The Witcher Season 2: Mark Hamill Is Game to Play Vesemir
With the first season of Netflix's The Witcher now available to stream, it's time to start looking forward to Season 2. There are tons of different characters in the series that Netflix can pull from — and it looks like Mark Hamill might interested in playing Vesemir, an old, wise man.
As pointed out by Redditor Grayjaw on r/TheWitcher, Hamill responded to a Twitter thread in 2018 where someone suggested that he'd be the perfect fit to play Vesemir. While Hamill's comments are over a year old, the Tweet has recently resurfaced among fans after Season 1 received fairly positive reviews.

The New Mutants Trailer Coming in January, Says Director
The X-Men spinoff film, The New Mutants has been stuck in a purgatory of sorts after the big Fox-Disney merger earlier this year. However, with an April 3, 2020 release date set, director Josh Boone says that fans will get a new trailer in January.
Fox released the first official trailer in October 2017, and since then things have been pretty quiet — with some wondering if the film will ever actually be released. However, on Instagram Boone replied to a New Mutants fan account revealing that a new trailer will be coming soon in 2020.

Star Wars Honors Hero Who Tackled UNC Gunman By Making Him a Jedi Master
Riley Howell, the heroic 21 year-old student who lost his life protecting his classmates by tackling the gunman who opened fire at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte on April 30, 2019, has been immortalized in Star Wars canon by Lucasfilm.
In the newly published book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - The Visual Dictionary, a character inspired by Riley Howell is cited as the Jedi Master who assembled the sacred texts featured in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
In the description of the texts known as the Aionomica, it reads, “Jedi Master and historian Ri-Lee Howell collected many of the earliest accounts of explorations and codifications of the Force in the Aionomica: a two-volume combination of codex, correspondence, and scrapbook. Though much of its contents would later be stored in holocrons (which have since been lost), the physical books have passages written in the hands of the original sages, carefully preserved by Howell.”

How The Rise of Skywalker Mirrors The Phantom Menace
Warning: Spoilers follow for The Rise of Skywalker.
While watching Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, I had a flashback to just four years ago, watching The Force Awakens for the first time and realizing it was largely a spirited remix of A New Hope. The Rise of Skywalker, too, feels like watching another previous entry in the saga. Many have already noted the parallels to Return of the Jedi, and that comparison is justified when it comes to Rey and Ben’s final confrontation with Emperor Palpatine. But beyond that climactic sequence, this last chapter actually bears a stronger resemblance to the first Prequel, The Phantom Menace.
