Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors
Whatever kind of supernova it is, it probably has nothing to do with champagne. If you're confused, don't worry, we're talking about the title of the next MonsterVerse film that was just announced: "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova". Warner Bros. and Legendary revealed the title along with a teaser video letting fans know that "Supernova" is in production. You can watch the teaser below.

Sadly, we don't get to see any of the MonsterVerse's massive Titans in the teaser. Instead, the video is confined to a busy control room that's probably about to get a lot busier. The camera tightens on an unattended workspace where the monitor soon begins warning of a "severe" Emergency Alert that we're going to guess has something to do with giant monsters bursting out of the ocean, the ground, or both.

Precise details about the plot of "Godzilla x Kong: Supernova" are still sparse. We can safely assume it involves the titular Titans working together once again to defeat a malevolent world-ending threat.
The last feature in the MonsterVerse saga was last year's "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire", which took in roughly $572 million at the global box office. The film also introduced Dan Stevens as Trapper, who will be returning for "Supernova".
This time around, the cast will also be getting an injection from another franchise about big monsters; Sam Neill - best known as Dr. Alan Grant in the "Jurassic Park" films - will join the cast. Kaitlyn Dever of "The Last of Us" fame will also star as well as Jack O'Connell, who will play Kaitlyn's brother.
But the true stars of the MonsterVerse films are the monsters. While certain stars like Dan Stevens have appeared in more than one of the features, one of the advantages the MonsterVerse has over cinematic narratives like the MCU is that they don't have to worry quite so much about bringing back the same actors. At the end of the day, the real stars are Godzilla, Kong, and the monsters like them.
"Godzilla x Kong: Supernova" is scheduled to hit theaters March 29, 2027. The film is directed by Grant Sputore from a script by David Callaham and Michael Lloyd Green. The feature stars Kaitlyn Dever, Dan Stevens, Jack O'Connell, Matthew Modine, Delroy Lindo, Alycia Debnam-Carey, and Sam Neill.

Will Season 5 of 'Hacks' Be the Last? originally appeared on Parade. Hacks is officially coming back, but it's yet to be confirmed if it will be the show's curtain call. Max has renewed the Emmy-winning comedy for a fifth season, continuing the story of legendary comedian Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) and her relationship with young comedy writer Ava (Hannah Einbinder). While most seasons have seen the dynamic duo at odds, the pair found themselves on the same page by the end of Season 4. While an official premiere date hasn't been announced, Hacks has consistently returned each spring, with previous seasons debuting in April or May. Season 5 is expected to follow that pattern and arrive in spring 2026.
