It’s shaping up to be quite the year for All Elite Wrestling as the landscape of the business continues to change. The company’s current broadcasting rights deal with Warner Bros. Discovery comes up by year’s end, leaving questions of whether Aew remains or lands elsewhere. There has also been an influx of big free-agent signings like Mercedes Moné and returns to TV including Mjf. Tony Khan remains enthusiastic about the company he founded five years ago alongside Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega, and The Young Bucks. During this time the upstart hasn’t been without growing pains with the brand looking to develop a unique identity compared to what was already in the marketplace. Summer is a pivotal time for Aew starting with Forbidden Door, a collaborative show featuring talent from New Japan Pro Wrestling, World Wonder Ring Stardom, and Mexico’s Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (Cmll) promotion.

Hideo Kojima is hailed as one of the most visionary minds in the gaming fraternity. The individual is responsible for Metal Gear Solid, made during the game director’s successful tenure at Konami. The title is a trailblazer in the action-adventure stealth genre, considered revolutionary.
Often listed among some of the most well-crafted video games ever to come out, surprisingly, Hideo Kojima has a regret about it. While it may appear minor, had the visionary been able to execute his initial thought, one of the title’s most distinguished moments would have been altered by quite some margin.

With a career that spans 38 years and counting, Hideo Kojima is indeed one of the most prominent names in the gaming world. Kojima-san gave the world one of the most popular stealth game franchises, Metal Gear Solid, which first came out all the way back in 1987. The games got contagiously popular as he redefined the stealth genre, over the guns-blazing approach like the other games of that period.

As the franchise continued to grow, the series only got better, leaving its players thoroughly entertained, as it featured exciting and unique gameplay features, leaving its users surprised. Despite being a game designer, the Death Stranding 2 designer has an immense love for movies and has some dreams of working behind the cameras. However, he doubts those dreams will ever become a reality because he has a compelling justification to not pursue his other dream.

Legendary singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen, who is known as The Boss, recently performed at the Chase Center as part of his world tour with his E Street Band in San Francisco.
When he saw a sign that read, “Skipping school, sign my note?”, the ‘Born to Run’ hitmaker signed a young fan’s note to say they were “skipping school”. He obliged so the youngster could miss school, reports ‘Female First UK’.
Meanwhile, the ‘Dancing in the Dark’ hitmaker was recently unveiled as the first international artiste set to be inducted as a fellow of Britain’s Ivors Academy.
Springsteen is set to make history by following Sir Paul McCartney, Kate Bush, Joan Armatrading and Sting by getting the honour.

Amid his rise to music stardom, Zach Bryan has frequently drawn comparisons to Bruce Springsteen for his earnest, vivid songwriting and energetic live shows. Even Springsteen has taken notice, as The Boss spent an off day on his own world tour to jet back to the east coast and join Bryan on stage in Brooklyn on Wednesday night.
Springsteen made a surprise appearance during the encore of Bryan’s show at Barclays Center as the two teamed up to sing the unreleased song “Sandpaper.” Springsteen then stuck for “Revival,” even playing a guitar solo during the rousing finale. Maggie Rogers, who appeared earlier in the evening for “Dawns,” also joined in on “Revival.”

Exclusive: In his first major film project since leaving as Netflix Film boss, Scott Stuber has teamed with Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein & Eric Robinson to make a film about The Boss. Scott Cooper is writing to direct Deliver Me from Nowhere, a narrative feature about Bruce Springsteen and the long effort to put together his seminal 1982 album Nebraska, which started to take shape as he and the E Street Band were laying down tracks for his massive hit album Born in the USA.

“The Boss,” Bruce Springsteen, is easily one of the most iconic living artists in music with hits like “Streets of Philadelphia,” “Dancing in the Dark” and “Born to Run,” among many others. Such a strong career has warranted a lot of awards attention, so it’s no wonder that the Boss has racked up an impressive 20 Grammys, the most for a rock soloist.

