Ewan McGregor has shared his theory on why the Star Wars prequels were panned by critics. 

In a new interview with GQ UK (opens in new tab), the actor – who recently reprised the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi for the first time onscreen since 2005 in the eponymous Jedi’s Disney Plus series – suggested that those tasked with reviewing the trilogy simply “didn’t get” what they thought they were going to.

“I think the critics just wanted to feel like they were seven or eight again,” McGregor explained, reflecting on the negative reception to The Phantom Menace and its two follow-ups. “So I was left with that [reaction] for years and years, and it took [until I started] meeting people, and I realized how important our films have been to them.

“To begin with, all we heard really was the critical side of things,” he recalled. “That was the only voice I remember hearing, and they were not liked. I admire George for having tried to do something different with them. He didn’t just set out to make another three Star Wars films that felt like the original ones. I respected him for that. I think that’s ballsy and interesting.”

Set ten years after the events of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, Obi-Wan Kenobi catches up to the titular hero as he watches over Luke Skywalker on Tatooine. Before long, though, Obi-Wan finds himself looking after Leia Organa, as the pair try and evade the clutches of Anakin Skywalker, now Darth Vader.

It is available to stream on Disney Plus now. While it’s unclear whether a second season is on the cards, the show has sparked enthusiasm for a couple of spin-offs, mainly centered on Reva and Darth Vader – and you can read our argument for the latter here. While we wait for more news, check out the upcoming Star Wars movies and shows currently in the works.

Black Mirror season 6 is in the works – and with an all-new star-studded cast. Netflix’s dystopian anthology series, created by Charlie Brooker, has added Aaron Paul, Kate Mara, Zazie Beetz, Danny Ramirez, Josh Harnett, Paapa Essiedu, Clara Rugaard, Anjana Vasa, and Auden Thornton to the cast. According to Variety (opens in new tab), this particular casting spans three episodes, and a whole other slew of actors will soon be added to the roster.

Season 5 premiered back in 2019, and consists of only three episodes, with notable cast members including Anthony Mackie, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Miley Cyrus, and Andrew Scott. The new episodes will be “even more cinematic in scope” with each installment essentially being treated as an individual film.

Paul, best known for his starring role in Breaking Bad, currently plays Caleb on HBO’s Westworld and recently starred alongside Karen Gillan and Jesse Eisenberg in Riley Stearns’ satirical sci-fi thriller Dual. Beetz plays Van on FX’s Atlanta and can be seen next in David Leitch’s upcoming action flick Bullet Train. Ramirez appeared in blockbuster sequel Top Gun: Maverick and will next star in Netflix’s Look Both Ways alongside Luke Wilson and Riverdale star Lili Reinhart.

Essiedu stars as George in Sky TV’s action drama time loop series The Lazarus Project, Thorton plays Lucy Damon in NBC’s This Is Us, and Vasan can be seen on Channel 4 and Peacock’s “We Are Lady Parts.” Former teen heartthrob Josh Harnett is set to play Nobel Prize-winning nuclear physicist Ernest Lawrence in Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer.

Vecna is now firmly positioned as Stranger Things’ Big Bad heading into the fifth (and final) season. Now, actor Jamie Campbell Bower has outlined a little of what to expect from the monstrous villain. Spoilers: it’s not good news for Hawkins – and beyond.

In his own warped way, Vecna aims to make the world “1,000 times better” Bower told TVLine (opens in new tab). “His experience has led him to this point of believing — actually, knowing, not necessarily believing — that people present a falsity and this world is just full of liars. He really wants to change that for the greater good.”

Viewers got a taste of Vecna’s grand plans during the closing moments of Stranger Things season 4. There, legions of the Upside Down began invading Hawkins and, despite Vecna’s seeming ‘death’, it appears he’ll be the one leading the charge and aiming to create a new world in his image.

One theory, however, suggests Vecna might have some twisted company in the upcoming season. Max, who was left blind and comatose by Vecna, has seemingly been consumed by the villain. “This is probably the best Stranger Things theory I’ve heard yet,” the theorist said on TikTok (opens in new tab). “When Eleven looks into Max’s mind, it’s blank… nothing… but Max isn’t truly gone.”

