The popular Netflix series Warrior Nun will return as a film trilogy, it was announced on Tuesday. The series, which was based on the comic book series of the same name, was canceled by Netflix after two seasons. However, the series’ fans were vocal in their support for a renewal, and their efforts have paid off.
The Warrior Nun series premiered in 2020, and Season 2 of the show earned a 100% critics score and a 99% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes — the highest ever for a Netflix original at that time. But a month after the premiere of Season 2, the show was abruptly cancelled by s.
Mark Gordon Pictures and Propagate Content have been tagged to produce the trilogy. The creative team from the series, including showrunner Simon Barry, will return for the films.

The film trilogy will pick up where the series left off, with Ava (Alba Baptista) and the Order of the Cruciform Sword continuing their fight against the forces of darkness. The films will also explore new storylines and characters from the comic book series.
The news of the Warrior Nun film trilogy is a major win for fans of the series. The show was praised for its action, humor, and strong female characters. The films have the potential to be even more successful than the series, as they will have a larger budget and a wider audience.

Warrior Nun follows the story of Ava Silva (Alba Baptista), “a 19-year-old quadriplegic orphaned teen, who wakes up in a morgue with a new lease on life and a divine artifact embedded in her back, giving her superpowers as the chosen Halo-Bearer. She discovers she is now part of the ancient order of demon-hunting that has been tasked with fighting demons on Earth, and powerful forces representing both heaven and hell want to find and control her.”

For all those who watched John Wick 4, it’s remains to be seen if John Wick really did die with his duel with the Marquis Vincent de Gramont portrayed by Bill Skarsgård, and it looks like we will soon get our answer, since it’s been reported that John Wick 5 and other IP from the ‘John Wick Universe’ is under development.
In a report by Comicbook.com, during Lionsgate Q4 2023 earnings call, Motion Picture Group chairman Joe Drake confirmed that John Wick 5 is in early development and they’re expanding the ‘John Wick Universe’ starting with spin-off Ballerina film and the TV series “The Continental.”
We’re now moving across that franchise, not just in the AAA video game space, but looking at what the regular cadence of spin-offs, television really growing that universe so that there is a steady cadence of a franchise that there’s clear appetite by the audience,” Drake explained. “What is official is that, as you know, Ballerina is the first spinoff that comes out next year. We’re in development on three others, including [John Wick 5] and including television series, The Continental, will be airing soon. And so, we’re building out the world and when that five movie comes, will be organic — will be organically grown out of how we’re starting to tell those stories. But you can rely on a regular cadence of John Wick.
The Ballerina film is the official spin-off from the John Wick franchise will star Ana de Armas, Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Lance Reddick, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Norman Reedus, Ian McShane, and Keanu Reeves. The Ballerina is set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum (2019) and John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023). The premise of the film is that ballerina-assassin Rooney (Armas) hunts the murderers of her family. The film is scheduled to be released on 7th June 2024.
Still in development is a spin-off television series entitled The Continental which will feature younger versions of several John Wick characters and more like revolve on how the rules and the hotel itself was build.
Marvel Studios just dropped the first teaser trailer of the Marvels, Captain Marvel’s highly anticipated sequel.
In the trailer (embedded below), we can see all three members of the Marvels; Carol Danvers/Capt. Marvel, Monica Rambeau/Photon and Kamala Kahn/Ms. Marvel. The 2 mins video also shows us that the body swapping is not just between between Capt. Marvel and Ms. Marvel but it also involves Monica Rambeau, we may see an explanation why this is happening in the film.
This is the premise of the film;
In The Marvels, Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau. Together, this unlikely trio must team up and learn to work in concert to save the universe as “The Marvels.”
It’s unclear if the film will happen before or after the events of Marvel’s Secret Invasion series.

Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau, we first saw her in the WandaVision Disney+ series. Then we have the Kamala Kahn’s whole family from Ms. Marvel series as well.

