Rapper Eminem is reviving an old project, and it&rsquo;s not a song, or a movie, but rather a pop-up diner named after a lyric from his Oscar-winning song &ldquo;Lose Yourself&rdquo;.
From the lyrics &ldquo;His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy / There&rsquo;s vomit on his sweater already, mom&rsquo;s spaghetti,&rdquo; taken out of the aforementioned song, the rapper took the last couple of words &ldquo;Mom&rsquo;s Spaghetti&rdquo; and decided to open a diner specializing in pasta dishes.
The lyric is in the first verse:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/7YuAzR2XVAM" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Paying homage to his hometown and the location of the events that transpired in his movie &ldquo;8 Mile&rdquo;, the diner is only opening in one place, Detroit, Michigan, USA.
Funnily enough, the rapper even created a bunch of videos for the new diner and the dishes they serve, it&rsquo;s quirky, a little over the top, and has a &ldquo;Better Call Saul&rdquo; vibe that makes it unique.
Check it out below:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/eJnlY1QNH3M" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>This isn&rsquo;t the first time the rapper opened the diner though, as it was first opened back in 2017, collaborating with the local scene to help the community, he would later take the brand to the Coachella Festival in 2018, and at the start of the pandemic in 2020, the diner donated 400 meals to front-line workers who needed it the most.
Rumors have been speculating that he&rsquo;s re-opening the diner now to get ready for a speculated new album release that is going to happen on an unspecified day in October, which gives a lot of Eminem fans hope to get something new.
Last month it was announced that Rapper Eminem has been cast as a recurring guest star in an upcoming drama series created by Curtis &ldquo;50 Cent&rdquo; Jackson.
According to Deadline, the show is titled &ldquo;BMF&rdquo; aka &ldquo;Black Mafia Family&rdquo;, and is &ldquo;Inspired by the true story of two brothers who rose from the streets in Southwest Detroit, BMF is set in the late 1980s and follows one of the most influential crime families. Demetrius &ldquo;Big Meech&rdquo; Flenory&rsquo;s charismatic leadership, Terry &ldquo;Southwest T&rdquo; Flenory&rsquo;s business acumen, and the fraternal partnership&rsquo;s vision beyond the drug trade and into the world of hip-hop would render the brothers iconic on a global level.&rdquo;
Eminem is set to play a character based on White Boy Rick, who was an infamous Detroit teenager turned undercover FBI informant turned drug dealer.
This wouldn&rsquo;t be the first time we see Eminem act, as he starred in the movie &ldquo;8 Mile&rdquo; which was loosely based on his life's story, his performance was actually pretty good, he even won an Oscar for &ldquo;Best Original Score&rdquo; for the film too.
Check the trailer for that below:

A lot of singers have been getting hit with copyright lawsuits nowadays, and the latest to join the list is none other than The Weeknd, who he and his collaborators on the song &ldquo;Call Out My Name&rdquo; are being sued with claims that they&rsquo;ve ripped off another song.
What is the lawsuit about?
According to NME, The Weeknd, Nicolas Jaar, and Frank Duke who worked on the album &ldquo;My Dear Melancholy&rdquo; are being sued by producers Suniel Fox and Henry Strange who claim that &ldquo;Call Out My Name&rdquo; ripped off their 2015 track titled &ldquo;Vibeking&rdquo;.
&ldquo;[&ldquo;Call Out My Name&rdquo;] contains quantitatively and qualitatively similar material in their respective lead guitar and vocal hooks, including melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic elements distinctive to &ldquo;Vibeking&rdquo;,&rdquo; reads their filling in the case.
They have more
Fox and Strange don&rsquo;t stop there, as they also claim that they have records of communication between them and The Weeknd&rsquo;s people that confirm and support their case against him.
In these records, they claim that they were in contact with The Weeknd&rsquo;s DJ and playback engineer named Eric White aka PNDA, and shared their song with him, who in turn shared it with The Weeknd who responded stating that he liked the song.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/M4ZoCHID9GI" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>The two producers claim that they got a response from White who said that he wasn&rsquo;t going to credit them as they were relative unknowns to the singer, they claim that they responded that they do know The Weeknd and asked him to notify the singer that Strange wrote the song and he is part of the singer&rsquo;s production team, which allegedly didn&rsquo;t happen.
What do they want?
Strange and Fox are seeking to get back all the profits which &ldquo;Call Out My Name&rdquo; got as well as legal fees for their trouble and in the meantime, the singer is not to perform the song until everything gets settled in court.
This could be trouble
If the records are true, the singer could be in a lot of trouble and might lose a hefty about of cash in the process, as the song has over 701 million views on YouTube alone, that's not looking into the amount of streams the song got on audio streaming services that definitely got the singer a large amount of cash.
We&rsquo;ll have to wait and see what will happen.

The Weeknd is being sued for copyright infringement over his song “Call Out My Name”.

