Star Cast: Ben Schwartz, Idris Elba, Jim Carrey, Keanu Reeves, Colleen O’Shaughnessey, and Lee Majdoub

Director: Jeff Fowler

What’s Good: Sonic 3 leans on the more superhero aspects of the Sonic franchise and leaves behind most of the human roles in the background, as it should be.

What’s Bad: The humor can be hit or miss, and while Carrey is outstanding, his brand of humor feels quite dated.

Loo Break: There is very little room for rest, maybe the start of the second act, but the film moves at a great pace.

Watch or Not?: This is a great family film, and for Sonic fans, it is a must-see.

Language: English (with subtitles)

Available On: Theatrical release

Runtime: 110 Minutes

User Rating:

The Sonic franchise is one of the most important ones in the video game medium, and it has, since its beginnings, been at the forefront of it, thanks to the creation of one of the most endearing mascots for any brand. Since its creation, Sonic has gathered quite a following, and it feels surreal to be the third entry in what is now a very successful film franchise for the Sega mascot. This third outing is the best yet, with director Jeff Fowler confident enough to go all out.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie Review: Script Analysis

Past Sonic films have suffered from being too much like other family films that combine live-action actors with digital creatures. Some of these films are genuinely awful, like the Smurf films. The first two installments of Sonic on the Big Screen also had a bit of that flavor, as the script forced the story to give importance to the human characters, which was a mistake because no one was paying a ticket to see them.

However, in the last third of the second film, Fowler realized the franchise’s potential by delivering powerful action sequences that felt like something from the games. So, this third film leans on that sensation given by the third act of the second film, and it is much better for it. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles and their relationship as a team is the core of the story, and while some human characters appear here and there, they are pushed to the back as they always should have been.

Shadows, the new boy in town, also gets a ton of screen time, solid backstory, and character development. Most importantly, it keeps him in the cool zone by giving him many powerful moments. Overall, the plot is quite cliché, and you can see each of the story beats coming from a mile away. Yet, it feels like an improvement over the other films because the protagonists are precisely who we want to see in that position, and everything else has been filtered out.

The dialogue can sometimes fall into cringe territory thanks to a constant flow of pop-culture references that will date the film too much as time passes. There are also a couple of comedic sequences by Jim Carrey that feel too dated.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie Review: Star Performance

Jim Carrey is the film star; of course, he is the biggest name tied to a live-action character, in this case, Dr. Robotnik, and he does well at giving one of his signature performances. Carrey plays to characters this time, and the gimmick works because, while similar, the characters are also quite different. It feels right to see such a comedy legend back in action, even if it is for a paycheck gig.

However, the voice actors playing the actual main characters, Schwartz, Elba, O’Shaughnessy, and Reeves, shine in this film. Their performances are great, and while Reeves’ voice is too similar in tone to the one he uses in the video game Cyberpunk 2077, you get used to it pretty fast, and Shadow becomes a perfect addition to the character roster. Everyone does an excellent job, including Elba, who also shines with some great speeches, even when his character, Knuckles, is definitely more in the background than the others.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie Review: Direction, Music

Fowler is also one of the movie’s stars; even if he doesn’t appear on-screen, you can feel that the first-time director of the first Sonic film has grown quite a lot in this Sonic journey. The film feels countless times leaner and meaner than the previous films, and Fowler’s confidence is evident when the film waits no time to throw us into the action in sequences that feel effortless and entertaining.

Several action sequences in the film explore the anime side of the Sonic franchise, and each one is film-right, epic, and has lots of cool moments. Sonic fans will be screaming and cheering as the movie delivers reference after reference from the games, but never in an intrusive way. The epic factor is quite big, especially thanks to Tom Holkenborg, who delivers a pretty epic score to level up everything in the film.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie Review: The Last Word

Sonic 3 can still feel dumb, cringy, and cliché at times, but it is also a very solid family film, filled with a story that works, characters that undergo change and development, and amazing action sequences that are entertaining to watch and respectful of everything that the source material has offered fans for decades. Sonic 3 is the best Sonic film to date, but with another sequel surely on the way, it seems it won’t hold that title for very long.

