Discovery, Amazon MGM Studios, Sony, Universal, and Netflix have all submitted bids to acquire the package. Christopher McQuarrie, known for his work on the Mission: Impossible series, is reportedly set to write and direct, with Oscar-winner Michael B. Jordan on board as a producer and possibly the star.The report did not include any further details on the bidding, including fees or other deal particulars that could be…
When IO Interactive and Sony announced a 007 First Light PS5 controller inspired by the game, people quickly pointed out that the controller’s design looked like it was meant to evoke James Bond’s trademark barrel logo. Except it didn’t really, and it turns out that was by design.Art director Rasmus Poulsen told Eurogamer that what IO was trying to achieve was to reference “more how the UI of the game feels.””So rather than simply making a franchise stamp, it relates to our product, in the sense that it has that UI sense–and then it has more of a, dare I…
The Beijing Auto Show is currently taking place in China, offering those of us behind the Trump tariff curtain a peek at what’s increasingly being dubbed the world’s most advanced car market. Chinese EVs leave everyone else in the dust, we’re told, with infotainment that makes your smartphone look like a StarTac, range numbers that would make a turbodiesel Audi weep, and charging that might be even faster than filling up with gas, depending on the size of your tank. As an American, I mostly have to take someone else’s word for that. If there’s one thing Democratic politicians can…
Star Wars is composed of dozens of different stories, many of which have been told outside of the mainline movies. One of the most prominent sources since the franchise’s creation has been video games, with studios reimagining Star Wars’ existing stories and characters or creating new ones across dozens of gaming genres, including racing games, shooters, flight simulators, and role-playing games. And the addition of new stories in the Star Wars universe hasn’t slowed down. In the next few years we’re expecting entries across a diverse range of genres, including the racing game Star Wars: Galactic Racer, the turn-based-tactics game…
Welcome to Edition 8.39 of the Rocket Report! There’s a lot of news to share in the universe of powerful rockets this week, and we’re delighted to sum it up in this week’s edition. The biggest rocket of them all, Starship, had a relatively quiet week as SpaceX aims to launch the vehicle’s next test flight, perhaps sometime in May. The results of that flight and the outcome of Blue Origin’s first attempt to land on the Moon with its Blue Moon cargo lander in the coming months should tell us a lot about NASA’s actual chances of putting astronauts…
The Lord of the Rings will always hold a place of honor in Magic: The Gathering. At a time when Universes Beyond crossover cards were confined to limited Secret Lair drops like The Walking Dead, or preconstructed Commander decks like Warhammer 40K, The Lord of the Rings introduced the first-ever tentpole Universed Beyond expansion with Tales of Middle-Earth in 2023.Now, Tolkien’s high fantasy world is returning to Wizards of The Coast’s tenured trading card game in August with The Hobbit, the prequel story to the LOTR trilogy. After seeing a handful of cards at a pre-MagicCon Las Vegas press preview…
As we wrote last month, the extent of the shipping delays can probably be blamed on multiple factors. AI-related demand for the desktops and chip shortages are probably factors, but Apple is also said to be planning replacements for both systems with Apple M5-series chips later this year, and it’s common for models to see their ship times slip when replacements are imminent. Cook’s “several months” estimate could easily include the introduction of new models, plus whatever time Apple needs to catch up to pent-up demand afterward. Cook also noted that “customer response to MacBook Neo has been off the…
Ask any Magic: The Gathering player what the most disappointing set of the past 12-18 months has been, and the Spider-Man set from September 2025 will often be the first or second choice. A mishmash of popular and obscure characters (Spider-UK? Huh?), inconsistent mechanics, and a subpar limited environment doomed Peter Parker’s first foray into the MTG world.The next set on the 2026 schedule, however, is Marvel Super Heroes, and Wizards of the Coast hopes to prove that Spider-Man was an exception, not the rule. After the set’s brief appearance during the Preview Panel at MagicCon: Las Vegas, the jury…
On Thursday, the publicly traded spaceflight company Virgin Galactic shared on social media a new photo of its next-generation spaceship being towed outside of its factory in Mesa, Arizona. You remember Virgin Galactic, right? The space tourism company was founded 22 years ago by Sir Richard Branson to bring spaceflight to the masses. Hundreds of people began buying tickets to space nearly two decades ago. And after a long, and at times deadly, development campaign, the company reached outer space (defined, somewhat controversially, as an altitude of 80 km and above) in December 2018. The company began flying passengers in…
May 4 is just around the corner, which is as good an excuse as any to celebrate being a Star Wars fan by buying all the new things (unless you’re saving your pennies for that Jedi Master badge for Celebration, that is). If fandom-themed bags are your jam, you might be interested in Loungefly’s newest additions to its Star Wars collection, which include five new backpacks, two new crossbody bags, and a cute new selection of charms to add to your daily carries. They’re all available now, and we’ve detailed them all below. If you’re quick, you can get them…
