I’ve been so hooked on these psychological thrillers lately! It all started when Peacock’s All Her Fault became a huge success, and now everyone’s jumping on the bandwagon. I was really surprised to see Apple TV get involved, but even more shocked when Netflix’s version of His & Hers actually knocked Stranger Things off the number one spot! And then 56 Days on Prime Video did the same – it’s amazing how popular this genre has become.

I was reading an interview with Taron Egerton in Rolling Stone AU/NZ, and he was really direct when they asked him about the possibility of becoming the next James Bond. He didn’t beat around the bush at all – he gave a pretty honest answer!

This documentary features incredible footage of Elvis Presley performing at his peak, taken from Warner Bros.’ archives stored in a Kansas salt mine.

Christian Bale recently told Jake Hamilton he’ll be returning to Chicago shortly to film “Heat 2,” the sequel to the popular crime thriller. Leonardo DiCaprio is also expected to star in the movie.

The first season of the show featured Cate (Anna Sawai) and Kentaro Randa (Ren Watabe), who discovered they were half-siblings through their father, Hiroshi (Takehiro Hira). Their mother, Keiko (Mari Yamamoto), was a key scientist for Monarch, but she disappeared for decades. Back in the late 1950s, Keiko studied Titans with young Bill Randa (Anders Holm) and Lee Shaw (Wyatt Russell) before getting lost in a strange place called Axis Mundi—a hidden world between our world and the Hollow Earth where time works differently. She eventually returned, seemingly after very little time had passed.
