The Sopranos are a staple of New Jersey lore. It’s one of the seminal shows of the 21st century. By the powers that be, Tony Soprano will be returning to the screen, this time in a prequel film titled, The Many Saints Of Newark, which is currently filming in Newark.
The film is stars Michael Gandolfini, who will portray a young Tony Soprano, following in the footsteps of his late father, James Gandolfini. The film will take place in 1967 during the Newark riots, chronicling the formative years of Tony Soprano and his involvement in the New Jersey mafia. The film is currently shooting on Branford street in Newark, reimagining the horrifying scenes of fifty years ago.
The film will also star Vera Farmiga, Jon Bernthal, Corey Stoll, Ray Liotta, and Leslie Odom Jr. Alan Taylor, who directed multiple episodes of the original series, will direct the movie that is currently slated to be out in 2020.

“The Twilight Zone” reboot will be renewed for a second season, on the streaming service CBS All Access. The show is narrated and produced by Oscar-winning director Jordan Peele, and its first five episodes are available for streaming.
“Jordan Peele and Simon Kinberg’s reimagining of ‘The Twilight Zone’ is off to an amazing start on CBS All Access, driving the most viewers on its premiere day for an original series to date,” Julie McNamara, executive vice president of original content at CBS All Access, said. “Jordan, Simon, the creative team and cast have done a phenomenal job translating the series’ legacy of socially conscious storytelling for modern-day audiences. They are master storytellers, and we look forward to bringing fans further into ‘The Twilight Zone’ with a second season.”
Jordan Peele is playing the role that was performed by Rod Serling, who created the original. It aired from 1959 to 1964, and had 80 episodes. By showcasing strange events, the show portrayed current issues and the human experience.
The first trailer for the next Star Wars movie was released. The movie is titled The Rise of Skywalker, and will conclude the trilogy that includes The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi. The trailer opens with Rey walking through the desert, holding what looks like Luke Skywalker’s lightsaber, and Luke’s voice saying, “We’ve passed on all we know. A thousand generations live in you now. But this is your fight”.
Next, We see Kylo Ren fighting with his signature red lightsaber in a forest, Chewbacca and Lando flying in the Millennium Falcon, and unused footage of Carrie Fisher hugging Rey in a forest. The most revealing information came from the end, in which Rey and her squad are in a desert, looking at wreckage of the Death Star. We then hear an evil laugh that sounds too much like The Emperor/Palpatine to not be him.
To me, the name of the movie, and beginning and end of the trailer are the most telling. Yes, General Leia is still alive after miraculously flying through space with presumably her force powers, so “The Last Skywalker” could mean her. However, I have a feeling that Rey is also a Skywalker, a popular fan theory, so the title refers to her. This is supported by Luke’s quote in the beginning which yes, on the surface, could easily be referring to Rey inheriting all the history of the Jedi. However, I think this is Luke telling Rey she is a Skywalker, because of the use of the word “generations”. After all, “generations” is often used when describing a position within a family tree.
And then obviously, the Palpatine reveal is huge because we all assumed he died at the end of The Return of the Jedi. I wouldn’t be surprised if he attempts to corrupt Rey too, and possibly successfully, like Anakin Skywalker. If that happens, I assume C-3PO will save the day as a social commentary on the rise of AI.
