Mark your calendars, because moviegoers will get to hear: “May the Force be with you” in theaters once again.
Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, which kicked off the legendary trilogy and franchise, is heading back to theaters just in time for its 50th anniversary. Lucasfilm owner Disney has confirmed a theatrical release is set for April 30, 2027.
A New Hope originally hit theaters on May 25, 1977 and starred Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, Harrison Ford as Han Solo and the late Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia. And the film saw the introduction to one of the most iconic villains of all time, Darth Vader (physically played by David Prowse, with James Earl Jones providing the voice).
Created by George Lucas, the franchise expanded into the early 2000s with prequel films starring Natalie Portman, Hayden Christensen and Ewan McGregor. The sequels began with 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens, featuring Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver and many other spinoffs and TV series.
Last year at Cannes, Lucas spoke about how his original ideas for Star Wars “sort of got lost” after the 2012 Disney deal. Notably, 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story struggled at the box office.
“I was the one who really knew what Star Wars was … who actually knew this world, because there’s a lot to it. The Force, for example, nobody understood the Force,” Lucas said. “When they started other ones after I sold the company, a lot of the ideas that were in [the original] sort of got lost. But that’s the way it is. You give it up, you give it up.”
However, a highly anticipated upcoming project in the franchise is Shawn Levy’s Star Wars: Starfighter, starring Ryan Gosling. That film is also set to hit theaters in 2027, on May 28 of that year.
It’s been three years since Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet got divorced, but when one door closed, another opened for the Aquaman actor. After going Instagram official with his new girlfriend, Adria Arjona, last year, we caught a cute glimpse of what Momoa’s new love life is like with motorcycles obviously involved.
Life is good for Jason Momoa. His latest series, Chief of War, just premiered (which is streaming on your Apple TV+ subscription), and the Hawaiian native just turned 46. But we can’t forget his new relationship with his Sweet Girl co-star, Adria Arjona, and they look like a picture-perfect couple. If you want to know how photogenic the pair is, the Hit Man actress posted a birthday carousel of Instagram pics of her and her BF. Naturally you’ll find motorcycles making a cameo in them:
Top Gun movies and Roman Holiday can make motorcycle outings look romantic, so can Momoa.
Even when the Fast X actor got into a motorcycle accident in 2022, his motorcycle obsession never died. As the two-wheeled vehicles have played a role in his friendship with Lenny Kravitz and spread his obsession onto actor Josh Brolin, it’s no surprise motorcycles would find their way into Jason Momoa’s new romance as well.
After Momoa’s marriage to Lisa Bonet deteriorated, the talented actor was trying to find love in new places. He was reportedly dating Eiza González after his split, but they apparently broke up with a source claiming, “they are in different life stages.” But as People’s insider put it, the two were allegedly not “very serious.” So maybe the Baywatch actor wasn’t in the right place at the time for a serious relationship. This time around, perhaps Adria Arjona could be the one.
Jason Momoa and Adria Arjona have been keeping their relationship private for the most part, but when they go public, you can’t help but gush. The pair looked like they had a lot of fun attending SNL’s 50th Anniversary and even made his scrunchie match his girlfriend’s dress when they were both at A Minecraft Movie’s premiere. Can they be any more adorable?

There’s nothing like Jason Momoa taking his new girlfriend out on a wild ride with a romantic motorcycle outing. I think the three could have something very beautiful together if the two-wheeler potentially contributes to many dates. Make sure to watch Momoa in Chief of War on your streaming schedule now.
Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth, but apparently, for some people, the joy that comes from fun rides and great vibes just isn’t enough. As much has been said about Disney Adults, they are adults after all, and anybody who has been in the theme park world for any length of time has certainly heard stories of people getting up to…adult activities on theme park rides. It turns out actor Dave Franco is one adult who has done just that.

Dave Franco Reveals He Had Sex On Pirates Of The Caribbean
Franco, who stars in the new well-reviewed film Together, recently appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast, where host Alex Cooper asked him what the wildest place he had ever had sex was. The actor revealed an event, at an undisclosed time in the past, where he got a little freaky on one of Disneyland’s classic attractions. He said…
Something may have happened at one point on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. The fucked up part about that is, I think there’s cameras on every inch of that place, but we were pretty covert. We’ll leave it at that.
banned from Disneyland for this particular activity, but it’s certainly possible, so people should beware.
People Having Sex On Disney Parks Rides Is Far From Uncommon
A quick glance at Reddit reveals plenty of stories from both people who have attempted amorous encounters on Disneyland rides, people who have witnessed such things, and the Cast Members who had to deal with it. If nothing else, it confirms that even if you don’t think anybody saw you having sex on the Haunted Mansion, people absolutely did.
Pirates of the Caribbean does appear to be a popular choice for those looking to get busy at Disneyland. It makes some sense. The ride doesn’t have a lap bar or any other seat restraint, and it’s also the longest ride at Disneyland, giving you the most time to do whatever it is you’re going to do. Though it’s also one of the best rides at Disneyland, and you’re going to miss a lot about it if you’re…otherwise engaged.
That said, please don’t have sex at Disneyland. I have to get on that ride after you, and I don’t even want to think about what the previous rider was up to.
First Look Teaser for Hulu’s ‘Tempest’ Korean Conspiracy Thriller Series

“We will brave the tempest and head towards the north star.” Hulu has revealed the first look teaser for a new conspiracy thriller series titled Tempest in the US, also known as The North Star in other countries (based on that opening quote that’s also in the trailer), arriving for streaming in September. Set in Korea, Tempest follows Seo Munju, a former UN Ambassador whose life gets flipped on its head when her husband, a presidential candidate, is assassinated in front of her. To discover the truth behind the attack, Munju takes up her husband’s role, becoming the party’s presidential candidate. With her life now constantly in danger, Sanho, a mysterious mercenary, will step up to keep her safe as her bodyguard. However, with little known about him, can Munju really trust him? Featuring “one of the most impressive international line-ups in a Korean drama to date.” Check out this cast! Tempest stars Gianna Jun, Gang Dongwon, John Cho, Lee Misook, Park Haejoon, Christopher Gorham, Michael Gaston, and Spencer Garrett. The series is also written by the same writer of the script for Park Chan-wook’s Decision to Leave (one of my faves). This is such a slick teaser – just enough in it to make me interested and curious but without giving away anything.
Here’s the first teaser trailer (+ poster) for Kim Hee-won’s series Tempest, direct from Hulu’s YouTube:
Tempest follows Seo Munju, a skilled former diplomat, as she tries to uncover the truth behind an attempt on a presidential candidate’s life. After discovering the candidate was accused of being a North Korean spy, Munju digs into his past, unlocking a Pandora’s box of deception, state secrets and more. Protected by Paik Sanho, a mercenary with a suspicious history and a hidden backer, Munju repeatedly finds herself under attack as she uncovers an international conspiracy stretching all the way to the White House. But, with danger drawing ever closer, will Sanho be able to keep his principal safe and his emotions in check?Tempest, also known as The North Star, is an action series created and written by Chung Seo-kyung, acclaimed writer of the films Lady Vengeance, Family Matters, I’m a Cyborg But That’s OK, Thirst, The Handmaiden, The Truth Beneath, Decision to Leave. Featuring episodes directed by Kim Hee-won (Old Goodbye, “Little Women”, “Queen of Tears”) and Heo Myung-Haeng (a fight choreographer / stuntman).
