This week’s new entertainment releases cover a lot of ground. To start, there’s plenty on Netflix: the dark animated series Castlevania: Nocturne, the crime thriller Reptile, and Wes Anderson’s The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.

It stars Jodie Foster and Kali Reis. It looks excellent — and I’ve embedded the trailer below.

If you aren’t up to date on the latest chapter of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga and you’re an avid follower of Duolingo social media you’re uhh... probably having a bad time today.
Apparently, one of that damnable owl’s posts on X (formerly Twitter) spoils the aftermath of a major event in the manga, mere days after the chapter’s release. I can appreciate wanting to appeal to the Youth, but ruining a big manga moment is a surefire way not to do that.

Or at least, it’s supposed to be. The Curse is a show about a couple dealing with what appears to be a curse alongside trying have a baby and hosting a home improvement show. It certainly looks unsettling, and with a cast that includes Emma Stone, Nathan Fielder, and Benny Safdie, it’s hard to know what to expect. It premieres on Showtime on November 10th.

If you weren’t able to watch Netflix’s animation event live — which featured the premiere of the first three episodes of Castlevania: Nocturne — you can still get an early glimpse at the beginning of the debut episode in the clip below. Of course, it won’t be long before you can just watch the whole thing: Nocturne starts streaming on September 28th.

The Kevin Smith-led Masters of the Universe reboot is coming back next year, and to celebrate, here’s a clip of He-Man fighting Scare Glow.

In the latest clip for Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, we get a glimpse at some of the changes made in the animated version. Most notable: Ramona Flowers now delivers DVDs for Netflix. The show starts streaming on November 17th.

The latest addition to Netflix’s original anime lineup, Blue Eye Samurai tells the story of “Mizu, a mixed-race master of the sword who lives a life in disguise seeking the deliverance of revenge.” The series starts streaming on November 3rd.

Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix — an adaptation of the Far Cry spinoff Blood Dragon — starts streaming on October 19th, and you can get a taste of its cyberpunk world in this new trailer.

Here’s a quick look at the upcoming third chapter of Sonic Prime, which features a very serious Tails and a promise that it is “coming soon.”