Iconic Guns N&rsquo; Roses guitarist, Slash, has delighted fans by dropping a small tease for the band&rsquo;s upcoming song &ldquo;Hard School&rdquo; aka &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo;.
Slash took to <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@slash/video/7008627151993867525?is_copy_url=0&amp;is_from_webapp=v1&amp;sender_device=pc&amp;sender_web_id=6891529549143754241" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTok</a> where he released a short video of himself on stage rehearsing the song with no one there to hear it except the band and some of the backstage team.
The post also revealed that the song was originally rehearsed on August 16 as the band got ready to perform in Chicago, however, didn&rsquo;t play it during the actual concert.&nbsp;
Check out the song "Absurd" which they released about a month ago below:&nbsp;
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Qx3RfdAdCpQ" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Last week the news about the song was shared on a Twitter fan account which revealed in a now-deleted post that a fan met with lead singer Axl Rose after their show in Atlantic City, and was invited backstage by the singer where they had a conversation and some drinks, and it&rsquo;s there where she asked him about the song &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo;.
The post stated that Rose played the song for the fan and revealed to her that the band was going to release it soon.
The song, &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo;, was one of many unreleased &ldquo;Chinese Democracy&rdquo; demos alongside &ldquo;Absurd&rdquo; (released almost a month ago) which were leaked back in 2019, and ever since then fans have been asking for an official studio release for the song so that they could hear it after it got polished, but there hasn&rsquo;t been much response since.
Unfortunately, we don&rsquo;t have an exact release date for the song, so we&rsquo;ll have to wait and see, but according to the fans&rsquo; reaction to the story, many of them are hoping that it&rsquo;s better than &ldquo;Absurd&rdquo; which was received with mixed reactions overall.&nbsp;

Iconic rock band, Guns N&rsquo; Roses, are making a comeback with new music! Just over a month since the release of their song &ldquo;Absurd&rdquo; now they are rumored to be dropping another one, titled &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo;.
According to NME, Loudwire, and Blabbermouth, the news about the song was first shared on a Twitter account which revealed in a now-deleted post that a fan met with lead singer Axl Rose after their show in Atlantic City, and was invited backstage by the singer where they had a conversation and some drinks, and it&rsquo;s there where she asked him about the song &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo;.
The post stated that Rose played the song for the fan and revealed to her that the band was going to release it soon.
"So last night I finally met Axl, he invited me backstage and we had a beer together, He remembered me from other shows! I asked him about 'Hardskool' and he played it for me and said they should be releasing it soon. Dreams do come true," wrote the fan in the now-deleted post.
Check the post below:

That is until recently as the band dropped &ldquo;Absurd&rdquo; just over a month ago, and even rehearsed &ldquo;Hardskool&rdquo; a couple of weeks ago, which reignited fans&rsquo; interest in the song.
Unfortunately, we don&rsquo;t have an exact release date for the song, so we&rsquo;ll have to wait and see, but according to the fans&rsquo; reaction to the story, many of them are hoping that it&rsquo;s better than &ldquo;Absurd&rdquo; which was received with mixed reactions overall.

While we&rsquo;re getting ever closer to the upcoming season of &ldquo;The Crown&rdquo; we got the news that Egyptian-British actor Khaled Abdalla has been cast as Dodi Al-Fayed.
This piece of news gives us an idea of what the show has planned in the upcoming fifth and sixth seasons, as the real Princess Diana, who will be played on the show by Elizabeth Debicki, met Al-Fayed in 1997 with whom she got romantically involved before they were both killed in a car accident in Paris, so that means we&rsquo;re going to see the final years of the princess and perhaps even the aftermath of the accident.
On the other hand, don't get your hopes up to see the tragic event happen, as one of the biggest moments of Princess Diana's life her wedding to Prince Charles was skipped, as the show just gave us a glimpse of her in her wedding dress that's all, which is what could happen here too.&nbsp;
Unfortunately, we might wait sometime before we see these events unfold, as we move on from the show&rsquo;s fourth season which heavily focused on the 1980s, the upcoming two seasons will definitely focus on the 1990s, which was a very hard time on the royal family including a fire breaking out at Windsor Palace.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/drzDBnuIekg" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Debicki takes over the role from Emma Corrin, who played a young Diana, Prince Charles will be played by Dominic West, Imelda Staunton will portray Queen Elizabeth II, Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip, Lesley Manville will play Princess Margaret, and Jonny Lee Miller stars as Prime Minister John Major.
"The Crown" series has been doing really well, getting a lot of positive reactions from viewers and critics alike, and has even received numerous Emmys since 2018.
Just recently at Emmy's Awards held last week, the series garnered seven awards in total, the largest that night, which included &ldquo;Outstanding Drama Series&rdquo;, &ldquo;Outstanding Lead Actor&rdquo; for Josh O'Connor as Prince Charles, &ldquo;Outstanding Lead Actress&rdquo; for Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth II, &ldquo;Outstanding Supporting Actor&rdquo; for Tobias Menzies as Prince Philip, &ldquo;Outstanding Supporting Actress&rdquo; for Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher, &ldquo;Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series&rdquo;, and &ldquo;Guest Actress in a Drama Series&rdquo;.

