02.06.2025 • NETFLIX TUDUM 2025

On the night from Saturday to Sunday, Netflix hosted the major TUDUM live event, which was streamed simultaneously worldwide and in which the streaming service promoted its upcoming attractions with plenty of star power, show performances, and new teasers and trailers.

Sofia Carson hosted the show. Nothing was left to chance; there was no room for spontaneity, and everything was, as always, "amazing," and the host was totally "excited." The entire event, including the hysterically applauding fans, seemed superficial and somewhat antiseptic. The only one who conveyed a touch of authenticity with his likeable, calm manner was Guillermo del Toro.

However, here are the topics that caught our attention:

Rian Johnson's announcement of »Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery« definitely deserves a mention among the films. The presentation was supported by many stars, including Josh Brolin, Cailee Spaeny, Kerry Washington, Jeremy Renner, Glenn Close (in a clip), and Daniel Craig. This, too, was scripted, of course, but had a nice rhythm thanks to the repetition of the phrase "And that's where you are wrong!" with which each actor began their lines, followed by a classic crime-reveal flourish. Streaming starts on December 12, 2025.

Friends Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are finally back together in front of the camera in the thriller »The Rip«. The trailer is not yet available on YouTube. The release date is January 16, 2026. We're looking forward to the two stars' joint appearance.

We didn't like the trailer for »Happy Gilmore 2«. What's funny about Adam Sandler getting a golf ball in his balls? But never mind, no other genre is as dependent on personal taste as comedy. What's a knee-slapper for one person only makes others shrug their shoulders.
https://youtu.be/YKzRPFvky9Y

The aforementioned Guillermo del Toro, supported by Oscar Isaac and Mia Goth, presented the first trailer for »Frankenstein«, a film we're already very excited about and which Netflix will bring us in November.
https://youtu.be/x--N03NO130

In the series category, there was the trailer for the final season of »Squid Game«.
https://youtu.be/zgGTVaG2UiQ

Chopper makes his debut in season 2 of »One Piece« and introduced himself in a clip.
https://youtu.be/rT0r90co_EA

The premiere dates for season 5 of »Stranger Things« have been announced. Since it's the final season, Netflix is ​​spreading the show out a bit. The first block will air on November 27th. Block 2 will then begin on Boxing Day. The finale will air on January 1st, 2026.
https://youtu.be/QlYrNC_1Xmk

For »Wednesday«, the streaming service showed the first six minutes of the 2nd season, presented by Jenna Ortega and co. The finale of the show was rounded off with a performance by Lady Gaga, who makes a guest appearance in the series. »Wednesday« will also be released in two parts, on August 6th and September 3rd.

Which film or series are you most looking forward to?

02.06.2025 • PRODUCT OF THE MONTH JUNE 2025
The Japanese manufacturer Kotobukiya excites collectors worldwide with various series of statues and figures. We don't know about you, but we especially appreciate Koto for the great Bishoujo line. "Bishoujo" translates to "beautiful girl" and the series offers just that – in perfection! The characters are converted in particular by creative and loving poses that enchant even those who aren't into collectibles and nerd stuff.

Even then, the current Bishoujo release - Sadako - is very special, and that's why we decided to declare it as our 💥 Product of the Month 💥 June 2025. Sadako is the scary girl from the J-horror movie par excellence: »Ring« (based on the novel of the same name by Koji Suzuki and filmed in 1998 by director Hideo Nakata). If you know anything about Japanese horror movies, then you should almost certainly know this film. »Ring« is about an enchanted video cassette. Anyone who sees the disturbing content bites the dust after seven days, and Sadako takes great pleasure in crawling out of the TV with her long hair hanging down her face in order to realize this death curse.

When the film came out in 1998, it didn't take long for it to become well-known far beyond the horror community. Sadako's look draws on the motif of Yūrei, female vengeful spirits with white robes and long black hair, rooted in Japanese folklore. »Ring« impressively transports this image into the present. In the following years, inspired by the success of Sadako, a number of movies were released that robbed us of our sleep with scary and vengeful girls.

