<p>James Gunn and Peter Safran's tenure as the heads of DC Studios has barely begun and already their decisions have evoked controversy and outrage among a section of fans.

Fans of the earlier DCEU built by Zack Snyder have been trolling Gunn on Twitter, making him release a statement that their abuse will not deter him and Safran.</p>

<p>Now, James Gunn has said that he will not have the same problem that Snyder had when he was in charge of the <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/all-upcoming-dc-movies-shazam-2-the-flash-man-of-steel-2-and-others-530628">DC movie universe</a></strong>. Infamously, Warner Bros fired Snyder during the post-production of 2017's 'Justice League', and a lot of the film was reshot by Joss Whedon. The film flopped anyway.</p>

James Gunn says DC films won't face studio interference: 'With Zack Snyder...'

As per Box Office Mojo, the film has grossed $497 million. The sequel to 2009's 'Avatar', the film is the first of the four purported sequels and continues the story of the Sullys as they flee the retaliation of the earthlings after their defeat at the end of the first film. Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana reprise the respective roles of Jake Sully and Neytiri. Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Giovanni Ribisi, Dileep Rao, and Matt Gerald also return in their roles.&nbsp;</p>

'Avatar The Way of Water' nears $500 million at the global box office

<p>Ever since <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-when-quentin-tarantino-rejected-johnny-depps-casting-in-pulp-fiction-541213">Johnny Depp </a></strong>and Disney parted ways, the fate of the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise has been uncertain. We haven't had a 'POTC' movie since 2017's 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales'. And Depp and the House of Mouse did not exactly say goodbye amicably. Earlier this year, Depp, during his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, said in no uncertain terms that he will never work with Disney again. The studio had earlier fired Depp after Heard accused him of domestic violence. A female-led spinoff starring Margot Robbie was announced, with 'Birds of Prey' scribe Christina Hodson writing the script.&nbsp;</p>

<p>But then Robbie in November said it may not be moving forward at all, something producer Jerry Bruckheimer denied earlier this month. Beyond that, there has been little confirmation of it actually happening.</p>

<p>Until now, that is. Now, Jerry Bruckheimer has said clearly that the script is still in development, and the project is not, in fact, dead in the water.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He told The Hollywood Reporter, "Oh God, they’re all hard [to crack.] I think we’re getting very close on [Pirates 6], too. We have a very good script. We developed two of them — the one with Margot Robbie and one with a younger cast. The Margot Robbie one needs a little more work. The younger cast one is close. Hopefully we’ll get both of them. [Robbie's Pirates film is] alive for me. It’s alive for Disney. I’m sure she was disappointed it didn’t go first — or maybe not because she’s very busy, so it might be a blessing to push this a bit. We believe we’ll get it made. It’s a very strong story."</p>

<p>Earlier, Robbie had said to Vanity Fair that the film might not be made as there has been no update from Disney.

<p>For almost a decade now, DC films have tried to catch up with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and have failed. There have been a handful of individual successes, sure, but as a unified cinematic universe, DC movies have failed. Analysts have said that the biggest reason for that is the absence of a figure like Kevin Feige (Marvel Studios boss) at DC -- somebody who knows comics intimately and is also familiar with the business side of things.</p>

<p>Both Gunn and Safran have a great track record in creative and financial terms, respectively, when it comes to superhero movies. But fans expect that the earlier cinematic universe built by Zack Snyder is being phased out and that involves recasting of major characters, since DCU will likely feature younger superheroes, and that involves recasting.</p>

One of the things Peter & I were aware of when we took the job as heads of DC Studios was a certain minority of people online that could be, well, uproarious & unkind, to say the least. — James Gunn (@JamesGunn) December 19, 2022 × He added, "We were aware there would be a period of turbulence when we took this gig, & we knew we would sometimes have to make difficult & not-so-obvious choices, especially in the wake of the fractious nature of what came before us. But this means little to us in comparison to our jobs as artists & custodians in helping to create a wide & wonderful future for DC."

There have been a handful of individual successes, sure, but as a unified cinematic universe, DC movies have failed. Analysts have said that the biggest reason for that is the absence of a figure like Kevin Feige (Marvel Studios boss) at DC -- somebody who knows comics intimately and is also familiar with the business side of things. Both Gunn and Safran have a great track record in creative and financial terms, respectively, when it comes to superhero movies. But fans expect that the earlier cinematic universe built by Zack Snyder is being phased out and that involves recasting of major characters, since DCU will likely feature younger superheroes, and that involves recasting.

