I was at CCXP in São Paulo, Brazil, covering the event for ScreenRant, and got to see the final trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms live! The room was packed and everyone was so excited. You can check out the trailer below!
The new Game of Thrones spin-off, A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, follows the adventures of Sir Duncan the Tall, nicknamed “Dunk” (played by Peter Claffey), and his young apprentice, Egg (Dexter Sol Ansell). The show will debut on HBO Max in January, and plans for a second season are already underway.
Many families have unique holiday traditions, and a surprisingly popular one – especially for those without fireplaces – is watching “The Yule Log,” a TV program that simply shows a looping video of a crackling fire.
As of today, Predator: Badlands has earned $174.4 million around the world. This success has brought the long-standing competition between Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone back into the spotlight. Stallone successfully revived his Rocky series with Creed in 2015, which also performed very well in theaters. However, Predator: Badlands has now surpassed Creed’s earnings, having made $174.1 million during its time in cinemas. Both films significantly outperformed the original Predator, which earned $98 million worldwide in 1987 (not adjusted for inflation).
Gillian Anderson, known for The X-Files, and Lena Headey, famous for Game of Thrones, star in a Western set in the past. They play enemies battling over land, and their conflict comes to a dramatic head in the first season finale of Abandons. In a conversation with Tatiana Hullender from ScreenRant, Anderson and Headey talked about the surprising ending of the episode and shared their hopes for their characters if the show continues with a second season.
The new show, starring Lena Headey (from Game of Thrones) and Gillian Anderson (The X-Files), focuses on two determined women fighting for control in the rough and tumble Washington Territory of the 1850s. However, despite this premise, it hasn’t been well-received by audiences or critics. Nick Schager of The Daily Beast even criticized it as a weaker imitation of Yellowstone.
I was looking at Google’s year-end report – you know, the one showing what everyone was searching for in 2025. They highlighted the anime that really took off in Japan this year, and while some of the usual suspects made the list, I was surprised to see Netflix’s The Summer Hikaru Died in the top 10. Here’s Google’s full list of the trending anime from 2025 if you’re interested.
Disney+ has officially weighed in on the debate about whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie. They included the action film in a recent Instagram post showcasing 21 holiday movies available on the streaming service, clearly signaling their position.
Mike Flanagan has worked on both original TV stories and adaptations of existing material, but he’s become particularly well-known for turning Stephen King’s novels into visual media. He’s directed adaptations of titles like Doctor Sleep, Gerald’s Game, and The Life of Chuck, and now he’s adapting another Stephen King book as a television series.
Only Chandra Wilson and James Pickens Jr. have been on Grey’s Anatomy consistently since the beginning. Ellen Pompeo still appears occasionally and continues to narrate the show.
