Episode 3 of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will see Sam and Bucky meet Helmut Zemo for his first MCU appearance since Captain America: Civil War in 2016. There's also the fact that Sam will be without his drone Redwing for at least the next fight sequence. 


The Jujutsu Kaisen movie will officially be adapting the prequel series before the main manga. 


The worlds of Vikings and The Witcher are getting expansions. The Witcher, which is currently in the process of filming the second season for Netflix, is in the casting process for a prequel unofficially titled Blood Origin but officially titled The Witcher: Blood Origin set about twelve centuries before the main show. Meanwhile, Vikings will be getting a spinoff series titled Valhalla. 


New details have been announced as far as casting goes for the Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series for the Star Wars universe. In addition to Kenobi and Darth Vader returning for a limited series set a decade after Revenge of the Sith, we will also see Owen and Beru Lars as we will see what they've been up to between Revenge of the Sith and New Hope.

Thoughts on the Mysterious Benedict Society- Episodes 1 and 2

Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi deserve a ton of credit for writing Sticky's first scene in the pilot episode. In this brief clip, he gets a prize-money check but his parents take it away immediately. This, of course, is a reference to his backstory from the first book where his parents- after his increasing quiz show success- become more focused on the prizes he brings home than on his well-being. Episode 2 features a brief but very well-written moment courtesy of the same duo that beautifully captures Martina Crowe's personality, where she glares around the classroom and causes her fellow students to lower their raised hands. This is very much in keeping with Martina's "don't cross me" book personality.

Why the MCU shouldn't recast T'Challa

T'Challa should remain Chadwick Boseman's role, and- at least in my opinion- casting another actor sort of dampens his legacy in that regard. I don't want this to be the same thing as Bruce Banner (remember Edward Norton in Incredible Hulk ?) or James Rhodes (remember Terrence Howard in Iron Man ?). One, and only one, person should portray T'Challa- the late Chadwick Boseman. Not having a T'Challa in the Black Panther sequel will allow the cast to grieve and mourn and honor- whichever they feel is appropriate- the life and legacy of both T'Challa (when cameras are rolling) and Chadwick (when cameras aren't rolling). Adding another actor as T'Challa- I think- would provide a "back to business as usual" vibe whereas keeping T'Challa's spot in Wakanda empty would allow the grieving process to continue on the actors' terms before, during and after filming, which in this regard I think is important.
