Predator Killer of Killers expands franchise with time-traveling animated carnage
Dan Trachtenberg, known for Prey, returns to the Predator franchise with Killer of Killers, a blood-soaked animated anthology spanning centuries. Directed by Trachtenberg and Joshua Wassung, and written by Micho Robert Rutare, the R-rated film unfolds across three time periods, blending stylized action with heavy doses of gore. Part of a growing trend to animate mature franchises, Killer of Killers joins the ranks of The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, Netflix's Terminator Zero, and Disney's Star Wars: Visions. These projects aim to captivate adult audiences with bold storytelling and graphic visual styles. This latest Predator installment leans into the violence while using animation to stylize its brutality, making the carnage palatable while still intense. The first chapter introduces Ursa (Lindsay LaVanchy), a 9th-century Viking warrior haunted by trauma. When a Predator arrives, she shifts from vengeance to survival, protecting her son Anders (Damien Haas) in a battle of brawn and cunning. The second story, set in 17th-century Japan, follows two estranged samurai brothers whose long-standing feud is interrupted by a new enemy—one that forces them to put their blades and grievances to use together. Here, green Predator blood and elegant choreography heighten the tension. The final section brings viewers to World War II, where Torres (Rick Gonzalez), a Latino mechanic with pilot dreams, takes flight in a thrilling aerial showdown after a Predator wipes out his squadron. The trio ultimately joins forces for a gladiator-style final act, blending weapons and strategies from their respective eras. As with Prey, Trachtenberg's latest effort emphasizes gender and racial diversity while pushing genre boundaries.

Miley Cyrus reveals why she took relaxed approach to promoting ‘Endless Summer Vacation'
During a recent appearance on The Tonight Show, Miley Cyrus explained her unconventional strategy for promoting her 2023 album Endless Summer Vacation. Rather than following traditional marketing methods, she opted for a relaxed approach that aligned with the album's laid-back theme. 'I cleverly titled my last album Endless Summer Vacation so then I could be on vacation and that could be part of my aesthetic,' Cyrus told host Jimmy Fallon. 'So all I had to do was take pictures of me in a bathing suit and be like, 'ESV!' and that was the promo.' Miley Cyrus talking about her fans commenting that she wasn't promoting her last album 😭 'I just cleverly titled my last album Endless Summer Vacation so then I could be on vacation and it would look like that was a part of my aesthetic.' — Miley Edition (@MileyEdition) June 5, 2025 She added that some fans were confused by the lack of traditional marketing efforts. 'All my fans were like, 'You're not promoting this album!' I was like, 'I'm making the next one, people!'' Despite the low-key rollout, Endless Summer Vacation became one of Cyrus's most well-received projects. The album featured the Grammy-winning hit 'Flowers' and was accompanied by a Disney+ special, Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions), showcasing her performances in an intimate setting. Now moving on from the ESV era, Cyrus has launched her latest project, Something Beautiful, released on May 30. The album marks her first visual LP and has already earned critical acclaim. Industry forecasts predict a strong debut on the charts, with Something Beautiful expected to land at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. If it does, it will become her highest-charting album since 2020's Plastic Hearts.

Ryan Coogler addresses future of Sinners after massive box office success
Director Ryan Coogler has confirmed that he will not create a sequel to Sinners, his critically acclaimed vampire thriller that has been a box office success in 2025. Despite its popularity and financial performance, Coogler emphasized that he always intended Sinners to be a standalone film. The supernatural drama starred Michael B. Jordan in a dual role as vampire twins and was praised for its original storytelling and genre-bending direction. It became the only original title to break into the top 10 highest-grossing films of the year, solidifying its impact without needing franchise backing. In a recent interview with Ebony, Coogler explained his decision: 'I've been in a space of making franchise films for a bit, so I wanted to get away from that… I was looking forward to delivering something original and personal.' He added that he wanted Sinners to feel like 'a full meal'—complete and self-contained, with no cliffhangers or need for continuation. Coogler's directorial journey began with Fruitvale Station in 2013, followed by major successes like Creed, Black Panther, and Wakanda Forever. While those films expanded into franchises, Sinners represents a return to his indie roots and creative freedom. Looking ahead, Coogler is working on Wrong Answer, another collaboration with Jordan, and the Disney+ spinoff series Eyes of Wakanda. He's also expected to return for Black Panther 3, according to The Hollywood Reporter. For now, Sinners continues to draw audiences in theaters—with no sequel planned, just as Coogler envisioned.
