Hannah Montana’s Jason Earles Admits He Lied About His Age During Show

Okay, so this is a fun little Hollywood secret! As someone who keeps up with celebrity stories, I recently heard that Jason Earles, who played Miley Cyrus’s brother on Hannah Montana, actually wasn’t a teenager when he got the part. He told producers he was younger than he actually was – he fibbed about his birthday! – to be able to play the 16-year-old Jackson Stewart. It just goes to show you, even on Disney Channel, a little bit of strategic storytelling can help you land your dream role!

Crimson Desert Studio Seemngly Won’t Showcase Xbox Series X/S Gameplay Before Launch

When IGN inquired about the absence of Xbox Series X/S gameplay footage, Pearl Abyss pointed to the published console specs and offered review codes to those who requested them. This means some players might still get a glimpse of the game before its official release through reviewers, but don’t count on seeing gameplay directly from the developers themselves.

Val Kilmer Confirmed to Be Resurrected Via AI for New Movie Role

Val Kilmer was cast as Father Fintan in the film As Deep as the Grave, a priest with Native American spiritual beliefs. This role resonated with Kilmer’s own Cherokee heritage, alongside his Swedish, German, and Irish ancestry. The character was also written to have tuberculosis, which conveniently aligned with Kilmer’s existing vocal limitations. Director Coerte Voorhees felt it was too perfect a fit to let Kilmer’s health prevent the film from happening, especially given the movie’s small budget and the fact that production had already spanned six years, leaving them with limited alternatives.

38 Years Ago, a Cult Sci-Fi Series Became a Criminally Underrated Movie (& Helped Kill He-Man’s Studio)

As the 1980s saw a boom in animated shows based on toys, BraveStarr arrived in syndication on September 14, 1987, with a unique approach. Unlike most toy-based cartoons, Filmation created BraveStarr first and then partnered with Mattel, reversing the usual process. Set in the 23rd century on the desert planet New Texas, the show combined science fiction and Western themes. It followed Marshal BraveStarr, a Native American lawman voiced by Pat Fraley, who used the power of spirit animals to fight the villainous Tex Hex and the bull-like Stampede. The series ran for 65 episodes, ending its initial run on February 24, 1988. Less than a month later, on March 18, 1988, Filmation released BraveStarr: The Movie, a story that took place before the series. Unfortunately, the movie was a failure, effectively ending the BraveStarr franchise and contributing to the eventual downfall of Filmation.

Devolver Digital and doinksoft announce fantasy action platformer Dark Scrolls for Switch, PC

Doinksoft’s Cullen Dwyer recently expressed frustration with the term ‘roguelike.’ He explained that searching for it online yields unrelated results like poker, pachinko, story-driven games, and even card games. Dwyer questions how these compare to the classic 1980s-style, turn-based dungeon crawlers originally associated with the term, arguing that simply having ‘randomness’ isn’t enough to qualify. He jokingly admits to contributing to the problem and suggests the term ‘Metroidvania’ might be equally misused.
