Ben Stiller is currently in talks to play Jack Torrance in Ivo van Hove's stage adaptation of Stephen King's horror classic The Shining.

Variety has confirmed reports of Stiller's potential involvement in The Shining theater production, reiterating that the actor is in early talks to star in the lead role of Jack Torrance, a struggling writer and recovering alcoholic who is hired as an off-season caretaker for the historic Overlook Hotel, where supernatural forces start to influence his sanity.

The Shining theater production is expected to adhere more closely to King's original 1977 novel than Stanley Kubrick's seminal 1980 film adaptation, which famously starred Jack Nicholson in the lead role alongside Shelley Duvall and Danny Lloyd. Additional casting for the stage show has yet to be announced, though rehearsals are set to begin this fall.

Renowned theater director Ivo van Hove, who recently revived West Side Story for the stage, is reportedly leading the creative team on the production. He will be joined by Tony winner Simon Stephens, who is penning the adaptation, and producers Sonia Friedman and Colin Callender following their collaboration on Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

The team behind the production are planning to bring the show to London's West End by January 2023, where it will debut before hopefully making a move to Broadway in the future. Stiller has yet to close a deal and agree to these plans, bearing in mind his own schedule. Most recently, he stepped behind the camera to helm Apple TV+'s Severance.

However, Stiller has taken to the stage before. He starred in the 2011 Broadway revival of John Guare's House of Blue Leaves with Edie Falco and Jennifer Jason Leigh, having previously played a supporting role in the original 1986 Broadway production of the play, which garnered four Tony Awards, including Best Direction for Jerry Zaks.

Major changes are coming to Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone this week in the Season Two Reloaded update.

A new 12v12 mode is coming to Vanguard, while Warzone's Rebirth Island is getting its biggest update since launch, as revealed in a blog post on the Call of Duty website. The update is coming to Vanguard on March 22 and Warzone on March 23.

The 24-player Vanguard mode adds a large map set in the Alps, where players will fight to cross snowy terrain on foot or in new vehicles (a motorbike, squad vehicle, and tank) as they aim to capture each base and win the game.

Vanguard is also receiving a refreshed ranked system in Season Two Reloaded, where the best 250 players in the world will enter their own skill division above Challenger. New ranked rewards, including weapon camos, charms, and sprays will be rewarded at the end of each season.

In Warzone, several points of interest are being altered on Rebirth Island including Stronghold, and a brand new one called Dock is also being added.

Three modes are also being revamped that will be featured in a weekly Rebirth playlist. Resurgence is receiving a solo mode where the Rebirth meter is already activated, meaning players will start with an extra life.

Payload is also back as a 12 versus 12 player experience, allowing up to three full squads to steer their truck through the map. The final new mode is Blood Money, a variant of Plunder where players are guaranteed a significant amount of cash even if the defeated operator doesn't have any.

A number of new weapons, camos, and skins will also be available when Season Two Reloaded begins, including a Snoop Dogg operator.

It’s official – Christina Ricci is back in the Addams Family… but not in her iconic role.

According to Variety, the 42-year-old actress, who previously starred as Wednesday Addams in the hit family films, is joining the cast of Netflix’s Wednesday.

Directed by Tim Burton, Wednesday is a coming-of-age series about Wednesday Addams as she heads off to become a student at Nevermore Academy where she will take on monsters, learn to use her psychic powers, and solve a mystery involving her very own parents.

The live-action show stars Jenna Ortega as Wednesday Addams, with Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia and Luiz Guzman as Gomez.

Ricci has now joined the cast in a mystery role.

However, while details of her role are being kept firmly under wraps, it’s understood that she won’t be playing an older version of Wednesday on the upcoming show.

Wednesday is described as a sleuthing, supernatural mystery with the titular character uncovering a 25-year-old mystery involving her parents. The eight-episode series also has Wednesday save the local town from a monstrous threat while juggling new friendships as she tries to fit in at her new school.

