One thing that really bothers me about long-running movie or TV series is when characters don’t evolve. Studios and filmmakers often worry about changing a beloved hero or villain too much, even after many years, because they think audiences have a fixed idea of who that character is. But people change over time, and life experiences shape who they become. That’s why I’m excited about how the new series, IT: Welcome To Derry, is handling the character of Dick Hallorann, played by Chris Chalk – they seem willing to let him grow and change.

At first glance, the streaming service’s most popular shows might seem quite different from each other. While English-language shows generally make up the top ten, not all of them are from the US or UK. With the highly anticipated release of Stranger Things season 5 coming up, it’s easy to assume that big-budget, popular genre shows are the only ones succeeding.

While The Odyssey is famous as a standalone story, it’s actually a continuation of the events from the Trojan War. To fully appreciate it, it helps to know the story of the war, which is detailed in Homer’s Iliad. If you don’t want to read a long, ancient text, the 2004 movie Troy is a good option. Though it changes some details, it still captures the main relationships and conflicts of the war.

Captain America: Brave New World, the fourth Captain America movie from Marvel Studios, came out in US cinemas in February. The film is directed by Julius Onah and stars Anthony Mackie returning as Sam Wilson, now Captain America, alongside Harrison Ford as Thaddeus Ross, who transforms into Red Hulk.
