A live-action adaptation of the popular anime and manga series My Hero Academia is reportedly in the works.
Per Nerdist and The Hollywood Reporter, Legendary Entertainment made the announcement that this live-action feature film will adapt Kohei Horikoshi’s manga, with Toho distributing the movie in Japan. Legendary will be producing the film with Alex Garcia and Jay Ashenfelter, alongside Shonen Jump publisher Shueisha’s Ryosuke Yoritomi. No details concerning directors, casting or potential release dates have been announced.
I popped my head into my brother’s room. He was on his computer playing video games — likely Warcraft. He was one of those overachievers who could do eight things at once, so he also had his textbooks open on his desk and some anime on in the background.
“What’s this?”
“Oh — it’s awesome. Cowboy Bebop. You’ll love it.”
He didn’t even take his eyes off the computer screen to answer my question. I looked at the TV. And there he was, Spike Spiegel, in all his green-haired glory, those brown, bounty-hunting eyes staring back into mine. I knew it right then: I was in love.
My brother and I watched Dragon Ball Z and Sailor Moon on Toonami when we were young. We caught some episodes of Ronin Warriors, Inuyasha and Outlaw Star on Adult Swim. I owned one Sailor Moon VHS, and it was pretty pricey. Anime wasn’t easy to come by back then.
An alleged leak for the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster appeared online Wednesday, and Nintendo fans have been completing hours of research to uncover details behind the leak.
After being posted to Snapchat in a video by an unnamed French person at the time, it was quickly deleted and then appeared as pasted-together images on Discord, and later 4chan. The images have since been circulating the internet and can now be seen on Imgur.
If you’ve ever wondered why Darth Vader built a castle on Mustafar, Marvel has revealed the answer.
Warning: this article contains spoilers for Star Wars – Darth Vader #22!
2016’s Rogue One first introduced Vader’s sinister fortress into official Star Wars continuity, revealing that the Dark Lord of the Sith built a castle on the very world where Anakin Skywalker died. But as it turns out, there’s much more to the castle than just Vader’s need to get away from it all and have a spa day. It all ties into the return of Lord Momin, an ancient Sith Lord first introduced in the 2015 comic Star Wars: Lando.
This is a spoiler-free review for Netflix’s Bodyguard Season 1. All six episodes are currently available to stream on Netflix.
The UK’s most-watched drama in 2018 (so far), which premiered on BBC One back in August, has finally made its way to Netflix subscribers in the US. There’s been plenty of hype surrounding the series, not only as a popular hit with viewers across the pond, but also an exceptional thriller, helmed by showrunner Jed Mercurio (Line of Duty). Thankfully, we can confirm that all of the praise is well deserved, as Bodyguard, starring Game of Thrones alum Richard Madden, is a first-rate show brimming with terrifying, unpredictable twists and turns.

Just a few days before the Red Dead Redemption 2 launch, Walmart and Gamestop have come out with a couple of exceptionally priced bundles, featuring either the Xbox One S or the next generation Xbox One X. The PS4 Pro Red Dead Redemption 2 bundle had been announced earlier but that promotion is coming to an end soon.
No doubt some readers unfamiliar with the source material will dismiss Books of Magic as a blatant Harry Potter ripoff. That’s unfair, since the original comics predate Harry Potter by a number of years, but the simple fact is that the popularity of this franchise was long ago dwarfed by that of the Potterverse. Heck, spend much time on Twitter these days and it becomes painfully apparent that some people have never read a book not penned by J.K. Rowling. This new series needs to do all it can to distinguish itself and find a unique spin on the “magical boarding school” archetype. It doesn’t. The basic formula remains as appealing as ever, but this series seems content to retell a story we’ve read before.
Though no details were given on how this will make its way to PC, it’s a solid bet that Game Pass will be used in conjunction with the Microsoft Store. Game Pass currently has over 100 games to download for $10 a month, with Microsoft ensuring that all first-party titles launch on the service upon release. Microsoft exclusives released earlier this year, like Sea of Thieves and Forza Horizon 4, launched day-and-date on Xbox Game Pass.
