Walking Dead
Scott Gimple says that the Rick Grimes trilogy will be able to stand alone. So anticipate many plotholes!

Training Day
WB is looking to make a prequel to the movie that earned Denzel Washington an oscar. No word on who will be in the movie yet, but the script is being written by Nick Yarborough and it is reportedly going to be set about a decade before the first movie right around the time of the Rodney King riots.

Gaming
Fortnite
Entering the Konami code in the blackhole screen will unlock a mini game.
Also, “The End” will likely only last until Tuesday, after that word is that the map of 100 man island will be made anew.
Apex Legends
Looting update coming.
For those who want to change the issue it will soon be toggleable.
RE:7
Capcom is releasing a prequel game. But it is only VR and only in Japan (for now at least.)

Comic Books
X-Men
Who is gunna be around in the new book?
Cyclops, Corsair, his brothers Havok and Vulcan, his children Cable and Prestige, his (ex?) wife Jean Grey, and Wolverine, Magneto, Polaris, and Dr. Cecilia Reyes, White Queen, Storm, Armor, Apocalypse, Magneto, Xavier, Mystique, Psylocke, and X-23,
Powers of X #6
Wait wait wait… so once humans begin to rely on technology they stop evolving?
I like Hickman and all, but this might just be a bridge too far.
Rob Liefeld
Suing (or taking some sort of legal action against) Disney? Seems something has gone down, and Liefeld isn’t happy about it.
Rumor Mill
Crisis
Michael Keaton making a “cameo”, along with Robert Wuhl returning as Alexander Knox.
Christopher Reeves too? With Brandon Routh playing a different version of Superman, this might have some legs.
Plus, 2 characters from Titans.

Captain Britain
Marvel is looking at Henry Cavill for the role
