Ahead of a theatrical release beginning August 9 and a Netflix debut on August 14, the first trailer and poster have now arrived.

The narrative of One Piece has frequently pointed out the fact that Shanks’ crew is the only Emperor crew in the series who do not possess any kind of Devil Fruit abilities. He has reached such great heights in the Pirate world only because of his Haki abilities. This is indeed an incredible feat, and no other crew has been able to do this.
Shanks in One Piece
However, there is a theory going online that states that Shanks might have a Devil Fruit, and it has been kept a secret from the One Piece fans. The fruit not only provides him with basic Devil Fruit powers but also helps him with his strongest Haki ability. This Haki ability is called Future Sight, and it is the advanced version of Observation Haki.
According to the theory, the Devil Fruit is called the Time-Time Fruit, and it was previously used by Kozuki Toki,...

Stellar Blade‘s primary enemies are the Naytiba, a set of grotesque creatures that, quite frankly, look absolutely terrifying. Without any context, it would be hard to connect that the protagonist Eve and the Naytiba both come from the same game.
If you’re curious about the inspiration behind them and some of the bosses of the game, Shift Up CEO Kim Hyung Tae and other members of the game’s creative team have spilled the beans on it.

Shaitaan Becomes Bollywood’s First Hit In 2024! ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Shaitaan, starring Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan, has finally achieved the much-awaited verdict at the Indian box office. Yes, you guess it right! The film has finally become a clean Hit, thus turning out to be the first film of Bollywood to enjoy the feat in 2024. The feat has been unleashed on the auspicious occasion of the Holi holiday, and here’s all you need to know.
Before the beginning of 2024, Hrithik Roshan’s Fighter was touted to be the first clean Hit for Bollywood of the year. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen as despite raking in a good collection, the film couldn’t fetch the status of clean success due to its exorbitant price tag. On the other hand, the Ajay Devgn and R Madhavan starrer has emerged as a dark horse.

Netflix has released the brand new trailer for Nyad. Nyad tells the remarkable true story of athlete Diana Nyad who, at the age of 60 and with the help of her best friend and coach, commits to achieving her life-long dream: a 110-mile open ocean swim from Cuba to Florida.
In their Telluride Film Festival review, Variety’s Peter Debruge says: “it’s the private glimpses of vulnerability that make “Nyad” so effective, along with the personal scenes between Diana and Bonnie — dramatized moments when no cameras were present in the real world. Audiences want to see Diana Nyad succeed, but the pleasure of the experience comes from watching actors become these characters. No matter how tricky such feats must have been to re-create, you get the impression that everyone involved was having a blast.”

Normally at the top of these Don’t-Miss Indies round-ups, we like to make a little joke that’s somewhat topical. But if you’ve been paying attention to what’s been going on in Hollywood for the past couple of months, you’ll know that the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes are no laughing matter (unless we’re talking about the writers’ signs.) In fact, right at press time not one but two of this months featured titles have been pushed, due to strike-related issues.

In 1973, the band Stealers Wheel released “Stuck in the Middle With You,” a song that many listeners have incorrectly attributed to Bob Dylan. Dylan had nothing to do with the song, but it’s unsurprising that people think it was his. The lyrics sound like Dylan could have written them, and the nasally vocals sound like his. In reality, “Stuck in the Middle With You” was a surprise hit that singer Gerry Rafferty wrote to parody Dylan.

Ed Ames, the veteran singer and actor who played Mingo in the television series Daniel Boone, has died. He was 95. According to Deadline, Ames passed away at his home in Los Angeles on Sunday, May 21. No cause of death was given. Born on July 9, 1927, in Malden, Massachusetts, Ames began his career singing with his brothers in the Ames Brothers quartet, who had success throughout the 1950s with hit songs such as “Rag Mop,” “It Only Hurts For a Little While,” “You, You, You,” and “The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane.” He would go on to record solo music in the 1960s after the quartet disbanded, having hits with tracks such as “My Cup Runneth Over,” “Time, Time,” “Try to Remember,” and “When the Snow Is on the Roses.” It was in the 1960s when Ames started to pursue a career in acting, with his first starring role coming in an...

Daniel Day-Lewis has long been called the greatest actor ever, but his talents deserve a far deeper consideration than that.
It's been almost six years since Daniel Day-Lewis retired from acting, and we still live in the shadow of his influence. The legendary actor, who turns 66 today, has the kind of reputation that 99% of his colleagues would kill for. After nearly 40 years on stage and screen, Day-Lewis earned the moniker of The Greatest Actor of All-Time from more than one publication. A Time cover story from 2012 declared him to be the "World's Greatest Actor" while a 2013 article in the Guardian said that he had "taken up residence in the Pantheon" of actorly genius alongside the likes of Laurence Olivier and Marlon Brando.
Choosing just one mere mortal to bear the weight of this honor is near impossible, but it is notable how often Day-Lewis's name comes up as a consensus pick of sorts.

Led Zeppelin will likely never regroup. Robert Plant started his lengthy and successful solo career soon after the band broke up. His solo songs did what Zep never could — win Grammy awards — and he’s not too keen on revisiting the past. Except for when Plant sang backup to Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider on Led Zeppelin’s “Rock and Roll” after tricking Snider into singing at a wedding.

