Wicked defied gravity when it came out in November 2024! Now, the long-awaited Broadway-inspired film, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, has officially hit a streaming service. According to IMDb, the film is “a vivid reimagining of the classic The Wizard of Oz, Wicked spotlights the untold stories of Oz’s most famous (or infamous) characters, namely the Wicked Witch of the West and her unlikely friend, Glinda the Good Witch. The show follows green-skinned star Elphaba from birth to college and through the life-changing events which eventually label her ‘wicked,’ introducing spoiled rich girl Glinda, local prince and heartthrob Fiyero and even the Wizard of Oz himself, a troubled man very unlike the one you may remember.”

It continues: “As Elphaba, a passionate political activist if there ever was one, fights injustice and seeks to undo the mistakes of the past, dark secrets, and personal tragedies shape the history of Oz, paying homage to the classic Wizard of Oz story while simultaneously changing fans’ understanding of it forever. A cautionary tale about love, friendship, and trust, Wicked effortlessly reveals that there are indeed two sides to every story.”

The film has been highly anticipated, not only for its star-studded cast but also for its memorable songs and compelling storyline. Fans of the musical know the story is expansive, raising the question: when can viewers expect its second film Wicked: For Good?

Brand New Day’ — 2026 Release Date, Cast & More – Hollywood Life

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is set for a 2026 release. The fourth installment was almost a sure thing after the mega-success of Spider-Man: No Way Home, which came out on December 17, 2021, and made over $1.9 billion at the worldwide box office. The movie became the seventh highest-grossing movie of all time at the worldwide box office and the third highest-grossing movie of all time at the domestic box office.

So, what do we know about Spider-Man: Brand New Day? Hollywood Life has rounded up all the news you need to know about Spider-Man 4.

What We Know About Spider-Man: Brand New Day

Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed Spider-Man 4 ahead of the release of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. “All I will say is that we have the story. We have big ideas for that, and our writers are just putting pen to paper now,” Kevin told EW about the fourth Spider-Man film in an interview that was published on February 14, 2023. Kevin didn’t divulge any details about the plot for Spider-Man 4, but this is an exciting update nonetheless.

Amy had previously noted that more Spider-Man movies were in the works. “This is not the last movie that we are going to make with Marvel – [this is not] the last Spider-Man movie,” Amy revealed to Fandango while promoting No Way Home. “We are getting ready to make the next Spider-Man movie with Tom Holland and Marvel. We’re thinking of this as three films, and now we’re going to go onto the next three. This is not the last of our MCU movies.”

A few weeks after Amy’s Fandango interview, Kevin revealed to the New York Times, “Amy and I and Disney and Sony are talking about — yes, we’re actively beginning to develop where the story heads next, which I only say outright because I don’t want fans to go through any separation trauma like what happened after Far From Home. That will not be occurring this time.”

During an October 2024 interview with The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Tom Holland confirmed that the cast has a filming date set. He shared, “Next summer, we start shooting. Everything’s good to go. We’re nearly there.”

Spider-Man: Brand New Day 2026 Release Date

Spider-Man; Brand New Day will hit theaters on July 31, 2026.

Will Tom Holland Return As Spider-Man?

Tom is suiting up again as everyone’s friendly neighborhood Spider-Man! Previously, however, there were some doubts over whether or not he’d return.

Ahead of No Way Home’s release, the actor was mulling over his future as the superhero. “Maybe it is time for me to move on,” he told GQ. “Maybe what’s best for Spider-Man is that they do a Miles Morales film. I have to take Peter Parker into account as well, because he is an important part of my life.” He added, “If I’m playing Spider-Man after I’m 30, I’ve done something wrong.”

Tom later backtracked on his words and said he had been “misconstrued.” He told Extra, “I don’t know what the future of Spider-Man looks like. I don’t know whether I’m going to be a part of it. Spider-Man will always live on in me, and I know that [producer] Amy [Pascal] and the studio are keen to figure out what the next chapter of Spider-Man looks like. If that happens to be with me, then that’s very exciting but, you know, if it’s time for me to walk away then I’ll do so proudly.”

He continued, “What I was referring to, in that interview, it’s because I would be taking up an opportunity for someone to come in and change what being Spider-Man means. Spider-Man could be more diverse, it could be a female character, it could be anything.”

Amy made sure to make it clear that the future of Spider-Man definitely includes Tom. “As long as he wants to make Spider-Man movies, we will make Spider-Man movies,” Amy told Variety at the No Way Home premiere. “But I’m a producer, and I always think everything is going to work out. If I have my way we will.”