Legendary actor Tom Hanks&rsquo; characters are usually in a lot of trouble, being stranded or lost just check &ldquo;Appolo 13&rdquo;, &ldquo;Cast Away&rdquo;, or "The Terminal", and now there&rsquo;s a new movie on the way in which he&rsquo;s stuck too but this time during a post-apocalyptic world.
Titled &ldquo;Finch&rdquo;, the official synopsis reads: &ldquo;a robotics engineer (Hanks) is one of the few survivors of a cataclysmic solar event that has left the world a wasteland. But Finch, who has been living in an underground bunker for a decade, has built a world of his own that he shares with his dog, Goodyear.&rdquo;

Fresh off his Primetime Emmy win last Sunday, actor Ewan McGregor, revealed that his upcoming series &ldquo;Obi-Wan Kenobi&rdquo; has wrapped shooting and is currently in the next phase of production.
The actor was asked about the show after his win at the Emmys ceremony, to which he confirmed that the show has finished shooting and that he was really excited about the upcoming show, he stated that it would not disappoint fans, and even went far as saying that his experience doing the show was very different than when he did the &ldquo;Star Wars&rdquo; prequel movies and liked it so much.
&ldquo;We finished shooting our series, and it was really, really good fun &mdash; I really enjoyed working with Deborah Chow. I think it will not disappoint,&rdquo; started the actor.&nbsp;
&ldquo;I think it&rsquo;s gonna be good. I had a really good time making it, and worked with some really wonderful people, lovely people. The new technology we employed doing it is cool, and it was a different experience than making the original three films that I did,&rdquo; he continued.
Check out the video below:

The show is set to take place ten years after the fall of the Jedi Order as he hides on the planet of Tatooine, we don&rsquo;t know more beyond that but we can expect seeing how he became a hermit, how he watched a young Luke Skywalker from afar before the events of the &ldquo;Star Wars&rdquo; original movies, and we can also expect seeing Hayden Christensen as he returns to reprise his role as Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader.
Along with McGregor and Christensen, the show also stars Moses Ingram, Joel Edgerton, Bonnie Piesse, Kumail Nanjiani, Indira Varma, Rupert Friend, O&rsquo;Shea Jackson Jr., Sung Kang, Simone Kessell, and Benny Safdie.
We still don&rsquo;t know when the mini-series is set to release but we do know it&rsquo;s going to be sometime in 2022.

The classic 1987 vampire movie &ldquo;The Lost Boys&rdquo; is getting a revamp (pun intended) as reimagining/remake is in the works.
According to reports about the new film, it will not be a one to one remake of the original movie but rather will be reimagined to fit a modern-day setting and not that of the 1980s, with The Hollywood Reporter stating that &ldquo;A Quiet Place&rdquo; actor Noah Jupe and &ldquo;IT&rdquo; star Jaeden Martell set to star.
Beyond the two casting choices, the rest of the boys have not been revealed and we have no clue regarding the plot, only that it&rsquo;s going to take place in the present. No release date has been revealed as of yet.&nbsp;
The original movie which starred Jason Patric, Corey Haim, Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman, Alex Winter, Jami Gertz, Corey Haim among others, followed a group of teenagers who discover the existence of vampires in a small town so they set out to protect their home and family and get ready to become vampire hunters.
Check out the trailer for the original below:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/r1Iqy6m7U7c" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>The movie was very successful at the time of its release, as it both became a commercial and critical success, even spawning two sequels, however, they failed to capture the magic or the spark of the original and eventually were critical failures.
The band Chvrchs recently covered the main theme song from the original movie titled &ldquo;Cry Little Sister&rdquo; which appeared in the movie &ldquo;Nightbooks&rdquo; that was released on September 15.
&ldquo;Cinema &mdash; horror in particular &mdash; has always been a big part of Chvrches behind the scenes. We have talked about covering &lsquo;Cry Little Sister&rsquo; for years and this seemed like the perfect moment to do it,&rdquo; said the band in a statement.

In an announcement released on Saturday, the Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) revealed that YouTubers, bloggers, and influencers are required to register for an income tax if they get a steady income through anything digitally.
But it didn&rsquo;t stop there, the ETA also required Egyptian Youtubers and Influencers, whose income is more than 500,000 pounds per year, are also required to register for the value-added tax (VAT).
Check out the post below:
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fincometax.gov.eg%2Fposts%2F163432182629394&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="673" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>The new request is part of the Income Law No. 91 of 2005, meaning that it was supposed to start at that time, however, since e-commerce, social media, and the content creation industry wasn&rsquo;t as big as it is today, it went un-enforced, that is until yesterday.
Now content creators and e-merchant have two options to follow, either to follow the 2005 law and begin to submit papers that prove their income and their expenses through tax invoices in order to calculate the net profit and from it deduct the tax rate according to the segment he is in.
The second option is to follow Law 152 of Small and Medium Enterprises which means they would be billed for taxes from this point forward and forget anything in the past, but a fixed percentage of taxes will be set for it, to be paid each year according to its profits in each year.
Reda Abdel Qader, head of the Egyptian Tax Authority stated that: &ldquo;According to the Value Added Tax Law No. 67 of 2016, companies engaged in the activity of selling public goods or performing services in the general category, when their turnover reaches 500,000 pounds annually, must register for value-added tax and collect and supply the tax in the general category of the specified authority.&rdquo;
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/LX6GsDwx1r4" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>There was a lot of debate regarding where the money goes and whether it's fair that the money, however, it's important to understand that YouTubers and content creators outside of Egypt pay taxes in their respective countries, so this isn't unheard of.
With regards to where the money goes, as per the above video, the money goes towards paying for several projects that the Egyptians need in many fields including education, roads, infrastructure, and more.
For more information we still recommend you contact the ETA on 16395.&nbsp;

