Disney just dropped a new trailer for its newest animated series Iwaju. Set in a futuristic Lagos, Nigeria, the animated series will explore themes of class divide and inequality.
Watch the trailer below:
The trailer reveals a young girl named Tola and her cyborg critter pet Otin. Otin is an Agama lizard, also called a rainbow lizard for their striking color patterns. Tola’s new cyber friend will be a hero of sorts as it becomes Tola’s protector.
Important to point out though: Disney did not animate Iwaju. The series is a collaboration between Britain-based company Kugali Media and Disney+. African artists, who comprise a majority of Kugali media, founded the company with the goal of telling African stories through animation and media.

Iwaju’s creator, Ziki Nelson, takes inspiration from Lagos being a melting pot of cultures in Africa, and says that the city has a “distinct feel”.
Madame Web is the latest “addition” to Sony’s Spider-verse. The Spiderman film franchise has been hugely successful thanks to amazing leads like Toby Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland.
However, it looks like not even Dakota Johnson’s acting skills can wrap the movie up nicely. We know Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steel sold the Fifty shades fantasy well. Her personality bleeds into Anastasia Steele and she sets up the submissive role perfectly.
Additionally, Dakota Johnson’s dry humor is what makes her likable in interviews.
Madame Web Trailer
So why do audiences and film critics not like the latest Spider-verse “addition”?
To start, the trailer revealed a voice over by Cassandra Webb (Dakota Johnson) that wasn’t even in the film. While some audiences may not care about this minor detail, it could have been useful to include it. Especially since the antagonist had a major role to play on how Cassandra came to be.
There were some awkward lines in the movie as well that deserve a meme comparable to Anakin’s in George Lucas’ Star Wars. Anakin’s “I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.” is similar to “Hope the spiders were worth it, Mom.” In fact, the line has become a meme commodity for the internet.
Madame Web Film Poster
So bad dialogue aside, the directing also contributes to the film’s meme-worthiness. S.J. Clarkson did work on some episodes of successful series like Dexter, House, and Heroes. The director also worked on a Game of Thrones prequel entitled Bloodmoon, however, HBO didn’t air it. Most of these series have a tone vastly different from that of a superhero movie, and that’s probably the reason why Madame Webb just didn’t work.
While Madame Web is spinning out of control, one could wonder if the film’s meme status could reclaim it. Although it’s not a main Spiderman arc, Madame Web should be a solid reminder not to approach superhero movies the way Sony did Morbius.
From Marvel.com
For all intents and purposes, the movie is not a main continuity movie. For some film-goers, they eventually might grow to love Madame Web as its stand-alone film. Dakota Fanning does say we’ll love it and we’re going to see it twice.
Marvel finally release the trailer the much awaited X-men 97 the animated series and the release date will be on March 20th on Disney+.
The trailer is started with final moment of Professor Charles Xavier, then the trailer quickly switched to what appears to be the opening theme of the series, then on the last 15 seconds of the video, Magneto appeared claiming that everything that Professor Charles have created “now belongs” to him.
You can watch the trailer below;
The series created by Beau DeMayo for the streaming service Disney+, it is based on the Marvel Comics superhero team X-Men. Produced by Marvel Studios Animation, with DeMayo serving as head writer and Jake Castorena as supervising director. A number of the original voice cast will reprise their role including Cal Dodd, Lenore Zann, George Buza, Catherine Disher, Chris Potter, Alison Sealy-Smith, Adrian Hough, Christopher Britton, Alyson Court, Lawrence Bayne, and Ron Rubin.
X-Men ’97 is scheduled to premiere on March 20, 2024, and its first season will beten episodes. A second season is already in development.
Marvel Studios officially confirmed the cast for the Fantastic Four reboot; Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm. Marvel’s announcement was made in a tweet accompanied by an artwork of the Fantastic Four that resembles the casts face.
Happy Valentine’s Day from Marvel’s First Family! Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn are The Fantastic Four.
While no director has been officially announced, Matt Shakman was initially in talks for the role, confirmed at D23 in September 2023. The same month, Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer were hired as writers for the film. By March 2023, Josh Friedman was hired to rewrite the script.
The film is scheduled to be released on July 25, 2025, but aside from the main cast and the film’s release specific plot details remain under wraps and we can just speculate based on the existing comic book history and their potential integration into the wider MCU.
Netflix just release the official trailer of Damsel, the streaming giant’s fantasy film featuring Millie Bobby Brown for the lead role.
The premise of the film may have already spoiled the film but what the trailer (embedded below) shows us is that it’ll be filled with action sequences, sword fights and lots of special effects, not to mentions all those beautiful scenery.
A dutiful damsel agrees to marry a handsome prince, only to find the royal family has recruited her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt. Thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, she must rely on her wits and will to survive. Millie Bobby Brown stars in Damsel.

