The Runaways
An exciting new trailer for Marvel’s The Runaways dropped this week, and it’s kids vs. parents! The trailer gives glimpses of the budding superpowers the characters will develop, as well has the evil plot their parents are involved in. For either those who are familiar with The Runaways comics, or those new to the story, this trailer sets viewers up for an entertaining ride! The Runaways debuts only on Hulu, November 21.
Daredevil Season 3
Wilson Fisk returns! Vincent D’Onofrio is officially returning as the vile gangster in season three of Daredevil. The reveal is not all that surprising, Fisk was only incarcerated at the end of season one. There will be a new showrunner however. Erik Oleson (executive producer on Arrow) will be replacing Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez for season three. The Devil of Hell’s Kitchen is set to return to Netflix sometime in 2018.
Bright
The Netflix buddy cop movie, featuring fantasy characters, has a new trailer. Yep, you read that right. The new trailer gives more information about the plot–a magic wand with near nuclear capabilities is in danger of falling into the wrong hands. There will be cops, magic, and allegories for racism. The film seems interesting for sure. Bright, starring Will Smith and Joel Edgerton, hits Netflix on December 22.
Star Trek: Discovery
While it’s still in season one, CBS has announced that Star Trek: Discovery will get a second season! The show has been a big hit thus far, and CBS has seen a big jump in subscribers to CBS All Access. Nothing else has been announced yet, such has number of episodes. For now season one is still going only on CBS All Access.
