    X-Men Reboot WITHOUT Magneto & Gambit?! | MARTINI PARATORE talks TRENDING Sep 04, 2026

    Marvel Studios' X-Men reboot may be moving forward without two of the franchise's most popular mutants! A new report claims Magneto and Gambit will NOT appear in the upcoming MCU X-Men movie, raising some major questions about Marvel's plans for its new mutant era.

    On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss why Marvel might choose to leave Magneto and Gambit out of the first X-Men movie, whether that's actually the right decision, and which characters could take their place on the team.

    Marvel has already started assembling its new generation of mutants with Professor X, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Rogue and Storm, while Mister Sinister and Emma Frost are expected to play major roles. With Magneto reportedly sitting this one out — and Wolverine also expected to be absent — could Marvel be deliberately trying to give audiences an X-Men story completely different from the Fox movies?

    And what does no Gambit mean for Rogue? Could Marvel be saving that relationship for a sequel or another MCU project?

    Plus, new Rogue actress Inde Navarrette is already lining up her next major project. Following her X-Men casting, Navarrette has joined the upcoming sci-fi movie The Waffle House Index from Apple Studios and Plan B.

    We also discuss the first reactions to Practical Magic 2. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are finally back together for the long-awaited sequel, but the initial social media response appears decidedly mixed. Can nostalgia and the original movie's cult following still turn Practical Magic 2 into a theatrical hit?

    The big question today is whether Marvel Studios is making the right call by launching its X-Men franchise without Magneto and Gambit. Magneto has dominated many previous X-Men movies, so giving the character a break could allow Marvel to focus on villains we haven't seen nearly as much on the big screen. But leaving Gambit out when Rogue is already part of the team could be a much more controversial decision.

    We break down Marvel's potential strategy, who could still join the team, and how the MCU can make its version of the X-Men feel different from everything that's come before.

    If you're a fan of X-Men, Magneto, Gambit, Rogue, Wolverine, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Professor X, Marvel Studios, MCU, Practical Magic 2, Sandra Bullock, or Nicole Kidman, this episode is for you!

    Can AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY SAVE THE MCU?! Russo Brothers Respond! Sep 03, 2026

    Avengers: Doomsday started filming with an unfinished script?! The Russo Brothers are opening up about the massive challenge of bringing Marvel Studios' next Avengers movie together, including why production began before the screenplay was completely finished. On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss whether this should actually concern MCU fans or if the Russos' filmmaking process could ultimately make Doomsday better.

    Joe and Anthony Russo are once again handling an enormous Marvel ensemble, this time bringing together characters from the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and other corners of the MCU. The directors also address the pressure surrounding the movie and whether Avengers: Doomsday is supposed to "save" Marvel after the MCU's recent ups and downs.

    Can the Russo Brothers recreate the magic of Infinity War and Endgame? How will Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom factor into everything? And can Doomsday successfully bring together this many characters while still delivering the emotional moments fans expect from an Avengers movie?

    The biggest question today is whether Avengers: Doomsday beginning production without a finished script should worry Marvel fans. The Russos have successfully handled enormous MCU productions before, but Doomsday may be their biggest challenge yet. With Doctor Doom, the Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men all potentially colliding, the pressure is enormous.

    We're breaking down what the directors actually said, whether the unfinished screenplay is a legitimate red flag, and why the Russos believe their evolving approach to the script can actually help the movie.

    If you're a fan of Avengers: Doomsday, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr., Russo Brothers, Avengers: Secret Wars, X-Men, Fantastic Four or the latest movie and television news, this episode is for you!

    Florence Pugh headed to the Bond Universe?! Sep 02, 2026

    🚀 Our Show Is Trending is launching on Kickstarter September 22nd!

    Could Florence Pugh be joining the James Bond universe as Moneypenny? A new rumor claims the Thunderbolts*, Avengers: Doomsday, and Spider-Man: Brand New Day star is being eyed to lead The Moneypenny Diaries, a potential James Bond spinoff series for Prime Video. On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss the rumor, whether Florence Pugh would be a good fit for Moneypenny, and what this could tell us about Amazon MGM's larger plans for the future of 007.

    With the search for the next James Bond continuing, could Amazon be preparing an entire connected Bond universe beyond the main movies? And if Florence Pugh does become Moneypenny, would she also appear alongside the new 007 on the big screen?

    Plus, we finally have an update on the long-awaited ThunderCats movie. Director Adam Wingard says the project is still alive, and a new draft of the script was completed earlier this year. After years of development, could Lion-O, Cheetara, Panthro and Mumm-Ra finally make their way to the big screen?

    Tom Cruise is also weighing in on the future of Paramount and Warner Bros. Cruise says he's confident in the promise that a combined studio could deliver 30 theatrical movies per year. Is that realistic, and could a renewed focus on theatrical releases be exactly what Hollywood needs?

