Tenet: New Trailer Premieres Tonight on Fortnite
Original story follows. [poilib element="accentDivider"] For anyone excited for Christopher Nolan’s highly-anticipated new movie, Tenet, you will be able to watch the brand new trailer on Fortnite starting tonight. In the latest collaboration with Epic Games’ popular battle royale shooter, Warner Bros. is premiering the brand new Tenet trailer on Fortnite’s virtual big screens. The new Tenet trailer will premiere at the top of every hour starting at 5 pm PT/8 pm ET tonight, May 21. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/12/19/tenet-official-trailer"] The first trailer for Tenet was released in December, but while the first trailer showed off a mysterious time-reversal power of some sort, it’s hard to fully grasp the true plot of the film. The official synopsis simply states that an agent must prevent World War III. This isn’t the first time Fortnite premiered new footage for an upcoming movie. Star Wars premiered exclusive trailers and events in Fortnite before. Even the nascent streaming service Quibi premiered shows directly on Fortnite. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-delayed-movie-due-to-coronavirus-so-far&captions=true"] Tenet is still scheduled to premiere in theaters on July 17. Whether it will be able to during the COVID-19 pandemic remains to be seen. [poilib element="accentDivider"] Matt Kim is a reporter for IGN.The idea of debuting the TENET trailer came from a phone call with Christopher Nolan. We were all talking about our love of seeing new trailers in a THEATER and how sad we were that we can’t do that right now - but how maybe this could be the next best thing. Hope you love it!

Tenet: New Trailer Premieres Tonight on Fortnite
Arrowverse Architect Scripting Spidey Spin-Off Jackpot
Jackpot followed scientist Sara Ehret who gains superpowers through a virus that altered her DNA. Boasting super strength, she becomes a crime-fighting mom who had to balance the duties of both family and superheroism.
Ehret briefly handed the mantle of Jackpot over to the ill-fated Alana Jobson before returning to the role. Fans had long speculated that Jackpot, who sported long red hair and used the expression "Tiger," was actually Peter Parker's beloved Mary Jane Watson but that did not turn out to be the case.

Jackpot isn't the only comic book movie Marc Guggenheim is currently working on. He's also writing the feature film adaptation of Rob Liefeld's Prophet and is adapting the graphic novel Gantz for Sony.
Other Spidey spin-offs in development include Kraven the Hunter and Madame Web, the latter of which will reportedly be directed by Jessica Jones' S.J. Clarkson.Arrowverse Architect Scripting Spidey Spin-Off Jackpot

“Our team has recognized that a recent post by us using a logo has been misinterpreted by media and it does not reflect any information from our end, and we deny knowing any information regarding the launch of [Grand Turismo 7],” Next Level Racing said in a statement. “There have been assumptions made in the media that are quite simply untrue. Due to this, we have decided to take down our previous social post.”
Next Level also added at the end, “Our Graphic Design Department used the mock logo that is circulated on the internet.”

IGN reached out to Sony regarding the appearance of the Gran Turismo 7 logo but have not heard back in time for publication of this story.
Whether the media is at fault for Gran Turismo 7 rumors is another matter. Although internet rumors are a part of the news cycle, it doesn’t help if a company publishes a mock logo for a game that hasn’t been announced alongside very real logos of games that have been announced. This could create unnecessary assumptions.