The year 2024 was a miracle for the horror-comedy Superhero Universe, with Stree 2 and Munjya together bringing 734.5 crore at the box office. Meanwhile, the four films of the horror comedy Universe, Stree, Bhediya, Munjya, and Stree 2, have together earned 930.01 crore. But now, Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock films have planned the ultimate timeline for the Universe!

Horror Comedy Universe To Bring 8 Films!

The production house has announced the upcoming slate of this massive Universe with 8 upcoming films, including Stree 3, Bhediya 2, Maha Munjya, and 5 other films!

These 8 films include three new worldsChamunda, Shakti Shalini, and Thama along with the 3 existing worldsStree, Bhediya, and Munjya! These six worlds will come together for an epic battle of two films concluding the Horror Comedy Superhero Universe.

2025 – 2028 – Horror Comedy Timeline

The eight horror-comedy films will arrive between 2025 to 2028. Starting from Thama on Diwali 2025 and Shakti Shalini on December 31, 2025. This will be followed by Bhediya 2 on August 14, 2026, and Chamunda on December 4, 2026.

The year 2027 will arrive with the next set of horror comedies – Stree 2 on August 14 and Maha Munjya on December 24. Finally, the horror comedy Universe will conclude with an epic battle of two parts – Pehla Mahayudh on August 11, 2028, and Doosra Mahayudh on October 18, 2028.

The Starcast

While the Stree world includes Rajkummar Rao, Shraddha Kapoor, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurrana, the Bhediya world includes Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon, and Deepak Dobriyal. Thama will bring Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna to this Universe, and Chamunda is expected to bring Alia Bhatt to this Universe. Munjya includes Abhay Verma and Sharvari. The Starcast and the theme for Shakti Shalini are yet not known.

Themes

The films, as per the tradition of the horror-comedy Superhero Universe, will bring more horror folklore, blending them with situational comedies that would tickle your bones. While Stree 3 would take forward the story behind Sarkata, Bhediya 2 would further solve the mystery of the shape-shifting Bhediya portrayed by Varun Dhawan, a glimpse of which has been offered in Stree 2, already. The best part of this Universe would definitely be the Avengers-style Mahayudh, which would bring all the horror-comedy superheroes together. And who knows, we might finally know who Stree is!

As the years ahead promise even more thrills, action, and larger-than-life stories, one thing is clear- Maddock Films isn’t just setting the bar—they’re defining the future of Indian cinema.

Game Changer Trailer Review
Game Changer Trailer Review (Photo Credit – YouTube)

The trailer of the Ram Charan starrer Telugu political action-thriller Game Changer is finally out now. The film is one of the most anticipated movies at the onset of 2025 and stars the superstar in a dual role. Here is our trailer review for the film.

Game Changer Trailer Review

The trailer showcases Ram Charan playing a father-son duo. He plays IAS Ram Nandan, a no-nonsense officer who is not afraid to lock horns with corrupt politicians and businessmen to expose their black monies and corrupt affairs. We are also shown parallelly how Nandan’s father, Apanna, also fought for the water resources in his village. While Apanna is shown to be married to Anjali’s character, Kiara Advani plays the love interest of Ram Nandan. However, Nandan soon comes face to face with a corrupt politician, Mopidevi (SJ Suryah), who proves to be his biggest nemesis.

One of the main highlights of the Game Changer trailer is Ram Charan’s fiery and magnetic screen presence. The superstar is powerful in both the roles, and some of his scenes are bound to evoke loads of cheer and whistles. He is intense during the action sequences but has a spunk and charming aura during the romantic and comedic sequences. The actor nails the emotional scenes too. Watch out for the “Raa Ki Raa, Sir Ki Sir” scene, which involves a showdown between Charan and Suryah’s characters.

However, some of the dialogues and action sequences in the Game Changer trailer are extremely over-the-top and do not invite the required emotions. The visuals, especially the soundtracks in some of the stills, appear to be too shoddy. We do not see Ram Charan’s chemistry with any of the supporting characters being fleshed out effectively. Kiara Advani’s character seems to be reduced to the song and dance sequences with Anjali’s still looking a little promising. SJ Suryah’s antagonist act tends to become too loud in some scenes. We can just hope that these dismal aspects do not appear to be too jarring in the movie.