Sony just release another trailer of the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and this one is a doozy.
If in the first trailer, we do not know why all those “Spider-People”, including Spider-Man 2099, are attacking Mile Morales and Gwen Stacy, and now we got the answer or at least the idea on why they’re after Miles Morales.
As explained by Miguel O’Hara a.k.a. Spider-Man 2099, Morales can never be a full-fledged Spider-man because he never experience the tragedy of choosing to save the “one person he loves versus saving the entire universe,” which everyone of the Spider-People have experienced. This is where things got interesting, since Miles Morales refuse to accept this fate as a Spider-man, this is what prompted the rest of the Spider-People to go after him.
It is still unclear who the main villain of the film and the main plot line but whatever it is, it looks like Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is going to be a great film.
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar®-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man™: Across the Spider-Verse. After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence. But when the heroes clash on how to handle a new threat, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must redefine what it means to be a hero so he can save the people he loves most.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson. Screenplay by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller and David Callaham. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be in theaters June 2, 2023.

Recent college grad Jaime Reyes returns home full of aspirations for his future, only to find that home is not quite as he left it. As he searches to find his purpose in the world, fate intervenes when Jaime unexpectedly finds himself in possession of an ancient relic of alien biotechnology: the Scarab. When the Scarab suddenly chooses Jaime to be its symbiotic host, he is bestowed with an incredible suit of armor capable of extraordinary and unpredictable powers, forever changing his destiny as he becomes the Super Hero BLUE BEETLE.
Blue Beetle is directed by Angel Manuel Soto and written by Gareth Dunnet-Alcocer, it stars Xolo Maridueña as Jaime Reyes / Blue Beetle, Adriana Barraza as Nana, Damián Alcázar as Alberto, Elpidia Carrillo as Rocio, Bruna Marquezine as Jenny – Jaime’s love interest.

Marvel studios just release first official movie poster of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. In a true spider-fashion, the poster features an unmasked upside-down Miles Morales and appears to be dividing “Spider-People” into two groups.
On his left are the “Spiders” who are friendly with Morales which includes Gwen Stacy/Spider-Gwen, Scarlet Spider and Spider-Punk; while on his right are the “Spiders” who attacked Morales as shown in the trailer released last Dec 14th, which includes Spider-Man 2099, the pregnant Jessica Drew/Spider-woman. We also see other spiders like Spider-Cop, Spider-Man Unlimited, Spider-Man India, Takuya Yamashiro (a.k.a. the Japanese Spider-Man), Spider-Woman, Peter B. Parker/Spider-Man.
It’s still unclear why the other “Spider=people” are aggressive towards Miles Morales but it appears to be related to the “multiverse” and this “new threat.”
If you missed the first trailer of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, then go and watch it here.

Like, why the hell did all those “Spider-People”, including Spider-Man 2099, attacking Mile Morales and Gwen Stacy? And why kind of threat would it take for all those “Spider-People” to come together? Also, why is it only Miles and Gwen, to some degree “Peter Parker,” are the only ones who doesn’t know what really is happening in the “multi-verse”?

It looks like we are getting one last Indiana Jones film from Harrison Ford, as Lucas Films release the official trailer of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. The 1 min 45 secs run time of the trailer seems short when you consider that not much is revealed in the trailer.
In the video, we can hear the voice of Indy’s old friend Sallah (played by John Rhys-Davies), asking if missed their old adventurous and dangerous life, then an old and retired ‘Prof’ Jones immediately replied “those days have come and gone.”
Trailer have all the element of a classic Indiana Jones film; the catchy music, the humor and the usual trip to an unknown Middle Eastern nation.

This will be the 5th Indiana Jones film and at the age of 80, Harrison Ford looks great in the video and its unclear if this film will be used to expand the Indiana Jones franchise, so that new character can take over or explored.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is scheduled to be in theaters on June 30th 2023. Harrison Ford will reprise his role as the legendary archaeologist, it is directed by James Mangold and co-written by Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth and James Mangold.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny will also star;
