Final thoughts and excitement for Season 2

  • Shogun is officially getting a second season with filming set for January 2026 in Vancouver.

  • The story jumps ten years ahead, placing us deeper into the Edo era with Toranaga in power but on unstable ground.

  • Expect fewer large scale battles and more political maneuvering as Toranaga manages a fragile new alliance.

  • Both Toranaga and Blackthorne return, played again by Hiroyuki Sanada and Cosmo Jarvis, alongside the original supporting cast and many new characters.

  • The creative team, including key writers and directors from Season 1, is back, even though the show is now telling an original story beyond the book.

  • The scale and cost of production suggest a long post production window, making a likely release sometime in 2027.

  • “It kind of gives us an era when Toranaga is in power, but it is fragile.”

  • “It will probably be less battles and more juggling this fragile new alliance that he is building.”

  • “They are no longer pulling from the book, they are beyond that at this point.”

  • “With the very expensive and long shoot, it is probably not going to release till 2027, but cameras are rolling.”

  • “We have something happening that is incredible. I cannot wait for another season of Shogun.”

Batman: Brave and the Bold

Batman: Brave and the Bold

The DCEU Press Event was held by Warner Bros. on Monday and provided fans with updates on the future of the superhero franchise. The co-chairmen and CEOs of DC Studios, James Gunn and Peter Safran, confirmed the new project, “The Brave and the Bold,” which will introduce the new DCU Batman. This Batman will not be played by Ben Affleck or Robert Pattinson, who starred in previous Batman movies.

Tomb Raider Expanded

Tomb Raider Expanded

Amazon Studios has hired Phoebe Waller-Bridge to write a TV series as part of a potential “Tomb Raider” franchise that would include TV, film, and games. Waller-Bridge could also be involved in a potential movie. The TV series will be produced by Amazon Studios’ former Head of Comedy Ryan Andolina and Amanda Greenblatt, with Legendary also said to be involved. This is part of Amazon’s multi-platform approach which also includes a new “Tomb Raider” single-player game. The “Tomb Raider” franchise was previously held by MGM but is now owned by Amazon Studios, which is handling the film-TV universe and not MGM. The franchise was previously made into a movie series with Angelina Jolie and a reboot with Alicia Vikander, but a sequel had been delayed by the pandemic. The “Tomb Raider” franchise started as a hit action-adventure game in 1996. -------------------- *Check Out All Our Podcasts!* Geek Freaks Podcast: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaks Pushing Buttons: https://linktr.ee/PushingButtonsPodcast TrekFreaks: https://linktr.ee/TrekFreaks Headlines: https://tinyurl.com/2p8bvu6d Geek Freaks Interviews: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaksInterviews Outlast Podcast: https://linktr.ee/OutlastPodcast Round Three: https://linktr.ee/RoundThree Disney Moms Gone Wrong: https://linktr.ee/disneymomsgonewrong Sloop: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast -------------------- *Hang Out With Us!* Discord: https://discord.gg/6Jrvyb2 Twitter: twitter.com/geekfreakspod Facebook: facebook.com/groups/227307812330853/ Instagram: instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast E-mail: thegeekfreakspodcast@gmail.com Twitch: twitch.tv/geekfreakspodcast Site: thegeekfreakspodcast.com --------------------- *Support Us!* Patreon: https://patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast Store: redbubble.com/people/GeekFreaks

