A lot of the casts are reprising their role from Netflix’s Daredevil.
Karate Kid: Legends will feature Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio, both will reprise their role from the original Karate Kid trilogy and the the 2010 remake of the franchise.
It is still unclear what will be the premise of the film, except that the Karate Kid: Legends will follow the events of the 2010 Karate Kid film. Sony Pictures said that “Karate Kid: Legends – exclusively in movie theatres May 30, 2025.”

I grew up the son of a factory worker two miles from ESPN’s campus and only ever dreamed of making a living as a sportswriter. Thirty-seven years ago, the Hartford Courant gave me my first byline and I never stopped chasing the thrill of it all.
This craft transformed my life, but I’ve decided to retire from ESPN and the news industry. I understand the commitment required in my role and it’s an investment that I’m no longer driven to make. Time isn’t in endless supply and I want to spend mine in ways that are more personally meaningful.
I leave with overwhelming gratitude for countless mentors and colleagues, subjects and stories, readers and viewers. No one has benefitted more than me from the belief, trust and generosity of others.
The past seven years at ESPN have been a particular privilege. I’m appreciative of the company’s leadership – especially Jimmy Pitaro and Cristina Daglas – for the understanding and acceptance of my decision to make a life change.After all these years reporting on everyone’s teams, I’m headed back to my own.

I’m not much for an awards person but I often use the list of nominees and winners, if I want to watch something new. This is one of the reason why I started watching “The Bear” and “Succession,” shows that took home the Outstanding Comedy and Drama Series last year.
“True Detective: Night Country” and “Shōgun” are already in our radar so I might as well checkout these shows.

James Earl Jones, the revered actor who voiced Star Wars villain Darth Vader, starred in Field of Dreams and many other films and Broadway shows and is an EGOT winner, died this morning at his home in Dutchess County, NY. He was 93.
James Earl Jones is one of the most recognizable voice in the film/movie industry.
The actor amassed nearly 200 screen credits during his brilliant 60-year career, starting some early-’60s TV guest roles and Stanley Kubrick’s 1964 classic Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). He probably is best known for his voice role as the dastardly Darth Vader in George Lucas’ original Star Wars trilogy: Star Wars (1977) The Empire Strikes Back, 1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983). He also reprised the villainous role in Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith (2005), Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016), Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker (2019) and TV’s Obi-Wan Kenobi and Star Wars: Rebels.
We can also add to this list for voicing Mufasa, in all of the Lion King franchise.

British rock legends Oasis announced on Tuesday they will reunite for a worldwide tour starting in the UK next year, as brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher ended an infamous 15-year feud.
The band, which helped create the Britpop era of the 1990s with hit songs “Wonderwall”, “Don’t Look Back In Anger” and “Champagne Supernova”, announced on X it will play gigs in Cardiff, Manchester, London, Edinburgh and the Irish capital, Dublin.
“The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised,” Oasis said, alongside details of the tour, following days of hints and speculation about the reunion.
The band will kick off the tour over two nights at the Principality Stadium in the Welsh capital Cardiff from July 4, 2025, before performing six gigs in Heaton Park in their hometown Manchester.
No word yet where the group will tour after UK and I recon, depending on the success of the band’s UK tour we may see them in the United States and/or Canada.

The update includes the arcs that will be covered by the second season, as well as new characters that will be introduced this coming season.

News Coo just delivered something special from Oda-Sensei and it’s filled with excitement and anticipation for Season 2! 🗞️😆 Big reveals are on the horizon, Straw Hats. Brace yourselves for the journey ahead! 🌊🏴☠️ pic.twitter.com/NcywD1sMI3
— ONE PIECE(ワンピース) Netflix (@onepiecenetflix) August 20, 2024
Yes, the live-action One Piece is currently in production, with filming well underway. The story will cover Loguetown, Reverse Mountain (Twin Cape), Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island! Think about it. Imagine how much it’ll cost! Lol. But whether it’s the script or the cast, I continue to insist on this or that, which makes Matt the Showrunner go “Aaarrgh!” and Netflix go “Noooo!” and Tomorrow Studios go “Whaaaat” as they all pull their hairs out. All that, even though we grew so close making season 1.
But it’s because we all share the same passion for this show! Just as with last season, they’ve gone out of their way to promise that they won’t put the show out until I’m satisfied. This isn’t in the contract, you know. It’s a verbal pledge. I hope you can appreciate how amazing and determined they are for keeping their word. And they’ve certainly proven their ability to bring this world to the screen. I just can’t wait to see it!
Meanwhile, the previously announced cast is compiled on the official X account, so go check it out. The Grand Line is an even more expansive “World”. You may wonder, what was the inspiration behind that kingdom? How would it connect to the real world? Naturally, the distinctive cast members have been assembled from around the world, and I can’t help but get excited thinking about how the adventure has already begun!
Among those yet to be announced, what about Vivi? And Miss All Sunday? What’re they doing with Chopper? We can’t announce everyone all at once, but starting tomorrow, we’ll be announcing more cast members over three days: August 21, 22 and 23.
Look out for those, and stay tuned for more exciting updates to come!
Season 1 of live-action One Piece Season is now available on Netflix, all of the Straw Hat Pirates namely Iñaki Godoy (Luffy), Mackenyu (Roronoa Zoro), Emily Rudd (Nami), Jacob Romero Gibson (Usopp) and Taz Skylar (Sanji) will also be reprising their roles.