Kotobukiya is now celebrating this piece of horror history by including this character in the Bishoujo series. But don't worry, even a beautiful Sadako still is creepy enough. So in a way you get the best of both worlds ;).

If you like it even scarier, you can use the enclosed alternative face part, which shows her with a different eye. This gives Sadako a more aggressive and threatening touch. And if you want the scariest option, you can attach the optional hairpiece which covers Sadako's face completely!

The PVC statue shows Sadako in a seductive pose, hovering over a stack of video cassettes. Her unconscious telekinetic powers ensure that some tapes lift off the ground. The packaging also includes an unrolled VHS tape, which can be arranged as desired. This way, you can give your collectible a very individual look without much effort.

Kotobukiya is celebrating the 15th anniversary of the Bishoujo series with Sadako. We want to join the celebrations and therefore choose the epitome of J-Horror as the 💥 Product of the Month 💥 June 2025.
30.05.2025 • NEW MUSIC FRIDAY – OR THE MOST BRUTAL WAY TO COUNT TO 3
„Gotta catch 'em all“ – that's probably what metal's most kawaii band Babymetal was thinking as they continued collecting features like Pokémon. After collaborations with the likes of Judas Priest, Dragonforce, Electric Callboy, Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello, and Poppy, the Russian-American deathcore act Slaughter to Prevail – who became a meme band themselves with their track »Demolisher« – have now also been thrown into the J-pop meat grinder. The result, »Song 3«, is arguably the most brutal way to count to 3 AND the long-awaited sequel to Blur's »Song 2«.

Babymetal were formed in 2010 – the three original members were just between 10 and 12 years old – and emerged from Japan's idol pop scene, where careers typically end after junior high school. However, thanks to a rapidly growing hype at international anime conventions and rock festivals, and the strong personal fan connection within the global metal and fantasy communities – where musicians are far more than just interchangeable faces – the group was soon lifted out of the rigid idol system. This allowed Babymetal to continue as a stable lineup. Today, Suzuka Nakamoto (vocals) and Moa Kikuchi (shouts & dance) have spent 15 years together on stage, representing their »Fox God«. In 2023, Momoko Okazaki joined as the second shouter and dancer, completing the trio.

Watch the wild music video here – it has racked up over a million streams within just a few hours:

A very specific kind of cute, definitely niche – and absolutely a matter of taste! 🤘🦊😸
30.05.2025 • ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN
Today, we can finally travel back to the Lands Between, because »Elden Ring Nightreign«, the cooperative spin-off of »Elden Ring«, is celebrating its release. We are eager to see if this standalone adventure developed by FromSoftware is as captivating and thrilling as the previous game.

As a Nightfarer, you enter the epic »Elden Ring« universe, the transitory land Limveld to be exact, to hunt one of the Nightlords. Up to three players can participate in battles against dark creatures. If you join forces in the fight and skillfully combine your abilities, your team spirit will work to your advantage. Thus, »Elden Ring Nightreign« provides the ultimate co-op experience. In terms of atmosphere, even the trailer shows that the game is in no way inferior to its predecessor:
https://youtu.be/AWrXpJQBJF0

Incidentally, a few days ago, it was officially announced that there's an »Elden Ring« film in the making, so we are wondering what else we can expect from this franchise.

Are you ready to join this dark adventure as a Nightfarer? And what do you think about the film adaptation?
29.05.2025 • ABGESPACED - EPISODE 39

28.05.2025 • A NEW KARATE KID ...
With »Karate Kid: Legends«, we're getting the latest installment of the charming franchise starting tomorrow – a series that has thrilled audiences since the first crane kick in the '80s and likely inspired countless new sign-ups at dojos.

For the first time, the worlds of the cult classic »Karate Kid« (1984), the modern series continuation »Cobra Kai« (2018–2025), and the 2010 reboot starring Jackie Chan come together. Chan once again takes on the role of the eccentric kung fu master Mr. Han, impressively showing that even at 71, he's still got it when it comes to action. Together with Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), he forms a wise yet chaotic coaching duo. The two take on the withdrawn teenager Li Fong (Ben Wang) – a student with talent, trauma, and a rather large shadow he must overcome.

