Disney+
Disney’s investor’s day last week confirmed some of what we already knew. Loki is really happening, as is Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Scarlett Witch and Vision, Cassian Andor’s untitled series, among others. It is looking pretty slick. Also the price will be 6.99 monthly or $69 yearly. ALSO also, the SIMPSONS will find their way onto the app as well. Looks like not EVERYTHING from Fox will be headed to Hulu. AND The Mandalorian got a release date of Nov 12.

Deadline is reporting that Paramount Pictures is working on a new Mighty Mouse movie. The movie will reportedly be a live action/animation combination. Hopefully it will look better than Sonic…

Space Jam 2
Aside from the troubles the production is apparently having, THR is reporting that there are licensing issues that are ALSO holding back production. Seems Nike isn’t being as cooperative as they were in the past. Not all bad news though, THR is also reporting that Ryan Coogler is being brought in to write the next version of the script.

Avengers: Endgame
Major spoilers have leaked onto the interwebs. I won’t go over them here, but there is a link should you be so inclined. Much of the speculation has been confirmed, and fans, by and large, are doing the honorable thing and NOT reading the spoilers.
