When Rajamouli and RRR unveiled a model of how to promote a pan-India film, a situation arose that everyone had to follow. The opinion is strongly rooted in the industry people that people will not see unless they go to other states more than the mother tongue state and do a lot of publicity. That’s why special flights have to go round many cities and towns. Adhering to the adage that Kadedi is unworthy of promotion, the entire team is falling wherever there is an opportunity.
Now teams like Ligar and Laal Singh Chaddha are working on the same. Vijay Devarakonda has been busy with the North Tour for the past ten days. He is trying hard to market himself in shopping malls, colleges, metro trains, private events, hotels, interviews with news channels, and OTT. In Mumbai, however, the fact that the meeting had to be stopped in the middle and turned back was highlighted in the media there. It’s all a liger story.
While Mano is roaming there, Aamir Khan is repeatedly coming to Hyderabad and trying hard to increase the hype on Lal Singh. Chiranjeevi is also doing programs specifically for this instead of acting as a nominal presenter. Watched the movie for the second time at the premiere at AMB. It is remarkable that Aamir’s focus is here more than in Hindi. The rowdy hero in the north and the versatile star in the south are roaming around as if they have exchanged something. Let’s see what kind of results will come
From having control of the seas to also being the lord of the skies. A strange and absolutely funny parable for Aquaman or, better said, for Jason Momoa. In fact, in recent days, a video starring the actor has gone viral, to the point that the public has started calling him Aquaman.
All this happened on a scheduled flight of the Hawaiian Airlines company, on which the actor improvised himself as a steward and began distributing bottles of Mananalu water, an eco-sustainable brand created by Jason Momoa himself, to passengers. he all wearing a gray and black suit and a pink flower as a clip in her hair.
The video ended up on TikTok and the user who posted it renamed the actor Aquaman, playing on the similarity of the Spanish word agua to the original Aquaman, a character played by Momoa in the DC Comics films.
As explained by the actor himself, it was obviously a promotional campaign for both the airline and “its” water, with the important message in the background of trying to remove disposable plastic from the market as soon as possible. On his Instagram, Momoa revealed the backstage of the whole and explained the goals in detail:
Thank you Hawaiian Airlines for allowing my team and me to capture this special moment. It is a dream come true. The idea of creating Mananalu Water came to me while I was flying. I am grateful for the support from you and it is an honor for me that Hawaiian Airlines is the brand’s first airline partner. Our goal is to stop the use of disposable plastic. “Drink one, remove one”: for each bottle of Mananalu Water sold, we are able to remove a plastic bottle from the ocean. We have removed 3 million since the beginning of this year. Don’t stop creating waves to save our beautiful planet. Aloha
The initiative of Jason Momoa, who then delivered the water in reusable aluminum bottles, contrasts with what has been highlighted by the media around the world in the last period: many, too many, celebrities use private jets to reach various locations, even organizing flights that last a few minutes.
An investigation highlighted the names of Taylor Swift, Kylie Jenner, and Travis Scott among the ten celebrities who, with this dynamic, emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Representatives of Taylor Swift denied and denied, explaining that the singer also hires her jet, thus arguing that she is not directly responsible for her.
Jason Momoa, for his part, has always shown that he is attentive to the environment and this umpteenth initiative only confirms everything.
Squid Game has unhinged all kinds of records since it came out on Netflix in September 2021. It has become a real popular phenomenon around the world. Fans can rest easily because the second season is in the works. While waiting, however, let’s delve into the folds of the first and discover ten little-known curiosities.
1. Squid Game wasn’t exactly cheap
Contrary to what one might expect for the first season of a foreign series, Netflix didn’t want to spare any expense for Squid Game. The budget was over $ 20 million (about 2.5 million per episode). The investment it generated, however, was equally mind-boggling: it even seems that the platform has earned a whopping 900 million dollars.
2. Pure adrenaline
One of the most adrenaline-pumping moments of Squid Game is undoubtedly crossing the glass bridge. The production revealed that the bridge was truly made of glass in order to push the actors and actresses into a more spontaneous reaction. Of course, if they fell they would not have plunged into a deadly cliff as in the series.