The UK is finally going to relax its traveling restrictions by removing eight countries from its Red List, which includes Egypt, later this week.
Back in June of this year, Egypt was put on the UK&rsquo;s red list of high-risk countries, even though at the time COVID-19 cases were decreasing, nevertheless, it was added restricting or limiting traveling the European country, thankfully that all changed over the weekend as British Transport Secretary Grant Shapps stated that eight countries were going to be removed from the red list as of this Wednesday and includes Egypt.
<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/nrpassets/uploads/embeds/1632036786-o-CAIRO-INTERNATIONAL-AIRPORT-facebook.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="310" />Along with Egypt, the countries that were removed from the list are Turkey, Pakistan, the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Oman, Bangladesh, and Kenya.
What this means is people returning from these countries will no longer be required to stay in hotel quarantine and PCR tests will no longer be required for fully vaccinated travelers returning to England.
Under these new testing measures, people who have had both vaccine shots will not need to take a pre-departure test before leaving any country that is not on the red list.
"The purpose is to make it easier to travel without the bureaucracy, without so many tests, and with a greater level of certainty now that we've got so many people vaccinated," said Transport Secretary Grant Shapps according to the BBC.
Due to COVID-19 traveling has become a bit of an issue, and it&rsquo;s understandable as countries have been trying to protect themselves and stop the spread of the virus, however, as more and more people get vaccinated these countries are starting to open up, and things are looking brighter for the future.

We all spend most of our days at work rather than at our own apartments, essentially making it our second home, and with the pressure of what we have to do all day, things can get a little hectic, frustrating, and stressful at times, so we got you five simple steps to manage your stress levels and get you focused better.
Take A Deep Breath
Work can be overwhelming at some points, so a simple way to ground things down is to take a moment and have a deep breath, doing some breathing or meditation exercises at your desk will help balance things out.
If you&rsquo;re looking for a simple one; simply inhale for five seconds, hold and exhale in equal counts through the nose.
<iframe class="giphy-embed" src="https://giphy.com/embed/8YfwmT1T8PsfC" width="480" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe>
Balance Your Personal &amp; Work Lives
This is one of the most important things you need to do, as it disconnects your work and personal lives, and prevents burnout.
Some of the simplest examples are to set boundaries from both lives, establishing rules when to take work calls or check emails, do meaningful things on your time off, and socialize with others.
<iframe class="giphy-embed" src="https://giphy.com/embed/RhZXDmevEukgGFeaL9" width="480" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe>
Change of Scenery
When you have a break or during lunch, you can change your surroundings for a short while, you can reorganize your desk so it can look better, or even go for a short walk around the area you&rsquo;re in.
Walking is a good way to get your blood flowing, it destresses you, and is a form of exercise even though it won&rsquo;t get you all sweaty, it&rsquo;s still a good way to keep you moving.
<iframe class="giphy-embed" src="https://giphy.com/embed/rDDv72OIYB39K" width="480" height="270" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe>
Be Comfortable
One of the things that can actually be causing you stress is not being physically comfortable at your desk, especially when you&rsquo;re sitting there all day doing your daily tasks.
Another thing that can be causing you discomfort is the noise around you, so you need to block it out with either some relaxing music that will get you focused or some white noise in the form of waves crashing or even some rain that will keep you calm and collected.
<iframe class="giphy-embed" src="https://giphy.com/embed/l3vRaWAPakjiEUQow" width="480" height="480" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" data-mce-fragment="1"></iframe>
Plan Your Day
If you&rsquo;re going through a rough couple of days at work, you need to get a bird&rsquo;s eye view of what you have to work with, so write everything down, organize, prioritize, and schedule your day or week so you have a plan to follow.
This plan will give you the guidelines you need to do everything efficiently and effectively without getting the feeling of being overwhelmed or unorganized.

