'Only Murders In The Building' S5 Trailer Just Dropped And It Hints At A Massive Plot Twist
The beloved doorman was killed off at the end of season four, and his death is thought to be connected to a prolific New York City mobster, who he was spotted with on the night of his death.
As per Hulu's logline, the premise is as follows: 'After Lester dies under suspicious circumstances, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel refuse to believe it was an accident. Their investigation plunges them into the shadowy corners of New York and beyond — where the trio uncovers a dangerous web of secrets connecting powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters, and the mysterious residents of the Arconia. The trio discovers a deeper divide between their storied city they thought they knew and the new New York evolving around them — one where the old mob fights to hold on as newer, even more dangerous players emerge.'
Returning alongside the trio is Michael Cyril Creighton (Howard), Meryl Streep (Loretta), Richard Kind (Vince), Nathan Lane (Teddy), Téa Leoni (Sofia), and Da'Vine Joy Randolph (Detective Donna). Besides the usual familiar faces, new season is set to boast a number of newcomers including Logan Lerman, Bobby Cannavale, Beanie Feldstein, Jermaine Fowler, Keegan-Michael Key, Christoph Waltz, Dianne Wiest, Renée Zellweger, as seen in the trailer.

What to Stream: Offset, John Cena, John Grisham and legal fights by Jussie Smollett and Amanda Knox
Migos rapper Offset releasing his third solo album and Samara Weaving playing a reformed getaway driver in the heist thriller 'Eenie Meanie' are some of the new television, films, music and games headed to a device near you. Also among the streaming offerings worth your time, as selected by The Associated Press' entertainment journalists: An adaptation of John Grisham's 'The Rainmaker' hits Peacock , John Cena stars as a flawed superhero in season 2 of 'The Peacemaker' and the Amanda Knox trial in Italy gets dramatized in a Hulu series. New movies to stream from Aug. 18-24 — Samara Weaving plays a reformed getaway driver who gets pulled back in to save a problematic ex-boyfriend in 'Eenie Meanie,' a new heist thriller streaming on Hulu on Friday, Aug. 22. Karl Glusman plays the pathetic ex in this intriguing ensemble that includes Steve Zahn, Andy Garcia, Randall Park and Marshawn Lynch. 'Deadpool' writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick produced the film, which is the directorial debut of writer-director Shawn Simmons. — Remember the strange Jussie Smollett saga that began back in January 2019 when the 'Empire' actor told police that two men assaulted him in an apparent hate crime which investigators began to believe was a hoax? It's the subject of a new Netflix documentary 'The Truth About Jussie Smollett?' streaming on Friday, Aug. 22. The ordeal stretched on for years and in November the Illinois Supreme Court overturned Smollett's conviction on charges of staging a racist and homophobic attack against himself in 2019 and lying to Chicago police. The trailer for the doc, which includes interviews with journalists, lawyers, investigators and law enforcement, teases a new sit-down interview with Smollett himself. — Swedish filmmaker Lasse Hallström takes audiences on a romantic journey through Europe with an American girl (Madelyn Cline) and a New Zealander (KJ Apa) in 'The Map That Leads to You,' streaming on Prime Video on Wednesday. It's based on the 2017 J.P. Monninger novel. — AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr New music to stream from Aug. 18-24 — On Friday, Migos rapper Offset will release his third solo album, 'Kiari.' The title is his legal name — a direct reflection of the album he described to The Associated Press earlier this month as 'a look in the mirror.' He said it's a collection of 'different versions of Offset, which comes from Kiari … I'm always trying to rebrand and recreate.' Start with 'Bodies,' a red-hot collaboration that marries Offset's melodic, aggressive flow and the dexterous lyricist JID atop a sample of nu-metal band Drowning Pool's 2001 cut 'Bodies.' It's become a 2025 Billboard Hot 100 hit for a reason. — Who would've thought, nearly 40 years after their formation, that the California shoegaze-y nu-metal band Deftones would become more popular than ever before? They've found new and nostalgic audiences online and have quickly become recognized as one of the most influential bands of the 2000s — 20 years after the fact. On Friday, they will release a new album 'Private Music.' And they sound as tight as ever. — AP Music Writer Maria Sherman New series to stream from Aug. 18-24 — The Amanda Knox trial gets dramatized in a Hulu series called 'The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox.' Knox is an executive producer on the project, as