The confirmation of how Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) returns in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, despite dying in The Last Jedi, should not come as a surprise to anyone who's seen a Star Wars movie—or anyone with mild knowledge of how Star Wars or the Force works.

The war against petitions and Good Omens rages on.

Earlier this week, Hope Hicks testified in a closed-door interview with Congress. As promised, we now have a transcript of that testimony and it's as bizarre as what we'd heard, but there's also more information between the lines of those objections than we might have expected.

Sarah Gailey's new fantasy noir Magic for Liars is getting rave reviews across the board—and it features a "sharp and tart" private detective protagonist, Ivy Gamble, who you're going to love hanging out with. Here are some delectable bites from the book that we think will make you want to order up the full meal.

Feel-good stories about racists being teamed up with a Black person in order to teach them, "hey Black people, you guys are human too—how about that?" are seeing a giant resurgence in the post-Green Book world, and they are exhausting.

Don’t let a relatively quiet week in the news cycle around reproductive rights fool you—individual states, as of this week, are still trying to ban abortion.

These are just some of the facepalmy things said by candidates this week and it's only Thursday. It's also only 502 days until the 2020 general election.

In a world where it seems like one trash fire after another is constantly being lit, at least we can take comfort in this news out of the Into the Spider-Verse 'verse. A sequel is "definitely" on the way.

Even as we debated whether or not the lions can emote in Jon Favreau's The Lion King, it was a truth universally acknowledged that we're all excited for Beyoncé as Nala.

You'd think a quick Google search would help those trying to get Good Omens off the air but clearly, fate has a different idea.

"There’s a method to the madness."

Sanaa Lathan is voicing Catwoman in upcoming Harley Quinn show for DC Universe, and Aubrey Plaza wants to be a live-action Catwoman in upcoming Batman movie.
