Anya Taylor-Joy's Near-Perfect Breakout Folk Thriller Is Officially Leaving Netflix

Anya Taylor-Joy has firmly established herself as one of her generation’s leading and most versatile actors. At 30, she has built a career across film and television , appearing in franchises like Super Mario and Mad Max , and winning a Golden Globe for her role in The Queen’s Gambit . This year she starred in the Apple TV series Lucky and will also appear in Dune: Part Three . She is one of the few modern stars who comfortably fit the movie-star label. It all began with her career-defining breakout role, which turned the final girl trope on its head — a girl who survives not by fighting, but by giving in. source https://www.polygon.com/anya-taylor-joy-the-witch-horror-heroine/

What if it dropped you into hell to stop a president’s wedding, or handed the entire story over to a teenager narrating her own homebrew Dungeons & Dragons campaign (complete with a dragon she very clearly made up five minutes ago)? source https://www.polygon.com/best-video-game-dlcs/

'Lanterns' Just Officially Settled a Major Question About the New DCU’s Canon

One of the earliest scenes in Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice returns to the big climactic battle from Man of Steel . This time, we see it from Bruce Wayne ’s perspective on the street, where collapsing buildings and crashing Kryptonians look less like superhero spectacle and more like mass destruction.
