There are reports that The Batman: Part II could run for around three-and-a-half hours. The rumoured runtime has not been confirmed by director Matt Reeves, DC or Warner Bros. If accurate, it would be more than half an hour longer than the 2022 original, and would make it one of the longest superhero movies ever released.
Two major names from the 80s are making a comeback with new music. Pet Shop Boys will release their new album A Man From The Future on October 9th, inspired by the life and legacy of computer pioneer Alan Turing. Meanwhile, Erasure have announced their 20th studio album, Radio!! Radio!!, which is due for release in March 2027.
Katy Perry is coming back to the region and will headline the New Year’s celebrations at Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai on December 31st. She is expected to perform hits including Firework, Roar and Hot ‘n’ Cold, before a midnight fireworks display welcomes 2027. Tickets aren’t cheap, though. The cheapest ones are going for the equivalent of 850 rials.
