Before the new thriller from Aaron Sorkin becomes the talk of the town this October, it’s essential to rewatch the movie that began it all. David Fincher’s 2010 film—highly acclaimed with eight Oscar nominations and a 96% rating on Rotten Tomatoes—is more than just a trip down memory lane. It’s a must-see. You really need to understand the events of the first movie – the beginnings in college, the high-stakes legal battles, and the devastating friendship that fell apart – to fully appreciate what’s at stake in the sequel.

Andy Serkis is directing a new film set in Middle-earth, The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, marking the first live-action movie in that world since The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies came out in 2014. The original screenwriters, Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, are writing the script, and Peter Jackson is producing. While details have been limited since the film was announced in 2024, Warner Bros. recently shared some information about it at CinemaCon 2026.

Before we start speculating about the time jump and new faces in Season 3, let’s recap the Season 2 finale of The Pitt. We’ll answer the biggest questions: Who abandoned Baby Jane Doe at the hospital? What did we discover about Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi)? How did Dr. Mohan bid farewell, and were our assumptions about Robby correct?

Robert Downey Jr. made a Tony Stark-style entrance at CinemaCon 2026 while wearing a Doom shirt.

Based on Jilly Cooper’s novel, Rivals is a period drama set in 1980s England. The series centers on the intense and long-standing conflict between Rupert Campbell-Black, a charismatic politician from a wealthy family, and Tony Baddingham, a fiercely competitive television executive. The first season showed their rivalry playing out at a local TV station, and the conflict continues in Season 2, as revealed in the new trailer. You can watch the trailer below.

At CinemaCon 2026, Chris Evans explained why he decided to reprise his role as Steve Rogers in the upcoming movie, Avengers: Doomsday. Disney’s presentation included Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige, directors Anthony and Joe Russo, Robert Downey Jr., and Evans himself. Evans clarified his return after previously stating he wasn’t involved in the film.

Lots of fantastic monster movies exist, and even if they don’t star a giant lizard, they’re usually worth checking out. However, before you see Godzilla Minus One, there are a few classic monster films everyone should experience at least once.

The Subspace Emissary stands out in the Super Smash Bros. series because of its cinematic storytelling, which truly made it feel like a crossover event—something the series hasn’t quite achieved since. It was a groundbreaking experience, and a bit of an oddity, within the Super Smash Bros. games, and it’s best understood by playing it yourself.

Many sci-fi shows focus on realism, scientific accuracy, and the complex effects of technology. From popular anime to hidden live-action treasures, they explore themes of space travel, artificial intelligence, and human vulnerability, often going even deeper than mainstream series. This approach creates shows that feel bolder, more believable, and more enjoyable. While The Expanse is often seen as the face of popular sci-fi, these 10 shows prove that truly thoughtful, ‘hard’ sci-fi is actually doing very well.

As a big fan of the show, I’ve learned that with The Pitt, no one is ever really secure – and it’s not just dramatic license! Because it’s a teaching hospital, characters are always moving on, whether it’s to a new facility or to specialize somewhere else. We’ve already seen this happen a couple of times. Tracy Ifeachor’s Dr. Heather Collins left to pursue a fellowship out of state, and now, after season two, Supriya Ganesh’s Dr. Samira Mohan is also leaving The Pitt. It definitely keeps things interesting, but it’s always sad to see good doctors go!
