Bryan Singer Reportedly No Longer Directing Red Sonja
Bryan Singer is reportedly no longer directing Red Sonja following the allegations surrounding the director.
As reported by THR, Bryan Singer has possibly been dropped as director of Red Sonja because of the allegations that he sexually assaulted underaged boys and that Avi Lerner, founder and CEO of Millennium Films, has been unable to "secure a domestic distributor" because of it.
Last month, THR also reported that the Conan spinoff Red Sonja had been put on hold for a similar reason, but no confirmation of his departure as director was confirmed.

Rotten Tomatoes Considering Further Changes to Audience Reviews Process
Rotten Tomatoes is reportedly said to be considering further changes to its audience reviews process following continued negative posts by trolls.
As reported by THR, Rotten Tomatoes may soon require users to verify that they have actually "seen the film in question before being allowed to post a critique."
It is unclear how this will work, but it's another potential play to quell these baseless negative reviews that have specifically affected Captain Marvel since its release.
Rotten Tomatoes announced its initial change to the rating system last month and removed the option for fans to comment and "rate" films prior to its actual release as a way to avoid negative reviews being posted by users before they have actually seen the movies in question.

Everyone Is Freaking Out About an Unfounded Rumor of Sony Acquiring Take-Two

Initially reported by MarketWatch in a stock market overview pertaining to Bowing and Brexit, a small note about Take-Two Interactive popped up. MarketWatch has since revised the article, but the full pertinent section previously read:
The Bizarre History of Crackdown 3
On June 9th, 2014, almost four years to the day after Crackdown 2 was released, Microsoft revealed the third game in the Crackdown series was coming to the company’s brand-new console, the Xbox One.
It would be a cooperative, open-world game, touted as a new iteration of the action series, featuring a whole new campaign, and using Xbox Live to power a city. And that city... it wouldn’t just be an exciting place to play, but part of your destructive arsenal.
