Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo to Join Robert Pattinson in Bong Joon Ho’s Sci-Fi Movie
Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo are set to join Robert Pattinson in Bong Joon Ho's upcoming sci-fi movie.
As reported by THR, the new film is based on Edward Ashton's novel Mickey7 and will be Bong's first movie since Parasite won Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay at the 2020 Oscars. The plot has been described as a mix between Andy Wier's The Martian and Blake Crouch's Dark Matter.
Pattinson and Ackie are said to have officially signed deals while Ruffalo and Collette are still in talks to join the project.
In the novel, Mickey7 is a man on an expedition to colonize the ice world Niflheim. What makes Mickey7 unique is that he is basically an expendable employee that has been sent to do a job that is deemed too unsafe for a normal human.
When he dies, he comes back as a clone with most of his memories intact. However, this story will tell what happens when Mickey7 is presumed dead but is still very much alive and finds out a new clone, Mickey8, has taken his place.
Bong will write, direct, and produce the currently untitled film for his production company Offscreen and Warner Bros., Kate Street Picture Company, and Plan B will produce the project.
Fans of Bong's work will also be happy to know he is an executive producer on HBO's Parasite series, which will be an original story set in the same universe as the movie.

iFixit Prematurely Listed Every Steam Deck Replacement Part It Plans to Sell
iFixit prematurely revealed all the parts it plans to sell for the Steam Deck that will soon allow you to fix Valve's latest handheld by yourself, if you so choose.
As reported by The Verge, iFixit was already known to be one of the authorizrd sellers of Steam Deck replacement parts, but the collection of the parts were not quite ready to be announced yet, including the motherboard with the AMD Aeirth chip for $350.
It appears that some orders were even placed, and iFixit said it will honor those that made it in.
"Earlier today we published some pages related to our upcoming parts launch with Valve," iFixit wrote on Twitter. "These went live earlier than we planned, so we ended up taking them down. If you did get a parts order in, we'll honor it. Stay tuned for the real launch soon!"
iFixit's parts will do more than simply let you fix your Steam Deck, as some parts could be an upgrade to certain models. This means those that purchase the 64GB or 256GB models will soon have the chance to purchase and install the 512GB model-exclusive premium anti-glare etched glass for $95.
All in all, iFixit confirmed there will be 23 distinct parts, and they are as follows

For those in the UK, GamingOnLinux has a partial list of prices in your region as well.
One of the big pieces missing from this list is the Steam Deck battery. According to iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens, the team is working on it.
"We are building a solution for repairing the Steam Deck that includes all the step-by-step guides and parts that you need to fix your Deck," Wiens said. "Our initial release includes the parts and tools to complete most repairs.
"We don’t have a solution for battery repairs on day one, but we are committed to working with Valve to maintain these devices as they age. Battery replacements are going to be essential to making the Steam Deck stand the test of time."

Kate McKinnon, Pete Davidson, and Others Set to Leave Saturday Night Live
Kate McKinnon, Pete Davidson, Aidy Bryant, and Kyle Mooney are all reportedly set to leave Saturday Night Live when its 47th season comes to a close on Saturday, May 21.
As reported by THR, these four cast members' last episode will be hosted by Russian Doll's Natasha Lyonne and musical guest Japanese Breakfast.
McKinnon joined Saturday Night Live in 2012 and is known for her celebrity impressions, including Hillary Clinton, Rudy Giuliani, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Elizabeth Warren, Justin Bieber, and many more. During her time at SNL, she was nominated for nine Primetime Emmy Awaards and won in both 2016 and 2017.
She has found success outside of SNL, and has starred in such films at 2016's Ghostbusters, Balls Out, Office Christmas Party, Rough Night, and more.
Pete Davidson joined SNL in 2014 and has also found a lot of success outside of SNL. In 2020, he co-wrote and starred in the semi-autobiographical comedy The King of Staten Island, and has since starred in The Suicide Squad, Bodies Bodies Bodies, and Marmaduke.
He is also dating Kim Kardashian and has been a big focus of the internet since then alongside his other work.
Aidy Bryant joined Saturday Night Live alongside McKinnon in 2012 and has been nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards for her work. She has also starred in the animated series Danger & Eggs and the sitcom Shrill.
Kyle Mooney joined SNL in 2013 and is known for a lot of his on-the-street interviews. Outside of SNL, Mooney has starred in HBO's Hello Ladies and the film Brigsby Bear.

