The antagonist and protagonist are two sides of a single coin. Without a powerful evil force, it is impossible to realize the strength of the lead character. Therefore, the characterization of an antagonist is as important as the characterization of the protagonist, and this applies to every sphere, whether it is a movie, an anime, or a video game.

Jessica Alba may have moved on from playing the Fantastic Four character Sue Storm. However, it looks like it still holds an extremely special place in her heart. After all, she had played the part perfectly in both the 2005 and 2007 films, Fantastic Four and its sequel Rise of the Silver Surfer. Although it has been years since the actress put on her stunning blue suit, the 43-year-old shone some light on her time with the MCU.

After working on The Witcher (he made headlines for saying the creative team hated Andrzej Sapkowski's books), Beau DeMayo looked set to play a big role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
After initially working on Moon Knight, he was tapped to take charge of X-Men '97 as Head Writer and later came on board the Blade movie for a rewrite. However, the scribe parted ways with Marvel Studios on the project and was fired from the animated revival earlier this year.
Things got increasingly messy from there, with claims of sexual misconduct on DeMayo's part and possible racism and homophobia from Disney/Marvel Studios. Now, he's filed a lawsuit seeking to invalidate the non-disparagement provision in his separation agreement.

Video game geek Henry Cavill has been making headlines since the beginning of 2024, for his association with Prime Video’s upcoming Warhammer 40K adaptation. Set to produce and appear in the TV series version of the hit miniature wargame, Cavill even admitted to helping the studio develop the game’s adaptation, with his intensive player knowledge.

Unfortunately, despite the excitement surrounding the project, the Warhammer 40K adaptation is facing significant delays due to agreement issues on “Creative Guidelines” between Games Workshop and Amazon. Meanwhile, as we wait, a report emerged from Spikey Bits highlighting celebrities who have shown their passion for Warhammer. And Henry Cavill would be surprised to know that Oscar-winner Robin Williams is one among them.

The mystery and confusion surrounding Beau DeMayo’s firing from X-Men ’97 has had fans scratching their heads for more than a few days now. When it was initially announced that the writer was forced to part ways with a series that he created, fans were quite upset.
He added fuel to the fire, talking about how unjustly he had been treated by the franchise. This, and the dedication he had to make sure that fans had the best watching experience for the animated series’ release, made audiences adore his dedication. They advocated for his spot in Marvel Studios and demanded the franchise take him back.

Black Myth Wukong‘s journey from a most-wishlisted game on Steam to the most-played single game on Steam is a fascinating example of how literary works should be adapted into video games, to be precise RPGs.
While this Chinese marvel based on the epic novel Journey to the West doesn’t belong in the open-world games section, its branching is a blessing in disguise since it is a rather rewarding experience.
Importantly, Wukong isn’t a retelling of the original story, as the novel serves as a foundation, from which a fresh and familiar world was born. There is a huge potential behind many literary works with rich and detailed universes that can be translated into open world games if done correctly.

Antony Starr garnered widespread appreciation for playing the villain Homelander in Amazon Prime’s The Boys. His eccentric nature leading to some of the most gruesome moments is one of the significant highlights of the show. Recently, in the penultimate season of the show, we got one of the most disgusting scenes when Homelander ripped Webweaver from the middle.

Although the fans expected to see such a Spider-Man knockoff in the middle of Season 4, it was shocking to see the character getting such a brutal death. However, what is more shocking is the fact that Antony Starr almost became Homelander in the scene by sharing a weird character trait with the supe.

The Boys never fails to surprise its fans with some of the most unhinged and horrendous sequences.

Henry Cavill—who donned the white hair and brooding scowl as Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s hit series, The Witcher—has chosen to hang up his sword and call it quits after Season 3. This news has shaken viewers, especially since many credit him as the series’ lifeblood. After all, critics and gamers alike had showered accolades upon the actor for his portrayal, praising his commitment to Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski’s original vision.

The crux of the drama? Cavill had a deep-seated loyalty to Sapkowski’s vision, and some fans feel the show’s writers and showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich have steered the story off its intended path.
Fans remain convinced that the writers have given the books and games the cold shoulder, despite Hissrich’s claims of sharing their deep affection for the source material.