&ldquo;Muja&rdquo; the Alligator in Belgrade Zoo is the oldest alligator in captivity in the world, and this year the amazing animal is reaching the ripe old age of 85.
It&rsquo;s not known exactly when Muja was born but the creature was transferred to the zoo in 1937 already an adult so that means that the alligator is likely older than 85 but unfortunately, we don't have the exact number.
Muja is a survivor
Muja is one lucky alligator as it almost died two times during WWII when the city was bombed twice with the zoo being almost completely destroyed, thankfully the creature was not harmed; similarly, there was also the NATO bombing of the area in the 1990s but Muja was also able to survive.
The alligator also had a brush with death back in 2012 when one of its legs contracted gangrene which then needed to get amputated, however, besides that the animal has been alive and well, with food brought to it as because of its age it can&rsquo;t hunt anymore.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/DZnCk_Ho6OI" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>It entered the Guinness World Records on May 22, 2018, at the age of 80 when it became the oldest living alligator when the holder of the record at the time passed away.
The average lifespan of an American alligator, of which Muja is a member, is from 30 to 50 years, so the animal is already surpassing at an impressive range.
We&rsquo;re not sure if the alligator will surpass the age of a hundred but there&rsquo;s a Nile crocodile named Henry that is already older, still surviving at the tender age of 120 at the Crocworld Conservation Centre in South Africa.

Muja the oldest alligator in the world is becoming 85 this year!

We all love video games and while there are a lot of games out there, some of them have a strong foundation based on their humble yet powerful beginnings that made them become the trailblazers in the gaming world today.&nbsp;
So we picked five of our favorites and put them on a list to get a little bit nostalgic and show you the start of some of your favorite games today.
Mario
Original release date: September 1985
Newest game: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
Story: Mario is, to this day, one of the most recognizable faces in videogames, originally just named &ldquo;Mr. Video&rdquo;, the character appeared in a game called &ldquo;Donkey Kong&rdquo; where players controlled him to climb up a building to help rescue his love from a King Kong-like character facing barrels and fire along the way.
The character later got his own game with &ldquo;Super Mario Bros.&rdquo; and in it, we got the iconic theme that would get stuck into the head of listeners all the time, we would also get some of the characters we all know and love today.
Over the years we got over 200 games overall and the character is still going strong today, trailblazing the platforming gameplay and fun factor it came with, leading to the creation of many games like it including the famous &ldquo;Sonic&rdquo; and beyond.

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5nW9o6M5zFo" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Prince of Persia
Original release date: October 1989
Newest game: Prince of Persia: Sands Of Time Remake
Story: &ldquo;Prince of Persia&rdquo; had an interesting start, because you had to finish the whole game in an hour, which many have tried and failed when it originally came out.&nbsp;
Its premise was simple, players control a prince who has been framed for a crime he didn&rsquo;t commit, with an evil sorcerer taking over the kingdom and imprisoned the princess, it&rsquo;s the player&rsquo;s role to find a weapon, escape prison, learn about his past and save the princess, mind you all that in an hour!
The game evolved over the years, with a second one being as popular as the first, then it laid dormant for some time until we got &ldquo;Prince of Persia: Sands of Time&rdquo; which was a reintroduction of the character to a new generation, giving players the ability to control time with their dagger, and even run on walls with the Prince&rsquo;s parkour skills.
The game was a major success leading to many sequels, movies, and even spawning the idea for one of the biggest franchises in the videogame world today &ldquo;Assassins Creed&rdquo;, and while it has been missing for years now, rumors are circulating that a new one might be on the way soon.

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/htzq7EEXQs8" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Wolfenstein
Original release date: May 1992
Newest game: Wolfenstein Young: Blood
Story: A game that popularized the first-person shooter genre, it had a monumental impact on the gaming world as it essentially confirmed that games are not just for kids but adults can enjoy it too.
The original game had a simple concept, you&rsquo;re a soldier during WWII, who had been captured and put in castle Wolfenstein, you need to escape the dungeon, move up the castle, and fight off the German dictator, and by the way, he&rsquo;s wearing a powerful mech suit too.
The game would vanish for quite some time, as the developer would move on to other franchises and develop the concept of first-person shooters taking it to new heights.
&ldquo;Wolfenstein&rdquo; would eventually see a return several times in the future with many reboots and attempts to refresh it but unfortunately they wouldn&rsquo;t be able to harness the magic of the original, except for the latest trilogy starting with &ldquo;Wolfenstein: The New Order&rdquo; which rebooted the whole thing changing it to a future where the Nazis won WWII and players need to work with the resistance to free the rest of the world.

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/SvbU423NR5k" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Doom
Original release date: December 1993
Newest game: Doom Eternal
Story: Remember when we said that the developers behind &ldquo;Wolfenstein&rdquo; went on to focus on other shooters, well, this is what they worked on next, moving away from the WWII setting and towards space and the paranormal.
Players controlled &ldquo;Doom Guy&rdquo; a space marine sent to Mars after a facility there goes offline, only to find out that scientists there opened a portal into Hell and bringing the demons into our world, so he hops from one facility to another clearing it out before going into Hell itself to close the portal.
We got three solid games over the years, then they vanished without a trace until in 2016, the game saw a reboot that brought back everything that was great about the original, and even an interesting storyline inspired the original game too, and we would get a sequel in the form of &ldquo;Doom: Eternal&rdquo;&nbsp; which was as fast, bloody, gory, and fun as the earlier project.