3. What a beautiful name
Several times throughout the first season of Squid Game we hear a character claim that Sae-Byeok (# 067, played by Jung Ho-Yeon) is a cool name. But why? Because in Korean Sae-Byeok means ‘dawn’.
4. Taken from a true story
Series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has revealed that his private life played a central role in the development of Squid Game. In fact, he too was plunged into debt and did not know how to get by. Until he wrote the script for the series (it was 2018) and after some denials, Netflix didn’t decide to put it into production.
5. White Vans fly
A phenomenon is also measured in the way in which it knows how to go beyond its own means of expression and influence other fields. Squid Game is a phenomenon, there is no doubt about that. Suffice it to say that the white canvas Vans worn by the characters sold like hot cakes after the debut of the television series. In fact, sales increased by 7800%, a real overwhelming success.
6. Memories from the set
It is now a custom – it is not known how much it is actually tolerated – that some props disappear and become souvenirs of actors and actresses who have starred in a certain film or in a certain series. Squid Game was no exception. In particular, Anupam Tripathi (number 199) decided to take home the green jumpsuit he wore in the series as a souvenir for his work.
7. An unattainable record
Not even the phenomenon Stranger Things 4 managed to break the Squid Game record, which recorded 1.7 billion hours of views in the first 28 days of release. Stranger Things 4 stopped at 1.4 billion hours.
8. Squid Game becomes reality
The success of a phenomenon, we said, is also measured by its derivations. Squid Game is undoubtedly a phenomenon. Netflix has decided to give life to Squid Game – The Challenge, a reality show based on the games of the TV series which will involve 456 people from all over the world. The prize up for grabs will be 4.56 million dollars and if it is won, of course, whoever makes it to the end of the games. Whoever loses – it is right to specify – will not be killed, but simply eliminated from the game.
9. Significant numbers
There are numbers in television series that are not made up. In particular, the telephone number that can be read on the organization’s business card and the current account into which the prize is paid to the winner. These are two really existing numbers: the first owned by a lady who reported exhausted the thousands of phone calls received; the second from one of the producers who (reluctantly) had to block the account after a few years ago they started paying 456 won.
10. Squid Game was supposed to be a movie
The creator himself revealed it: originally Squid Game was supposed to be a movie. And that’s not surprising, given Hwang’s film background who has written and directed some blockbuster films in Korea.
The release of She-Hulk on Disney + is approaching (the appointment is set for August 18) and the marketing campaign continues. Recently, the show’s Twitter profile released some new photos, in which you can take a closer look at the protagonists. In particular, it is finally possible to see clearly the costume of Daredevil, one of the most anticipated characters of the television series.
Recall that it will be the first time that we will see Charlie Cox’s Daredevil in action after the three seasons of the show aired on Netflix. Matt Murdock’s character had also appeared in Spider-Man: No Way Home, but only in civilian clothes. You can see the tweet below: by clicking on the four images that compose it will be possible to see the characters of the show.
She-Hulk, everything we know about the new Marvel series
Recall that Jessica Gao is the main screenwriter and executive producer of She-Hulk while Kat Coiro led the team of directors. The cast will include Tatiana Maslany (She-Hulk), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk), Benedict Wong (Wong) and Tim Roth (Abomination: the actor reprises the role 15 years after playing him in The Incredible Hulk), but also Jameela Jamil, Josh Segarra, Ginger Gonzaga, Jon Bass and Renée Elise Goldsberry.
Producing is Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito and Brad Winderbaum. The protagonist of the series, Jennifer Walters, is a lawyer who specializes in cases involving superheroes. After receiving a blood transfusion from cousin Bruce Banner, Jennifer too discovers she can transform into a super-muscular green giant.
Her challenge at this point will be to find a way to balance life as a lawyer and life as a superhero. With a fair amount of trouble, she will have to deal with.