»Karate Kid: Legends« tells a new, standalone story, while staying deeply rooted in the mythos of the series: discipline, self-discovery, and the eternal struggle between inner strength and external pressure. Li isn't just fighting with his fists, but with grief, exclusion, and the question of whether one can truly find peace without fighting. Amid teenage romance, jealous and violent exes, an underground tournament, and pizza-parlor philosophy, a modern martial arts drama unfolds. One can expect that »Karate Kid: Legends« doesn't just bring new action, but also delivers a hefty dose of nostalgia and the necessary sprinkling of fan service – with extra cheese 🍕😆!

Early reviews are somewhat mixed. So it's up to you to see for yourself – in cinemas starting tomorrow 🥋!
27.05.2025 • S.P.A.C.E POSTCARD COLLECTION MAY 2025
May is once again all about »Star Wars« ⭐ - our May the Fourth deals, numerous amazing new announcements from a galaxy far, far away, and, last but not least, our big Star Wars episode of 🚀 ABGESPACED 🚀 (which you can look forward to very soon) leave no doubt about that. And of course, this also applies to our postcard, which our customers found in their packages this month 📦.

The hype surrounding »Andor« season 2 was huge for us, too, so it was a no-brainer that Cassian should be immortalized in our postcard collection. For this photo, Robert let his imagination run wild and sent the hero on an undercover mission as an ISB officer. He used Stormtroopers and K-2SO from Hasbro's Black Series, as well as a kitbash consisting of a Director Krennic figure and a Cassian head, which he staged in a diorama.

If you want to see more epic toy photos, be sure to check out Robert on Instagram 🤩:

26.05.2025 • SMALL UPDATE ON THE DELIVERY SITUATION

Therefore, we ask for your understanding that it may take 2-3 days longer than usual at the moment. We're doing our best to ship everything as quickly as possible!
23.05.2025 • WE NEED SOME … ACTION!
... If we're gonna make it like a true survivor - This line from David Hasselhoff's »True Survivor«, the title song of »Kung Fury«, couldn't be a more fitting intro to the story we're about to tell you.

Imagine the first 100 things that come to mind when you think of the 80s and early 90s, throw them into a blender, and make a smoothie out of it - that's pretty much the concept behind »Kung Fury«, a 30-minute Swedish short film that dropped on YouTube in May 2015 and hit 10 million views within just a few days.
Exactly ten years after its release, this film - and the bizarre story behind it - is back in the spotlight. But let's start at the beginning:

David Sandberg is a Swedish filmmaker who quit his job in advertising in 2012 to work on footage for an 80s-trash-inspired action comedy in his home studio. He invested ¤5,000 to produce a trailer for a crowdfunding campaign. It did so well that it reached its ¤200,000 goal within a week and ultimately raised over ¤630,000.
The entire film was shot on green screens, and due to the limited budget, the team, for example, had only one police costume for 30 extras - so one scene was simply shot 30 times.
When the film finally premiered, it became a viral hit. Its absurd story, weird setting, its look and feel, and of course the involvement of David Hasselhoff, sparked just the right kind of nostalgic feelings - somewhere between 80s buddy-cop movie and 90s toy commercials.
You can still check out this wild trip here and we absolutely recommend it!
https://youtu.be/bS5P_LAqiVg

It didn't take long for a classic beat 'em up game titled »Kung Fury: Street Rage« to be released. Exactly one year after the film, a sequel - or rather a soft remake - was announced. This time, several major producers and production companies got involved, leading to a significantly larger budget of $34 million and a clear goal: to make a full-length feature film.

