As a huge Marvel fan, I always loved how Marvel Studios treated Stan Lee, letting him have a blast with all his fun cameos.

The manga series Baki The Grappler is known for featuring real-life people as characters. Throughout the story, Yujiro Hanma, Baki’s father, has met numerous famous figures, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and George W. Bush. Recently, he had a contentious meeting with President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Quentin Tarantino, the director of Django Unchained, has a well-known fascination with feet, even famously focusing on Margot Robbie’s feet in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Although Tarantino has spoken out against the discussions surrounding this, it seems those who work with him feel differently. Actress Maya Hawke recently shared advice her mother, Uma Thurman (who often collaborates with Tarantino), gave her before filming one of his movies:
Robert Pattinson will reprise his role as Batman in The Batman 2. However, James Gunn is planning to cast a new actor to play Bruce Wayne for The Brave and the Bold movie within the DC Universe. On the animation side, Hamish Linklater will once again voice Batman in season 2 of Batman: Caped Crusader, and a four-part adaptation of Knightfall is also planned. Before these projects, fans can expect a uniquely styled animated Batman series in 2025.
The game was originally released on the PS3 and was generally liked. It let players experience the story from two different perspectives – playing as either the ‘good’ or ‘evil’ side – and had a solid selection of characters to choose from.
