Rian Johnson has explained to IGN how he’s approaching his new Star Wars trilogy, seemingly the first mainline Star Wars movies outside of ‘The Skywalker Saga’.

“We’re just at the very beginning of figuring out what this new thing is going to be,” he explained in an interview with IGN, “but part of the excitement of it is really trying to hone in on ‘what is Star Wars?’ What was Star Wars for me the very first time I saw it when I was a little kid? What are the combination of elements that just made me want to jump into the screen, and made me want to go home and instantly start telling my own stories?”

Core to that idea for Johnson seems to be trying to imagine how a film can feel like Star Wars without the series’ most recognisable elements:

This Sunday, at WrestleMania 34 in New Orleans, Kofi Kingston, Big E. and Xavier Woods – known collectively as The New Day – have a chance to win the SmackDown tag team titles when they go up against champs The Usos and monsters The Bludgeon Brothers.

Last year though, at ‘Mania 33, New Day weren’t featured in the ladder match for the RAW tag team belts. They were the hosts of the show, and actually introduced the returning Hardy Boyz as the fourth team in that match. But instead of feeling “left out,” New Day actually thought hosting was a better gig than being in the bout. Speaking to them about it, they were able to see the upside.

Big E: It’s so wild to me that a lot of people bring this up because the short list of people who’ve hosted WrestleMania, it’s actuality very prestigious.

It seems like the whole Internet has noticed that Hawkeye has been noticeably absent from Avengers: Infinity War’s marketing material, but that wasn’t always the case. Back in 2017, at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel was handing out Avengers: Infinity War posters to eager fans that featured a bearded Captain America, Thanos with his gauntlet, and one of the team’s most elusive heroes.

That’s right, the heroic archer Hawkeye, aka Clint Barton, is tucked away in the upper right-hand corner of the poster (see below) right next to Bucky Barnes. As of late, Hawkeye has been missing in all of the trailers, the 22 new character posters, and virtually every piece of the movie’s marketing material except for this single poster. At least he’s getting his moment somewhere.

A Way Out is barely a week old, but game director Josef Fares has already started on his next project. The outspoken developer said in a tweet on April 5 that it was officially the first day of breaking ground on his next game. “Today is officially the start of the next game and I’m INCREDIBLY exited!!!!!! I love making videogames and can’t wait to show it!” he said. That’s a lot of exclamation points.

Naturally, with work just starting on the game, he didn’t give much indication of what exactly it will be. So far, though, Fares’s games have heavily used dual perspectives as the narrative hook. First in Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, one player controlled both boys simultaneously with each control stick. Similarly, A Way Out can only be played cooperatively. That seems to be a design curiosity for Fares, so it wouldn’t be surprising if his next game follows suit.

With the cooperative play a key element of A Way Out, though, Hazelight and EA kept the barrier to entry from being too high by only requiring one copy. Fares estimated that the full experience will last 6-8 hours. In GameSpot’s A Way Out review, Oscar Dayus lamented the tonal inconsistency but still found the co-op experience worthwhile.
