‘Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse' Hitting Theaters in June 2027
'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse,' the sequel to 2023's 'Across the Spider-Verse,' will hit theaters in the summer of 2027. Sony Pictures Entertainment as part of its CinemaCon presentation on Monday night announced that the film will hit theaters on June 4, 2027.
Producer Phil Lord joined the stage along with directors Bob Persichetti and Justin K. Thompson, and he explained that the film 'decided to break the boundaries of animation again with the epic conclusion of Miles Morales' story.' He also said that for the first time, it will be made specifically for large format screens, the first time Sony has done that on an animated film. Sony also showed a brief sizzle reel of some psychedelic and trippy footage.

'We needed to make sure we had the time to get it just right,' Lord said on the CinemaCon stage at Caesar's Colosseum in Las Vegas.
He said the film picks up literally the second where 'Across the Spider-Verse' left off on a cliffhanger, in which Miles Morales was a fugitive on the run from all the other Spider-Men across multiple universes and was the prisoner of his own self in a separate universe, who instead of becoming Spider-Man has now become the Prowler.
The last 'Spider-Verse' film, which was Oscar nominated after the original 'Into the Spider-Verse' film won the Best Animated Feature Oscar, grossed $690 million at the box office, and its follow-up was originally expected to open as early as 2024 as two halves of a single story, but after being undated for some time, audiences will have to wait even longer than expected.
Bob Persichetti was one of the co-directors on the original 'Into the Spider-Verse,' and Justin K. Thompson was a co-director on 'Across the Spider-Verse,' and the threequel brings the two of them together. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are producing the film.
Sony's presentation also included teasers for Danny Boyle's '28 Years Later,' which comes out this summer, and its follow-up '28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,' which comes out January 2026, as well as Darren Aronofsky's new film 'Caught Stealing' and the rebooted 'I Know What You Did Last Summer.'

IBEW Touts 'Landmark' New Tentative Agreement With CBS
The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, the largest union representing CBS employees, has reached a new tentative agreement with the network that it calls a 'landmark' deal with 'one of the most significant wage packages in the nearly 90-year history of the relationship.' 'This tentative agreement reflects a new era of partnership and progress that recognizes the important contributions of IBEW-represented technicians while embracing the challenges and opportunities of the future,' IBEW International President Kenneth W. Cooper said in a statement Tuesday.

We believe this agreement not only speaks to CBS's commitment to national and local broadcasting, it also reinforces the value of skilled union labor and reflects a shared vision for adapting to the fast-evolving media landscape,' Cooper's statement continued. Specific details of the deal have not been disclosed, given that members still need to vote to ratify it. In addition to wage increases, the IBEW says the agreement establishes a framework for conversations between the union and CBS on artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies, particularly impacting broadcast. Added George Cheeks, Co-CEO, Paramount Global and President & CEO of CBS: 'The skilled technicians and valued employees represented by IBEW have been a bedrock of CBS's success since the early days of television, and that continues as we chart our future together. I want to thank IBEW leaders Kenneth Cooper and Robert Prunn for setting the tone in a collaborative, forward-looking negotiation that worked through issues together and delivered value for all our stakeholders.'