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Xz8_a47OetM" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Crash Bandicoot
Original release date: 1996
Newest game: Crash Bandicoot: It&rsquo;s About Time
Story: This classic brought platforming to the masses, as PlayStation was looking for a mascot to rival that of Nintendo&rsquo;s Mario, and Sega&rsquo;s Sonic, players got Crash, a bandicoot, who&rsquo;s as loved as the other two, and one, fans still remember to this day.
In the original game, players controlled the characters as he set out on an adventure trying to stop the evil Dr. Neo Cortex from taking over the world, jumping and kicking enemies with his spin attack, all while eating his favorite fruit.
In the sequels, Crash is later joined with a cast of characters including his sister who is just as fun to play with, players would later see the character and his games fall into decline and stop altogether, that is until a remake of the original trilogy was released that reignited fans interest in the character.
And in 2020 we got a new sequel that put the character back on the map because of its success, we can safely assume more sequels are on the way.

Five games that had humble beginnings that are still awesome today.

5 Videogames That Had Humble Beginnings & Are Still Huge Today

4 min read
Video Games and horror movies have always found a sense of harmony together, with &ldquo;Friday The 13th&rdquo; and &ldquo;Alien: Isolation&rdquo; being the clearest examples, but it looks like another iconic character may be joining them as a &ldquo;Texas Chainsaw Massacre&rdquo; game could be in development.
According to Reddit and NME, when searching for the &ldquo;LeatherfaceTheGame&rdquo; website people are directly transferred to a game development studio named Gun Interactive, which calls itself a &ldquo;concept design studio and publisher with a passion for horror&rdquo;.
Among the games they&rsquo;ve already developed are &ldquo;Layers of Fear 2&rdquo; and &ldquo;Friday The 13th: The Game&rdquo; so adding a &ldquo;Texas Chainsaw Massacre&rdquo; game wouldn&rsquo;t be out of place, with Leatherface the main antagonist from the film filling in the same role as Jason Voorhees&rsquo; role in his game.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/do3GPzDR6d8" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Fans of both the movie franchise and the games kept pressuring Gun&rsquo;s CEO for a comment regarding what the company is developing since they didn&rsquo;t directly announce that they&rsquo;re working on a &ldquo;Texas Chainsaw Massacre&rdquo; game, to which CEO Wes Skeltner responded on Twitter back on August 4, stating that they&rsquo;re in fact working on a &ldquo;The Crow&rdquo; game and another game, however, with regards to the second one there a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) preventing him from talking about it.
&ldquo;I have a few folks asking why we can be transparent about The Crow and not our other project. It&rsquo;s because there&rsquo;s NDA&rsquo;s with the current project. But the Crow idea was born online. So I told the rights holders from the start that I was going to be open. They agreed,&rdquo; said Skeltner.

Fans have been excited about the game for some time as it was revealed back in December that the actor who played Jason in the latest &ldquo;Friday The 13th&rdquo; movie and game, was working on another horror game franchise for the same studio, leading many to speculate that he&rsquo;d be playing Leatherface.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/MkiJod0NO7U" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Back in October 2020, we got a hauntingly beautiful poster announcing that a new &ldquo;Texas Chainsaw Massacre&rdquo; sequel was on its way this year, and while didn&rsquo;t get much about what the film was going to focus on, now we do, and it&rsquo;s going to be all about &ldquo;Old Man Leatherface&rdquo;.
In March 2021, producer Fede Alvarez explained that the movie is going to be a direct sequel with the Leatherface character in this film being the same one we saw in the original saying: &ldquo;It is a direct sequel, and it is the same character&rdquo;, and that we see him aged but still terrifying.
&ldquo;Everything is classic, old school gags,&rdquo; Alvarez went on to explain, &ldquo;a lot of the approach that we had with Evil Dead &ndash; never VFX, to do everything on camera. It&rsquo;s a very old-school approach to filmmaking. Vintage lenses&hellip; it&rsquo;s very similar to the original film.&rdquo;

The original film was released back in 1974 and got a sequel in 1986, both directed by Tobe Hooper and both were critical and commercial successes, but the movies didn&rsquo;t stop there, as six other sequels and remakes came later with the latest coming out in 2017 simply titled &ldquo;Leatherface&rdquo;, however, the film failed to bring back the magic and horror the original movies brought to the table, but it seems like Hollywood wants another shot at the character.

A “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” game could be on its way soon!

