Last week CinemaCon told us what Hollywood is planning. This week, Hollywood shows what actually works — and what doesn't. Michael drops Friday, Boys S5 gets its midpoint shake-up Wednesday, and The Mummy's $13.5M debut is exactly the crash-landing skeptics predicted.

Despite years of false starts, Paramount has once again confirmed a new Star Trek feature film is actively in development. As a fan, it's hard to know whether to raise shields or lock phasers on hope.

Sony and Warner Bros. showed their hands Monday and Tuesday. Then Universal brought Nolan and Spielberg. Amazon brought Rick Moranis back as Dark Helmet. Paramount dropped a Street Fighter trailer.

Lee Cronin's The Mummy is sitting at 58% on Rotten Tomatoes — miles ahead of the 2017 Dark Universe disaster but nowhere near his own Evil Dead Rise. It's bloody, it's loud, and it can't decide what kind of movie it wants to be.

The Boys Season 5 is three episodes deep, sitting at 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, and it already feels like the show is done playing nice. After Season 4's divisive run, this final season is swinging for the fences — and connecting.

This week, crew members shared photos of the USS Enterprise bridge being dismantled piece by piece at the Toronto studio where Strange New Worlds was born. The Starfleet Academy sets are going to auction. Star Trek: Year One — the proposed Kirk-era spin-off — now has no ship to fly. For the first time in nearly a decade, there is no Star Trek in production. The chair is empty.

At MegaCon 2026, Claudia Gray and Timothy Zahn — two of the most respected Star Wars authors alive — confirmed what fans have feared for years: Lucasfilm has no intention of bringing Mara Jade into canon. Her own creator can't even get a 'maybe.'

The Stargate fandom just activated a gate nobody saw coming — and the destination is the Caribbean. The first-ever official Stargate cruise sets sail in January 2027 with Richard Dean Anderson, Amanda Tapping, Michael Shanks, Joe Flanigan, and more. This is not a drill.

The Boys just premiered its final season to 98% on Rotten Tomatoes and the #1 streaming spot worldwide. Casey Throwback Mills looks back at how a blood-soaked Amazon show became the most important superhero series ever made.
