First airing in 2019, Netflix's The Witcher has gone on to become one of the streamer's most popular fantasy franchises. Based on the best-selling novels by Andrzej Sapkowski (and taking heavy inspiration from the beloved video game series), The Witcher follows monster-hunter Geralt of Rivia and his adventures, trials, and tribulations across The Continent.

Looking ahead to season 4, The Witcher has undergone a few major changes since we last saw it on our screens. Perhaps most notably, Henry Cavill stepped down after season 3, having announced his departure from the series in 2022. The titular role was subsequently given to Liam Hemsworth, who will play Geralt beginning in season 4 through to its fifth and final season.

Tony Dinozzo and Ziva David are together once more in “NCIS: Tony & Ziva,” but they’re not without problems.

The new spinoff series picks up after the pair reunited in Paris, and sees Tony and Ziva have now raising their daughter, Tali, together. But, when Tony’s security company is attacked, they must go on the run across Europe and figure out what’s going on.

Of course, taking place in a larger universe, you’re going to recognize some faces in “NCIS: Tony & Ziva.” Here’s who you need to know.

The universe of ‘NCIS’ and its many spin-offs remains expansive, with each project sporting a variety of interesting characters. The Paramount Plus show ‘NCIS: Tony & Ziva’ introduces many new faces to the franchise as it centers around the new lives of former federal agents Tony Dinozzo and Ziva David. The duo, turned into star-crossed lovers due to life’s complicated circumstances, are living in Paris. Their relationship remains limited to amicable and friendly co-parents who remain in each other’s orbit via their little girl, Tali. Thus, as the show starts, Ziva is no longer Tony’s go-to partner in crime-solving. Instead, he seems to have teamed up with Claudette,...

The Television Academy has announced the presenters for the 2025 Creative Arts Emmy Awards, including “The Bear” star Jamie Lee Curtis, “The Pitt” star Noah Wyle and director Ron Howard.

The annual awards show will span two consecutive nights this year on Saturday, Sept. 6 and Sunday, Sept. 7. The ceremony will be held at the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles.

Jude Law is an accomplished English actor who first emerged from the world of British theatre before making his mark on screen in both film and television. His breakthrough performance came in Anthony Minghella's The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999), a role that earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

Kirby Howell-Baptiste, who plays Death in Netflix's The Sandman, is the latest actress to be linked to the role of Storm in Marvel Studios' X-Men reboot.

Though we weren't aware of the original rumor, TheDisinsider.com seems to think there might be something to it, and asked Howell-Baptists about the report during a recent interview.

Here's an excerpt from their article.

"When asked if she was aware of the rumor, if she was even interested in taking up the role – or if she had any reaction to the news at all, Howell-Baptiste paused and played coy. 'Send that article,' she said. 'I’d love to read it. How intriguing?...

Marvel Studios is gearing up to officially bring the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Kevin Feige first teased this plan back at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019, saying that mutants, including the X-Men, would appear in the MCU.

He also noted that this version would be very different from the X-Men films previously made by 20th Century Fox.

By 2023, Marvel was meeting with writers about the project, and in May 2024, Michael Lesslie entered talks to write the new X-Men movie. A year later, Lesslie was officially confirmed as the screenwriter.

Jake Schreier was later announced as the director after positive reactions to his work on Thunderbolts*. According to Feige,...

Marvel Studios has been quietly preparing to bring the X-Men into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Kevin Feige first confirmed back at San Diego Comic-Con in 2019 that mutants, including the X-Men, would eventually appear in the MCU.

He emphasized that the new films would be different from the previous X-Men movies produced by 20th Century Fox. By 2023, Marvel was meeting with writers about the project, and Michael Lesslie entered negotiations to write the script in May 2024, a role he officially took on a year later. Shortly after, Jake Schreier was announced as director following the positive reception to Thunderbolts*.