<p>Canadian rapper Aubrey Drake Graham, better known by his stage name Drake, lost <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/will-drake-curse-haunt-messi-rapper-places-1-million-bet-on-argentina-544268">a $1 million bet </a></strong>after Argentina defeated France in the final match of the Qatar-set FIFA World Cup on Sunday. The singer had indeed bet on Argentina winning the game, but Lionel Messi-led team had tied the score 3-3 with France and emerged victorious 4-2 only in penalty shoot-outs. The market Drake had bet in, called the 1x2 market, does not consider the extra time in which the penalties take place. Thus, only the first 90 minutes of the game were counted. Drake had earlier shared a screenshot of the bet on his Instagram profile. He has deleted the post since then.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Fans of Messi and Argentina were earlier worried about the so-called 'Drake curse'. The rapper is notorious for betting against the team or player who usually ends up being the winner. Argentina almost did not escape the curse, but the said jinx clearly does not extend to the penalties.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Elon Musk recently learned the perils of letting his followers vote on important decisions regarding Twitter. He had asked his over 120 million followers whether he should quit as head of Twitter. 57.5 per cent said he should, and the rest disagreed. Meanwhile, popular rapper Snoop Dogg ran a parallel vote. He asked his fans as to whether he should run Twitter and was voted overwhelmingly by fans to be the next head of the social media site. While 81 per cent voted yes, 19 per cent voted no. Clearly, Dogg running Twitter has its takers, though it is anybody's guess what the platform would look like if Dogg really were to take over.</p>

<p>Britain’s royal family stuck to routine and remained silent Friday over the second half of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan’s<strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-harry--meghan-is-biggest-debut-for-a-documentary-title-on-netflix-542987"> documentary series</a></strong>,&nbsp;which made hard-hitting claims against Harry’s brother, Prince William.</p>

<p>While the first half of the six-part Netflix series concentrated on the couple’s bruising encounters with the British media, the final three episodes aimed criticism at the royal “firm” – the family and its staff.</p>

<p>Also Read:&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-harry--meghan-is-biggest-debut-for-a-documentary-title-on-netflix-542987">`Harry &amp; Meghan` is biggest debut for a documentary title on Netflix</a></strong></p>

<p>In three hour-long episodes released Thursday, Harry claimed William screamed at him during a family meeting and accused palace officials of lying to protect his elder sibling, who is now heir to the throne. Meghan talked about wanting to end her life as she struggled to cope with toxic press coverage.</p>

<p>Harry, a grandson of the late Queen Elizabeth II, married U.S. actress Meghan Markle in a fairy-tale wedding at Windsor Castle in 2018. Less than two years later the couple left Britain, citing what they saw as the media’s racist treatment of Meghan and a lack of support from the palace.</p>

<p>In the documentary Harry, 38, said William lashed out at him during a family summit at Sandringham Castle in January 2020 to talk about the couple’s plan to step down as senior royals.</p>

<p>“It was terrifying to have my brother scream and shout at me and my father say things that just simply weren’t true. And my grandmother, you know, quietly sit there and take it all in,” Harry said.</p>

<p>He also accused royal communications officials of “leaking” and “planting” stories in the media, claiming staff would seek to deflect negative coverage of one royal by issuing a story about another member of the family.</p>

<p>Meghan, 41, revealed she thought about killing herself amid a torrent of negative media coverage before the couple decided to make a break with the royal household.</p>

<p>“It was like ‘All of this will stop if I am not here,’” she said.</p>

<p><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/f9WMpiH8qd8" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Harry added that he believed the Mail on Sunday’s publication of a letter Meghan wrote her estranged father — over which she successfully sued the paper’s publisher — contributed to her having a miscarriage in 2020.</p>

<p>Neither Buckingham Palace, which represents the king, nor William’s Kensington Palace office has commented on the series.</p>

<p>There were no dissenting views in the documentary, which included interviews with the couple and supportive friends and commentators.</p>

<p>Royal expert Pauline Maclarnan, author of “Royal Fever: The British Monarchy in Consumer Culture,” said the relationship between William and Harry would be “very hard to repair” after the bombshell claims.</p>

