didn't notice the lack of diversity in the all-White cast sooner, creating a memorable moment.

Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies is opening up about the stunning twist at the end of season 14, episode 5. After an entire episode focusing on Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor leading a group of wealthy internet-obsessed people to safety, he quickly learns that they would rather die than spend time with a Black man. The Doctor is left to mourn their coming deaths, while also considering the flaws of humanity. Doctor Who season 14 is filled with social commentary, but this episode directly addressed racism and slowly seeded the theme through the episode.

A former a rodeo hand, oil field worker and semi-pro football player, the Oklahoman singer-songwriter and guitarist broke out with his debut 1993 anthem “Should’ve Been a Cowboy,” which launched a string of smash singles that would stretch into the 2010s.

Toby Keith, the country music star and symbol of mid-aughts American patriotism, has died at the age of 62.

The swaggering, square-shouldered singer-songwriter, affectionately known to fans as “Big Dog Daddy,” revealed his battle with stomach cancer in June 2022, six months after he had been diagnosed and undergone treatment. He “passed peacefully” on February 5th, 2024, “surrounded by his family,” a statement on his website reads. “He fought his fight with grace and courage.”

Toby Keith Covel was born on July 8th, 1961 in Clinton, Oklahoma. He was inspired to learn guitar at eight years old and performed with friends in local honey-tonks through his early twenties while working in oil fields and playing semi-pro football in Oklahoma City.

The original Star Wars trilogy has spawned a vast catalog of books, comics, and other media that expand on the story and characters. The Force Unleashed video game and Rogue One both offer compelling and emotionally impactful stories set during the early days of the Rebel Alliance. Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars and Star Wars Infinities provide non-canon yet entertaining and creative takes on the original trilogy.

The original Star Wars trilogy is still considered the franchise's magnum opus after 40 years, but it has also spawned countless stories set during the same era. Before the first film hit theaters in 1977, Star Wars had received a novelization and a comic adaptation, offering dedicated sci-fi readers a preview of what would become one of the all-time greatest movies. Star Wars books and comics continued to expand the original trilogy era during the wait between films, with more stories added over time to create a vast catalog.

Renowned French director Luc Besson, director of Léon and The Fifth Element is releasing a new thriller next year. Briarcliff Entertainment will release Luc Besson’s thriller DogMan in select theatres on March 15, 2024, and will expand on March 22, 2024. The film, written and directed by Besson, had its World Premiere at the Venice FIlm Festival and stars Caleb Landry Jones, Jojo T. Gibbs and Christopher Denham.

The plot synopsis from Briarcliff Entertainment reads,

“In DogMan, having just been arrested, Douglas opens his heart to tell the moving story of his life. As a survivor of childhood trauma, with a violent father who forces him to live in the family kennel, he develops a bond with dogs that defies understanding. Out of this hell, he grows to discover love, theatre, and cabaret, but also the injustice and disillusionment of the human world. In a life that’s been broken a thousand times,...

Donald Glover and Francesca Sloane are bringing Mr and Mrs Smith to the small screen, here’s the trailer.

2005 was a good year for action films. Jet Li gave one of his greatest performances opposite Bob Hoskins in Unleashed and Christopher Nolan kicked of his iconic trilogy with Batman Begins.

Another hugely successful film that year was Mr And Mrs Smith. It saw Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie play a married couple who, unbeknownst to each other, are both world class assassins. The film originally cast Nicole Kidman to star opposite Pitt, but scheduling conflicts with The Stepford Wives meant she had to drop out.

Doug Liman directed the film from a screenplay by Simon Kinberg, and while it is by no means perfect, it remains a hugely enjoyable, rollicking ride.

Now, Donald Glover and Francesca Sloane have brought the story to the small screen.

The synopsis reads as follows:...

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Doctor Who: Wild Blue Yonder.

David Tennant and Catherine Tate explain how their accidental encounter with Sir Isaac Newton leads to the concept of gravity being named "mavity". Despite the Doctors and their companions' efforts to preserve the timeline, they have inadvertently rewritten history before, inspiring famous historical figures and causing ripple effects. The "mavity" line in could even become a running gag, enshrining the Doctor and Donna's blunder in the show's history.

