Starting April 30, 2026, the animated film Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, starring Hugo Weaving, will no longer be available to stream on HBO Max, according to The Direct.
What started as an attempt to make a popular and uplifting movie has now become a large and public argument happening in Australia, Los Angeles, and all over the internet.
Some adaptations closely follow the original work – the first season of HBO’s The Last of Us is almost a direct recreation of the game. Others, however, drastically depart from it. Amazon’s Fallout series takes its own path, but still feels connected to the games. In contrast, Paramount’s Halo series shares very little with the games beyond the name and the look of the main character – it’s as if the creators only knew the cover art and guessed what the game might be about.
Production on a new Netflix film began on April 20, 2026, in Queensland, Australia. The movie will be directed by Jim Mickle, known for Sweet Tooth and Cold in July, and features an original story set during a long-running space war. Netflix says fans of the franchise and viewers can expect to see actors from shows and films like The White Lotus, Deadpool & Wolverine, and Dune: Part Three.
I’m a huge fan of ’90s anime, and I think it really changed everything! The best shows from that era weren’t afraid to break the mold and try completely new things with storytelling. They proved anime could be incredibly deep and complex, and honestly, a lot of them still hold up better than a lot of what’s being made today. They really captured my imagination and continue to do so!
Someone told Entertainment Weekly that the actress’s brief appearance was cut from the new movie for creative reasons. The cameo was originally planned to happen at the very beginning of the film.
Recently released photos and videos give fans a first glimpse of Season 3 of Wednesday as filming is underway. The new footage also reveals that the season is now being filmed in Paris, a change of scenery for the show.
But it sounds like The Mandalorian is headed in the right direction as he makes the transition to the big screen in the first Star Wars film released in six years, bringing back a beloved franchise trend. During MovieWeb’s recentset visit, select outlets and press were shown the opening footage of the movie. Thanks to this new look, we can confirm that The Mandalorian & Grogu will feature a classic opening crawl, reminiscent of all the mainline entries in the Skywalker Saga. This is an interesting choice, especially considering how other Star Wars films that have been released up to this point have not featured opening crawls.
As a huge DC fan, I was thrilled to see Frank Grillo—who’s been fantastic as Rick Flag Sr. since ‘Creature Commandos’—hint at when he’ll be filming for ‘Man of Tomorrow’! He put up a quick Instagram post saying he’s back in Atlanta for the next adventure, which definitely seems to mean filming is about to start. I’m really excited to see what they have planned for his character!
Below, I’ve chosen a noteworthy example from each year of the 1970s. It’s important to note that this list is subjective, and people will likely have different opinions. I’m not saying these are the best or most important examples, just that they’re all solid choices.
