Disney has given us one of its most successful live-action remakes with The Lion King, and they’re not letting go of this franchise anytime soon. Mufasa: The Lion King is coming to theatres just in time for Christmas, and Disney gave us a taste of things to come with a nostalgic first trailer.

The new promo clip takes us back to the past and chronicles the origin story of Simba’s father Mufasa. He’s an orphaned cub at the very start of the film, but things start looking up after he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka, who just happens to be the heir to a royal bloodline.

This chance encounter changes the course of Mufasa’s life, sending him on an expansive journey with an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny and working together to evade a threatening and deadly foe. 

Aaron Pierre will lead the voice cast as Mufasa, and he’ll be joined by a group of new and familiar faces. Donald Glover, Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, John Kani, and Beyoncé will reprise their roles from the 2019 remake of The Lion King, and they’ll be joined by Kelvin Harrison Jr., Tiffany Boone, Mads Mikkelsen, Thandiwe Newton, Lennie James, and Blue Ivy Carter in her feature film debut.

Mufasa: The Lion King will be a part of Disney’s holiday slate, and it’s hitting the theatres on December 20.

Now You See Me 3 has been stuck in development for years, but it turns out that Lionsgate has a few tricks left up its sleeve. This franchise is alive and kicking, after Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith, and Dominic Sessa were cast to play a new generation of illusionists.

The first two films in the Now You See Me series followed the adventures of the Four Horsemen, the illusionist quartet using their elaborate stage productions to pull off heists of epic proportions. Their journey will continue in the third film, which will also feature a group of magicians from a younger generation.

Lionsgate rounded out a pretty impressive group of young actors to join the cast, including Ariana Greenblatt (Barbie), Justice Smith (Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves), and Dominic Sessa (The Holdovers).

They’re expected to join the stars of the original two films, including Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Mark Ruffalo, and Morgan Freeman. The latest draft of the script was penned by Eric Warren Singer, Seth Graham Smith, and Mike Lesslie, with Ruben Fleischer on board to direct.

Now You See Me and Now You See Me 2 came out in 2013 and 2016, and earned nearly $700 million at the global box office.

The Screen Actors Guild Awards are Hollywood’s biggest celebration of performers who bring our favorite movies and series to life, and they returned to LA on Saturday night. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer and the FX series The Bear dominated the ceremony with three wins each.

Oppenheimer’s cast included some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, so it wasn’t a shocker to see it win the trophy for the outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture. Its stars Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. continued their winning sweep ahead of the Oscars, winning SAG Awards in their respective categories.

It was also a big night for the FX dramedy The Bear, the winner of the coveted award for outstanding performance by an ensemble in a comedy series. Its stars Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri repeated their Emmy and Golden Globes success, winning accolades for the best actor and actress in a comedy series.

The drama field brought several surprises our way, with the final season of Succession only walking away with the trophy for the outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama series. Despite sweeping all other major ceremonies, its stars Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook lost individual awards to Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us) and Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown).

Tennis can be a really dangerous game… at least according to the new trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers. Zendaya plays a former tennis pro, who must come to terms with her past after a love triangle from her youth comes to haunt her years later.

Set to the beat of Rihanna’s “S&M” and Nelly Furtado’s “Maneater”, the new trailer for Challengers captures the journey of the former tennis protégé Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), who decided to give coaching a shot after suffering a career-ending injury.

She helped her husband Art (Mike Faist) become a successful Grand Slam champion, but they’re forced to shift their strategy in the face of his losing streak. She decides to sign him up for a low-level Challenger event, where he must face his former best friend and Tashi’s ex Patrick (Josh O’Connor).

Challengers marks Guadagnino’s first film since Bones and All in 2022, and he co-wrote it alongside Justin Kuritzkes. Their next collaboration, the adaptation of William S. Burroughs’ short novel Queer, is also expected to come out later this year.

Challengers was initially chosen as the opening film of the 2024 Venice Film Festival, but MGM pushed its premiere date in the face of the SAG-AFTRA strike, and they’re now planning to release it on April 26.

