What are you doing, Bucky? With a week to go before Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters, Sebastian Stan seems to be spilling Marvel Cinematic Universe secrets–so much for those fake scripts.

Based on every image, trailer, and poster, it’s very clear that this is the biggest MCU movie yet–bringing together a universe of superheroes that have been introduced in the decade since the first Iron Man movie premiered. However, it looks like there will be even more faces in it than fans realized. Appearing at the Ace Comic-Con (via The Independent), Stan spoke about a particularly massive scene in the film.

“There was one scene, I think, we had where everybody was there. I can’t really talk about that scene, but I knew it took them three months in planning this scene to have everyone there,” he teased. “You look around and you just saw everyone from Samuel L. Jackson to Michael Douglas to Michelle Pfeiffer. Everybody was there.”

Those three names alone say a lot about what will unfold in Infinity War. First of all, there’s been a large question mark hanging over Nick Fury’s (Jackson) head. While it’s known he’ll be returning for Captain Marvel, this is seemingly the first confirmation that the character will appear in the next Avengers movie.

However, Douglas and Pfeiffer are even more intriguing. Douglas, of course, plays Hank Pym–the original Ant-Man–in the MCU. Pfeiffer, on the other hand, was previously believed to be debuting as Janet Van Dyne–the original Wasp–in Ant-Man and the Wasp. It was revealed in the first Ant-Man film that Janet was lost in the Quantum Realm after shrinking too small.

However, it now seems she’ll be back in action for Avengers: Infinity War. Still, who knows if her return will be explained. After all, there’s already plenty to do in the film thanks to the arrival of Thanos (Josh Brolin).

At the very least, this sounds like good news for Ant-Man (Paul Rudd), who has been largely absent from the movie’s marketing. The same cannot be said for Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). Sorry, Hawkeye. Avengers: Infinity War is in theaters on April 27.

The rollout of last week’s 3.5 update for Fortnite wasn’t particularly smooth. Shortly after the patch was released, the game was rendered unplayable for many due to a variety of technical issues. Epic offered some free items to make up for the outage, and now the studio is giving away a second batch of freebies to all players.

As another gift to players for the technical issues that plagued Fortnite last week, Epic is offering another set of free items in both Battle Royale and Save the World modes. Battle Royale players can now claim a pack of 20 Battle Stars, which can be used to level up the Battle Pass and, in turn, earn rewards. Save the World players, meanwhile, will receive 1600 Seasonal Gold.

You’ll receive the freebies upon logging in, so you should snag them while you can. Last weekend, Epic offered Battle Royale players a free Back Bling item–a new type of customization slot introduced in Season 3. Save the World players also got a free item last week: a Troll Stash Llama.

The latest batch of freebies coincides with the release of Fortnite’s v3.5.2 update. That introduced a handful of new content to both Battle Royale and Save the World. On the Battle Royale side, Epic added a new weapon–the Light Machine Gun–and kicked off the “new and improved” 50v50 v2 mode, which will only be underway for a limited time. Save the World received an additional questline that unlocks four new Cyberpunk Heroes and the Mercury LMG weapon.

As another incentive to log into Fortnite this weekend, Epic is offering double XP in Battle Royale from now until April 22. Save the World players, on the other hand, will receive a free Into the Storm Llama each day they log in through Sunday.

Are The Walking Dead‘s glory days over? The ratings for the Season 8 finale are in and they’re not great–at least as far as The Walking Dead is concerned. Nearly 8 million viewers tuned in to see the end of Rick’s (Andrew Lincoln) war with Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), which made it the biggest show on cable that night.

However, the ratings paint a bleak picture. As reported by Variety, this was a 30 percent drop from the audience that tuned in to watch the Season 7 finale one year before. In fact, this was the lowest-rated finale since Season 1, which brought in 6 million viewers. According to Variety, the highest was Season 5, in which 15.8 million tuned in to see Morgan (Lennie James) finally reuniting with Rick.

While ratings for the AMC zombie series continue to be on a downward trend, it still has the type of viewership many other shows would kill for. That said, it’s only a matter of time before that’s no longer the case. If the zombie show keeps bleeding viewers like it has been, it’s going to become a walker itself.

As for Fear the Walking Dead, which saw Morgan join the cast of characters after jumping from the mothership, the Season 4 premiere saw just over 4 million viewers tune in. While that’s a loss of nearly half of the audience from its The Walking Dead lead-in, it’s also nearly double the Season 3 finale’s viewers.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has been a phenomenon this past year. Not only has it seen explosive growth, but it’s also helped inspire a wave of other battle royale games coming this year. If you have an Xbox One and haven’t hopped on the PUBG drop plane yet, now’s your chance. PUBG is currently free to play for Xbox One owners through Sunday, April 22. The only catch is that you have to be an Xbox Live Gold subscriber to take advantage of the free play weekend.

To download the full-game trial, simply head to the Xbox Store or click into the Gold section on the dashboard of your Xbox One. Any progress you make during the free play weekend will carry over into the full game, should you decide to buy it down the line.

Now is a good time to buy, too, because the Xbox One version of PUBG is getting the desert map Miramar next month. Seeing as Erangel is the only map available now for Xbox One players, that will effectively double the game’s playable real estate. Along with the new map will come three additional vehicles: a minibus, pickup truck, and jet ski.

In addition to the free play weekend, the Xbox One version of PUBG is getting a limited-time DLC pack that contains some new outfits (see below). The pack costs $7 and will be available from April 19 to May 19.

Meanwhile, the developers are currently working on a smaller map for PUBG on PC, dubbed Codename: Savage. If history is any indication, it should arrive on Xbox One a few months after it lands on PC.

Not everyone is a PUBG fan. If you’re firmly in the camp of the free-to-play competitor Fortnite, you’ll be pleased to hear that game just got an update and is offering players double XP this weekend. Let the battle of the battle royale games begin.

In Season 1, Legion borrowed the X-Men’s general backdrop–there are mutants, they have special abilities, and people generally don’t like ’em–to tell a very personal story about mental illness.

In Season 2, things are different. These days, Legion is going all in on its comic book heritage. By weaving together the themes, tropes, and some other, more direct connections to the comics, Legion is finally starting to feel like a real X-Men adventure. Here’s why.
