Unlike the original film, which centered on one couple, the new version of The Wedding Banquet will chronicle the complicated relationship between two pairs. Min’s relationship falls apart when his boyfriend Chris rejects his spontaneous marriage proposal so he turns to his friend Angela for help.

Angela agrees to marry Min after he accepts to pay for IVF treatments for her partner Liz in exchange for a green card. Everything’s going according to plan until Min’s grandmother makes a surprise trip from Seoul to throw them an extravagant Korean wedding banquet.

Bowen Yang (Saturday Night Live) and Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon) will lead this project alongside Kelly Marie Tran (Star Wars), Yuh-jung Youn (The Last Emperor), and Joan Chen (Minari).

The Wedding Banquet came out in 1993 as Ang Lee’s second film as a director and a part of his Father Knows Best trilogy. It received an Oscar nomination for the best foreign-language film and won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival.

Bailey’s casting doesn’t come as a shocker to Heartstopper fans because rumors about his potential involvement made the rounds online last month. He’ll make a cameo as an Instagram-famous classicist and Charlie’s celebrity crush, Jack Maddox, and Heartstopper teased his role with a short clip on social media.

Heartstopper creator Alice Oseman said they’re incredibly excited to be welcoming three new cast members, and revealed what we can expect from Atwell’s and Marsan’s characters.

“Hayley Atwell joins the Nelson family as Nick’s Aunt Diane, who takes Nick on a summer holiday to Menorca and has some tough advice to impart about his relationship. Eddie Marsan will be portraying a beloved character from the graphic novels: Geoff, Charlie’s wise and straight-talking therapist,” said Oseman in a statement.

Joe Locke and Nick Nelson will return as leads in the third season of Heartstopper, along with supporting players William Gao, Yasmin Finney, Corinna Brown, Kizzy Edgell, Tobie Donovan, Jenny Walser, Rhea Norwood, and Leila Khan. Eight new episodes will debut on Netflix this October, and the streamer is yet to announce the official release date.

Plot details are being kept under wraps, but this film is being developed as the part of a trilogy, set in the same universe as 28 Days Later starring Cillian Murphy in his breakout role, which kicked off this franchise in 2002 and produced a sequel 28 Weeks Later.

Both films are set in the post-apocalyptic world where the release of a highly contagious virus has caused the breakdown of society and led to the emergence of zombie-like creatures.

Both 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later featured an impressive cast of actors who went on to become huge stars, ranging from Murphy, Naomie Harris, and Christopher Eccleston to Robert Carlyle, Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, and Idris Elba, and the third film will continue this trend.

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes are attached to this project, which hails from director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland. Sony Pictures is plotting 28 Years Later as a part of a trilogy, and they’ve already tapped Nia DaCosta to direct the next film in the franchise.

Created by Fey and 30 Rock alums Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield, this series draws inspiration from the 80s classic starring Alan Alda, Carol Burnett, Rita Moreno, and Jack Weston. The original film followed three couples who go on a vacation by each other’s side every season until an unexpected divorce deteriorates their plans for a peaceful holiday.

This won’t be the first collaboration between Carell and Fey, but it’s been over a decade since we’ve seen them join forces. While The Office and 30 Rock were still on the air, this duo teamed up for a rom-com Date Night from 2010, directed by Shawn Levy. Despite mixed reviews, the film found box office success, earning $152.3 million against a $55 million budget.

The Four Seasons will mark Carell’s first collaboration with Netflix since his workplace comedy Space Force was canceled after two seasons. His recent TV credits also include Hulu’s physiological thriller mini-series The Patient and the Apple TV+ drama The Morning Show.

With 35.6 million streams, 14.1 million radio airplay audience impressions, and 6,000 sales during its latest week on the chart, “Too Sweet” became Hozier’s first No. 1 hit in the US. It previously topped the charts in the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand.

“Too Sweet” was released on March 22, as one of four songs from Hozier’s EP Unheard, a companion piece to his latest studio album Unreal Unearth. It initially debuted at No. 5 and became Hozier’s first top-ten hit in the US since “Take Me to Church”.

Hozier thanked fans for helping “Too Sweet” top the charts in a video on social media and said he’s been “both thrilled and taken massively by surprise by such a staggering reaction” to this song.

It was also a big week for Sabrina Carpenter on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Her new single “Espresso” is the highest-charting new entry at No. 7 and her first song to ever enter the top ten.

Deadpool & Wolverine kicks off with Wade Wilson trying to lead a peaceful life until the Time Variance Authority pulls him out of his timeline. He must embark on a mission with Wolverine and try to change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe before it’s too late.

In addition to Reynolds and Jackman in the titular roles, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, and Brianna Hildebrand will reprise their roles from the previous Deadpool movies. They’ll be joined by Emma Corrin, Matthew Macfadyen, and Jennifer Garner.

