The Last of Us and Star Wars isn’t enough for The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal, and it seems that the actor would happily switch out of the Beskar and trade Mandalore for the MCU. The Mandalorian launched Pascal into the stratosphere, and he has since become not just a household name but one of the most popular performers in the world. The show, created by showrunners Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau, was phenomenally well-received, spawning an entirely new branch of Star Wars storytelling some have termed the MandoVerse. Fans will be reunited with Din Djarin in March when the third season of The Mandalorian airs on Disney+. The actor already teased big things, including a Luke Skywalker-level…

The saddest way that Dave Bautista exits the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is also the best way that Marvel Studios can fix their biggest Drax the destroyer mistake. Nine years after he joined the MCU via James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy film, Bautista confirms that his upcoming outing as Drax the Destroyer will also be his last. With plot details about Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 still under wraps, it’s difficult to say what his final fate will be, but the threequel offers Marvel Studios the opportunity to make up for their biggest blunder when it comes to handling Drax’s…

After assuming the titular role in the acclaimed MCU sub-franchise, Letitia Wright is offering fans an optimistic, yet realistic update about Black Panther 3. Directed by Ryan Coogler, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, the much-anticipated follow-up to 2018’s Black Panther, wrapped up Phase 4 in November 2022. The sequel had its work cut out for it after Chadwick Boseman’s unexpected passing in 2020, but the filmmakers were able to come up with an emotional narrative that not only honors the legacy of the actor and his iconic character, T’Challa, but also expands its world further with the introduction of Namor and the Talokanil. Similar to many…

While Moon Knight Season 2 is still unconfirmed for Disney+, rumor has it that the series will return before one of the next two Avengers movies in Phase 6 of the MCU. Out of all the Disney+ series that have premiered or have been announced thus far, almost none of them are as uncertain as Moon Knight in terms of continuing into future seasons. Star Oscar Isaac even denied the rumor that Season 2 of Moon Knight was in development in a recent interview on the topic, even though he’s had “some specific conversations” about where he wants Marc Spector to go in future seasons. Although its stars and crew have denied that Season 2 is in the…

Marvel Studios Producer Nate Moore revealed which two X-Men he’s excited to see join the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), one of whom he’s already expressed interest in. Despite gaining ownership over the Fantastic Four and X-Men in 2019, only the former was announced to be officially in development. Moore mentioned that fans might have to wait “a few years” until they see the X-Men in the MCU. So while the group didn’t appear in Phase 5 and likely won’t in Phase 6 either, that doesn’t mean the MCU is devoid of mutants. After all, Namor recently made his debut in the Black Panther sequel, declaring himself a mutant. However, when asked in an interview about which Black superheroes…

After the release of James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way Of Water in the last month of the previous year, the franchise showed the world how a sequel, more than a decade later, can still possess such a powerful punch as the original did. The film is now on its way to reaching the destination of $1.5 Billion in less than a month, something that was hoped from the sequel and it delivered on that open and then some. James Cameron with the cast of Avatar: The Way of Water at the film’s premiere in London With the release of the film, fans were greeted…

In 1974, scientists sent a message containing the location of the Earth in the solar system, our DNA structure, and other relevant details in space. In 2001, we received a response that has gone unnoticed by everyone. In an effort to discover intelligent alien life, Carl Sagan sent a transmission known as the ‘Arecibo’ message into space via radio waves. The message addressed to intelligent extraterrestrial beings was the most powerful radio transmission ever transmitted to space by humanity. By comparison, the signal sent into space was a million times stronger than a typical television broadcast. Aimed at a group…

Koko, likely the world’s most famous gorilla, has died.Koko the gorilla who mastered sign language, raised kittens and once playfully tried on the glasses of the late actor Robin Williams, has died. She was 46. The Gorilla Foundation says the western lowland gorilla died in her sleep at the foundation’s preserve in California’s Santa Cruz mountains on Tuesday. The gorilla is famous for being able to express her emotions through sign language, even mourning the death of celebrity friend Robin Williams. Koko’s capacity for language and empathy opened the minds and hearts of millions of people. “Her impact has been…

Mecca, Saudi Arabia is a place where Muslims go on pilgrimage every year. This pilgrimage, called Hajj, is one of the five sacred pillars of Islam. Located in the center of the holy site is the Grand Mosque of Al-Masjid al-Haram. On the white background of the church stands out a giant cube-shaped stone structure covered with kiswa black silk fabric embroidered with elaborate gold threads. This special building is called Kaaba, built of granite, 15.2 m high, 10.7 m wide, 12.2 m long with only one gate made of pure gold in the southeast. Inside, the floor is marble…

A pod of around 230 pilot whales has stranded off the western coast of Tasmania, Australia. A statement provided by the Tasmanian Department of Natural Resources and Environment revealed the extent of the stranding, suggesting “about half of the animals are alive.” A post on the Parks and Wildlife Service Facebook shows an aerial photo of dozens of stranded pilot whales along a sand flat in an area known as Macquarie Harbour. The department notes a team of experts from the state’s Marine Conservation Program, which attends to stranding incidents, is assembling rescue gear and heading to the area. It…

The so-called Gray Aliens – short men with large heads and a frail little body, are considered the most famous type of aliens. It is they who most often appear in the stories of abducted people. Who Are Gray Aliens? They are humanoids, that is, humanoid creatures, and there have been many theories from ufologists in an attempt to explain who they are and why they look so similar to people and at the same time so different. There is even a completely bizarre theory explaining that a large head, black large almond-shaped eyes, a triangular face, a nose in the…

