Bruce Wayne isn’t returning to the tournament as Batman; instead, he’s being trapped in strange, fear-based illusions created by the Heart of Apokolips. These illusions show him alternate realities where each of his former Robins has become Batman. He’s already seen a changed Dick Grayson, and now he’s experiencing what Jason Todd is like as the Dark Knight. To escape, Bruce must confront these unsettling scenarios, which have now reached a point where he’s being combined with a famous villain.

Even with so much recycled content being made, many beloved fantasy movies from the 1990s haven’t been remade. Though some did get sequels that weren’t as good as the original, the original ideas are still strong enough to be updated for today’s audiences. These aren’t necessarily movies that need fixing, but rather solid concepts that could be fantastic if reimagined, offering a mix of familiar nostalgia and new creativity.

The latest PS5 system software update, version 25.08-12.40.00, is now available worldwide. This update is fairly minor, which is typical for PS5 updates – Sony usually releases bigger changes only a few times a year. This particular update focuses on improving the console’s performance and overall stability, which is the main goal of many of these smaller patches.

The Hollywood Reporter recently reported that Justin Lin, the director behind the Fast & Furious films, will be directing a live-action movie based on the video game Helldivers. However, the publication also confirmed that Lin is still working on the live-action adaptation of One-Punch Man. While no new information was revealed about the story or release date of the One-Punch Man film, it’s good to know Sony remains committed to the popular series by ONE. Hopefully, the anime version can improve its fortunes before the movie comes out.

Grace became a survivor in the first “Ready or Not” film by outsmarting the dangerous le Domas family and triggering the explosive demise of everyone involved, thanks to a deal with the sinister Mr. le Bail. But the trailer for the new sequel, Ready or Not: Here I Come, shows that her victory was just the beginning. The le Domas family was only part of a much larger, powerful group, and they’ve now targeted Grace as their ultimate prey.

When Avowed was first announced, people were really excited and comparing it to Skyrim, which is huge! But lately, with so many new RPGs coming out – like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – it hasn’t been talked about quite as much. Plus, it’s only coming to Xbox, so not everyone will be able to play it. Still, the developers at Obsidian have been working on it and planned a big update for fall 2025. Now they’ve announced that update, and the game itself, won’t be out until February 2026. As a fan, I’m a little disappointed about the delay, but hopefully, the extra time means they can really polish it and make it something special. It’s definitely still one of the RPGs I’m most looking forward to!

I’ve noticed the MCU hasn’t been as strong lately, and it feels like they’re trying to get back to the level of quality we saw in those first few phases. But honestly, 2026 looks amazing with Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday coming out! Still, there are some things they really need to fix, and it’s going to be harder to move past those issues because Stranger Things 5 is coming soon, and I think it’ll bring a lot of those old criticisms back into focus when the first part releases later this year.

It appears a developer was working on a reboot of either Legacy of Kain or Soul Reaver, but unfortunately, the project was cancelled at some point during development.

While promoting her new movie, Avatar: Fire and Ash, Zoe Saldaña revealed that saying goodbye to her character Neytiri will be more difficult than saying goodbye to Gamora. She explained that Neytiri was her first major role, and that first experience holds a special place in her heart. Saldaña feels Neytiri taught her so much and opened doors for her career, including getting noticed by directors James Gunn and J.J. Abrams. She considers her connection to Neytiri uniquely meaningful and the foundation for many opportunities.
