A new book titled “The Art of the Movie” for Spider-Man: Brand New Day was recently listed on the Penguin Random House website, hinting at a release later this year. While the book currently has a placeholder cover and an August release date, the listing includes a complete plot summary – a major reveal since Sony and Marvel haven’t officially shared those details yet. This is exciting news for fans eagerly awaiting the trailer, and the plot seems to confirm many of the rumors circulating online.

Anya Taylor-Joy became a star thanks to her role as Elizabeth Harmon, a brilliant but troubled chess player, in the 2020 Netflix miniseries The Queen’s Gambit. The show was an instant success when it premiered in October, quickly becoming Netflix’s most popular program ever. It dominated awards shows, winning eleven Primetime Emmys and two Golden Globes, including a Best Actress award for Taylor-Joy. Many expected Netflix to continue the story as a full series – which is now common practice – but six years later, fans are still hoping to see what happens next.

This is precisely why the Norse-themed God of War games were so different – they revamped the setting, gameplay, and, importantly, gave Kratos more depth as a character. This fresh start was desperately needed, and the newer games have solidified the franchise’s place as a key PlayStation title.

The Deadpool: Samurai comic series briefly paused in 2024 but recently resumed with new issues. Now that it’s back, a major storyline has begun: Deadpool is facing a huge battle against an army of alternate versions of himself. It’s unclear how long this final confrontation will last.

Here is a look at more street-level heroes who still need to arrive in the MCU.

Most superheroes possess incredible willpower, enabling them to conquer any challenge. For characters in the DC universe, facing powerful enemies and seemingly insurmountable obstacles is commonplace. Interestingly, despite this prevalence of strong will, very few individuals become Green Lanterns, and none of them were established heroes beforehand. This limitation likely prevents already powerful characters from becoming truly invincible, but it begs the question: who else possesses the necessary willpower to wield a Green Lantern ring? We’ll explore seven DC heroes who demonstrate willpower on par with any Green Lantern, even without the ring’s power.

There haven’t been many truly great Mummy movies – you could probably count them on one hand, with the 1999 Brendan Fraser film being a prime example. But this spring, a new team – New Line Cinema, Blumhouse, and Atomic Monster – is trying to bring The Mummy back to life on the big screen. And based on the trailer for Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, this version might actually be good enough to join the ranks of the few truly successful Mummy films, as it seems to be doing something very different.

This game’s title might make you think it’s a ‘gacha’ game, but it’s actually a one-time purchase adventure. You can unlock a lot of different heroes as you play, and you don’t need to spend any extra money to get them all.

Interest in the God of War series recently hit a high point with the surprise release of God of War: Sons of Sparta during a PlayStation presentation. This followed the announcement of a God of War Trilogy remake, but Sons of Sparta quickly gained attention for its unique visual style and gameplay, which was inspired by the Metroidvania genre. While many fans were thrilled to finally see the long-awaited game, a vocal group strongly criticized it both when it was revealed and after playing. This strong reaction has led me to consider what it means for the future of the series, especially with excitement growing for the next installment, God of War 6.