The movie has been helmed by Shankar. Apart from Ram Charan, Kiara Advani, Anjali, and SJ Suryah, Gamer Changer also stars Samuthirakani, Srikanth, Sunil, and Nassar in pivotal roles. The movie will be released on January 10, 2025.

Game Changer is one of the most-awaited Indian films this year, and Ram Charan fans are excited to see their beloved actor storm the big screen after Acharya’s failure. The film is in the news for different reasons, and one of them is the massive budget of the songs. Surprisingly, the total cost of the songs is much higher than the entire budget of Charan’s blockbuster Rangasthalam. Keep reading for a detailed report!

The upcoming Telugu political action drama is set for a grand release on January 10, 2025. The film marks the first collaboration between renowned director Shankar and Ram Charan. Considering the grand style of filmmaking of Shankar, everyone is excited to see how he presents the actor on the big screen and though his Indian 2 was a disaster, inside reports are positive for his upcoming magnum opus.

Over the years, we have heard about Shankar spending big money on his songs, and Game Changer is no exception. It is learned that there are four songs in the film, and the total cost of them is a whopping 75 crores. If calculated, each song carries an average cost of 18.75 crores. No doubt, these songs will be a treat for eyes on the big screen, but still, the cost is too much to believe.

Before RRR, Ram Charan tasted a big success in the form of Rangasthalam in 2018. Apart from the box office success, the film was also critically acclaimed, and over the years, it has built a massive following. Unlike Charan’s recent releases, this one was made on a moderate budget and cost around 60 crores.

So, if a comparison is made, the songs of Game Changer alone are 25% more expensive than the entire Rangasthalam film, which is really crazy.

Meanwhile, Game Changer also stars Kiara Advani, Samuthirakani, and SJ Suryah in key roles. It is expected to mint big moolah during the Sankranti festive season.

Ram Charan and Prabhas have never worked together on a film. However, they have always kept a friendly relationship over the years. They have never let any competition affect their bond.

These are significant stars of the same era; they have never let rivalry come between them. In an old interview with DNA, Prabhas was asked about his thoughts on competing with actors like Ram Charan and Allu Arjun. He said competition is a normal part of any industry. However, people should not take it personally.

Prabhas also said that the Indian film industry is vast. He believes it is more important to promote Indian cinema as a whole rather than focusing on regional differences.

Ram Charan is preparing for his next movie, Game Changer. This will also feature Kiara Advani. After that, he will work on a film with director Buchi Babu Sana titled RC16. Janhnvi Kapoor plays the lead actress role in the movie.

Khushbu Sundar On Doing Annaatthe With Rajinikanth: “I Wish I Hadn’t Done It” https://www.koimoi.com/south-indian-cinema/khushbu-sundar-on-doing-annaatthe-with-rajinikanth-i-wish-i-hadnt-done-it/ https://www.koimoi.com/south-indian-cinema/khushbu-sundar-on-doing-annaatthe-with-rajinikanth-i-wish-i-hadnt-done-it/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 12:44:12 +0000 https://www.koimoi.com/?p=1130403 Some movies do not help an actor’s career. They may harm their image. Khushbu Sundar recently talked about such a film in her career.

Khushbu Sundar shared that she regrets acting in Annaatthe, which starred Rajinikanth. In an interview, she was asked about any films she wished she had not been part of. She explained that while her Hindi filmography is limited, she has many regrets about some Tamil films.

Khushbu mentioned that Annaatthe is a recent example. She said, “The role didn’t turn out like it was sold to me.” She further explained that there was no real pairing with Rajinikanth for her.

Sundar did not directly name the movie in the interview. However, she revealed that initially, the film was supposed to have her and Meena as the two heroines. Khushbu admitted that she agreed to the project because no other actress was paired with Rajinikanth at first.

