The cast of NBC's Parks and Recreation will reunite for a one-time scripted charity TV special, the network announced Thursday. The half-hour special -- to be shot from the cast's homes due to self-isolation -- is a fundraising benefit for the charity Feeding America. Pawnee civil servant Leslie Knope is "determined to stay connected to her friends in a time of social distancing," according to NBC's announcement. Confirmed returning cast members include Amy Poehler, Rashida Jones, Aziz Ansari, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plaza, Chris Pratt, Adam Scott, Rob Lowe, Jim O’Heir, and Retta.

Hey, Pawnee! Free up your schedules on April 30, because #ParksAndRec is returning to NBC for “A Parks and Recreation Special”! Together with our neighbors at @StateFarm, we're helping raise money for @FeedingAmerica. We hope to see you there! https://t.co/CYgzmwp3PO pic.twitter.com/NQoXpbmn7R

“Like a lot of other people, we were looking for ways to help and felt that bringing these characters back for a night could raise some money,” said executive producer Michael Schur in a statement. “I sent a hopeful email to the cast and they all got back to me within 45 minutes. Our old Parks and Rec team has put together one more 30-minute slice of (quarantined) Pawnee life and we hope everyone enjoys it. And donates!” “In such uncertain times, we can’t think of anyone better than Leslie Knope to unite our country with her unbridled enthusiasm and compassion,” said Lisa Katz and Tracey Pakosta, Co-Presidents of Scripted Programming, NBC Entertainment. “A huge thank you to Mike Schur and the cast of ‘Parks and Recreation’ for putting this wonderful special together and bringing a smile to all our faces while raising money for such a worthwhile cause.” [ignvideo width=610 height=374 url=https://www.ign.com/videos/2015/02/26/why-parks-and-recreation-was-one-of-tvs-best-comedies-ign-conversation] The cast of the acclaimed sitcom, which ran from 2009 to 2015, previously reunited for a game show in 2017, and are also known to celebrate Galentine's Day together.

WWE confirmed in today’s First Quarter earnings call that WWE 2K21 has been canceled. During a Q&A, WWE interim chief financial officer Frank Riddick revealed “there’s not going to be a launch of a game this year,” when asked about a new WWE 2K title. The confirmation follows rumors that WWE 2K21 was canceled this year. There’s been some turbulence with the WWE 2K series after WWE 2K20 was panned by critics for its poor performance, numerous glitches, and bugs. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-wwe-game-review-ever&captions=true"] Developer Visual Concepts also took over the WWE 2K series after long-time Japanese developer Yuke’s announced it would depart from the series to work on its own wrestling game. While there have been rumors that WWE 2K21 was canceled for weeks now, 2K Games has not commented on the situation. When IGN reached out to the developer earlier this month, the company responded that it would “not comment on rumors or speculation.” [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/10/08/wwe-2k20-mycareer-trailer"] IGN has reached out to 2K again following today’s comments from WWE.

