According to one of the producers of Hobbs & Shaw – the spinoff of the Fast & Furious franchise – a sequel is still in the works. It stars Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham with talks of the sequel still in the planning stages. However, the date it finally goes into production will depend on the demanding schedules of its stars. Both actors currently have other projects underway.


The new trailer for Money Heist Part 5 Volume 1 has finally arrived. After a year of waiting, the final ten episodes will be available next month. Ahead of its release, Netflix has released the trailer for the first five instalments. It’s a clip that is super tense and for those that know the story, it opens with the gang having been trapped for over 100 hours after rescuing Lisbon. Netflix say that “what began as a robbery will end in war.”


The reboot of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air has been delayed again after another behind the scenes team member dropped out of the series. It was initially planned to be released this year, but hasn’t even started casting. It’s now expected to be available sometime next year. Will Smith will return but revealed it’s not even based on the TV show. It’s based on the theme song and instead of it being a comedy it’s being billed as a drama.
