Rick and Morty news about Season 7. Of course, we don't have a hard date, but we can speculate it'll probably come out September, October of this year. But the most important news: Justin Roiland has still not be invited back into the fold, giving rise to speculation that he is probably already been replaced.

Will Ferrell Circling John Madden Role
Will Ferrell to play John Madden? I never thought that would be a sentence. But with a renewed interest in telling the Madden story, we could potential see a John Madden movie, on Amazon, in the coming years.

John Wick 5 in Early Development
John Wick 5 anyone?
JW5 is already in early development, along with Ballerina, Sofia Al-Azwar movie, and a Mel Gibson The Continental lead tv series. So apparently were going to be getting a John Wick Cinematic Universe on par with Marvel. (Is that a good thing?)
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/john-wick-5-lionsgate-development-1235403474/
P.S. I know I mispronounced cadence, of course after this was after I rehearsed saying it, recorded it, and already well into the editing process.

Spider-Man 2 Reveal Trailer and Gameplay Trailer
PlayStation revealed Spider-Man 2 at PlayStation State of Play.
Game looks like it will be great sequel with no super major changes to how the game plays. With the exception of the Venom suit and the changes to combat that it brings.
But the most exciting thing about the reveal trailer and the gameplay trailer is the New York map. I don't know if it'll just be for a few missions or if Sony's going to give us two, maybe three, boroughs to play in. Greatly changing our ways of fighting and sneak attacking our enemies.
Also, it seems like story wise it'll be kinda of like Spider-Man. Will be given our main antagonist, i.e. Kraven, who will be hunting friends and foes of Spider-Man across New York. Then I suspect near the end of the game to have the villain change into Venom. Possibly paving the way for a ultimately showdown, maybe with some more Sinister Six.

Indiana Jones 5 Worst Reviewed in the Franchise
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is the worst reviewed in the franchise. I'm completely aghast, how could James Mangold create a movie worst than Crystal Skull?

Disney's Economic Issue
The media state that Ron DeSantis is losing to Disney, and that Bob Iger is the greatest CEO in history. Yet, Bob Iger is just saving Disney money, by riding the company of dead weight and cancelling worthless building projects.

Searching for Superman
The search for Superman is getting closer, as casting couch has begun to shrink and a few noticeable actors are now being zeroed in.
One thing that we do know is that WB loves, apparently, Nicholas Hoult and are eyeing him to play Lex Luthor. Interesting. Not my first pick, but...it's not Jesse Eisenberg.

Archer to End with S14
Sad news on the animation front, Archer will end with season 14.

KK 'Rogue Squadron Still on the Books'
Kathleen Kennedy says that Rogue Squadron, and Patty Jenkins directing it, are still on the books. Rogue Squadron was one of many projects that were shelved or cancelled. KK says it wasn't cancelled, but put aside until Wonder Woman 3 was finished. Now that Patty doesn't have anything coming up, it seems Rogue Squadron is back!

Mortal Kombat 2 Cast Karl Urban
Mortal Kombat 2 cast Karl Urban as Johnny Cage. I believe that Karl Urban can pull of this role, being sarcastically charming is right up his alley. Now he is older than Johnny Cage is usually portrayed, not that Karl Urban can't pull it off, but this is also film, where they can take the story in multiple directions.

Aquaman Speculation, Again
Yay, more speculation on whether Jason Momoa will stay as Aquaman or not. Yet, this time it was speculation created by Peter Safran.
Either way, the movie has been denounced for being boring and the 'worst DCEU movie, yet.'

The Flash Praised at CinemaCon
The Flash is praised at CinemaCon, but for some reason I'm getting Rings of Power feel. Also, is it just me or does the trailers make this seem more like Batman & The Flash, than an actual Flash movie.

CinemaCon Showcase Aquaman Trailer
CinemaCon showcasted Aquaman trailer, and it was a little underwhelming. Also, Amber is confirmed to still be in the movie, and not just a little, but the whole film.
Either way, will James Gunn show as much love to Aquaman as he is to the Flash, probably not.

Venture Bros. Return with ‘Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart’
It's been five years of dread and sadness that the great series Venture Bros. is coming to a end. At first after the merger by WB and Discovery I assumed it was cancelled and lost to time. But the Venture Bros. is coming back, for one more outing as a movie: 'Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart.'
Then...no more. Which is saddest part. Remember to watch this movie when it comes out, and maybe we can get Discovery to extend it on HBO, as Venture Bros. was cancelled by the old heads of Adult Swim and AT&T Warner Bros.

Russo Brothers Interested in DC
Russo Brothers would join the DCU in a heartbeat, Gunn just has to ask.
But what would they direct? I think The Authority could be a great project for them, and bring in Markus and McFeely, who wrote all four of the Russo Marvel Movies.

Harry Potter Announcement and More
Harry Potter has been official announced for Max, HBO's newest incarnation. The show will take place over ten seasons, but seems to still following the formula of one season per book. Meaning three of the seasons will probably be post-books, I assume.

Harry Potter tv series, probably the easiest slam dunk in the history of slam dunks. But, like always, WBD had a gun and immediately aimed it at their foot.

Disney to remake Lilo & Stitch, which has been in the pipeline since 2018. So outside of a few casting updates, they hope to start production soon, possible July of 2023.