Henry Cavill played Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s adaptation of The Witcher. Based on the short stories of Andrzej Sapkowski which were already adapted into fan-favorite video games, the Netflix series had a successful first season but saw a downfall in its second and third seasons.
Cavill left the series after the third season as he was set to reprise his role as Superman in the Dceu (before James Gunn rebooted the franchise) and was replaced by Liam Hemsworth. In an interview, Cavill admitted that he did not have much control over the storyline of the show and he tried to stay loyal to the character.

We are halfway into 2024, and a lot of gaming nerds have already found their new favorite character, this time someone from Chinese mythology. Game Science’s action RPG, Black Myth: Wukong, is shattering records and demonstrating the power of traditional mythology when executed well. However, its success is clashing with fans of another franchise based on Greek mythology.

The Witcher 3 has set a high bar for open-world action RPGs, with its gripping storytelling, unforgettable characters, and sprawling, richly detailed world. Now, it seems that an upcoming game from Korean developer Pearl Abyss is looking to capture some of that same magic and take it to new heights.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Crimson Desert is how it seems to be drawing inspiration from two of the most beloved action RPGs in recent memory: The Witcher 3 and Dragon’s Dogma 2.

S.I.U.’s Tower of God might be a big name in the manhwa industry, but the series has not been living up to the expectations of anime fans. The series has two seasons as of yet, and both seasons have made their name in the community, but for the wrong seasons. While the first season still managed to earn some recognition, the recently released second season is being hated vigorously by fans.

Tower of God follows the story of Twenty-Fifth Baam, who lived under a tower alone for the longest time until he met Rachel. Rachel was Baam’s only friend, and she taught him everything about life, along with explaining to him her desire to climb the top of the tower. Their journey through the different levels of the tower to reach the top is the central narrative of the series.

In Will Trent‘s Season 2 polarizing Season 2 finale, Will arrested Angie for being an accessory to murder since Crystal killed so many sex offenders.
While Angie didn’t learn of Crystal’s part in the murders until the end, she covered up Crystal’s first murder, Lenny, who had sexually abused both women. If she had gotten Crystal some help, she might not have gone on a killing spree.
It was such an intriguing case, and going into Season 3, it will affect not only Will and Angie but also the Gbi and the Apd.
(Disney/Daniel Delgado Jr.) Can Will and Angie Find Their Way Back?
That was the ultimate cliffhanger, having Will arrest Angie. It divided the characters and the fans.
While Angie suspected Will might learn of her involvement, she hoped he would choose her this time, and when she sobbed that line, it broke my heart.

This past weekend, A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin stopped by a convention in Albuquerque, New Mexico to give an open-ended talk about his life and his work. That's according to people who were there and shared their impressions online, since the event wasn't recorded.
After watching the second season of House of the Dragon, which is based on Martin's book Fire & Blood, I know I was curious to hear what Martin thought about it, especially considering that it made so many changes from the source material. Martin has praised plenty about the season, especially episodes like "Rhaenyra the Cruel" and "The Red Dragon and the Gold." But he's also had some criticisms. He's pointed out little things like the dragon heraldry on flags and such being off, and also talked a fair amount lately about his issues with TV producers who take a great book...

Unless you’ve been living on a secluded island or Amish country, adaptations of novels to screen is not a new concept to you.
It’s become one of the most common formulas for creating movies and TV shows.
From Netflix to Amazon, everyone wants a piece of the action.
(Courtesy of Apple TV+)
While not every project is a knockout, audiences have seen some successful franchises flourish from this method.
Just off the top of my head are the Harry Potter movies, Twilight, Hunger Games, 50 Shades of Grey, and even the Bridget Jones movies.
And it’s not just the big screen. TV saw the opportunity and jumped on board with shows like The Vampire Diaries, Game of Thrones, Percy Jackson, and The Witcher.

Despite The Witcher being renewed for season 4, original leading man Henry Cavill has stepped away from the series. In the upcoming fourth season, the central role of Geralt of Rivia will be played by Liam Hemsworth instead.
Cavill never explained why he was leaving the popular Netflix series, although there was plenty of fan speculation. Let’s take a look at the likely reasons Cavill decided to walk away from this fantastical role.
1. There were creative differences on the set
The Witcher TV show is based on a series of books by Andrzej Sapkowski, later followed up on in a series of video games from CD Projekt Red. The show doesn't follow either of these sources particularly closely, which has angered some fans. Former Witcher producer and writer Beau DeMayo shared that some of the writers “actively disliked” the books and games, and that showrunner Lauren D. Hissrich tried to...