It was just a matter of time before The Beatless got the high-profile biopic they deserved, and Sam Mendes is making it happen! The Oscar-winning filmmaker is developing not one, but four theatrical films inspired by each member of the record-breaking British band.

Mendes’ films aim to “tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history”, from their foundation to their breakup in 1970. This project is a historic first for the band because Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the families of John Lennon and George Harrison all agreed to give full life story and music rights to Mendes.

Mendes joined forces with Sony Pictures Entertainment to bring this project to life, and they’re planning to release all four films in 2027. The studio described its release strategy as “innovative and groundbreaking”, but they’re yet to share the exact details.

“Pairing [Mendes’] premiere filmmaking team, with the music and the stories of four young men who changed the world, will rock audiences all over the globe. We are deeply grateful to all parties and look forward ourselves to breaking some rules with Sam’s uniquely artistic vision,” said Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group’s CEO Tom Rothman.

The Beatless made music together for a single decade between 1960 and 1970, but that didn’t stop them from going down in history as one of the most influential rock bands of all time. They shared several unreleased tracks following their breakup, including last year’s “Now and Then”.

Oppenheimer emerged as the top winner at several major ceremonies this award season, and its domination continued at the BAFTAs. Christopher Nolan’s atomic bomb epic came into the night with 13 nominations and ended up taking seven trophies home, including the best film prize.

Oppenheimer was competing against Anatomy of a Fall, The Holdovers, Killers of the Flower Moon, and Poor Things in the coveted best picture field, and managed to beat them all to take the ceremony’s main award home.

After a lot of rumors about a potential The Fantastic Four reboot, Marvel is officially making it happen. This highly-anticipated superhero flick will hit the theatres on July 25, 2025, and we’re here to introduce you to its newly-announced, fantastic cast.

Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic

Pedro Pascal needs no special introduction because he’s one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood right now. The star of the hit shows The Mandalorian and Last of Us also appeared in films Kingsman: The Golden Circle and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, and will soon be seen in Ridley Scott’s Gladiator 2.

Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman

Vanessa Kirby has been pretty busy since getting her big break for playing the young Princess Margaret on The Crown. She went on to win a Volpi Cup and receive an Oscar nod Pieces of a Woman, in addition to starring in Mission: Impossible franchise and Napoleon.

Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch

Joseph Quinn won us over as lovable metalhead Eddie Munson on the fourth season of Stranger Things. He went on to land roles in several promising blockbusters, including A Quiet Place: Day One and Gladiator 2, alongside Pascal.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm aka the Thing

Ebon Moss-Bachrach is fresh off winning an Emmy and Golden Globe for playing Richie Jerimovich on The Bear. His “overnight success” was decades in the making, and we’ve seen him play small roles in such films as Mona Lisa Smile, Higher Ground, and No Hard Feelings.

James Gunn and Peter Safran have been looking for DCU’s new Supergirl for quite some time, and their search is finally over! House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock crushed her audition and defeated tough competition to be cast as the next Supergirl.

Alcock emerged as one of the main contenders for the role of Clark Kent’s Kryptonian cousin Kara Zor-El, and defeated the likes of Emilia Jones and Meg Donnelly to win this role. She’s no stranger to carrying high-profile franchises on her shoulders—after all, she got her big break with the role of the young Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of the Dragon.

James Gunn confirmed her casting on social media, and described her as “a fantastically talented young actor.” He added that he was blown away by her auditions and screen tests for Supergirl and said she perfectly embodies Kara Zor-El.

Alcock is expected to portray this character in Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, written by Ana Nogueira, but she’ll make appearances in another DC project before leading her own standalone movie. Gunn and Safran will launch their new DC Universe with Superman: Legacy, led by David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, but it remains unclear if Alcock will also make her debut in this film.

Disney has given us one of its most successful live-action remakes with The Lion King, and they’re not letting go of this franchise anytime soon. Mufasa: The Lion King is coming to theatres just in time for Christmas, and Disney gave us a taste of things to come with a nostalgic first trailer.

