Netflix to Release Barbie Documentary Produced by the Team Behind Bridgerton

The Barbie phenomenon shows no signs of slowing down, as Netflix is set to release a documentary centered on the history of the Black Barbie. This surge in Barbie-related content was initially sparked by Greta Gerwig's Barbie movie, which premiered in theaters on July 21. The film achieved both critical and commercial success, earning a remarkable $1.4 billion at the box office and claiming the title of the year's biggest movie. Gerwig's creation undeniably triggered a cultural Barbie craze, leading to a resurgence of interest in all things Barbie. The Black Barbie documentary, as its name suggests, delves into the origin of the first Black Barbie doll, which made its debut in 1980, three decades after the original Barbie hit the market in 1959.

Latest Update on Another Spider-Man Spinoff Movie Leaves Fans Disappointed

Sony's Spider-Man Universe continues to carve out its own space in the Marvel movie landscape, but one project, Silver Sable, seems to be officially dead after a new update. Sony found success with its first Spider-Man spin-off - Venom - but the shared universe has struggled to bring some of its other characters to life. Morbius was released to poor reviews, and two more Spider-Man adjacent projects are on the way - 2024's Madame Webb and Kraven the Hunter. However, many other planned Sony Spider-Man Universe movies have remained stuck in development, as it's unclear what's happening with El Muerto, Hypno Hustler, Jackpot, and several others. Now, a new update about Silver Sable strongly suggests that the movie has been fully canceled. Lindsey Anderson Beer was previously connected to ...

Paw Patrol Triumphs Over Saw X at Weekend Box Office

In the realm of law enforcement, the pursuit of the enigmatic serial killer Jigsaw has been a relentless but fruitless endeavor for ten movies. However, it appears that a team of canine heroes in vehicles, collectively known as PAW Patrol, has managed to accomplish what countless human officers could not.
