Netflix’s Daybreak: Ending Explained
Warning: Full spoilers for all of Netflix's Daybreak: Season 1 follow...
If you've manage to binge all 10 episodes of Netflix's new nuclear meltdown mayhem series Daybreak (check out our full Netflix's Daybreak review here), you're now fully prepped to dive into the ending with us and analyze how the series is being set up for a Season 2.

Martin Scorsese Now Says Marvel Movies are a “New Art Form”

Watchmen: Damon Lindelof Shares Jeremy Irons Scene Pages from Pilot Script
On the heels of Damon Lindelof's well-received Watchmen sequel series' debut on HBO -- which pulled in 1.5 million viewers -- Lindelof decided to release four pages from the the pilot script he penned, showing us all how the cryptic scene featuring Jeremy Irons, as THAT character, looked on paper.
"I have received a number of queries relating to the interlude from our premiere featuring the tremendous Mr. Irons," Lindelof posted on Instagram. "The gist of said queries, “Uh... cool... but what the f*** was THAT?” These script pages will shed almost no light, but as you are 24 hours from seeing what The Blonde Man is writing, I thought it only fair to show you a bit of my own."

Saturday Night Live got a taste of the smolder as Game of Thrones' Jason Momoa, who can soon be seen on the Apple TV+ series See, popped in as a smarmy "lover of the elderly."
During sketch called First Impressions Court, featuring host Chance the Rapper as Judge Barry, who renders 10-second verdicts based on sketchy appearances alone, Momoa stopped by as gigolo Apollo Benz.

SNL: Chance the Rapper Reports on League of Legends Tournament
Saturday Night Live host (and musical guest) Chance the Rapper brought back his clueless New York Knicks reporter character, Lazlo Holmes, who was last seen in November of 2017 trying his best to cover a hockey game.
This time around, Lazlo was thrown into the deep end of an esports event featuring arena battler League of Legends. Naturally, Lazlo was baffled by just about everything - from being asked his opinion on "Team Echo’s attack strategy" to the amount of female fans flocking to meet iconic player S3X PANDA 99.
You can watch a snippet of the sketch here...

In real life though, actors Jason Momoa and Kit Harington were on hand to help fellow Thrones alum Emilia Clark celebrate her 33rd birthday.
The actress posted this reunion pic to her Instagram, marking the first time Dany's posed with both of her (human) loves...

Thor: Love and Thunder Will “Double Down” on Ragnarok’s Craziness
If you thought Taika Waititi's Thor: Ragnarok -- the movie that arguably made Thor the most fun franchise in the MCU -- was bonkers, then we're all in for a thunderous treat.
Talking to Wired, the director of Jojo Rabbit revealed his larger plans for Thor: Love and Thunder, which is slated for a November 5, 2021 release.
“It’s going to be bigger and louder and more bombastic," Waititi said of Love and Thunder, which will feature Natalie Portman's Jane Foster wielding the title and hammer of the Mighty Thor.