Many musicians point to when they first heard a Bob Dylan song as an important moment in their development as songwriters. Dylan’s writing won him a Nobel Prize — his skill and influence are unquestionable. When Dylan was young, the artist that influenced him the most was Woody Guthrie. Dylan said that hearing Guthrie’s songs changed everything for him.
Bob Dylan | Brian Shuel/Redferns The musician’s friends helped him expand his musical tastes
Dylan briefly enrolled at the University of Minnesota after graduating from high school. His goal was to become a musician, even writing in his yearbook that he wanted to run off and join Little Richard, but he went to college to appease his parents. He joined a fraternity and sporadically attended class, but his true interests lay in the Minneapolis music scene.
He frequented the Ten O’Clock Scholar, where many of the city’s folk musicians gathered.

There's a fitting symmetry to actor Michael B. Jordan's move into the director's chair for "Creed III," where he will also be starring as Adonis Creed, the ascending son of Apollo (Carl Weathers) from the original "Rocky" franchise. "Rocky" star and writer Sylvester Stallone also went on to direct several films in the series, helming the second, third, and fourth "Rocky" movies before returning 20 years later to star in and direct 2006's "Rocky Balboa." In a surprise continuation of the franchise, director Ryan Coogler re-imagined the property's underdog story for a new generation with 2015's "Creed." In the film, Michael B. Jordan and Tessa Thompson became the new Rocky and Adrian (Adonis and Bianca), and Stallone returned as the Mickey character (an older Rocky), the scruffy mentor role originally occupied by Burgess Meredith.

“Pitch Perfect”s biggest personality Bumper Allen (Adam Devine) is taking his show on the road – and across international waters – in the new trailer for Peacock’s “Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin” series.
Picking up several years after the timeline of the trilogy of “Pitch Perfect” movies, “Bumper in Berlin” kicks off when Devine’s character receives word that he’s a viral sensation in Germany thanks to his singing TikToks. “Move to Berlin and work with me,” a fixture of the Berlin music scene named Peter (Flula Borg) tells him. “I can make you a star.”
Once he makes the move, Bumper realizes it won’t be that easy. As he prepares to make his grand debut at Unity Festival – described to him as “the Fourth of July meets the Super Bowl Half-Time Show” – he juggles performance anxiety, rival singers, and falling for his assistant (played by Sarah Hyland...

Exclusive: Deadline can reveal before Sunday’s world premiere of the David O. Russell-directed Amsterdam that the film’s final musical number “Time” was done with help from Drake and platinum recording artist Giveon.
Daniel Pemberton wrote the original score for the film, and he was also inspired to create a song based on his score’s melodic theme. Working with producer Matthew Budman, who believed the film’s empowering message about the bonds of friendship was perfectly suited for a song, they reached out to Budman’s business partner and the film’s executive producer, Drake. He turned to friend and collaborator Giveon to perform the song, which Drake and Jahaan Sweet wrote together and which Pemberton produced.

The result, “Time,” combines the original score’s main theme with Giveon’s rich, classic vocals, woodwind instrumentation, and a piano track by Sweet.

Tony Scott is one of the directors responsible for the modern blockbuster. In his time, critics widely dismissed him for combining rapid-fire editing with ultra-stylized visuals, which they said was the so-called “MTV aesthetic” (like that’s a bad thing). Ten years after his death, he’s considered one of the greatest action directors ever, with a widespread critical re-evaluation of his work in the wake of Top Gun: Maverick‘s success. Indeed, for those of us who loved him when he was alive, the fact that he’s great isn’t news, and in this episode of We Remember, we pay tribute to the man and his work.
Top Gun, True Romance, Crimson Tide, Man on Fire, The Last Boy Scout, the list goes on and on. Scott was a master at placing audience members inside his movies, permitting them to feel the heat of every moment. His passing...

The foundation of the #MeToo movement is at the center of true story “She Said,” based on the New York Times exposé outing Harvey Weinstein’s decades of sexual abuse and assault.
Oscar nominee Carey Mulligan and Emmy nominee Zoe Kazan star as New York Times journalists Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor, respectively, in the drama, in theaters November 18. Based on the real-life story of breaking the #MeToo scandal, “She Said” is adapted from bestselling memoir “She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement.” The film is described as not focusing on Harvey Weinstein or the scandal itself, but rather on the all-female group of journalists who faced intimidation and legal threats to publish a bombshell investigative report in October 2017.
“Together, we may be able to protect other people,” Mulligan as Twohey says in the trailer. Kazan as Kantor adds that women will only go on...

CBS’ coverage of the 56th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, which saw Luke Bryan named Entertainer of the Year during Sunday’s hybrid ceremony, drew a 0.8 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic and 6.08 million viewers in early Nielsen Live+Same Day numbers, marking the lowest-rated and least watched ACM Awards to date but still topping all of broadcast in the demo and drew larger audience than its network competitors combined.
The three-hour telecast hosted by Keith Urban and Mickey Guyton and spanning the Grand Ole Opry and Nashville locations from the Ryman to the Bluebird Cafe was off from last year’s 6.60 million viewers and 1.0 rating in comparable data; that show itself was down six tenths in the demo from 2019.
Along with the night’s most watched program 60 Minutes at 7 p.m., the ACM Awards helped CBS finish No. 1 among all broadcasters in both the demo and viewers.
