Eiichiro Oda has a big update about Netflix One Piece‘s second season. Mike Colter has hopes Evil could find a new home after its impending finale. Plus, Russell T. Davies teases Doctor Who‘s Sea Devil spinoff. To me, my spoilers!
SOULM8TE
Deadline reports Claudia Doumit (The Boys) has joined the cast of the M3GAN spinoff, SOULM8TE, in a currently undisclosed role.
Ruiner
According to Variety, a film adaptation of Reikon’s cyberpunk twin-stick shooter, Ruiner, is now in development at Universal. Wes Ball (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes) is attached to direct.
Freakier Friday
A new Instagram post from Lindsay Lohan confirms filming is about to wrap on Freakier Friday.
Frankie Freako
“After calling a late-night party hotline that promises out-of-this-world fun, uptight yuppie Conor Sweeney must battle the pint-sized forces of evil unleashed through his phone line, led by the maniacal rock n’ roll goblin” of the title in the full trailer for Frankie Freako.
Daredevil: Born Again
During a recent interview with Screen Rant, Charlie Cox teased the arrival of White Tiger, as well as “a couple of other nice little cameos” in the first season of Daredevil: Born Again.
I remember getting those scripts, and the character that I’m thinking about in particular right now, I remember when I read that [story] before I started doing Daredevil in 2014. I always thought that was a really cool storyline and such an interesting character; such an interesting dynamic between the two of them. That was really fun, and I’m really excited about that. And there are a couple of other nice little cameos that come up.
X-Men ’97
During a recent Q&A (via Collider), X-Men ’97 producer Brad Winderbaum confirmed the second season will include “two other X teams.”
There’s many teams, in Marvel, that have the letter “X” that are followed by a hyphen. I would put it to you like this…there’s two other X teams in Season 2.
One Piece
One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda provided an update on the second season of Netflix’s live-action adaptation.
News Coo just delivered something special from Oda-Sensei and it’s filled with excitement and anticipation for Season 2! 🗞️😆 Big reveals are on the horizon, Straw Hats. Brace yourselves for the journey ahead! 🌊🏴☠️ pic.twitter.com/NcywD1sMI3

Evil
In conversation with Decider, Mike Colter stated tomorrow’s Evil finale could begin “a new chapter” with “potential to continue” if any prospective streamer or network is interested doing so.
No, we won’t wrap everything up. There will always be more thread to leave unraveled, so there’s some place to go. What I can say about the end…I wouldn’t say a cliffhanger. There will be a new chapter that will be open. All we can say about it is, “I want to see where that goes.” I feel like we leave it in a place where there’s potential to continue on with the storyline. It’s a nice, interesting way to end it, but not end it. I think fans will be like, “That’s fitting. But now I really want to see where the rest of this continues to go.” It’s a perfect ending, I think, for where we are.
The War Between The Land and Sea
Finally, a new Instagram post from Russell T. Davies promising “thrills, deaths, chases, fish, and seven seas of danger” reveals table reads have begun for The War Between The Land and Sea. Can you make out any Doctor Who stars in the photo?