Blue Eye Samurai is an absolute gem of a show. Since its debut in November, this animated Netflix hit has become a major cult favorite, with many claiming it’s one of the best shows of its kind…well…ever? In it, Mizu, a female mixed-race blue-eyed samurai (voiced by Maya Erskine) seeks revenge against the four men (one of whom is her father) who did her wrong. With an all-star voice cast that includes George Takei, Kenneth Branagh, Masi Oka, and many others, it’s quickly become a favorite of our own Taylor James Johnson, who you may know as the host of one of our most enduringly popular series, Wtf Happened to this Celebrity, as well as the recent reboot of C’Mon Hollywood.

Renowned for his incredibly down-to-earth personality, amicable behavior, chivalry, and ever-so-alluring aura, Keanu Reeves has established himself as one of the most – if not the most – gentlemanly figures in all of Hollywood. But lately, Henry Cavill has been pulling up some serious stints that may end up rivaling Reeves’ level of undeniable charm.

While his handsome personality that mirrors his physical appearance is one thing, fans are further getting bewitched by Cavill’s thoroughly kind and generous behavior toward his peers. To say the least, after Simu Liu’s latest story about meeting the Cavillrine, even all those Man of Steel haters won’t be able to help but turn into the actor’s fans!

NBC’s Brilliant Minds will premiere in September of the upcoming fall season.
While medical dramas are a dime a dozen, Brilliant Minds differs because it’s based on the real-life Dr. Oliver Wolf Sacks.
The series focuses on the larger-than-life neurologist who was not afraid to break the rules to help his patients live life to the fullest.
(Brendan Meadows/NBC)
While the series focuses mainly on the protagonist, it also includes an exciting ensemble, including his old friend Dr. Pierce and his team of interns.
The team explores cases related to the human mind while examining their own mental health issues and relationships.
With real-life inspiration, rich characters, and a talented cast, we hope this series lasts for many seasons. Meet the cast and characters in Brilliant Minds.

Henry Cavill found worldwide fame when he picked up the red cape and portrayed the role of Superman in the 2013 Zack Snyder film Man of Steel. The world simply fell in love with him.

Actor Hugh Jackman is 6'2" tall. While many agreed that he was perfectly cast as the X-Man Wolverine when he first started playing the role in 2000 -- he encapsulated the facial expressions and feral attitudes of the comic book character -- some noted that he was too tall. A little bit of research reveals that Wolverine is actually a short fellow, standing at a below-average 5'3" and weighing 195 pounds. Just like his animal namesake, Wolverine contains a lot of muscle in a small package. These stats, by the way, come from the Series 1 Marvel Universe trading cards released by Impel in 1990. The same stats were passed into all the subsequent trading cards. Did you know that Wolverine has a Strength level of 2, an Intelligence rating of 3, and a Fighting Ability rating of 7?
For 10 movies, however, comics readers had to face a towering 6'2" Wolverine and just sort of accept that...

"They want a war... I will give it to them."
Following several brief teasers, Netflix (via Toonado.com) has released an action-packed full trailer for Zack Snyder's adult animated Norse mythology series, Twilight of the Gods, which is set to premiere on the streaming service on September 19.
This "blood, sex and dragons" promo makes it abundantly clear that this will not be a show for the whole family, as a mortal warrior named Sigrid wages war against Loki, Thor and all of their fellow Asgardian gods in extremely violent fashion while also taking care of some other business in the bedroom.
"In a mythical world of great battles, great deeds, and great despair, Leif (Stuart Martin), a mortal king, is saved on the battlefield by Sigrid (Sylvia Hoeks), an iron-willed warrior with whom he falls in love," reads the recently-released synopsis.

As you may know, despite his immense popularity and dedicated fanbase, Henry Cavill hasn’t had the smoothest journey lately. His time as Superman has come to an end, with James Gunn choosing to replace him with David Corenswet. Cavill also stepped away from his leading role in The Witcher series, where he was succeeded by Liam Hemsworth. His recent film Argylle was a disappointment at the box office, and while he’s still active in the industry, his career isn’t quite where many would expect it to be.
His film The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare performed reasonably well, but his highly anticipated Warhammer 40,000 project might be in jeopardy. This leaves him with the Highlander reboot, but only time will tell how he and the team will tackle one of the most beloved fantasy films of all time.

