Hulu has finally announced Atlanta's premiere date. The comedy-drama series created by Donald Glover wrapped up filming back in August, but a premiere date wasn't decided until now.

FX's John Landgraf also said back in August that season three was in lengthy post-production because season four is in production, with all of the scripts for it having already been written.

Both seasons three and four were scheduled to air in 2021, but production was reportedly postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Landgraf explained that part of the reason for the silence around a premiere date was because of Hiro Murai and Donald Glover's schedules. However, he did mention that Atlanta would be coming back during the first half of 2022.

It looks like that promise came through and fans can look forward to a brand new season of Atlanta next March. Atlanta's second season premiered in 2018, so it's been almost 4 years. It's received quite a bit of fanfare considering the show's Twitter account has been relatively quiet, only posting a brief teaser last month — its first post of 2021.

In the meantime, check out IGN's Atlanta review, which earned an 8/10.

Michael Keaton is becoming an increasingly prominent part of the DC Extended Universe. Keaton was already confirmed to be reprising his role as Batman in The Flash, but now it appears that he will be starring in Batgirl as well.

The news comes via new casting info from the Warner Bros. 2022 film preview, which has Keaton's name attached to Batgirl. Fans speculate that he will serve as a mentor for Barbara Gordon, who will be portrayed by In the Heights' Leslie Grace. Brendan Fraser will reportedly play Firefly, who will be one of the film's major villains.

Back in October, writer Christina Hodson described Batgirl's plot as an exploration of duality. "What's kind of funny about Barbara [Gordon] and Batgirl is that in this story, she's discovering Batgirl for the first time," Hodson explained. "So she's getting to explore a duality she's always had in her personality, but it's this whole new side of her personality, a side that's more daring and slightly less normal side of her that we just get to have fun and play with."

We also got a glimpse of Batgirl's suit via official concept art, which looks pretty neat.

In the meantime, Michael Keaton's appearance isn't the only surprise leaked by the Warner Bros. cast list. The Flash also appears set to feature the return of two prominent DCEU villains.

Batgirl is currently in the midst of filming, with a release date on HBO Max set for 2022.

It takes a lot of money to put together a high-fantasy series like Wheel of Time, what with all the magnificent vistas, giant capes, dramatic horseback riding, flashy weaponry, and all that magic. In fact, it turns out it's one of the most expensive shows Amazon has ever made.

This was confirmed by Vernon Sanders, co-head of TV at Amazon Studios, in an interview with IGN. He brought this up when I asked about previous statements made by showrunner Rafe Judkins that the budget was "tiny" compared to Amazon's other high-fantasy adaptation, Lord of the Rings.

"Wheel Of Time is one of our most expensive shows that we've ever made," he replied. "So we are really proud of the investment and we think that it shows on screen, and we're spending more in season two than season one."

Sanders couldn't give any specific numbers, but elsewhere in our interview he expressed a lot of optimism around these high-fantasy and sci-fi novel adaptations as fodder for epic storytelling opportunities Amazon is interested in. He's adamant, for instance, that Wheel of Time won't get cannibalized in future seasons by Lord of the Rings' higher profile and budget, and that the two shows will help build one another's audiences over time.

He is also feeling positive about Amazon's collaboration with Neil Gaiman on the Good Omens series, as well as its relationships with the Tolkien estate and the various stakeholders on Wheel of Time, such as the Jordan family. Amazon may also be looking at other literature in similar genres for future endeavors.

"It is the age of genre and fantasy fandom," Sanders said. "I think what's coming, at least here, what's coming at Prime Video and Amazon will blow people away, and so we couldn't be more proud to be the home of that content."

We also spoke to Sanders about Amazon's ideal of the Wheel of Time series spanning all 14 of Robert Jordan's books plus the prequel, as well as the show's debut success with over 1.16 billion minutes of watch time (per Nielsen) and continued growth.

We really enjoyed the first three episodes of Wheel of Time, saying the series was "gorgeous, well acted, and strongly written" and had a good balance of source material understanding without holding on too tightly to the original. The most recent episode was a bit less exciting for us, and the series' first season will be wrapping up at the end of this week. Wheel of Time has already been renewed for a second season.

John Wick: Chapter 4 is officially being delayed close to a year, with Lionsgate pushing it all the way into early 2023.

The disappointing news was conveyed via a charming but nevertheless mildly depressing video featuring the Wickverse's switchboard operators. The new release date is featured prominently on the chalkboard: March 24, 2023. It was originally set to release in May 2022.

"Be seeing you," the clip says at the end.

This news comes despite John Wick 4's filming being completed back in November. It will reportedly be named John Wick Chapter 4: Hagakure, and will apparently delve "deeper in terms of the code of assassin."

John Wick isn't the only movie being delayed. Back in October, Disney announced delays for pretty much the entire Marvel slate. More delays can likely be expected amid the latest wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the meantime, Keanu Reeves is starring in The Matrix Resurrections, where he can be found sporting a beard and hairstyle that is reminiscent of John Wick. You can see the entire John Wick 4 cast here.

If you're at all aware of Robert Jordan's high fantasy book series, The Wheel of Time, you probably know one thing: it's a long, long series. But Amazon wants to eventually cover the whole thing with its TV adaptation, even the prequel.

In an interview with IGN, Amazon Studios co-head of TV Vernon Sanders said the company is currently focused on the present, but would love for the series to eventually span all 14 Wheel of Time books and the prequel.

"Our ideal is to work with [showrunner] Rafe [Judkin] and the team on the full thing," he said. "Obviously that's a ways down the road. So we're focused on where we are right now. And Rafe and the team have just shared the first few episodes of season two, and I wish I could get those out to everyone right away. They're just, they're great."

Wheel of Time was renewed for a second season earlier this year, before the first season had even debuted. Sanders attributes this to Judkins's strong pitch and work on the show up to that point:

"That was just based on the creative conviction and Rafe's work on season one, and his pitch and layout for season two and beyond was so compelling that we had every confidence that we had a show that people would love and a show that demanded to go on," he said. "So this is all confirmation of our instincts, but it really is all credit to Rafe and the work that they're doing."

Sanders also tells us that the first three episodes of the show "did very well" in terms of viewership and that new episodes since have had "incredible growth" with "hundreds of millions of streams" worldwide for the series, a claim that's backed up by Nielsen's reporting of 1.16 billion minutes of watch time for the premiere. He also repeatedly mentioned "high, high completion rates," saying that Wheel of Time ranked "very high" for an Amazon series so far in terms of viewers continuing to watch the series after they had begun it.

Our review of the first three episodes of Wheel of Time found it "gorgeous, well acted, and strongly written" with a good understanding of the source material that wasn't loyal to excess. We were a little less thrilled about the most recent episode, but with the finale debuting this week we can hope that it ties the season together in a way that'll leave us wanting the rest of the 14-book saga to get a chance.