NBC Reportedly Offered to Merge With EA
NBCUniversal reportedly almost merged with Electronic Arts, as Comcast CEO Brian Roberts apparently approached EA CEO Andrew Wilson with a proposal to combine the entertainment media company with the gaming giant.
According to Puck, both NBCUniversal and EA's lawyers and bankers negotiated for weeks about how a potential merger would take place. The general proposal reportedly had the Roberts family take control of the combined company, but with current EA CEO Andrew Wilson running the company.
If Wilson had been the CEO of the merged company, then the current NBCUniversal CEO, Jeff Shell, reportedly would have been given a higher role within Comcast — and Shell was reportedly involved with the discussions as well.
During the last month of discussions, the proposal didn't go through due to disagreements surrounding the price of the merger and how it would be structured. But amid the mergers and acquisition trend in the games industry right now, EA reportedly spoke with other big companies such as Disney, Apple, and Amazon about potentially being acquired.
EA's interest in acquisition has reportedly increased since Microsoft bought Activision Blizzard earlier this year. Though a primary concern for any merger for EA will allow Wilson to stay as CEO of the combined entity.
As recently as March, EA also reportedly approached Disney in order to pursue a "more meaningful relationship," instead of just simply doing licensing deals as it does with something like the Star Wars games.
EA spokesperson John Reseburg didn't comment on this specific rumor, but provided a statement to Puck, saying, "We are proud to be operating from a position of strength and growth, with a portfolio of amazing games, built around powerful IP, made by incredibly talented teams, and a network of more than half a billion players. We see a very bright future ahead."
NBCUniversal once had its own games publishing business but shut it down back in 2019, only after under 3 years of starting it.

TikTok Is Already Testing Games as Part of Its Service
As part of the ongoing trend of streaming platforms like Netflix adding games to their services, TikTok is now planning a push into the gaming world.
According to a report by Reuters, TikTok is currently testing the addition of minigames to its app starting with a pilot period in Vietnam.
Anonymous sources told Reuters that the platform has plans to expand its test to other areas in Southeast Asia in the third quarter. Additionally, they claimed that TikTok’s plans for gaming will eventually expand beyond minigames, signaling a new era for the video-sharing app.
It’s unknown when or if the games being tested in Vietnam might launch to a wider audience. However, TikTok already has a few HTML5 games available for users in the United States, including Zynga’s endless runner Disco Loco 3D.
This isn’t ByteDance’s — TikTok’s parent company — first foray into the gaming world. The company already owns Pixmain and Nuverse, two video game publishers. Douyin, a version of TikTok available in China, also offered games to its users since 2019.
According to Reuters, TikTok will likely utilize ByteDance’s library of games for its in-app games.
And TikTok isn't stopping there. The app recently saw the addition of an invisible dislike button and is also testing out subscriptions for influencers’ feeds.