“Texas Chainsaw Massacre” Game Could Be In Development

2 min read [Image Credit: Epic Games / Sony]
&ldquo;Bad Boys&rdquo; and &ldquo;Fortnite&rdquo; fans rejoice! Will Smith&rsquo;s character &ldquo;Mike Lowrey&rdquo; from the famed action flick has been added to the game for players to play as in their matches.
The announcement was shared on their official blog last Saturday, where they revealed that the character was available for gamers to purchase and play as.
&ldquo;Mike Lowrey is one cool customer. Whether he&rsquo;s involved in explosive action or a high-speed chase, he&rsquo;s always undeniably smooth. And now, the South Beach detective is heading to &lsquo;Fortnite&rsquo;,&rdquo; wrote the team.
Check out the picture below:
<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/nrpassets/uploads/embeds/1630320142-fortnite-full-mike-lowrey-set-1630246515258.jpg" alt="" />Unfortunately, those looking for the second half of the &ldquo;Bad Boys&rdquo; duo Marcus Burnett played by Martin Lawrence in the movies, won't find him as he still hasn&rsquo;t received his own skin yet.
IGN pointed out that it&rsquo;s weird that the character is being added now since the character last appeared in the third movie &ldquo;Bad Boys For Life&rdquo; back in January of 2020, and the fact that this season of the game is concentrating more on aliens and space making Smith&rsquo;s characters from &ldquo;Men In Black&rdquo; and &ldquo;Independence Day&rdquo; more fitting.
Check out the trailer for the last "Bad Boys" movie below:&nbsp;
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/jKCj3XuPG8M" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>This isn&rsquo;t the first time there have been movie and TV collaborations with &ldquo;Fortnite&rdquo; because we saw seasons that included characters from &ldquo;The Mandalorian&rdquo;, &ldquo;Star Wars&rdquo;, &ldquo;Marvel&rdquo;, &ldquo;Arrow&rdquo;, &ldquo;Terminator&rdquo;, and &ldquo;Rick &amp; Morty&rdquo; among others.
The latest collaboration before Smith&rsquo;s was for the movie &ldquo;Free Guy&rdquo; when the "Fortnite" team added the character &ldquo;Dude&rdquo; from Ryan Reynold&rsquo;s latest movie &ldquo;Free Guy&rdquo;, which focuses on a game and a non-playable character in it.
Check out the character in the film below:

The game &ldquo;Fortnite&rdquo; has millions of fans all over the world, not just for the gameplay but because it also had several musicians perform on its virtual stage offering a unique experience, some of the performers included rapper Travis Scott and Marshmello, and now there&rsquo;s another one joining them, Ariana Grande.
Yup, that&rsquo;s right, singer Ariana Grande is set to do a virtual concert on &ldquo;Fortnite&rsquo;s&rdquo; virtual stage this weekend as part of the game&rsquo;s &ldquo;Rift Tour&rdquo; from August 6 to 8.
Check out the trailer below:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/A6gPMGgqIKI" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>The event will be five different timed shows throughout the three days so that people from around the globe can connect and enjoy the performance.
Fans were quick to get excited about the news, as rumors about the event were reportedly leaked last month naming her as the next performer on the game&rsquo;s virtual stage.
What is it going to look like?
As we mentioned before this isn&rsquo;t the first time a musician has performed for the gamers on the platform, with the likes of J Blavin, Dominic Fike, Major Lazer, Marshmello, and Travis Scott, with Scott&rsquo;s performance last year being one of the most memorable as it was able to break Fortnite&rsquo;s streaming records with the whole performance being just under nine minutes too!
The performance was able to bring in over $20 million in revenue, not to mention it being later uploaded to YouTube where it was watched over 163 million times.
Check out Scott&rsquo;s performance below:

While fans of the &ldquo;RoboCop&rdquo; franchise and movies have been asking for years to see the character brought to the video gaming world, it looks like it&rsquo;s finally happening but it will take some time to see it.
Revealed during Nacon Connect 2021, a teaser trailer dropped for &ldquo;RoboCop: Rogue City&rdquo;, that showed off the title, some buildings of Chicago, the release date, and the famous protagonist&rsquo;s hip as the gun flips out.
While it doesn&rsquo;t give us much to work with, IGN revealed that the game is supposed to be a first-person action-adventure game based on the 1987 RoboCop franchise and the first three films.
Check out the trailer below:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/j2TL1TgJUfk" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Does that mean that we&rsquo;ll get to experience the main character&rsquo;s tragic origin story yet again, as he transitions from officer Alex Murphey to the famed RoboCop after a painful event? We don&rsquo;t know but it seems so.
"We&rsquo;re very much looking forward to collaborating with Nacon and Teyon to bring one of MGM&rsquo;s most timeless IPs back to gaming platforms with a brand-new story," MGM vice president of global consumer products and experiences Robert Marick said.
"The film is known for gripping action and complex storytelling, and we are excited for RoboCop fans to experience this first hand through the game," he continued.
Unfortunately for those waiting on the game, they&rsquo;ll have to wait a bit more as the game is expected to release some time in 2023, and of course that is also subject to change.
The last time we saw RoboCop in a video game is when he was introduced as a playable character in &ldquo;Mortal Kombat 11&rdquo;.

RoboCop is getting his own game titled "RoboCop: Rogue City" in 2023.