Marvel’s post-multiverse projects have already drawn major buzz when the studio announced a new X-Men movie. Several reports have emerged on the potential cast of the movie, and the latest report reveals who will replace Halle Berry as Storm in the new movie. According to scooper MainMiddleMan, Kirby Howell-Baptiste had been approached to play Storm.

Kirby began her career on a series of short films before landing small roles in shows like Comedy Bang! Bang! and House of Lies. She had recurring roles on shows like Love, Barry, The Good Place, and Veronica Mars Season 4. She also played main roles in shows like Downward Dog, Killing Eve, The Sandman,...

Oscar-winning superstar Julia Roberts will narrate the BBC’s upcoming adaptation of Rónán Hession’s Leonard and Hungry Paul.

This is the Erin Brokovich star’s first BBC role and will see her provide narration for the show about two board-gaming friends in their thirties. The friends meander through leafy suburban life, charting a story about Judo, ancient Rome, first loves and the expansion of the Universe.

Revealed by Deadline several weeks back and airing later this fall, Leonard and Hungry Paul for the BBC and Irish broadcaster RTÉ stars Laurie Kynaston (Fool Me Once, The Sandman), Jamie-Lee O’Donnell (Derry Girls, Screw) and Alex Lawther (The End of the F***ing World, Alien: Earth). Also joining the cast are Helen Behan (The Virtues), Lorcan Cranitch (Bloodlands), Niamh Branigan (Harry Wild), Paul Reid (Sherlock & Daughter), Charlotte McCurry (Say Nothing) and David O’Reilly (Doctors).

Richie Conroy and Mark Hodkinson are adapting the series for TV.

A Melanie Halsall creation, ‘My Life With the Walter Boys’ is an adaptation of the eponymous 2014 novel written by Ali Novak. In the second season of the teen drama series, the focus is yet again on Jackie, who returns to Silver Falls after the completion of her internship in the Big Apple for the summer. The reason for her returning to Silver Falls is not motivated by romance with either Alex or Cole, but a desire to have a family and a motherly figure in the form of Katherine Walter. However, when she returns to Silver Falls, Jackie notices a change in Alex, who is now a more attractive and confident version of himself.

A South Korean fantasy drama with a similar concept to Outlander has become an international hit on Netflix. The streaming service has long been the home to many acclaimed and popular fantasy drama shows. Some examples of fantasy dramas that can be watched on Netflix include The Sandman, The Witcher, One Piece, and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

There are also several stellar Netflix fantasy drama series which flew under the radar. The Netflix original series, The Oa, is arguably a must-see show for fantasy drama fans. The Oa has an impressive 84% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes, and that website's users gave the series an 83% Popcornmeter grade.

Outlander is another fantasy...

Ryan Reynolds will always be known for playing Deadpool first in the Fox X-Men universe and later in the MCU, but long before he ever suited up as the Merc With a Mouth, he starred in another comic book movie that’s finally coming back to streaming. Reynolds stars alongside Wesley Snipes and Dominic Purcell (Prison Break) in Blade: Trinity, the third and final installment in Snipes’ Blade trilogy. Blade: Trinity is currently absent from streaming, but Paramount+ has amended this and confirmed that the film will be available to stream on September 1. The other two Blade movies will also begin streaming at the same time.

"American Gods" may not have been the best TV show of the last 10 years, but it definitely had one of the best first seasons of the past decade. Initially overseen by Bryan Fuller of "Hannibal" and "Pushing Daisies" acclaim, the show did a riveting job of adapting Neil Gaiman's original fantasy novel right out of the gate. Sure, season 1 only covered the book's first five chapters over eight episodes, but it did so with so much style and confidence that it's hard to complain about the slow pace. The series knew exactly when and how to expand on its source material; simply put, season 1 had the sauce in a...

Following the allegations against Good Omens co-creator Neil Gaiman, the show's 90-minute finale is in a precarious position right now.