For viewers who haven’t seen the musical, this is their chance to see the world of Oz and Emerald City. This time, Dorothy is not the main focus (or is she?). The film offers a more personal view of Emerald City’s characters and their relationship. Elpheba, who is traditionally known as the Wicked Witch of the West, is getting a spotlight in this film as the focus shifts away from the classical protagonist and more into her personal journey.
The trailer also revealed big personalities. While Ariana Grande plays Glinda, much of the singing comes from other vocalists. Jeff Goldblum (Thor: Ragnarok) will play the sinister Wizard of Oz and Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once) as Madame Morrible.
In addition to the spectacular cast, the teaser also shows intricate major set design which would be a feast for the eyes. In comparison to the Broadway Musical, the film fleshes out the environment of Oz in greater detail. Some glimpses in the trailer also showed iconic objects from the World of Oz, including the iconic ruby slippers Dorothy receives from Glinda.
Wicked will be the first of a two-part film. However, viewers will still have no clue of how the story is cut. The film is an adaptation of a musical adaptation. This musical adaptation draws inspiration from the 1995 novel “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West” written by Gregory Maguire.
Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.
The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda’s unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba’s determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
20th Century Studios just release the official trailer of the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. The film will serve as the sequel to the to War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) and is the fourth installment in the Planet of the Apes reboot franchise.
Director Wes Ball breathes new life into the global, epic franchise set several generations in the future following Caesar’s reign, in which apes are the dominant species living harmoniously and humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is directed by Wes Ball from a screenplay by Josh Friedman, Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, and Patrick Aison, and produced by Joe Hartwick Jr., Jaffa, Silver, and Jason Reed. The film stars Owen Teague in the lead role alongside Freya Allan, Kevin Durand, Peter Macon, and William H. Macy.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is scheduled to hit the big screen on May 10th.
Marvel Studios just released the teaser trailer for “Deadpool 3: Deadpool & Wolverine.” After mixed critical reception for some Phase 4 and early Phase 5 films, the “Deadpool & Wolverine” project presents itself as a potential breath of fresh air and the film the MCU might need to reinvigorate itself. It could also pave the way for full introduction of mutants, the X-Men, and other Marvel properties.
From the trailer itself, we get to see that the Time Variance Authority (TVA) will be featured in the film, which means that Deadpool and in some capacity, Wolverine will have the ability to go to different Marvel timeline and change the course of that particular timeline be it the past, present and future. Just imagine, the duo joining the avengers with their fight against Ultron or Thanos, or Deadpool snatching the Nano Gauntlet from Tony Stark and the one snapping his fingers. That will surely “change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe”.
Until we watch the fholeIt’s unclear which timeline the duo will “mess-up” and how but one thing is for sure, as the premise of the film goes “Deadpool will change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Wolverine.”
Deadpool & Wolverine is the 3rd Deadpool film and first under Disney/Marvel Studios. It is directed by Shawn Levy, who also directed a number of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman films like Free Guy, the Adam Project and Real Steel. Deadpool & Wolverine is written by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells. The film will star Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reprising their role as Deadpool and Wolverine, respectively, alongside Emma Corrin, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, and Matthew Macfadyen. Aaron Stanford will also returns as Pyro, from the X-Men films and Jennifer Garner as Elektra Natchios.
The duo we’ve all been waiting for in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is out!
Marvel Entertainment has released an official teaser for the upcoming film Deadpool & Wolverine.
Watch the trailer below;
In the teaser video, it shows Wade Wilson’s birthday party and his subsequent abduction by the TVA. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe would know that the organization was officially introduced in Disney’s limited series Loki.
The teaser also reveals Wolverine, however, it’s not positive if this iteration of Wolverine is the X-Men version from Fox Studios. Disney’s acquisition of Fox gives them rights over the X-Men characters, so this should not be an issue.
Deadpool 3: Deadpool & Wolverine Movie Poster

Supporting cast members also include: Matthew Macfadyen as Mobius, Karan Soni as Wade’s driver, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, and more.

Fans of the show will know that this is just a continuation of the first season’s ending. Seong Gihun has just won the game and is onboarding a plane to leave the country. He then changes his mind halfway through boarding, and the scene cuts.

Kingsman fans have a reason to celebrate as a potential crossover between Argylle and Kingsman might not be too far off.
Movie goers who stayed behind will enjoy a Marvel-esque scene bonus. When the credits roll, it’s interrupted by a flashback 20 years ago. Shown in the mid-credits is a young Aubrey Argylle entering what looks like a bar from the Kingsman movie.
Just after the Kingsman reveal, the customer orders a “cosmopolitan with a twist”. While the barkeeper and the young Aubrey exchange codewords, the former hands him a box with a weapon.
In an interview with Yahoo UK, Director Matthew Vaughn stated that he wanted the movies to intersect. Consequentially, the crossover was a possibility as MARV Studios produced the two films.
Theory-crafters are also insisting similarities between Elly Conway’s cat to the pop singer’s Scottish Fold. However, Matthew Vaughn clarified that Elly Conway is not Taylor Swift.
Spoilers ahead: Argylle’s plot revolves around introverted spy novelist Elly Conway, played by Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World).
Foundationally, the story focuses on how Elly survives a deadly game of spies and assassins as she discovers that her stories coincide with real-life events.
Some big names were cast for Argylle – Henry Cavill (Superman, The Witcher), John Cena, Dua Lipa, Samuel Jackson (Avengers), and Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), just to name a few.
The director hasn’t overtly stated a shared cinematic universe for the two movies. However, former Kingsman: The Secret Service cast member Sofia Boutella makes an appearance in the film. The actress’ appearance contributes to reinforcing the idea that there is indeed a shared spy universe.

