All new locations in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3
Image via Epic Games Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 just dropped, and the island has never looked more intense. The new season doesn't just bring Star Wars flair; it introduces four brand-new Points of Interest (POIs) that completely shake up the battlefield. Whether you're hunting epic loot or just want to drop into fresh chaos, here's a quick tour of every new location you need to check out. 1. First Order Base Set in the far northeast corner of the map, the First Order Base is where order (and blasters) reign. This heavily fortified POI replaces the former Demon's Dojo and features a full-scale TIE fighter hangar. What's special? A utility shaft offers sneaky entry for clever players, while the real prize here is Captain Phasma's Mythic blaster and her Medallion—if you can take her down. Fortnite Just Revealed The Season 3 Map (New Fortnite Star Wars Map) 2. Outpost Enclave Finally, the southeastern part of the map brings you to the Outpost Enclave, a dusty, rebellious hotspot replacing Hopeful Heights. It's home to smugglers, hidden stashes, and a massive Sandcrawler looming in the backdrop. Expect close-quarter battles and fast-paced action. If you love loot-heavy drop zones, this one's for you. 3. Resistance Base Head northwest, just beyond Flooded Frogs, and you'll find the Resistance Base—a sleek underground lair built for rebellion. Previously known as Whiffy Wharf, this POI is now your go-to spot for high-tech gear and X-wings waiting to be explored. It's quiet, deep, and perfect for gearing up before big fights. Plus, new weapons exclusive to this location are now part of the loot pool. The NEW FORTNITE STAR WARS Update! (Chapter 6 Season 3) 4. Vader Samurai's Solitude Journey to the southwestern edge of the island and you'll run into Vader Samurai's Solitude—a mashup of sci-fi and feudal Japan. This location replaces Shogun's Solitude and cranks the heat with Stormtrooper Samurai guards patrolling the area. Defeat them, and you'll face the Dark Lord himself—Darth Vader. Take him down, and his iconic lightsaber becomes yours. Final Thoughts Each new POI sits on a corner of the island—deliberately spread out to encourage map-wide exploration. From air hangars to desert outposts, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 blends Star Wars storytelling with core battle royale strategy. Whether you're hunting mythics or chasing the dub, these new locations are where the action truly begins.

Rings of Power Season 3: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on April 24, 2025, 20:08 IST Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has enthralled viewers with its stunning visuals and grand narrative set in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendary Middle-earth. After the gripping finale of Season 2, anticipation is high for Season 3. In this article, we explore potential release dates, expected cast members, and plot predictions for the upcoming instalment of this epic series. Speculated Release Date for Season 3 As of April 2025, Amazon has greenlit The Rings of Power Season 3, with pre-production underway and filming slated to start in spring 2025 at Shepperton Studios in the UK. While no official premiere date has been confirmed, the production schedules of prior seasons offer clues. Season 1 debuted in September 2022, and Season 2 followed in August 2024, each taking roughly two years from filming to release. Based on this pattern, Season 3 is likely to arrive in late summer or early fall 2026, possibly between August and October. Expected Cast for Season 3 Season 3 of The Rings of Power is poised to bring back key characters while introducing new ones. Although Amazon has yet to unveil a complete cast list, insights from Season 2's conclusion and recent updates provide a glimpse of who to expect: Returning Characters Morfydd Clark as Galadriel : The resolute Elven leader will continue her battle against Sauron, having narrowly escaped death in Season 2. Charlie Vickers as Sauron : Now armed with Fëanor's hammer, the Dark Lord will push forward his sinister plans, likely focusing on crafting the One Ring. Robert Aramayo as Elrond : With Eregion's fall, Elrond's leadership in establishing Rivendell will likely take center stage. Maxim Baldry as Isildur : Isildur's arc will deepen, intertwining with Númenor's fate and his pivotal role in Tolkien's mythology. Cynthia Addai-Robinson as Míriel : Númenor's Queen-Regent will navigate growing unrest, foreshadowing the island's tragic decline. Daniel Weyman as The Stranger (Gandalf): Revealed as Gandalf in Season 2, his mission to thwart Sauron and potentially confront the Dark Wizard will be crucial. Potential Plot for Season 3 Season 3 of The Rings of Power is set to raise the stakes, delving further into the Second Age of Middle-earth. Reports suggest the season may include a time jump of several years, positioning the story at the peak of the War of the Elves and Sauron. Showrunner Patrick McKay has hinted at a possible flashback sequence to open the season, which could shed light on Sauron's motivations or pivotal moments from Middle-earth's past.

Who will play Voldemort in the new Harry Potter TV Series? Here are 11 actors tipped to play the Dark Lord
It's now been nearly 14 years since the eighth and final part of the Harry Potter film series hit cinema screens – Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 was released in 2011. Could one of these actors be set to land the role of Lord Voldemort in the new Harry Potter television series? | Getty Images And it's a remarkable 24 years since the first film in the series was released, introducing the world to the then little-known acting trio of Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. Since then three parts of the ' Fantastic Beasts ' series, starring Eddie Redmayne , have been added to the Potterverse. But now fans of the boy wizard have something new to look forward to, with a Harry Potter television series in the works. Streaming service Max (formerly HBO Max) will be making it and last year had an open casting call for young actors from the UK and Ireland to play Harry, Ron and Hermione. It's expected that, as with the film series, the three main roles will be filled by currently unknown acting talent. And a number of the grown-up parts are now filled - with Nick Frost playing Rubeus Hagrid, John Lithgow cast as Aldus Dumbledore, Janet McTeer taking on the role of Minerva McGonagall, and Paapa Essiedu tackling Severus Snape. Some smaller parts are also taken, with Paul Whitehouse and Luke Thallon playing Argus Filch and Professor Quirinus respectively. But there are plenty more big parts up for grabs, including the Dark Lord himself - Lord Voldemort. Here are the 11 actors tipped to success Ralph Fiennes (including Ralph himself) according to 1 . Cillian Murphy - 1/2 The 1/2 hot favourite to play the Dark Lord is Cillian Murphy, who last year won a Best Actor Oscar for his performance in 'Oppenheimer'. He would certainly be a real coup for the casting team. | Getty Images Photo Sales 2 . Rhys Ifans - 7/4 Welsh star Rhys Ifans is the 7/4 second favourite to land the plum role. He's experienced in fantasy films, having appeareed in 'House of the Dragon', and is already part of the Potterverse, having played Xenophilius Lovegood in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1'. | Getty Images Photo Sales 3 . Christian Bale - 2/1 Another Oscar winner (he won for 'The Fighter') is third favourite - Christian Bale is priced at 2/1. He's shown he can play evil well as the fearsome Patrick Bateman in 'American Psycho'. | Getty Images, Photo Sales 4 . Matt Smith - 5/2 Former Doctor Who Matt Smith was fairly monstrous in 'Last Night In Soho'. He might fancy another role as a baddie, and is a 5/2 shot to play Lord Voldemort. | Getty Images Photo Sales
