The Batman looks to be focused on Gotham City's long history of crime and corruption, so we're diving into the city's key crime figure, Carmine Falcone, and his possible connections to Bruce Wayne, Selina Kyle and the Riddler.
During The Batman director Matt Reeves’ appearance during the DC FanDome event, and with a keen eye on corporate synergy, he discussed the upcoming Gotham P.D. live-action series that will debut on HBO Max (timing for that one is TBD but we can safely bet it will be alongside The Batman’s theatrical launch next fall). Up until now the only thing we knew about the show was that it would be overseen by Reeves and Terrence Winter, who created Boardwalk Empire for HBO and wrote the script for Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street. Tonight, …
Darren Aronofsky and his production company Protozoa Pictures have just secured the rights to adapt David Gauvey Herbert’s New York Magazine article “Boss of The Beach” into a series with Searchlight Television.

It was also, as glimpsed through Sorrentino's auteristic lense, very weird. Pius …
A new Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker trailer heavily suggests Emperor Palpatine was the one behind Kylo Ren's corruption all along.
Marvel's X-Men relaunch has revealed its darkest secret yet: Charles Xavier has been secretly corrupted - and isn't the man fans thought.
Star Wars fans are in for a treat, now that Snoke's training of Kylo Ren reveals a connection to Dagobah, and Luke Skywalker's first test.
I never thought I'd see a trailer that reminded me of Training Day, John Wick, and RoboCop all at the same time, but Screen Gems' Black & Blue has managed to do just that. And that's not a bad thing!