Authority and Creature Commandos

Authority and Creature Commandos

The Authority is a high-concept superhero team from the independent superhero setting of Wildstorm comics, which was initially published by Image Comics and later became part of the DC Comics universe. The team was created by writer Warren Ellis as a boundary-pushing reflection and celebration of the Justice League and the Avengers. The Authority’s members, including Jenny Sparks, Jack Hawksmoor, the Doctor, the Engineer, Swift, Midnighter, and Apollo, were designed as more realistic superheroes and had a fighting optimism about the world. The series became a trendsetter for superhero storytelling in the new millennium and was followed by the loud, brash, and controversial style of writer Mark Millar and artist Frank Quitely. The Authority was integrated into the DC Comics universe after the Wildstorm universe was bought by DC. In 2021, a miniseries titled “Superman and the Authority” was released, imagining a near-future in which Superman leads the Authority. The Creature Commandos animated TV series will be written by James Gunn and will feature military superhumans including a human leader, a werewolf, a vampire, Frankenstein’s monster, and a gorgon. The show will also include the character Weasel from Gunn’s Suicide Squad. The animation will lead into live-action and back into animation, allowing for “gigantic and huge” stories without a large budget. The Creature Commandos were introduced in 1980 and are created by J. M. DeMatteis and Pat Broderick. -------------------- *Check Out All Our Podcasts!* Geek Freaks Podcast: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaks Pushing Buttons: https://linktr.ee/PushingButtonsPodcast TrekFreaks: https://linktr.ee/TrekFreaks Headlines: https://tinyurl.com/2p8bvu6d Geek Freaks Interviews: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaksInterviews Outlast Podcast: https://linktr.ee/OutlastPodcast Round Three: https://linktr.ee/RoundThree Disney Moms Gone Wrong: https://linktr.ee/disneymomsgonewrong Sloop: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast -------------------- *Hang Out With Us!* Discord: https://discord.gg/6Jrvyb2 Twitter: twitter.com/geekfreakspod Facebook: facebook.com/groups/227307812330853/ Instagram: instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast E-mail: thegeekfreakspodcast@gmail.com Twitch: twitch.tv/geekfreakspodcast Site: thegeekfreakspodcast.com --------------------- *Support Us!* Patreon: https://patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast Store: redbubble.com/people/GeekFreaks

Lanterns

Lanterns

The Greg Berlanti Green Lantern series development has been scrapped, and a new series called “Lanterns” is being developed by James Gunn and Peter Safran, the new heads of DC Studios. The previous Green Lantern series was to be based on a space opera, while the new series is described as a “True Detective”-style terrestrial-based investigation. The Green Lantern series was expensive with multiple stories but was eventually reduced to focus on Alan Scott and Guy Gardner. The cast was then scrapped, and a new direction was decided to focus on John Stewart. The new series is seen as a “foundational series” for the main story across film and TV, and the actors who play the Lanterns will also be seen in the movies. The series will allow for the exploration and development of characters, which is not possible in a movie. Gunn and Safran are already talking to actors about the new series, and the show will be a “huge HBO TV-style event”. Berlanti, who was previously involved in the Green Lantern series, has scaled back his DC shows and is unlikely to be involved in the new DC Studios.

Showtime Merges Into Paramount +

Showtime Merges Into Paramount +

Paramount Global is rebranding its premium cable network Showtime as “Paramount+ with Showtime” in the US. The two brands will be integrated in the streaming world and Showtime content will be available on Paramount+’s premium tier. Chris McCarthy will lead the Showtime studio and oversee network operations while Tom Ryan will oversee the Paramount+ with Showtime streaming business. Some shows are being cancelled due to “diverting investment away from underperforming areas.” Bob Bakish said the changes aim to make Paramount+ “the definitive multiplatform brand in the streaming space.” Some layoffs may occur and details will be shared in the coming weeks. -------------------- *Check Out All Our Podcasts!* Geek Freaks Podcast: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaks Pushing Buttons: https://linktr.ee/PushingButtonsPodcast TrekFreaks: https://linktr.ee/TrekFreaks Headlines: https://tinyurl.com/2p8bvu6d Geek Freaks Interviews: https://linktr.ee/GeekFreaksInterviews Outlast Podcast: https://linktr.ee/OutlastPodcast Round Three: https://linktr.ee/RoundThree Disney Moms Gone Wrong: https://linktr.ee/disneymomsgonewrong Sloop: https://www.patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast -------------------- *Hang Out With Us!* Discord: https://discord.gg/6Jrvyb2 Twitter: twitter.com/geekfreakspod Facebook: facebook.com/groups/227307812330853/ Instagram: instagram.com/geekfreakspodcast E-mail: thegeekfreakspodcast@gmail.com Twitch: twitch.tv/geekfreakspodcast Site: thegeekfreakspodcast.com --------------------- *Support Us!* Patreon: https://patreon.com/GeekFreakspodcast Store: redbubble.com/people/GeekFreaks

Negan and Invincible - Walking Dead Alum Hints at Possible Invincible Role

Jeffrey Dean Morgan teased fans of the Prime Video animated series “Invincible” by posting a photo on Instagram of him buying two comic book compendiums of the series, sparking speculation that he will join the show’s cast. Robert Kirkman, the co-creator and executive producer, was thanked in the caption, but Amazon Studios has not yet confirmed Morgan’s involvement.
