The final trailer for season 5 of Stranger Thingshas arrived and it's looking grim for the Hawkins gang. Hawkins has been walled off from the world, but together, they believe they can stop Vecna once and for all.
The fall of 1987. Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has vanished — his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they’ve faced before. To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time.
The cast of Stranger Things 5 includes: Winona Ryder (Joyce Byers), David Harbour (Jim Hopper), Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike Wheeler), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin Henderson), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas Sinclair), Noah Schnapp (Will Byers), Sadie Sink (Max Mayfield), Natalia Dyer (Nancy Wheeler), Charlie Heaton (Jonathan Byers), Joe Keery (Steve Harrington), Maya Hawke (Robin Buckley), Priah Ferguson (Erica Sinclair), Brett Gelman (Murray), Jamie Campbell Bower (Vecna), Cara Buono (Karen Wheeler), Amybeth McNulty (Vickie), Nell Fisher (Holly Wheeler), Jake Connelly (Derek Turnbow), Alex Breaux (Lt. Akers), and Linda Hamilton (Dr. Kay).

With Halloween right around the corner, Disney has released an eerily delightful new soundscape video. This one features the Haunted Mansion with multiple animated scenes and music from the different areas. It's perfect to listen to as you finish those last minute costume adjustments and add just a few more pumpkins to your Halloween decor.
It's nearly time to return to Zootopiafor another adventure. In this featurette, the cast of Zootopia 2 Jason Batemen takes us behind-the-scenes of their "Wilde Times" making the movie.
In Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia 2,” detectives Judy Hopps (voiced by Ginnifer Goodwin) and Nick Wilde (voiced by Jason Bateman) find themselves on the twisting trail of a mysterious reptile who arrives in Zootopia and turns the animal metropolis upside down. To crack the case, Judy and Nick must go undercover to unexpected new parts of town, where their growing partnership is tested like never before.
And, of course, there are four new delightfully wild posters (with some fantastically punny jokes). This poster for IMAX shows all of the characters crammed into a bus.
The poster for RealD 3D features Gary De’Snake with Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde.
The ScreenX poster gives us a glimpse of Nick and Judy in partners therapy.
And finally, the 4DX poster shows Judy and Nick getting really wrapped up in the case of Gary De’Snake.
LAIKA's next film is a unique take on a fairytale called Wildwood. Based on the book by The Decemberists' Colin Moloy, the story follows young Prue McKeel as she tries to rescue her baby brother from a land full of talking animals. This behind-the-scenes look focuses on one such animal: a giant golden eagle named The General. The General, voiced by Angela Bassett, is the protector of the Wildwood.
Here's the official synopsis from LAIKA:
Beyond Portland’s city limits lies Wildwood.You’re not supposed to go there. You’re not even supposed to know it exists. But Prue McKeel is about to enter this enchanted wonderland. Her baby brother Mac has been taken by a murder of crows into the forest’s depths, and she – along with her hapless classmate Curtis – is going to get him back. Prue might think she’s too old for fairytales, but she’s just found herself at the center of one. One filled with strange talking animals, roguish bandits, and powerful figures with the darkest intentions.
"But the most frightening thing of all was the wind howling among the trees. Ichabod was sure that it was the sound of the Headless Horseman out looking for his head."
The Haunted Mansion looks especially eerie during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. And, of course, "that is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight!" Madame Carlotta and Broom the Butler can often be found in front of the Mansion, regaling guests with ghostly tales.