What happened next reads like the script of a film itself: »Kung Fury 2« (or »Kung Fury: The Movie«, as it's officially called now) was set to be even bigger, wilder, and more absurd - with full-on Hollywood power! Michael Fassbender plays FBI agent Colt Magnum with a perfect mullet, alongside Alexandra Shipp, once again Jorma Taccone and David Hasselhoff, and none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger as the President of the United States – „out to kick some Nazi ass“.
Filming wrapped in 2019, the budget was secured, and the vibe? Even crazier than the original! Alongside returning director Sandberg (once again starring as the title hero), names like Seth Grahame-Smith and »Boy Kills World« writer Tyler Burton Smith added fuel to the fire. The project had all the ingredients to become the ultimate cult hit.
But then everything came to a halt. A murky financing deal with Chinese company Creasun led to chaos. Huge portions of the budget, especially for the complex VFX, never materialized, and so the film stalled. Since 2020, the production has been stuck in legal limbo. And even though post-production wrapped in 2024, there's still no official release date.

Just a few days ago, though, a 10-minute internal promo clip suddenly appeared online - totally insane, and confirmed as legit by director David Sandberg himself. However, he expressed regret over the leak, since it reveals several key plot points. In the clip, neon explosions, dinosaurs fighting Nazis, and the return of the Kung Führer all scream: »WE NEED SOME… ACTION!«. If you don’t mind spoilers, the video is GENIUS!
https://youtu.be/sDD6izSZInw

The film is still officially „trapped“, but maybe - just like with »Deadpool« back in the day - this leak will lead to a happy ending for the most absurd action film of our time.
22.05.2025 • OHANA MEANS FAMILY
Disney is bringing another animated classic to the big screen in a new guise: »Lilo & Stitch« is being remade as a live-action version. The film tells the touching story of Lilo, a little Hawaiian girl who feels lonely – until she encounters a strange creature at the animal shelter who turns out to be a genetic experiment and an alien being named Stitch.

Directed by Dean Fleischer Camp (»Marcel the Shell with Shoes On«), the remake features a mix of real locations, CGI, and a young cast. Young actress Maia Kealoha takes on the role of Lilo. Stitch himself is, of course, brought to life via computer animation – but Chris Sanders once again lends his voice.

Thematically, the film remains true to its origins: it's about family, togetherness, and the feeling of being different – ​​packaged in an entertaining mix of heart, humor, and action. You can see in cinemas today whether the new version can match the charm of the 2002 original.
21.05.2025 • MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - THE FINAL RECKONING
Ethan Hunt embarks on his (supposedly) final mission. »Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning«, the eighth installment in the series, premiered a week ago at the Cannes Film Festival - and starting today, we can finally watch it in theaters.

The latest chapter of the legendary action series sends Tom Cruise, in his iconic role, on a mission with his team to track down the artificial intelligence known as "The Entity". It has taken control of global communication systems and nuclear weapons, posing a grave threat to worldwide security ...

Fans of gripping, adrenaline-fueled action cinema definitely won't be disappointed with »Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning«. And of course, Tom Cruise once again outdoes himself with his stunts - this time as a pilot flying an aircraft. The trailer already gives you a glimpse of the spectacle:
https://youtu.be/fsQgc9pCyDU

Even though the film, as the title suggests, is conceived as a possible conclusion to the series, it remains unclear whether it will actually be Hunt's final mission.
21.05.2025 • FRESH SUPPLY FROM FAR EAST!

21.05.2025 • NEW TRAILERS THIS WEEK
It's an exciting time for film and series lovers, with announcements coming in thick and fast - and this week brings a fresh wave of trailers from some of the biggest and boldest franchises out there. From horror to animation, from sci-fi to action, we’re treated to first glimpses of »IT: Welcome to Derry«, »Wednesday«, »Zootopia 2«, »Predator: Killer of Killers«, and »Jurassic World: Rebirth«.

