We didn’t have a chance to cover all the exciting news from the weekend, so here’s a quick summary of the highlights:

Masters of the Universe: Amazon’s adaptation is moving forward with Jared Leto cast as the iconic villain, Skeletor. The film is slated for a 2026 theatrical release.

"Anaconda" Reboot: Paul Rudd and Jack Black team up to revive the '90s hit. It’s unclear whether the film will stick to the horror genre or lean towards comedy, but with these two, it’s bound to be an interesting mix. The movie is set to release in December 2025.

Drama Surrounding "Superman" and the Directors: David Ayer, director of Suicide Squad (2016), praised James Gunn for the new "Superman" trailer. Hardcore Snyder fans didn’t take it well, responding with threats and hateful comments. Ayer fired back before deciding to stop tweeting altogether.
