The sequel 'Godzilla x Kong: Supernova' begins production for 2027 release with new teaser
Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have officially announced the title and production start of the next chapter in the Monsterverse. The highly anticipated sequel to Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire will be titled Godzilla X Kong: Supernova. The film is set to hit theaters on March 26, 2027.
Along with the title reveal, the studio released a short teaser video that offers a glimpse into the world of the film. The teaser shows an office for Monarch, the mysterious organization that tracks the giant, destructive Titans. In the video, a computer displays a hotline number, (240) MON-ARCH (240-666-2724), that fans can call for an automated message. The message from Monarch states: 'Thank you for calling the Monarch Community Support Hotline, your global resource for Titan response and relief. Your help reporting Titan sightings plays a critical role in keeping our world safe.'
Supernova marks the sixth movie in the Monsterverse series, following the success of 2024's Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire. The human cast will see Dan Stevens reprise his role as Trapper, with new additions including Kaitlyn Dever, Jack O'Connell, Delroy Lindo, Matthew Modine, Alycia Debnam-Carey, and Sam Neill.
The teaser also subtly references past films in the franchise, including a callback to Godzilla: King of the Monsters, with a call originating from Sedona, Arizona, the location where the spider-legged monster Scylla was awakened. Additionally, the video includes fun Easter eggs, such as a Godzilla bobblehead and a mug with the phrase 'Keep Kong and Carry On.'

Final Destination: Bloodlines breaks franchise record with $43M opening weekend
Warner Bros. continues its dominance at the box office with Final Destination: Bloodlines opening at an impressive $43 million across 3,523 theaters, marking the best debut in franchise history. The film earned $20 million on Friday alone, including $5.5 million from Thursday previews, surpassing expectations and edging out previous entries in the Final Destination series. Directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, and written by Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor, Bloodlines boasts strong fan support with a 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. The film becomes the fourth No. 1 opener this year for Warner Bros, following Mickey 17, Minecraft, and Sinners. Speaking of Sinners, the vampire thriller remains resilient, earning $15 million in its fifth weekend, down just 32%. Its total domestic haul is projected to reach $240.3 million by Sunday, outperforming historical R-rated horror benchmarks like The Blair Witch Project. In second place is Disney/Marvel's Thunderbolts* with $16 million in its third weekend, bringing its cumulative total to $154.8 million. Meanwhile, Hurry Up Tomorrow, starring The Weeknd and Jenna Ortega, opens with a modest $3.3M–$4.7M after a weak $2.5M Friday and lukewarm audience response. Despite the soft opening, it coincides with The Weeknd's massive $400M tour and a new album drop. Rounding out the top five is A Minecraft Movie with a steady $5.6 million in its seventh weekend, pushing its total to $416.3 million. As horror continues to thrive, Warner Bros solidifies its box office dominance, with Bloodlines and Sinners leading a strong May lineup.

Michael B. Jordan's 'Sinners' surpasses $200M at domestic box office in fourth week
Sinners, directed by Ryan Coogler and starring Michael B. Jordan in dual roles, has crossed the $200 million domestic box office mark in its fourth weekend of release. The milestone was confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, with the film ending Friday at $199.8 million and surpassing the threshold over the weekend. Produced by Warner Bros., Sinners has become the second-highest-grossing domestic film of the year so far, trailing only A Minecraft Movie. With a production budget estimated at $90 million, the film has quickly established itself as a standout in the 2025 cinematic lineup. Starring Hailee Steinfeld and Jack O'Connell alongside Jordan, the film's popularity has led to the expansion of IMAX screenings. From 15 to 21 May, Sinners will return to selected 70mm IMAX theatres across major cities, including Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, and Toronto. Jeff Goldstein, Warner Bros. Pictures' president of global distribution, stated, 'If ever a film needed to be experienced in this incredible, larger-than-life format, it's Sinners.' Set in Mississippi in 1932, Sinners follows twin World War I veterans, Smoke and Stack—both portrayed by Jordan—who are targeted by vampires disguised as civilians. The story weaves horror, romance, and action with social commentary on racial tensions of the era. Critically acclaimed for its genre-defying narrative, Sinners holds a 97% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, a 96% audience rating, and an 8.1 rating on IMDb. It has also climbed to No. 20 on the list of the highest-grossing horror films of all time, according to The Numbers. Director Coogler remarked on his approach, saying he aimed to challenge genre conventions. 'I wanted to make a film that was kind of raging against the concept of genre,' he said.