Peter Jackson reveals that he was snubbed by the production of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power series after being asked to collaborate. Peter Jackson is the Oscar-winning director who revolutionized genre cinema with his The Lord of the Rings trilogy, before turning back to the fantasy world created by JRR Tolkien with The Hobbit trilogy.
So when Amazon announced the making of a series based on the world of The Lord of the Rings – a record-breaking production inspired by the Appendices to the work of the master of fantasy and expansion of Tolkien’s mythology – many fans found it hard to imagine a depiction. Middle-earth film without Jackson’s contribution. Apparently, the director was given the opportunity to collaborate, but then he was cut off from the project.
Peter Jackson was snubbed from The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power series after being asked to collaborate
The director revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that he had been asked to participate in the show and that he had given his availability, but when he asked Amazon to send him the scripts, the production of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power he never answered him. “They asked me if I wanted to get involved. I replied ‘This is an impossible question to answer without seeing a script first’. So they said: ‘As soon as we have the first two scripts, we will send them to you. And the scripts never came. But it’s fine. No complaints “.
In a statement also issued to THR, Amazon responded to Peter Jackson’s comments citing an “obligation” to differentiate themselves from the director’s films. According to THR, this decision is due to the fact that Warner Bros. Discovery still owns the rights to the films, and therefore the Amazon series had to differentiate itself from that intellectual property at all costs.
“In pursuing the rights to our show, we were obliged to keep the series distinct and separate from the films,” a company spokesperson said. “We have the utmost respect for the Peter Jackson and Lord of the Rings films and are thrilled that he is looking forward to watching The Rings of Power.” Despite the misunderstanding, Peter Jackson wishes the series the best and plans to watch it alongside audiences when it arrives on Prime Video (September 2, 2022).
A podcast launched the sensational fan theory and evidence would support the thesis.

Ifan of the series hazards a theory about Stranger Things 5, which, if true, would upset every mechanism: Vecna would actually be the father of Eleven! To suggest for the first time a podcast entitled Just the Nobodys was published on TikTok. At first glance, the scenery seems pure suggestion and nothing else. Still, there is a fair amount of supporting evidence.
Stranger Things 5: the relationship between Vecna and Undici
According to the Stranger Things 5 thesis, Brenner was well aware that none of the two to ten children were as strong as the first. As a result, the doctor gave Uno time to grow up to reproduce with Terry Ives and thus give birth to Eleven, so that she was the strongest.
Terry Ives is the mother of the protagonist. In 1969, she joined the MKUltra project, under the supervision of Dr. Martin Brenner, where she underwent experiments involving psychedelic drugs, capable of altering the mind and stimulating the senses. In late 1970 (or early 1971) she became pregnant and in June 1971 she had a daughter named Jane. Which Brenner took, covering it all up as a miscarriage. Terry didn’t fall for it and tried to reclaim her daughter by force but without success. Hence, Jane became Eleven, whose perception could radically change in Stranger Things 5.
According to the podcast, Brenner’s efforts to clone 001 did not yield the desired results. As a result, he worked to get her (who would have turned 24 in 1971) to get Terry Ives pregnant in order to shape a superpowered creature.
This would actually explain why Brenner had a unique bond with Eleven from the start and considered it his “special project”. Also, the way 001 told Eleven that “Dad” doesn’t always tell the truth and seeing himself in her and knowing the key to unlocking the young woman’s powers feeds the guesswork. Will they be correct? Only Stranger Things 5 can answer us!

The Lord of the Rings, the famous book by J.R.R. Tolkien of fantasy mold, has recently returned to vogue with the arrival of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, the new television series by Prime Video that brings to the small screen some fascinating and in some cases original stories related to the Second Age of Middle Earth.
Well, while we know with certainty that Peter Jackson (King Kong, The Beatles: Get Back) did not take part in the project and indeed the filmmaker said he was snubbed by the production, we recently discovered an absurd fact concerning the iconic film-maker with his cinematic hat-trick dedicated to the aforementioned Tolkien book has acquired disproportionate fame.