As the film progressed, Rajinikanth’s character suddenly became a heroine. Khushbu said a new character was added. She felt her character became too exaggerated and unrealistic.

Khushbu said her character was originally meant to be happy, comical, and fun-loving. However, when she saw the film during the dubbing session, she felt disappointed by the final result.

Annaatthe was released in 2021. It was directed by Siva, the director of Kanguva. The film is an action drama. It tells the story of Kaalaiyan, who is a sarpanch from Thanjavur, played by Rajinikanth. Kaalaiyan is very protective of his younger sister.

When his sister elopes with her lover and moves to West Bengal, Kaalaiyan goes to find her. He discovers the challenges she faces from a business rival. Kaalaiyan decides to take action and helps her from behind the scenes.

Annaatthe also starred Keerthy Suresh as Rajinikanth’s sister. Nayanthara played his love interest. The film also featured actors like Jagapathi Babu, Prakash Raj, Soori, and Pandiarajan in important roles.

Justin Baldoni’s legal feud with Blake Lively has been fueled beyond proportions, with the actor accusing her of trying to block him and his Wayfarer Studios team from attending the premiere of It Ends With Us in August.

According to a bombshell $250 million lawsuit filed against The New York Times, Baldoni claims that Lively initially refused to allow him to attend the event, allegedly seeking to diminish his role as director, executive producer, and lead star of the film.

Justin Baldoni and His Entire team Were Segregated from the Main Cast

The lawsuit paints a picture of a tense and humiliating scene, with Justin’s team and their families reportedly segregated from the main cast, excluded from the exclusive after-party, and forced to organize their own event at additional cost.

Even Baldoni’s time on the red carpet was cut short, and he claims that he and his guests were shuffled into a separate theater after Lively’s departure.

The ‘Five Feet Apart’ movie director’s legal filing further claims, “Not only had Lively stolen the Film, but she also robbed Baldoni and his team of any genuine opportunity to celebrate their hard work.”

Justin Baldoni Blamed Both Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively for Trying to Sideline Him

Baldoni’s legal filing also suggests that Lively’s actions were part of a larger effort to sideline him and diminish his contribution to the film.

Alongside the allegations against Lively, the actor also names her husband, Ryan Reynolds, in the lawsuit, claiming that Reynolds had a hand in attacking his career and personal life.

“Baldoni and [Wayfarer Studios] grew increasingly fearful of what Lively and Reynolds were capable of, as their actions seemed aimed at destroying Baldoni’s career and personal life,” the docs claim, per Page Six.

According to the lawsuit, Reynolds confronted Baldoni over supposed “fat-shaming” of Lively and even went as far as pressuring Baldoni’s agent to drop him as a client.

Reynolds’ rep and Baldoni’s former agency, WME, have both denied these accusations, calling the claims false.

Lively’s legal team, meanwhile, has responded by standing by her previous lawsuits, insisting that Baldoni’s claims are based on a misunderstanding of the facts.

When will Disha Vakani return to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah? is the most-asked question among Indian television audiences. While the actress has been absent from the show for years now, fans are still hopeful about her highly anticipated return. Unfortunately, for all such fans, there’s heartbreaking news: producer Asit Kumarr Modi himself has given up trying to bring Disha back to the show. Keep reading for a detailed report!

Those who have enjoyed TMKOC from its beginning know that Disha was an important part of the show. In fact, she was one of the main reasons why the show enjoyed popularity among a wider audience, especially females. Everyone loved the way she played the innocent yet funny character of Daya.

For those who aren’t aware, Disha Vakani went on maternity leave in September 2017, and since then, she hasn’t returned to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. So, it’s been a long seven years since she’s been missing from the show, but the makers haven’t replaced her yet. But now, after convincing the actress for so long, Asit Kumarr Modi has lost all hope.

Talking to News18 Showsha, the Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah producer said, “It is very important to bring back Dayaben because I also miss her. Sometimes circumstances change in such a way that certain things happen, and it gets delayed. Sometimes, the story gets prolonged. Sometimes, some big events come. There were elections in 2024, there was IPL and then the World Cup matches, the rainy season. It gets delayed because of some reasons.”

