Attendees at Warner Bros.’ CinemaCon presentation on Tuesday were the first to see the opening seven minutes of their new movie. Thanks to reports from those present, we can now share a detailed description of the exciting action teased in the footage. See the description below.
Here is an overview of the game, via its store pages:
At CinemaCon, Warner Bros. Discovery showed a new fight scene from the upcoming movie featuring Johnny Cage and Baraka. The scene starts with a face-off between Liu Kang and Baraka, but Johnny Cage quickly gets involved due to his boasting. The fight begins, and Cage runs into a tent full of children who all resemble Baraka. When Baraka follows him inside, the children immediately reveal Cage’s location.
Although the preview footage probably won’t be released publicly – previews from CinemaCon rarely are – reports from journalists who saw it describe a scene that gives a clearer picture of Milly Alcock’s Supergirl and the large-scale adventure her story involves.
Learning about Hagrid reveals inconsistencies in his life story. Many details, from his childhood to his role in Harry’s adventures, don’t quite make sense if you look closely. These issues are subtle and easy to miss initially, but they become apparent with further consideration.
The fifth episode of Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 shows the aftermath of Bullseye’s attack on Fogwell’s Gym and what seemed like Vanessa’s death. However, she didn’t die immediately, briefly recovering before ultimately succumbing to her injuries, which sets the stage for a dramatic season finale. This near-death experience brought back both Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) and Kingpin’s former right-hand man, Wesley (Toby Leonard Moore), who Karen Page killed in Season 1 of Daredevil.
The scene opens with quick cuts between a badly injured man, his face covered in bandages, and the character Matt Hagen, played by Tom Rhys Harries. The injuries are quite graphic – at one point, you can see he’s missing an eyelid. As the scene continues, Hagen’s face begins to distort and melt as he battles to control his newfound abilities. We then get a quick glimpse of Clayface’s complete form, including his signature spiky fist and melting features – a brief but promising preview of what DC has planned.
Warner Bros. announced the cast for the upcoming film, Lord of the Rings: The Hunt For Gollum, on Tuesday. Elijah Wood will reprise his role as Frodo Baggins, and Kate Winslet will join the cast as Marigol. Andy Serkis will return as Gollum and Smeagol, alongside Ian McKellen as Gandalf, Leo Woodall as Halvard, and Lee Pace as Thranduil. Most notably, Jamie Dornan has been cast as Strider, taking over the role previously held by Viggo Mortensen.
PRAGMATA will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC (via Steam) globally on April 17th. The Switch 2 version will launch in Japan on April 24th.
It’s tough to stay good when a book series gets beyond just a few installments, but truly impressive authors can keep a series interesting even after ten books or more. Some popular series, like Raymond E. Feist’s Riftwar Cycle and Terry Goodkind’s Sword of Truth, almost achieve this, but readers often feel they lose steam or become predictable. Other series have dips in quality but recover enough to make finishing worthwhile. The most successful long-running fantasy series, however, consistently deliver compelling stories, proving that a great thing can indeed last.
