One of the key characters in Arrested Development season 1 was Marta Estrella, but the actress playing her actually changed partway through her run on the sitcom. Arrested Development debuted on FOX back in 2003, telling the story of the formerly wealthy, extremely dysfunctional Bluth family, primarily focused on Jason Bateman’s Michael. While the Bluths all had many reasons to dislike and distrust each other (and sometimes didn’t even need one), one of the biggest in the first season of Arrested Development was Marta’s relationships with Michael (Jason Bateman) and Gob (Will Arnett)....

The cast of Arrow is teasing a “tense” court room episode as Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) is put on trial for being the Green Arrow. Oliver has successfully avoided being implicated as a vigilante since he was first accused in season 1, but now - thanks to Ricardo Diaz - Oliver may not be able to find a way out. Oliver has endured threats to his secret life as a vigilante throughout the entire season....

The Wall Street Journal has an interesting exclusive on how Netflix has been trying to score some points in the wide world of streaming sports, not unlike Apple. So far, we’ve seen Apple stream a full Major League Baseball season of Friday night games, and the company bought a decade of streaming soccer rights, which starts next year. Plus, Apple TV+ already competes with the former DVD rental service on original shows and movies....

Don’t keep making the same old Instagram mistakes I love a good hack. I’ve paid the ‘guru’ for the ‘secrets of Instagram success,’ bought the followers and used hashtags like ‘#usethisfor1000followers.’ So I’m qualified to comment on just some of the many mistakes I’ve made when it comes to social media. Don’t judge me. Mistake #1 – Paying for Pretty Much Anything Followers? Likes? Comments? If you’re paying for something, the Instagram goblins probably know about it....

The third and fourth seasons of Arrow didn’t live-up to the strength of the first two seasons, but the fifth season became a soft reboot for the CW drama. As the show was nearing its 100th episode, participating in another big crossover, Arrow tried to reconnect with what made the show work in the beginning. Rather than going with another super-powered big bad, the fifth season went back to having a villain grounded in reality by making it be someone that Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was responsible for creating....

Astrid Bergès-Frisbey most recent role was in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, but what other films has the French-Spanish actress appeared in? King Arthur: Legend of the Sword was helmed by Brit director Guy Ritchie and released in the 2017 summer blockbuster season. Charlie Hunnam starred as the titular king and Jude Law took the role of his villainous uncle Vortigern, who killed his own brother to become king. Bergès-Frisbey played a powerful, mysterious woman known as The Mage who helps King Arthur on his quest to destroy Vortigern while Eric Bana, Djimon Hounsou, and Aidan Gillen appeared in supporting roles....

This Avengers: Endgame animated trailer sees Earth’s Mightiest Heroes come together with the X-Men. It’s going to be a huge year for Marvel fans on the big screen with the Phase 3 finale rolling out later this month, marking the end of MCU’s The Infinity Saga and subsequently beginning a brand new chapter in Spider-Man: Far From Home. Other than that it’s unknown what the future holds for the franchise, but there’s no scarcity of possibilities now that the mutants are back with Marvel....

SPOILERS for those not caught up on Arrow ahead. - A new set photo from season 6 of Arrow teases a flashback of Oliver’s best friend, Tommy Merlyn (Colin Donnell), who was killed in the season 1 finale. So far, season 6 has been rather light on flashbacks, now that Oliver’s five years on the island have already been explored in the show’s first five seasons. Season 6 has been hard on Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell)....

If Arrow star Stephen Amell gets his way, his long-running show will one day crossover with ’90s cartoon Pinky & the Brain. A year ago, a joke about a gritty genre show getting animated for a crossover with a beloved animated kid’s series would have seemed like just that, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility now. When Supernatural returns at the end of the month, the thirteenth season of the series will go someplace brand new: animation....

Crisis on Infinite Earths ended with a surprise tease of the Wonder Twins, but whether Arrowverse fans will see them any time soon has yet to be determined. The CW finished off their massive five-hour crossover event with Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, and Black Lightning. The event, adapting Marv Wolfman and George Pérez’s iconic 12-issue series, became a new beginning for Greg Berlanti’s ever-growing franchise of DC characters....

A new photo from the set of the Arrowverse crossover teases the return of Captain Cold and his new costume. Death rarely means much in the comics, regardless of how aggressively publishers will push the idea for certain characters. Despite marketing campaigns and promises, most every major hero or villain who has died in a Marvel or DC comic eventually returns. When it comes to the Arrowverse, there’s been little deviation from the source material in this regard....

Instagram announced earlier today that the popular Facebook-owned photo sharing service reached a whopping 80 million users who shared more than 4 billion photos total. These are impressive statistics, but it seems those 80 million users will have a more difficult time finding their Twitter friends’ Instagram profiles. Today’s Instagram update removed the option to lookup and follow friends from your Twitter profile. While this may seem like an oversight or bug on Instagram’s part, that is not the case....

Director Ari Aster crafted an incredibly specific horror film with Midsommar, pulling from ancient Swedish traditions and myths alike to transform a sunny village into a dark cult. It also explores the topic of grief from an interesting angle, centering Florence Pugh in a star-making role, which makes it a worthy follow-up to last year’s Hereditary. Screen Rant discussed the themes of the film and the weight of Dani’s story with Aster and actor Jack Reynor, who plays her well-meaning but ultimately frustrating boyfriend Christian....

With the final season of The CW’s Arrow fast approaching, new images reveal that Oliver Queen will be accompanied by his reliable friends John Diggle (David Ramsey) and Black Canary (Katie Cassidy-Rodgers) in a rather familiar setting. The upcoming eighth season focuses on Oliver Queen’s mission for The Monitor in a lead-in to this year’s highly anticipated Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover. Oliver was tasked by the ancient being with helping to avoid the Crisis Event in last year’s season finale, opening up a multiverse worth of toys for the CW to work with for the final season....
