Given Pedro Pascal’s and Joel’s significant impact on the HBO adaptation of The Last of Us, I had anticipated that his death might be delayed until the end of season 2. Instead, it occurred at the close of episode 2, leaving me uncertain about any forthcoming plot points for this season or even The Last of Us season 3. Nevertheless, considering the narrative themes established by The Last of Us season 2 and particularly episode 2’s ending, I have some speculations regarding what may transpire for Ellie, Abby, Dina, and Tommy in the show’s future.
During a recent interview, Lee discussed the tough time he had filming the game sequences for Squid Game Season 3. He hinted that while all seasons were tough on him, the final game of the series proved to be the hardest. “As the episodes progress in the first season, it gets really challenging for Gi-hun, both physically and mentally,” Lee said. “I would say that the most difficult game I had to film was the last game of the first season, which is Squid Game.” He went on to mention that overall, the last round of Season 3 was the most challenging and difficult to shoot.
As a dedicated movie critic, I can attest that the original “Cars” (2006) was a groundbreaking film that stood out in a crowd due to its innovative concept and captivating character designs. It boasted a deeper moral narrative, much like other renowned Pixar productions, with Lightning McQueen’s transformation serving as a focal point. Thus, when the sequel to “Cars” was announced, anticipation ran high among fans eagerly awaiting the next installment in this celebrated series. However, when “Cars 2” (2011) hit theaters, despite its impressive box office performance, it received a mixed reception from critics, with some labeling it as the most disappointing Pixar sequel to date.
As per recent reports, Marvel’s announcement on April 25th about “The Fantastic Four” has set the initial timeline for the team in the opening film of Phase Six within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The report suggests that the one-shot titled “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” doesn’t depict their origin, but instead starts four years after they gained their heroic status. In other words, by the time the movie begins, The Fantastic Four will already be a well-established superhero team having acquired their powers four years prior.

The American indie film distributor GKIDS will manage the series’ theatrical distribution for a second time. With the upcoming season set to follow the “Cursed House” story arc and the “Evil Eye” arc, longtime fans are eagerly anticipating its release.
