Spider-Man: Brand New Day is turning Peter Parker’s corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe into a street-level saga. Set four years after the reality-altering finale of Spider-Man: No Way Home, the film follows an isolated Peter Parker (Tom Holland) as he rebuilds his life while confronting villains pulled straight from the deep cuts of Spider-Man […]
Since bursting onto screens in 2014, John Wick redefined what mainstream action cinema could look like, turning Keanu Reeves into the genre’s most bankable modern icon. Built around director Chad Stahelski’s background as a stunt performer, the franchise pioneered a hyper-choreographed fighting style that fans and critics alike dubbed gun-fu, blending firearms, martial arts, and […]

The franchise establishes very early that John Connor plays a pivotal role in humanity’s war against the machines, and their attempt to kill him before he can become a threat to them is what effectively kicks off the entire […]
Spider-Man: Brand New Day is shaping up to be one of the biggest chapters in the Multiverse Saga, reuniting Peter Parker (Tom Holland) with returning threats like Mac Gargan/Scorpion (Michael Mando) and introducing new faces such as Tombstone (Marvin Jones III) and Damage Control chief William Metzger (Tramell Tillman).

The nearly three-minute preview pays off that anticipation, reintroducing Doctor Doom (Robert Downey […]
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is destined to change after Avengers: Secret Wars. Marvel Studios has lost its shine a little during the Multiverse Saga, with a transmedia push that wasn’t entirely successful. Now, the studio is regrouping, with the MCU’s current plans running all the way to 2042. Secret Wars is expected to reboot the […]
Blue Lock wasted little time in becoming one of the biggest sports anime franchises of all time. First arriving in 2018 as a manga from creators Muneyuki Kaneshiro and Yusuke Nomura, the series hasn’t just continued to release new chapters to this day; it has also had a major impact on the soccer world. During […]
Since 2002, three actors have played a live-action Spider-Man on film. All three of them have played a variant of Peter Parker.
