The Twilight Zone’s New Reimagined Series Premieres This April

CBS has announced the premiere date for the new The Twilight Zone. The TV series will debut on CBS All Access, and be exclusive for subscribers.

The Twilight Zone is scheduled to premiere on April 1, and no that’s not an April Fool’s Day joke. Two episodes will be available for subscribers on Monday, April 1, with new ones releasing on a weekly basis starting Thursday, April 11. The new series comes from the mind of Jordan Peele, who is also the host and narrator of the show. His production company, Monkeypaw, is set to produce the series.

Other cast members for the The Twilight Zone include Ike Barinholtz, John Cho, Lucinda Dryzek, Taissa Farmiga, Greg Kinnear, Luke Kirby, Sanaa Lathan, Kumail Nanjiani, Adam Scott, Rhea Seehorn, Alison Tolman, Jacob Tremblay, Jefferson White, Jonathan Whitesell, Jessica Williams, DeWanda Wise and Steven Yeun. A reimagined version of the original The Twilight Zone’s “The Wunderkind” episode is already confirmed for this new series, but details have not yet been released for other episodes.

This new The Twilight Zone follows the format of the original show, which ran from 1959 to 1964. The original series is a collection of short stories, each about a mysterious dimension that its narrator refers to as “not only of sight and sound, but of mind.” Episodes covered a wide variety of supernatural and science fiction events that befell ordinary people, which range from a frantic driver being pursued by a mysterious hitchhiker to a beautiful woman born in a society that values ugly facial features.

Alongside news of the The Twilight Zone’s premiere date, we also learned that Stephen King’s The Stand is set to become an All Access series, while The Good Fight Season 3 also get a release date.

Disclosure: CBS is GameSpot’s parent company.

First Look at Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron Comedy Long Shot

Check out these first images from Long Shot, a comedy starring Seth Rogen and Charlize Theron.

The film, produced by Theron, Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Beth Kono and James Weaver, is directed by Jonathan Levine, known for directing 50/50, a comedy-drama staring Rogen and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. It’s written by The Interview’s Dan Sterling and The Post’s Liz Hannah.

Long Shot follows Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogen), a hard-hitting political writer and Charlotte Field (Charlize Theron), his first crush who is also the current US Secretary of State. After the two reunite, Charlotte hires Fred to liven up her campaign speeches, though Fred’s indiscretions could bring down her campaign. Though not rated, the film aims to redefine “international relations” and will definitely include profanity.

Check Out Dragon Ball FighterZ’s New DLC Characters In Action

Bandai Namco is kicking off a new season of DLC for Dragon Ball FighterZ this week with the release of two new playable characters: Jiren and Videl. The pair will go on sale on January 31, and ahead of their arrival, the publisher has shared a new gameplay video showcasing both fighters in action.

The video, which you can watch above, pits Jiren and Videl against each other in a standard three-on-three bout, giving fans a closer look at each one’s fighting style. Jiren looks like a real powerhouse, knocking Super Saiyan Blue Goku out with ease. Videl, meanwhile, favors close-range combat, and as we saw in her reveal trailer, she can call in Gohan (dressed as Great Saiyaman) for certain attacks.

Jiren and Videl will each retail for the same price as other Dragon Ball FighterZ DLC characters: $5. Both are also included in the FighterZ Pass 2, which costs $25 and grants access to four additional characters, two of whom will be Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta and Broly from the new Dragon Ball Super movie. The remaining two fighters have yet to be announced.

Ahead of Jiren and Videl’s release, Bandai Namco has rolled out an update for Dragon Ball FighterZ across all platforms. This one primarily makes various balance adjustments. You can read the full patch notes on Bandai Namco’s website.

In other Dragon Ball news, Bandai Namco recently revealed the first trailer for its new Dragon Ball Z action RPG. The game is being developed by CyberConnect 2 (Asura’s Wrath, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy) and is slated to launch later this year for PS4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. Bandai Namco hasn’t shared many other details about the title yet, but it will be a retelling of the series and star Goku.

What Star Wars and Marvel Could Learn From Star Trek

Star Trek: Discovery is back in action, its second season promising a serious jump in confidence and quality. But CBS did something interesting with the series in the months leading up to that premiere. Rather than going completely dark until its mid-January launch, the network launched Short Treks, a series of 15-minute one-off specials that would keep fans’ anticipation at bay as the new season approached. Those Short Treks are solid in and of themselves (read our reviews here), but they also present a strong model for other major franchises’ streaming programming. Disney, which has its own streaming service, Disney+, in the works, should take note…

Netflix’s Velvet Buzzsaw Review

This is a mostly non-spoiler review for Velvet Buzzsaw – which premieres Friday, February 1 on Netflix.

Though half-baked as a supernatural horror flick, and indicative of many Netflix films being somewhat mediocre projects made better/elevated by big names (much like Bird Box), Dan Gilroy’s Velvet Buzzsaw is a ghoulish slice of satire dressed up in occasional jump scares and a chaotic swirl of ghost movie cliches.

The talented ensemble – including Jake Gyllenhaal (who gets to devolve into a sweaty obsessive mess, naturally), Rene Russo (in her best role in years), John Malkovich (in his second algorithmic supporting role in a Netflix horror movie in a month), and Zawe Ashton – bring this Robert Altman-style caricature of the modern art scene to life, setting up a cutthroat world that monetizes perception and caters to the super-wealthy and presenting it as a unique hunting ground for a “curse” that rips its way through those involved in selling the macabre art of a recently deceased lunatic.
