Javier Bardem, Chloë Sevigny, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, and Cooper Koch headline the solid, and I’d guess on this turning heads once more this Fall 2024.

We assume that’ll be the case with Senna, a brand new restricted collection based mostly on the well-known Formula 1 racing driver whose legacy continues to shine vibrant at present. With a solid from throughout (representing the various nationalities discovered on an F1 grid), this new collection is epic in scale and depicts Ayrton’s dominance on observe and his off-track life, too.

All we all know to date concerning the plot of season 2 is that it’ll comply with Gi-hun, who has deserted plans to journey to the US and start a excessive stakes chase.

A frequent contributor to What’s on Netflix, Emily Horgan, referred to the Skydance Animation deal late final 12 months as a recreation changer, dubbing the studio Pixar 2.0. The first mission from that new relationship will come out later this 12 months, and given the caliber of expertise, it ought to completely ship.
Directed by Vicky Jenson (Shrek, Shark Tale), this follows a princess who has to avoid wasting her household and kingdom following a spell solid on her dad and mom, which turns them into monsters.

Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia returns to the director’s chair for the sequel, and Milena Smit and Hovik Keuchkerian are confirmed to star. I don’t know a lot about what the sequel has in retailer for us, and that’s precisely how I wish to hold it, given the surprising twists and turns are why I fell in love with the primary entry within the first place.