The HBO series »IT: Welcome to Derry« dives deep into the terrifying origins of Pennywise the Clown, acting as a prequel to »IT« and »IT Chapter Two«, based on Stephen King's iconic novel. Bill Skarsgård reprises his chilling role, with the story set in 1962, 27 years before the events of the first film. And there's more to come: two additional seasons have already been announced, jumping back another 27 years each - to 1935 and 1908. The nine episodes are expected to premiere this fall on HBO and Max.
Watch the eerie first trailer here:
https://youtu.be/6HG-wsRsg8s

Fans have long expected a sequel to the 2016 animated sensation »Zootopia« with the unlikely crime-fighting duo Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman). In part 2, they are now occupied by the shenanigans of the slippery reptile Gary De'Snake, voiced by ever rising star Ke Huy Quan.
Disney's newly released teaser (or rather, techno-music-visualizer) is so wonderfully bizarre that it's probably safe to assume this sequel will once again be a wild ride for audiences of all ages:
https://youtu.be/xo4rkcC7kFc
The film is set to hit theaters in November.

The Tim Burton series phenomenon »Wednesday«, centered around the title character played by Jenna Ortega, returns with part 1 of its second season on Netflix starting August 6th. Part 2 will follow just one month later on September 3rd, each part consisting of four episodes. A new preview trailer, which feels more like a behind-the-scenes featurette, gives us a glimpse into the horror-comedy show's return:
https://youtu.be/XWQlSo6eBNw
Notably, the entire Addams Family will play a much more central role this season, with Pugsley (Isaac Ordonez) now attending Nevermore Academy himself, complete with emerging superpowers. Also joining the cast is Joanna Lumley as Grandmama, the delightfully eccentric grandmother of Wednesday.

Adult animation continues to rise, and »Predator: Killer of Killers« is jumping right on the trend. This animated anthology film features three legendary warriors - a Viking woman, a ninja, and a WWII Allied pilot - who all become prey to the galaxy's most feared hunter. With a painterly visual style and deliberately reduced frame rate, the film is reminiscent of »Arcane« and graphic novel art:
https://youtu.be/fbddYji1F8s
The movie hits Disney+ and Hulu on June 6th.

Last but not least, we have a new trailer from the world of dinosaurs … and to be honest: it looks seriously exciting! While the »Jurassic World« trilogy started to fizzle out toward the end, this new entry appears to bring back the thrill. That's likely due to director Gareth Edwards, who already proved with »Rogue One: A Star Wars Story« and »Godzilla« that he knows how to bring epic scale back to sluggish blockbuster franchises, and who seems to fully understand how to depict sheer magnitude. His latest film »The Creator« was also a visual feast of grand sci-fi cinema. We're definitely intrigued! The cast - Scarlett Johansson, Mahershala Ali, and Jonathan Bailey - is top-notch. The only odd choice: introducing a new six-legged mutant Tyrannosaurus Rex as the new villain. You can't beat the classics, just bring us our beloved T-Rex.
Here's the spectacular trailer:
https://youtu.be/6m1eOoUoVao
The film hits theaters this July.
19.05.2025 • BRING HER BACK
The year 2025 definitely feels like the year of horror. Just last week, there were numerous new trailers for psychological thrillers and horror films, one more disturbing than the other. »Bring Her Back« appears to be one of those works, that will really captivate and, above all, shock you. We are happy to serve you the new trailer:
https://youtu.be/1I15ttCedfY

Andy and his visually impaired half-sister Piper move into a cozy country house, where their new foster mother Laura lives. At first glance, she appears friendly and life-affirming. Besides her, there is the apathetic boy Ollie, who is more than a little unsettling to the siblings. When the two witness a sinister ritual, they realize the threat behind Laura - but it's already too late for an escape.

After »Talk to Me«, »Bring Her Back« is the second film by twin brothers Danny and Michael Philippou. The lead role is played by Sally Hawkins, who is known for her role in »The Shape of Water«, among others. The film will be released at the end of May or in early August, depending on the location.
15.05.2025 • LOVE, DEATH & ROBOTS
The acclaimed anthology series »Love, Death & Robots« - or, as it might more accurately be called by now: Cats, Death & Robots - finally returns today with its fourth season after a three-year break.

What began as an experimental project has since grown into a cultural phenomenon. The show's unique concept involves the team around Tim Miller and David Fincher sending a selection of scripts - based on short stories by various sci-fi authors - to animation studios around the globe. The result: an astonishing range of styles, techniques, and visual identities that turned »Love, Death & Robots« into a milestone for mature, artistically driven animation, and that helped the series change the perception of the medium, together with titles like »Arcane« and the Spider-Verse films.

