“New Godzilla just announced. It’s going to be called Godzilla -0.”
“Takashi is coming back to write, direct. He’s going to lead the VFX team.”

In this Geek Freaks Headlines episode, we break down everything confirmed so far about the upcoming Clayface movie. Filming has wrapped, a September 11, 2026 release date is set, and the team is going heavy on practical effects with a body horror tone inspired by The Fly.

Clayface is targeting a September 11, 2026 theatrical release with filming now complete.
James Watkins directs; Mike Flanagan delivered the original draft, with current rewrites by Hussain Nomani. Matt Reeves is on board as a producer.
Tom Reese Harry is Clayface, positioned as a fallen actor whose transformation drives a pure horror story.
The tone leans into practical body horror in the spirit of The Fly, with minimal CG where possible.
Liverpool stands in for Gotham, with hospital, courthouse, and GCPD elements building a city you can revisit in future stories.
Next phase is editing and VFX polish, with an emphasis on maintaining the tactile, gruesome feel.
“They keep referencing The Fly... this is a real body horror film.”
“A B-movie actor turns to a substance that triggers his clay transformation.”

On this Geek Freaks Headlines episode, we break down fresh Supergirl movie details shared by David Krumholtz, who is playing Zor-El. The update points to a faithful take on Tom King’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, with Lobo in the mix and a promise to clarify the House of El twist established in the recent Superman film. We talk through why that context matters, how Kara’s tragic survival story sets her apart from Clark, and why Woman of Tomorrow is the book to read before the movie drops.
00:00 Supergirl update and David Krumholtz as Zor-El
00:16 Sticking close to Tom King’s Woman of Tomorrow and the addition of Lobo
00:33 Clarifying the House of El twist from Superman

01:11 Reading recommendation and Guardians-style space adventure vibes
01:20 Tease for continued discussion on the main Geek Freaks show
The Supergirl movie aims to closely follow Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, signaling a character-driven, cosmic road-adventure tone.
Lobo is involved, which hints at colorful worlds and big action while keeping the core story centered on Kara.
The film is expected to clarify the House of El twist introduced in the new Superman movie, addressing a major lore question for fans.
Kara’s survivor’s burden and isolation set her apart from Clark and could drive a more poignant emotional arc.
Now is a great time to read Woman of Tomorrow to catch the themes, tone, and stakes the movie appears to embrace.
“We got some new details about the upcoming Supergirl movie.”
“They said the movie will be sticking as close as possible to Woman of Tomorrow.”
“They’re going to be clarifying the House of El situation that we saw in Superman.”
“Please check out that book, A Woman of Tomorrow. It’s not a very long read.”

Crash Bandicoot is getting an animated series at Netflix with WildBrain partnering on production. Expect a bright, slapstick tone that leans into classic Crash chaos, with Cortex likely in the villain seat and a deep bench of side characters. We talk why Netflix is a strong home for game adaptations, how this compares to earlier attempts, and what details still need to be announced like casting and a showrunner. This is a nostalgia win for longtime players and an easy on-ramp for kids who are meeting Crash for the first time.
00:00 Crash Bandicoot series announced for Netflix, WildBrain on board
00:12 Tone expectations: silly, slapstick, colorful, classic Crash energy
00:17 Appeal for families and longtime players
00:29 Earlier TV attempt that stalled and why Netflix is a better fit
00:34 Track record of game adaptations on Netflix
00:45 What we are watching next: casting and showrunner news
Netflix is developing a Crash Bandicoot animated series with WildBrain, aiming for high-energy slapstick and bold visuals.
The show targets a wide audience, pairing kid-friendly fun with nostalgia for fans who grew up with the games.
A prior version was explored elsewhere but did not move forward, which makes Netflix’s infrastructure and history with game adaptations a promising sign.
Big open questions remain, including voice cast, showrunner, and release timing.
If Netflix taps into Cortex, Crash, and the extended roster of allies and foes, the series has room for episodic humor and fan-service deep cuts.
“Crash Bandicoot is coming to Netflix… it should be silly slapstick, very colorful.”
“Kids are going to dig it and the parents are going to be like, oh yeah, I played that game.”
“We’ve seen Netflix take video game properties and turn them into really successful animations.”
“The next thing we’re looking for is casting and who’s going to be the showrunner.”
“I’m always down for nostalgia.”

