There’s a lot of confusion surrounding the title of the version of Justice League coming to HBO Max next year, and Warner Bros. really isn’t helping with that! The theatrical version of Justice League was, of course, just “Justice League,” but it’s no secret that Zack Snyder would like his director’s cut to be called Zack Sndyer’s Justice League. 

Unfortunately, he’s hinted that legal problems could pose a problem with that, hence why no one was really surprised when DC FanDome appeared to confirm that it will be titled Justice League: The Snyder Cut. Now, though, there’s another interesting wrinkle to this ongoing story.

Wallpapers released by Warner Bros. during DC FanDome yesterday are labelled simply Justice League Director’s Cut. Could that be the final, official title for the highly anticipated HBO Max release?

At this point, we probably shouldn’t bank on it, as it does feel a little like it’s a work in progress! Why we haven’t received a truly, 100% official title for Justice League is hard to say, but there’s a chance the studio is indeed working on getting the one Snyder wants: Zack Snyder’s Justice League. 

Time will tell, but a firm premiere date would definitely be welcome news for fans right now!

Cameras are once again rolling on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier in Atlanta, Georgia, and another video from the set of the Disney+ TV series has now found its way online. As you can see below, it shows Wyatt Russell’s John Walker/Captain America as he battles two unknown female villains (?).

Watching this, it’s apparent that U.S. Agent’s fighting style is much different to what we saw from Steve Rogers as he smashes his shield into the face of his foes and starts choking one of them.

This brutal style is to be expected from the unhinged Walker, and chances are he’s just as dangerous in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as he is in the comic books. Right now, we have no idea whether this U.S. Agent will be a full-blown villain or someone who goes on to be an anti-hero.

Either way, his “Captain America” is clearly going to bring a very different feel to this shared world, and our first proper look at him in action in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier can’t get here soon enough. When that will happen is hard to say, especially with no first premiere date in place right now.

During Ubisoft’s latest “Ubisoft Forward” presentation earlier this week, it was confirmed that a Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake is coming to the current generation of consoles next January. Developed by Ubisoft’s Pune and Mumbai studios, it’s going to be a faithful recreation of the original game, albeit with some enhancements in terms of gameplay and the visuals. 

Yuri Lowentha is back to voice the titular Prince, game director Pierre-Sylvain Gires assures fans that  the camera and combat have both been improved, while a new targeting system will “[enhance] the velocity of the Prince and his abilities to do amazing moves.” 

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time was originally released on the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and GameCube back in 2003, and received overwhelmingly positive reviews. A release date of January 21st, 2021 has been confirmed by Ubisoft, and while it’s currently only scheduled for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, a Nintendo Switch version if expected to eventually follow. 

We see a lot of video game remakes these days, but this is definitely cause for celebration, and it’s going to be a blast getting to return to this world, especially with updates that ensure it remains faithful to the original without feeling too dated. We’ll be sure to bring you the latest.

For now, check out the trailer below:

A few days ago, Variety reported that rival studios and media measurement and research company Rentrak have been struggling to obtain box office figures for Tenet. The trade explained that the studio has only been sharing weekend figures and not daily numbers (which is obviously the norm). 

It seems this is going to be the case moving forward as well, presumably because Warner Bros. doesn’t want to reveal how poorly Tenet is performing on a daily basis. Of course, the studio is under no obligation to share these figures, but controlling the narrative isn’t doing anyone any favours, and so it’s no wonder there’s a lot of anger aimed at Warner Bros. right now.

On the plus side, we do have the numbers for the past few days, as Tenet made $6.7 million during its second weekend at the North American box office. That gives it a total of $29.5 million domestically, while a $37.3 million haul overseas takes its running foreign total up to $177.5 million.

As a result, Tenet has now passed $200 million at the worldwide box office.

Looking at these figures – which are decent enough during a pandemic – it’s not remotely hard to understand why Warner Bros. recently decided to shift Wonder Woman 1984 to Christmas Day.

Have you seen Tenet yet?
