Jake Paul will soon be a playable character in Undisputed, the boxing video game.

As a dedicated film enthusiast, I can’t help but admire Miles Raymond from the 2004 movie “Sideways,” who was renowned for his discerning taste in wines. Not every Hollywood figure can match his expertise, but fortunately, I’ve found that local sommeliers and wine experts are more than willing to offer their insights for end-of-year celebrations, thoughtful gift-giving, and serious wine collecting.

In this realm, surprises aren’t exclusive to future films set in 2024; instead, life often serves up unexpected twists. A prime example of such unpredictability surfacing recently is the confirmation that actress Amber Heard is expecting her second child. Upon the announcement of this joyous news, a representative for the star of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom offered additional details, along with a reminder to exercise patience for those following the story.

When “On Call” premieres on streaming platforms for Amazon Prime subscribers, viewers will soon discern that this cop drama offers a fresh take unlike Dick Wolf’s usual productions such as the “Law & Order” series, the “One Chicago” shows, or CBS’ “FBI” dramas. However, it appears that aficionados will encounter a familiar figure from those realms when the show airs in 2025, as the initial trailer for the series has disclosed that a former star of “Chicago Fire” is included in the cast.

As we dive into the festive season, many are immersed in classic Christmas movie viewing, but let me remind you that not everyone is skipping their Disney+ subscription this week to catch “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew”. For those who find it challenging to persuade their family to join the latest 2024 sci-fi series bandwagon, there’s an argument that this show aligns with holiday viewing due to a playful nod to the infamous 1978 holiday special.