<p>“This does seem to be very final,” she said.</p>

<p>Hours after the final episodes were released, senior royals put on a show of unity, attending a Christmas charity concert in London on Thursday evening. William, his wife Kate and their two elder children, George and Charlotte, were joined at the Westminster Abbey carol concert by King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla and other family members.</p>

<p>British newspapers, the focus of much of the couple’s ire, were furious about the series. The Daily Mail said in an editorial that “the only saving grace” was that Queen Elizabeth II, who died in September, “was spared seeing this tawdry exercise in self-promotion.”</p>

<p>The Sun branded Harry a “traitor,” contrasting him with “dutiful” William.</p>

<p>The Times of London urged Meghan and Harry to give up their royal titles, Duke and Duchess of Sussex.</p>

<p>“Harry and Meghan must see the hypocrisy of claiming still to be royal,” the newspaper said in an editorial. “They have made clear that they consider themselves to be at war with the institution of monarchy, an institution that they appear to hold in contempt.”</p>

<p>The show comes at a crucial moment for the monarchy. The king is trying to show that the institution still has a role to play after the death in September of his mother, whose personal popularity dampened criticism of the crown during her 70-year reign.</p>

<p>While the Netlfix series has soured the couple’s relationship with the royal family — perhaps irreparably — Maclarnan said it would likely help the couple forge their new careers as U.S.-based charity campaigners and media personalities.</p>

<p><strong>SPOILER ALERT</strong></p>

<h2>What happens in 'Avatar: The Way of Water'?</h2>

<p>In 'The Way of Water', as mentioned above, the Sullys flee the new home of the Omaticaya Clan, inside one of those floating mountains (Hallelujah Mountains). Chasing them is none other than Colonel Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang), the Big Bad of the original who died but left behind his stored memories. Now he lives, after a fashion, as a Recombinant, in an Avatar. Now, not only he is vengeful, he has the strength, senses, and reflexes of the Na'vi.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Sullys make their way to home of the Metkayina. Initially unwilling and hostile, the leaders of the clan, Tonowari (Cliff Curtis) and Ronal (Kate Winslet) eventually take the fugitives in and teach them their aquatic ways. Unbeknown to them, the Sullys have brought the war right to their shores.</p>

<p>The Sully children—three of theirs and two adopted—make uneasy bonds with the Metkayina, many of whom deem them freaks due to their different appearance (simian tale as opposed to fin-like tail, and so on). One of Sully's trueborn children, Britain Dalton's Lo'ak, comes across an outcast tulkun called Payakan, a whale-like friendly aquatic mammal, and finds kinship with him—what with they being the ignored ones in their family.</p>

<p>Eventually Quaritch and other Recombinants find the Metkayina home (by torturing and killing the other Na'vi clan) and abduct the Sullys children. Miles Socorro (Jack Champion), one of the two adopted children of Jake and Neytiri and the only human one turns out to be the son of the Colonel. Disowning his name, he prefers to be called 'Spider'. In a brief battle involving projectiles like bullets and arrows lead to every kid except Miles being rescued.&nbsp;</p>

<p>To draw the Sullys out, Quaritch teams up with the Pandora version of whalers (humans, of course) to kill the tulkuns. It does the trick. Lo'ak attempts to warn his tulkun friend Payakan, and his siblings and the children of Tonowari and Ronal follow. Turns out, &nbsp;Payakan is the Colonel's next target, and they all get captured.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Finally, Jake and the Colonel meet face to face. Colonel on the ship, and Jake in the air on his Mountain Banshee and all seems lost when Jake surrenders himself in exchange of his children's safety. Suddenly, the Payakan, who was freed by the children, attacks the ship and damages it, also killing most of the crew. A fierce battle ensues in which Neteyam (Jamie Flatters), Jake and Neytiri's eldest child, is shot and dies.</p>

<p>Jake and the Colonel fight beneath the sinking ship and eventually Jake comes out on top. A drowning Colonel is, however, saved by &nbsp;Miles. He goes on to reject him after the rescue, however, and joins the Sullys.</p>