While the first season often echoed the outdated, hypersexualized gender roles of its source material, the series has since developed a darkly humorous and sharply satirical tone - biting, clever, and consistently surprising. Fun fact: for the first time, David Fincher himself has directed one of the episodes in what is clearly a passion project for him with the voices of the Red Hot Chili Peppers - definitely something to look forward to.

And yes - the cats. Always the cats! 😻💀🤖
15.05.2025 • LIFE IS FULL OF SURPRISES!
After a long break since the last part of the horror film series, »Final Destination: Bloodlines« is hitting theaters today. Although we don't expect a profound story with spectacular twists and complex characters (we'd still like to be surprised 😉), we definitely expect a good amount of tension that would make us want to cover our eyes. Even the trailer leaves us filled with horror as fate takes its course for the clueless victims:
https://youtu.be/UWMzKXsY9A4

What appears to be a series of dramatic coincidences in »Final Destination: Bloodlines« is actually the terrifying game of death. After all, he takes the lives that are rightfully his - or that should never have existed. As her grandmother once did, Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana) sees in terrible visions how her family dies in tragic accidents. To prevent this nightmare, the student searches for a way to break the cycle of death. While doing so, she comes across the answer to why death has set his sight on her family.
15.05.2025 • NEW TRAILERS
And there's another heap of trailers already that we don't want to keep from you. Here are our highlights of the last few days:

SUPERMAN
Last night, we got a better look at what to expect from James Gunn's »Superman« thanks to a second trailer. And it's already clear that we're in for the typical Gunn blend of grounded humor, exaggerated characters, arguably too much content for a single film, and very human (or alien) emotions. Especially the relationship between Clark Kent/Superman, played by David Corenswet, and Lois Lane, portrayed by Rachel Brosnahan, comes through strongly in the opening scene. As a couple, they radiate a deep familiarity, yet during an interview, Lois asks hard-hitting questions without sparing her partner. It becomes apparent that Clark is somewhat naive and not fully aware of the responsibility that comes with being a "godlike" figure. It's great to see how effortlessly Corenswet shifts his tone and demeanor when transitioning from Clark to Superman - a scene that feels very reminiscent of Christopher Reeve. One true goosebump moment in the trailer is when John Williams' iconic melody kicks in, in a monumental new arrangement, accompanied by the voices of the two most important men in Clark's life: his adoptive father Jonathan Kent (Pruitt Taylor Vince), offering words of encouragement, and his greatest adversary Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult), whose words drip with contempt. »Superman« will hit theaters as the DCU's theatrical debut this July. Watch the trailer here:
https://youtu.be/Ox8ZLF6cGM0

IRONHEART
Now let's switch from DC to its biggest competitor, Marvel, and from the start of a new superhero universe to the iron heart of a well-established one. »Ironheart«, the next Disney+ series from the MCU, is just around the corner. Although the show, created by Chinaka Hodge (»Snowpiercer«) with executive producer Ryan Coogler (»Black Panther«, »Sinners«), is set to hit screens this June, we've only seen leaks so far - no official footage until now. The series spent a long time in release limbo, especially due to the screenwriters' strikes, and had already wrapped filming in November 2022, which led to doubts it would ever see the light of day. But now it's finally here, and the trailer promises plenty of excitement and fun. After the brilliant, flying armor building Riri Williams returns from her trip to Wakanda in »Black Panther: Wakanda Forever« to her hometown of Chicago, she teams up with the ambiguous character Parker Robbins, a.k.a. The Hood. The trailer already suggests that this character, played by Anthony Ramos, could be one of the show's highlights. Much like Bob from »Thunderbolts*« recently, Marvel finally seems to be getting the hang of creating three-dimensional villains. 
So, here's the trailer for »Ironheart«:
https://youtu.be/WpW36ldAqnM

