Professor Binns, played by Richard Durden, was previously confirmed to appear, filling the gap left by the omission of History of Magic lessons in the films. Additionally, Johnny Flynn is set to play Lucius Malfoy in Season 1, even though he wasn’t introduced until the second book, The Chamber of Secrets. Now, we’re getting more details about both of these additions, and it clarifies why Lucius Malfoy is appearing so early. Lox Pratt, the new actor playing Draco Malfoy, recently told 1883 Magazine that filming is taking place at Malfoy Manor and will delve into the personal lives of the professors. Here’s his full statement:

Paramount+ has been adding a lot of movies lately, and one older film is surprisingly gaining popularity. Released in 2023, the action thriller Due Justice, starring Kellan Lutz, initially received poor reviews and didn’t attract much attention. However, after being added to Paramount+ over the weekend, it quickly became a hit, landing in the top 10 most-watched movies in the US, according to FlixPatrol.

Here is an overview of the game, via Grasshopper Manufacture:

The latest game coming to Xbox Game Pass on day one is Menace, a new sci-fi RPG developed by Overhype Studios and published by Hooded Horse. This is Overhype Studios’ second game and their first release since 2017’s Battle Brothers, a highly-rated tactical RPG. While Battle Brothers was set in a fantasy world, Menace takes place in a sci-fi setting, but it still shares the same turn-based tactical gameplay. Early signs suggest Overhype Studios has delivered another quality game.

A recent investigation, initially shared on X by the Kermitment Muppets podcast, suggests Disney may have used AI to create extra parts of the promotional images for the new Muppet Show. The report points out noticeable differences between the standard, wide-screen promotional image and the taller version seen on many digital platforms.

Okay, so I just finished watching His & Hers, and it’s really good! It’s based on a book by Alice Feeny and stars Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal. The story follows Anna, a journalist who’s been kind of isolating herself, and a murder back in her hometown pulls her out of that funk. She goes back to this small town called Dahlonega, and things get complicated because the detective investigating the murder is actually her estranged husband, Jack Harper. He’s instantly suspicious of why she’s back, and she ends up right in the middle of his investigation. It’s a really gripping watch!

I’m really loving how they’ve introduced the Hero of the South! It turns out this character was a huge deal before Himmel, basically setting everything up for his success. And it wasn’t all serious backstory either – we finally got to see Fern and Stark on a date, though it was pretty adorably awkward. After a few episodes that took their time with these kinds of stories, splitting things into two-part adventures, the group has reached a really important place. It feels like things are about to get much bigger and we’re finally going to see the story really hit its stride!

This upcoming show promises to be a major event. It’s scheduled to run for more than an hour and will include the latest news and information directly from developers around the world.