Most recently, Tom suffered a mild concussion while filming Spider-Man: Brand New Day on September 19, 2025 at Leavesden Studios in the UK, according to The Sun and Deadline. The injury earned him a hospital visit and a short filming pause.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day Cast & Crew

In addition to Tom, you can expect Spider-Man fan favorites like Zendaya‘s MJ, Jacob Batalon’s Ned, and Jon Favreau’s Happy to return for Spider-Man 4. Sony chairman Tom Rothman told Deadline that it was his “hope” to have the “whole group” back for a fourth film, including director Jon Watts.

Per Deadline, Stranger Things star Sadie Sink is set to join the cast. The outlet speculates that she may play Jean Grey from X-Men or another well-known red-haired Spider-Man character.

It hasn’t been confirmed which villain Peter Parker/Spider-Man will battle next, but it could be Venom, played by Tom Hardy. In the post-credits scene for Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Eddie and Venom are in a hotel room when they are transported into the MCU. In the new room, Venom notices the television screen. It’s J. Jonah Jameson revealing Peter Parker is Spider-Man. Venom is entranced by Peter and licks the screen.

“We’ll have to see,” Venom director Ruben Fleischer told CinemaBlend about a possible crossover film. “I mean, it would be honestly a dream come true to have those two worlds converge. It’ll be a formidable battle between those two characters, so… whether or not I direct it, I’ll certainly be excited to see it.”

What Happened at the End Of Spider-Man: No Way Home?

Spider-Man: No Way Home started with Quentin Beck/Mysterio exposing Peter’s identity as Spider-Man. Peter decided to go to Dr. Strange for help. Strange began to cast a spell that would make everyone forget Peter is Spider-Man, but Peter messed with the spell when wanted to make a last-minute adjustment with his loved ones keeping their memories.

Strange’s corrupted spell brings people from the multiverse who know Spider-Man’s identity into their universe. Villains from previous Spider-Man films like Willem Dafoe’s Norman Osborn, Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock, and Jamie Foxx’s Electro all show up. Strange preps to reverse the corrupted spell and send the villains back to their original universes. Peter, always asking a bit too much, wants to cure the villains so they can possibly change their fates when they get back home.

Strange refuses to go along with Peter’s plan, so Peter steals the spell and traps Strange in the Mirror Dimension. As Peter is working on the cure, the Green Goblin took back control of Norman and set off a chain of events that leads to Aunt May’s death.

Ned and MJ use Strange’s sling ring to try and find Peter after May’s death. However, instead of finding their peter, they discover alternate versions of Peter from other universes. These Peters are Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield, who starred in their own Spider-Man films. The three Parkers ultimately work together to help cure the villains.

They devise a plan to lure the villains to the Statue of Liberty. Like always, the Green Goblin just has to stir up some chaos. When MJ falls from the Statue of Liberty, Andrew’s Peter gets a chance at redemption. He saves MJ after not being able to save his love Gwen Stacy. With the contained spell, Goblin allows the barriers between universes to break apart, allowing others who know Peter’s identity into his world.

Peter comes to the conclusion that the only way to save the multiverse is to erase Peter Parker from everyone’s memory, including his loved ones. Strange casts the spell, but Peter promises MJ and Ned that he will find them. After the spell is cast, everyone returns to their universes, with the elder Peters bidding farewell to the young Peter. On his way out, Eddie Brock/Sandman accidentally leaves behind a smidge of Venom symbiote.

The movie flashes forward two weeks later. Peter finds MJ working at a coffee shop. She doesn’t recognize him. He’s about to reintroduce himself but ultimately decides not to. Peter goes to visit May’s grave and crosses paths with Happy, who also doesn’t recognize Peter. Peter decides he can’t give up his power, so he creates a new suit and continues to protect the streets of New York City.

The Summer I Turned Pretty movie: Release date speculation and news

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Making the announcement from Paris, France (where the dramatic finale mostly took place), author of the books the show is based on, Jenny Han, shared: “There is another big milestone left in Belly’s journey, and I thought only a movie could give it its proper due.

“I’m so grateful to Prime Video for continuing to support my vision for this story and for making it possible to share this final chapter with the fans.”

Fans of the books will know – spoilers follow – they end with Belly’s marriage to Conrad, so while details of the film’s plot are being kept under tight wraps for now, with production due to start soon, we could safely bet we might see some more wedding planning for the Cousins gang.

Keep this page bookmarked as we keep it updated with the latest news on The Summer I Turned Pretty movie.

When will The Summer I Turned Pretty movie be released?

Lola Tung and Christopher Briney.

So far, there is no confirmed release date for The Summer I Turned Pretty movie after it was announced on 17th September 2025.

