IGN First – Exclusive Poster for Red Sparrow
All month long, IGN First is spotlighting the Films to Watch in 2018. Today, we have an exclusive new teaser poster for Red Sparrow, a spy thriller from 20th Century Fox and director Francis Lawrence that stars Jennifer Lawrence, Joel Edgerton, Matthias Schoenaerts, Charlotte Rampling, Mary-Louise Parker and Jeremy Irons. Red Sparrow opens stateside March 2, 2018.

Hemsworth Talks Thor’s Future in the MCU After Avengers 4
Chris Hemsworth has only been playing Marvel's mighty Thor for seven years, but in that short span, he's reprised the character just as many times (or more, if you count director Taika Waititi's hilarious Team Thor short films) -- having just wrapped filming on Joe and Anthony Russo's Avengers: Infinity War and its untitled follow-up, Avengers 4.

Overwatch PTR Update Nerfs Mercy
Blizzard has made some balance changes to Overwatch heroes Mercy and Junkrat in its latest Public Test Realm (PTR) update.
Mercy's Resurrect was rebalanced last year, but, as detailed on Blizzard's official forums, it needed to be nerfed a bit more because her ability to use Resurrect through Valkyrie lessened the impact of the prior balance changes. As such, Valkyrie "no longer makes Resurrect instant" and "no longer grants a bonus charge of Resurrect."
The PTR update also decreases the Speed boost provided by Valkyrie via Guardian Angel by 50 percent and reduced its duration from 20 seconds down to 15 seconds.

Full spoilers for Marvel's Agents of SHIELD's winter premiere, "Fun & Games," continue below.
Neither space nor time can keep the First Couple of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD from being together. The Season 5 winter premiere, "Fun & Games," not only finally reunited Fitz and Simmons after five episodes apart, but also saw the first engagement of the TV series.
It's a moment that the cast sees as a long time coming. IGN was on set for the big proposal scene (well, the second one, when Jemma could actually hear Fitz) and spoke to stars Iain de Caestecker and Elizabeth Henstridge about their reaction to this latest FitzSimmons plot twist.

Be advised the following chat does involve SPOILERS for Insidious: The Last Key!
IGN: I want to know about how this came your way. Was this all set to go, Leigh
had a screenplay and was looking for a director? Or did you pitch it?
Adam Robitel: I knew
James Wan socially, through
Lin Shaye actually. We had been to a bunch of different events and parties and James was really, really supportive of my first film and gave me a lot of advice. And I had known Lin, had been in a couple of horror films as an actor with Lin. So there was that, and James really responded to my first film and was very sweet about it in the press and very supportive.

I had read an earlier draft and went in with an idea for an entity, because a lot of the first draft was this idea of… there are spoilers, is that okay?
