The first MCU series is almost upon us and Disney+ has released the first trailer for WandaVision. Though The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was supposed to be the first live-action MCU series to hit Disney's streaming service, pandemic shuffles have pushed up the trippy take on what's next for Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda, aka Scarlet Witch, and Paul Bettany's Vision.

During today's ComicCon@Home panel, Amazon released the first trailer for Utopia, the streaming service's remake of the massively popular UK black comedy conspiracy-thriller series.

Fans of big-budget, adult-focused, original, intelligent genre films rejoice! Christopher Nolan is here with another trailer for his upcoming mind-bender, Tenet. The film stars John David Washington (BlacKkKlansman), Robert Pattinson (High Life), and Elizabeth Debicki (Widows).
