Meet H.E.R.B.I.E., the state-of-the-art personal assistant of the Fantastic 4. H.E.R.B.I.E. helps with anything and everything they need, from cooking and cleaning, to watching Sue and Reed's baby. I think we could all use a H.E.R.B.I.E.

Phineas and Ferb Theme Song

Disney

Phineas and Ferb are back for another 104 days of summer vacation. That means more over-the-top plans, more Candace trying to bust them, more Doofenschmirtz attempting to take over the Tri-State Area, and more Perry the Platypus putting a stop to his schemes. It should be a great summer!


Phineas and Ferb season 5 has begun on Disney Channel and DisneyPlus, with new episodes arriving each week. The first four seasons are available now on DisneyPlus.

The locations really add to the look of the film.

The latest trailer for Marvel's Ironheart shows Riri Williams trying to find her place in the world. And it looks like she's merging her tech with magic to create something new, perhaps with dangerous consequences.


Here's the official synopsis from Marvel
Set after the events of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” Marvel Television’s “Ironheart” pits technology against magic when Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne)—a young, genius inventor determined to make her mark on the world—returns to her hometown of Chicago. Her unique take on building iron suits is brilliant, but in pursuit of her ambitions, she finds herself wrapped up with the mysterious yet charming Parker Robbins aka “The Hood” (Anthony Ramos). The series also stars Lyric Ross, Alden Ehrenreich, Regan Aliyah, Manny Montana, Matthew Elam and Anji White.

Marvel's The Fantastic 4: First Steps looks absolutely fantastic. I love the retro look and the fact that they are really focusing on the Fantastic 4 as a family. 


Here's the official synopsis from Marvel: 

"The Fantastic Four: First Steps" introduces Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm/Invisible Woman (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm/Human Torch (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm/The Thing (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus’ plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren’t bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal.

The action adventure also stars Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, Natasha Lyonne, and Sarah Niles.

Wicked: For Good Trailer

Wicked: For Good
All images: Universal

The first trailer for Wicked: For Good has arrived, and it looks just as incredible as the first part. This film tells the second half of the tale of Elphaba, Glinda, and that dastardly Wizard of Oz.


Here's the official synopsis from Universal:

The final chapter of the untold story of the witches of Oz begins with Elphaba and Glinda estranged and living with the consequences of their choices. 

Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo), now demonized as The Wicked Witch of the West, lives in exile, hidden within the Ozian forest while continuing her fight for the freedom of Oz’s silenced Animals and desperately trying to expose the truth she knows about The Wizard (Jeff Goldblum).  

Glinda (Ariana Grande), meanwhile, has become the glamorous symbol of Goodness for all of Oz, living at the palace in Emerald City and reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. Under the instruction of Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh), Glinda is deployed to serve as an effervescent comfort to Oz, reassuring the masses that all is well under the rule of The Wizard.

As Glinda’s stardom expands and she prepares to marry Prince Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey) in a spectacular Ozian wedding, she is haunted by her separation from Elphaba. She attempts to broker a conciliation between Elphaba and The Wizard, but those efforts will fail, driving Elphaba and Glinda only further apart. The aftershocks will transform Boq (Ethan Slater) and Fiyero forever, and threaten the safety of Elphaba’s sister, Nessarose (Marissa Bode), when a girl from Kansas comes crashing into all their lives. 

As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, Glinda and Elphaba will need to come together one final time. With their singular friendship now the fulcrum of their futures, they will need to truly see each other, with honesty and empathy, if they are to change themselves, and all of Oz, for good. 

Wicked: For Good also stars Bowen Yang and Bronwyn James as Glinda’s fawning assistants, Pfannee and ShenShen and Sharon D. Clarke as the voice of Elphaba’s childhood nanny, Dulcibear.

Wicked: For Good arrives in theaters on November 21st.
