88 days 'til Halloween: The Nightmare Before Christmas collection now at Disney

USA Today2 days ago
This is Halloween—time!
August is here, which means it's basically Halloween. Don't yell at me, I don't make the rules. Direct your anger at Starbucks, IHOP and all of the other brands with pumpkin-spice flavors launching this month. I'll just be over here, setting up my inflatable pumpkin. And if you need any more excuses to join in on the fun, fall festivities, Disney has released their Nightmare Before Christmas collection.
One of my favorite things about Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas is that it's a fan-favorite from Halloween straight through to Christmas. Who can argue with decor that carries you from August all the way to December? I'm personally a sucker for the Oogie Boogie mug and the cuddly Zero plushie, but the Halloween Town City Hall cookie jar is an adorable, yet functional piece to add to any kitchen.

WWE Strikes $1.6 Billion USD Deal With ESPN

Summary In a landmark agreement that reshapes the sports entertainment landscape,WWEhas finalized a multi-year deal withESPN, granting the Disney-owned company exclusive U.S. domestic streaming rights to all WWE Premium Live Events. The deal, valued at $1.6 billion USD over five years, marks a significant strategic victory for WWE and a pivotal move for ESPN's ambitious new streaming service. The agreement, which begins in 2026, will see all of WWE's marquee events—includingWrestleMania, SummerSlam, Royal Rumble and Survivor Series—move exclusively to ESPN's platforms in the U.S. This marks a major shift from WWE's current partnership with NBCUniversal's Peacock, which is set to expire in March 2026. This move aligns WWE's distribution model more closely with that of the UFC, which has seen immense success under the ESPN banner. For ESPN, the deal is a cornerstone of its new direct-to-consumer (DTC) streaming service, which is launching on August 21st at a price of $29.99 USD per month. WWE's 'immense, devoted and passionate fanbase' is a key draw, with ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro noting that the addition of WWE's biggest events will bolster their content portfolio and 'drive our streaming future.' The statement reads, 'WWE has an immense, devoted and passionate fan base that we're excited to super-serve on our new ESPN DTC platform. This agreement, which features the most significant WWE events of the year, bolsters our unprecedented content portfolio and helps drive our streaming future.' The deal not only grants ESPN the rights to the premium live events themselves but also the opportunity to stream pre- and post-show content, fully integrating WWE into its sports media ecosystem. Mark Shapiro, president and chief operating officer of TKO said, 'We are proud to reinforce the 'E' in ESPN at such an exciting juncture in its direct-to-consumer journey. WWE Premium Live Events are renowned for exactly the type of rich storytelling, incredible feats of athleticism and can't-miss, cultural tentpole experiences that have become synonymous with ESPN. Through our UFC relationship, we have experienced firsthand how transformational an ESPN presence can be, and we know this will be an exceptional partnership at a time of great innovation for both companies.' This partnership is part of a larger, aggressive push by ESPN to secure high-profile live event rights ahead of its new streaming service. The company recently finalized a deal with the NFL, which includes an equity stake for the league in exchange for media assets, and is reportedly in talks with Major League Baseball for a new rights package. The WWE deal, therefore, positions ESPN as a formidable force in the streaming wars, leveraging a wide range of live sports and entertainment to attract a diverse audience. While the deal is a massive financial success for WWE, it comes with a potential challenge for fans. The new ESPN streaming service will cost $29.99 USD per month, a significant increase from the $10.99 USD monthly price WWE fans currently pay for Peacock's unlimited plan. However, reports suggest that existing cable and satellite subscribers who receive ESPN as part of their package may be able to access the new WWE content at no additional cost through authentication. This development sets the stage for a new era of WWE viewing, where a single, dedicated platform becomes the exclusive home for all of the company's biggest events.

Projections: ‘Freakier Friday' To Flush ‘Fantastic Four' At Weekend Box Office

Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan's Freakier Friday is looking to end The Fantastic Four: First Steps' reign at the domestic box office this weekend. Disney and Marvel Studios' superhero tale debuted at No. 1 in its opening weekend with $115.6 million in North American ticket sales from July 25-27 and hung on to the top spot Aug. 1-3 despite a disastrous second weekend. Thanks to an anemic take of $38.6 million in its second frame, The Fantastic Four dropped a staggering 67% in business from its opening weekend. Now, this coming weekend, it appears that another Disney film, the family-friendly comedy Freakier Friday, will deliver the First Family of Superheroes a knockout punch. Freakier Friday is projected by Deadline to earn $30 million in its opening weekend domestically, while The Hollywood Reporter projects the film will open with about $28 million in ticket sales. Casting a much wider net, however, is Box Office Pro, which is projecting Freakier Friday will make $35 million to $45 million in its opening weekend. 'Weapons' Is Also Taking Aim At 'The Fantastic Four' Freakier Friday — the sequel to the 2003 hit Freaky Friday also starring Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan — isn't the only newcomer to the domestic box office this weekend. Warner Bros. horror thriller Weapons, starring Julia Garner and Josh Brolin, is projected by Box Office Pro to earn $25 million to $35 million domestically, which is more in line with Deadline and THR's projections for the film at $30 million and $25 million, respectively. So, where does that leave The Fantastic Four First Steps? Box Office Pro is projecting a $15 million to $20 million third-weekend take for the film, and clearly, their projections for its competitors are loftier than Deadline and THR. The latter two, in fact, didn't even mention The Fantastic Four in its conversation as to where it will end up financially in its third frame. No matter where The Fantastic Four ends up by Sunday, exectives at Disney and Marvel will no doubt be doing some soul searching — if they haven't already been — about how the film that was so adored by critics and big with audiences in its opening weekend fell so far so fast. One thing's for certain: Marvel Studios will be navigating some shaky ground in the coming year and a half trying to figure out how to get the Marvel Cinematic Universe back on course after its third box office disappointment of 2025. After all, Fantastic Four is the film meant to set up the return of Robert Downey Jr. to the MCU with Avengers: Doomsday, which is currently scheduled for a Dec. 18, 2026, release.

Fantastic Four 2 Update Reveals Likely Director for MCU Sequel

A new report from Jeff Sneider of The InSneider suggests that Disney has likely already found the director for The Fantastic Four 2, and has high hopes for the sequel. Who is potentially directing The Fantastic Four 2? According to Sneider, Matt Shakman — the director of the first film and the MCU miniseries WandaVision — is 'likely' to return to direct a sequel. As for the film's box office, Sneider mentions that, although the film hasn't been performed incredibly, Marvel execs believe the sequel will perform better after The Fantastic Four are shown off more in the next two Avengers movies, Avengers: Doomsday and Avenges: Secret Wars. Sneider's report comes after Disney CEO Bob Iger also praised The Fantastic Four: First Steps, saying the movie 'successfully launched' an important franchise into the MCU, even if it didn't make the same amount of money a project like Avengers might. In its second weekend, The Fantastic Four: First Steps took a 66% drop, a surprisingly high mark for a film that is praised by both critics and audiences. Following its latest drop, it's likely First Steps will come in under Superman, the DCU film that launched a week prior. 'Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel's First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing as they face their most daunting challenge yet,' the official synopsis for the movie reads. Kevin Feige serves as a producer on the project, while executive producers include Louis D'Esposito, Grant Curtis, and Tim Lewis. Mitch Bell is a co-producer, while the music comes from Michael Giacchino. The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be released in United States theaters on July 25, 2025. It has been confirmed that Pascal, Kirby, Quinn, and Moss-Bachrach will all return for Avengers: Doomsday, which arrives in December 2026. The Fantastic Four: First Steps is available in theaters now. Solve the daily Crossword
