After a close encounter with a pursuing ship, The Mandalorian needs to put in repairs and so heads to Mos Eisley, the infamous space-port in the backwater (backsand?) world of Tatooine. But needing money to finance those repairs, he reluctantly agrees to help track a local would-be bounty-hunter for...

Following through on its promise to return ‘early in 2020’, we now know definitively that Doctor Who will be back on tv screens on New Year’s Day – kicking off with a slightly longer episode (entitled Spyfall) before settling back in for the rest of its run on consecutive...

While there’s been just as many DC movies out there as Marvel, it’s been a far less cohesive universe for the former. One of the biggest successes was 2017’s Wonder Woman, staring Gal Gadot as the warrior princess venturing out into the wider world during World War II. Though...

It’s been an interesting day or so for those previously connected to cult hit Game of Thrones and their future projects. We’ve already noted that David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, who ran the main show, will now be foregoing plans to do more story-building in a galaxy far,...

Never let it be said that the drama behind the scenes on Star Wars isn’t equal to what we see on screen. There may be no flashing of light-sabers or exploding TIE fighters, but the hiring, firing and almost obligatory shake-up in creative personnel has now become par for...
