‘Avengers: Doomsday' Set Pictures May Tease a Huge X-Men Threat
Night After Night
Deadline reports Josh Lobo (I Trapped the Devil) is attached to direct Night After Night, a 'sci-fi thriller' starring Johnny Sibilly, Alexis Louder, Trace Lysette, AJ Bowen, Scott Poythress, Horace Gold, Melissa Macedo, Michelle Macedo, and Jennifer Blair. The story concerns 'two overnight security guards at a private university whose grip on reality begins to unravel after the appearance of a mute figure who returns each night without explanation.'
Species
Meanwhile, Screen Daily reports Karin Viard, Mara Taquin, Kim Higelin, Sami Outalbali, Stefan Crepon and Sonia Faidi are attached to star in Species a French body horror film baring no relation to the 1995 film of the same title. Directed by Marion Le Corroller and eaturing special effects from Pierre-Olivier Persin (The Substance), the story concerns 'a young medical student working at an ER [who] witnesses a new virus spreading among young patients, a mysterious mutation among the new generation that starts affecting her.'
Victorian Psycho
According to Deadline, Maika Monroe has replaced Margaret Qualley in the lead role of Victorian Psycho.
Clayface
David Dastmalchian revealed to /Film he's actively campaigning to play Clayface in the new DCU project.
The thing that made me want to add it to my roster was honestly, first and foremost, the people involved. That's the most important thing to me. You're going to spend precious hours of your life, which is so short, with people making something? It's the people. And Paul and Chris [Weitz] are very special human beings. I am always looking for something that scares me, looking for something that's outside of the realm of what I've normally gotten the opportunity to do. Something that's going to take me to a new place where I can push myself.
I grew up obsessed with the work of artists like Lon Chaney, who transformed in both visual and energetic ways. And I love the idea of running into somebody and them saying, 'You remind me of the guy that kind of was like the person in The Thing, but that couldn't be you.' I dream of that. I dream of being truly transformative, and I'll just keep working at it for the rest of my life so I can be like Clayface. I want to be Clayface.

What Does Your European Vacation Destination Say About You?
I am not presently on a yacht, enjoying a Euro summer. This is funny, because everyone else seems to be on a goddamn yacht, enjoying their Euro summer: Dua Lipa, Kylie Jenner, Dakota Johnson, Charles LeClerc, that beauty micro-influencer I sat next to at a dinner party in SoHo once. She was dating my guy friend's college roommate and we talked about Sofia Coppola's collaboration with Augustinus Bader, which somehow led to us following each other on Instagram? Anyway, two weeks later they broke up, and we've never seen each other again. But she keeps posting pictures of herself on a unicorn pool toy somewhere in the Tyrrhenian with a totally new guy. Good for her. I'll spare you what I'm doing this summer instead (office, spotted lantern flies, hazes of existential dread in subway cars without air-conditioning), but I will say this: Every night, in my New York City apartment, I scroll through it all. Not just the boats, but the villas in St. Tropez; the beach clubs in Ibiza; the girls who treat Cartier Love bracelets like they're bangles from Claire's, but keep asking if anyone wants to sublet their Nolita apartment for three weeks in August. It's a strange feeling, being stuck in this uncanny vacation valley. Once you view one post of the Hôtel du Cap or Le Sirenuse or Scorpios, the algorithm keeps sending you more. Suddenly, a lifestyle very few people can afford begins to feel like a lifestyle that everyone has…except for you. And I think about how eerie it is that we're constantly bombarded with cyber versions of the sirent from Greek myth: beautiful, alluring, visions that, if you aren't careful, will lead you to ruin. But then I turn my brain off, throw on The Summer I Turned Pretty, and decide to be a little bitchy instead. Below, my musings on what your European summer vacation says about you. If you're offended, just remember…your credit card limit is likely triple mine. St. Tropez 'But babe, I want to go to Shellona. BLOND:ISH is playing,' your girlfriend* says as the tender approaches. 'I told you already,' you say back, exasperated. 'They couldn't do a 3:30 seating. So we're going to Cinquante Cinq.'

This past weekend, one of the largest tournaments in the world was competed; the 2025 English Open, featuring more than 2,200 players from across the globe.

DeHeart salvaged the bronze by topping Mauro Garcia, a teenaged Spaniard who beat both Richard Livornese and Jaylen Broderick in the earlier rounds of the knockouts. Women's Pro Singles Recap The APP's top female singles player Sofia Sewing, who's won four APP singles golds already this year, beat the top Croatian Domenika Turkovic 6,6 for the title. Semi-finalists were England's Katie Morris and Holland's Roos Van Rink, giving the podium quite the international flair.
