Three things to know. Two trailers to watch. One article to read. Here’s what you need to know for this month.
How did a studio let ‘Friendship’ become a reality? PLUS: Netflix saves ‘Sesame Street,’ new trailers for ‘Jurassic World’ and ‘Zootopia 2,’ and the ‘Avengers’ sequels shift to Christmastime.
After a 14-year break, the series slayed its previous box office records.
Colin Jost and Michael Che once again swapped offensive jokes — but didn’t give any hints about whether they’d be back next season.
DC Studios needs a home run with this one. And I think they have it. PLUS: ‘Andor’ comes to an end, trailers for ‘Ironheart’ and ‘Peacemaker,’ and ‘The Paper’ heads to the office.
The latest MCU movie dropped a respectable 55 percent from last weekend — much better than ‘Quantumania,’ ‘The Marvels’ and ‘Brave New World.’
The ‘White Lotus’ star gave it his all, but the future of cast members like Colin Jost and Michael Che loomed large.
Is a movie’s title even a spoiler? PLUS: ‘Andor’ reaches new heights with Mon Mothma speech, trailers for ‘Dragon,’ ‘Big Mouth’ and ‘Stick,’ and ‘Gollum’ goes holiday hunting.
Yes, the latest MCU movie opened atop the box office — but it was the lowest early May debut for the cinematic universe since 2010’s ‘Thor.’
If we’re nearing the end of the Colin Jost/Michael Che ‘Weekend Update’ era, I want Michael Longfellow behind the desk next season.
This one is a huge bounce back from ‘Brave New World.’ PLUS: The Rock transforms into ‘The Smashing Machine,’ Ben Affleck visits the Criterion Closet, and Forest Whitaker steals the show on ‘Andor.’
Ryan Coogler’s masterpiece almost matched its debut gross, while ‘Revenge of the Sith’ re-release topped ‘The Accountant 2’