    And Christopher Judge, the voice of Kratos in the modern God of War games, explains why he turned down the opportunity to play Kratos in live action. With Dave Bautista now taking on the role, Judge discusses the intense physical demands that ultimately kept him from becoming Kratos on screen.

    Today's show covers some potentially huge developments across James Bond, ThunderCats, God of War, and the future of Hollywood. Florence Pugh potentially entering the world of 007 could be the first sign that Amazon has much bigger plans for James Bond beyond the next theatrical movie.

    We're also discussing whether ThunderCats can finally escape development and make it to the big screen, Tom Cruise's optimism about the future of theatrical movies, and why Christopher Judge ultimately decided against playing Kratos in Amazon's live-action God of War.

    # James Gunn EXTENDS DC Studios Contract! What Does It Mean for the DCU? | Kristian Harloff Show

    **James Gunn is staying at DC Studios!** Gunn has reportedly extended his contract as co-head of DC Studios, giving us a much clearer picture of who will be guiding the future of the **DC Universe**. On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss what the extension means for **Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Supergirl**, and the larger DCU plan moving forward.

    With major questions surrounding **Batman: The Brave and the Bold**, the future of Wonder Woman, and the next phase of DC Studios projects, does Gunn's extension signal that Warner Bros. remains confident in his long-term vision? And how could the changing landscape surrounding Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount impact those plans?

    Will GTA 6 become the biggest video game of all time?** The hype surrounding **Grand Theft Auto VI** continues to reach unbelievable levels, but can Rockstar Games actually deliver a game that lives up to more than a decade of expectations? On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we discuss **GTA 6**, the massive expectations surrounding its release, and whether it has the potential to become the biggest entertainment launch ever.

    From the success and longevity of **GTA 5** and GTA Online to the enormous anticipation surrounding Vice City, Jason and Lucia, Rockstar has set an incredibly high bar. Could Grand Theft Auto 6 break sales records and completely dominate gaming when it finally arrives? Or has the hype become almost impossible for any game to satisfy?

    We also have some major **DC and Marvel news** to discuss. A new rumor claims **The Flash director Andy Muschietti is no longer directing Batman: The Brave and the Bold**, creating even more questions about the future of James Gunn's DCU Batman.

    **Avengers: Endgame Encore** is also being described as "required viewing." What has Marvel Studios changed, and could the new version contain something important for **Avengers: Doomsday, Doctor Doom, and Secret Wars**?

    Plus, early **Clayface** box office tracking could spell trouble for DC Studios, **Cody Rhodes** fuels MCU speculation after appearing at Marvel Studios HQ, and **Gal Gadot** has a message for the next Wonder Woman.

    ### Stories For Today:

    * **MAIN TOPIC: Will GTA 6 Become The Biggest Game Ever?** * UPDATE: Rumor — Andy Muschietti Is "Not Doing" Batman: The Brave And The Bold * Avengers: Endgame Encore Is "Required Viewing" * Clayface Early Box Office Tracking Could Be More Bad News For DC Studios * Is Cody Rhodes MCU Bound? * Gal Gadot's Message For The New Wonder Woman

    The expectations for **GTA 6** are unlike almost anything we've seen in gaming. Can Rockstar create another generation-defining Grand Theft Auto experience and potentially deliver the **biggest video game launch ever**? We're discussing the hype, expectations, and whether GTA VI can actually live up to them.

    Kristian and Kris Carr will break down the biggest movie and entertainment news of the day, led by a major update on the future of DC Studios. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the Warner Bros. Discovery/Paramount merger, a new report says James Gunn and Peter Safran are expected to remain as co-heads of DC Studios regardless of the outcome. What does that mean for the future of the DCU, Batman, Superman, and the projects currently in development?

    Plus, the search for the next James Bond is heating up! Callum Turner, Jacob Elordi, and Paul Mescal are reportedly among the names on the Bond 26 shortlist, but another actor may have emerged as the new frontrunner. Who should replace Daniel Craig as 007, and what direction should the franchise take with its next Bond?

    We also have a big Spider-Man: Brand New Day box office battle this weekend. Can Coyote vs. ACME or Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars finally knock Tom Holland's Spider-Man out of the top spot?

    Then, The Penguin star Cristin Milioti addresses whether Sofia Falcone could return in The Batman Part II, and Ridley Scott confirms he's developing another Alien prequel that would bring back Michael Fassbender's David.

    Today's show has major updates for DC Studios, James Bond, Spider-Man, The Batman Part II, and Alien.

    Kristian Harloff breaks down some potentially massive **DCU Batman** news as a new report claims **Batman: The Brave and the Bold** has been put "on hold" while Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount work through their potential merger. What does this mean for **James Gunn's Batman**, and could DC Studios introduce its new Dark Knight in another project before his solo movie?