The witty and whimsical fantasy series, based on the best-selling novel by Gaiman and fantasy legend Terry Pratchett, aired for two seasons on Amazon Prime Video. The second season ended on a pretty big cliffhanger—notably the kiss between Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and Crowley (David Tennant)—leaving fans desperate for more.

Michael Sheen shares what he can on the Good Omens finale

In a recent interview at the Edinburgh TV Festival (as per Deadline), star Michael Sheen, who plays the angel Aziraphale, weighed in on the status of the feature-length finale.

Sakamoto Days' most highly anticipated story arc, as well as the premiere of a brand-new anime action series, are making their way to Netflix this fall. A release date for the upcoming Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell anime has finally been revealed, along with an exciting new trailer.

Per a press release, Netflix revealed the release dates and trailers for its latest action-packed anime rollout, aimed at older audiences, at Anime NYC 2025, taking place at the Javits Convention Center in New York City. Sakamoto Days, the long-awaited anime adaptation of the Shonen Jump manga by Yuto Suzuki, teased its next thrilling adventure -- and it's one fans have been "dying" to see.

A Game of Thrones fan favorite is trading Westeros for the world of Netflix’s blockbuster Extraction franchise. Can you guess who it is? You might recognize this talented actress from her previous role as Margaery Tyrell in the hit HBO fantasy drama series, or perhaps you watched her in the historical drama series The Tudors. It's none other than Natalie Dormer! She joins a growing cast of stars for the upcoming Extraction series.

Extraction was first announced back in February 2025. At the time, it was revealed that Lupin's Omar Sy had joined the Netflix action thriller show in the leading role, with Glen Mazzara (The Walking Dead) signed on as showrunner and executive producer. Joe Russo and Anthony Russo’s Agbo, which produced the hit Extraction films starring Chris Hemsworth, was also announced to be on board to executive produce the series.

Netflix has revealed the premiere date, key art, and first photos for House of Guinness, the upcoming drama series from Steven Knight. Knight is writing the next James Bond movie for Amazon MGM Studios.

From production companies Kudos and Nebulastar, House of Guinness will premiere on Netflix on September 25, 2025.

House of Guinness explores an epic story inspired by one of Europe’s most famous and enduring dynasties – the Guinness Family.

Set in 19th-century Dublin and New York, the story begins immediately after the death of Sir Benjamin Guinness, the man responsible for the extraordinary success of the Guinness brewery, and the far-reaching impact of his will on the fate of his four adult children, Arthur, Edward, Anne, and Ben, as well as on a group of Dublin characters who work and interact with the phenomenon that is Guinness.

Created and written by Steven Knight, the series is executive produced by Karen Wilson,...

Gwendoline Christie is, of course, best known to audiences for her portrayal of Brienne of Tarth on HBO's "Game of Thrones." The actor rose to prominence on the HBO fantasy series, where her impressive 6 '3'' stature allowed her to embody the powerful and imposing Brienne introduced in George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" books, on which the show was based. Brienne was the heir to House Tarth and a warrior who aspired to knighthood, despite that honor being denied to the women of Westeros. Over the course of the series, she formed a close bond with her one-time prisoner Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), who would go on to fulfill Brienne's wish and eventually knight her, making her the first female knight in the Seven Kingdoms.

Naturally, "Game of Thrones" put Christie on the radar of many fantasy fans -- and, apparently, many casting directors as well.

As DC Studios co-ceo James Gunn dives into his new DC Universe, the last show to not utilize his resources is now officially over. Gunn and Peter Safran joined forces as DC Studios' top executives nearly three years ago, with plenty of new projects already in development or ready for release. Since then, the comic giant's presence outside of the new Dcu has been trimmed, including one hit show far from its HBO Max-residing cohorts.

The second part of DC Entertainment's The Sandman Season 2, the show's final season, was released on Netflix on July 24, 2025. Coming to the streamer behind excellent reviews for Season 2, The Sandman continues the story of...