They continued, “When [Vecna/One/Henry] killed all the kids at the lab, he literally said, ‘They aren’t gone Eleven, they’re still with me in here’.” The implication being, then, that Max may have suffered a fate worse than death – but could still find a way out of Vecna’s clutches.

Stranger Things season 5 is set to be the show’s last. The Duffer Brothers have also confirmed writing is set to begin in August. While we wait for one final trip to The Upside Down, be sure to check out our spoiler-filled breakdown of the Stranger Things season 4 volume 2 ending.

*Warning: This article contains spoilers for Stranger Things 4, Volume 2*

Netflix has unveiled a new billboard dedicated to a dead Stranger Things character, who was killed in the fantasy horror show’s fourth season. The Duffer brothers – and Noah Schnapp – warned us there would be casualties in the two-part finale to season 4, but viewers were still left shocked and devastated when fan-favorite Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn) bled out after being bitten by a bunch of Demobats in episode 9. The Dungeons & Dragons-loving metalhead had been tasked with distracting the winged beasts alongside Dustin Henderson (Gaten Matarazzo), so that Robin, Steve, and Nancy could attack villain Vecna‘s body in the Upside Down.

At first, their plan to put on the loudest, “most metal” rock concert worked, and drew the creatures towards the alternate version of Eddie’s real-world trailer. But when the bats started coming through the vents, the duo bailed – or at least Dustin did. Plagued by his guilt for running away when cheerleader Chrissy, Vecna’s first victim of the season, was murdered, he vows not to flee this time and instead, bursts out of the trailer and bikes down the road to buy the others some more time. Sadly, for Eddie, the swarm catches up with him and by the time Dustin re-enters the dark dimension and kneels by his side, he’s already fading.

“I didn’t run this time, right?” the Hellfire Club leader asks Dustin as he lay dying. “I think it’s my year, Henderson. I think it’s finally my year. I love you man.” A hero’s outing if ever we saw one, and Netflix has honored his brave actions by erecting a display panel that says, “Eddie freaking Munson.”

Yesterday (July 6), the streamer tweeted out a photo of the billboard alongside the words, “The Man, The Myth, The Legend.” And the platform isn’t the only one paying tribute to the character. If you’re still hung up on what happened, then check out our heartfelt reaction to Stranger Things’ Eddie death, or if you want to torture yourself, then read up on all of the Stranger Things season 4, Volume 2 deaths.

Stranger Things is a love letter to pop culture, written and created by pop culture lovers Matt and Ross Duffer. The series frequently borrows from and is inspired by classic films – and Stranger Things season 4 is no different. The season pays homage to horror icons like Doug Bradley’s Pinhead and Anthony Hopkins’ Hannibal Lecter, and even takes some inspiration from haunted house horrors like The Amityville Horror and The Changeling. 

If you’ve finished Volume 1 and 2 and are looking for something to fill the Hawkins-shaped void in your heart, we’ve compiled a watchlist full of creepy goodness to keep you busy. Some of the films on this list have a pretty direct influence on Stranger Things season 4, and others are simply scary flicks that we think are a must-watch after finishing this season. Scroll on down to see our spooky selection – and be warned, there are spoilers for Stranger Things ahead as we discuss how these movies influenced the Netflix series.

Carrie (1976)

Sissy Spacey as Carrie

(Image credit: United Artists)

There’s a riff on Brian De Palma’s Carrie in episode 2, one that was acknowledged by author Stephen King himself. (opens in new tab) Much like Eleven, Carrie (Sissy Spacek) is a shy teenage girl with psychic and telekinetic abilities who doesn’t quite fit in with everyone else. Eleven’s high school bullies are cruel and inhumane, not unlike Chris Hargensen (Nancy Allen) and co. 

The roller rink scene combines two scenes from Carrie: one where Chris and the girls corner Carrie in the girls’ locker room and pelt her with tampons and pads while she cowers on the floor, and the infamous prom scene in which Carrie is doused in pig blood on stage – another move orchestrated by Chris. Carrie retaliates by using her telekinetic powers to set the auditorium on fire and send her bullies to their deaths. When Angela and co. throw a milkshake at Eleven and push her to the floor, El – who doesn’t have her special powers – bashes Angela in the head with a roller skate.

