The creator behind Marvel's Netflix series Luke Cage has shared his hopes of the characters making their MCU debuts, now that the show is officially leaving the streamer.

Luke Cage showrunner and executive producer Cheo Hoadri Coker has expressed his concerns over what will happen to the superhero series after it is removed from Netflix, given that it will no longer be available on the platform from March. In a series of tweets this week, he considered what the future might hold for Luke Cage and how the characters could return.

"Rewatching Luke Cage while I can on Netflix," Coker wrote in the first tweet of his lengthy thread addressing the series. "They're going to do what they do. It's theirs. I just hope they don't sit on it for years to allow for an easier reboot, or re-air it with a different mix, or the N-Word muted. I'd love to do commentary tracks, or the original credits."

Rewatching Luke Cage while I can on Netflix. They're going to do what they do. It's theirs. I just hope they don't sit on it for years to allow for an easier reboot, or re-air it with a different mix, or the N-Word muted. I'd love to do commentary tracks, or the original credits

Netflix's Marvel TV shows are now all prefaced with a removal notice, which states that "this show is available until 1st March." This brief warning is not only presented at the beginning of Luke Cage but also Daredevil, Jessica Jones, The Punisher, Iron Fist, and The Defenders, leaving a window of just a few days before these titles are removed from the streamer.

"Regardless of whether or not I'm asked back, I really hope they keep Mike [Colter] as Luke and Simone [Missick] as Misty, and everybody else as everybody else," Coker added in another tweet, speaking of Luke Cage's future at Marvel Studios. "It's kinda like Bond. There might be another Bond, but I got to write for Sean Connery, Lois Maxwell and Ursula Andress."

Additionally, Coker reflected on the show's production, sharing lots of little-known facts and behind-the-scenes tidbits, including details of the original credits that featured Luke jogging to Bill Withers' "Harlem," and plenty of other moments that ended up on the cutting room floor. He also gave props to the cast and crew who helped to elevate the episodes.

"The best scene I've ever written in my life, hands down, was in 'Code Of The Streets' on the roof with Mahershala, Theo Rossi, Warner Miller, Alfre Woodard, and Rob Morgan. I remember watching it and I forgot I wrote it. They took it to another level," he said, though he admitted that he had "so many favorite scenes" throughout the series.

"Writing for Mike, Simone, Alfre, Theo, Mahershala, Reg E Cathey, Rosario, Ron Cephus Jones, Frank Whaley, Mustafa Shakir, Thomas Q, Gabrielle, Karen Pittman, Jeremiah Craft, Sean Ringgold, Curtiss Cook, Latanya and so many others was such a joy," he added in his commendations, which also included shoutouts for director Paul McGuigan and Lucy Liu.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for Spider-Man: No Way Home and the Hawkeye series.

Last year, Marvel regained the live-action rights to Jessica Jones and The Punisher from Netflix, meaning that all of the Marvel characters Netflix previously held the live-action rights to, including Daredevil, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, reverted back to Marvel and opened the door for some of those characters to appear in MCU projects.

Recently, Charlie Cox reprised his role as Matt Murdock for a cameo in Spider-Man: No Way Home, while Vincent D'Onofrio made an appearance as Kingpin in the Disney+ show Hawkeye. There hasn't been any news concerning the return of other characters from Netflix's Marvel shows, but Cox believes there's at least more Daredevil and Kingpin in the MCU's future.

LEGO has reportedly partnered with BioShock and Borderlands publisher 2K to develop a series of LEGO sports games.

VGC reports that the partnership will produce several games including a football/soccer game developed by Sumo Digital, the developer of Sackboy: A Big Adventure and Team Sonic Racing.

It also said an open world LEGO racing game is already in development from NBA 2K and WWE 2K developer Visual Concepts, matching previous reports of the developer advertising jobs for a game of the same description.

This also aligns with Visual Concept's new Twitter bio, which reads: "NBA 2K, WWE 2K, a new AAA game that will blow your mind."

It wouldn't be the first time LEGO has displayed interest in an open world racing game either, as Forza Horizon 4 received a LEGO Speed Champions expansion, and the track-based LEGO Racers was released in 1999 for N64 and PlayStation.

The new partnership between 2K and LEGO allegedly comes as the company's previous exclusivity deal with TT Games - developer of LEGO DC Super-Villains, LEGO Star Wars, and so on - supposedly comes to an end.