Boyd Holbrook has joined Omar Sy in the cast of Netflix's new Extractionseries, Mercenary. Holbrook, previously seen in Narcos and Marvel's The Sandman, has signed on to co-star with Sy in the limited series installment set inside the Extraction franchise, based on the films starring Chris Hemsworth and Golshifteh Farahani.

Extraction, the action film series starring Chris Hemsworth, centers on Tyler Rake, a mercenary from the Australian Army who has been tasked to extract specific targets. The popular film franchise, slated to see its next installment potentially in 2026 with the release of Extraction 3, has now become a franchise property, expanding into streaming.

In a statement shared with Netflix, Agbo, the production company led by Joe and Anthony Russo, who are executive producers of Mercenary, said they are "grateful" to be collaborating with Netflix again on another series. They are "inspired to tell more stories in this global franchise...

Boyd Holbrook is the latest addition to the cast of the “Extraction” TV series currently in the works at Netflix, Variety has learned.

The show was formally announced back in February with Omar Sy in the lead role. As reported at the time, it is set in the same world as Netflix’s “Extraction” films and has received an eight-episode order. Exact character details for Holbrook are being kept under wraps.

Successor to the King With the success of Netflix’s The Sandman and its upcoming second season, Neil Gaiman has firmly cemented himself as one of the most adapted authors in recent memory. Like fellow spooky-minded author Stephen King, Gaiman’s work has been a deep well from which Hollywood continues to draw. With his eerie brand of imagination, he’s proven to be one of the most reliable voices in the fantasy genre, both for his own stories and for other creators. Behind the scenes, Gaiman has built a diverse career, from writing the localized English script for Princess Mononoke to co-writing the dark, brooding 2007 3D-animated Beowulf. He’s penned episodes of Doctor Who and Babylon 5, and even wrote the opening for Hellboy II: The Golden Army. Essentially, if your story barely resembles reality, Gaiman has probably been on someone’s shortlist. For comic book fans and fantasy lovers,...

After years of waiting and build-up, “Fargo” creator Noah Hawley’s ambitious new entry in the “Alien” franchise, FX’s “Alien: Earth,” has finally arrived. The series, which is set in the same universe as the other “Alien” films, drops viewers right into a dystopian future where Earth is controlled by a handful of all-powerful corporations and the humans who find themselves at their mercy are repeatedly subjected to reckless biological experimentation and unnecessary danger.

At the center of the series are characters with opposing interests, perspectives and goals. There are a lot of them, and they are played by actors you may or may not have ever seen before. With that in mind, here is your guide to who’s who in the new, long-awaited FX series.

It's a fantastic time to be Joseph Quinn. Over a decade after he unsuccessfully threw his hat in the ring to play Peter Parker in "Spider-Man: Homecoming," the English actor is enjoying the fruits of a multi-year hot streak that began with a breakout performance as Eddie Munson in "Stranger Things 4" back in 2022. Both he and the character became something of a viral hit, making him one of the most in-demand young actors almost overnight.

Having previously played smaller, supporting roles in British television dramas that seldom made much noise in the states, Quinn was now being courted to star in major film franchises, including a highly-anticipated sequel to Ridley Scott's "Gladiator," a prequel to John Krasinski's blockbuster horror series "A Quiet Place," and, of course, "The Fantastic Four: First Steps," arguably the most coveted Marvel Studios project produced in years. Amidst these excellent, buzz-worthy performances, Quinn has...

The Blob, one of the most beloved horror films of all time, is undergoing the reboot treatment once again. First, Steve Andrews (Steve McQueen) fought against the alien shapeless parasite in 1958, and then, in 1988, Meg Penny (Shawnee Smith) and Brian Flagg (Kevin Dillon) saw their town fall prey to the giant slime. Now, modern audiences will once again confront the mold-like substance under the direction of David Bruckner and producer David S. Goyer. However, fans of the original should be aware that there are a few planned changes, and this will surely spark some debate.

