Invincible Season 3 Everything We Know
The third season of the animated superhero series Invincible is expected to build on the popularity of the past two seasons. The show, which is based on Robert Kirkman's comic series of the same name, centers on Steven Yeun's character, Mark Grayson, a normal teenager who lives under the shadow of his superhero father until he starts to gain abilities at the age of 17 and learns about his father's sinister past. As comic book movies and franchises get more introspective, Kirkman's Invincible comics, which offer a sophisticated and nuanced look at superheroes, were the ideal material for an original series.

Learn to be Generous
This week I have been fortunate enough to spend a good deal of quality time with Miriam Margolyes. (Even though it was from watching Netflix on my tv set.) I had never known of her existence before she sat in my living room with me. (I'm an idiot, I know, for having said that, since she has been in countless films, tv, and theatre since 1969!) But keep in mind...my life was filled with raising four children, completing a nursing degree, working and advancing in my career, entertaining and spoiling twelve grandchildren to the best of my ability, and being a caregiver to my mother in her last years. There wasn't much time for movies.

Disney is now working on a sixth movie in the venerable and highly popular action-adventure franchise. It has been assumed that Depp will be replaced in Pirates of the Caribbean 6, if it ever happens, given he played the quirky buccaneer Jack Sparrow in the first five films. Due to Amber Heard's allegations of domestic abuse against him and his subsequent defamation lawsuit against her, which resulted in a very unpleasant public trial, the actor lost contact with Disney.
