Just as a heads-up, 2025 is expected to be quite busy for Hollywood and Media in general from deals to news to releases - so stick with me for all the important coverage!

Thanks to all of you once again for continuing to support me on this journey of mine!
Currently LOVING #HighPotential on Disney+ UK weekly - wicked humour and really crafty mysteries!

Such a throwback vibe to another TV era...

The kind of show we generally don't see made today as streaming pushes for smaller episode counts and inflated budgets (which leads to shorter runs overall).

The Oscars getting rid of their centrepiece for ratings - the live performances of "Best Original Song" nominees - will only hurt the entire telecast...

Such a stupid decision.

NINTENDO SWITCH 2:

Nintendo have FINALLY confirmed that their new console - the Switch 2 - will be released globally in 2025.

Several "Hands-On" events to occur in April/May.

We will learn more about the console and games line-up at a global Direct Presentation on 2nd April (which I shall cover)!

"Shrek 5", "Minions 3" and "Mario 2" all in the same year?

No wonder Iger's sequels strategy is on the fast-track for Disney because that line-up is just for Universal in 2026...

Apologies for not being as active as I want to be recently on here - it will be my priority to shift more attention over here in January (I cannot take the other realm much longer at all)

I also want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year before the final slew of Hollywood news today

So, to recap in Media:

- Disney are trying to find the perfect Iger succession plan (again)

- Warner Bros Discovery are preparing to essentially split themselves in two over time

- Comcast are officially divorcing their cable networks

- Paramount are being bought by Skydance

- Sony... Exist?

Disney Live-Action's new strategy is becoming clearer - still SELECT "remakes" of animated classics but more flexibility in expanding them on top of a handful of sequels and a load of original movies...

"Tangled" is the latest remake announced - and it seems pretty far along already!

COMCAST & WBD - DISTRIBUTION DEAL:

Comcast have secured several key rights in a major renewal agreement across Xfinity (U.S.) and Sky (select Europe markets), including:

- Co-exclusive distribution of the "Harry Potter" series
- Non-exclusive distribution of Max (Ads tier) at launch in Sky markets

"SNOW WHITE" (REMAKE) - TRAILER THOUGHTS:

I found the "Snow White" trailer to be almost reverent in its respect for the classic animated original from Disney with a charming, cozy quality that elevated the entire vibe.

I LOVE the music already and everyone seems committed on set too!

"Wicked"'s soundtrack has me soaring through the Western skies!

Even before seeing the full film, I am Enchanted and swept away with the level of emotion, dedication, talent and POWER from Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande and the entire team.

I'm aware I'm geeking out but it truly is that awesome!

UPDATE:

Confirmed by Comcast in a press release.

No extra details really...
COMCAST TO SPIN-OUT CABLE NETWORKS:

Later today, Comcast are expected to confirm their plan to spin-out their cable networks (minus Bravo) by the end of 2025.

This will allow the main company to focus more clearly on Broadcast/Entertainment (NBC) and Streaming (Peacock).

Stay tuned today for more