The anime fans were eagerly waiting for the 2024 Crunchyroll Anime Awards result. Anime like Jujutsju Kaisen, Attack on Titan, Oshi no Ko, etc., dominated the award ceremony with multiple award wins. Jujutsu Kaisen won the most, with eleven awards. Chainsaw Man season one had a few nominations, but it could not perform as the fans had hoped. Denji and Pochita’s friendship was not strong enough.
But there was a certain category that the fans had hoped for a different result. During the award ceremony, Jujutsu Kaisen won the Best Opening Sequence award. Even though fans voted it to be the best, many believe that it would have been given to Chainsaw Man. Chainsaw Man’s opening theme broke a record that even One Piece failed to achieve.
Chainsaw Man’s Opening Theme is Pure Gold Chainsaw Man
Chainsaw Man season one had mixed reviews, but the opening theme was liked by all.

Get ready to peek behind the curtains of British Aristocracy with the new character posters from the Netflix original series The Gentlemen. The new show is inspired by Guy Ritchie‘s film of the same name. Ritchie himself is wearing multiple hats behind the scenes as the creator, writer, and executive producer. He has also directed the first two episodes of the series. The show was also previously known to premiere sometime next month, but we now have a release date as Netflix announced the premiere will be on March 7.
The official logline from Netflix reads,
“The Gentlemen sees Eddie Horniman (Theo James) unexpectedly inherit his father’s sizable country estate – only to discover it’s part of a clandestine cannabis empire. Moreover, many unsavory characters from Britain’s criminal underworld want a piece of the operation. Determined to extricate his family from their clutches, Eddie tries to play the gangsters at their own game.

“Come with me if you want to live!” But don’t bother if you don’t care for James Cameron’s movies. Michael Biehn — who played Kyle Reese in 1984’s The Terminator — revealed that singer Sting turned down playing the character because he didn’t like the director’s previous work…Piranha II: The Spawning.
Biehn — who was also featured in deleted scenes in Terminator 2: Judgment Day — remembered Sting’s fateful words to Cameron during the casting process, telling Michael Rosenbaum on his podcast, “I think originally [James Cameron] wanted Sting because he thought Sting had this unearthly quality about him. And I think he met with Sting, and I think Sting basically said, ‘Yeah, I just saw Piranha 2. I think I’ll take a pass on this thing.’ Something along those lines. I’m not sure how serious Jim was about him. I’ve never heard any other name associated with Kyle Reese.

They blew up the Chicken Man in Philly last night but will they greenlight a movie in Hollywood? Rumors are swirling that a film may be in the works about Bruce Springsteen’s iconic album “Nebraska”, released in 1982. A Bruce biopic seems almost like a given at this point in his life and career; that this supposed project will focus on his most unique and thematically heavy album is all the more promising. Word right now is that Springsteen is in talks with director Scott Cooper, whose Crazy Heart, Out of the Furnace and Black Mass had some dark influences themselves.
“Nebraska” – released between double album “The River” and his reigning best-seller “Born in the USA” – captures some of Springsteen’s darkest lyrics, with songs about people who, as he put it, “just get shot off somewhere where nothing seems to matter.” To give a more direct example, the opening...

There’s a reason the word honors is in the title. To help celebrate the lifetime contributions of artists in music, dance, theater, opera, movies and TV, the Kennedy Center Honors routinely pay tribute to its recipients by rewarding them with memorable performances.
Scores of artists have been feted since the Honors got their start in 1978, but there are certain tributes that remain sketched in our hearts forever. In anticipation of the 46th annual event honoring Billy Crystal, Renée Fleming, Barry Gibb, Queen Latifah, and Dionne Warwick on Dec. 27, we look back at some of the show’s most unforgettable performances — starting with Lenny Bernstein’s opening speech from the very first Kennedy Center Honors, of course.

Bruce Springsteen Postponing All 2023 Concerts to Next Year as He Recovers From Peptic Ulcer Disease
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are postponing all of their 2023 tour dates to next year as The Boss recovers from peptic ulcer disease.
The icon made the announcement Wednesday on social media. “Thanks to all my friends and fans for your good wishes, encouragement and support. I’m on the mend and can’t wait to see you all next year,” he wrote.
Springsteen, 74, has spent the past few weeks recovering from peptic ulcer disease, and his doctor has advised him to continue treatment for the remainder of the year.
Rescheduled dates for each of the 2023 shows will be announced next week. All of the shows will take place at their originally scheduled venues. Fans who cannot attend the new dates will have 30 days to request a refund if purchased through official ticketing companies.