is Monica Lewinsky. Grace Van Patten stars as the study abroad student in Italy who finds herself in prison for murdering her housemate, Meredith Kercher. The case becomes a media sensation and Knox is called Foxy Knoxy — among other things — by the tabloids. The series also shares more of the story of Raffaele Sollecito, Knox's boyfriend at the time, who was also convicted of the murder. Both had their sentences thrown out by Italy's highest court in 2015. We also see Knox's difficulty adjusting to regular life after she returns to the States. The eight-episode series premieres Wednesday. — John Cena stars as a flawed superhero in Season 2 of 'The Peacemaker' arriving on HBO Max on Thursday. It's the first release of a DC Comics story after 'Superman ' flew into theaters earlier this summer. James Gunn, who is co-chairman and CEO of DC Studios, directed 'Superman' and is the showrunner of 'The Peacemaker.' — A new Prime Video docuseries called 'The Home Team: NY Jets' followed six Jets players and their partners for the 2024-2025 NFL season. We see the home life of these pros as they also juggle the demands of the sport. The filmmakers also made the documentary 'Kelce' about former Philadelphia Eagles player Jason Kelce in his 2022 season. It debuts Thursday. — An adaptation of John Grisham's 'The Rainmaker' hits Peacock on Friday, Aug. 22. The legal thriller is airing on the USA Network and the streamer drops each episode a week later. Milo Callaghan plays Rudy Baylor, who is fresh out of law school and about to start working at the largest law firm in the state. On his first day, Baylor gets fired so he takes a job at a small ambulance-chasing firm that works out of a former taco joint. Rudy's first big case pits him against the big, fancy law firm that let him go — and his girlfriend who still works there. — Alicia Rancilio New video games to play from Aug. 18-24 — You don't see many surfboards in video games — most virtual riders would rather pick up a skateboard or snowboard. The 'hoversword' at the heart of Sword of the Sea pushes back at that bias by combining all three. It throws in the ability to surf on sand, which is helpful given that your world is essentially one big desert. Your character, the Wraith, is exploring ancient ruins in search of long-lost artifacts. Master the right techniques and you get to surf on actual water. Publisher Giant Squid is led by Matt Nava, who was the art director on the 2012 indie classic Journey, and Sword of the Sea shares that game's meditative vibe. Hang 10 on Tuesday on PlayStation 5 or PC.

Dear Disney Stock Fans, Mark Your Calendar for August 21
Disney (DIS) is set to launch the long-awaited direct-to-consumer (DTC) service for ESPN on Thursday, Aug. 21. Sports are a key pillar of Disney's growth strategy, and the launch will be a key event that investors should watch closely. In this article, we'll look at Disney's outlook as it takes yet another step in its pivot toward streaming. ESPN has priced its DTC service, which CEO Bob Iger termed a 'sports fan's dream,' at $29.99 per month. The company is also offering ESPN as a bundle with Disney+ and Hulu at a promotional price of $29.99 per month for the first 12 months – a price Iger said is an 'incredible, incredible bargain for the consumer.' More News from Barchart UnitedHealth Stock Soars as Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Discloses $1.57B Stake Palantir CEO Alex Karp Sees More Gains Ahead With America-Focused Growth Strategy, Calls U.S. The 'Leader of the Free World' Lucid Motors Is Caught in a Tariff Trap. Is LCID Stock More Likely to Hit $1 or $7 in 2025? Our exclusive Barchart Brief newsletter is your FREE midday guide to what's moving stocks, sectors, and investor sentiment - delivered right when you need the info most. Subscribe today! The company has touted features such as increased personalization, integration of statistics, and a personalized sports center for the app. It will also include access to betting, fantasy sports, and commerce solutions, which will help the company add to its revenues. Disney Has a Diverse Portfolio of Media and Entertainment Assets Disney is a media and entertainment conglomerate with a diverse portfolio. It has the legacy linear TV business, which is in a structural, if not terminal, decline. Disney also has a movie production business, which holds some of the most popular intellectual property. The company has a streaming business, which has turned profitable. Then we have the Experiences segment that houses the theme parks and cruises, and is the proverbial cash cow for the company. Sports Are a Key Pillar of Disney's Strategy Sports have been a key growth area for Disney, and the company has taken several steps to make its offering even more attractive for users. These include: Partnering with Penn Entertainment (PENN) to