Focus Features also released a brief summary of Obsession alongside the trailer on YouTube.

Okay, so I just saw some interesting new merch photos from MyTimeToShine, and it’s got me even more hyped for the upcoming movie! It’s a Spider-Man backpack, which is cool enough on its own, but look closer! Hidden in the shadows behind Spidey are what appear to be silhouettes of characters like Hulk and Scorpion. It’s a subtle tease, but definitely suggests we’re going to see a lot more team-ups and maybe even some villains we weren’t expecting. A clever way to hint at what’s coming, if you ask me!

The Chucky TV show, which aired on USA and Syfy, ended after three violent seasons two years ago, but the actor who plays Tiffany says that doesn’t mean the infamous, seemingly indestructible killer doll is finished with causing trouble – or using strong language.

In the sixth episode of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, Nus Braka cleverly defeated Captain Nahla Ake (Holly Hunter), resulting in a major setback for the United Federation of Planets. Braka used a group of dangerous, cannibalistic hybrids called the Furies to lure and hold cadets from Starfleet Academy and the War College hostage aboard the abandoned USS Miyazaki, skillfully manipulating Captain Ake, Admiral Charles Vance (Oded Fehr), and the entire Federation.

Those who doubted Jackson were quickly proven wrong when The Lord of the Rings became a huge critical and commercial hit, and it continues to be popular today.

Rachel Leishman spoke with Layton about his film, Crime 101, and he admitted it was a challenge to cast Mark Ruffalo as a detective. Ruffalo has often played characters in positions of authority, but Layton emphasized he prioritized having such a talented actor over concerns about audiences being reminded of his previous roles.

The sequel to Zootopia has become a box office hit, surpassing Toy Story 3 in domestic earnings. Both films have grossed around $415 million, but Zootopia 2 currently has a slight lead of $150,000. The animated movie is now aiming to beat The Lion King‘s domestic record of $423 million. However, it’s unlikely to become the highest-grossing animated film overall, as that title currently belongs to 2024’s Inside Out 2, which earned a remarkable $652 million.
