Missy’s return in Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage season 2 needs to bear massive differences from season 1 for the Young Sheldon spinoff to justify it. First Marriage season 1’s spotlight on Georgie and Mandy gave the Coopers few chances to appear in the sitcom, with Missy in particular only being in four episodes of First Marriage season 1. Georgie’s family will nevertheless be an important part of First Marriage season 2, just like it was in season 1. With several Young Sheldon stars confirmed to return for First Marriage season 2, Mary and Missy will inevitably have the biggest…

Of course there have been inevitable (and not entirely unfair) jokes about The Rock running for an Oscar since The Smashing Machine was announced, but Safdie and Johnson certainly make a compelling case for it. While even a wig and some prosthetics can’t hide his incredibly recognisable visage, there’s a delicateness and vulnerability Johnson brings to the role as well as obvious physical command that combine into a mesmerising and empathetic character study. He understands Kerr – undoubtedly because he was a part of the wrestling world long before he was an actor – and watching how deftly he delivers this performance, it’s a shame Johnson…

Before it was called Avengers: Doomsday, the next Avengers movie was going to be called Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. (Hopefully by now you don’t need us to explain the name change. If you do, we’re in trouble.)But changing The Kang Dynasty into Doomsday is not as simple as swapping one character for another and changing a couple of movie logos. Even if we never see Kang onscreen again, we suspect that Kang and Doctor Doom had some history together in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, stuff that may have already happened that we just never saw. In fact, some events we did see throughout the MCU might…

Starring Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen as the titular friends, Apple TV+’s Platonic explores a male-female friendship at the center of the series. The two protagonists have great chemistry, and the series expertly depicts the various challenges of a friendship like theirs that they face daily. Supported by the equally strong Luke Macfarlane as Sylvia’s (Byrne) husband, and Carla Gallo as her close friend, Platonic expertly balances comedy with emotional beats of what life looks like in your 40s and when you’re in entirely different spaces in your lives. We rarely see friendships like these on television, and Byrne and…

Tracker season 3 has lost two major characters, but it’s now been confirmed that others will step up to take their place. The changes will once again shake up the Justin Hartley-led show and reset the character dynamic of the group, which could prove frustrating for fans who have been patient with Tracker’s inconsistency over the first two seasons. However, everything suggests that this lineup will be the final, permanent main cast for the foreseeable future, meaning Tracker season 3 can finally reach its full potential. While still engaging, season 2 of Tracker felt entirely different from the first season,…

On this very special episode of Truth & Movies, the LWLies team head over to Amsterdam to experience the opening of a new exhibition at the Eye Filmmuseum. Tilda Swinton: Ongoing is a celebration of all things Tilda, from her memories, her collaborators and her distinctive vision of creativity.

Venus Grrrls are a five-piece rock band from Leeds and Newcastle, UK, made up of GK (vocals), Eliza Lee (lead guitar), Hannah Barraclough (bass), Grace Stubbings (synth), and Alannagh Doherty (drums). They’ve been making waves with their unique sound, which blends goth and grunge with a strong influence from the riot grrrl movement.Their song “Ivy Tree” perfectly showcases their style. Lead singer GK’s powerful vocals are a standout, commanding attention over a backdrop of “cascading riffs and synth motifs.” The track is an example of the band’s knack for storytelling and their ability to create a sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh. The band’s music…

Movies never change. (Unless they were directed George Lucas. Then they might change.) Once a director locks their movie and releases it into the theaters, it’s incredibly rare (again, unless the director is named George Walton Lucas Jr.) for the film to evolve with the times. Sometimes, as new generations of viewers discover a film, the consensus opinion might change. The movie itself does not.That’s also true of individual movie reviews. A website like Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic might add new takes on an old film, but the original ones from the initial release sit in their archive forever. So you can go look…

From an explosion of Marvel favorites in Avengers: Doomsday to the hotly anticipated The Mandalorian and Grogu, the 2026 box office lineup is already looking memorable. Among the highlights is perhaps the biggest animated event of the year, and a film that seems destined to threaten the billion-dollar boundary following its release on June 19, 2026. That movie is Toy Story 5, which joins Supergirl, Scary Movie 6, and Travis Knight’s big-screen adaptation of Masters of the Universe in a stacked June slate. Ahead of the return to the world’s favorite gang of toys, which was first announced back in…