He added, “I am still trying. I believe Disha Vakani can’t be back. She has two children. She is like my sister. Even today, we have a very close relationship with her family. My sister, Disha Vakani, has tied a Rakhi to me. Her father and brother are also a family to me. You worked together for 17 years, and it became your extended family.”

While Modi has given up trying, he hopes that god will do some miracle and Disha Vakani will return to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. He said, “It is difficult for her now (to return to the show). For women, life changes after marriage. Working with small children and managing the house is really a bit difficult for them. But I am still positive. I feel somewhere that god will do some miracle, and she will return. If she comes, then it will be a good thing. If, for some reason, she does not come, then I will have to bring another Dayaben for the show.”

Asit Kumarr Modi further shared that currently, auditions are going on for the role of Dayaben, and whenever the actress is locked, they’ll plan a grand welcome.

The craze for Pushpa 2 isn’t going down in the Hindi market. In fact, on New Year’s Day, it witnessed a tremendous jump and came closer to the 800 crore mark in India. Overseas, the film has slowed down considerably, but that isn’t restricting it from achieving extraordinary numbers on a daily basis. Overall, the magnum opus has come closer to surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan’s lifetime global collection. Keep reading for a detailed collection report of the Hindi-dubbed version!

The run of the Hindi version has been extraordinary from the beginning, and despite spending almost a month in theatres, it is showing no signs of exhaustion. Varun Dhawan’s Baby John’s failure has been a blessing in disguise for the film, as it has retained considerable screens and remained the first priority of moviegoers.

After becoming the first Hindi film to enter the 700 crore club at the Indian box office, Pushpa 2 (Hindi) is cruising towards the 800 crore club really quickly, and that feat will be accomplished this Friday. Amid this, it has managed to amass a staggering 792.75 crore net in 28 days. Including taxes, it equals 935.44 crore gross.

The updated numbers from overseas are yet to be reported, but as per the last update, Pushpa 2 (Hindi) had amassed 115 crore gross. Combining this with the Indian gross, the worldwide box office collection stands at a huge 1050.44 crore gross in 28 days.

From here, the Allu Arjun starrer aims to surpass Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan very soon to become the third highest-grossing Hindi film at the worldwide box office. For the unversed, Pathaan earned 1069.85 crore gross globally. So, the Pushpa sequel is just 19.42 crores away from crossing Pathaan. Dangal (2059.04 crore gross) and Jawan (1163.62 crore gross) are expected to remain unbeaten.

Worldwide collection breakdown of Pushpa 2 (Hindi):

  • India net- 792.75 crores
  • India gross- 935.44 crores
  • Overseas gross- 115 crores
  • Worldwide gross- 1050.44 crores

Note: Box office numbers are based on estimates and various sources. Numbers have not been independently verified by Koimoi.

The action-thriller film Rifle Club is another film which has been making the Malayalam film industry proud. The movie follows a steady pace in terms of box office performance. Let us look at its box office performance on the 14th day.

Rifle Club Worldwide Box Office Day 14

On its 14th day, the Vijayaraghavan starrer saw a growth of around 91.89%. The movie earned around 71 lakhs whereas it had garnered 37 lakhs on its 13th day. The India net collection of the film now stands at 13.33 crore. At the same time, the gross collection comes to 15.72 crores. The movie’s worldwide box office collection now comes to 22.62 crores. The film is now slowly inching towards 30 crores.

The Vijayaraghavan starrer has already emerged as a success because it was mounted at a scale of less than 10 crores. With its current India net collection of 13.33 crores, the film has already managed to recover its entire budget and earn good profit. However, it is also facing a tough competition from the likes of UI, Marco and Viduthalai Part 2. It will be interesting to see whether Rifle Club manages to withstand this stiff competition and continues to go solid at the box office.

The film however, also needs to see an increase in its day-wise collection. The collections have mostly gone below 1 crores which has also slowed down the pace of the film. This can be done with a more positive word of mouth.

