We now have a longer look at the A24/Apple TV+ subscriptiontitle (which debuts in theaters on August 15th), and the remake to Akira Kurosawa’s High and Low appears to be worth the wait. Showing us Washington’s record mogul David King seemingly on top at the start, sour notes start to land in his life before you know it. Which is the total opposite of the vibe you’ll get from reading Spike Lee’s Instagram caption, shared below:

This piece delves into the chronology, responses, and consequences of this unusual crossroads between the film industry and politics.

During an interview with GQ magazine during the promotional tour for his latest film, “The Naked Gun”, Liam Neeson expressed his dislike for how his character was killed off in “Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace” from 1999.

Currently, Superman is gracing the screens in cinemas across the United States. This film, helmed by Gunn, is a production of DC Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures. The main character, played by David Corenswet, is our titular superhero. Rachel Brosnahan takes on the role of Lois Lane, while Nicholas Hoult portrays Lex Luthor, with additional notable actors contributing as well.

While The Late Show with Stephen Colbert hasn’t officially begun its final season yet, set to start during the 11th season, many viewers are speculating whether or not Stephen Colbert will continue hosting for an entire year following the controversial decision to cancel. This recent acting role might hint at his current feelings, but regardless of that, I’m eager to see what he does next.

On set during filming in Glasgow, teams strategically placed several vehicles that resembled military models adorned with a red devil emblem. This symbol is strikingly similar to the insignia used by the fictional criminal organization known as the Inner Demons, which is controlled by the villain Mister Negative from Marvel Comics and Insomniac’s Spider-Man video games.

In its second weekend in U.S. cinemas, Marvel Studios’ The Fantastic Four: First Steps generated $40 million, marking a 66% drop from its opening weekend earnings of $117.6 million. On Friday, the film grossed $11.7 million, followed by $15.5 million on Saturday and $12.8 million on Sunday, playing in 4,125 theaters. The movie’s domestic earnings now total $198.4 million after ten days. Imax venues accounted for $5.2 million or 13% of the weekend’s takings, raising its Imax earnings to $26.3 million (as reported by Deadline).

Since Skyler Gisondo landed the role of Jimmy Olsen, I’ve been eagerly anticipating his appearance in Superman, and it didn’t disappoint when he stole several of the scenes. Interestingly, the internet had a rather delightful reaction to Jimmy’s charm and knack for winning over women, resulting in amusing viral posts like this one from @zoerosebryant:

Robert Downey Jr. shared an enjoyable video on his Instagram featuring him strolling along a beach in the morning. The tune accompanying the clip is his son, Indio Downey’s, song titled “Change of Scenery.” In the post, the Iron Man actor wrote, “What’s your summer change of scenery? Mine = early-morning beach walk. Yours = ??” You can watch the entire video below:

Robert Downey Jr. posted a cheerful Instagram video showing him taking a leisurely stroll on the beach in the morning hours. The song playing throughout is his son, Indio Downey’s, track called “Change of Scenery.” In the caption, the Avengers star posed the question, “What’s your summer change of scenery? Mine = early-morning beach walk. Yours = ??” Take a look at the full video below:

Both versions convey the same information in a slightly different way, maintaining clarity and readability.

As a fan, I appreciate how the DCEU paved the way for these iconic characters, but what excites me most is James Gunn’s acknowledgment that the narrative moving forward will redefine certain aspects of those characters, specifically from “The Suicide Squad” and “Peacemaker,” offering a fresh perspective on their stories.
