In this adventure, our cherished bear character revisits his origins to unravel the mystery behind Aunt Lucy’s disappearance from her retirement home. This rollercoaster journey through the jungle introduces an array of quirky characters, not forgetting the resilient Brown family who always find themselves learning valuable lessons. The movie faces the common challenge of any sequel: balancing the inclusion of established characters with introducing fresh ones. Emily Mortimer steps into the role previously played by Sally Hawkins as Mary, and Olivia Colman joins the cast as a suspect Reverend Mother. Both performances are captivating, and Antonio Banderas provides plenty of humor as a ghostly riverboat captain.

According to Deadline, it appears that John Lithgow is nearing a deal to take on the role of Professor Albus Dumbledore in the forthcoming Harry Potter reboot for HBO. Although there were several actors vying for this prestigious part, Lithgow seems to have secured one of the most exciting TV productions underway at the moment. The six-time Emmy Award recipient has long been due for a significant franchise role, and if the deal goes through, he will be portraying Dumbledore for the foreseeable future. It’s worth noting that Lithgow was previously nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor on two occasions, for Terms of Endearment and The World According to Garp.

Babygirl

Produced and directed by Halina Reijn (known for Bodies Bodies Bodies), this captivating film first hit theaters on Christmas Day last year and was available for rental or purchase a month later on January 28, 2025. In the near future, it will be accessible on Max as A24 has secured a distribution deal with them.

Babygirl generated an impressive $59 million at the global box office, ranking it as the ninth highest-grossing film for A24, according to The Numbers.

In the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, “First Steps,” there’s been a lot of speculation among fans about whether Sue Storm (The Invisible Woman) could potentially be pregnant. Some have suggested that certain shots may have digitally concealed a baby bump. This isn’t too far-fetched when you consider similar editing techniques used in other movies, such as adding The Hulk to the Avengers: Infinity War trailer or omitting Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield from the final shot of Tom Holland in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

The “Memoriam Marathon” will feature a selection of the director’s key films, including “Mulholland Drive,” “Inland Empire,” “Blue Velvet,” and “Wild at Heart.” These movies will be introduced by cinematographer Frederick Elmes, who has worked closely with the director for a long time.
