Jude’s choice to use this technology highlights his dislike of AI “tools,” but also reveals his appreciation for the unique and sometimes flawed nature of human creativity. While AI may seem capable of endless creation, its results lack the depth and originality of the human mind. By revisiting Dracula, Jude implies that fully accepting both the best and worst aspects of humanity can defeat the emptiness of AI-generated content.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has faced some recent challenges, prompting significant changes to its upcoming movie plans as it looks to move in a new direction. One notable shift is a departure from a long-standing pattern the MCU previously followed when releasing films in the later part of the year.

Before the premiere of HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, creator Ira Parker shared plans to introduce a well-known villain from Game of Thrones into the prequel series. While the first season, debuting on January 18, 2026, will largely feature new characters, the show will eventually include figures established in George R.R. Martin’s Dunk & Egg stories.

After the events of Hazbin Hotel season one, Charlie Morningstar’s (Erika Henningsen) hotel in Hell is facing increased scrutiny and negative attention. Meanwhile, the powerful demon Vox (Christian Borle) is planning a public campaign to damage her reputation, and the implications of redemption actually working are causing problems for those in Heaven.

However, other streaming services also offer fantastic shows. Disney+ has Andor, Hulu features Reservation Dogs, and Prime Video presents I’m a Virgo.

The original Fletch from 1985 remains so popular largely because Chevy Chase was perfect as the witty journalist and detective, Irwin R. Fletcher. His performance is iconic and still referenced constantly. Chase is equally strong in Fletch Lives, and I firmly believe that. While the sequel’s script isn’t quite as memorable, the story is wonderfully absurd and entertaining.

Taylor Sheridan has been the key to Paramount’s success with its streaming service. He created and oversaw the incredibly popular series Yellowstone and built a whole collection of hit shows that have become central to the Paramount brand. Shows like 1883, 1923, Mayor of Kingstown, Lioness, Landman, and Tulsa King have all contributed to his reputation for creating high-quality television that appeals to both critics and a wide audience.

Brie Larson, who plays Captain Marvel, shared that Iman Vellani, the actress behind Ms. Marvel, essentially portrays herself within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Speaking at SpaceCon in San Antonio, Texas, Larson explained that Vellani has an incredible understanding of her character – and the entire MCU, it seems! – truly embodying the role both on and off screen. Larson also praised Vellani as a genuinely kind and delightful person to work with.

The premiere of ‘Welcome to Derry’ includes several appearances by turtles, a detail that’s actually quite important to the overall story. The first episode of HBO Max’s ‘IT’ prequel is finally here, and fans will find it was worth the wait.

The new DC Universe is already underway with three projects announced as part of the ‘Gods and Monsters’ lineup. However, many fans are still discussing the previous DC Extended Universe, and recent posts from Zack Snyder are keeping that conversation going. He just shared a picture of Ben Affleck in his Batman costume, which you can see below.
