Marvel Developing Halloween Special for Disney+, Reportedly Based on Werewolf by Night

Marvel Studios is reportedly developing a Halloween special for Disney Plus, which may take inspiration from Werewolf by Night.

According to The Wrap, Marvel Studios has started searching for an actor to lead the cast of the Halloween special, which is said to be "centered on a werewolf character." The studio is believed to be looking for a "Latino male in his 30s," and it's noted that "individuals with knowledge" of the project suggested the character may be based on Werewolf by Night.

Werewolf by Night is the name adopted by two separate characters appearing across the pages of Marvel comics. The first, Jack Russell, debuted in a 1972 issue of Marvel Spotlight. The series ran for a total of 43 issues and one of those featured the first appearance of Moon Knight, who is now set to headline his own Disney+ show with Oscar Issac in the titular role.

The second incarnation of the character, Jake Gomez, a Native American with a cursed family, showed up last year in the third volume of Werewolf by Night. Gomez's recent appearance in Marvel comics may mean he's the one that fans may initially associate with the Werewolf by Night character, though it's unknown which version will star in the Halloween special.

The special is eyeing a production start in early 2022, so there's a lot of MCU to come before that. Marvel's What If...? recently marked the MCU's very first foray into animation. The nine-episode series will draw to close on October 6, with Hawkeye lined up as the next MCU show to hit Disney+ in November. Ms. Marvel is pencilled in for 2022 along with Moon Knight.

There's plenty coming on the big screen, too. Marvel's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is lined up to be the next Phase 4 movie, releasing in September, with Eternals in November, and Spider-Man: No Way Home in December. After that, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will premiere, serving as the first Marvel movie of 2022.

The first of September also brings with it some classic films to Netflix's library like all four Jaws films, School of Rock, Blade Runner: The Final Cut, Mars Attacks!, the first three House Partys, and both of Eddie Murphy's The Nutty Professor movies.

Despite the Saved by the Bell reboot streaming on NBC's Peacock, the original Saved by the Bell will be available to all Netflix subscribers on September 15.

September 2021 also marks the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the documentary Turning Point: 9/11 and the War on Terror looks to tell this story from "al-Qaida's roots in the 1980s to America's forceful response, both at home and abroad."

New Saints Row Gameplay Shows Off Laser Gun Battles and ‘Keep It Strange’ Motto

Volition and Deep Silver have revealed new gameplay from Saints Row, and its shows that there’s still a little wild madness in the game, despite the more grounded nature of the reboot.

The new “Welcome to Santo Ileso” trailer, which you can watch below, is a seven-minute long introduction to the Saints Row reboot, with developer insights as well as a healthy showing of gameplay. While the overall vibe of the game appears to be closer to Watch Dogs 2, there’s definitely some of Saints Row’s more weird personality here. Enemies can be seen firing laser guns, and explosive helicopter battles and picking beef with huge, militarized international corporations is more akin to the Saints Row games of the past than the more serious-ish GTA games.

The city’s motto is also “Keep it strange”, which suggests that there will be weirdness, even if it’s not on the absurd levels of Saints Row 4 and its superpowers and alien invasions.

The trailer also offers a closer look at the main characters, as well as their adversaries. The Saints is a group of four friends headed up by The Boss, a customisable character controlled by the player. While The Boss has been shown to be a woman by default, the trailer does show a brief glimpse of character customisation options, and shows that a male protagonist can also be chosen, as well as a variety of body types.

The Boss is joined by Eli, an investor looking to make The Saints an enterprise rather than just a group of criminals. Nina is the group’s mechanic and getaway driver, and Kevin is a persistently shirtless wannabe chef. Volition emphasises that the group has “heart”, suggesting a sort of Fast & Furious family vibe for the reboot.

The Saints will butt heads with at least three different enemy factions, each of which has its own territory in Santo Ileso. Marshall is a huge international corporation that employs strategic assassins and high tech equipment - including laser weapons - and intends to secure areas and lock you down. Panteros, meanwhile, is a much more rough-and-ready gang that have bruiser-style troops and attack with melee and heavy weapons. The final group shown in the trailer are the Idols, a bunch of anarchists wearing deadmau5 style helmets that defeat their foes using overwhelming numbers and swarm tactics.

For more from Saints Row, check out our first preview, the first trailer, and the developer's reaction to the initial fan backlash.