Aside from the Forza Horizon 4 expansion, LEGO games have generally followed the same formula for the last 15 years, with only a handful of games like LEGO Dimensions and LEGO Worlds breaking the mould.

IGN said one of the franchise's latest releases, LEGO DC Super-Villains, was "good" as the game "is a unique twist on the aging LEGO game premise."

The next confirmed game, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, portrays all nine mainline films from the Star Wars series and even includes new creatures based on existing LEGO pieces.

For fans seeking more LEGO than game, however, the company recently announced a Horizon Forbidden West Tallneck set featuring an Aloy minifigure.

The hit action-RPG Nier: Automata is being made into an anime.

Announced today by developers Square Enix during the game’s Fifth Anniversary Livestream, the adaptation will see the Japanese videogame become a TV anime series.

A brief teaser trailer gives us a glimpse of the animation style. Along with the trailer, Square Enix also revealed an image of 2B along with her Pod companion robot:

According to a translated official statement, the story sounds as though it hews close to the original game. Humans have fled to the moon in the face of the "overwhelming force" of machines life forms, and combat android 2B has been sent to recapture the planet.

Aniplex, the studio responsible for Fullmetal Alchemist and Sword Art Online is said to be involved in the production of the Nier: Automata anime.

The original Nier: Automata is set during a proxy war between alien-created machines and human-made androids, vying for control of planet Earth. The story follows the tales of combat android 2B, scanner android 9S, and rogue prototype A2 – requiring multiple playthroughs to unlock the full story.

It was released on February 23, 2017, to resounding critical acclaim. IGN’s own review said: “Nier: Automata is a crazy, beautiful, and highly entertaining journey full of nutty ideas and awesome gameplay. It may not include the most sensical story or compelling characters, but its frenzied combat -- coupled with beautiful visuals and a stunning soundtrack – make it too much fun to pass up.”

Although the game was considered to be one of our top 25 PS4 titles, the PC version was met with some criticism – especially its Steam version, which received a slew of fixes last year, including 4K UI textures, improved cut scenes, and more.

The upcoming Blade reboot just added Krypton star, Aaron Pierre.

According to Deadline, the 27-year-old British actor will co-star alongside Mahershala Ali in the upcoming reboot of Marvel’s vampire hunter franchise.

Known for his role as Dev-Em in the Man of Steel prequel, Krypton, Pierre also recently starred as the rapper Mid-Sized Sedan in the M. Night Shyamalan movie, Old.

It’s currently unknown which role Pierre will take. The Blade reboot will see Mahershala Ali take over from Wesley Snipes as the half-vampire vampire hunter.

Although the film’s plot is currently being kept firmly under wraps, it’s also thought that Marvel’s Black Knight will appear in the movie after he was approached by Blade during a mid-credits scene in Marvel’s Eternals.

Played by Kit Harrington, the Black Knight was last seen reaching for his iconic Ebony Blade, and as Blade himself seemingly intervenes, it feels like a team-up waiting to happen. Director Bassam Tariq has already teased that Marvel takes “big swings”.

“I didn't think [Blade] was going to happen, just to be very honest,” he said. He also hinted that he has a clean slate when working on the reboot. “I think the reality is there is no Blade canon, you know?” he added. “If you ever read the comics, they're always changing… Unfortunately, the [comic series] never lasted that long."

As well as the addition of Aaron Pierre, it looks as though Delroy Lindo has joined Blade in an unknown role. Meanwhile, original Blade Wesley Snipes responded to Mahershala Ali’s casting.

Need a refresher course on all things Blade? Check out our history of Marvel’s day-walking vampire hunter. And if you’re wondering how Blade will fit into the MCU, here’s what we think will go down.

Blade will star Mahershala Ali, Delroy Lindo, and Aaron Pierre. Bassam Tariq will direct the movie with a script from Stacy Osei-Kuffour, based on characters created by Gene Colan and Marv Wolfman.

Guerrilla Games has released its first post-launch patch for Horizon Forbidden West, which fixes several gameplay, graphics, and quest bugs – and stops the game crashing as much.

Version 1.05 doesn't fix all known issues within the game, as Guerrilla acknowledged in a Reddit post that it's still working on some of the visual problems players have reported – but it does address some.

Two gameplay fixes have been made for the Second Chance skill and the camera jumping to random angles when using certain weapon techniques.

