Following the release of The Rise of Skywalker in 2019, Star Wars under the Disney banner shifted its focus from the big screen to streaming. The first Star Wars show to take the world by storm was The Mandalorian, which even spawned other shows like The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka. Disney Star Wars has also been working diligently to build out the animation department with new 2026 releases like Maul — Shadow Lord and The Ninth Jedi. The former has already been renewed for Season 2, and the latter is a spin-off of another Star Wars Disney Plus show, Visions. After years away from the big screen, Star Wars finally brought the magic back to the big screen with the premiere of The Mandalorian and Grogu, which takes place after the first three seasons of the Disney Plus show.

When it comes to popular video game adaptations, few shows or movies have picked up as much steam in recent years as The Last of Us. Based on the popular game series developed by Naughty Dog, the same studio behind the Uncharted games, The Last of Us released its first game back in 2013, and it followed with a sequel seven years later in 2020. Both games received widespread critical acclaim and several Game of the Year awards, and the show was turned into a TV show only a few years after The Last of Us Part II over on HBO. HBO recruited Pedro Pascal to play Joel in The Last of Us and Bella Ramsey to play Ellie — both actors have received Emmy nods for their performances in each of the first two seasons.

10 Years Later, Matt Damon’s Underrated Fantasy Epic Is Free to Watch

Collier Jennings — Sun, 26 Jul 2026 03:07:15 GMT

There's a running joke that most of Matt Damon's filmography has him playing characters who are trying to get home. It's a joke with some truth to it: from the gritty, war-torn landscape of Saving Private Ryan to being stranded on another planet in The Martian, Damon more often than not plays someone struggling against impossible odds. The Odysseytakes things to a new extreme, thanks to the double-header of being based on an iconic Greek myth and being directed by Christopher Nolan, but there's another epic starring Damon that's flown under the radar and is completely free to watch.

2026 has been a year full of ups and downs for Star Wars fans, who were treated to one of the highest-rated projects in franchise history: Maul — Shadow Lord, the Disney+ series starring Sam Witwer. Disney picked up the show for Season 2 before a single episode aired, and it’s all but confirmed that Season 2 will return next year. Things didn’t exactly go according to plan for the other official Star Wars release this year, The Mandalorian and Grogu, which was the franchise’s first feature film since The Rise of Skywalker in 2019. The Mandalorian and Grogu has grossed only $340 million at the box office at the time of writing, and it’s expected to finish its run with an even lower total than the $392 million earned by Solo: A Star Wars Story.

From 2015 to 2017, Netflix's true-crime drama Narcos made history on the platform.

Adam Blevins — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 10:00:27 GMT

The last few years have been busy for Pedro Pascal, who first exploded to new levels of fame thanks to his role in Game of Thrones. Pascal then expanded on his stardom by featuring in one of the greatest Netflix original crime thrillers of all time in Narcos, but the last few years, it’s been mostly Star Wars and superhero projects for the star. Pascal has been busy starring in three seasons of The Mandalorian and even the spin-off movie, The Mandalorian and Grogu, which is now playing in theaters everywhere. Last year, he made his long-awaited MCU debut as Reed Richards in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, opposite Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm. Both Pascal and Kirby are confirmed to return in both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, which are releasing in December 2026 and December 2027, respectively.

Star Wars Fans Send Pedro Pascal's A24 Hit Up Global Streaming Charts

Jake Hodges — Sun, 07 Jun 2026 20:00:15 GMT

Despite most expecting the film to fly into theaters and rocket its way towards the billion-dollar mark, the reality of The Mandalorian and Grogu's start to theatrical life has been much more underwhelming. Despite there seeming to be plenty of excitement for the big-screen transition of Pedro Pascal's titular bounty hunter, the film has struggled to hit the high bar set for it by franchise predecessors, not helped by the sudden, viral domination of horror movies Backrooms and Obsession.

Star Wars Fans Quietly Flock to Pedro Pascal’s $330M Near-Perfect Sci-Fi Masterpiece

Adam Blevins — Wed, 03 Jun 2026 21:00:14 GMT

The last few years have been quite the come-up for Pedro Pascal, and most of his newfound stardom can be traced back to his role as Din Djarin in The Mandalorian. However, Pascal did have a few notable roles under his belt before he ever put on the Beskar helmet — he’s still famous to this day for playing Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones, and while he was only around for one season, he left his mark on the fantasy franchise. Pascal also recently joined the MCU as Reed Richards in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, and he’s confirmed to reprise the role in Avengers: Doomsday later this year. Pascal is the definition of booked and busy, both with smaller feature films and big franchise projects like his latest blockbuster, The Mandalorian and Grogu.