<h2>What does the ending promise for the franchise as a whole?</h2>

<p>The humans of the earth and the Pandoran Na'vi were already at loggerheads with each other even before the events of the original. Now it is going to be an all-out war. Jake and Neytiri will have to seek help of other Na'vi clans if they have to stood any chance of survival before the upcoming onslaught. Humans, on the other hand, are firmly established on Pandora and likely will be reinforced by more soldiers. Humans are clearly better armed, sporting rifles, warplanes, missiles, and other explosives, Na'vi will have to use their connection with Eywa, and the natural world, to turn the tide of war in their favour.&nbsp;</p>

Miles Socorro (Jack Champion), one of the two adopted children of Jake and Neytiri and the only human one turns out to be the son of the Colonel. Disowning his name, he prefers to be called 'Spider'. In a brief battle involving projectiles like bullets and arrows lead to every kid except Miles being rescued. To draw the Sullys out, Quaritch teams up with the Pandora version of whalers (humans, of course) to kill the tulkuns. It does the trick. Lo'ak attempts to warn his tulkun friend Payakan, and his siblings and the children of Tonowari and Ronal follow. Turns out, Payakan is the Colonel's next target, and they all get captured. Finally, Jake and the Colonel meet face to face. Colonel on the ship, and Jake in the air on his Mountain Banshee and all seems lost when Jake surrenders himself in exchange of his children's safety. Suddenly, the Payakan, who was freed by the children, attacks the ship and damages it, also killing most of the crew. A fierce battle ensues in which Neteyam (Jamie Flatters), Jake and Neytiri's eldest child, is shot and dies. Jake and the Colonel fight beneath the sinking ship and eventually Jake comes out on top. A drowning Colonel is, however, saved by Miles. He goes on to reject him after the rescue, however, and joins the Sullys. What does the ending promise for the franchise as a whole? The humans of the earth and the Pandoran Na'vi were already at loggerheads with each other even before the events of the original. Now it is going to be an all-out war. Jake and Neytiri will have to seek help of other Na'vi clans if they have to stood any chance of survival before the upcoming onslaught. Humans, on the other hand, are firmly established on Pandora and likely will be reinforced by more soldiers. Humans are clearly better armed, sporting rifles, warplanes, missiles, and other explosives, Na'vi will have to use their connection with Eywa, and the natural world, to turn the tide of war in their favour. 'Avatar 3' releases on December 20, 2024.

'Avatar The Way of Water' ending explained: How James Cameron film teases a war-torn future for Pandora

<p>Peyton Reed, the director of 'Ant-Man' movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is done with the franchise being considered a 'palate cleanser' for the 'Avengers' movies. The movies, which star Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly in the roles of Scott Lang or Ant-Man and Hope van Dyne or Wasp, are comedic in tone, and generally lighter than the rest of the MCU. But the third movie, titled 'Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania', ups the ante considerably. As the Big Bad, it has none other than Kang the Conqueror, played by Jonathan Majors. Earlier, Majors had played the role of He Who Remains in the finale of 'Loki' season 1, a gentler variant of Kang.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Reed was speaking to Entertainment Weekly when he said, "People felt like, Oh, these are fun little palate cleansers after a gigantic Avengers movie. For this third one, I said, 'I don't want to be the palate cleanser anymore. I want to be the big Avengers movie. I grew up a real Marvel comics nerd, and there are a handful of antagonists in the Marvel comics universe who are all-timers. Loki, obviously. Doctor Doom from the Fantastic Four. And Kang the Conqueror."</p>

<p>He added, "In conversations with Kevin Feige and Marvel, it was like, I want to put Ant-Man and Wasp up against a really formidable villain in this movie, and so we're doing Kang the Conqueror. In the comics, Kang has dominion over time, he's a time traveler. His situation is a little bit different in this movie, which I won't spoil for you, but he's someone who, [while] we live very linear lives, from childhood to death, Kang doesn't exist that way. It struck me as interesting to take the tiniest Avengers — in some people's minds maybe the least powerful Avengers — and put them up against the most powerful force in the multiverse."</p>

<p>Notably, Kang will also be the villain of 'Avengers: Kang Dynasty', the fifth 'Avengers' movie which is set to be released in 2025. Kang is a popular character among comic book readers. As his title 'Conqueror' hints, he loves conquering. But his conquests are not of land but temporal. A descendant of Nathaniel Richards, which is also Kang's own name, and also of Reed Richards, better known as Mister Fantastic, Kang found out about the time travel technology invented by Doctor Doom and sought to use it, thus becoming a conqueror of temporal domains.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In Kang Dynasty, Kang attacks the earth along with his son Marcus or Scarlet Centurion (a mantle that was earlier held by Kang). The huge storyline is certainly worth an 'Avengers' movie.

