Back in April, Netflix confirmed that its Castlevania anime series would end with its fourth season, but a report claimed that the show wouldn't be the end of the wider universe. Netflix has now confirmed that it has a Castlevania spinoff series in the pipeline, one that will be set much (much) later than the first series.
In summer 2019, Netflix announced an upcoming original series called The Cuphead Show that, as its title suggests, is based on the hit game Cuphead. The series will be a comedy that features the same retro art style as the game, which was inspired by the Fleischer cartoons of the 1930s. Fast-forward two years and Netflix has finally released a teaser trailer for the show.
It's safe to say that the first season Netflix's The Witcher series was a pleasant surprise for a lot of fans of the franchise. Season 2 is on the way, and today we received the very first teaser trailer for it. On top of that, Netflix and CD Projekt also announced that they're teaming up to hold the first-ever WitcherCon next month.
When Netflix started releasing She-Ra back in 2018, it seemed inevitable that they'd include He-Man in some form or another. As it turned out, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power was fantastic enough - and gathered a fanbase massive enough - that it needed no assistance from the likes of its original co-brand. At the same time, Netflix decided it wanted to go ahead and create another show based on the original toy line, this time literally picking up where the original 1980's TV show (based on the toys) left off.
Almost anyone and everyone have a streaming service these days, mostly revolving around brands and properties. There are, of course, some that are focused on specific themes, especially sports. Among those, FuboTV is probably at the top of the list for its selection of sports live TV streaming content but, despite its popularity, it has been noticeably absent on at least one platform. That has finally changed and owners of LG's latest smart TV will finally have accesso to FuboTV, if they're willing to pay the price, of course.
Rob Zombie confirmed this afternoon that he'd be working on "The Munsters : A Rob Zombie Film". This is real - a Universal Studios big-screen movie production, complete with the original "The Munsters" TV show logo. Did you expect a movie like this to be made here in the year 2021? How is it all going to work?
Disney released its antihero movie Cruella in late May and it has already proven a success for the company. Disney reports that it is 'very pleased' with the movie's success thus far, including 'strong' performance on the Disney+ Premier Access streaming platform. It's no surprise, then, that Disney is already looking to the future with a sequel in the early stages of development.
It's been a somewhat eventful week for the Borderlands movie in development at Lionsgate. Earlier in the week, Lionsgate released a teaser that gave us a "first look" at Cate Blanchett's Lilith. There was just one problem: it was only a silhouette, and while the details that we could see suggested that Lilith's movie look closely resembles Lilith's game look, we were mostly left to our imaginations. Now, Lionsgate has done something similar for the entire cast.
Tomorrow, June 4, will bring the premiere of hotly anticipated and previously delayed supernatural horror movie The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It. The movie is distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, which is sticking with its hybrid theater/streaming launch approach for 2021. If you still don't feel comfortable heading to the theaters, you'll instead be able to watch the show with an HBO Max subscription.
The premiere of several major television shows and new seasons of shows were revealed this week by FX. The FX Networks group revealed the release date for Season 12 of Archer, season 3 of the vampire comedy What We Do In The Shadows, and new content from the American Horror Story universe. That includes a new bit of content called American Horror Story: Double Feature, and FX American Horror Stories.
Last year as the pandemic radically changed the way people live, many joked that 2021 could only get worse if an alien invasion took place. Though that's unlikely to happen, the year has brought an unexpected twist: increasing reports about UFOs, a planned unclassified government report about them, and Oreo preparing a just-in-case cookie offering for aliens.
Warner Media today launched an ad-supported subscription tier for its streaming service, HBO Max. This ad-supported tier has been in the works for quite some time, and now that it's here, it allows people to subsidize their subscription cost by injecting ads into the content they watch. As you might imagine, there are a few provisos that go along with the less expensive ad-supported tier, but with HBO promising fewer ads-per-hour than its competitors, it isn't all bad news.
