As a huge FFXIV fan, I’m so excited! It looks like we won’t have to wait much longer for new content because Square Enix just announced the next big expansion! It’s called Evercold, and they revealed it at Fan Fest 2026. GamesRadar reported that it’s currently planned for a January 2027 release, though we don’t have an exact date just yet.
Those three suggestions came at just the right time, coinciding with the release of the new trailer for Ben Stiller’s Focker In-Law, the first look at Avengers: Doomsday shown at CinemaCon in 2026, and Spider-Man: No Way Home becoming available on Disney+. This week, I intentionally left out any superhero films. After featuring two last weekend, it’s good to offer something different.

A 26-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly leaking the upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender film, according to The Straits Times. His name hasn’t been released yet. The leak happened several months before the film is scheduled to debut on Paramount+.
A look at Netflix’s most popular movies reveals a clear trend. Many of the streamer’s top 10 films are action thrillers, like Red Notice, Carry-On, Back in Action, and The Gray Man. These movies all share a common formula: they combine exciting action with well-known actors.
I recently spoke with creator David Stassen, and he’s really excited about seeing Cam’s dynamic with Isla Gordon and her family this season. Now that Cam’s out of rehab, Stassen wanted to explore their relationship more directly. But the big question for him and the writing team wasn’t if Cam would be a villain, but how villainous he’d become, and just how quickly that side of him would emerge.
Although Gladiator II didn’t quite reach the same level of excellence as the first Gladiator, that’s a tough act to follow. The original Gladiator was a remarkable film, combining outstanding performances, a grand story, and a special mix of practical and visual effects—a combination that hasn’t been replicated in the 26 years since its release.
