The director’s latest film feels like the capstone to his career. PLUS: First trailers for ‘Whalefall’ and ‘The Social Reckoning,’ Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. are together again, and we’re going back to ‘Jump Street’ ... ‘24 Jump Street.’
The pop star is halfway to an EGOT. PLUS: ‘Supergirl’ tickets take flight, new trailers for ‘The End of Oak Street,’ ‘Onslaught’ and ‘How to Rob a Bank,’ and Olivia Munn says farewell to ... Jon Stewart.
The film’s final trailer pulls back the curtain on the alien mystery. PLUS: ‘Toy Story 5’ trailer takes on tech, the pope quotes Gandalf, and the new ‘X-Men ’97’ trailer has to ‘get the X-Men back ... to the nineties.’
There’s no reason for this movie to exist. PLUS: Colbert and ’The Late Show’ sign off, The Daniels replace Gosling with Damon, and a new trailer for ‘Lanterns.’
