He might record another live album after he completes his European tour in 2026. If you’re hoping to see him perform, you could plan a vacation to Europe – London would be a particularly good place to start looking for tickets.
The huge success of Game of Thrones really changed fantasy TV. Before that show, traditional fantasy was much more common, and darker, grittier fantasy was more of a niche interest. But Game of Thrones flipped that around. Personally, I tend to prefer these darker, more cynical fantasy shows, although I do enjoy a lighthearted fantasy story now and then. I know, though, that a lot of people feel the opposite way.
Both Slow Horses and The Night Manager offer a realistic look at the world of espionage, a departure from typical, over-the-top spy stories. Slow Horses is famous for its dark and cynical portrayal of intelligence work, while The Night Manager shares its focus on flawed characters haunted by their pasts. Although the shows seem different on the surface – one follows disgraced agents, the other a hotel manager drawn into espionage – they both present spies who are far from perfect heroes.
I’ve been really getting into Resident Evil Requiem, and it feels like the developers really leaned into what made the Resident Evil 2 remake so awesome. Plus, it definitely builds on the story and feel of Resident Evil 4, which, let’s be honest, is a fan favorite. By the time Leon’s back in Requiem, we’ve already had two games setting the stage for this version of him, so you’re already invested.
As a sci-fi fan, I’m really hooked on Apple TV+’s For All Mankind. It takes a fascinating ‘what if?’ approach to history, imagining how different choices could have dramatically changed the future. The show focuses on a consistent effort to colonize the moon, and eventually Mars, and honestly, it reminds me a lot of The Expanse. Both shows really explore that same kind of future – a future where humanity has expanded beyond Earth and is actively building a life amongst the stars. It’s cool to see that similar vision playing out in For All Mankind.
Okay, so Taylor just dropped some tour dates for 2026, and it looks like most of them are happening in June and July. But honestly, there are only two shows in the US! The first one is at BottleRock on May 23rd, which is awesome, and the other is part of a concert series out in Pennsylvania. I’m hoping she adds more US dates, but for now, those are the only two I know about!
Niki is a highly skilled piano tuner working for New York City’s wealthiest residents. However, his unique talent extends to cracking safes, and he soon finds himself involved in a series of robberies that quickly escalate. “Tuner,” which premiered at the 2025 Telluride Film Festival, will be released in theaters just in time for Memorial Day.
Movie theaters have been facing unpredictable attendance lately, putting a lot of focus on new films in 2026. Luckily, the first half of the year has seen some big successes, and several promising blockbusters are scheduled for the summer. Films that were expected to do well are actually exceeding predictions, which suggests that overall box office numbers are starting to stabilize.
Shows about the end of the world and its consequences are becoming increasingly popular, with critically acclaimed series like Prime Video’s Fallout and Apple TV’s Foundation. HBO’s The Last of Us, created by the same mind behind Chernobyl, is another success story. But one often-overlooked sci-fi show from this trend brilliantly combines the setting of The Last of Us with the epic scope of HBO’s Game of Thrones.
At the end of Daredevil: Born Again season 2, Daredevil successfully pressured Wilson Fisk into stepping down from his position, giving up his American citizenship, and leaving the country. However, Matt Murdock himself was arrested and sent to prison, which will be the starting point for the show’s third season, currently being filmed. The comics have previously explored Murdock’s imprisonment, and season 3 of Daredevil: Born Again is expected to draw inspiration from several different comic book storylines.
