James Gunn teases that he’s got a few DC Comics projects on the way. Chris Evans’ Buzz Lightyear leads the way in a new Lightyear clip. Harley Quinn gets even closer to teasing a season 3 release date. Plus, what’s coming on The Orville and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. To me, my spoilers!
Avatar 2
Avatar 2 producer Jon Landau described some of the new species we’ll meet on Pandora in a recent interview with Empire.
The idea was to create a creature that was on the scale of Pandora. A tulkun is, like, 91.44 m long. They are a sentient species and as intelligent in their own way as the Na’vi are in theirs. […] [A skimwing is] like a giant flying fish but keeps its trail in the water – its tail is its propulsion. The Metkayina [water tribe] and all the reef people use them as their military mounts when they’re going into combat. They can go 97 km per hour for endless periods of time.

Matt Duffer addressed the astronomical running time of Stranger Things’ season four finale in a recent interview with Empire.
The final episode has more FX shots than the entirety of Season 3. There’s an hour-long chunk in the final episode that just doesn’t stop. It’s the most complicated thing we’ve ever attempted to do. [It’s] all tension and dread, with a run-time that would be long even for a movie. Then – well, everything goes to hell…
