1990s icons Beavis and Butthead are coming back in a big way for a multi-season run including spin-offs and specials.

Beavis and Butthead reboot coming to Comedy Central for 2 seasons

What's old is new again, and nothing underlines this more than Comedy Central's new Beavis and Butthead reboot. The ViacomCBS-owned company has ordered two seasons alongside a plethora of other content, and Mike Judge is returning to authentically revamp the idiotic duo for a whole new generation. Judge will write, produce, and of course lend his voice to eponymous high schoolers.

The show will bring Beavis and Butthead to the modern Gen Z world and put them in today's world of technology, which has grown tremendously since the 1990s.

Anthony Garreffa | Jun 27, 2020 12:31 AM CDT

Bill & Ted Face the Music was originally due for August 13, 2020 -- but the time travel movie has had some experiences with time it seems, with MGM delaying Bill & Ted Face the Music two weeks until August 28, 2020 -- and it's because of Tenet.

Warner Bros. delayed the release of Christopher Nolan's new movie (again) by two weeks, with a new opening of August 12, 2020 -- the day before Bill & Ted Face the Music was meant to debut. This forced MGM to push their movie back two weeks until August 28, 2020.

Bill & Ted Face the Music will have the original stars of the two first cult classic movies, with Bill & Ted themselves in Keanu Reeves (star of The Matrix and John Wick franchies -- each with new movies coming out, both with Reeves in them once again) and Alex Winter.

Warner Bros. announced the news in the last 24 hours, which marks the second delay for Tenet. It was first meant to arrive on July 17, 2020 but then Tenet was pushed back two weeks until July 31. But now it has been delayed again, from July 31 to August 12 -- another 12 days.

A Warner Bros. spokesperson said in a statement: "Warner Bros. is committed to bringing 'Tenet' to audiences in theaters, on the big screen, when exhibitors are ready and public health officials say it's time. In this moment what we need to be is flexible, and we are not treating this as a traditional movie release. We are choosing to open the movie mid-week to allow audiences to discover the film in their own time, and we plan to play longer, over an extended play period far beyond the norm, to develop a very different yet successful release strategy".

Anthony Garreffa | Jun 26, 2020 10:43 PM CDT

The Boys was one of the best surprise TV shows of 2019, debuting on Amazon Prime Video and being the kinda anti-superhero and Bizarro versions of the Justice League and Avengers. Well, the first season was a huge hit (I loved it) and now season two is getting close to debuting.

Anthony Garreffa | Jun 24, 2020 11:09 PM CDT

In what should be one of the biggest releases on any platform in the world in 2021, we're ramping up into the release of Zack Snyder's Justice League which will stream exclusively on HBO Max in 2021.

Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice star Henry Cavill, was recently on Variety's Actors on Actors issue with Patrick Stewart. Stewart asked Cavill: "Okay, I've got a question for you. What can you tell me about the Snyder Cut?"

Cavill replied: "Oh the Snyder Cut, the famous-slash-infamous-slash-all-sorts-of-things Snyder Cut. I can't really tell you anything aside from the fact that all I know is that HBO Max will be releasing it, I believe, and it'll be Zack's final vision for the movie, and I don't know anything more than that".

There have been many attempts over the decades to get a Foundation series developed, but it never happened -- that is, until Apple stepped in. Apple announced the show back in 2018 but had to halt production because of COVID-19 restrictions earlier this year.

As for Foundation, it is an old series that started as 8 short stories that writer Isaac Asimov wrote that were in Astounding Magazine starting 1942 and 1950. The series was inspired in some ways by Edward Gibbons' History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.

Jak Connor | Jun 23, 2020 5:32 AM CDT

The coronavirus outbreak caused many TV shows to halt filming due to social distancing guidelines and overall safety requirements.

Netflix's The Witcher Season 2 will begin filming mid August

One of the TV shows that was hit by the coronavirus was Netflix's The Witcher. The Witcher Season 2 filming was postponed due to the pandemic, but recently we heard teasers that filming was to begin sooner than expected. Now, a new post from the official Twitter account of The Witcher has revealed when the cast of the show is will get back together and begin production on the second season of the show.

The Twitter post, which can be found above, comes in the form of a short poem that reveals "The Witcher and his bard - who's flawless will reunite on set 17th of August". Since filming for the second season of the show has begun much faster than initially expected, it could be assumed that Netflix will hit its release date of 2021 for the second season.

It hasn't even been a month since Zack Snyder's Justice League was confirmed during Zack Snyder's own Man of Steel Watch Party -- yet here we are, with our first sneak peak at what should be one of, if not the biggest release of 2021: Zack Snyder's Justice League.

Luthor says the bell has been rung, and "The bell's already been rung and they've heard it, out in the dark among the stars. Ding-dong. The God is dead".

Wonder Woman 1984 delayed from June 5 to August 14, now to October 2

Anthony Garreffa | Jun 13, 2020 8:58 PM CDT

Warner Bros. has delayed a bunch of their tent pole movies for this year, with Christopher Nolan's Tenet and The Matrix 4 both delayed -- and now Wonder Woman 1984, for the third time.

Wonder Woman 1984 delayed from June 5 to August 14, now to October 2

Wonder Woman 1984 along with Tenet and The Matrix 4, along with other big movies from competing movie studios, were delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Wonder Woman 1984 was already delayed from June 5 to August 14 over COVID-19, and now it has been delayed from August 14, to October 2, 2020.

Let's hope that Wonder Woman 1984 doesn't go through another delay, and I hope that we see absolutely beyond the best CGI effects ever. Normally these movies are rushing to get to the finish line and visual effects are the hardest to finish on time -- well, they've had months and months of time in post now, so we shouldn't get some of the cheap and nasty VFX that we saw in the original Wonder Woman (hopefully).