Joanne Gilbert, ‘The Great Man' and ‘High Cost of Loving' Actress, Dies at 92
Joanne Gilbert, the actress and singer who performed in the hottest nightclubs of her era and appeared alongside José Ferrer in the films The Great Man and The High Cost of Loving, died April 16 in Los Angeles. She was 92. Her father was Ray Gilbert, who won an Oscar for writing the lyrics to 'Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah' from Disney's Song of the South (1946). More from The Hollywood Reporter Renée Victor, Voice of Abuelita in 'Coco,' Dies at 86 Devin Harjes, 'Boardwalk Empire,' 'Daredevil' and 'Gotham' Actor, Dies at 41 Alan Alda, Mike Farrell Among Those Paying Tribute to Loretta Swit: "A Supremely Talented Actor" After signing a seven-year contract with Paramount in 1952, Gilbert was 'introduced' to filmgoers in the splashy George Marshall-directed Western musical Red Garters (1954), starring Rosemary Clooney, Guy Mitchell, Jack Carson and Gene Barry. In the Universal drama The Great Man (1956), Gilbert portrayed the secretary of Ferrer's Joe Harris, a character loosely based on TV-radio host Arthur Godfrey. And in the MGM comedy The High Cost of Loving (1958), she was a friend of the couple played by Ferrer and, making her movie debut, Gena Rowlands. Ferrer directed both films as well. Born in Chicago on July 17, 1932, Joanne Beverly Gilbert and her family came to Hollywood in 1939. Her dad worked for producer Earl Carroll before he joined the Disney songwriting staff, and he went on to write lyrics for such notable songs as 'Casey at the Bat' and the Andy Williams classic 'And Roses and Roses.' After pursuing a career as a fashion model in New York City, Joanne Gilbert attracted attention as a singer at a famed Hollywood hotstop — her dad helped her with her act — leading to her deal at Paramount. 'The Mocambo had one week that wasn't filled, so they decided to let me make my nightclub debut with them,' she said in 1953. 'I was rehearsing with the orchestra when Mr. Morrison, the owner of the nightclub, said he didn't like my costume. 'I was wearing black sequin slacks and a white blouse because it was easy to dance in. But a few hours before I was to go on, they took the scissors and whacked my trousers until they became very short shorts. … it was something different and caused quite a bit of comment.' After making her film debut in Houdini (1953), she sang 'This is Greater Than I Thought' in Red Garters, where her Sheila Winthrop gets involved with a Mexican bandit played by Barry. Three years later, she reunited with Clooney as a guest on the singer's syndicated variety show. Her résumé included the features Good Morning, Miss Dove (1955) and Ride Out for Revenge (1957) and guest spots on The Ford Television Theatre, Bronco, Perry Mason, Follow the Sun, The Outer Limits and Ben Casey. She also headlined at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York and on stages in Las Vegas. Gilbert was married to TV writer and future Barney Miller creator Danny Arnold from June 1955 until their divorce in August 1956 and to producer and TV-production company executive Edward L. Rissien from 1958 until their 1964 divorce. Her father was married to Silk Stockings and Pajama Game star Janis Paige from 1962 until his 1976 death.

Don Rickles almost mutinied against Martin Scorsese during ‘Casino': ‘You don't have to take this from him!'
Comedy legend Don Rickles got fed up with Martin Scorsese during filming of 'Casino' 30 years ago, the Oscar-winning director revealed. Before a Tribeca Film Festival screening Thursday at the Beacon Theatre celebrating the anniversary of 'Casino,' Scorsese and the film's star Robert De Niro remembered a night when things with Rickles — aka Mr. Warmth — got particularly heated on set. 3 Martin Scorsese reminisced about working with Don Rickles during 'Casino.' Erik Pendzich/Shutterstock Advertisement 3 Rickles, who played Billy Sherbert, died in 2017. Getty Images 'We were in a very tough schedule, and we were all pretty tired,' Scorsese, 82, told the crowd of the Las Vegas night shoots that would start around 11 p.m. 'But by that point, Don couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't, because I was driving him crazy. I'm telling him, 'Don, I'll be ready in an hour. Two hours, three hours later, he was still waiting for us. He was dying. 'Get me out of here!'' Advertisement Scorsese added: 'He yelled at one point to the crew, 'You don't have to take this from him!'' Rickles played Billy Sherbert, the head of security for De Niro's Sam 'Ace' Rothstein. But the director and De Niro mostly shared fond memories of Rickles, who died in 2017. Born in Queens, the comic became a Vegas headliner with the help of friend Frank Sinatra and was eventually synonymous with Sin City. 'Don was really a sweet guy, everybody knew that,' De Niro, 81, said. 'And his style — he could be right on when he was acerbic and insulting, but, you know, deep down he was… a sweet guy.' Advertisement 3 Scorsese and Robert De Niro sat down with W. Kamau Bell during the Tribeca Film Festival. Getty Images for Tribeca Festival Scorsese went on to say that Rickles had a point. They were filming at difficult hours in a working casino that even advertised that the famous names were there. 'I was shocked because [the casino] had a kind of a ticker, you know, with a sign outside,' Scorsese said. 'It said, 'Come and watch the shooting: Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, Don Rickles — appearing now!' Advertisement Scorsese added: 'I go in, and my A.D., Joseph Reidy, he looked at me, and he said, 'Are you ready?' I said, 'Yes, yes. What's the problem?' He opened the door. A wall of sound.' 'About 10 o'clock at night. Everybody was playing, gambling, and you couldn't quite hear each other,' he said. 'But by around one in the morning, they quieted down.'