Elvis Presley had one of the biggest and best careers in the history of rock ‘n’ roll music. Despite this, he left numerous great songs behind, including the song Bruce Springsteen wrote for him. In his autobiography, Springsteen discussed the new kinds of music that enthralled audiences when he wrote a tune for the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. He also implied the “Hound Dog” singer had lost his way.
Bruce Springsteen’s ‘Fire’ was meant for Elvis Presley
In his 2016 autobiography Born to Run, Springsteen discussed the musical landscape in 1977, the year the “I Want You, I Need You, I Love You” singer died. “Out went anything that smacked of frivolity or nostalgia,” he remembered. “The punk revolution had hit and there was some hard music coming out of England. The Sex Pistols, The Clash, and Elvis Costello all were pushing the envelope on what pop could be in...

Trinity Fatu has found a new glow in the rings of Impact Wrestling. The former WWE superstar previously known as Naomi was in search of a new chapter after more than a decade. Herself and Sasha Banks (Mercedes Moné) stepped away from WWE in May 2022 while holding the women’s tag team championship amid creative differences and growing frustrations. They decided to bet on themselves with Fatu specifically taking some time to really contemplate her future. Almost a year later the dancer-turned pro wrestler revealed that next anticipated move by debuting for Impact Wrestling. Right from her electric neon-coated entrance, it was clear Fatu had made the right decision. The newest member of the Knockouts division entered the mix rather quickly with standout matches against the likes of Kilynn King, Gisele Shaw, Jody Threat, and Savannah Evans. However, her biggest rival out of the gate is another WWE alum Deonna Purrazzo.

In an interview we had with Dean Fujioka, producer and protagonist of “Pure Japanese” in 2022, he stated: “I started working in Japan about 10 years ago and as I spoke with the stunt crews on site, I learned that there are less opportunities for them to play an active part in recent years, which simply led me to think that we should make more action movies in Japan. Kind of like regeneration of old folk houses, I thought it would be great to see more opportunities for them to show the beauty of action stunts, Japanese legacy”. It seems his urging was heard, and in the last few years, we had a number of new action movies coming out of Japan, with “Baby Assassins” and “One Percenter” being two of the most renowned samples. Reiki Tsuno is another filmmaker dealing with the concept, presenting a movie that moves towards action comedy paths.

Hearing The Beatles was a revelation for Bruce Springsteen. The first time he heard the Fab Four, he rushed to a pay phone and frantically called his girlfriend and asked if she had heard them. They changed his life, but that didn’t stop Springsteen from complimenting and complaining about The Beatles at the same time.
Bruce Springsteen said The Beatles’ had ‘the worst and most glorious band name’
Racing out to call his girlfriend wasn’t the only impulsive decision Springsteen made when he heard “I Want to Hold Your Hand.”
The Boss also snatched up the first record he could find with the name Beatles on the cover. It turned out to be the Fab Four backing up Tony Sheridan on the song “My Bonnie.” A duped Springsteen called it a rip-off.
The Beatles impacted him enough that he set a course to make music his career. Still,...

The MacGyver reboot that starred Lucas Till came to an end in 2021 after a five season, 94 episode run – and now Till is moving on from his MacGyver with the action thriller The Collective, which will be receiving a theatrical, digital, and VOD release (courtesy of Quiver Distribution) on August 4th. With that release date just over a month away, a trailer for The Collective has arrived online and can be seen in the embed above.

At 81 years old, we’re just glad that Sir Paul McCartney is still performing in any capacity — much less his epic three-hour arena shows. But his lengthy stints on stage might be partially motivated by those of Bruce Springsteen, who the Beatle blames for setting a new standard in long marathon performances.
The Boss, even at 73, is known for playing shows that can last nearly four hours — a timeframe that would’ve been completely unimaginable in The Beatles’ heyday. Speaking on the Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend podcast, McCartney reminisced on how culture has changed in the ’60s, set times included.
“You were on package bills,” McCartney told O’Brien of his early touring days. “These days, pretty much there’s a main act and there might be a warm-up act. But then, it was a lot of people on the bill because nobody did long [sets]. Now people will do three,...

