Danny Boyle, the director of the original 28 Days Later, also directed 28 Years Later. Nia DaCosta then directed 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, with Alex Garland writing the scripts for both films. Although a third movie was planned, it’s currently on hold. Boyle recently told JoBlo that they simply didn’t have enough time to film it. However, production could potentially begin in 2027.
I’m a huge fan of Studio Ghibli – those films are just magical, often telling stories about growing up and how we connect with the natural world. But while they’re famous for fantasy, Ghibli also makes some really thoughtful movies for adults. Honestly, they’ve built up so much trust with viewers that they almost are a genre all their own! Still, as much as I love them, I think anime fans are missing out if they only focus on Ghibli. There’s a whole world of incredible, moving anime out there from other studios that deserves a look, too!
The dramatic murder at the end of season 1, and Rhaenyra’s reaction, led viewers to expect a war between the opposing factions in season 2. However, season 2 felt slow and stalled, constantly hinting at an upcoming conflict without actually delivering it. The season 2 finale again teased a war, and now, in season 3, House of the Dragon finally appears to be starting the battle everyone has been waiting for. This could potentially offer a different, and perhaps more satisfying, conclusion to the Targaryen story, echoing themes from Game of Thrones and offering a kind of resolution for Daenerys Targaryen.

The most memorable anime don’t just have characters who fill space – their interactions drive the entire story, impacting everything from the plot’s key moments to the emotional highs and lows, and even the action. While strong protagonists are important, truly great anime are defined by supporting characters who are just as compelling and vital to the narrative. Whether it’s a team, a club, or a family, these anime feature casts that are among the best ever created.
While SWAT was on the air, ratings sometimes dropped. Like many TV shows, it experienced normal fluctuations in viewership. However, SWAT, which premiered in 2017, faced extra challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Lockdowns and general uncertainty made it difficult to hold viewers’ attention, even among dedicated fans. The show’s high production costs, due to its many stunts and physical demands, combined with cast changes, led CBS to question whether continuing the series was financially worthwhile.
Felicia Hardy, best known as Black Cat, hasn’t had a significant live-action appearance beyond a brief, and somewhat weak, portrayal by Felicity Jones in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Aside from comics and the Marvel’s Spider-Man video game, fans haven’t seen much of the character, which is surprising considering her importance in the original stories. That needed to be addressed.