As you probably know, Henry Cavill, despite being enormously popular and loved by many fans, doesn’t seem to be able to catch a break. His work as Superman is over, as Gunn decided to replace him with David Corenswet, and his franchise success – The Witcher – also ended up with him being replaced with Liam Hemsworth. His recent project, Argylle, failed miserably, and while he is not out of work, his career is not on the level you’d expect.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare did fairly well, but his Warhammer 40,000 project is possibly in jeopardy, leaving him with The Highlander reboot and nothing else, it remains to be seen how Cavill and the crew will handle one of the most beloved fantasy movies of all time.
Be that as it may, Henry Cavill is still a star for many and an inspiration as well, as he managed to...

Henry Cavill, the iconic Superman actor, is renowned for his chiseled physique and captivating on-screen presence. However, few know that the actor’s journey to self-acceptance was marked by a tumultuous childhood.
Cavill spoke about being bullied by his peers for being overweight, an experience that shattered his confidence. This made him question his self-worth for a long time. The emotional scars lingered, making it difficult for him to accept compliments from his girlfriends.

Henry Cavill had previously spoken about his unpleasant formative years and the bullying he faced in childhood. In an older interview (as per Essentially Sports), the actor was asked about this incident and a supposed nickname he had.

“Hey Netflix, can you send me all your snacks?” I asked.
Amazingly, the streamer actually tried, and it was soon clear I had made a terrible mistake. Netflix actually has a lot of official branded snacks and drinks in the U.S., and even more internationally, to “offer fans an opportunity to experience their favorite shows beyond the screen.” The sheer number of snacks quickly became apparent as one delivery driver after another started ringing the doorbell and shoving boxes into my arms, like some snack-overwhelm version of Hogwarts sending endless copies of their wizard school acceptance letter. Mercifully, some of Netflix’s limited time promotional items were no longer in stock. Also, the streamer’s most posh items weren’t sent (so no $59 Bridgerton Floral Petit mascarpone mini-cakes).
Still, I was able to research the online reactions to the streamer’s extensive food and beverage tie-in line while personally...

The hype for One Piece’s live-action adaptation increased manifolds following the success of the first season. It was Netflix’s most successful attempt at an adaptation at such a grand scale after seeing a constant streak of back-to-back failures. The series managed to hit two birds with one stone. On one hand, it was a ship sailing through the East Blue satisfying every fan and on the other, it was a huge ball in the court of live-action adaptations for anime.

The Witcher series began humbly when author Andrzej Sapkowski published a short story about a monster-fighting warrior named Geralt of Rivia in the Polish magazine Fantastyka back in 1986. Nearly 40 years later, Sapkowski has written many stories along with several Witcher novels, and he's still at it. Speaking to Chimeres, the author confirmed that he's finished yet another book about Geralt. "I finished the book," he said. "It took me maybe two years, something like this.“
We've known that Sapkowski was working on a new Witcher book for awhile. According to Redanian Intelligence, the plan is for the book to come out this winter. If it's already finished, there's no reason to think that won't come to pass.
We don't have a title for the new book yet, nor do we have a synopsis. All we know is that it will star Geralt of Rivia. “The book is directly about Geralt,...

Producers and directors alike rarely mention Indie games regarding a potential TV adaptation. It’s a shame. For all the hype Aaa games get, so many are busts while hidden gems circulate in the shadows of anonymity outside hardcore gaming circles.
To be fair, many Indies are nearly impossible to translate into TV shows, not without fundamentally stripping the game of everything it is and reassembling something entirely different.
Everyone knows how much gamers love that idea. Take “Unpacking,” for instance. It’s a game about just that — unpacking and decorating a home. Netflix’s Dream Home Makeover covers that quite well without an adaptation.

Alas, in the midst of Fallout, Halo, The Witcher, and upcoming TV adaptations like God of War, Indies are relegated to the back shelf, at least for now.
But that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few Indie...

There is very little that Henry Cavill was not willing to do – or sacrifice, for that matter – for Netflix’s live-action adaptation of The Witcher. The fantasy series adapted from Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski’s literary series was one of the few rare privileges awarded to the actor before his attachment was unceremoniously and tragically cut short. But that saga has already been ranted about extensively.

The primary reason why Cavill is still so heavily involved in the discourse surrounding The Witcher can be chalked up to fan nostalgia. Only a handful of actors in the history of Hollywood have been so aware, immersed, and informed about the role that they were destined to play. Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool comes to mind, the other being Cavill as Geralt of Rivia.