'Ant-Man 3' will rival 'Avengers' movies in scale, promises director Peyton Reed

<p>Now that 'Avatar: The Way of Water' is out in theatres, only two important projects remain to be released this year: <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-babylon-review-roundup-heres-what-critics-think-of-brad-pitt-margot-robbies-period-drama-543925">'Babylon' </a></strong>and 'Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery'. While the former will release in theatres, the latter, which did get a limited theatrical release in the US, will release on Netflix worldwide. 'Babylon', starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie, is helmed by Oscar-winning director Damien Chazelle. Jean Smart, Tobey Maguire, Olivia Wilde, Samara Weaving, Max Minghella, Flea, Lukas Haas, Eric Roberts, Jovan Adepo, and Li Jun Li also star.</p>

<p>The film has garnered attention for its scenes that allegedly contain unrelenting debauchery to accurately portray 1920s Hollywood. The film seems to be what you would get if you were to combine 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' and 'The Wolf Of Wall Street'.</p>

<p>Brad Pitt revealed to The Hollywood Reporter details about one buzz-worthy party scene that is said to be particularly, um, unrestrained.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He said, "The first day was a bit shocking, even for me. I went, ‘Wow, wow, we’re really doing this." He added that the scene had "a lot of nudity, a lot of nudity. And then day three it was like, ‘Yeah, a lot of nudity.’ And then two weeks into it, it was just like another day at the office.”</p>

<p>'Babylon' has at the time of writing received mostly positive reviews, though a large number of critics have also panned the film. On the review aggregation site Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a score of 64 per cent. The critical consensus reads, "Babylon's overwhelming muchness is exhausting, but much like the industry it honors, its well-acted, well-crafted glitz and glamour can often be an effective distraction."</p>

<p>The official synopsis reads, "From Damien Chazelle, Babylon is an original epic set in 1920s Los Angeles led by Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, and Diego Calva, with an ensemble cast including Jovan Adepo, Li Jun Li, and Jean Smart. A tale of outsized ambition and outrageous excess, it traces the rise and fall of multiple characters during an era of unbridled decadence and depravity in early Hollywood."&nbsp;</p>

'A lot of nudity': 'Babylon' star Brad Pitt teases debauched party scene from the film

<p>Kate Winslet, who can currently be seen as Ronal in <strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-avatar-the-way-of-water-movie-review-visually-gorgeous-james-camerons-film-repeats-originals-mistakes-543654">'Avatar: The Way of Water'</a></strong>, has opened up about the fat-shaming she was subjected to particularly in regards to the controversial scene that comes at the end of James Cameron's 'Titanic'. Yes, the famous (or infamous, depending on who you ask) scene when both Rose (Winslet) and her beau Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio) try to climb onto a wooden door but it refuses to be buoyant enough for both. Thus, Jack dies of cold, but before that he makes sure Rose survives. Winslet said in a recent interview that she was called fat and people said this is why both could not stay afloat.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Apparently I was too fat," Winslet bluntly said while speaking on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast. She added, “They were so mean. I wasn’t even f****ing fat. If I could turn back the clock, I would have used my voice in a completely different way. … I would have said to journalists, I would have responded, I would have said, ‘Don’t you dare treat me like this. I’m a young woman, my body is changing, I’m figuring it out, I’m deeply insecure, I’m terrified, don’t make this any harder than it already is.’ That’s bullying, you know, and actually borderline abusive, I would say.”&nbsp;</p>

<p>Winslet has been open about her fat-shaming during her early years in Hollywood. While speaking to UK's The Times earlier this year, she had revealed, "When I was younger, my agent would get calls saying, 'How’s her weight?' I kid you not." Even in acting school, she was told by a teacher she'd have to settle for 'fat girl' roles.</p>

<p>Joan Rivers had infamously joked, "If Kate Winslet had dropped a few pounds, the Titanic would never have sunk."</p>

<p>After rising to fame with James Cameron's 'Titanic', Winslet has been a part of several acclaimed projects in more than three decades of her career. She won an Oscar in the Best Actress category for her performance in 2008's 'The Reader'. She also has an Emmy, for her performance in HBO's acclaimed performance in 'Mare of Easttown'.</p>