The new promo clip takes us back to the past and chronicles the origin story of Simba’s father Mufasa. He’s an orphaned cub at the very start of the film, but things start looking up after he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka, who just happens to be the heir to a royal bloodline.

This chance encounter changes the course of Mufasa’s life, sending him on an expansive journey with an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny and working together to evade a threatening and deadly foe. 

Aaron Pierre will lead the voice cast as Mufasa, and he’ll be joined by a group of new and familiar faces. Donald Glover, Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, John Kani, and Beyoncé will reprise their roles from the 2019 remake of The Lion King, and they’ll be joined by Kelvin Harrison Jr., Tiffany Boone, Mads Mikkelsen, Thandiwe Newton, Lennie James, and Blue Ivy Carter in her feature film debut.

Mufasa: The Lion King will be a part of Disney’s holiday slate, and it’s hitting the theatres on December 20.

Now You See Me 3 has been stuck in development for years, but it turns out that Lionsgate has a few tricks left up its sleeve. This franchise is alive and kicking, after Ariana Greenblatt, Justice Smith, and Dominic Sessa were cast to play a new generation of illusionists.

The first two films in the Now You See Me series followed the adventures of the Four Horsemen, the illusionist quartet using their elaborate stage productions to pull off heists of epic proportions. Their journey will continue in the third film, which will also feature a group of magicians from a younger generation.

Lionsgate rounded out a pretty impressive group of young actors to join the cast, including Ariana Greenblatt (Barbie), Justice Smith (Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves), and Dominic Sessa (The Holdovers).

They’re expected to join the stars of the original two films, including Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Mark Ruffalo, and Morgan Freeman. The latest draft of the script was penned by Eric Warren Singer, Seth Graham Smith, and Mike Lesslie, with Ruben Fleischer on board to direct.

Now You See Me and Now You See Me 2 came out in 2013 and 2016, and earned nearly $700 million at the global box office.

The Screen Actors Guild Awards are Hollywood’s biggest celebration of performers who bring our favorite movies and series to life, and they returned to LA on Saturday night. Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer and the FX series The Bear dominated the ceremony with three wins each.

Oppenheimer’s cast included some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, so it wasn’t a shocker to see it win the trophy for the outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture. Its stars Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. continued their winning sweep ahead of the Oscars, winning SAG Awards in their respective categories.

It was also a big night for the FX dramedy The Bear, the winner of the coveted award for outstanding performance by an ensemble in a comedy series. Its stars Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri repeated their Emmy and Golden Globes success, winning accolades for the best actor and actress in a comedy series.

The drama field brought several surprises our way, with the final season of Succession only walking away with the trophy for the outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama series. Despite sweeping all other major ceremonies, its stars Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook lost individual awards to Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us) and Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown).

Tennis can be a really dangerous game… at least according to the new trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers. Zendaya plays a former tennis pro, who must come to terms with her past after a love triangle from her youth comes to haunt her years later.

Set to the beat of Rihanna’s “S&M” and Nelly Furtado’s “Maneater”, the new trailer for Challengers captures the journey of the former tennis protégé Tashi Duncan (Zendaya), who decided to give coaching a shot after suffering a career-ending injury.

She helped her husband Art (Mike Faist) become a successful Grand Slam champion, but they’re forced to shift their strategy in the face of his losing streak. She decides to sign him up for a low-level Challenger event, where he must face his former best friend and Tashi’s ex Patrick (Josh O’Connor).

Challengers marks Guadagnino’s first film since Bones and All in 2022, and he co-wrote it alongside Justin Kuritzkes. Their next collaboration, the adaptation of William S. Burroughs’ short novel Queer, is also expected to come out later this year.

Challengers was initially chosen as the opening film of the 2024 Venice Film Festival, but MGM pushed its premiere date in the face of the SAG-AFTRA strike, and they’re now planning to release it on April 26.