Universal Pictures and the LEGO Group have sealed an exclusive five-year deal "to develop, produce and distribute theatrical releases based on its intellectual property and original ideas," Universal announced Thursday. LEGO had previously made their movies at Warner Bros., including The LEGO Batman Movie. According to Deadline, the original two LEGO Movies, LEGO Batman Movie, and The LEGO Ninjago Movie all "remain in the Warner Bros library." Although Warners' original LEGO films grossed a combined $1.1 billion globally, each film following 2014's blockbuster The LEGO Movie saw sizable drops in their opening weekends and overall box office totals. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/02/10/lego-batman-is-one-of-the-best-reviewed-batman-movies-yet"] What's not completely clear is what rights, if any, Warners may have to continue exploiting or producing sequels to those movies they do have the rights to, or if Universal can use any LEGO Movie characters such as Emmet Brickowski, Wyldstyle, President Business, and the like since they were original creations for the Warners films. (IGN had reached out to Warners for clarification on the matter but had not heard back at time of publish.) According to Deadline, though, it does sound like that's that for any more LEGO Batman screen adventures. "When one of the LEGO films on the drawing board didn’t go forward, a ticking clock expired and the LEGO’s film business became a free agent," the site reports. "Branded IP with proven box office draw doesn’t come along often, and Universal pounced." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2017/09/21/kid-lego-fan-asks-ninjago-cast-the-tough-questions"] Warners' LEGO Movies utilized that company's deep bench of characters and world-famous IP beyond the aforementioned Batman, including a slew of other DC superheroes and villains as well as characters from Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Scooby-Doo, and Speed Racer. Likewise, Universal has many properties that could be exploited in their own LEGO Movies. Universal franchises include Jurassic Park, Fast and the Furious, Minions/Despicable Me, and The Secret Life of Pets, as well the iconic Universal Monsters (including The Mummy). Universal also has Back to the Future, Jaws, Insidious, E.T., The Purge, Woody Woodpecker, Casper the Friendly Ghost, American Pie, Battlestar Galactica, Jason Bourne, Psycho, An American Tail, Land Before Time, Smokey and the Bandit, and Dumb and Dumber. Universal and LEGO previously teamed on the TV special Jurassic World: The Secret Exhibit and the 13-episode mini-series LEGO Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar. LEGO and Universal have also teamed for a LEGO Jurassic World video game. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/09/18/lego-jurassic-world-launch-trailer"] “Universal’s commitment to unique storytelling from diverse voices makes the Studio the perfect partner as the LEGO Group enters this new phase of filmmaking,” said Jill Wilfert, Head of Entertainment, the LEGO Group. Do you want to see Dominic Toretto and the Bandit race each other in a new LEGO Movie? Or maybe a meet-up of the Jurassic Park and Mummy characters? The Insidious crew crossing paths with Casper?

Battlefield 5 will no longer receive major content expansions following a new update scheduled for June, according to the game’s official Twitter account. In a new blog post, developer EA DICE announced that there will be a new update this summer following the conclusion of its current chapter, Into the Jungle, which was themed around the Pacific Theater. That chapter is set to end on April 29.

Correct, and we'll have more details about what's included in the summer update closer to that time.

— Battlefield V (@Battlefield) April 23, 2020

The summer update won’t be a Chapter 7 expansion, but will instead be a standalone update with “some new content, weapons, and game tweaks.” After that, Battlefield 5 will be supported with new Weekly Missions but “otherwise have no further content planned beyond our updates to Community Games and ensuring healthy game performance.” [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-battlefield-review&captions=true"] One of the updates arriving this summer is weekly Battlefield Currency or Company Coin rewards which will let players unlock past gear they may have missed. There will also be community events like the return of the #FridayNightBattlefield servers and Throwback Thursdays. Beyond that, it seems that EA DICE will be closing the book on Battlefield 5. The last military shooter from DICE took the action back to World War 2 after Battlefield 1 took place during World War 1. EA CEO Andrew Wilson confirmed there will not be a Battlefield game released in 2020. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/01/28/battlefield-v-into-the-jungle-overview-trailer"] For more, check out IGN’s Battlefield 5 review. EA also recently promoted Respawn’s Vince Zampella to oversee DICE LA, though that studio typically serves as a support studio and will branch out as an independent studio under Zampella.

Borderlands 3 has announced two new free updates, one which expands the end-game called Mayhem Mode 2.0 and a limited-time event that takes you on a raid on an infamous cartel leader. The first free update is called Mayhem Mode 2.0 and it expands Borderlands 3’s endgame system with new challenges and rewards. Mayhem is a mode that unlocks after beating the main campaign for Borderlands 3 that lets players select random difficulty modifiers in exchange for better loot. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/04/23/borderlands-3-revenge-of-the-cartels-official-trailer"]

Mayhem 2.0 adds 25 new modifiers that range from potentially helpful, to more challenging like Drone Ranger which gives enemies a healing drone. Modifiers are rated from Easy, Medium, Hard, or Very Hard and there are 10 difficulty levels. Modifiers are chosen at random, but always from your chosen rating pool. Stats for weapon drops improve the higher the level, and starting at level 6 specific bosses can drop one of eight brand new Legendary weapons. There’s also a new Mayhem Mode options tab in your ECHO device menu.