The Gate (1987)

The Gate

(Image credit: Alliance Entertainment)

The Gate, directed by Tibor Takacs, follows a twelve-year-old named Glen (Stephen Dorff) who lives in a house that, at first, appears to be haunted… but it’s actually a gateway to a demonic other-realm. Sound familiar?

Glen and his best friend Terry (Louis Tripp) accidentally open the gate, and everyone who inhabits the house becomes plagued with horrifying supernatural happenings that result in death, destruction, and demons disguised as their own parents. If you liked the Creel House’s connection to the Upside Down, you might like The Gate’s direct connection to hell.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)

Robert Englund as Freddy Kreuger

(Image credit: New Line Cinema)

Of course Freddy Kreuger is on this list: he’s played by Robert Englund, who plays Vecna-plagued, falsely accused serial killer Victor Creel. But that’s not the only connection.

Vecna preys on teenagers who are actively hurting or wracked with guilt after surviving a traumatic event and forces them to undergo some kind of twisted reenactment prior to taking their lives – not unlike our man Freddy. Both villains have twisted, fleshy faces and are seemingly immortal – but Freddy gets you the second you fall asleep. 

While every installment of West Craven’s Nightmare on Elm Street franchise more or less follows the same premise (i.e. Freddy Kreuger hunting teenagers in their dreams), Dream Warriors (directed by Chuck Russell) focuses a whole lot more on the trauma that plagues each victim – and even takes place in the psychiatric hospital where they’re trying to heal. We also learn a bit more about Freddy’s origin story which, spoiler alert, isn’t as cool as Vecna’s.

The Ring (2002) / Ringu (1998)

The Ring

(Image credit: DreamWorks Pictures)

Whether you know The Ring by its ominous ‘You’re gonna die in seven days’ phone calls or as the ‘movie with the creepy girl who comes out of the TV’ – it’s definitely worth a watch.

After viewing a ‘cursed’ videotape, each victim is killed approximately seven days later by an unseen force. Each body is left with what some viewers have dubbed as the ‘death face,’ in which the victim’s jaw is broken and their face is violently contorted – not unlike what Vecna does to the kids.

While Gore Verbinski’s 2002 remake might be more popular with Western viewers, the original Japanese film by Hideo Nakata is a little more complex and delves into the concept of murder via psychic abilities and ESP – and the little girl at the center of it all. We definitely recommend a double feature.

Firestarter (1984)

Firestarter (1984)

(Image credit: Universal Pictures)

A little girl with special powers being hunted down by the government…sound familiar? While we can’t necessarily verify that the Duffer brothers took inspiration from Charlie McGee (Drew Barrymore) in order to craft Eleven’s storyline, we don’t think it’s entirely out of the realm of possibility. Especially considering that one of the promotional posters for season one (opens in new tab) was a clear riff on the film’s poster, putting Eleven in a similar pose with her hair blowing in the wind. While Eleven’s powers are more telekinetic, Charlie has pyrokinesis: the ability to control heat and fire.

 A secret government agency known as the Department of Scientific Intelligence or “The Shop” (which did actually exist in the United States for some time) takes Charlie from her family and experiments on her with the goal to weaponize her powers. She and her father Andy (David Keith) live life on the run, but are eventually captured by a member of The Shop who wants Charlie killed. Sounds a little bit like season four… or maybe a lot a bit.

Alien 3 (1992)

Alien 3

(Image credit: Twentieth Century Fox)

When Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) crash-lands onto an all-male maximum-security prison planet, she accidentally unleashes a facehugger who promptly gives birth to a terrifying alien – who ends up hunting down the prisoners one by one. 

David Harbour even confirmed (opens in new tab) the David Fincher film’s influence on season 4, which makes perfect sense given that Hopper is being held at a maximum-security prison that happens to be housing a live Demogorgon. Much like Ripley, it’s Hopper who ends up leading the charge against the creature while the other inmates back away – or get instantly slaughtered.

