Music
Rammstein
New Music? Christoph Schneider told Rodeo Radio podcast on the 13th.
TV/Streaming
HBO Max
HBO and their 3 streaming services are cleaning up the name game.
HBO Go is being phased out entirely, HBO Now is changing to just “HBO”, so HBO Max is the only deviation on the name.

Movies
Bride of Frankenstein
The Dark Universe isn’t dead! Director David Koepp told Collider that his time in quarantine was spent adapting his idea from the shared universe into something “we all really like.”

Tony Hawk’s Pro-Skater
The remaster is coming out Sept 3 on current gen, for $40.
Comic Books/Books
Iron Man
Marvel has redesigned the character, a bit of a soft reboot. Writer Christopher Cantwell and artist CAFU look like they are grounding the character back to his roots with less focus on the international celebrity aspect from recent arcs. Is this Feige road testing the “recasting” angle?
Rumor Mill
WB Gaming
WB is now being rumored to be selling off their gaming division. Rumored to be interested in the purchase are Take Two Interactive, EA, and Activision Blizzard.
Starfox
Not the Nintendo game, the brother of Thanos. Rumored to still be on the table for the MCU going forward. Cut from the Eternals movie script, but that is to make a bigger spot for him in the future according to the rumor.
Thanos
Speaking of… New rumor says that Thane, will not only be in the MCU soon, but his purpose will be to resurrect his father.
Batman
The rumored WB Montreal project now is being reported to star a Damien Wayne Batman, and not Bruce.
Superman
More rumors about MoS2… Rumored to be looking at John Boyega if JJ gets the movie, Michael B Jordan if WB gets their way, and Cavill if AT&T gets their way.
