Natalie Portman’s return to the Thor fold in Taika Waititi’s upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder as Jane Foster would have been exciting enough, but we’ve known since Comic-Con 2019 that Portman’s Foster would also be Mighty Thor. Here’s how Waititi revealed that bit of news way back when:

“Operation Mincemeat” Director John Madden Slices Up A Delicious Spy Thriller
Writer Ben Macintyre’s book “Operation Mincemeat: How a Dead Man and a Bizarre Plan Fooled the Nazis and Assured an Allied Victory” lives up to its subtitle. The bizarre plan in question would barely be credible as the plot of a movie, let alone an actual piece of espionage history that really and truly did fool the Nazis and make an Allied victory possible. A sketch of that plan—doctor up a corpse to make it look like a high ranking British officer,...

That’s a ton of eyeballs,...
“Rise” Trailer Reveals Disney+’s Original Film Based on Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Life
Last night, the Boston Celtics managed to withstand yet another monster performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukee Bucks’ prodigiously gifted power forward, to even the series at 2 games apiece. Yet there is no doubt Antetokounmpo will continue to dominate, he is quite literally a once-in-a-generation talent who took the Bucks to the promised land last year to win them their first title since 1971. As sensational as Antetokounmpo is on the court, his life leading up to his ascendance to the top tier of the NBA’s star-studded league is even more astonishing...
At Long Last “Avatar: The Way of Water” Trailer Has Arrived
We open on the lush planet of Pandora, with members of the Na’vi tribe running across a moss-covered tree. Then we see Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) and Jake (Sam Worthington), who have started a family.

Daniel Radcliffe Gets “Weird” in Trailer for Weird Al Yankovic Biopic
Daniel Radcliffe has had quite the post Harry Potter career. Hardly playing it safe, Radcliffe has bared body and soul on stage, credibly played a farting corpse in the surprisingly touching Swiss Army Man, played a brash villain in the action-comedy The Lost City, and basically followed his muse in whichever direction it led him. Now, in what feels like a very fitting new role, Radcliffe inhabits Weird Al Yankovic in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story for Roku...
