As a lifelong Star Wars fan, I’ve seen the Force get… complicated. Originally, it felt pretty focused, but over time, they’ve added so many different powers to the official story. Some are incredibly obscure – like Mace Windu’s ability to find shatterpoints – and only appear once. And if you look back at the old Expanded Universe stuff, before Disney took over, there were tons of Force abilities that aren’t possible anymore, especially the crazy things Galen Marek could do in The Force Unleashed.
Inspired by James Clavell’s 1975 novel and a 1980 miniseries, Shōgun takes place in 17th-century Japan, following a power struggle among leaders after the emperor’s death. This visually stunning and exciting series offers a fresh take on the historical period.
Disney’s upcoming movie, Hexed, is directed by Josie Trinidad and Jason Hand. Hailee Steinfeld plays Billie, a young girl raised by a strict mother (Rashida Jones). Billie’s life changes when she discovers she has magical abilities and is transported to a fantastical world where she can truly be herself.
I’ve been a fan of Titus Welliver for ages! He’s amazing in everything he does – you probably recognize him from shows like Lost (as the Man in Black), Deadwood, Sons of Anarchy, The Equalizer, and especially as Harry Bosch in Bosch and Bosch: Legacy. Plus, he’s been in a bunch of Ben Affleck’s movies like Gone Baby Gone, The Town, Argo, and Live by Night. I’m so excited because his new movie, his first since wrapping up Bosch: Legacy, is finally hitting streaming soon!

Andy Weir, the author of Project Hail Mary, has revealed a new story set in the same universe as his popular novel and movie.

Amazon MGM Studios and Maze Theory are producing the game, and Weir himself is writing the story for it.
When Officer Farva gets engaged to Thorny’s sister in a ridiculously dramatic fashion, things quickly fall apart. The Super Troopers find themselves caught in the middle of Thorny’s plan to sabotage the relationship, all while trying to bust a dangerous new drug operation – and potentially save the wedding from disaster.