On this Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down today’s Halo news: a full remake of the original Halo campaign called Halo: Campaign Evolved built in Unreal Engine 5 with 4K visuals, refreshed audio, and returning cast re-recording lines. For the first time, Halo is coming to PlayStation alongside Xbox and PC. The remake adds three new prequel missions, nine series weapons like the Energy Sword and Battle Rifle, modern mechanics such as vehicle hijacking and Skulls, and a big emphasis on four-player co-op with split-screen and cross-play. There’s no competitive multiplayer here, and we talk through why that choice probably makes sense for a UE5 transition and a multi-platform launch.
00:00 The announcement and what “Campaign Evolved” actually is
00:18 Platforms and engine shift to UE5
00:33 Visual and audio overhaul with returning cast
00:58 New prequel missions and added weapons
01:15 Modern mechanics in a classic campaign
01:29 Co-op focus, split-screen, cross-play, and the “golf cart” Warthog seat
01:45 No competitive multiplayer and why that might be
02:00 Read on the strategy: learning UE5 and shipping on PS5
02:16 Nostalgia hit and why this remake still lands for longtime fans
This is a ground-up remake of the 2001 campaign, not a visual toggle remaster.
Launching on Xbox, PC, and PlayStation marks a major shift for Halo’s future.
Three new prequel missions connect Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson.
Nine series weapons and vehicle hijacking bring later-game features into CE.
Four-player online co-op, two-player split-screen on console, and cross-play are in.
No competitive multiplayer keeps the focus on story and co-op.
Likely a stepping stone to UE5 across Halo, with lessons for a future mainline entry.
“It’s not the Anniversary toggle. This one is built in Unreal Engine 5 and will feel very different.”
“For the very first time Halo will be on PlayStation. It’s the end of an era.”
“There is no competitive multiplayer. Co-op is where it’s going to be.”

Emiru says she was assaulted during a meet and greet at TwitchCon San Diego and is now pressing charges. In this episode, we break down what happened on site, why parasocial dynamics make creator appearances uniquely risky, and how events can raise the safety bar beyond standard crowd control. We also look at Twitch’s public response, what creators say they need at future conventions, and why trust in venue protocols is the real product for meet and greets.
00:00 News brief and why this story matters for all creator events
00:21 What happened at the meet and greet in San Diego and the immediate aftermath
00:41 Parasocial behavior and why rope lines are not enough
01:02 Security gaps and relying on personal bodyguards at public appearances
01:19 “Go get him” frustration as the assailant walks away in the clip
01:35 Twitch’s statement about bans and increased security and why creators are disputing on site actions
01:49 The ongoing fear for creators and the promise venues make when hosting them
02:00 What we will watch for next and listener voices we want to hear
Creator meet and greets face risks that standard event security does not always anticipate.
Clear perimeters, trained rovers, and immediate detainment protocols are table stakes, not extras.
Post-incident outreach must center the affected creator and be proactive and timely.
Trust will depend on visible layout changes and documented procedures at future shows.
The story is bigger than one incident. It speaks to how the industry protects people in the spotlight.
“It needs to be a wake up call to everybody that does conventions across the board.”
“What is going to stop them. A rope. That is not going to stop anyone.”
“No security followed that guy.”

Paul Bettany’s White Vision is positioned as the capstone to the WandaVision trilogy, with the series exploring memory versus emotion, a confirmed return for Ultron, and the reveal of Tommy Shepherd now aged up. We also talk through likely tie-ins with Agatha and Wiccan, and why this chapter matters for where the MCU is heading.

