The Fantastic Four hold the title of Marvel Comics’ original “First Family,” and their MCU debut has been eagerly anticipated following a pair of mid-2000s films with mediocre reception and a failed 2015 reboot. Marvel enthusiasts have remained hopeful for the iconic team to join the MCU, and now, their wait is finally over. At this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios unveiled an exclusive sneak peek trailer for The Fantastic Four: Beginnings, marking the start of film production on July 30, immediately following SDCC.

Among the uncertain fates of DC properties and projects following WB and Discovery’s merger and DC Studios’ universe reboot, I was most hopeful that Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” would carry on. This gritty film about Gotham City had already produced a sequel and a spin-off series in development. Fortunately, neither project was canceled, and the spin-off series, titled “The Penguin,” is almost ready to premiere. In this storyline, Colin Farrell’s Oz Cobblepot struggles for control in Gotham’s criminal realm. Expect clashes between gangsters and henchmen as power plays unfold.

But then, during the “Lower Decks” panel, Paramount dropped a bombshell announcement that left me absolutely gobsmacked!

Some “Star Trek” fans are disappointed because they expected Michelle Yeoh’s character, Emperor Philippa Georgiou, from “Discovery,” to have her own spinoff series. Instead, she will only appear in a movie. Fans were looking forward to following her character for an extended period, but now it will be limited to just one film. However, there is good news on the horizon. During this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Paramount+ and CBS Studios unveiled the first teaser trailer for “Star Trek: Section 31.” The trailer has received rave reviews, and it’s possible that Georgiou may still receive her own series in the future.

Fans were thrilled to learn that a new cast member will portray a character connected to the original series. Paramount also showcased a hilarious clip from the upcoming season, which is sure to bring joy to Vulcan fans everywhere.

I recently came across an intriguing interview with Hailey Bieber in W magazine. In this candid conversation, Hailey gave insight into her personal life and shared some details about her relationship with her husband.

On July 25, a wax figure of the late Sinéad O’Connor was debuted at the National Wax Museum of Ireland in Dublin. This event marked the one-year anniversary since her passing. However, the unveiling sparked significant backlash due to the figure’s unappealing appearance. Detractors, including her brother John, described it as “out of place” and likened it to a “doll” or a character from “Thunderbirds.” John O’Connor expressed his disappointment, stating that the figure bore little resemblance to Sinéad and found it repulsive.
