James Gunn has responded to fan disappointment with the Peacemaker Season 2 finale, admitting that the ending didn’t please everyone.

Filming for Season 3 of House of the Dragon has finished after six months at Leavesden Studios in England. Now that shooting is complete, the show is entering the post-production phase and is expected to be released in summer 2026 (according to Redanian Intelligence).

Is there any truth to the claims? Here is a breakdown.

While hosting a watch party for the Peacemaker Season 2 finale on Threads, James Gunn, co-CEO of DC Studios, clarified the status of the Blue Beetle character. He explained he hadn’t promised Blue Beetle would appear in the finale, but suggested there’s a possibility Xolo Maridueña could reprise the role in future DC Universe projects. Blue Beetle was not featured in the Season 2 finale of Peacemaker.

Many dubbed anime characters come across as flat, and it’s usually not the writing’s fault. The problem is that important nuances often get lost when translating and adapting the dialogue. For example, the English dubs of characters like Light Yagami and Vash the Stampede either made them seem less intimidating, amplified their quirks in an unnatural way, or reduced their complexity to simple stereotypes. These aren’t necessarily *bad* voice acting performances, but they highlight how voice direction and localization can drastically alter a story’s impact on the audience.

A recently released children’s book based on *Zootopia 2* may have hinted at the movie’s still-secret villain. Fans on Reddit noticed that the book introduces a new character named Pawbert, who appears to be the new threat Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde must confront.

As someone who regularly attends Halloween Horror Nights, I recently tried Universal Horror Unleashed and was really impressed. It’s a great alternative to the theme park experience if you’re looking for a scare! I spoke with the show’s director, Nate Stevenson, and TJ Mannarino, Vice President of Entertainment Art & Design, who explained how Horror Unleashed differs from the traditional Horror Nights event. Stevenson shared that:

According to a report from the fan account CentroLeaks, Junichi Masuda is no longer directing *Pokémon* video games. This change reportedly happened after disagreements within Game Freak, culminating in a confrontation with art director Ken Sugimori. Sources say this occurred during the development of *Pokémon X* and *Y*, and led to a decision that Masuda would no longer lead game development.

Season 1 of *Landman* also featured Jon Hamm and Demi Moore as Monty and Cami Miller, a powerful couple in the Texas oil world. Despite their star power, they didn’t appear as much as some viewers anticipated. However, the trailer for the next season suggests Cami Miller will have a much larger role, responding to feedback from the first season and significantly developing her character.

The trailer for *It: Welcome to Derry* (available below) came with a simple warning: “Run.” That makes sense, considering the people of Derry face an unbelievably terrifying evil. The trailer is full of blood, violence, and destruction, offering the first hints of a story that feels more connected to Stephen King’s original novel. It expands on the history of the terrifying clown and also explores social issues from the 1960s.