It was just a matter of time before The Beatless got the high-profile biopic they deserved, and Sam Mendes is making it happen! The Oscar-winning filmmaker is developing not one, but four theatrical films inspired by each member of the record-breaking British band.

Mendes’ films aim to “tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history”, from their foundation to their breakup in 1970. This project is a historic first for the band because Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the families of John Lennon and George Harrison all agreed to give full life story and music rights to Mendes.

Mendes joined forces with Sony Pictures Entertainment to bring this project to life, and they’re planning to release all four films in 2027. The studio described its release strategy as “innovative and groundbreaking”, but they’re yet to share the exact details.

“Pairing [Mendes’] premiere filmmaking team, with the music and the stories of four young men who changed the world, will rock audiences all over the globe. We are deeply grateful to all parties and look forward ourselves to breaking some rules with Sam’s uniquely artistic vision,” said Sony Pictures Motion Picture Group’s CEO Tom Rothman.

The Beatless made music together for a single decade between 1960 and 1970, but that didn’t stop them from going down in history as one of the most influential rock bands of all time. They shared several unreleased tracks following their breakup, including last year’s “Now and Then”.

Oppenheimer emerged as the top winner at several major ceremonies this award season, and its domination continued at the BAFTAs. Christopher Nolan’s atomic bomb epic came into the night with 13 nominations and ended up taking seven trophies home, including the best film prize.

Oppenheimer was competing against Anatomy of a Fall, The Holdovers, Killers of the Flower Moon, and Poor Things in the coveted best picture field, and managed to beat them all to take the ceremony’s main award home.

Nolan was finally honored with his first best director BAFTA, while the film’s stars Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. won acting awards for their respective performances. Oppenheimer also emerged as the leader in several technical fields, including best cinematography, editing, and original score.

After a lot of rumors about a potential The Fantastic Four reboot, Marvel is officially making it happen. This highly-anticipated superhero flick will hit the theatres on July 25, 2025, and we’re here to introduce you to its newly-announced, fantastic cast.

Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic

Pedro Pascal needs no special introduction because he’s one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood right now. The star of the hit shows The Mandalorian and Last of Us also appeared in films Kingsman: The Golden Circle and The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, and will soon be seen in Ridley Scott’s Gladiator 2.

Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman

Vanessa Kirby has been pretty busy since getting her big break for playing the young Princess Margaret on The Crown. She went on to win a Volpi Cup and receive an Oscar nod Pieces of a Woman, in addition to starring in Mission: Impossible franchise and Napoleon.

Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch

Joseph Quinn won us over as lovable metalhead Eddie Munson on the fourth season of Stranger Things. He went on to land roles in several promising blockbusters, including A Quiet Place: Day One and Gladiator 2, alongside Pascal.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm aka the Thing

Ebon Moss-Bachrach is fresh off winning an Emmy and Golden Globe for playing Richie Jerimovich on The Bear. His “overnight success” was decades in the making, and we’ve seen him play small roles in such films as Mona Lisa Smile, Higher Ground, and No Hard Feelings.

James Gunn and Peter Safran have been looking for DCU’s new Supergirl for quite some time, and their search is finally over! House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock crushed her audition and defeated tough competition to be cast as the next Supergirl.

Alcock emerged as one of the main contenders for the role of Clark Kent’s Kryptonian cousin Kara Zor-El, and defeated the likes of Emilia Jones and Meg Donnelly to win this role. She’s no stranger to carrying high-profile franchises on her shoulders—after all, she got her big break with the role of the young Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of the Dragon.

James Gunn confirmed her casting on social media, and described her as “a fantastically talented young actor.” He added that he was blown away by her auditions and screen tests for Supergirl and said she perfectly embodies Kara Zor-El.

Alcock is expected to portray this character in Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, written by Ana Nogueira, but she’ll make appearances in another DC project before leading her own standalone movie. Gunn and Safran will launch their new DC Universe with Superman: Legacy, led by David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, but it remains unclear if Alcock will also make her debut in this film.