About The Movie

Apart from Vijayaraghava, Rifle Club also stars Anurag Kashyap, Dileesh Pothan, Vani Vishwanath, and Hanumankind in the lead roles. The film has been directed by Aashiq Abu. At the same time, the music for the film has been composed by Rex Vijayan.

Note: Box office numbers are based on estimates and various sources. Numbers have not been independently verified by Koimoi.

The Drishyam film series is among India’s most famous crime thriller movie series. Not just the original Drishyam, featuring Mohanlal, but its Hindi version, starring Ajay Devgn, has been a blockbuster hit. Fans of both movies are currently waiting for Drishyam 3. While the second movie did not leave much for a sequel, fans have complete faith in the makers to create a great story, just like they did with Drishyam 2.

A potential sequel is in the news again after a recent interview with Mohanlal. Known for his iconic portrayal of Georgekutty in the series, he has sparked excitement among fans by addressing the much-anticipated Drishyam 3 and the possibility of a crossover with Ajay Devgn’s Vijay Salgaonkar from the Hindi adaptation. But how feasible is this crossover, and what does Mohanlal have to say about it?

Mohanlal confirms that Drishyam 3 is in the pipeline

During a recent interview with India Today, Mohanlal spoke candidly about the plans for Drishyam 3, reassuring fans that the story is developing. However, he does not know much about what the makers are doing for the story. “I have no idea. It’s in the process, in the pipeline. It is not that easy to bring out a good sequel. It is a big challenge,” Mohanlal continued, “Part three is a big headache for them, the director, and all of us. But we are in the process. It will happen someday; I also pray for it to happen.”

The interview also hinted at an even more significant cinematic experience that could bring together the parallel narratives of the Malayalam and Hindi versions. When asked about a crossover with Ajay Devgn, Mohanlal said, “I have no idea. Let it happen. I will also pray for that.” The idea of having the two characters meet each other is excellent. However, it will be a creative nightmare for the makers because having two characters with the same stories meet each other is almost impossible.

As fans await official announcements, Mohanlal’s comments have reignited excitement about the future of the Drishyam franchise. Once Mohanlal’s version is out, the fans of Ajay Devgn can expect Drishyam 3 soon as well.

There used to be a time when fans had to wait months before their favorite movies on television. However, nowadays, the wave of OTT (Over-the-top) platforms has taken over, where fans do not have to wait much to watch their favorite stars from the comfort of their home. Further, fans get to stream longer formats like web series, which otherwise was not possible in cinema.

As streaming services continue to rise in popularity, many wonder about the future of movie theaters. Bollywood and Hollywood star Priyanka Chopra Jonas has given her viewpoint. The actress is no stranger to the dynamics of storytelling across mediums. From movies to television shows to now OTT with Citadel, Chopra has always brought her A-game to whatever platform she has entered.

Priyanka Chopra thinks theaters will always be special

Priyanka Chopra recently discussed her views on the future of cinema during an interview with the Hindustan Times. For her, going to the movies is not just about watching a film but about being part of a collective emotional journey, something that OTT platforms can’t replicate.

“I think it will always be special. There’s nothing quite like entering a darkened theatre and watching a movie, not just with friends and family, but in a room full of strangers, all connected by the viewing experience. The big screen’s scale, sound, and immersive atmosphere make it a special experience. I don’t think the magic of movie theatres will ever fade,” Chopra said.

She further said that technological advancement will help cinema rather than damage it, “ “The advancements in technology ensure that the cinematic experience is only getting better. From 3D to IMAX, and now immersive audio, there has been continued innovation in the theatre experience, which will keep bringing people back.” Jonas also praised OTT as a platform – “I think that both the big screen and OTT are incredible to have! We live in an incredible time where we can access entertainment in every way possible, 24/7.”

Despite her appreciation for OTT, Priyanka believes that theaters hold a special place in cinematic culture. So, while fans are cherishing OTT as a great option, traditional cinema theaters are going nowhere, at least for the next few years.

The news of Selena Gomez getting engaged to Benny Blanco may have shocked the world, but the couple has been basking in the glory of their newly changed status. Since then, reports have detailed their proposal, blossoming romance, the diamond engagement ring, and more. With a wedding set to happen sooner or later, there are a lot of questions around.