00:00 Vision takes the stage at NYCC and VisionQuest is framed as the capstone to WandaVision

00:33 Tommy Shepherd confirmed; Ruaridh Mollica steps in as the older Tommy
00:50 Legacy AIs return: J.A.R.V.I.S. and F.R.I.D.A.Y.; James Spader back as Ultron in CG and human form

VisionQuest is presented as the concluding chapter of the WandaVision storyline, following Agatha All Along.
White Vision holds Vision’s memories but can’t connect them to the emotions behind them, setting up a character-driven arc.
Tommy Shepherd is officially in play, with Ruaridh Mollica confirmed in the role.
Expect MCU legacy tech voices: J.A.R.V.I.S. and F.R.I.D.A.Y. are name-checked.
James Spader returns as Ultron, including a human guise, hinting at mindscape and identity themes.
Strong odds we see connective tissue to Agatha, Wiccan, and possibly Scarlet Witch.
Memorable Quotes

Sony’s next Jumanji movie is officially on the runway. Filming begins in November in Los Angeles, with Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan back under director Jake Kasdan. New additions include Brittany O’Grady and Burn Gorman. The release date is set for December 11, 2026.
If you’re new to the modern run, Jumanji reimagines the enchanted board game as a video game that pulls teens into avatar bodies played by the stars. The last two films were big holiday performers, so a mid December slot makes sense. I’ll cover casting confirmations, production updates, and any story clues as they land.

We unpack the debut trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and set the table for new and returning fans. You’ll hear what the show adapts from George R. R. Martin’s Dunk and Egg stories, why the tone feels lighter than Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, what to expect from the Ashford tournament, and how the smaller scale changes the feel of Westeros. We also flag key details to watch for without spoilers and share simple ways to get caught up before the premiere.
00:00 Introduction and quick context for the trailer
00:14 Premiere date and season size
00:28 Who are Ser Duncan the Tall and Egg
00:41 A lighter tone and road story vibe
00:56 Why the stakes are smaller and more personal
01:09 What to expect at Ashford without spoilers
01:28 The history backdrop and the Targaryen heir problem
01:41 No big opening sequence and why that matters
01:53 Where to start if you want to read the story first
01:59 Closing thoughts
The show premieres January 18, 2026 with a six episode first season.
This is a character driven road story that follows Ser Duncan the Tall and his squire Egg.
Expect a lighter tone with humor and smaller scale conflicts that still ripple across Westeros later.
Do not expect dragon spectacles or sprawling palace intrigue. The focus is on people and choices.
The Ashford tournament is the centerpiece of season one and sets many threads in motion.
Newcomers can jump in without prior lore. Readers can enjoy extra context from the novellas or the comic adaptation.
“This is going to be a lot lighter than I expected, with jokes and quips, and it’s going to be kind of a fun story.”
“It’s about these guys on the road and some of the small choices they make that have big impacts later on.”
“You won’t see big dragons. Dragons are gone at this point.”

In this quick update, we break down the latest Resident Evil film casting news and why it matters for the franchise. We cover Zach Cherry (Severance) and Kali Reis (True Detective: Night Country) joining the lineup alongside Austin Abrams, Paul Walter Hauser, and Johnno Wilson. We dig into why Reis feels built for this world, what Zach Cregger brings as a horror director, and why a brand-new story set in the game universe might be the right move for the big screen.
00:00 Casting update and who’s joined the film
00:08 Why Kali Reis is the standout choice for this universe
00:18 Director spotlight on Zach Cregger and his horror chops
00:24 New story in the Resident Evil world vs retelling the games
00:30 Hopes for set photos and early on-set vibes
00:34 Final thoughts and what we’ll watch for next
Kali Reis brings a physical, grounded presence that fits the survival horror tone.
Zach Cregger’s track record in horror points to a sharper, more atmospheric Resident Evil.
The film won’t retell a specific game plot. A new story in the same universe gives the creative team room to surprise fans.
Early production updates and set photos will be key to understanding the tone and visual style.
“She feels like a video game character. I think she’s going to destroy any zombie that gets in her way.”
“It’s not retelling any of the games. It’s a new story set in the world of the games.”
“I’m so desperate for a good Resident Evil movie. It’s a hell of an IP.”
