This week, we’re covering a packed slate of movie, TV, gaming, and pop-culture news. We dig into Dog Stars, Alien: Covenant, GTA 6, Harry Potter, The Social Reckoning, Cliff Booth, Heat 2, The Mandalorian, RoboCop, Xbox, Fjord, The Uprising, Ali G, Avengers: Endgame, 12 12 12, and Unabomber.

Plus, we get into the newly announced Days of Thunder 2, with Tom Cruise returning as Cole Trickle and Anne Hathaway joining the cast for the 2028 sequel.

And we take a look at Resident Evil, including its box-office prospects and whether Zach Cregger's reboot has a shot at becoming the biggest opening in the franchise. Current tracking has climbed as high as a $40–50 million domestic opening, which would set a new franchise record.
