IGN serves a global audience, so we will be covering films that may be available theatrically in some countries but not others due to local COVID-19 restrictions. Read more on IGN's policy on movie reviews in light of COVID-19 here. IGN strongly encourages anyone considering going to a movie theater during the COVID-19 pandemic to check their local public health and safety guidelines before buying a ticket. If in doubt, stay home — keep yourself and others safe. [poilib element="accentDivider"] With No Time to Die, Black Widow, and Wonder Woman 1984 being further delayed due to COVID, news rolled in on Friday about an expected partial shutdown of the second largest theater chain in the U.S., Regal. Per Deadline, Christopher Nolan's Tenet, which made $2.7 million in its sixth weekend for a cumulative $45.1 million domestic total, had a 12-week booking at most theaters - and now Regal is temporarily closing 115 of its "300-400" currently open theaters, with 65 closing down temporarily starting Monday and another 50 keeping weekend hours. It's not known at this moment if Regal will wind up closing all its locations as the ones being affected right now are the lesser-performing sites. Reporting further, Deadline says that if Regal closes down fully it will be an "18% blow to the domestic box office." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=igns-best-reviewed-movies-of-2020&captions=true"] Right now, Cineworld/Regal hasn't stated anything publicly. Yet still, the pushing back of No Time to Die also has Cineworld considering shutting down, possibly indefinitely, all its screen in the U.K. and Ireland. Cineworld is the U.K.'s biggest cinema operator. If you've seen Tenet, check out our Tenet review along with this explainer of Tenet's mind-blowing ending.

Japanese media and YouTubers recently had a chance to go hands-on with the PlayStation 5, and their previews showcased the PS5's hardware, games - including Astro's Playroom and Godfall - the DualSense, and more. AV Watch was one of the Japanese publications that was able to test out the PlayStation 5, and even though Sony still wasn't willing to show off the PS5's UI, we did learn a couple interesting facts. [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="480"] Source: AV Watch[/caption] One of these is that the Sony has made the decision to make "X" the standard confirm button for all regions. In the past, "O" was always the confirm button for Japan, while in North America and Europe, "X" was always chosen. This could usually be changed in the menus, but it appears Sony Interactive Entertainment has decided to create some consistency with the regions around the world. It was also noted how quiet the PlayStation 5 was in action, which will be a welcome change from how some of the most taxing games make the PS4 sound a bit like a jet engine. Furthermore, AV Watch mentions that the DualSense's buttons also make less noise when pressed as opposed to the DualShock 4. Speaking of the DualSense, 4Gamer gave us a glimpse at how its new light bar looks with various colors, including blue, red, green, and purple. [caption id="attachment_2416549" align="aligncenter" width="528"] Source: 4Gamer[/caption] All the publications touched upon how the adaptive triggers and haptic feedback feel, how quickly the SSD allowed games to cut down on load times and get you instantly back into the game. We also got a good look at the PS5 hardware itself, and these previews show up-close images of the PS5 vertically and horizontally. [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="800"] Source: Dengenki Online[/caption] [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="640"] Source: Dengeki Online[/caption] The lucky few Japanese YouTubers, including ファミ通TUBE, 花江夏樹, ポッキー, and SANNINSHOW, shared footage of Astro's Playroom and Godfall in action, and you can check out the footage by clicking the links above. The PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 5 Digital Edition will be released on November 12 in the US, Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea and November 19 in all other territories. The PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition will cost $499 USD and $399 USD, respectively.

To celebrate the 42nd anniversary of Stephen King's landmark novel, The Stand, which terrified unsuspecting readers when it landed back in 1978, CBS All Access dropped a quick new teaser on social media to hype its upcoming 9-part adaptation of the book starring James Marsden, Greg Kinnear, Whoopi Goldberg, Amber Heard, Ezra Miller, Heather Graham and Alexander Skarsgard. From The New Mutants' Josh Boone, The Stand is a supernatural epic that takes place in a dystopian future where 98% of humanity's been decimated by a plague and the remainders are embroiled in an elemental struggle between good and evil. The fate of mankind rests on the frail shoulders of the 108-year-old Mother Abagail (Goldberg) and a handful of survivors. Skarsgard, seen in the tease here, plays famous King villain Randall Flagg - aka the "Dark Man" - a demonic figure who's been featured in nine of King's books, including the Dark Tower series.

While we already know that Jamie Foxx's Electro will be joining the MCU in the upcoming Spider-Man 3, Foxx has seemingly just revealed that this new version of Electro he will be playing won't be blue this time around. As reported by ComicBook.com, a now-deleted Instagram post by Foxx detailed his excitement and teased "can't wait for y'all to check this new one. And I won't be blue in this one. But a thousand percent badass!!! #swipeleft." [caption id="attachment_241648" align="alignnone" width="720"] Source: Jamie Foxx's Instagram via ComicBook.com[/caption] Originally appearing in 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Foxx played a blue version of Electro, who wore a green and yellow outfit in Marvel's comics. It's yet unclear which version Foxx will be playing in the upcoming film, or if he will even be the same version of Max Dillon that he played in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Foxx isn't the only non-MCU Spider-Man character confirmed to make an appearance in future Marvel films as, during the post-credits scene from Spider-Man: Far From Home, we saw the return of another one who may imply a possible multiverse between the various movies. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=ranking-the-spider-man-movies&captions=true"] What's even more interesting is that with the addition of Electro, we now have five of the six members of the Sinister Six appearing in the MCU alongside Vulture, Mysterio, Scorpion, and Shocker. Could this be setting up an inevitable MCU Sinister Six movie for the future? Spider-Man 3 is set to begin filming in Atlanta this Fall after a delay that pushed back the planned release date to December 17, 2021.

After landing an unprecedented five-year deal with Netflix worth $300 million dollars, Glee and American Horror/Crime Story creator Ryan Murphy has his next Netflix series in sight - the story of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. After making The Politician, Hollywood, and Ratched for Netflix, Murphy and co-creator Ian Brennan will usher in a limited series called Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. Per Deadline, Richard Jenkins (The Shape of Water) has already been cast as Dahmer's father, Lionel - a "chemist, who showed [Dahmer] how to safely bleach and preserve animal bones when he was a child." The 10-episode limited series will span "the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s and ends with Dahmer’s arrest in the early ’90s," while also dramatizing "at least 10 instances where Dahmer was almost apprehended but ultimately let go." Casting is currently underway for Dahmer himself as well as Glenda Cleveland, a "neighbor of Dahmer’s who repeatedly tried to warn law enforcement of his erratic behavior, to no avail." [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-best-horror-movies-on-netflix&captions=true"] Production for Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story will start in January.