Deadpool & Wolverine is the first Deadpool film in the MCU, and its director Shawn Levy wanted it to shine a spotlight on both characters.

“It’s the third Deadpool movie, but it’s not Deadpool 3. It’s a different thing that’s very much Deadpool and Wolverine. And it’s not trying to copycat anything from the first two movies. They were awesome, but this is a two-hander character adventure,” he told Screen Rant.

Deadpool & Wolverine will be released on July 26, as a part of Phase Five of the MCU.

This series won’t be a remake or a sequel of the workplace sitcom we all know and love but on an offshoot set in the same universe. Daniels co-created the series alongside Michael Koman, and it will reportedly focus on new characters working at a new office, which exists in the same universe as the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company.

This project came together after Daniels gathered a group of writers to work on a potential The Office spin-off. Nathan For You co-creator Michael Koman quickly emerged as one of the leading creative voices and eventually joined Daniels as a co-creator of this offshoot.

Domhnall Gleeson, who previously led the mini-series The Patient alongside The Office star Steve Carell, is eying one of the lead roles in this project. His filmography also includes the Star Wars franchise and notable roles in About Time, Ex Machina, and Brooklyn.

He’ll be joined by Sabrina Impacciatore, the Italian actress best known for her Emmy-nominated role in the second season of The White Lotus.

Swift is no stranger to a good breakup album, and many of her previous releases inspired fan theories and wild speculations. That was also the case with The Tortured Poets Department, and many expected it to be inspired by the fallout of her long-term relations with Joe Alwyn, but Swift has given us something else entirely.

The album’s first track, the Post Malone collaboration “Fortnight”, chronicles a brief but powerful relationship that was always doomed to fail, and the rest of Tortured Poets follows a similar formula.

Instead of focusing on a single relationship, Swift explores heartbreak in all its messy stages, walking a fine line between viciousness and vulnerability. Tortured Poets is at its strongest when Swift is ready to bear her soul, and that’s why “So Long, London” stands out as one of its most powerful tracks.

Like many of the best songs on this album and its companion piece The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology, this song is produced by Aaron Dessner and not the album’s main producer Jack Antonoff. They had a pretty fruitful creative partnership for years, but Antonoff’s synth-pop tendencies don’t seem to be doing much for Swift’s sound anymore.

This is one of the biggest problems with Tortured Poets, which often sounds like an echo of her previous albums while lacking their best qualities. It has the vindictiveness of Reputation (“The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived”), the synth-pop sound of Midnights (“My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys”), storytelling strengths of Folklore and Evermore (“Clara Bow”), while still failing to measure up to any of them.

Like most of Swift’s recent albums, Tortured Poets will top the charts, break a few records – maybe even win a Grammy or two. That doesn’t change the fact it’s one of her messiest outputs in recent memory, but it’s fun to see she’s not afraid to step on the dark side, now that she’s got nothing to lose.

Lauren Schmidt Hissrich, who created this series for Netflix, said they’re “thrilled to be able to bring Andrzej Sapkowski’s books to an epic and satisfying conclusion,” and promised they’ll push the characters to their absolute limit in the final season.

Netflix also announced that Season 4 kicked off production, with Liam Hemsworth in the lead role. He’s stepping in for Henry Cavill, who made the shocking decision to leave this series after its third season.

Hemsworth will serve as a co-lead alongside Anya Chalotra and Freya Allan, and he’s excited to step into The Witcher world.

“As a Witcher fan, I’m over the moon about the opportunity to play Geralt of Rivia. Henry Cavill has been an incredible Geralt, and I’m honored that he’s handing me the reins and allowing me to take up the White Wolf’s blades for the next chapter of his adventure,” said Hemsworth when his casting was first announced.

Joey Batey, Mimî M. Khayisa, Anna Shaffer, Royce Pierreson, Wilson Mbomio, and Mahesh Jadu are also expected to return in Season 4, along with the new cast member Laurence Fishburne.

The Movie Critic was supposed to be set in 1977 California and center on the cynical movie critic who used to write for an adult magazine. This film was supposed to reunite Tarantino with Brad Pitt, the star of Inglourious Basterds and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, in addition to starring several actors from the director’s previous films.

Despite being one of the buzziest new projects on the block, The Movie Critic is no longer happening. Tarantino reportedly had a change of heart after rewriting the script and decided to scrap it entirely.

Whatever movie Tarantino decides to do next it will be his tenth and most likely final project since he’s been dropping hints about his potential retirement for years.

“I don’t believe you should stay onstage until people are begging you to get off. I like the idea of leaving them wanting a bit more. I do think directing is a young man’s game, and I like the idea of an umbilical cord connection from my first to my last movie,” he told Deadline in 2014.
