Fast X Detonates a Literally Explosive New Featurette

You probably shouldn’t hold your breath for a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Jughead seems to be writing Archie comics again on Riverdale. There’s some kind of Wacky Races-type cartoon coming that isn’t Wacky Races. Spoilers gonna spoil, baby.

Deadpool 3

Appearing as a guest on the Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum podcast (via Deadline), Morena Baccarin stated she’d “like to think” she’ll return for Deadpool 3, but the upcoming sequel is “going to be much more about Wolverine and Deadpool” than Vanessa.

Yeah, what is up with Deadpool 3? That’s a really good question. I have to be very diplomatic about what I say here. I’d like to be in it. They have called me about being in it. Right now, we have not agreed on terms, and everybody’s trying their best, and doing their best. But it may or may not work out. I don’t know. I’d like to think so. I do think that this movie, since the acquirement of this Deadpool universe by Marvel/Disney, that merger that happened, I do feel like they’re trying to reinvent it a little bit. I think this movie is going to be much more about Wolverine and Deadpool.

Night Swim

Bloody-Disgusting reports the supernatural horror movie Night Swim, about “the hidden source of terror found in an iconic backyard swimming pool,” is now scheduled for a January 5, 2024 release date through Atomic Monster and Blumhouse. Wyatt Russell and Kerry Condon are attached to star.

Evil Dead Rise

DiscussingFilm has an enticing new poster for Evil Dead Rise.

Fast X

Meanwhile, a new behind-the-scenes featurette discusses Jason Momoa’s villainous character in Fast X. “All right, dorks, what are we blowing up?” should definitely be the catchphrase of 2023.

Rally Road Racers

A slow loris (Jimmy O. Yang) teams with an impala (J.K. Simmons) for a Wacky Races-inspired rally down the Silk Road in the trailer for Rally Road Racers, co-starring Chloe Bennet, Lisa Lu, Sharon Horgan, Catherine Tate, and John Cleese.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

In conversation with Variety, Kathleen Kennedy confirmed a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi “is not an active development” at Disney+.

[A second season] is not an active development. But I never say never, because there’s always the possibility. That show was so well-received and [director] Deborah Chow did such a spectacular job. Ewan McGregor really wants to do another. Everybody’s all hands on deck with what we’re doing right now, as you can see by what we showed everybody [at Star Wars Celebration]. We’ll turn our attention to that again maybe down the road.
