Christopher Nolan, winner of an Oscar for directing, is preparing to work again with Universal Pictures on a new film, scheduled for release in Imax cinemas on July 17, 2026.

Recently, Saoirse Ronan shared some intriguing insights during an episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast about Ryan Gosling’s decision to step away from Peter Jackson’s film adaptation of “The Lovely Bones,” which hit theaters back in 2009. As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia and a twinge of sadness when I think about Gosling’s exit, even though it was a moment that left me heartbroken back then.

This fall, we’ll witness the live-action version of “Oshi no Ko” unfold across both a TV series and a movie. Building upon the triumph of “Oshi no Ko Season 2,” which concluded this past summer, the cherished franchise is expanding with innovative live-action spin-offs that promise to reimagine the original manga in a captivating way.

It’s clear that we all cherish the initial Star Wars trilogy. George Lucas’ innovative perspective shaped the space opera genre and produced timeless movies that will continue to captivate us. However, recall the reaction when the Prequel Trilogy debuted? Yes, by the time Revenge of the Sith was released, fans felt more content with the plot, but do you remember the wave of criticism that hit Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace when it first premiered?

Every October, Krispy Kreme introduces a fresh collection of autumn-themed doughnuts, all fitting the spooky atmosphere.

The four doughnuts displayed below showcase recognizable Ghostbusters imagery.

For over 8 decades, various portrayals of the Joker have enriched his mythos. One particularly striking depiction was Heath Ledger’s “Glasgow smile” in “The Dark Knight,” a chilling twist on the villain’s signature grin. However, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Todd Phillips almost had Joaquin Phoenix’s character adopt the same scar in his Joker movie, but Christopher Nolan, director of the Dark Knight trilogy, intervened, believing that element should be exclusive to Ledger’s portrayal. In the upcoming “Joker: Folie a Deux,” they’ve reintroduced the Glasgow smile, but not on Arthur Fleck this time.

365 Days To The Wedding, based on Tamiki Wakaki’s manga, has now been brought to life as an anime.

Warner Bros., the company that owns DC Comics characters, aimed to emulate Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) success by creating their own interconnected movie universe, initially known as the DCEU. Despite its potential, star-studded cast, and some truly exceptional films, the DCEU was fated for an early demise due to a series of poor decisions and missteps throughout its development.

How does one surpass an exceptional movie like the seven-time Oscar winner, “Oppenheimer”, which was also a Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and box office hit? This is a challenge that Christopher Nolan, its director, must now confront. However, we can only speculate on his plans to match such success. It appears that Mr. Nolan is returning to Universal Studios in 2026 to potentially recreate the cinematic magic of their partnership. Additionally, there are rumors that Matt Damon, who starred in “Oppenheimer” and “Interstellar”, might rejoin him for this upcoming project.