The Lord of the Rings is one of the most successful and spectacular adaptations in the history of cinema
Well, not everyone knows that Jackson was actually a great lover of the works of the British philologist and writer and this, in reality, can be understood by thinking about how he managed the adaptation in a precise and perfect way. In a recent interview with a podcast of The Hollywood Reporter, the author himself said that in the past he seriously considered the hypothesis of being hypnotized to forget the work done with The Lord of the Rings and thus see the three films with a fresh mind, like any fan. Below you will find his words in detail.
When we made the Lord of the Rings movies, I always felt that I was the unfortunate person who never got to see an up-and-coming film. When there were projections, I was immersed in them for five or six years. It was such a loss for me not to be able to see them like everyone else.
In fact, I seriously considered the idea of going to a hypnotherapy guy to hypnotize myself to make me forget the movies and the work I had done. for the past six or seven years so I could sit back and enjoy them. I didn’t follow him, but I talked about it with [British mentalist] Derren Brown and he thought he could do it. “

Idris Elba (full name Idrissa Akuna Elba) is a famous English actor who also enjoys playing as a DJ under the pseudonyms DJ Big Driis / Big Driis the Londoner. The star, born in 1972, made his acting debut with the film Belle Maman in 1999 and over time has built an incredibly varied career by participating in both small and large projects both on the small and large screen.
While he is best known on television for lending the face of Inspector John Luther within Luther (2010-2019), the star is particularly impressed in the cinema for playing Heimdall in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the anti-hero Bloodsport in the DCEU. , most notably in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad (2021).
Idris Elba made his film debut with Belle maman (1999)
A role particularly appreciated by the public considering the importance of the character within the film and which we hope will have a future life. Some time ago, in reality, a user asked Gunn directly if it will be possible to have a project starring precisely the figure embodied by Idris Elba and the filmmaker said he was convinced and enthusiastic about the idea, even if he lacked the time.
material to create such a work. Well, according to recent declarations by the star, hope is ignited. In an interview, reported by CBR, between the journalist Erik Davis and the star, an interesting detail emerged.
Idris Elba himself, in fact, admitted that in the future we will see him as part of a major DC project, but has not specified what it is. And was he referring to the Bloodsport-centric title? Obviously, at present, we have too little information to speculate, however, by joining the points, it would not be so strange to see the realization in question also taking into account the experimentalism that Detective Comics has been implementing in the last period.
Apparently, Warner Bros. is seriously considering the return of Henry Cavill’s Superman to the DC Extended Universe!

It’s been news that has been around for years, but now it looks like something is finally stirring up at the Warner Bros offices. The company is reportedly considering the potential return of star Henry Cavill as Superman for a new foray into the DC Extended Universe!
In a conversation on Twitter Spaces between reporters Erik Davis of Fandango and Umberto Gonzalez of The Wrap, the coveted update on the future of Henry Cavill’s Superman (recently busy with Netflix filming the Witcher season 3) was given. “The Multiverse has to stay, if they want to keep [Supergirl actress] Sasha Calle and bring a new Superman to life or bring Cavill back to life or something, this has to be a reality,” Gonzalez said.
Davis responded by saying he heard Cavill was asked to return to the role, but he refused. Gonzalez, however, said that Warner Bros. Discovery adores the actor as Superman and is not very willing to let him go. Words that are striking, given that Cavill has always said he is more than willing to return in the role of the iconic hero of the DC house. Just last December he revealed that he is still waiting for the “fateful call” from Warner Bros.
Is Henry Cavill’s Superman Really Coming Back?
“This will probably turn into a story, I’m not sure, but I’m pretty sure maybe they’ll try to bring it back…” the reporter from The Wrap said. “I could be wrong, I just don’t think they’ve had a chance to get him back yet. But again, it’s all in the hands of whoever is overseeing the DC universe, and this committee reports to David Zaslav [CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery]. It’s been almost ten years since we saw him in Man of Steel, but personally, I don’t think it’s over yet ”.