The new version of The Blob has been under development for some time. Rob Zombie and Simon West were at some point attached to the remake, but they each parted ways. Bruckner, famous for films like The Ritual and The Night House, is still reportedly in the project, which is being produced by Goyer and Keith Levine.

One of the most devastating cancellations last year was Dead Boy Detectives.

This show, set in The Sandman universe, follows the adventures of the Dead Boy Detectives agency led by Charles and Edwin, a pair of ghost boys, along with their friends Crystal, a psychic, and Niko.

When Netflix announced that the show would not be returning for a Season 2, fans were obviously devastated.

(Ed Araquel/Netflix)

However, the streamer ordered another season for The Sandman, though Season 2 for this show would be its last.

So, fans held out hope that our favorite ghost boys would make a brief appearance.

Unfortunately, Netflix let us down yet again. Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.

If an entirely new Harry Potter TV series wasn't enough, Audible will debut an ensemble cast audio dramatization of the beloved novels later this year.

The audio series follows in the footsteps of previous successful Audible dramas, such as 1984 and The Sandman, boasting a stellar cast with names such as Hugh Laurie as Albus Dumbledore, Matthew Macfadyen as Lord Voldemort, and Riz Ahmed as Professor Snape.

Another major casting sees Michelle Gomez take on the role of Hogwarts Professor Minerva McGonagall. Naturally, people have taken issue with yet another Harry Potter adaptation, and many have also thrown shade at the cast for taking part in an adaptation of J.K. Rowling's work.

In the case of Gomez, she quickly took to her Instagram Story (per Entertainment Weekly) to speak out against Rowling's anti-trans views.

Apple TV+'s sci-fi hit sporting a 96% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, Murderbot, has received a cautious update for season 2 and beyond, and what they may entail. Based on The Murderbot Diaries series written by Martha Wells, the show follows the assignments of its title private security construct. Murderbot season 2 was confirmed as season 1 closed out.

Speaking with ComicBookabout The Sandman season 2, Murderbot executive producer David S. Goyer explained how the show would handle its story in season 2 and well into the future. He explained how there will be some differences between the show and Wells' novels, such as series regulars coming back who weren't involved in the source material's version of events:

I would say there are five other books that Martha Wells has written, so there’s a lot more material. I don’t know if the show will last five, six seasons. The only difference between the...

The first full week of July was a big one for streaming with seven titles surpassing 1B minutes watched in the U.S., per Nielsen’s latest report.

For the first time ever, Love Island USA led the pack from July 7 to 13 with 1.9B minutes watched. Not only is that the highest weekly total ever for the series, it’s also the first time that a Peacock series has ever reached the No. 1 overall spot.

This is quite a feat for the series, which had struggled to find its footing in its first five seasons. That all changed with last summer’s Season 6, catapulting the series into the cultural zeitgeist the way that its UK predecessor had already been able to do.

Since Nielsen doesn’t report viewing per season, this includes any and all viewing of previous seasons during this week as well, so it’s hard to say...

The Sandman producer, David S. Goyer, has broken down why the show ended early, despite more seasons being planned. The show was adapted from the comic book series co-created by Neil Gaiman, and premiered on Netflix on August 5, 2022. Despite its success and critical recognition, the series concluded on July 31, 2025, after two seasons and 23 episodes.

The Sandman follows Morpheus, the personification of dreams, who escapes from 106 years in captivity and sets about restoring order to his realm, known as the Dreaming. Despite two more seasons being planned, it was revealed that The Sandman season 3 is not happening, and the show would end with season 2.

Per ComicBook.com, Goyer discussed the original plan for the show to span four 10-episode seasons, but the short length of some of The Sandman comic issues meant that the show was burning through material faster than expected, so it didn't make sense for the series to overstay its welcome.