The good news is that Jenny Han will be penning the film, which has been dubbed “the final chapter”, but she has suggested fans may have to wait a little while and ruled out a 2026 release.

Han told Variety: “I don’t know when it will be out, but I don’t think it’s safe to say next year because we haven’t filmed it yet. I honestly, really want that extra time, because it’s just getting the actors a little bit closer to adulthood.”

She added: “We’re getting to see Belly at 15, turning 16, and then seeing her as this young woman. And now Lola is 22! I think that I always wanted some distance for the movie, so I’m really glad to get that breathing space.”

We’ll keep this page updated with any information on the release date as we have it.

We don’t yet know who will be in The Summer I Turned Pretty movie, but based on plot speculation, we’d expect to see the following at the very least:

  • Lola Tung playing Belly
  • Christopher Briney playing Conrad
  • Gavin Casalegno playing Jeremiah
  • Sean Kaufman playing Steven
  • Rain Spencer playing Taylor
  • Jackie Chung playing Laurel
  • Tom Everett Scott playing Adam
  • Colin Ferguson playing John

What will The Summer I Turned Pretty movie be about?

At time of writing, there are no confirmed plot details for The Summer I Turned Pretty movie and Han has said she doesn’t yet know how far ahead in time the movie could jump.

However, there’s plenty to speculate about after the thrilling ending to season 3, which saw Belly and Conrad finally get together after years of will-they-won’t-they.

Fans of the books were expecting to see a glimpse of their wedding, which we didn’t get, so it would be safe to assume that will be a central point of the movie.

There were also some unanswered plot points at the end of season 3 which could also be addressed.

Steven (Sean Kaufman) and Taylor (Rain Spencer) were going from strength to strength until there was the small issue that Steven might have to move to San Francisco to start his business. Taylor seemed happy to follow him in the end, but will they last? (We hope so!)

Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno) also found a new love with Denise (Isabella Briggs) so we’d be really interested to see if they last, too!

The Summer I Turned Pretty is available to stream on Prime Video.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is going back to his fighting roots but taking them to the big screen. In A24’s The Smashing Machine, the actor and WWE pro wrestler plays real-life retired fighter Mark Kerr, delivering an emotionally complex performance for the first time in his film career.

Johnson was admittedly “scared” to tackle the role, he revealed on CBS Sunday Morning partly because, up until now, he’s had a reputation of being a box office champ rather than an experienced actor.

“For years, I’ve been dreaming and hoping,” he explained. “My desire was to play not only a dramatic role, but something that I felt like I could really sink my teeth into, and rip myself open. You hear that term. I just didn’t want to do drama. I wanted to do something that really allowed me to do that. … I was chasing something for a lot of years, and what I was chasing was box office. And there’s a part of me, the brain [that goes], ‘Don’t rock the boat. Stay in this zone. Everyone’s happy. You’re paying the bills.’ But the heart is like, ‘Yeah. But you’re not being fulfilled.’”

Here, Hollywood Life has all the details you need to know on Johnson’s highly anticipated performance in The Smashing Machine.

What Is The Smashing Machine About?

The film explores the trials and tribulations of Kerr’s wrestling and MMA career. There is also a documentary of the same name that examines Kerr’s life.

I was chasing something for a lot of years, and what I was chasing was box office,” he said. “And there’s a part of me, the brain [that goes], ‘Don’t rock the boat. Stay in this zone. Everyone’s happy. You’re paying the bills.’ But the heart is like, ‘Yeah. But you’re not being fulfilled

Who Is Mark Kerr? Learn About the Former MMA Fighter

Kerr is a former wrestler and MMA fighter who was a two-time UFC Heavyweight Tournament Champion and a World Vale Tudo Championship tournament winner. His career took him around the world to compete in various championships and competitions.

Kerr has been retired from mixed martial arts and wrestling since 2010.

The Smashing Machine Cast

The main cast of The Smashing Machine features Dwayne as Kerr and Emily Blunt as his wife, Dawn Staples.

When Does The Smashing Machine Premiere? See Release Date

The Smashing Machine will be released in the United States on October 3, 2025.

How to Watch The Smashing Machine: Is it Streaming Yet?

How to Watch & Release Date – Hollywood Life

FX’s The Lowdown reintroduces viewers to Ethan Hawke in a brand-new light. The movie star has had a busy year, with The Black Phone 2 and Blue Moon also set to premiere this season. In The Lowdown, he plays a fictionalized version of late journalist Lee Roy Chapman and stumbles into chaos while unpacking the truth behind a Tulsa-based mystery. The dark comedy series was created by Sterlin Harjo.

