This week’s episode is packed with major franchise news, horror hype, blockbuster trailers, and a little bit of Star Wars chaos.

We kick things off with the news that Matt Shakman, director of The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is officially heading to the Planet of the Apes franchise for a brand-new film, with writer Josh Friedman also returning. We talk about what this could mean for the future of the series and why the creative team has us excited.

In Trailer Talk, we react to a huge lineup of new trailers including Ted Lasso Season 4, the new Resident Evil, Evil Dead Burn, The Odyssey final trailer, and Tony — the Anthony Bourdain film directed by Matt Johnson. Some trailers instantly won us over, some surprised us, and a few sparked big conversations about where these franchises are headed next.

Then in What We’re Into, Miguel revisits Avengers: Infinity War and reflects on why it still works as one of the MCU’s biggest event films. Ed checks out Lord of the Flies on Netflix, dives into Hocum, and spends some time with Maul: Shadow Lord. Meanwhile, Luis jumps into the new Star Wars content and levels in Fortnite, bringing the galaxy far, far away into battle royale form once again.

A fun episode full of movie talk, TV hype, horror discussion, and big franchise energy from beginning to end.
