I just got a sneak peek at how Hawkeye is being introduced in the new animated series for little kids, and it’s so cute! Nick A. Fisher is doing the voice, which is awesome. He’ll first appear in an episode called ‘The Tale of Hawkeye’ this Friday on Disney Junior, and then it’ll be available on Disney+ starting November 12th. The clip they showed has Hawkeye joining forces with all the other heroes, bow and arrows and everything! It looks like a lot of fun.

As a big Pokémon fan, I’ve learned that leveling up isn’t everything when it comes to battling, especially if you’re serious about competitive play. What really matters is a Pokémon’s stats, what it’s strong and weak against, and what moves it knows. It also depends on how a Pokémon works with the special battle features of each game – things like Mega Evolution or Dynamaxing. And here’s a neat trick: in competitive battles, everyone’s Pokémon are automatically set to level 50, so grinding beyond that is usually just for learning new moves!

Stephen King is a hugely popular author with many iconic novels like It, Salem’s Lot, The Stand, and Pet Sematary. He’s also one of the most frequently adapted writers in history, with lots of his stories becoming well-loved movies and TV shows. However, his epic Dark Tower series, known for its complexity and creativity, hasn’t had a truly successful adaptation. The 2017 film starring Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey attempted it, but critics disliked it – it only received a 16% rating on Rotten Tomatoes – and it strayed so far from the source material that it hardly felt like The Dark Tower at all.

Insiders say the next Mummy movie will ignore everything that happened in The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. This makes sense, as that 2008 film received very poor reviews (only 13% on Rotten Tomatoes). While Luke Ford probably won’t reprise his role as Alex O’Connell, he might still appear. He was originally introduced as a child in The Mummy Returns and played by Freddie Boath, leaving the door open for a return in some capacity.

James Garfield was known as a down-to-earth, honest man who always stood up for what he believed in, even when it was unpopular. He never sought the presidency, but his integrity resonated with people, and he unexpectedly won the election. Meanwhile, the man who would later shoot him had lived a very different life, and their fateful encounter would change history forever.

The trailer opens with FBI Agent Alden Parker (Gary Cole) announcing an inmate has escaped. It then reveals the case is one of the early investigations led by Gibbs, showing him as both his current self (played by Mark Harmon) and as a younger version, portrayed by Austin Stowell, in flashbacks.

More to come.

As a longtime DC fan, I’ve read a lot of their comics, and for me, the 80s were a golden age. That’s when the stories really started to get sophisticated, aimed at an older audience, and the artists were given so much freedom to express themselves. There were tons of great books back then, but if I had to pick the ten absolute best that really defined that era, here they are!

According to a recent report, the Harry Potter series will not have a narrator at all.

Alan Ritchson will star in the action comedy Playdate, which also features Kevin James, Sarah Chalke, and Alan Tudyk. The movie centers around two dads whose simple playdate for their sons is disrupted when dangerous mercenaries start pursuing them. With Ritchson’s likable personality and broad appeal, Playdate is expected to be a hit, giving his fans something to watch while they wait for the next season of Reacher.