Dave Bautista officially concluded his time playing Drax The Destroyer following the conclusion of filming the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.  3, and as recent quotes from him indicate, he’s relieved to be moving on from the role. The actor has noted that he doesn’t want Drax to be his legacy, suggesting he wants to be remembered for his other notable roles. Time will tell what the future holds for Bautista, but if Drax did end up being his “legacy,” it’s a pretty damn good one given he’s one of the MCU’s greatest characters. There are a multitude of performers who…

Jesus’ alien heritage came to light as the result of joint U.S. and Israeli archaeological digs over many years. The purpose of the digs was to locate and recover holy relics that had been lost over time. The search was extensive, starting in Israel and moving through Western Europe. The long search, which had unearthed nothing up to that point, ended in Scotland, with the greatest archaeological find in history. The discovery is believed to have been made near Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland. What archaeologists found was the Cross of Calvary. The very cross on which Jesus had been crucified.…

What would we do if we found an Earth-like planet with intelligent life that is 500 years behind in technology and advancements? What if we find this alien, quasi-tech civilization, we humans develop some kind of faster-than-light technology so we can go visit,  Star Trek style ? How would we behave? It sounds like a fun thought experiment, but it’s not really a question, but rather a whole nested set of questions about how to find extraterrestrial life, how to determine the presence of alien intelligence, how to determine the nature of that intelligence, and how we will study or even study…

The case of the Ilkley Moor alien is one of the most debatable cases of alien abduction ever recorded in the United Kingdom because of the concerns surrounding the event. At odds is the wide-spread unbelief in alien abductions and the two very damning facts purporting it: the Ilkley Moor abductee was a police officer, expected to be an expert eyewitness, and the photograph of what he claims is the entity he encountered. Police officer Alan Godfrey stated that he came across the being while crossing the Moor, in the county of Yorkshire on the morning of December 1rst, 1987.…

Ant-Man may not be as big a deal as Iron Man or Spider-Man, but the microscopic superhero has become a major player in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first Ant-Man film introduced the character and garnered a stellar box office return (via Box Office Mojo) plus impressive reviews (via Rotten Tomatoes). Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang has since seen his fair share of action in the MCU, taking part in “Captain America: Civil War,” “Ant-Man and the Wasp,” and “Avengers: Endgame.” The quirky hero with a heart of gold returns to the fold, but this time he’s taking his talents and family to…

The head of the Canadian covert UFO Magnet project, Wilbert Smith, worked as a senior radio engineer for the Canadian government’s Department of Transportation in the late 1940s and 50s. It was thanks to him that radio communications between Canada and the United States were established at that time. Few people know that Mr. Smith convinced the Canadian government to set up a UFO surveillance program that ended up finding UFOs that he said were unearthly. Wilbert Brockhouse Smith Asking the Americans about the existence of UFOs, he received from them the answer that the US government has put this…

The reports of alien abductions have become a worldwide phenomenon all of which require research to prove the validity of the individual making the report. There have been at least forty known reports since 1961. The phenomenon is one that is not easily understood, requires extensive and continued research and may or may not be validated claims. Should this be a reality there are a suspected high amount of unreported claims. So the question is what exactly occurs during the experience and how do those who experience an abduction cope? According to those who have reported the abduction, it will…

David A. Weintraub, Professor of Astronomy at Vanderbilt University During your lifetime, astronomers will likely uncover solid evidence for the existence or the extreme rarity of life in the universe. In my new book Religions and Extraterrestrial Life: How Will We Deal With It?, I discuss the discoveries of planets around other stars, the possible discovery of life on those planets in the very near future, and the potential impact of those discoveries on our many different religions. Climb on board this 21st century astronomy discovery train, folks, because the ride will be profound and mind-blowing. Why now? In the…

It depends how you define “breathe” and “butts.” Everyone knows that most mammals breathe through the mouth and nose. Frogs, meanwhile, can breathe through their skin. But what about turtles? How do these hard-shelled critters get oxygen? You may have heard a strange rumor that turtles can breathe through their butts. But is this true? Technically, turtles do not breathe through their derrières. That’s because turtles don’t really have “butts”; instead, they have a multipurpose opening known as a cloaca, which is used for sexual reproduction and egg laying as well as for expelling waste. However, they do engage in…

Is it the ring of fire? Or somewhere else? There are around 1,350 “potentially active volcanoes worldwide,” according to the U.S. Department of the Interior(opens in new tab), and just over one-third of them are known to have erupted at some point during recorded history. But where are most volcanoes located? If you wanted to see an active volcano, where would you have the greatest chance of finding one? “Most of the planet’s volcanoes are located underwater, along the 65,000-km-long [40,000 miles] mid-ocean ridge system,” Ed Llewellin, a professor of volcanology at Durham University in the United Kingdom “About 80% of the Earth’s magma…

Snakes have specialized teeth to inject toxins into prey. A snake’s lightning-quick bite is the perfect way to inject venom into prey. Aiding and abetting this violent attack are the long, curved fangs snakes have evolved to dose their next meal with venom — toxins that hurt, disable or even kill their victim. But which came first: the venom or the fangs? Unlike some other animal fangs, snake fangs are highly adapted to act as a delivery system for toxins. For example, many other fanged animals, like wolves or cats, use their fangs for stabbing and ripping meat. But snake fangs have grooves…

Timbers from the hull of a 16th-century ship have been found in a flooded quarry in southeastern England. Much of the wooden hull of a rare Elizabethan-era ship has been found in a flooded quarry in southeast England, hundreds of yards from the nearest coast. Few vessels from this time have survived, so an analysis of the find may shed new light on a key period in seafaring, when the country rapidly expanded its trading links throughout Europe through its control of the English Channel. “To find a late-16th-century ship preserved in the sediment of a quarry was an unexpected…
