One Piece, Naruto and Bleach creators celebrate Black Clover's 10th anniversary with tribute art

To mark the 10th anniversary of Yuki Tabata's Black Clover manga, renowned creators from the world of One Piece, Naruto and Bleach have contributed commemorative artwork featuring Tabata's characters. The first three pieces—by Eiichiro Oda (One Piece), Masashi Kishimoto (Naruto) and Tite Kubo (Bleach)—were unveiled ahead of the full presentation in Shonen Jump GIGA Summer 2025, due in Japan on August 12. Additional contributors include high-profile names such as Gege Akutami, Kenta Shinohara, Koyoharu Gotouge and Yusuke Murata. A special anniversary video showcasing this collection has also been released as part of the celebration. Black Clover first started in Weekly Shonen Jump in February 2015 before moving to Jump GIGA in December 2023. To date, the manga has published 36 volumes in Japan. Its anime adaptation aired from October 2017 to March 2021 over 170 episodes at studio Pierrot, under director Tatsuya Yoshihara, with the feature film Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King released in March 2023. The tribute art and video are part of a broader initiative to honour a decade of Black Clover storytelling by Tabata, whose work centres on young rivals Asta and Yuno, both born on the same day but with opposite magical abilities. A video celebrating these milestones accompanies the official art release, reinforcing the legacy and continued popularity of the franchise heading into its next chapter. Last month, a new Black Clover anime season was announced, and it has been confirmed that Crunchyroll will stream the new series. At the time of writing, further details about the upcoming season have yet to be released.

David Byrne and Hayley Williams to collaborate on new song for Netflix's ‘The Twits'

David Byrne and Hayley Williams are teaming up for an original song, 'Open the Door,' featured in Netflix's upcoming animated adaptation of Roald Dahl's The Twits, which is set to premiere on October 17. The collaboration marks another creative partnership between the Talking Heads frontman and the Paramore singer, who have previously covered each other's songs and are set to appear on Byrne's forthcoming album Who Is the Sky? 'Open the Door' will play during the end credits of The Twits, while Byrne has also written and produced three original songs for the film—'We're Not Like Ev'ryone Else,' 'Lullaby,' and 'The Problem Is You'—all performed by the cast. Speaking about the project, Byrne said he was drawn to the story's playful exploration of 'dreadful characters,' adding that he invited Williams to collaborate after her lyrical ideas were inspired by the story. Williams called the experience 'surreal' and expressed her enthusiasm for working on a film based on her favorite Roald Dahl book. Directed by Phil Johnston (Ralph Breaks the Internet), The Twits follows the titular characters—described as the 'meanest, smelliest, nastiest people on earth'—as they clash with a family of magical Muggle-Wumps and two brave children. The film's cast includes Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Ryan Lopez, Timothy Simons, Nicole Byer, Jason Mantzoukas, Alan Tudyk, Mark Proksch, and others. Johnny Vegas and Margo Martindale voice the Twits, alongside Emilia Clarke and Natalie Portman in undisclosed roles. Produced by Johnston, Maggie Malone, and Daisy May West, with animation by Jellyfish Pictures, the film is part of Netflix's multi-project deal involving Dahl's works. Previous adaptations include Matilda the Musical and Wes Anderson's The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.

Colleen Hoover's 'Regretting You' gears up for release amid 'It Ends With Us' drama

Following the theatrical success of It Ends With Us, fans are now wondering if Colleen Hoover's next adaptation, Regretting You, will follow with a Netflix release. The romantic drama, directed by Josh Boone and written by Susan McMartin, is set to hit cinemas soon under Paramount Pictures although a streaming release has not been announced yet. The film stars Allison Williams as Morgan and McKenna Grace as her daughter Clara. It centres on their strained relationship following the sudden death of Clara's father, Chris. The adaptation is described by Boone as 'a romantic drama, one that has levity and humour,' with a focus on staying true to the source material. The cast also includes Dave Franco as Jonah and Scott Eastwood. Yesterday Paramount Pictures unveiled the official poster for the film with the trailer set to release today. Since a streaming release remains uncertain, viewers fear legal controversies tied to Hoover's previous adaptation may further complicate prospects. Just four months after its theatrical release, It Ends With Us costars, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni were embroiled in a legal battle after Lively accused Baldoni of harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign. Baldoni denied the claims and countersued Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds for defamation however, his initial suit was dismissed. Despite the ongoing controversy, Hoover's popularity in Hollywood continues to rise, with more adaptations are on the way, including Reminders of Him and Verity. Regretting You comes out in theatres on October 24, 2025.