The Amityville Horror (1979)

Irene Dailey in The Amityville Horror

(Image credit: MGM)

In 1975, George (James Brolin) and Kathy Lutz (Margot Kidder) buy a new home in Amityville, New York, and are excited to start a brand new chapter… until they become plagued with violent supernatural occurrences. Much like the Creel House is another entrance to the Upside Down, the Amityville house is referred to as a “passage to hell.” It starts off with missing items and unexplainable locked doors and quickly escalates to blood oozing down the walls to a pig with glowing red eyes – who is their young daughter Amy’s (Natasha Ryan) ‘imaginary’ friend.

Even scarier, the film is based on the real-life story of the Lutz family, who bought the house at a ‘bargain price’ just one year after Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed six members of his family upstairs.

Don’t Look Under the Bed (1999)

Don't Look Under the Bed (1999)

(Image credit: Disney)

This one might seem like the true outlier on the list, but stick with us. Don’t Look Under the Bed is a made-for-TV fantasy horror flick that premiered on the Disney Channel in 1999 under the Disney Channel Original Movie banner. When strange things start happening in the small down of Middleberg – such as dogs appearing on peoples’ roofs and packets of gelatin being poured into the school swimming pool, all signs seem to point to high school freshman Frances McCausland (Erin Chambers), though she’s really not sure why. When an imaginary friend named Larry (Eric “T” Hodges II) shows up, evident by the fact that only children can see him, he informs Frances that she’s being framed by the Boogeyman.

Larry and Frances end up journeying into a dream-like version of the Upside Down, which exists under Frances’ bed. And, uh, the Boogeyman is terrifying. If his jagged teeth and abnormally long and pointed fingers weren’t enough, he has a fish scale-like extra skin that suddenly puffs up – like that of a Demogorgon – when he’s trying to terrify Frances. This one might give you nightmares, but it’s definitely worth the watch.

The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

The Silence of the Lambs stars Jodie Foster as an FBI agent named Clarice Starling who, while hunting down gruesome murderer Buffalo Bill (Ted Levine) seeks out the advice of former psychiatrist turned cannibalistic serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins).

Though Victor Kreel isn’t a killer like Dr. Hannibal Lecter, there are definitely some parallels: namely between Robin and Nancy’s visit with Kreel and Clarice Starling’s visit with Lecter. Even though Lecter and Victor are sentenced to spend a life behind bars, their life experience is needed in order to capture a serial killer and solve a murder mystery. Both Lecter and Victor are held in institutions for the criminally insane, and are kept under tight watch in a cell at the end of a dark corridor. Nancy and Robin are taunted by the other inmates as they head toward Victor’s cell, which is undoubtedly an homage to Jonathan Demme’s Academy Award-winning psychological thriller.

Hellraiser (1987)

Ross Duffer said it himself (opens in new tab): “Pinhead really freaked us out when we were younger. We really want to imbue Vecna with some Pinhead vibes.” And imbue they did. 

Hellraiser, directed by Clive Barker and based on Barker’s book The Hellbound Heart, follows a morally corrupt man who buys a mystical puzzle box and ends up opening a direct portal into a sadomasochistic type of hell. Much like Vecna, Pinhead (Doug Bradley) – named for, you guessed it, the extremely sharp needles that protrude from his face and head – was once human, too. The Cenobites were born as earthly beings, but later transformed into grotesque demonic creatures due to their blind devotion to sadomasochism – and Pinhead, being the most depraved of them all, is their leader.

And it isn’t just their creepy low-octave voices that make them similar: Both Vecna and Pinhead speak to their victims in eerily calm, collected tones before causing their victims pain. That’s part of what makes them so terrifying: they aren’t in a rush. They don’t mind explaining. Plus, they show up when summoned.

The Changeling (1980)

It’s another horror flick about a haunted house, yes, but it isn’t just the stained glass windows and square Victorian turrets that made us think the Duffer brothers might’ve given The Changeling a rewatch before writing season 4.