"Found 'em! I'll send some guys..." Quiver Distribution has unveiled an official trailer for The Collective, a new action thriller from filmmaker Tom DeNucci. This is yet another of these junk action films, with a similar plot to so many others - involving hitmen and traffickers and taking out the "bad guys". A young recruit to a mysterious agency finds himself going rogue on his first assignment, tracking down a dangerous group of "untouchable" human traffickers. The Collective charts the story of a group of righteous assassins who take aim at a human trafficking ring that's backed by a network of billionaires. Lucas Till stars as Sam Alexander, a "rookie assassin", joined by Ruby Rose, Mercedes Varnado, Paul Ben-Victor, Tyrese Gibson, John Fiore, Levon Panek, plus Don Johnson as their leader. This looks as uninteresting and derivative as anything can, even the action. Will anyone even watch? // Continue Reading ›...

The Beatles’ steady rise to the top in England stood in contrast to their explosion of popularity in the United States. They went from unknown to the country’s most popular band virtually overnight. Their records flew off shelves. Young fans like Bruce Springsteen bought whatever Fab Four merchandise they could get their hands on. That included one Beatles song that Springsteen said was a rip-off that he listened to constantly anyway.
Bruce Springsteen said ‘My Bonnie’ was a ‘rip-off’ and ‘not great,’ but he listened to it anyway
The Boss was one of the millions of young music fans bowled over by The Beatles when they arrived in the U.S. in 1964. Those scores of fans helped the band place 64 songs in the Billboard top 100 between 1964 and 1970. Even the Fab Four’s self-professed lousy songs performed well in the U.S.

We had learned back in April of last year that music superstar Bad Bunny would be starring as Marvel Comics character El Muerto in a solo movie for Sony, a role that was hand-picked by Bad Bunny himself. THR brings us an update on the project this afternoon, revealing that Sony has now removed the planned upcoming movie from its current release schedule.
THR reports, “The feature project, which had Jonás Cuarón, the son of filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón, in the director’s chair, was slated for a Jan. 12, 2024 release date but Sony announced Wednesday that it had taken the title off its release schedule.”
Cited in the report, Bad Bunny’s touring schedule and the ongoing WGA Strike are likely the main reasons why Sony has put a stop to El Muerto pre-production at this time.

El Muerto, the Spider-Man spinoff starring Bad Bunny, is well, muerto. At least for the time being.
The feature project, which had Jonás Cuarón, the son of filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón, in the director’s chair, was slated for a Jan. 12, 2024, release date, but Sony announced Wednesday that it had taken the title off its release schedule.
Muerto was to have been the first live-action Marvel project to star a Latino character. El Muerto is an antihero and the son of a luchador, or Mexican wrestler.
The project had not even started shooting, so making that date would have been either a race or a non-starter. Sources say the project fell victim to the ongoing writers strike; the script needed additional work as of mid-spring, but services could not be rendered in time.
The feature was also not yet cast but sources say that the studio was making choices and had...

This Star Wars: The Mandalorian article contains spoilers.
When we first meet Axe Woves (Simon Kassianides) in season 2 of The Mandalorian, he’s working with Bo-Katan Kryze to obtain the Darksaber and unite Mandalorians under her leadership. While we don’t learn much about Axe in his debut episode, it’s clear that he and Bo-Katan have a deep respect for each other. This makes the big season 3 premiere reveal even more devastating: Axe, Koska Reeves (Mercedes Varnado), and the other Nite Owls have left Bo-Katan to become mercenaries after she failed to obtain the Darksaber from Moff Gideon.
After everything the Mandalorians have gone through with the destruction of their homeworld and near genocide of their people, it makes sense that Axe and the others would see Bo-Katan’s failure as another sign that their people are doomed to remain scattered across the galaxy. Even Bo-Katan had essentially given...

This Star Wars article contains spoilers for The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett.
While Pedro Pascal’s Din Djarin and Katee Sackhoff’s Bo-Katan Kryze are at the heart of The Mandalorian, there are no shortage of great actors and new characters making their way to the Star Wars galaxy this year. We’ve already seen Mark Hamill return as Luke Skywalker as well as Rosario Dawson bringing fan-favorite Ahsoka Tano to live-action. And of course, the series is anchored by returning cast like Carl Weathers as Greef Karga, Emily Swallow as the Armorer, and Giancarlo Esposito as Moff Gideon.
Let’s take a look at all the characters, both new and returning, that have made their way to The Mandalorian season 3:
Pedro Pascal is The Mandalorian aka Mando aka Din Djarin