No More Heroes 3 Is the End of the Series, Says Creator

Goichi Suda, the CEO of Grasshopper Manufacture and perhaps better known by his alias Suda51, says that the release of No More Heroes 3 marks the end of the series.

In a tweet shared by the No More Heroes 3 Twitter account, Suda joked about the game's official title before stating that it would mark the Travis Touchdown's final chapter.

"This game is called No More Heroes 3 FINAL BOUT - All-Out Galactic War! Or, it was going to be called that but the subtitle was just too long so we ended up taking a hint from the Rocky series and simply going with No More Heroes 3 instead." said Suda. "As hinted at with the 'Final' thing, Travis Touchdown will finally be coming to the end of his final battle, and will be embarking on a much-deserved, long journey."

Following today's release of No More Heroes 3 (August 27), Suda took to Twitter saying that he "truly hope[s] everyone enjoys Travis Touchdown's final battle." The developer also took the chance to thank fans for their kind messages following the game's launch and bid farewell to Travis Touchdowns everywhere.

No More Heroes originally debuted in North America in 2008 when it launched for Nintendo Wii. The series follows anime fan Travis Touchdown who starts out his role living in the fictional town of Santa Destroy, California. After winning a beam katana in an internet auction, the game then follows the character's exploits as he looks to become the top assassin in the fictitious United Assassin's Association.

Following the success of the original No More Heroes, its sequel No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle launched in 2010. No More Heroes 3 was then announced at E3 2019 and is now available to play on Nintendo Switch. Suda51 will take part in a special livestream event to celebrate the release of the game that will be streamed live on IGN Japan’s YouTube channel on August 29 at 6 pm Pacific / 9 pm Eastern (that's August 30 at 2 am UK / 11 am AEST). The event will be viewable entirely in English. If you'd like to find out more about the series' final installment then make sure to check out our No More Heroes 3 review, where we gave it a 6/10.

Amazon Prime Video's September 2021 lineup brings with it the latest take on the classic tale of Cinderella, this time with Camila Cabello as the iconic character. This film has a huge focus on music and features such other stars as Idina Menzel, Billy Porter, Minnie Driver, and Pierce Brosnan.

Check out the official trailer for Cinderella below:

Other Amazon originals include LuLaRich - a four-part docuseries that looks at the rise and fall of LuLaRoe, a multi-level marketing company that "went viral promising young mothers a work-from-home-salvation." Theater fans will also be in for a treat on September 17 when Everybody's Talking About Jamie is released, as this film is not only inspired by true events, but it is an adaptation of the award-winning musical from London's West End.

August is also great for space movie lovers as both Armageddon and Apollo 13 are joining the library on the first of the month alongside other classics like I Know What You Did Last Summer and Romeo + Juliet.

Apple Is Finally Ready to Settle a Years-Old Lawsuit From Developers

As a result of a class-action lawsuit from US app developers, Apple has announced a slew of changes to the App Store as part of a proposed settlement agreement. US developers filed litigation against the tech giant back in 2019 to break the tech giant's "improper monopolization" of iOS apps.

Pending approval from the court, Apple will payout $100 million and also clarify several of its app store policies. Most notably, it will allow developers to reach out to customers (with permission from the user) to collect information inside their apps, allowing them to email about alternative payment options available outside the App Store.

Developers on the App Store could previously communicate with customers outside of their apps and even collect payments outside of their apps (e.g. renewing a Netflix subscription on the official Netflix website). But prior to this proposed settlement, developers were not allowed to communicate with iOS customers about other payment options available outside of the App Store.

However, the potential changes to the app store would still not allow developers to inform iOS users about alternative payment options from within the app itself so that developers could bypass the "app store tax," a 30 percent cut Apple receives from the in-app payment system. Apple's in-app payment cut has been the subject of a different lawsuit filed by Epic Games last year, which a federal judge is currently reviewing after the case was argued in May.

Another concession Apple will make should the proposed agreement get approved for the case Cameron et al. v. Apple Inc, is that the iPhone maker will create a Small Developer Assistance Fund. It will payout $100 million, divided among small developers who make $1 million or less, with payouts varying depending on how many people submit and are approved for their claim. The remaining funds will be donated to the nonprofit Girls Who Code. The website is up, but it is not fully operational, likely due to the settlement pending approval from a judge.