Turning the final page of the CNN Philippines newsroom's story. We are forever grateful for the stories we've shared, the audience we've served, and to our dedicated team for their commitment to uphold the values of truth, accuracy, fairness, and accountability.

Sofa Vergara’s new Netflix Series Griselda follows the story of a Colombian woman who comes to the United States as she leads her double life as the Godmother of Cocaine and a mother to three kids.
Sounds cliche? The big twist is that this series is based on a much darker story. Griselda Blanco did exist, and her family still lives
Griselda Blanco’s journey from Colombia wasn’t easy – she grew up in an extremely abusive household. There are accounts of her by an outdated Britannica. The encyclopedia purportedly showed that she helped in a kidnapping when she was just 11 years old.
The big screen has featured the infamous Colombian drug leader before. Catherine-Zeta Jones’ portrayal in the movie Cocaine Godmother (2017) received praise amidst a rushed plot and a few factual inconsistencies.
In the exclusive interview with Sofia Vergara by Entertainment Tonight, the actress spoke about snorting fake cocaine, aside from her unrecognizable transformation.
The Blanco family has filed legal action to stop the release of the series, to which the director responded “lightheartedly”.
Demon Slayer Season 4 is in the works after a successful Season 3. The trailer is already out for the 1-hour Episode 1 special in preparation for Season 4. The creative team behind the series is UFOTABLE, who are also responsible for the hit anime series such as Fate/Stay Night and God Eater.
We will get to see a development to Tanjiro’s journey after his encounter with the Upper Rank demon Hantengu. The ending of the Swordsmith Village Arc shows shows a major breakthrough with Tanjiro’s sister. Nezuko finally “conquers the sun” after Tanjiro makes a critical decision of killing a fleeing demon.
It’s a cliffhanger for sure, and although an anime adaptation of the manga is still in the works, the next series will focus on Tanjiro’s training with Himejima in Season 4.
The movie will act as a prelude to Season 4, and we might get to see more of Tanjiro’s character development while under the tutelage of the Rock Hashira. There will be even more demon appearances (and ultimately more fights), for which the anime series has received praise – both for its visual and sound design.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba To the Hashira Training will premiere next month worldwide.
Netflix’s new and upcoming series Avatar The Last Airbender will premiere on February 22 this year.
The new Avatar of the four elements will be played by half-French, half-Filipino Canadian actor Gordon Cormier (Lost in Space). Anne with an E actress Kiawentiio Tarbell will be playing Katara, while Ian Ousley plays her brother Sokka. Dallas Liu will be playing Aang’s archnemesis (for the first few seasons, at least), and Elizabeth Yu will act as the power-crazed firebender Azula.
The trailer for the series will differ from the M. Night Shyamalan movie released in 2010, with the main difference being the coverage of the events. The 2010 movie showed select scenes in the first season of the animated series. The highlights of the film were Episodes 19 and 20, The Siege of the North.
This time, however, fans of the much-beloved children’s show will see all important characters and events from Episode 1 until 20 of Book 1:Water.

Tina Fey is back with a new spin on the popular teen comedy movie. This time, Cady Heron, the role formerly held previously by Lindsay Lohan, will be taking on “new” friends and enemies.
In this remake of a musical remake of the film, Angourie Rice (Every Day, Honor Society) will take on Lindsay’s mantle as she goes through the hellscape of high school, aptly represented by a trio of ladies called “The Plastics”.
Fey’s new take on the film is a combination of the Tony nominated Broadway musical and the first film. The comedian-actress who also worked as SNL’s senior writer aims to capture the popularity of the first movie. In a separate interview, she talks about how she approached Paramount and their initial disbelief to her pitch.
Fey further elaborates that the movie isn’t purely comical, and that there will be moments the audience can connect to the characters.
Tina Fey also makes an appearance in the movie. Mean Girls Revenge Party is streaming on Netflix.

Six months into a solitary research mission to the edge of the solar system, an astronaut, Jakub (Adam Sandler), realizes that the marriage he left behind might not be waiting for him when he returns to Earth. Desperate to fix things with his wife, Lenka (Carey Mulligan), he is helped by a mysterious creature from the beginning of time he finds hiding in the bowels of his ship. Hanuš (voiced by Paul Dano) works with Jakub to make sense of what went wrong before it is too late. Directed by Johan Renck and based on the novel Spaceman of Bohemia, the film also stars Kunal Nayyar, Lena Olin, and Isabella Rossellini.
