After successfully reimagining the Evil Dead story, Lee Cronin turned his attention to another classic horror series: The Mummy. His The Mummy is a reboot of Universal’s long-running franchise – which started in 1932 with Lon Chaney – and leans heavily into horror, earning an R rating. While quite different from previous Mummy films, Cronin cleverly connected it to his Evil Dead universe. He revealed in an interview with Collider that a professor character in The Mummy shares a family name with characters from Evil Dead Rise.

It’s surprising to hear that Ryan Reynolds is stepping back from starring as Deadpool, given how much work went into bringing the character to the big screen. He spent years convincing studios to take a chance on the R-rated anti-hero and give him his own movie. However, ten years after the first Deadpool film, Reynolds has indicated he’s ready to share the spotlight, as he recently explained to Today.

Okay, let’s talk about Soldier Boy’s… extracurricular activities. He gets involved with Firecracker, and it’s quickly revealed this is less about attraction and more about a twisted attempt at revenge against his son. It’s a bit deflated when we learn Firecracker and Homelander weren’t close, though. But here’s where it gets interesting: fans are convinced this encounter has given Firecracker the virus that kills Supes, and she’s not going to survive. The theory is really taking off, and honestly, X user @b1ngbvag_ put it best in a post I saw – it’s a truly compelling, if disturbing, thought.

As a long-time Spider-Man fan, I’ve learned there are actually five official powers he has, but it’s strange – you almost never see them used in the comics anymore. Sometimes a writer will bring one back for a specific story, but that’s rare.

As a huge fan of The Lord of the Rings, I’ve always noticed a few things about Aragorn and the people of Men that just don’t quite add up. There are some real mysteries there! Luckily, with all the new Lord of the Rings projects coming out – especially The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, which seems like it’ll really focus on Aragorn – hopefully we’ll get some answers soon. But for now, let me share five things that still puzzle me about Aragorn and the race of Men in the movies.

Andrew Braund, a teaching assistant and former Pokémon collector, recently discovered a valuable treasure while cleaning out his childhood attic. He took his old Pokémon card collection to a friend’s shop, hoping to earn around £500 ($673). Instead, he found three incredibly rare Charizard cards! Initially valued at $20,000, the cards ultimately sold for $41,000 at Ewbank’s Auctions. Braund and his fiancée, Rachel Moseley, plan to use the money to fund their wedding.

I love getting into the Warhammer 40,000 universe, and honestly, I usually do it through the games – even though a lot of them are just okay. I’m a huge fan of Space Marine 2, which is easily one of the best Warhammer games out there, and Dawn of War was a massive part of my childhood. But what really grabs me are the weird, forgotten Warhammer games – the ones that aren’t perfect but still have a dedicated fanbase. I was so excited when one of those recently showed up on Steam, because I have a lot of good memories playing it when I was younger. Thankfully, it seems like the often-criticized Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior has aged well and is totally worth checking out in 2026, if you’re willing to forgive a few rough edges.

A few weeks ago, fans of the Persona series noticed some new merchandise appearing, and it seemed to heavily feature the very first two games.

Ever since 2023, there have been rumors about Resynced, a new game based on the popular 2013 action-adventure title. It was initially expected to release in November 2025, but the delay of Assassin’s Creed Shadows changed those plans. Further delays reportedly occurred after the publisher reorganized, and Jean Guesdon, a co-director on the original game, was put in charge of the franchise’s content.