When widowed composer John Russell (George C. Scott) decides to buy a historic mansion from an agent named Claire Norman (Trish Van Devere), the paranormal happenings start. However, unlike some of the other films we’ve listed, it isn’t demons this time. Instead, it’s the ghost of a sickly six-year-old boy who was drowned in the house by his father. 

When Victor Creel recounts his encounter with Vecna via flashback in episode 4, he enters the attic and finds a rather ominous, rusted wheelchair. We also learn in episode 7 that it was Vecna’s favorite place in the house as a boy – the room where he set up candles and focused on channeling his psychic abilities in order to torture his family. In The Changeling, John quickly realizes that the paranormal presence is coming from the attic. It’s here that Claire discovers the sickly boy’s cobweb-covered antique wheelchair – triggering a terrifying chain of events.

Summer of ’84 (2018)

When the trailer for Summer of ’84 first debuted, the Stranger Things comparisons were almost immediate. It’s set in the 80s, follows a group of teenage boys who set out to uncover the mystery of multiple missing teenage boys, and yes they ride through their neighborhood on bikes.

While the film, directed by Francois Simard, Anouk Whissell, and Yoann-Karl Whissell, might’ve been inspired by the recent boom in pop culture nostalgia brought about by the popularity of Stranger Things, it’s a realistic, true-crime kind of horror that borrows more from Stand By Me. There isn’t a Demogorgon at the center of these terrifying happenings – everything is painfully human.

The Black Phone (2022)

Late 70s nostalgia, bullies, psychic abilities, supernatural happenings, missing kids, and a terrifying villain who watches while you sleep? Yeah, this flick has something for everyone. Based on the novel by Joe Hill, The Black Phone follows Finney (Mason Thames), a teenager who gets abducted by a sadistic child murderer (Ethan Hawke) and uses a disconnected phone in his cell to communicate with his captor’s previous victims. The film was directed and co-written by Scott Derrickson, helmer of Sinister, another Ethan Hawke-led horror that is frequently considered to be one of the scariest movies of all time.

Where does Thor: Love and Thunder fit on the Marvel timeline? It’s not an easy question to answer, because the exact timeframe of the movie is fairly vague. Still, there are some clues that help pinpoint when the movie might take place in the Marvel line-up. 

The film sees the return of Natalie Portman as Jane Foster, now the Mighty Thor, who teams up with Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie, and Taika Waititi’s Korg to go up against Christian Bale’s terrifying Gorr the God Butcher, who, as the name suggests, intends to kill all of the MCU’s gods.  

The most recent Marvel releases, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Ms. Marvel, are both set in the same year. So how does Thor: Love and Thunder fit into the chronology? We explain all below… and don’t worry, the following is completely spoiler free, so you can read on even if you haven’t had a chance to catch the movie just yet. 

When does Thor: Love and Thunder take place on the Marvel timeline?

Director Taika Waititi previously indicated that the movie takes place four years after Avengers: Endgame, which places it in 2027 – for context, Doctor Strange 2 and Ms. Marvel both take place in 2025 (remember, MCU time is a bit ahead of our own due to the Blip). That seems a little too far ahead, then, and potentially a simple misstep from the director as the movie itself offers more clues. 

For one thing, Thor says exactly how long it’s been since he and Jane last saw each other: eight years, seven months, and six days. We don’t know exactly when the God of Thunder and the astrophysicist parted ways, but the breakup is referenced in Thor: Ragnarok, which is set in 2017/2018. 

Eight years on from then puts Love and Thunder at around 2026, which is just a little further on than Multiverse of Madness and Ms. Marvel. So, depending on when Thor and Jane actually called it quits, the movie could be set anytime from 2025 to 2027, though it’s probably safe to pin it between 2025-2026. Narrowing the window down any further is pretty much impossible, because the time of year isn’t very obvious in the movie and there aren’t any references to the events of other recent MCU films.

Things could become clearer once Guardians of the Galaxy 3 arrives, as those characters appear in Love and Thunder. Until then, though, we’ll have to stick with the broader timeframe of somewhere between 2025 and 2026.