When the Og Blade, Wesley Snipes, quipped in Deadpool and Wolverine, "There's only ever gonna be one Blade," no one thought it’d prove so ominous. It’s been six years since Marvel Studios first announced the Mahershala Ali-led new Blade movie, and it’s still in development. The numerous delays and changes in top-line talents made everyone curious as to what was hindering the project. And so was original trilogy writer David S Goyer, who is currently busy promoting the final chapter of Netflix’s The Sandman.

Marvel Studios has been through a major creative overhaul in the past few years, thanks to a failing box office and waning fan interest. The change was visible in Daredevil: Born Again as the studio promises to give us well-crafted stories. Blade seems to have suffered due to this reason. Goyer shared in a new interview with ComicBook, “I have been...

David S. Goyer is more than willing to return to Blade if Marvel ever requires his assistance. The filmmaker recently offered an update on the long-gestating project.

Speaking to ComicBook, Goyer said he would be happy to revisit Blade if he was asked. "I've had a lot of people and journalists ask, 'Why don't you go in there and help them with it?' Prior to that happening, I hadn't really considered it. But I had my agent call Marvel about six months ago to say, 'Do you guys need any help with it?' And they said, 'No, we're good. We're on the right path now.' I wouldn't say no to it. It would be interesting to revisit it decades afterwards."

Goyer also addressed some of the difficulties the company has faced adapting the character. "I have been puzzled why they are having so much trouble because they already had Mahershala Ali.

You’ve seen the Endless in all their glory over two seasons of The Sandman, and now the anthropomorphic embodiments of Destiny, Death, Dream, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium have been immortalized in stunning new fashion.

In celebration of the live-action series’ epic finale, which is now streaming on Netflix, celebrated illustrator Rory Kurtz has painted a larger-than-life mural of the show’s vibrant characters and immersive worlds on one giant, intricately detailed digital canvas.

The stellar final image, which you can check out above, took about three months to paint. Kurtz, who has previously worked with the likes of A24, AMC Studios, Amazon Studios,and Sony Pictures among others, is also a lifelong Sandman fan. “I started reading [the comics] in the ’80s, so I was over the moon to get the opportunity,” Kurtz tells Tudum. And while he was originally booked on another project when he first received the call...

During the week of July 28-Aug. 3, “KPop Demon Hunters” achieved not only its seventh week on the Netflix Top 10, but became one of the streamer’s most popular titles ever.

With a total of 158.8 million views since its June 20 debut, the musical fantasy is now in fourth place on the all-time English-language films chart, outranked only by “Red Notice” (230.9 million views), “Carry-On” (172.1 million) and “Don’t Look Up” (171.4 million). Netflix measures its all-time lists by accounting for all views in each title’s first 91 days of viewing, meaning that “KPop Demon Hunters” has seven weeks left to continue climbing higher.

“Happy Gilmore 2” was the only movie to beat “KPop Demon Hunters” during the week of July 28-Aug. 3. The Adam Sandler comedy hit 40.8 million views in its first full week on Netflix, down just slightly from the 46.7 million views it achieved in its opening weekend. In the No. 3 position after “KPop Demon Hunters...

“KPop Demon Hunters” made Netflix history during the week of July 28, becoming the streamer’s fourth most-watched English-language movie to date. In the seven weeks since its debut, the action musical secured 158.8 million views.

The animated movie from Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans has now been more widely watched in its first 90 days than Ryan Reynolds and Jennifer Garner’s “The Adam Project,” Sandra Bullock’s “Bird Box,” Cameron Diaz and Jaime Foxx’s “Back in Action,” Sam Esmail’s “Leave the World Behind,” Ryan Gosling’s “The Gray Man,” Millie Bobby Brown’s “Damsel” and Robert Rodriguez’s “We Can Be Heroes.” It also bumped “We Can Be Heroes” out of Netflix’s top 10 most popular English-language movies list.

And since the 90-day cutoff for “KPop Demon Hunters” won’t happen until mid-September, chances are high that ranking will only be going up, up, up.

