Alfonso Cuarón’s Disclaimer hits Apple TV Plus October 11th.

A journalist discovers a novel in which she appears to be the main character and all of her dark secrets are laid bare. The first trailer for the Apple TV Plus series based on Renée Knight’s book doesn’t spell out what those secrets are, but hopefully it’s better than the last time Apple tried a similar concept.

Solar Opposites’ fifth season will rip ass, apparently.

It’s hard to believe that Solar Opposites has been running for four years, but Hulu’s new trailer for the show’s upcoming fifth season (due out August 12th) is a showcase of how far Korvo (Dan Steven) and Terry (Thomas Middleditch) have come.

Steve Buscemi is Starscream in Transformers One’s new trailer.

Though the new Transformers One trailer doesn’t feature nearly enough of Steve Buscemi’s Starscream, it does reveal quite a bit of the film’s general story — which might be a feature rather than a bug if you were on the fence about catching it in theaters on September 20th.

Jeff Goldblum is the father of all jealous and vengeful gods in Kaos’ new trailer.

We’ve all seen Jeff Goldblum lean into his quirkiness, but the menacing regality of his take on Zeus is what really jumps out in the first trailer for Netflix’s upcoming series Kaos due out August 29th.

A quip barrage.

If Deadpool & Wolverine isn’t enough to satiate your need for one-liners in a blockbuster movie, Borderlands is here for you. The latest trailer is full of even more Guardians of the Galaxy-style humor, much like the game it’s based on, and you can check it out in theaters on August 9th.

Close enough, welcome back SimAnt!

Inside me there are two video game wolves: one that loves to blow up ants, and one that loves to build their colonies. While the Earth Defense Force series satisfies one, the other has remained hungry until now. Launching November 7th, Empire of Ants is a new, hyper-realistic ant management simulator that has you finding food, fighting enemy insects and generally living your wildest A Bug’s Life fantasies.

Joker: Folie À Deux will have its musical day in court.

Joker: Folie à Deux’s first teaser didn’t feature nearly enough singing from either Joaquin Phoenix or Lady Gaga. But the film’s new trailer features a promising snippet of the clown prince humming a tune and seemingly starting a revolution as he makes his way to stand trial in Gotham.

Netflix refuses to let Rebel Moon go quietly.

Ahead of the debut of Rebel Moon — The Director’s Cut debuting this August, Netflix has whipped up a red band trailer that — compared to the film’s multi-hour runtime — feels like exactly the right amount of Zack Snyder you should consume in one sitting.

Deadpool & Wolverine’s final trailer adds Laura to the mix.

Dafne Keen’s performance as Laura in Logan was arguably the best thing about the film, and the character popping up in Deadpool & Wolverine’s latest trailer is probably a sign she’ll be sticking around in the MCU for a while.

An action game with foresight.

Forestrike comes from the same studio behind the excellent indie title Olija, and it allows players to plan out how they approach battle before ever throwing a punch. Unfortunately you’ll have to wait some time to play it — the game launches in 2025.

Facehuggers have never looked so terrifying.

The final trailer for Alien: Romulus is here, and it viscerally shows just how harrowing facehuggers really are as a concept. The new trailer urges you to check it out in IMAX by teasing some grisly close-ups that will be sure to really pop on a 50-foot high screen.

The Fede Alvarez-directed film opens August 16th.

Wanda Wilson? I haven’t heard that name in years...

Though there isn’t all that much new to see in Deadpool & Wolverine’s latest trailer, it features our best look yet at the film’s live-action takes on what seems to be the Deadpool Kid (a cowboy variant) and Lady Deadpool (a woman named Wanda with a sick-ass ponytail.)

The first TMNT: Mutant Mayhem game looks the part.

Based on the game’s first trailer, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants Unleashed developer AHeartfulofGames seems to have nailed the Mutant Mayhem visual style.

Disappointingly, Mutants Unleashed only supports two players. It’s out for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PCs on October 18th.

He’s a starboy.

You probably never heard of the Legend of Starfy series, but it’s not your fault — for some reason Nintendo never released the adorable aquatic platforming games outside of Japan. But now you can rectify that, as the first three GBA titles in the series are available for Switch Online subscribers.

Yawn.

I’ve been (lazily) waiting for Exhausted Man for some time, and now comes word that the game, where you can only move while lying down, will be launching on July 25th. Time to unleash my inner Gudetama.

Neon White goes green.

The demon hunting, speedrunning visual novel launches on Xbox today, after previously hitting Switch, Steam, and PlayStation (it’ll also be available to Game Pass subscribers). I promise that it is just as weird as that description makes it seem — but in a very good way.

The Umbrella Academy’s going out with one last apocalyptic bang.

There was some hope that The Umbrella Academy might switch up its formula and give the Hargreeves siblings a new kind of adventure for the show’s fourth and final season (out August 8th.)

But Netflix’s new trailer kinda makes it seem like they’ll be doing what they always do — averting an apocalypse of their own making.
