Marvel Studios updates fans on Agatha All Along series
Marvel fans hoping for a second season of Agatha All Along will be disappointed, as showrunner Jac Schaeffer has confirmed that the series will remain a one-off.
Patti LuPone, who starred in the Disney+ series, revealed the news during an interview on Andy Cohen Live.
'There won't be one,' LuPone shared, recounting a conversation with Schaeffer. 'Jac came into my trailer and said, 'Patti, I'm just here to tell you that Lilia's going to die,' and I went, 'But I wanted a second season.' [Schaffer] said, 'I don't do second seasons.' She added, 'They wanted me to do a second season of WandaVision, and I didn't.''
Schaeffer, known for her work on WandaVision and Agatha All Along, has stated that the demands of writing a second season do not align with her creative process. Instead, she prefers crafting standalone stories.
The show, a spin-off from WandaVision, explored the life of Agatha Harkness, played by Kathryn Hahn, as she brought together a coven of witches. While the series connected to WandaVision, it stood as its own story rather than a continuation.
As Marvel Studios moves toward a multiverse-focused storyline with projects like Secret Wars and Captain America: Brave New World, the magical elements introduced in Agatha All Along may resurface in future MCU installments.
Fans of Agatha Harkness and the witches will have to wait and see how their stories unfold in Marvel's evolving cinematic universe.

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.

Ryan Gosling 'White Black Panther Meme' resurfaces amid Marvel Comics' new Ketema revelation
Marvel's recent unveiling of a white character as the new Black Panther has reignited the long-running meme featuring Ryan Gosling as the iconic hero. In the first issue of Marvel Knights: The World To Come (2025), a bold twist sees T'Challa's son, Ketema, taking on the mantle of Black Panther—only to reveal himself as a white man, much to the surprise of fans. This revelation has reignited debates surrounding the character's identity and spurred the meme, which humorously features Gosling in the role of the Wakandan king. Ketema's unmasking as a white young man has raised eyebrows, particularly because Black Panther, in both comic lore and on-screen portrayals (such as by Chadwick Boseman and Letitia Wright), has historically been a Black African character. The reveal, as part of the Marvel Knights series, follows a politically charged storyline set in the wake of T'Challa's death, where Ketema, a product of T'Challa's relationship with Monica Lynne, assumes the throne after defeating his father in a challenge. However, the mystery surrounding Ketema's true parentage has fueled speculation. Some fans question if he is indeed T'Challa's biological son or if another explanation—such as genetic engineering or alternate realities—might be at play. As the character of Ketema steps into a new role in Wakanda, the viral meme depicting Gosling as Black Panther has resurfaced, as fans joke about the possibility of the actor embodying the character on screen. While this meme has circulated for years, with Gosling often being humorously suggested for the role, the comic's plot twist has breathed new life into this online trend. The meme's return reflects the ongoing conversation about the boundaries of cultural identity, legacy, and representation in popular media, especially within the context of Marvel's bold narrative choices. It remains to be seen whether future Marvel Knights issues will provide more clarity about Ketema's origins and his role in Wakanda's future. The controversy and discussion sparked by this creative decision underscore Marvel's willingness to challenge conventions and explore new narratives.

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.'

'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.
