This film is based on the comic by Xianzhe Xu and features the legendary Yuen Woo-ping, a master of action cinema. He’s known for his work directing and choreographing fights in classics like Drunken Master, Fist of Legend, The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Kill Bill – films that have greatly influenced how fight scenes are made. Early reactions suggest he hasn’t lost his touch!

I’m so excited! Variety is reporting that David Chokachi – remember Cody from Baywatch? – is coming back! He’s going to reprise his role in the new Fox version of the show. He was a lifeguard for a few seasons back in the day, starting in season six, and now apparently he’s traded in his buoy for… owning a bar and grill! It’ll be fun to see what he’s been up to.

The hit series The Assassin is coming back for a second season! News from Deadline confirms that production will begin later this year, with Keeley Hawes and Freddie Highmore reprising their roles as Julie and Edward Green. Returning cast members also include Shalom Brune-Franklin and Devon Terrell. The new season will continue the thrilling story, blending elements of spy action, intense drama, and even a touch of unexpected romance – think James Bond meets Taken with a hint of Mamma Mia! – and details about the plot are now available.

Season 3 of Shrinking hasn’t been easy for anyone. Following some encouragement from his dad (Jeff Daniels) and Liz, Jimmy finally asked someone out – his first date since Tia passed away. Gaby began working with a new patient, but the woman was hesitant to open up, particularly after Gaby lost her temper. Liz and Derek faced challenges trying to help their son become more independent, and Sean reconnected with a former girlfriend.

Marvel first announced the X-Men would be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con. Since then, development on the X-Men movie has been moving forward, with a director in place and lots of talk about who might be cast. While Marvel usually titles movies after the main hero (like Iron Man or Captain America), a producer suggests the X-Men movie’s title might be different.

During the Puppy Bowl, DC Studios released a new trailer for the upcoming Supergirl movie. The trailer showed the most extensive look yet at the planet Krypton before it was destroyed, and included the first appearance of Krypto as a puppy. Fans also got their first look at live-action versions of Kara’s parents: Zor-El, played by David Krumholtz, and Alura In-Ze, played by Emily Beecham. Supergirl is scheduled to hit theaters on June 26th.

The third and final season of Fire Force really takes risks, building towards a possible end of the world as a devastating event seems more and more likely. While Fire Force has always been unique, its final episodes echo the intense, philosophical conclusion of Neon Genesis Evangelion. Season 3, Part 2 consists of 13 episodes that bring this excellent action series to a thrilling and satisfying finish.

The upcoming movie, Avengers: Doomsday, will heavily feature Thor, as seen in the recent teaser where he’s shown praying to Odin before a major battle. While Doomsday will be a significant part of Thor’s story, it seems it won’t be the end of it, potentially setting him up for a key role in the Secret Wars movie.

Even though critics weren’t impressed (it only scored 30% on Rotten Tomatoes), the action thriller Shadow Force actually resonated with audiences. Viewers gave it a strong 82% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, proving it succeeded in some way despite negative reviews.