Apart from the regular wedding planning, there is also the debate of whether she would make him sign a prenuptial agreement. It wouldn’t come as too much of a surprise since Selena is a billionaire. While her music career has been stagnant, her brand, Rare Beauty, has raked in a lot of revenue, making her a billionaire in her early 30s. Here’s what we know of the prenup rumors.

Will Selena Gomez Make Benny Blanco Sign A Prenup?

According to Life & Style magazine, “Selena adores Benny, and she’s got zero doubt in her mind that they’ll last. She wouldn’t have said yes to his proposal otherwise. But the source added that at the end of the day, the actress has to protect herself, her assets, and the hard work she has put into her successful brand, her image in the industry, and her reputation.

Regarding Rare Beauty, the source said, “It’s a business Selena built from scratch and is justifiably proud and protective over.” The report noted that Benny has no issue signing a prenuptial agreement before they get married. The source alleged, “He gets it and wouldn’t dream of challenging Selena on this issue at all,” referring to the music producer.

They claimed that Benny was also successful in his career, so he wouldn’t “be dependent on Selena to support him.” The source stated that it was one of the things the pop star loved most about him. For the unversed, Selena and Benny got engaged in December 2024 and shared the news through social media, specifically the singer’s Instagram account.

Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco’s Engagement

She shared some photos from the proposal and captioned it, “Forever begins now.” The first was an image where the dazzling ring glimmered on her hand. The next photo featured a smiling Selena looking at the ring while the background revealed what else was a part of the intimate proposal. Blankets, a picnic basket, and Taco Bell boxes in the backyard summed it up. The two also celebrated the occasion with champagne.

The following photos included more of Selena wearing the ring and the newly engaged couple cuddling in their closet. Colleagues and friends sent them love and best wishes in the comment section. While it is yet to be confirmed if the rumors of a prenuptial agreement are true, the former Disney star and the producer have been basking in the engagement glow.

Did Tom Holland Set An Incredibly High Bar for Spider-Man 4? https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/did-tom-holland-set-an-incredibly-high-bar-for-spider-man-4/ https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/did-tom-holland-set-an-incredibly-high-bar-for-spider-man-4/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 10:33:21 +0000 https://www.koimoi.com/?p=1130293 Tom Holland just tossed a web of high expectations for Spider-Man 4, and let’s be real—he’s not playing around. Read on for information.

After swinging through the multiverse and delivering a No Way Home (2021) that had fans in a frenzy, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man has left some big shoes to fill. And guess what? He’s only coming back if the sequel can top the insane heights set by the last film. “If we can’t find a way to compete with the third one, he’ll swing off into the sunset.” Oh, and there it is—Holland is absolutely serious about retiring Peter Parker if the story isn’t a massive leap forward. No pressure, Marvel.

While Spider-Man: No Way Home had us all picking our jaws off the floor with its multiverse madness and epic returns, Holland is ready to raise the bar again. In a time when superhero sequels can feel like reruns of the same story, Tom’s challenging the creatives behind Spider-Man 4 to not just hit the mark, but smash it. The actor’s already laid out his conditions—unless this next film can top the spectacle and heart of No Way Home, he’s out. Mic drop.

The crazy part? Holland hasn’t signed his contract yet. Yeah, after all the web-slinging and multiverse hopping, the actor is still testing the waters. In a conversation about the next film, he casually dropped that “the idea is crazy” and that it would be “a little bit different from what we’ve done before.” Now that’s a huge promise to live up to. Fans are already wondering: can they actually top the multiverse action that gave us Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield in the same movie? Or is it time to pack it up and wrap up Peter Parker’s journey in the MCU?

Could Spider-Man 4 be Peter’s grand finale? Holland’s comment about Spidey “swinging off into the sunset” hints it might be his last ride. If the next film doesn’t deliver, maybe it’s time to hand the web-slinging torch to Miles Morales. With a Miles solo flick on the horizon, Spider-Man fans might see some major shifts. Whatever happens, Spider-Man 4 better blow us away—or it’s curtains for Peter.
