As someone who’s followed the Jujutsu Kaisen manga, especially the Culling Game arc, I already have a sense of what’s coming for Yuji Itadori – and honestly, it’s intense! The trailers for Season 3 really confirm that things are about to get dark. After everything that happened in Shibuya, the tension is through the roof, and it looks like a huge battle with Yuta Okkotsu is on the horizon. It’s got me totally on edge as a JJK fan, but the good news is we don’t have to wait much longer to see how it all plays out in the new episodes!

The first part of the series finale’s climactic battle with Vecna culminates in a brutal scene where Joyce Byers attacks and ultimately decapitates him with an ax. Jamie Campbell Bower, who played Vecna, recently shared in an interview with The Tonight Show that Vecna was originally intended to say “please don’t” as his final words, but this line was ultimately cut from the final version of the episode.

Released on January 1st, Shrek Forever After is now available to stream on Peacock. The 2010 film earned $756 million worldwide, making it DreamWorks’ fourth most successful movie ever. It’s the fourth and latest installment in the Shrek series, bringing back Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz as the voices of Shrek and his friends. In the movie, Shrek wishes he could be a “real” ogre again and makes a deal with the tricky Rumpelstiltskin. With almost the entire Shrek franchise now streaming in one place, fans can enjoy the films while they wait for Shrek 5; the only movie missing is the spin-off, Puss in Boots.

Okay, so everyone was talking about the issues with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, but honestly, it was still amazing. It got a 90 on Metacritic, which says a lot! The big open world, the awesome fighting, and being able to switch between Peter and Miles? That made it a really special superhero game, better than a lot of others out there. Now, with Marvel’s Wolverine, it sounds like they’re addressing the few things that held Spider-Man 2 back. That’s awesome because if they can fix those things, we’re looking at a game that could be even better than an already fantastic experience.

Playmates Toys recently unveiled the new Baboo figure as part of their Re-Ignition toyline, which is exciting for fans. Jason Barra shared photos from a visit to Playmates Headquarters last year, giving us a closer look. While showcasing the Baboo figure, the photos also reveal several unreleased figures on the left side, including Lord Zedd, the White Ranger, the Black Ranger, and a sneak peek at the Yellow Ranger. You can view the photos below.

A listing for a new Life is Strange game, titled Life is Strange: Reunion, recently appeared on the PEGI ratings website. Though Square Enix hasn’t officially announced it, the game reportedly follows Max Caulfield as she attempts to save a university from a devastating fire while reconnecting with her friend Chloe Price. While a release date wasn’t revealed, the listing (which has since been removed) suggests the game is planned for PS5.

Although Eleven seemingly died, Mike’s story about the Mage suggests her fate isn’t certain. The finale’s major losses were limited to the villains – Vecna and the Mind Flayer – and Kali, a character with limited screen time. Many fans anticipated the deaths of Steve Harrington, Dustin, or Hopper, but surprisingly, almost all the main and supporting characters survived and received happy endings. This outcome has received criticism, leading some to wonder if the expectation of character deaths stems from the impact of shows like Game of Thrones.

With Daredevil: Born Again preparing for its second season and already planning a third, Marvel should explore the Daredevil comics for fresh ideas. While some villains are too large in scope for the Disney+ show, connected to other heroes, or have already appeared in different capacities, many compelling enemies remain untapped. These villains are not only dangerous, but also offer exciting new story possibilities beyond the familiar conflicts with Kingpin, Bullseye, and The Hand.

As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Teagan Croft, known for her role in Titans, and Milo Manheim, from Disney’s Zombies, have been cast as Rapunzel and Flynn in the upcoming live-action Tangled. Both actors were considered top candidates for these roles. Now, Disney is focusing on finding someone to play the villain, Mother Gothel, a part previously intended for Scarlett Johansson before she had to withdraw due to other commitments.

Video game remakes and remasters, especially of titles from the 2000s, are becoming increasingly popular. This isn’t just about revisiting old favorites; many of these games had great ideas that couldn’t be fully realized with the technology of the time. Now, in 2026, developers are continuing to update these classics, and the year is off to a good start with the release of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined.
