Zombie K-dramas are a popular genre, but many rely on the same tired tropes. Whether it’s a widespread apocalypse, like in Newtopia, or a virus outbreak as seen in Happiness, these shows usually center on a small group of people fighting to stay alive against waves of zombies or other monstrous creatures. However, the K-drama Gyeongseong Creature breaks from this pattern. It stands out with its detailed historical setting and strong cast, but its most impressive feature is a fresh take on the zombie virus itself.
According to Deadline, CBS is developing a new series connected to Fire Country. The currently unnamed show, like Fire Country and its first spin-off Sheriff Country, will be set in Edgewater. It’s planned as a medical drama, focusing on a team of doctors who work with the firefighters and law enforcement already featured in those shows. This approach is similar to NBC’s successful One Chicago franchise, which started with Chicago Fire and then added police and medical dramas (Chicago P.D. and Chicago Med respectively).
At the Warner Bros. presentation during CinemaCon on Tuesday night, DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran discussed the upcoming Supergirl and Clayface projects. He unveiled the very first teaser trailer for Clayface, describing it as a thrilling horror film directed by James Watkins.
Charlie Cox’s Daredevil has faced a lot of loss throughout his story.

In the world of hunters, there’s a huge gap between the strongest and the weakest. Top hunters are like celebrities with incredible power, while those at the bottom are often used as simple laborers or sacrifices. Despite facing the same dangers when entering portals, the weaker hunters in Solo Leveling consistently demonstrate they don’t have the strength or drive to be leaders.
The movie was originally scheduled for release on October 9th, but it was leaked online over the weekend. Animator Julia Schoel has since shared her reaction on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
