Prepare yourself for the climactic fight that surpasses all fights within the Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Avengers face off against… The Enemy Faction.

Based on multiple industry sources, it appears that John Lithgow is close to finalizing a contract to portray the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, in HBO’s upcoming adaptation of the Harry Potter series.

The original film, “The Accountant,” performed well in cinemas, but truly resonated with audiences on home video and TV. So much so, that eight years later, we’re now seeing a sequel – either titled “The Accountant 2” or, as it appears on screen, “The Accountant Squared.” Isn’t that exciting?

Essentially, nearly every notable scene showcases Anthony Mackie as the latest Captain America. Post the occurrences in “Avengers: Endgame” and “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier,” Sam Wilson, who transitioned from paratrooper to social worker and eventually superhero, is now officially donning the Captain America mantle. This new role sets him on a collision course with another established Marvel character, Thunderbolt Ross, who has taken over as President of the United States in the MCU (portrayed by Harrison Ford, replacing the late William Hurt).

So I wouldn’t say G20 is a wildly novel idea — but it sure looks like a fun execution. This time Viola Davis is playing the President, who must save the day after terrorists kidnap pretty much every other world leader and hold them hostage at an international summit in South Africa.

In the 1950s, I was fortunate to witness the advent of color television, although it wasn’t commonplace yet. Color films certainly existed, but what truly brought a vibrant and lively touch to our daily lives were those moments when color TV seeped into our homes, making everything around us appear more vivid and energetic.
