The first day of the month is here, which means that the various streaming services on offer have updated their content libraries, adding slews of new movies and TV shows while also quietly removing many others in the hopes that you won't notice.
A lot of versus movies have failed to deliver on the obvious promises made by their titles, with Zack Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice a recent example. Audiences had been desperate to see the DC icons trade blows on the big screen for decades, but despite the theatrical edition running for 152 minutes, the title characters only battled head to head for a short time before putting their differences aside once they realized their mothers had the same name, a moment that still divides opinion among the fanbase.
Marlon Brando can comfortably be named as one of the greatest actors to have ever graced the screen, not to mention one of the most important influential, who revolutionized how talent approached their roles by becoming the first high-profile Hollywood star to embrace Method acting.
Ruby Rose may have walked away from The CW's Batwoman after one season, but she's hardly been short of work since departing the Arrowverse. The actress has three projects in various stages of development, and first out of the gate is action thriller SAS: Red Notice, which is coming to VOD on March 16th.
With the Skywalker Saga finally complete after nine movies and 42 years, Star Wars has as clean a slate as it ever has before. Sure, the Anthology entries were free to put their own spins on the mythology, but both Rogue One and Solo were directly intertwined with Episodes I through IX in at least a handful of ways.
Once director Jon Watts wraps shooting on Spider-Man: No Way Home, for the first time since signing on to play the role, Tom Holland will no longer be contractually obligated to return as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's web-slinging superhero. Obviously, though, he's definitely going to be back, and even admitted that he's happy to suit up for as long as the studio wants him to, even if Robert Downey Jr. certainly hopes that he's not going to be 37 and still stuck as Peter Parker.
It's only been 48 hours since it was first announced that J.J. Abrams would be rebooting Superman with a script from Ta-Nehisi Coates, but already the rampant speculation has already consigned Henry Cavill's Man of Steel to the history books, when there's no indication that his time under the costume is over, and there's already been a precedent set for him to continue on as the DCEU's resident Son of Krypton.
For a man who dubbed himself 'Franchise Viagra' and then went on to prove it by lending his name to several properties that instantly experienced a huge jump in box office takings, Dwayne Johnson hasn't starred in nearly as many sequels as his reputation would have you believe.
The last few days of the month typically find the list of new additions to streaming starting to wind down before the cycle begins anew on the first of the next one, and February has been no different. Not that we mind, though, with March shaping up to be one of the most stacked months ever for all of the major platforms when it comes to both original and established content.