The second free update is a new LTE called Revenge of the Cartels. Maurice gets into trouble from cartel kingpin Joey Ultraviolet and you’ll need to infiltrate his mansion Villa Ultraviolet to help your indebted crewmate. New Cartel enemies have spawned around the galaxy, defeat enough of them and you’ll earn the coordinates to Joey’s villa. When you get to the villa you’ll have to face one of three distinct factions of the Eridium Cartel, with each gang having their own unique Underbosses and Legendary loot pool. You’ll have to visit the villa multiple times to face each faction and their unique loot pool.

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-borderlands-review&captions=true"]

Gearbox says you’ll never face the same gang faction twice in a row. Additionally, there are 18 new limited-time challenges for Revenge of the Cartels that players can complete for cosmetic rewards.

Chris Hemsworth is still waiting on some forward momentum around the Hulk Hogan biopic he's been attached to star in since last year, but reveals in a new interview that he remains "fascinated" and "intrigued" by the world of pro wrestling that the movie aims to expose. When ScreenRant asked about the Hulk Hogan project, Hemsworth admitted, "Look, I haven't read a script yet. I know it's being written now and worked on. I know very little about that. It's sort of in the process now." Joker's Todd Phillips is attached to direct the Hulk Hogan biopic, which is being scripted by Joker's Scott Silver along with John Pollono. The movie -- which is expected to be made at Netflix and counts Bradley Cooper among its producers -- will explore Hogan's rise to fame in the 1980s and reportedly won't cover his more recent scandals and lawsuits. [ignvideo width=610 height=374 url=https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/02/20/thors-chris-hemsworth-to-play-hulk-hogan-in-biopic-from-joker-director-todd-phillips-ign-news] IGN named Hulk Hogan No. 3 on our list of the Top 50 wrestlers of all time. In the recent interview, promoting his new Netflix action-thriller Extraction, Hemsworth revealed what drew him to the Hulk Hogan project. "I'm just fascinated by that world, and I think they're pretty keen to show a side of the world that people haven't seen before," Hemsworth said. "I'm as intrigued as you are."

Warner Bros. has confirmed that Tenet is still on target for a theatrical release this summer, so long as theaters are back open for business. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. CEO Ann Sarnoff reaffirmed the studio's commitment to the cinematic experience, as she described Tenet as a "tentpole title" that is pegged for the big screen once it is safe for audiences to return to theaters. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/12/19/tenet-official-trailer"] "We are committed to — and are excited about — releasing Tenet in theaters this summer or whenever theaters reopen. We remain supportive of the theatrical experience and our exhibition partners, and are confident that our tentpole titles, including Tenet and Wonder Woman 1984, are exactly the type of films that will have people eager to return to theaters," she told the outlet. Over the past few months, Warner Bros. has made some significant changes to its release schedule as a result of the COVID-19 global crisis, but Christopher Nolan's time-bending thriller has managed to hold on to its July 17 release slot, making it potentially one of the first big blockbuster-hopefuls to be released this summer, along with Wonder Woman 1984, the other film mentioned by Sarnoff, which is due out a month later on August 14. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-delayed-movie-due-to-coronavirus-so-far&captions=true"] With so many cinema chains closed around the world, film studios have been forced to reassess their forthcoming slates and make decisions on whether to postpone the release of their upcoming titles or shift some of these releases to VOD (video on demand). Warner Bros. recently scrapped the release of Scoob! (originally slated for May 15) in favour of a VOD debut while the theatrical release of In the Heights has been delayed a whole year to June 18, 2021, The Batman has been pushed back to October 1, 2021, and the studio has indefinitely postponed the release of Malignant, which was originally scheduled for the August 14 slot now occupied by Wonder Woman 1984. In addition, Warners has also set new 2022 release dates for two other DC titles. The Flash has moved forward to June 3, 2022 (up a month from July 1), while Shazam 2 has been postponed from April 1, 2022 to November 4, 2022. Plus, David Chase's The Sopranos prequel film, The Many Saints of Newark, has been pushed from September 25, 2020 to March 12, 2021, amongst several other shifts, shake-ups, and delays in the industry.
