The film We’re All Going to the World’s Fair follows Casey, a teenager who participates in a scary online challenge called the “World’s Fair Challenge” and films herself doing it. She starts recording what seems to happen afterward, sharing the videos online and receiving strange messages from someone named JLB. The movie has a deliberately grainy, low-budget look and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2021. Critics generally loved the film, giving it a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but audiences haven’t been as impressed, with a score of just 28%.

Xbox is partnering with Fanta to offer special in-game rewards in several of its popular titles. Starting in April, customers who scan Fanta packaging will be able to unlock rewards in games like World of Warcraft, Call of Duty: Warzone, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and Diablo IV. When Halo: Campaign Evolved and Forza Horizon 6 launch, players will also be able to earn rewards. Notably, Halo players can get a unique orange and yellow skin for Master Chief inspired by the look of a Fanta can.

Krypto the Superdog will be back in the upcoming Supergirl movie, and this time he’ll have a much larger role. The new trailer shows that the story revolves around Krypto being poisoned, forcing Kara to find an antidote and save everyone. This creates a powerful emotional core for the film, and positions Supergirl as a DC Universe story with a similar feel to Guardians of the Galaxy.

The BBC revealed the first images of John Bell as the new Duke Shelby, and confirmed the series will be set a decade after the events of The Persuaders! Bell’s version of the character has traded in the classic, distinctive clothing of the original for a more modern suit.

You can now watch Queen of the Damned on Tubi. While it’s considered a sequel to the 1994 film Interview With the Vampire, the story is a little complex. The movie doesn’t follow the second book in the series; instead, it jumps ahead to the third book, The Queen of the Damned, and borrows some ideas from the second book to continue the narrative. Michael Rymer directed the film, and Stuart Townsend took over the role of Lestat (previously played by Tom Cruise). The movie also stars Aaliyah as Akasha, the ancient vampire queen, in her final film appearance.

Replacing Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man won’t be simple, but several actors could potentially take on the role. With strong writing and a fresh take on the character, we could see exciting new Iron Man moments in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Here are some actors who have the talent and skills to convincingly play Tony Stark if the MCU decides to recast the part.

In 2005, WayForward and Namco created Sigma Star Saga, a unique shoot ’em up RPG for the Game Boy. Now, on April 7th, an updated version—not a complete remake—called Sigma Star Saga DX will be available on other platforms. Limited Run Games is releasing a special edition of this enhanced version for dedicated fans and those who remember the original game.

I’m so excited that Shangri-La Frontier is really taking off as a fantastic isekai! It’s still growing, and while it has a ways to go to reach the popularity of giants like Sword Art Online and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, more and more people are discovering Sunraku’s incredible journey. The best news? Season one is hitting Netflix on May 1st! We’re all hoping Netflix picks up the rest of the series too, so we can see Sunraku’s whole story!

The movie Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves authentically brought the world of the game to life, featuring recognizable places like Neverwinter, spells directly from the rulebooks (such as speak with dead and reverse gravity), and creatures from Underdark lore, including the dragon Themberchaud. Despite positive reviews, the film only earned $208 million globally, while costing $150 million to make. This wasn’t enough to justify Paramount’s plans for a series of six movies, especially after considering marketing expenses. As a result, the franchise stalled, and fans won’t get to see Drizzt Do’Urden – a hugely popular character from the Forgotten Realms – who was originally planned to appear in the film but was ultimately cut.

While promoting their new show, Shadow Lord (now streaming on Disney+ as of April 6th), the creative team spoke with ComicBook about how discussions between Lucasfilm and Dave Filoni shaped the series. Executive producer Matt Michnovetz, who previously wrote an unreleased story arc for The Clone Wars, said they constantly considered these earlier conversations and are eager to see how fans interpret their influence. The team also aimed to make Shadow Lord enjoyable for all viewers, whether they’re longtime Star Wars fans or newcomers.
