Netflix Being Sued Over Black Mirror: Bandersnatch’s Use Of Choose Your Own Adventure

Netflix has had a couple of run-ins with the lawyers of late. First, The Satanic Temple sued The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina over a statue featured in the background of the show (Netflix settled out of court) and now, they've had a suit filed against them by Chooseco, who claim that Black Mirror: Bandersnatch infringes upon its trademark of the phrase "Choose Your Own Adventure" and seeks $25 million in damages.

Richard E. Grant Says Episode IX Will Be The Last Star Wars Movie

When they announced the cast list for Star Wars: Episode IX most people zeroed in on the surprising revelation that Carrie Fisher would be reprising her role as Princess Leia from beyond the grave. However, tucked away in there was a mention that Richard E. Grant would be joining the cast - which for me was incredibly promising news.

I'd assumed he'd make an excellent First Order officer, but a more concrete hint may have come in a recent interview on the Graham Norton Show, where he said:

Chris Pine Teases His Role In Wonder Woman 1984

The revelation that Chris Pine is returning as Steve Trevor in Wonder Woman 1984 made a lot of people scratch their heads in confusion. After all, Trevor heroically and memorably died in the original Wonder Woman. And that's not all. Within the in-universe timeline, we've seen Diana sadly reminisce about Steve and not once did she mention hanging out with him in the 1980s. On top of that, he's just a normal guy, so if he'd miraculously survived the original Wonder Woman, he'd be about ninety years old in 1984.

Netflix Reveals New Bandersnatch Secret To Help Reach Hidden Ending

Audiences have pretty thoroughly scoured Black Mirror: Bandersnatch in order to see every depressing/gruesome/surreal ending to mentally ill computer game programmer Stefan's story. But there's one short ending that Netflix wants to highlight - perhaps because they have the behind-the-scenes viewing information that suggests that this is the least seen part of the show. Via their Netflix UK & Ireland Twitter account, they have instructed viewers:

Disney CEO Wants To Make A Captain Marvel Land

As far as the heads of rapacious IP-guzzling hyper-corporations go, Disney CEO Bob Iger seems like a good egg. At any rate, he's been happy to spearhead a wave of diversity amongst his company's major motion pictures: being particularly proud of last year's Black Panther and the upcoming Captain Marvel. Now, in taking to Twitter to share a 'special look' at Captain Marvel, Iger has gone into just how enthusiastic he is about the project and character, explaining:
