Greg Alba and Roxy Striar break down the biggest news in film and television this week! We dive into the Fantastic Four (2025) test screening rumors and audience reactions for the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) movie that features Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards / Mister Fantastic (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm / Invisible Woman (The Crown, Mission: Impossible) Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm / Human Torch (Stranger Things, A Quiet Place: Day One) Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm / The Thing (The Bear, Andor) Ralph Ineson as Galactus (The Witch, The Green Knight)We also react to the Spider-Man: Brand New Day casting rumors and plot leaks, including a surprising Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) crossover. We speculate on whether Hulk will be an ally or threat, and discuss the rumored main villain Mr. Negative, a lesser-known but powerful adversary in Spider-Man lore. Then, we discuss Chris Hemsworth's emotional message about Thor that may hint at his final appearance in the MCU. Is he done after Avengers Doomsday or Thor 5? The Harry Potter HBO Max Series has officially cast its trio of leads, and the internet has opinions. We talk about the backlash, especially surrounding race-swapped characters, and reflect on what matters most: the performance or the look? Lastly, we tackle the viewership dip for The Last of Us Season 2, whether the two-year gap will hurt audience retention, and how fans are reacting to the confirmed casting of Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, the evolving journey of Bella Ramsey as Ellie, and the emotional fallout of saying goodbye to Joel (Pedro Pascal).