launch the sports-gambling platform ESPN Bet. Sports betting is gaining traction and could be a key growth driver for ESPN in the coming years. Signing a deal with WWE for exclusive domestic rights to major WWE events starting in 2026. As part of the $1.6 billion agreement, Disney will stream all Premium Live Events (PLEs), including WrestleMania. Partnering with the NFL, giving the football league a 10% stake in ESPN. In return, ESPN will own and operate the NFL Network. It will also acquire some other media assets owned by the NFL, including the NFL's linear RedZone Channel and NFL Fantasy. ESPN has also launched a streaming bundle with FOX One priced at $39.99 per month. Why ESPN DTC Launch Is a Key Event for Disney The launch of ESPN's DTC service is a key event for Disney. While the company will need to pay a dividend to the NFL for its 10% stake in ESPN, Disney is confident that the launch will be accretive to its earnings in the first year after the close of the transaction. The company expects the NFL partnership to add to its revenues and operating profits and also lead to lower churn among its subscribers. Disney will be launching ESPN DTC ahead of key live sports events, including college football and NFL seasons. Live sports is a fast-growing market for broadcasters, and that's where the real value for ESPN DTC will lie. No wonder streaming companies like Alphabet's (GOOG) YouTube and Netflix (NFLX) are betting big on live sports. Disney Stock Forecast Disney has a consensus rating of 'Strong Buy' from the 28 analysts covering the stock, while its mean target price of $134.52 is 15.6% higher than the Aug. 14 closing price. I have been bullish on Disney stock for quite some time amid the transformation under Iger, in which the company's streaming business has turned profitable. For context, that business lost almost $1.5 billion in fiscal Q4 2022, which was the last full quarter under Iger's predecessor Bob Chapek. I remain bullish on Disney as the company progresses in its turnaround. The stock's valuations are also reasonable at a forward price-earnings (P/E) multiple of 19.83x. While the levels are not mouthwateringly cheap, I find them decent enough to add some more shares to my existing holdings. On the date of publication, Mohit Oberoi had a position in: DIS, NFLX, GOOG, PENN. All information and data in this article is solely for informational purposes.

All New Monsters & Creatures in Alien: Earth Listed
Alien: Earth has already added to the lore of the brilliant Alien franchise, which imagines vicious and deadly creatures living in the far reaches of space, by introducing a new set of monsters. Since the time of its inception, the Alien franchise has introduced some iconic creatures and monsters like the Xenomorph. Now, there are at least four more new creatures and monsters making their debut in Alien: Earth. List of new monsters in Alien: Earth Episodes 1 and 2 The first two episodes of Alien: Earth introduced several interesting things and were quite packed, too. Here are four new monsters that were revealed in the first two episodes of Alien: Earth. Blood Bugs The vicious Blood Bugs got the spotlight in the first episodes of Alien: Earth. The deadly insects seemingly got loose during the crash and then waited for the opportunity to strike. Highly intelligent, the bugs attacked two Prodigy search and rescue team members in the ship's ruined lab when they were alone. The bugs kill by burrowing into the men's bodies and reproducing, much like the Xenomorphs. The full range of abilities of these bugs is still unknown. The Eye Octopus The Eye Octopus is not the official name of the creature that appeared in the first two episodes, but the parasitic creature resembled an octopus with an eye for its body. Another intelligent being, this parasite is shown to be cunning and calculating. The parasite can rip its prey's eye out with its tentacles and place itself in its place. It can then control the host's body. The Flower Bud The Flower Bud was the first specimen that appeared in Alien: Earth. The bud hangs in a hallway after the crash and seems to be stalking people around. It also looks poisonous. There was not much revealed of this creature in the first two episodes, but it seems very evident that there is some kind of nightmare hiding in its folds. Perhaps it will open in future episodes and reveal something deadly? Cricket Bug The blink-and-miss appearance of the cricket bug in the opening moments of Alien: Earth was simply not enough to give a glimpse into its powers. But it was still among the samples that Maginots' crew gathered. It is also one that did not escape in the crash. Moreover, the show did not really delve into the powers of this bug, indicating that there could be a role for this bug ahead. The first two episodes of Alien: Earth are now streaming on Hulu.