The Addams Family was originally conceived by cartoonist Charles Addams in 1938 and became hugely popular in the ‘90s due to the release of The Addams Family and Addams Family Values. Both films starred Christina Ricci as Wednesday Addams, with Raul Julia as Gomez, Anjelica Huston as Morticia, and Christopher Lloyd as Uncle Fester.

Jenna Ortega stars as Wednesday Addams alongside Catherine Zeta-Jones and Luis Guzman. They’re joined by Hunter Doohan, Georgie Farmer, Moosa Mostafa, Emma Myers, Naomi J. Ogawa, Joy Sunday, Percy Hynes White, Thora Birch, Riki Lindholme, and Jamie McShane.

Tim Burton will direct the series, which was created by Al Gough and Miles Millar.

Wednesday will debut on Netflix sometime in 2022.

The Suicide Squad star Daniela Melchior may join Fast & Furious 10.

According to The Wrap, the 25-year-old Portuguese actress is in talks for the upcoming Fast and Furious sequel.

She recently starred in her breakout role in The Suicide Squad as The Ratcatcher – a DC antihero who communicates with an army of rats under her control. It’s currently unknown which role she will take in Fast & Furious 10.

Alongside Melchior, Jason Momoa has joined the cast and is said to be the film’s villain.

“I'm gonna go do 'Fast 10,' that's gonna be fun... it's fun,” he said. “I get to play the bad guy, which I haven't gotten to do for a while. Now, I get to be the bad boy. A very flamboyant bad boy.”

Details about the film’s plot are currently under wraps. However, Vin Diesel will be returning in Fast & Furious 10 alongside Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, and Sung Kang.

Unfortunately, it looks as though one name who won’t be joining Fast & Furious 10 is Dwayne Johnson, who declined Vin Diesel’s invitation for the upcoming sequel.

Although details are scarce, it looks as though Fast & Furious 10 could end up being a two-parter, with Vin Diesel teasing both “Fast & Furious 10 parts one and two”. It’s unknown how that will work, but it’s also been said that the franchise could come to an end with its tenth installment.

Whether or not that happens remains to be seen.

In the meantime, we’ll be eagerly awaiting details of the upcoming sequel and Daniela Melchior’s role within it.

Vin Diesel stars as Dom Torreto alongside Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Sung Kang, Jason Momoa, and Daniela Melchior.

Justin Lin will direct the film, with both Diesel and Lin on board as producers.

Fast & Furious 10 will debut in theaters on May 19, 2023.

Casey Hudson, the co-creator and director of the Mass Effect Trilogy, looks to once again be returning to space as his new studio Humanoid Studios has confirmed it is working on an "all-new science-fiction universe."

The news comes via Humanoid Studios' updated website, where it states that "our current project is a multi-platform AAA game, focusing on character-driven narrative in an all-new science-fiction universe."

While that alone may not 100% mean the game is set in space, the website features four pieces of content art (which you can see below) that teases an adventure that looks to very much take place among the stars.

The images show a massive skull of... something being approached by people in spacesuits, a beautiful mountainous region with spacecraft flying by, a bar that overlooks a moon, and two more people in spacesuits loading up containers of some sort.

"By combining excellence in the arts with innovative technologies, videogames have the extraordinary power to transport you to new worlds of adventure," Hudson wrote for the website. "That's what first inspired me to make games, and it's at the heart of what we do at Humanoid Studios."

The website also puts front and center that it believes "people do their best creative work when they feel safe and supported."

"We believe in the power of small, agile teams, and a flat organizational structure, where everyone is empowered to make decisions and help drive the project vision," The 'Our Team' section reads. "We hire great people, empower them with the best tools and a supportive environment, and provide them the creative freedom to explore their fullest potential."

Humanoid Studios was announced by Hudson in June 2021 and it is a Canadian company with offices in B.C. and Alberta. It also offers "a flexible work environment combining from-home, in-office, and remote work so that developers can work where they feel happiest."

After five years, the Nintendo Switch finally allows users to create folders of games called groups.