Several glitched quests have also been fixed, including the main quests Reach for the Stars, The Eye of the Earth, Cradle of Echoes, and The Sea of Sands, alongside a handful of side quests, errands, and world activities.

Several general fixes have been deployed as well, including images incorrectly sharpening in HDR mode, the HUD flickering when looting, Aloy's jittering when climbing, and Petra's teleporting in the Chanscrape brewery.

Some issues that the developer is aware of but has not addressed yet, it said, were the "high priority" graphical issues regarding shimmering, sharping, and screen saturation; some players experiencing infinite load screens to the Melee Puts; Aloy being blurry in Photo Mode; and an issue in Reach for the Stars where Aloy can't interact with a carcass, blocking progression.

While patch notes can often be a dry affair, Guerrilla opted to include a bit of humour in its post, saying "a rogue Tallneck that would sometimes change the direction of its route has been disciplined," and "NPCs that seemed to suffer from insomnia and would gather in large groups at night in settlements should act more naturally now."

The problems don't appear to affect the game's overall enjoyability too much as IGN said the PlayStation exclusive was "amazing" as "Horizon Forbidden West is an absolute blast and fantastic showcase for the power of the PS5."

Be sure to check out our guide as well for the best place to start in Forbidden West, the most powerful skills to acquire, the most important things the game doesn't tell you, and more.

The full notes can be viewed below:

Valve has released a new tool that will let you see exactly which games from your Steam Library will be compatible with the Steam Deck.

Those interested in seeing which games Valve's upcoming handheld gaming PC will be able to run can head over to the Steam Deck Compatibility page and log in with their Steam account to see if their Steam Library games are Deck Verified, Deck Playable, Unsupported, or Untested.

Deck Verified games will be "fully functional" right out of the box, Deck Playable games will work but “might require extra effort to interact with or configure,” Unsupported means a game is currently not functional on Steam Deck, and Untested means Valve simply hasn’t checked the game for compatibility yet.

As an example, the games in my Steam Library that are Deck Verified are Vampire Survivors, Stick Fight, Disco Elysium, Half-Life 2, The Messenger, Return of the Obra Dinn, South Park: The Stick of Truth, Stardew Valley, Portal 2, Sonic Generations, Super Meat Boy, FTL, and Left 4 Dead 2.

My Deck Playable games include The Forest, Among Us, Before Your Eyes, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Final Fantasy VII, Divinity: Original Sin 2, Civilization VI, Valheim, 7 Days to Die, Loop Hero, Path of Exile, Kerbal Space Program, Pillars of Eternity, The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition, Antichamber, Don't Starve Together, Mafia II: Definitive Edition, and Command & Conquer: Remastered Collection.

My Unsupported games are Lost Ark, Duck Game, New World, Half-Life: Alyx, Scavengers, and Bright Memory: Infinite. Lastly, I currently have 78 untested games in my Steam Library.

Valve notes that the Steam Deck review team is "testing more games every day, working our way through the Steam catalog."

After record-low viewership for the 2021 Oscars, the Academy is changing things up for 2022. THR reports that the presentation for eight award categories will be prerecorded at the Dolby Theatre and edited into the live broadcast.

The categories that will be prerecorded are as follows:

• Documentary (Short Subject)
• Film Editing
• Makeup and Hairstyling
• Music (Original Score)
• Production Design
• Short Film (Animated)
• Short Film (Live Action)
• Sound

In a letter sent to the Academy's members, Academy President David Rubin said this decision was made with the television audience in mind. After last year's low viewership, Rubin wrote that the Academy needs to, "increase viewer engagement and keep the show vital, kinetic, and relevant."

Still, all awards categories and acceptance speeches will be featured on the live broadcast. It's likely that the prerecorded awards will be trimmed down to save time, as the purpose of the move is to adhere to a tighter schedule for the broadcast, with the goal of hitting the Best Picture announcement right at the three-hour mark. The Academy tried a similar model in 2018 that it immediately abandoned.

The Academy Awards is also introducing a new level of fan participation for this year's event. The Oscars will host a new fan poll allowing Twitter users to vote for their favorite movie of 2021. The movie fans vote for doesn't have to be a nominee at the Academy Awards, meaning any movie can take home the title. Maybe Spider-Man: No Way Home will take this award, and Kevin Smith won't have to complain about the snub any longer.

Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes are set to host the 94th Academy Awards on March 27, 2022, at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. The ceremony will be broadcast live on ABC at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET.
