Shyamalan’s 2008 film, The Happening, is a sci-fi horror movie starring Mark Wahlberg as a teacher trying to survive a deadly airborne virus with his wife. While widely considered one of the most criticized blockbusters of the 21st century, it’s surprisingly close to being another brilliant film from this often-overlooked director.
Marvel Studios hasn’t yet featured Gwen Stacy in its Spider-Man stories, meaning Tom Holland’s Peter Parker hasn’t met her. But according to Jeff Trammell, the showrunner for the Disney+ series Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, Gwen Stacy will appear in the show’s second season.
Being a great band frontman isn’t just about singing well. While a strong voice is crucial, it’s not the only thing that matters. There are many singers with technically better voices than Mick Jagger, but few could command a stage and energize a crowd quite like him.
Krysten Ritter will return as Jessica Jones in the later episodes of Daredevil: Born Again. This marks her first appearance in a Marvel Cinematic Universe project since her Netflix series, Jessica Jones, concluded in 2019 – almost seven years ago.
During his time as Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Tom Holland’s character has faced a series of increasingly challenging villains. These include Vulture (Michael Keaton) in Homecoming, the trickster Mysterio (Jake Gyllenhaal) in Far From Home, and ultimately a battle against multiple universes in No Way Home. That final fight brought back classic Spidey foes like Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), Doctor Octopus (Alfred Molina), Electro (Jamie Foxx), Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), and Lizard (Rhys Ifans).
The last two decades have seen a wealth of fantastic turn-based RPGs, many considered true classics. These games demonstrate that strategic, turn-based battles can be as engaging and difficult as fast-paced action combat, and the ability to carefully consider your options is key to success. Plus, they often feature compelling stories and characters that have become memorable parts of the RPG landscape.
The original Phantom comic was a game-changer for the industry. The character drew inspiration from classic adventure heroes like Tarzan and the Shadow, but also introduced many of the elements that would define the modern superhero – think Batman, Superman, and Captain America. In fact, The Phantom is considered the first costumed superhero to appear in a comic book. Writer Reginald Hudlin is well-versed in the world of superheroes, having written Black Panther for Marvel Comics from 2005 to 2008, making him a great fit for this adaptation.

Netflix has released a trailer for its new series, Mating Season, which will begin streaming on May 22nd. The first season will have ten episodes, and the trailer’s release date was intentionally scheduled to coincide with National Horny Day – yes, that’s a real holiday! The trailer makes it clear that the series is quite explicit.
Dr. Gregory House, the main character on the show, deliberately avoids wearing a white coat – a common symbol of doctorly authority and care. This isn’t just a fashion choice; House is more interested in solving medical mysteries than connecting with patients. He actively dislikes emotional interactions, and a traditional doctor’s coat would likely encourage them. According to Jacobs (as reported by TVLine and Monsters & Critics), the show’s creators specifically didn’t want to see the typical image of “white coats in the hallway” in their new medical drama, and this influenced House’s character design.
