The Umbrella Academy Season 3 Will Reportedly Begin Filming Next Year

Through two seasons, Netflix superhero team The Umbrella Academy hasn’t had terribly good luck in averting the apocalypse. Maybe the third time’s the charm. Netflix has not yet confirmed the existence of The Umbrella Academy season 3 but according to a new report from Production Weekly, filming on a new season is set to begin on February 1, 2021 before wrapping up in August. That puts the third season on track for a potential mid-2022 release.

Cyberpunk 2077 Developers Begin Controversial Crunch Schedule Despite Studio Promises

An email acquired by Bloomberg reveals that developer CD Projekt Red will require their employees to work six-day weeks despite previously stating they would not demand a “crunch” work schedule. “Starting today, the entire studio is in overdrive,” CD Projekt Red boss Adam Badowski states in the email. “I take it upon myself to receive the full backlash for the decision.

Frozen 3: Kristen Anderson-Lopez Jokes She’ll Begin Work ‘As Soon as There’s a Vaccine’

Bobby Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez have a unique collaborative process when it comes to songwriting. As they’re wont to joke, they were working out of their apartment in Brooklyn, and over telecommuting services, before it was cool—or necessary due to the coronavirus pandemic. But as they reflected on the global phenomenon that was Frozen 2 a half-year later in a Zoom press conference, and ahead of a new documentary series about the movie set to premiere on Disney+, they revealed even they’re desperate for things to return to normal… so much so Kristen Anderson-Lopez joked about being desperate enough to…

Box Office Hits Historic Lows Over Weekend as Theaters Begin Closing

The box office suffered its worst weekend in 22 years over the last three days (and that’s not taking into account inflation). Once a weekend refuge for those looking for distraction, fear of gathering with more than 50 strangers—which the Centers for Disease Control has just warned should be avoided—left North American movie theaters largely empty while anxiety over the coronavirus pandemic grows. It also spells ominous signs for the future of moviegoing. Despite two genre-heavy openings with Vin Diesel’s superhero movie, Bloodshot, and Universal Pictures’ unfairly delayed The Hunt, neither film found much of an audience, each opening outside…
