Aside from Joker: Folie à Deux, there will be no Batman-related films on the big screen for just over two years. The Batman – Part II was originally slated to arrive in 2025, but it was recently pushed back. Now, Andy Serkis, the actor who played Alfred Pennyworth in The Batman, has revealed when the sequel will begin filming.
Via Popverse, Serkis was a guest at ACE Superhero Comic Con 2024 over the weekend. And while Serkis said he didn’t know any details about The Batman Part II’s story, he was very open about the film’s schedule.
“Basically, I know nothing about the movie other than that I’ve just found out that we’re probably likely to be starting filming early next year,” related Serkis. “Therefore, if you do the math, it’ll be a year and a half after that.”
Aside from Serkis, Robert Pattinson will be back as Bruce Wayne/Batman alongside Jeffrey Wright as James Gordon. Beyond that, it’s less clear who else will return and which villain will be featured in t…

Read moreCity of Brass opens with an ominous warning about the many dangers lurking within its cursed city, before dropping a tantalizing tease of incredible wealth should you manage to overcome all of its obstacles. You play as a thief trying to reach the mythical treasure through endless foes and dangerous traps, and if you’re able to overlook some technical and presentation shortcomings, there’s a lot of fun to be had with City of Brass’s thoughtful combat and first-person dungeon crawling.
City of Brass is a roguelike which takes place over 12 procedurally generated levels and one final boss battle, and every playthrough is different. Shifting level layouts, enemy spawn points, and different trap types require you to be on your toes, and keep the game engaging and continually surprising. But though it’s exciting to experience “new” levels in each playthrough, the presentation leaves a lot to be desired.
Each of the twelve levels is broken d…
Read moreSurviving until you’re the last player or team standing in Call of Duty: Warzone is no longer the only way to win a match of the popular battle royale game.
With the upcoming Season 1 Reloaded update, Warzone is introducing the ability to perform a “covert exfil.” Players can purchase these from buy stations before the gulag closes, and there are only five available per match. Purchasing a covert exfil calls in a helicopter that will fly you out of the battlefield and into safety.

Read more“Oh go on, just one more go,” screams my inner monologue as I try for what feels like the 9,000th time to rack up a gold standard time on a National A license test, “You’re only 0.15 seconds off, you can do it.” Once again I miss an apex, brake too late, or turn in too early, and I fall shy of the highest tier. I swear quietly and hit retry again. And probably several more times afterward. That’s the joy of Gran Turismo 7: You can always do better, you’ll always want to do better, and it’s just a few quick button stabs away.
In the latest entry in the PlayStation’s top-flight race series, perfection isn’t only famed producer Kazunori Yamauchi’s aim–it swiftly becomes yours. It plays as close to driving a real car as you can get on a console, and much like shaving a few seconds off your commute, or playing on your favorite road in the real world, the game draws you in with challenges, physics, and luscious visuals. The first numbered Gran Turismo since the PS3’s Gran Turismo 6…

Read moreFleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been tapped to co-star alongside Harrison Ford in the upcoming fifth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise, according to a release. Indiana Jones 5, which doesn’t yet have an official title, will hit theaters July 29, 2022.
“I’m thrilled to be starting a new adventure, collaborating with a dream team of all-time great filmmakers,” said the film’s director, James Mangold (Ford v Ferrari, Logan). “Steven, Harrison, Kathy, Frank, and John are all artistic heroes of mine. When you add Phoebe, a dazzling actor, brilliant creative voice, and the chemistry she will undoubtedly bring to our set, I can’t help but feel as lucky as Indiana Jones himself.”
This is a bit of encouraging news for the movie, which recently lost its writer in June 2020 after director Steven Spielberg reduced his role to instead be a producer May 2020. All that’s known about this new entry is it will not be a reboot or reimagining–this upc…
Read moreWhen it comes to superheroes-turned-street fighters, DC Comics’ stable of superfriends have always received the short end of the stick. While Marvel enjoys the steady success of Capcom’s legendary Vs. series, the likes of Justice League Task Force and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe have not done DC any favors. Injustice: Gods Among Us, the latest fighter from the house of Mortal Kombat, aims to break this combo with a fighting system that builds upon the lessons of MK, while also introducing a few new tricks. But for all its complexities, Injustice unfortunately falls short when compared to its contemporaries.
