Which Avenger Does Captain Marvel Want to Fight?
Captain Marvel actress Brie Larson has revealed that she wants to go head-to-head with The Hulk.
Speaking with USA Today, Larson talked about tangling with the Avenger. "I do kind of have fantasies of battling The Hulk, just because that's, like, it's just visually so good," she said.
She'll have to get in line, though, since The Hulk will next appear in Thor: Ragnarok later this year. Plus, the Captain Marvel movie is set in the early 1990s, a decade before Bruce Banner's radiation accident.

Game of Thrones: New Photos Show Daenerys, Jon Reunion
Game of Thrones' fourth episode of Season 7, "The Spoils of War," was one of the biggest episodes the show has ever done, and its follow up, "Eastwatch," is looking to be even bigger.
In addition to the promo for Season 7, episode 5, HBO has released eight new photos for "Eastwatch," which can be viewed below. These images show a reunion between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen, as well as Tyrion Lannister walking the battlefield after the showdown with the Lannister forces.
While these images mostly focus on character interactions between people like Jon and Dany, Varys and Tyrion and Sam and Gilly, with a title like "Eastwatch," it seems likely that the next episode of Game of Thrones could be building up to a confrontation with the Night King and his army, which we know were last seen near Eastwatch-by-the-Sea.

Each campaign will feature most of the elements from the Fallout series, like the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. leveling system, event cards for main and side quests, and RPG-like moral decisions that'll dramatically change the outcome of each campaign.

Hey, crazy babies, it's time for another Wrestling Wrap U...SWEET FANCY MOSES!

Donald Glover on Han Solo Director Switch
Lando actor Donald Glover has come forward to share his thoughts on the production on the Han Solo movie, which hasn't been entirely smooth, with the removal of directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller from the project, and Ron Howard stepping in to finish the film.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Glover weighed in on the director switch, likening his situation to that of a kid caught in the middle of a divorce. "I feel like I was the baby in the divorce, or the youngest child," he said. "The oldest child is like, 'We know what's happening, but we are keeping you out of it.' And I'm just like, 'Was that scene good? How did you feel?'"
