In an interview with The Direct, Ivanna Sakhno (from Shin Hati) expressed her enthusiasm about working alongside Rory McCann, who’s stepping into the role of Baylan in Ahsoka Season 2 following Ray Stevenson’s passing. “I spend a lot of time with Rory these days,” she shared, “and he’s truly a joy to collaborate with. I won’t go into details about his performance, but let me tell you, he’s a real gem for our team. Honestly, there couldn’t have been a more suitable actor for this role.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a series of extraordinary events, or perhaps you could call them thunderous encounters, united Yelena Belova (played by Florence Pugh), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), Alexei Shostakov (David Harbour), Ava Starr (Hannah John-Kamen), and John Walker (Wyatt Russell). These former villains and antiheroes joined forces to combat Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and rescue Robert Reynolds (Lewis Pullman) from his malevolent persona. As they evolved into the New Avengers, these freshly minted superheroes have all been verified to reappear in Avengers: Doomsday. The events of Thunderbolts* serve as an ideal foundation for the grand crossover of Phase 6.

Currently, ComicBook offers an exclusive first look at the enlarged Amazing Spider-Man issue 11, which marks the 975th installment in its storied history. This remarkable comic book is brought to life by a star-studded creative team, with the main story penned by Joe Kelly and illustrated by John Romita Jr. and Pepe Larraz. In this special issue, readers will bear witness to the traumatic aftermath that Peter Parker endured following his abduction by Hellgate at the climax of their battle. The horrors he experienced are truly harrowing. As Spider-Man finds himself stranded far from home with no understanding of how to navigate this situation, it seems he may not even have the means to survive.

Prior to that, the second season of Gen V is set to air, which could potentially pose a challenge for The Boys. I found the first season to be an impressive expansion of the universe, but its continued existence, along with the possibility of additional spinoffs, seems at odds with what The Boys aims to accomplish. As a satire of superhero media, particularly the MCU, there’s a concern that it may become a caricature of what it parodies. Could it end up emulating the MCU, requiring viewers to brush up on prior installments before each new release?

My concerns about Gen V Season 2 specifically stem from its apparent setup for The Boys Season 5, but recent comments from Kripke have helped ease some of those apprehensions.

Redefining films with 4K upgrades and premium collector discs offers a thrilling aspect in today’s physical media era. Yet, it remains uncommon for classic movies to receive top-notch 4K treatment unless they already have a dedicated fanbase. Given that production companies and specialty labels aim to earn profits from these releases, there are always exceptions. Witnessing a film like Bill Paxton’s Frailty being granted such an exceptional 4K release offers hope for another era of movie discovery, where hidden gems may come to light.

The two collections exhibit a fascinating link, which can be most vividly demonstrated through Tetris Effect – a blend of the classic puzzle mechanics of Tetris and the visually and aurally captivating style synonymous with Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s works.

Initially, the game titled High On Life made its debut for Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC platforms, including Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store on December 13, 2022. Subsequently, it was released for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on July 22, 2023, and eventually on Nintendo Switch on May 6, 2025.

The game adheres closely to the initial 12 episodes of the 1982 animated series, often incorporating scenes directly from it. What I appreciate is that these anime segments aren’t polished or altered to blend with the contemporary visual style of the game; they retain their original graininess and color grading.
