Chris Hemsworth clarifies viral ‘goodbye' video wasn't farewell to Thor ahead of 'Avengers: Doomsday'
Chris Hemsworth has responded to fan speculation that his viral 'thank you' video marked the end of his role as Thor in Avengers: Doomsday, insisting it was never intended to signal a departure. Hemsworth posted a video in May titled 'Thank You! The Legacy of Thor', in which he revisited his journey from early auditions through Endgame and Thor: Love and Thunder. The emotional tone led many to speculate that the character might meet his end in the upcoming film. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hemsworth said the clip was meant as gratitude to fans and clarified that it was 'certainly not the intent' to prompt concern. He explained the post was collaboratively created by his social media team and himself, intended only as a celebration of the character's legacy. Hemsworth added that after filming the video, he received feedback that he may have unintentionally caused confusion. 'We didn't do any damage control; there was no damage control necessary. But a lot was read into a little,' he said, and stressed that he is already embarking on 'another chapter' with Thor. Despite the speculation, Hemsworth's remarks reinforce that he is continuing in the role and that the video was never meant as a farewell. Fan theories had suggested a dramatic end for Thor, including a potential reunion with Loki and a grand finale inspired by the New Avengers (Vol. 3) #32 storyline. But Hemsworth's clarification suggests his exit is far from final.

Hamilton original live cast film to debut in cinemas starting September 5
Lin‑Manuel Miranda has confirmed that the filmed version of Hamilton, featuring the original Broadway cast, will be released in cinemas on September 5 2025 in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico. The announcement was made during his appearance on The Tonight Show. Miranda explained that the recording, captured live at the Richard Rodgers Theatre in June 2016, was initially intended for theatrical release. However, the project shifted to streaming during the pandemic and debuted on Disney+ in July 2020. Miranda said, 'So, Sept. 5, you will be able to see Hamilton in movie theatres nationwide.' In addition to the screening in North America, the film is set to open in the UK and Ireland on September 26 and in Australia and New Zealand on November 13. Tickets are now available for purchase. The theatrical version includes a new prologue, "Reuniting the Revolution", with interviews featuring the original cast and creators reflecting on the show's legacy. Director-producer Thomas Kail noted the intention to replicate 'the feeling of being in the Richard Rodgers Theatre' for cinema audiences. The cast includes Miranda as Alexander Hamilton, Leslie Odom Jr. as Aaron Burr, Daveed Diggs as Lafayette/Jefferson, Christopher Jackson as George Washington, Jonathan Groff as King George III, Renée Elise Goldsberry as Angelica Schuyler and Phillipa Soo as Eliza Hamilton. Miranda's interview coincides with the 10-year anniversary of Hamilton, which premiered in 2015 and went on to win 11 Tony Awards and a Pulitzer Prize. The film rights were reported to have sold for US $75 million, and the Disney+ version earned multiple Emmy wins. A special premiere screening will be held on September 3 at Central Park's Delacorte Theatre, with tickets available through a public donation and lottery system benefiting The Public Theater, where Hamilton originated. This theatrical release represents the next stage in the musical's global celebration and offers fans a chance to experience the original performance on the big screen.

Epic Games CEO criticises report on Disney mode delays in Fortnite as 'BS'
Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has strongly denied recent claims in The Wall Street Journal that Disney has delayed the development of Fortnite's upcoming Disney mode due to slow decision-making by the entertainment giant. The WSJ report suggested internal frustration within Epic over the pace of Disney sign-offs, stating the new mode would not launch until 'fall 2026 at the earliest.' Executives were said to be unhappy with delays caused by multiple layers of approval. Responding on social media, Sweeney labelled the anonymous remark as 'BS.' He wrote: 'The speed of Disney and Epic collaborations like Darth Vader has been awesome and is around 10x the ordinary speed of media company dealings in this business. We even provided a statement to the writer… but they chose not to print it.' The Disney collaboration was first revealed in February 2024. Details remain limited, although concept art has hinted at a virtual Disneyland-style environment featuring themed hubs. The specific gameplay elements of this mode remain undisclosed. The WSJ noted that Josh D'Amaro, head of Disney Parks and Resorts, is overseeing the project and has reportedly spent time with Sweeney during development. The article also raised concerns over legal ownership of fan-created content involving Disney characters, such as in-game dances. Epic's partnership with Disney has already resulted in extensive Fortnite content, including Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, and classic animation skins. One recent initiative tested an AI-powered Darth Vader character who could interact via generative speech, engaging with over 10 million players despite early moderation issues. Fortnite is entering its next season, featuring a mutated biome and guest appearances from Halo characters.