Destiny 2: Where Is Xur Today? Location and Exotic Items Guide for May 20-24
The cloaky lad, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week's reset. If you're looking to get your some shiny new Exotic armor or weapons for your Guardian, look no further.
Each week, Xûr has a random assortment of Exotic armor, one for each Guardian class, as well as a random Exotic Weapon and an Exotic Engram available for purchase. In addition to his Exotic wares, he's got a random collection of Legendary weapons and armor to deck out your Guardians.
We've rounded up all the info on Xûr for the week including where to find Xûr, which Exotic weapons and armor are available, as well as which Legendary weapons you should pick up, either for PvE or PvP.
Where Is Xûr This Weekend?
Xûr's location today can be found at Watcher's Grave on Nessus on May 20 through May 24. To reach him, travel to the landing point at Watcher's Grave. When you arrive, make for the red moss-covered tree straight ahead. Climb up the roots and you'll find Xûr waiting at the top to sell you exotic items and legendary weapons.
What Is Xûr Selling This Weekend?
Exotic Engram
Telesto - Exotic Fusion Rifle
Gemini Jester - Exotic Hunter Leg Armor
- 16 Mobility
- 14 Resilience
- 2 Recovery
- 2 Discipline
- 24 Intellect
- 2 Strength
- Total: 60
Actium War Rig - Exotic Titan Chest Armor
- 7 Mobility
- 3 Resilience
- 20 Recovery
- 6 Discipline
- 9 Intellect
- 16 Strength
- Total: 61
Verity's Brow - Exotic Warlock Helmet
- 16 Mobility
- 7 Resilience
- 9 Recovery
- 19 Discipline
- 2 Intellect
- 7 Strength
- Total: 60
Unfortunately, our Exotic armor offerings this week are a bit disappointing, but on the bright side Xur is selling Telesto, which single-handedly breaks the game ever season without fail and has broken the poor Bungie devs down to their rawest components to build them back in Telesto's image. You should definitely buy it if you don't have it yet.
Exotic Weapons
Hawkmoon - Exotic Hand Cannon
- Paracausal Shot
- Smallbore
- Alloy Magazine
- Eye of the Storm
- Textured Grip
Dead Man's Tale - Exotic Scout Rifle
- Cranial Spike
- Corkscrew Rifling
- High-Caliber Rounds
- Outlaw
- Composite Stock
No God rolls for either of these weapons this week, but the Dead Man's Tale on offer isn't half bad (especially for PvP) and should do in a pinch. Unless you need one for collections though, we've seen better in the past and likely will again.
Legendary Weapons
Long Shadow - Sniper Rifle
- ATD Raptor/ATA Scout
- Extended Mag/Flared Magwell
- Snapshot Sights
- Explosive Payload
- Stability Masterwork
Seventh Seraph Saw - Machine Gun
- Corkscrew Rifling/Polygonal Rifling
- High-Caliber Rounds/Light Mag
- Auto-Loading Holster
- Vorpal Weapon
- Reload Speed Masterwork
Seventh Seraph SI-2 - Sidearm
- Chambered Compensator/Full Bore
- Tactical Mag/Alloy Magazine
- Hip-Fire Grip
- Elemental Capacitor
- Range Masterwork
Whispering Slab - Combat Bow
- Flexible String/Polymer String
- Fiberglass Arrow Shaft/Helical Fletching
- Quickdraw
- Demolitionist
- Accuracy Masterwork
Widow's Bite - Sniper Rifle
- Full Bore/Hammer-Forged Rifling
- tactical Mag/Flared Magwell
- Firmly Planted
- Disruption Break
- Range Masterwork
Royal Entry - Rocket Launcher
- Countermass/Linear Compensator
- High-Velocity Rounds/Impact Casing
- Field Prep
- Thresh
- Velocity Masterwork
Eternal Blazon - Scout Rifle
- Transmission MS7/Flash HS5
- High-Caliber Rounds/Flared Magwell
- Killing Wind
- Unrelenting
- Stablility Masterwork
No must-have God rolls this week, exactly, but the Eternal Blazon roll is almost as good as it gets with scout rifles, and arc scouts can be hard to come by, so scoop it up if you don't have a good roll. Similarly, it can be hard to get ahold of a good machine gun and the Seventh Seraph Saw roll this week is actually not half bad. Grab that as well if you don't have one.
Warlock Legendary Armor
For Warlocks, Xûr is selling the Holdfast set which includes:
Holdfast Gloves
- 22 Mobility
- 9 Resilience
- 2 Recovery
- 2 Discipline
- 12 Intellect
- 19 Strength
- Total: 66
Holdfast Chest Armor
- 2 Mobility
- 13 Resilience
- 13 Recovery
- 13 Discipline
- 6 Intellect
- 10 Strength
- Total: 57
Holdfast Helmet
- 19 Mobility
- 2 Resilience
- 12 Recovery
- 18 Discipline
- 7 Intellect
- 7 Strength
- Total: 65
Holdfast Leg Armor
- 6 Mobility
- 26 Resilience
- 2 Recovery
- 6 Discipline
- 9 Intellect
- 16 Strength
- Total: 65
Holdfast Bond
We've got some pretty spikey Warlock rolls this week, including the helmet and leg armor, but the helmet above all else. That said, not a lot of these pieces go together super well, so hopefully one or two of them works with an existing build you're crafting.
Titan Legendary Armor
For Titans, Xûr is selling the Holdfast set which includes:
Holdfast Gauntlets
- 14 Mobility
- 9 Resilience
- 9 Recovery
- 8 Discipline
- 6 Intellect
- 17 Strength
- Total: 63
Holdfast Chest Armor
- 14 Mobility
- 15 Resilience
- 2 Recovery
- 20 Discipline
- 2 Intellect
- 9 Strength
- Total: 62
Holdfast Helmet
- 14 Mobility
- 9 Resilience
- 6 Recovery
- 11 Discipline
- 18 Intellect
- 2 Strength
- Total: 60
Holdfast Leg Armor
- 2 Mobility
- 16 Resilience
- 9 Recovery
- 16 Discipline
- 8 Intellect
- 8 Strength
- Total: 59
Holdfast Mark
My fellow Titans...we've been fleeced by The Nine this week! Fleeced, I say! There aren't any really good pieces or armor this week. The gauntlets and the chest piece are just okay, but...we can probably save our legendary shards this week. Boo, Xur! Boo!
Hunter Legendary Armor
For Hunters, Xûr is selling the Holdfast set which includes:
Holdfast Grips
- 2 Mobility
- 20 Resilience
- 11 Recovery
- 18 Discipline
- 6 Intellect
- 9 Strength
- Total: 66
Holdfast Chest Armor
- 17 Mobility
- 6 Resilience
- 7 Recovery
- 9 Discipline
- 12 Intellect
- 12 Strength
- Total: 63
Holdfast Helmet
- 2 Mobility
- 6 Resilience
- 21 Recovery
- 2 Discipline
- 19 Intellect
- 10 Strength
- Total: 60
Holdfast Leg Armor
- 9 Mobility
- 7 Resilience
- 14 Recovery
- 2 Discipline
- 21 Intellect
- 6 Strength
- Total: 59
Holdfast Cloak
The Hunters don't have a ton this week, but what they do have is fantastic. Those gloves are insane and you should buy them. Might also consider the chest armor, but they're certainly not at the same level as the gloves.
That's a wrap on Xûr for this week, Guardians! Hope you're all enjoying your adventures in the Witch Queen's throne world. Congrats to Warlocks for winning Guardian Games! It only took you three years!
