Thomas B. Crown.

The trailer for Michael B. Jordan’s The Thomas Crown Affair remake remake is out, and it looks to be as sexy, heisty, and suave as the 1999 Brosnan/Russo version. The Oscar winning actor directs as well as stars, with Adria Arjona and Kenneth Branagh along for the ride.

Merriam-Webster tags in.

The internet’s favorite dictionary just dropped a new word game, Tagline — and, surprisingly, there’s not a definition in sight. The game consists of three increasingly difficult clues with hangman-style answers to guess. The twist is that all the solutions are made up entirely from the same seven letters.

We’re doing Pride and Prejudice again.

Jane Austen’s signature work is being adapted for Netflix. Think Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (2016), but no zombies, so think the 2005 film starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen, but a series, so think the 1995 miniseries starring Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth.

It’s scheduled for release sometime later this year; Emma Corrin and Jack Lowden star.

Your Friends and Neighbors is coming back for season 2.

Jon Hamm will once again rob his wealthy Westchester ’hood, presumably while doing a sly voiceover. The Apple TV show, returning April 3rd and already renewed for season 3, also welcomes Dead to Me and scandalous suburb alum James Marsden as a new neighbor.

The Avengers: Doomsday teaser trailer is online.

The short MCU clip that premiered exclusively before Avatar: Fire and Ash is finally accessible. See Chris Evans’ former Captain America drive a motorcycle, wear a jacket, and hold a baby. Didn’t Steve Rogers retire?

The film will be out on December 18th, 2026, so we have a year to wonder.

AI advocates worry David Sacks’ aggression undermines the industry’s hopes.

The administration’s top AI adviser championed Trump’s executive order preempting states from regulating the industry, but alienated everyone from kids’ safety groups to Marjorie Taylor Greene. Insiders worry that the Musk-aligned investor doesn’t understand how Washington works.

“Alright coach, you just got handed the trophy of the inaugural Xbox bowl by Master Chief, how does it feel?”

Last night was the first Xbox Bowl, with Arkansas State taking the trophy, presented by Halo’s Master Chief, over Missouri State. Every player received a free ROG Xbox Ally handheld ahead of the game, but the winning team also received a playable trophy to, presumably, lock away in their case.