Night Sky won’t be getting a second season – Amazon Prime Video has canceled the sci-fi series after only one season, Deadline (opens in new tab) reports.

The show starred Oscar-winning actors J.K. Simmons and Sissy Spacek as Franklin and Irene, a married couple who discover a portal to a deserted planet in their backyard that they’ve kept secret for years to protect the world from outsiders. However, when a young man (Chai Hansen) enters their lives, things start going wrong, and they discover that there is more to this portal than they once thought.

The show was created by Holden Miller, while Daniel C. Connolly, who previously worked on series like The Son, starring Pierce Brosnan, served as showrunner. 

All eight episodes were released on Prime Video in May 2022 and the first episode was also streamed in outer space. This marked the furthest distance from Earth that a TV show has ever been broadcast and made Prime Video the first streamer to distribute a movie or show directly into space.

On review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, the show has an average critics rating of 73%, while the audience score is 81%, so Night Sky was received positively by both critics and casual viewers alike. However, Deadline cites low viewership figures and high production costs as a reason for the series’ cancelation. 

Night Sky season 1 is available to stream now. If you’ve already caught up with the sci-fi drama, fill out your watch list with our picks of the other best shows on Amazon Prime Video.

*Warning: This article contains spoilers for Stranger Things 4, Volume 2*

Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer have a hard time letting go of their characters. Not only have they admitted it themselves, but lead actor Millie Bobby Brown has called them out for only killing off a handful since the Netflix show began in 2016. 

Stranger Things season 4, Volume 2 saw a couple of villains and a hero meet their demise, however, and now the duo has confirmed that one character in particular is “definitively” dead: Matthew Modine’s villainous Dr. Martin Brenner. 

“For real this time. He’s toast,” the pair joked while appearing on Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast (opens in new tab), referencing how Brenner was believed to have wiped out by a Demogorgon way back in season 1, only to resurface in the most recent installment. (Modine did show up in season 2, but the scenes in question were flashbacks).

The scientist, who used to carry out tests on Eleven and the other superpowered children at Hawkins National Lab, was fatally shot by Lieutenant Colonel Sullivan’s troops in the eighth episode of season 4, titled ‘Papa’, as he tried to carry a sedated Eleven away from the compromised NINA Project compound. While he was the one that drugged her before placing a shock collar around her neck, he tells Eleven as he bleeds out that he’s always seen her as is family. A master manipulator with murky morals until the very end, eh, Martin?

Elsewhere in the new interview, the Duffers stated that everyone’s favorite D&D-loving metalhead Eddie Munson (Joseph Quinn) is “sadly” gone, too – having been attacked be a bunch of Demobats. But that’s fortunately not the case for Sadie Sink’s Max Mayfield, who just about escaped with her life after using herself as bait for big bad Vecna in episode 9.

“She’s brain dead, but yeah, she’s alive. She’s blind and all of her bones are broken, but yeah, she’s doing great, Josh,” they teased. “She’s seen better days.”

If you’re on the hunt for more Hawkins-related content, check out our breakdown of the Stranger Things season 4, Volume 2 ending and how it all sets up Stranger Things season 5, or our spoiler-heavy list of who dies in Stranger Things season 4, Volume 2.  If you’re not keen to dwell on the darker stuff, though, we’ve rounded up all of the fun Stranger Things season 4, Volume 2 Easter eggs here.

A new Netflix billboard has convinced Stranger Things fans that something terrible will happen to Joe Keery’s Steve Harrington. The second part of season 4 arrives on the streamer imminently, and anticipation is at a high. 

“Protect Steve,” the billboard reads, and the streamer posted the picture to Twitter with the caption: “AT ALL COSTS!!!” It certainly sounds ominous, especially considering series creators the Duffer brothers have already warned that we “should be concerned going into the final two episodes – for everybody.” Then there are those bat bites to worry about… 

AT ALL COSTS!!! pic.twitter.com/qabjmpy0y1June 29, 2022

“NETFLIX STOP PLAYIN WITH ME PLEASE,” says this fan (opens in new tab), and another says simply (opens in new tab): “If you kill him off I swear to god…”