David Tennant and Catherine Tate break down the surprisingly universe-changing gravity joke seen in Doctor Who's second 60th anniversary special, "Wild Blue Yonder" in incredibly specific, "timey wimey" detail. The 60th anniversary specials see Tennant return as an all-new fourteenth incarnation of the Doctor, reuniting with Tate's returning companion Donna Noble for the first time in just over 14 years under mysterious circumstances. In "Wild Blue Yonder", the Fourteenth Doctor and...

Catherine Tate easily returned to Doctor Who after a 14-year gap because Donna Noble is a brilliantly drawn character that she never really left. Bringing back Donna Noble was the right decision as she is one of the most beloved actors from Doctor Who, and her return allows for character maturity and bittersweet nostalgia in the anniversary specials. Donna Noble's growth into a mother adds intense maternal energy to her character, and viewers will be emotionally invested as she fights to return home to her daughter in the next special.

Doctor Who’s Catherine Tate explains why her return to the British sci-fi show came easily. As the BBC revived the series in 2006, Tate portrayed the Tenth Doctor companion, Donna Noble. The actor recently returned to the show for the first of three Doctor Who 60th anniversary specials, “The Star Beast.” Following the ending of Doctor Who's 60th Anniversary...

Warning! Spoilers ahead for the Doctor Who special "The Star Beast."

Russell T. Davies returns as showrunner for Doctor Who season 14 and the 60th anniversary specials, finally adapting "The Star Beast" for the screen. "The Star Beast" episode features modern techniques and an increased budget, showcasing the value of visual effects in bringing the fluffy and sinister Meep to life. The Meep's storyline in "The Star Beast" connects with modern-day themes and characters, including Rose, a young transgender woman, adding depth to the story's exploration of identity and belonging.

Russell T. Davies wishes that he had adapted the first Doctor Who 60th anniversary special story sooner. Davies returns as showrunner for Doctor Who season 14 and the 60th anniversary specials. The first of said specials, “The Star Beast,” aired this past weekend, and the second episode, “Wild Blue Yonder” will release on December 2.

Speaking on the BBC’s Doctor Who: Unleashed,...

Tennant's return as the Fourteenth Doctor allows for a unique regeneration into Gatwa, breaking the rules and pushing boundaries in the series. The plot of Tennant's return explores why the Doctor's face has never been regained before, leading to an extraordinary ending and new territory for the show. Doctor Who's 60th anniversary specials will be accessible on Disney+ internationally and on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in the UK.

Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies shares his honest thoughts about how he approached writing David Tennant's Fourteenth Doctor return. In October 2022, the show revealed a shocking twist when Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor took on the face of her Tenth incarnation in "The Power of the Doctor." Tennant's return to the role will help celebrate the show's 60th anniversary across three-anniversary specials before Ncuti Gatwa takes the keys to the Tardis as the Fifteenth Doctor for the 2023 seasonal special,...

“Horror is not just for Halloween anymore,” Universal’s Mark Woodbury told Bloomberg back in January, announcing an upcoming year-round, all-horror destination in Las Vegas.

Universal Horror Unleashed is the destination’s official title, we’ve now learned today!

The destination, which essentially turns Halloween Horror Nights into a year-round affair, is said to feature “content from both historical and upcoming films” from Universal.

Bloomberg explained, “At 110,000 square feet, it will be the anchor tenant in a 20-acre expansion of Area15, an entertainment district that opened in 2020. The location, near the city’s famous Strip and off of the 15 freeway, already includes themed restaurants and entertainment attractions such as Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart, an immersive art experience.”

No word yet on when the spooky space will be opening up for business, but it sounds like Las Vegas is about to become a “bucket list” destination for horror fans across the world.

Doctor Who: Unleashed, a behind-the-scenes series, is returning after a 12-year hiatus, providing fans with an intimate look into the creation and details of the show. The series is set to follow in the footsteps of its predecessor, Doctor Who Confidential, by offering interviews, production footage, and more, hosted by Steffan Powell. There is anticipation for the international release of Doctor Who: Unleashed, with the potential partnership with Disney+ opening the doors for a global audience to enjoy the behind-the-scenes series.

As the clock turns, whirling us into the cosmos of time and space, fans worldwide are holding their breath for the much-anticipated 60th-anniversary celebrations of Doctor Who. Replete with all the exhilaration, the cosmic chronicles continue as David Tennant takes a bow, reprising his role in the legendary series. In a spectacular reunion, Donna Noble, portrayed by the phenomenal Catherine Tate, joins him for brand new thrilling escapades across the universe.
