Murder Mystery 2 is a Go at Netflix
Given that (according to Netflix) 31 million people watched Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston in Murder Mystery during the first 72 hours of its release, making it one of the streaming site's biggest weekend debuts ever, it's not surprising that a sequel is currently in development.
To compare, the Sandra Bullock-led Bird Box had over (according to Netflix) 45 million accounts watch it in seven days globally.
So yes, as THR reports, Murder Mystery 2 is in the works and that James Vanderbilt (Zodiac, White House Down) is in negotiations to return as well.
WWE: Becky Lynch Celebrates Her “Manniversary,” Looking Back at the Biggest Year of Her Career
While promoting WWE 2K20, as the game's (first female) cover star, WWE RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch took some time to reflect on the past year, which has been the biggest of her career. After all, this week did mark her "Manniversary."
That's right, it was this time last year when Lynch started referring to herself as "The Man." Since then, she's flown off on a meteoric rise that saw her capture both the RAW and SmackDown Women's Championships as part of the first-ever female main event of WrestleMania.
Speaking to me, Lynch said "Wow, yes, it would have been around this time that I started it. Whoa. Either time is flying or, I don't know, maybe it even feels shorter than a year. It's been crazy. It's been go go go go. So many things have happened that it's sometimes hard to sit back and realize 'Well, this has gone alright for itself.'"
Is Bill Murray in Zombieland: Double Tap? Red Band Trailer Reveals the Answer
Premiering 10 years after the original, and also set 10 years later, Zombieland: Double Tap is already earning raves from those who've seen advance screenings. And star Emma Stone is already on board to keep making a new installment every decade.
Fans have been wondering, however, if Bill Murray will return in the sequel. As you recall, in the 2009 movie, Murray played a fictional version of himself, as a survivor of the zompocalypse, who took to wearing zombie makeup so he could safely walk the streets of Los Angeles. Of course, if you saw the film, you also remember how this tactic backfired on Murray big time.
Box Office: Joker Scores $55 Million Second Weekend
Breaking more October box office records, Todd Phillips' Joker took in an estimated $55 million 3-day haul for its second weekend, breaking the previous 3-day second weekend record set by 2013's Gravity, which took in $43.1 million back in 2013.
As Deadline reports, estimates had Joker pulling in about $10 million less. Right now, heading into its third weekend, the movie is just shy of cracking $200 million domestically. Joker pulled in an additional $125.7 million overseas.
As its global box office hits $500 million, Joker stands as Phillips' second highest-grossing film after The Hangover 2. This will change in a week's time, however.
Fortnite Season 10 Ending Event Appears to Have Destroyed the Entire Map
The Fortnite season 11 event has officially happened, and it appears that the original Fortnite map - the only Fortnite map - is gone.

You can watch the entire event unfold in the video above.
Here's what now happens when you log in to Fortnite:

Hearthstone Player blitzchung Responds to Blizzard Reducing His Ban
Ng Wai “blitzchung” Chung, the Hearthstone player who was banned from professional play for one year by Blizzard, has released a roughly translated statement regarding Blizzard’s decision to reduce his ban and reinstate his prize winnings. Chung thanked his fans for their support over the last week, and expressed gratitude towards Blizzard for its decision to reduce his punishment.
“For tournament prizing, I quoted what Blizzard said on the official website, they mention that I played fair in the tournament and they believe I should receive my prizing,” Chung wrote. “This is the part I really appreciate. Blizzard also said they understand for some this is not about the prize, but perhaps for others it is disrespectful to even discuss it. People from Blizzard had explained this to me through a phone call and I really appreciate that and I accept their decision on this part.”

SNL Mixes Joker with Sesame Street
On the same night host David Harbour, who plays Sheriff Hopper on Stranger Things, discovered a portal to the Upside Down, SNL parodied Joker...by mixing it with Sesame Street!
In the Digital Short, Harbour plays Oscar, a garbage man (who works his daily rounds with Grover) who feels increasingly agitated over the crime-riddled neighborhood of Sesame Street. The Count counts his drugs. Snuffaluffagus is a pimp. Ernie's murdered in a back alley for his rubber duck. It's sheer madness.
All of it makes Oscar, as he confesses to his counselor Susan Robinson (the character Loretta Long's played on Sesame Street since the show started in 1969), a touch grouchy. Enough to paint his face green and start living in a trash can.
SNL: Stranger Things’ David Harbour Travels to the Upside Down
As much as Saturday Night Live host David Harbour wanted to do a monologue that didn't focus on his role as Sheriff Hopper on Netflix's Stranger Things, Stranger Things found him when he went to walk around the set and stumbled upon a gateway to the Upside Down.
First up on his journey into 30 Rock's Upside Down? A captured Aidy Bryant, who Harbour mistook for Barb. Next, the actor watched Beck Bennett get devoured by a Demogorgon. After that, it was all about discovering where Pete Davidson's been at the past few weeks. No, he wasn't filming James Gunn's The Suicide Squad - he was trapped in this nightmare dimension!
Check out Harbour's adventures in the brutal beyond here...
From Jesse to Todd, How the Breaking Bad Cast Have Changed in El Camino
Warning: Spoilers for El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie follow...
The great Heisenberg may have fallen but that doesn't mean Netflix's El Camino - a two-hour epilogue revealing Jesse Pinkman's fate following Breaking Bad's series finale - isn't filled with a fun amount of supporting characters from the show. Yes, including Heisenberg himself, Walter White.
A handful of important dead characters appear in flashback form, as Jesse remembers moments with them while they were alive, while a few who are still kicking play an integral role in his flight from Albuquerque. Also, sadly, Oscar-nominee Robert Forster, who reprised his role from penultimate series episode "Granite State," passed away on the day of El Camino's release.