This new feature was added in Nintendo Switch's Version 14.0.0 update alongside improvements to Bluetooth audio volume and lets users create up to 100 groups with a max of 200 games per group.

The latest #NintendoSwitch update is now available, including a new feature to create groups for software on the console.

More information: https://t.co/RuNTfgEKBl pic.twitter.com/UFiwuOc1fw

— Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) March 22, 2022

To create a group, you first need to scroll all the way to the right and select All Software. Once there, you will press the L Button to view games by groups. The first time you do this you will be prompted with a pop-up that will let you create your first one. Every time after, you will see your groups displayed

You can name a group, rearrange the titles in it, and sort where it sits in your list of groups. Unfortunately, these groups can only be seen once you head to All Software and can't be put on the homepage.

As for the Bluetooth Audio settings, this new update allows for the volume of Bluetooth audio devices to be adjusted by either the Switch or the control buttons on the device itself. The volume displayed on the console will reflect the proper volume even when changing it on the device, and the maximum volume for some Bluetooth audio devices has been increased.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Sarah Michelle Gellar has said she would "vote Zandaya" to be the one to star in a potential reboot of the series.

As reported by Bloody Disgusting, Gellar told Evan Ross Katz, the author of a new book called Into Every Generation a Slayer Is Born: How Buffy Staked Our Hearts, that she would "vote Zendaya" to star in a reboot of the series that aired from 1997-2003.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of Buffy, and Gellar thought it'd be the perfect time to share who she believes would be a dream casting for the role.

The book also looks to celebrate this milestone and was released last week. The official synopsis says that "Evan Ross Katz explores the show’s cultural relevance through a book that is part oral history, part celebration, and part memoir of a personal fandom that has universal resonance still, decades later.”

Zendaya is coming off some major roles in Spider-Man: No Way Home as MJ, Euphoria as its star Rue Bennett, and Dune as Chani.

While there has been no official annoucement of a Buffy reboot, there have been discussions about it at Fox and beyond. In 2018, it said that the studio was open to a reboot when creator Joss Whedon was ready to give it the green light.

Since then, abuse and unprofessional behavior allegations have come out against Whedon, and two sources claim that Gellar herself had a strained relationship with him and did not want his name to be spoken around her.

Snoop Dogg will soon join Call of Duty: Warzone, Vanguard, and Mobile as a playable operator.

All the details on Snoop's arrival come by the way of a Call of Duty blog, where it confirms the first chance to play as the legendary rapper and entrepreneur will be in Season 3 of Call of Duty: Mobile through a special Lucky Draw on April 1, 2022.

This Lucky Draw version of Snoop has him "decked out head-to-toe in a 24K gold embroidered outfit" and includes a "new signature weapon based on a fast-firing Legendary SMG that's gold-plated and diamond-encrusted." Oh, and the weapon's death animation has been compared to the "lights of a mini-concert" that gets "even flashier" when you kill more people.

On April 19 (yes, just one day before 4/20), the Snoop Dogg Operator Bundle will become available in Warzone and Vanguard. This bundle, which is different from the Mobile bundle, includes ten items - three of which are exclusive to Vanguard - and a full Operator progression track. These items include Weapon XP for Snoop's weapon, three alternate outfits, and other cosmetic items.

There are still more details to come for this Snoop Dogg Operator Bundle, and all is promised to be revealed before April 19.

"The D O Double G is back in Call of Duty and this time I’m in the freakin’ game! Excited to be working with the COD team to bring some fly features for you all to enjoy," Snoop said. "It’s dope….. y’all can play as me and get these sick items that have Snoop written all over them. Check it out.”

This isn't the first time Snoop Dogg has been part of the Call of Duty universe, as he was the star of Call of Duty: Ghosts DLC that let you swap out the normal multiplayer announcer for Snoop.

For more, check out the time when Snoop Dogg streamed Madden, ragequit after 15 minutes, and then left his stream running for seven hours. Additionally, read all the details regarding his new role as part of FaZe Clan's board of directors.