NOBODY 2
Bob Odenkirk returns in August as suburban dad and former assassin Hutch, and this time, the bad guys won't even let him relax on a family vacation. Odenkirk's deadpan style, combined with »John Wick«-like action, makes this film series the perfect popcorn experience. The new trailer - this time featuring an expanded family cast including a grandfather (played by Christopher Lloyd) - makes it clear that the movie doesn't take itself too seriously and is just here to deliver fun. 
Check out the trailer for this punch-packed sequel:
https://youtu.be/-5X2pt95cIo
13.05.2025 • 3 NEW HORROR TRAILERS
Today, we'd like to briefly introduce three new trailers that all fall within the horror genre.

THE CONJURING: LAST RITES
The Conjuring universe typically brings forth the most terrifying creatures, most notably the possessed doll from »Annabelle« and the malevolent demon from »The Nun«. However, we must not forget that the origin of those entities lies in the paranormal investigations of the Warren family. In »The Conjuring: Last Rites« Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) take on one last case, as usual based on (more or less) true events. This September you can see in theaters how the story of the two ends. The trailer is definitely not for the faint of heart:
https://youtu.be/FSAz556s0fM

THE LONG WALK
What happens when you can't walk anymore? This question is answered with a gunshot to the head in »The Long Walk«. A group of young people is forced to take one step after another, without rest and without a finish line, until the last one is left standing. The story is based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King. The film is directed by Francis Lawrence, who also was the director of the »Hunger Games« series except for the first part. »The Long Walk« starts in theaters this September. Here is the trailer:
https://youtu.be/vAtUHeMQ1F8

TOGETHER
Insane horror, dark humor, and a bit of romance - that's probably the best way to describe »Together«. Millie (Alison Brie) and Tim (Dave Franco) have been together for many years. However, after a move to the countryside, the couple's relationship is at a crossroads. Before they can decide how to proceed, a supernatural event brings a fresh breeze into their lives. The film will hit theaters this summer and deals with the topics of closeness and distance in a completely unexpected way. Fun fact: the actors in the two main roles are married in real life. Perhaps that's why they appear so authentic in the trailer:
https://youtu.be/v4Xu-jxRG5c
12.05.2025 • KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON
»Peacemaker« returns! The streaming service Max released the first official teaser on YouTube at the end of last week - and it's really making us excited for Season 2!

While the first season was created before James Gunn and Peter Safran brought the new DC Universe to life, Season 2 will now be the first live-action show to join the DCU, following the animated series »Creature Commandos«, which got off to a strong start in December, and the superhero blockbuster »Superman«, which is scheduled to hit theaters on July 10.

The first overlaps are already apparent in the teaser, in which Peacemaker appears to be invited to a job interview and fails miserably to convince the jury, consisting of Maxwell Lord (Sean Gunn), Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), and Green Lantern (Nathan Fillion), of his skills. All three will previously make their DCU debut in »Superman«. The teaser also reveals something else: Frank Grillo appears again as Rick Flag Sr. ... and he still has a score to settle with Peacemaker.

Of course, we can also look forward to seeing the rest of the team from Season 1 again - although each of them has their own little problems to deal with ...

The season premiere has been announced by the US streaming service Max for August 21. Information on when and where Season 2 will arrive in other countries is still pending.
08.05.2025 • DIAMOND BANKRUPTCY - AD POPULUM WINS
The events surrounding the bankruptcy of Diamond Comic Distributors continue!

The company, which includes the manufacturers Diamond Select Toys and Gentle Giant, filed for bankruptcy at the beginning of the year. After we reported to you a little over a month ago that Diamond would likely be acquired by Alliance Entertainment, there has now been a twist in this matter. Diamond disagreed with this takeover and preferred Ad Populum, which owns NECA, among others, and Universal Distribution. Alliance sued and won, but later withdrew from the deal. After some back and forth, Ad Populum and Universal Distribution were finally confirmed as the new buyers.

If all goes well, Diamond Select Toys, Gentle Giant, and NECA will soon be sister companies - let's hope for the best!
