On today's Kristian Harloff Show, we break down the latest movie news and major updates from the worlds of Star Wars, DC, James Bond, and horror franchises. Could The Mandalorian and Grogu actually "save" Star Wars at the box office? New opening weekend projections are climbing, and we discuss whether Din Djarin and Grogu can bring audiences back to theaters in a massive way.
We also talk about the first set videos from The Batman: Part II finally surfacing online, giving fans their first look at Matt Reeves' highly anticipated sequel starring Robert Pattinson as Batman. What could these early set leaks reveal about the tone, story, and villains of the next DC movie?
Plus, new details have emerged about the future of James Bond as Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight teases a fresh cinematic approach for 007. Could this be the reinvention the Bond franchise needs after Daniel Craig's departure?
And finally, Lionsgate has confirmed discussions are underway for Michael 2 following the success of the Michael Jackson biopic. Is a sequel already happening, and what could it explore next?