Despite the success of Netflix’s latest hit,...

With the first trailer out, Noah Baumbach is back with Jay Kelly, a film born from what he calls a “quiet crisis.” After the ambitious and polarizing White Noise, the most expensive project of his career, the acclaimed director found himself questioning whether he even enjoyed filmmaking anymore.

He admitted in an interview with Vanity Fair:

That was a really hard time for me. I’m very proud of that movie, but I had a really hard time making it. I had this feeling of, like, ‘Am I doing this just because I always wanted to do it—do I even like doing it anymore?

Two things pulled him out of that creative rut: co-writing Barbie with Greta Gerwig and forming a new working partnership with Emily Mortimer (the duo wrote Jay Kelly). Starring George Clooney as an aging movie star facing his own reflection, it represents Baumbach’s return...

While you might know him best for penning the novel that went on to spawn the entire Rambo franchise, author David Morrell is more than just a one-trick pony. He's written a slew of books since First Blood that have been translated into 30 languages, with one of them being the 2005 horror tale, Creepers. Now, thanks to Lionsgate and Suretone Pictures, we have the first trailer for the film adaptation, titled Do Not Enter, which is directed by Marc Klasfeld in his feature debut.

Starring Adeline Rudolph (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), Nicholas Hamilton (It), Francesca Reale (Stranger Things), Jake Manley (The Order), Kai Caster (Yellowstone), Shane Paul McGhie (After), Brennan Keel Cook (The Pale Blue Eye), Javier Botet ([Rec]), and Laurence O'Fuarain (The Sandman), the trailer for Do Not Enter (seen below) showcases all the horror that's to come in the new flick, which has yet to set a release date, but is labeled as "Coming Soon.

By a show of hands in the comments section, who remembers the 1988 comedy Young Einstein, starring Yahoo Serious? If you’re nodding your head, give yourself a gold star, and prepare for another film focusing on an influential figure with the word “Young” in the title. According to Deadline, Ben Kingsley, Andy Serkis, and Joel David Smallbone are joining the cast of Young Washington, a presidential biopic focusing on George Washington, America’s first president.

The Young Washington biopic is from Wonder Project and Angel Studios. Jon Erwin is directing it. William Franklyn-Miller plays a young George Washington for the epic origin story, chronicling the political figure’s rise to power. “After making a tremendous mistake that triggers the French and Indian War, an ambitious 22-year-old Washington must face his failures and find the courage to become the leader that will forge a nation,” says Deadline’s description of the film.

Do not look. Do not run. Do not panic. And whatever you do, Do Not Enter.

On the heels of our poster reveal, watch the trailer for Do Not Enter below. A release date has not yet been set, but the horror-thriller is coming soon from Lionsgate and Suretone Pictures.

Based on the 2005 novel Creepers by First Blood author David Morrell, the story follows a group of thrill-seeking urban explorers known as the Creepers, who livestream their adventures from abandoned locations.

They venture into New Jersey’s notorious Paragon Hotel seeking a legendary gangster’s missing $300 million fortune, only to encounter hostile rivals and supernatural forces.

The final episode of The Sandman, "A Tale of Graceful Ends," deals with the fallout of Morpheus' death and the emergence of a new incarnation of Dream of the Endless, with Daniel Hall (Jacob Anderson) struggling to come to terms with his very existence and the rest of The Endless coming together to mourn their departed brother.

Tom Sturridge does appear in one final flashback scene towards the end of the finale, as we see Morpheus pay a visit to William Shakespeare upon the completion of his second commissioned play, The Tempest.

Dream invites the legendary playwright to The Dreaming to share a glass of wine, and we find out why the Prince of Stories made a deal with the then "naff actor" known as Will Shaxberg in the first place. Deep down, Morpheus knew that he could never abandon his responsibilities as Destruction had by leaving "his island," and...