The situation between Beau DeMayo and Marvel Studios quickly escalated after the X-Men ’97 showrunner bashed Marvel for removing his writing credits. Marvel maintained that they parted ways with the writer amicably but changed their tone after DeMayo’s public accusation. Marvel claimed that DeMayo was fired over egregious findings during an internal investigation against him.

Nothing seems to come easy for Marvel these days, does it folks? The House of Ideas is back to ruling the box office thanks to "Deadpool & Wolverine," a billion-dollar hit that cheerily ridicules the Marvel Cinematic Universe for its many failures since "Avengers: Endgame." Meanwhile, the animated series "X-Men '97" (a continuation of the beloved '90s "X-Men" cartoon) has become one of the best-reviewed Marvel projects ever -- an achievement that is somewhat dampened by the ongoing feud between the company and the series' creator and former showrunner, Beau DeMayo.
The news broke that DeMayo had been fired from "X-Men '97" a mere week before the show premiered, with the enthusiastic response to season 1 only raising further questions about why Marvel cut ties with him in such an abrupt and dramatic fashion. The creative, for his part, had avoided discussing the issue publicly until Thursday, August 15, when he posted a message to Twitter.

Basing a show’s success on viewer satisfaction is a tricky proposition.
TV history is rife with bizarre and nonsensical occasions that make sense only within the numbers — sometimes, not even then.
Firefly is a legendary example of this. It had a loyal fanbase and critical acclaim, but Fox nonetheless cut its legs out from under it.
(Helen Sloan/HBO)
There are countless instances of relatively popular programs ending on massive cliffhangers, never to return.
Then there are the shows that audiences hate, yet a new season is in the works each and every year.
There’s a great deal of head-scratching here, so the ultimate answer is yes.
A show can succeed if viewers aren’t satisfied, and for several reasons that make more sense in context. The virulent nature of news, audience vs critical reactions, and, of course, money play their roles.

The second season of House of the Dragon is over and we likely won't see season 3 until sometime in 2026. But we will get to revisit Westeros before that. Next year, HBO will debut a new Game of Thrones prequel series called A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, based on the Tales of Dunk and Egg novellas by George R.R. Martin.
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is an altogether smaller story than we saw in either Game of Thrones oder House of the Dragon. There's no massive war afoot; there's just a very tall knight named Ser Duncan the Tall and his diminuitive squire Egg, who wander the Seven Kingdoms having adventures. The first season will be based on Martin's story "The Hedge Knight," which begins with Dunk entering himself into a tournament in Ashford Meadow in the Reach. There he'll meet a variety of characters, including a member of...

Henry Cavill was last seen as a Wolverine variant in Deadpool & Wolverine, one of the plethora of surprising cameos that made its way to the movie. One of the most notable faces of Hollywood, Cavill has had a stellar career in the industry, with roles on multiple major franchises and one-hits.

However, of late, things have not gone as planned. Playing starring roles in the likes of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and Argylle, Cavill has not managed the kind of success he has generally been associated with, which has also seemingly put his ambitious Warhammer 40,000 adaptation in constant flux.
However, the potential success of the upcoming Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 may yet have a positive impact. It might as well save Cavill’s plans still, even if things might still depend on a range of external factors.

‘Emily in Paris’ fans who like the title character’s fashion sense will have an easier time of finding her wardrobe, thanks to a new partnership between Netflix and Google.
Netflix subscribers can scan Emily’s styles in season four and find similar pieces by scanning her looks with Google Lens, the feature that helps users do image searches on the web. Fans who use the Netflix ad tier will also see so-called “pause ads” that prompt them top scan an image on screen that takes them to a specific “shopping” page that highlights some of Emily’s clothes and accessories. Special commericals that run will nod to Emily’s photo talents. Google will also serve as the title sponsor of the fourth season of the series and will advertise in its previous three seasons.

Want to dress like Emily Cooper in the Netflix series Emily In Paris? Netflix and Google have struck a deal to help make that happen.
In a multifaceted partnership deal, Google will become the title sponsor of Emily In Paris, including the just-released season four, as well as earlier seasons (the first time Netflix library seasons have gained a title sponsor).
In addition, all Netflix members (regardless of whether they are on the advertising plan or not) will be able to use Google Lens to scan Emily’s looks from the season and be directed to similar fashion items that they can purchase.
For users on the ad plan, the partnership will include the title sponsorship, pause ads that encourage users to use Google Lens to scan the screen, and 15-second commercial spots, which will see Lily Collins reprise her role as Emily using Google Lens to help with fashion shopping.