Below, Hollywood Life has all the details you need to know about the release date, ensemble cast and more on The Lowdown.

What Is The Lowdown About?

Set in Tulsa, Oklahoma, writer and self-proclaimed “truthstorian” Lee Raybon (loosely based on Chapman), investigates a local murder and learns how risky uncovering the truth really is.

According to FX’s official description of the series, “powerful forces want to prevent Lee from learning anything more” about the mystery in Tulsa.

“When the publication of Lee’s latest exposé – a deep dive into the powerful Washberg family – is immediately followed by the suspicious suicide of Dale Washberg, the black sheep of the family, Lee knows he’s stumbled onto something big,” the description reads. “Following a trail of breadcrumbs Dale has left behind, urging someone to dig deeper into the circumstances surrounding his death, Lee does just that. What Lee finds is that Betty Jo, the grieving widow, seems to be more interested in her brother-in-law Donald Washberg, a gubernatorial candidate, than in her dearly departed. And powerful forces want to prevent Lee from learning anything more.”

Who Is in The Lowdown Cast?

In addition to executive producer and star Ethan, who plays Lee Raybon, the rest of the cast features Ryan Kiera Armstrong as Francis, Kaniehtiio Horn as Samantha, Tim Blake Nelson as Dale Washberg, Jeanne Tripplehorn as Betty Jo, Kyle MacLachlan as Donald Washberg and Keith David as Marty.

Peter Dinklage also appears in the show, though details about his character haven’t been made public.

At the official season 1 premiere of The Lowdown, Ethan explained how relevant the show is today during an interview with Hollywood Life .

“At the moment we’re actually coming out [with this show], truth in journalism and courage that it takes for individuals to care about the truth, to tell the truth, despite great pressures from affluent people to just shut up … the story, while always interesting, is now acutely relevant,” the Sinister star pointed out. “Because journalism is under attack, and it’s really upsetting to all of us, but we don’t know what to do about it. But the only thing to do about it is [to] not stop telling the truth.”

How to Watch The Lowdown: Streaming & Cable Options

Episodes of The Lowdown will air on FX and will stream the following day on Hulu or Disney+ with Hulu. The show is set to premiere on Tuesday, September 23, 2025.

New Alan Partridge series ‘How Are You?’ launch date revealed with trailer and spoof crowdfunder plea

by jummy84
written by jummy84

The release date for the new Alan Partridge series, How Are You? It’s Alan (Partridge), has been confirmed.

The show will see Steve Coogan return as the iconic comedy character as he hosts six episodes that will explore the subject of mental health. After a year living in Saudi Arabia, Partridge has returned to Britain and the show will see him “ask some important questions”.

The series will premiere on BBC One and BBC iPlayer at 9:30pm on Friday 3 October, and all six episodes will be available to watch online from that day.

It was originally announced in 2024 under the title And Did Those Feet… With Alan Partridge, and a synopsis explains: “We follow the beloved and, to be fair, revered broadcaster Alan Partridge as he reintegrates into life in Britain after a year working in Saudi Arabia.”

“But what begins as a documentary about homecoming soon morphs into something more personal as Alan realises that the happiness he thought he’d feel at being back in Norwich just hasn’t materialised. Something’s missing.”

“It’s a journey through the mental health of himself and the country he loves (the UK including Northern Ireland) to ask: are we mentally unwell, mentally challenged, sad, cross, disturbed or just plain fed up?”

Partridge himself has given fans an insight into how the show came about: “The kingdom of Saudi Arabia enjoys extensive oil and natural gas reserves, but has also seen economic growth in other areas such as agricultural production, retail trade, construction, and transport,” he said. “It directs some $69 billion to military expenditure each year. And yet despite all that, I somehow felt incomplete.”

Ahead of the show’s launch, the BBC have also shared a spoof crowdfunder appeal from Partridge, in which he offers a range of services for fans, including a birthday voicemail for £50 and a dinner at a restaurant of your choosing for £400 (or at one of Alan’s choosing for £200). Watch above.

The inept, awkward broadcaster first appeared in 1991 on the radio show On The Hour, before transitioning to television when he hosted the fictional chat show Knowing Me, Knowing You from 1994-95, followed by the sitcom I’m Alan Partridge from 1997 to 2002. The character has been revived on various platforms including YouTube, podcasts, books, and the 2013 feature film Alpha Papa.

Last year, Coogan said he would like to do more live shows as the character, saying “I’d like to do some other stuff first and I’ll go back to him”. One of those other projects will be a film about footballer Roy Keane, titled Saipan.