“RoboCop” Is Getting His Very Own Videogame… In 2023

&ldquo;Call of Duty: Warzone&rdquo; is enjoyed by millions from around the world, and as more and more characters get introduced, it was a matter of time before Arab characters get in the mix, and while we've seen many from fictional countries this time we got a playable Egyptian character who's on the good side rather than affiliated to the stereotypical bad-guy role; he&rsquo;s named Salah too!
Salah is going to be part of the fourth season of the massive online shooter as well as the multiplayer part of &ldquo;Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War&rdquo; so fans will be able to enjoy the character on both platforms.
<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/nrpassets/uploads/embeds/1623872729-E38oovlWUAA1L_L.jpg" alt="" width="620" height="348" />What do we know about the character?
We actually know a bunch of information about the character, he was born 16-8-1957, he speaks Arabic, he is in the Egyptian Special Forces Unit-777, which is helping NATO fight against a group of terrorists called "The Jackals" in the game.
According to the game&rsquo;s file for him, he&rsquo;s also a morale booster for his team, and famous for his positive attitude, helping his fellow soldiers both on and off the field, he&rsquo;s also idealistic, and enthusiastic too.
In the press release photo, you can see that the character is wearing three patches written on them in Arabic, the first is near his heart with the words &ldquo;mohareb&rdquo; meaning &ldquo;warrior&rdquo;, the second is on his chest with a logo of a lion on top of a skull with the words &ldquo;Al-walaa&rsquo; Lilwatan&rdquo; which translates to &ldquo;My loyalty is to my country&rdquo;, and finally the third is on the left side of his torso which features a skull with wings and the words &ldquo;Qatel al-a&rsquo;adaa&rsquo;&rdquo; which is Arabic for &ldquo;Enemy killer&rdquo;.
<figure class="image"><img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/nrpassets/uploads/embeds/1623872185-cod_salah_-_Copy.png" alt="" width="620" height="494" />
<figcaption>Visible patches</figcaption>
</figure>
&ldquo;A member of the CIA-led squadron that infiltrated the Algerian satellite crash site, Salah has a wealth of combat and negotiation skills that make him an invaluable member of NATO&rsquo;s finest,&rdquo; reads the official press release about the character.
&ldquo;A member of Egypt&rsquo;s elite Unit 777, Salah is a Counterterrorism and Hostage Rescue expert. Always positive and quick to see the best in people, he will always have your back,&rdquo; it continues.&nbsp;
The character will be released amongst the bundle offerings in the game and can be seen in one along with a Komodo dragon, but we still don&rsquo;t know how that will come into play.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/iaMNDKmZ0UM" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>This isn't the first time we've seen Egypt in the "Call of Duty" games as there was that one time where players fought alongside the Egyptian military in "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" and while yes, there was Azur in the "Warzone" platform he was again put in with the fictional terrorist group "The Jackals".

The popular social media platform, Twitter, added a new language option &ldquo;Arabic (Feminine)&rdquo; for those who want to use the feminine grammar of the language on the platform as part of its inclusion and diversity drive.
Twitter made the announcement on their official blog in which they explained that there are several languages over the world including Arabic, that has both a masculine and a feminine format for its grammar so it would be only natural to provide the two options to accommodate users and be more inclusive.
&ldquo;People across the world come to Twitter to discuss what&rsquo;s happening, and we want our service to better reflect the many voices that shape the conversation. In some languages, such as Arabic, words can be feminine or masculine, but we&rsquo;ve missed a way for people to tell us how they want to be addressed. So today, we're introducing a new language setting that acknowledges and better supports the Arabic feminine form,&rdquo; wrote Twitter.
So words like Tweet and Explore would be &ldquo;غرّدي&ldquo; aka &ldquo;Gharidi&rdquo; instead of the masculine &ldquo;غرّد&rdquo; aka &ldquo;Gharid&rdquo; and &ldquo;إستكشفي&rdquo; aka &ldquo;Estakshifi&rdquo; instead of &ldquo;إستكشف&rdquo; aka &ldquo;Estakshif&rdquo;, and so on.

If you&rsquo;re interested in changing the language on your phone or computer, log in on Twitter, then go to &ldquo;Settings and privacy,&rdquo; then &ldquo;Accessibility, display, and languages.&rdquo; Next, select &ldquo;Languages&rdquo;, go to &ldquo;Display language&rdquo;, and finally select&nbsp; &ldquo;Arabic (feminine)&rdquo;.
The post was received with mixed reactions from users, while there were trolls who posted toxic messages, the rest were messages of support for female empowerment, equality, and representation over in tech and social media.

Twitter adds "Arabic (Feminine)" in its language options for diversity and inclusion.

If you&rsquo;ve been having a problem accessing some of the most popular websites in the world you&rsquo;re not alone, as a global outage struck several of them early this morning.
Who got affected?
Websites including Reddit, Spotify, Twitch, Stack Overflow, GitHub, gov.uk, Hulu, HBO Max, Quora, PayPal, Vimeo, Shopify, Stripe, CNN, The Guardian, The New York Times, BBC, and Financial Times have all been having issues, as well as Amazon but the eCommerce website was able to reactivate quickly.
What's wrong?
According to several publications including Reuters and TechCrunch, the issue arose from a glitch happening at Fastly which is a Content delivery network (CDN) provider to many well-known websites; the problem was also confirmed by The Financial Times product manager, Matt Taylor.
&ldquo;Fastly, the CDN provider, is having a massive outage, resulting in Twitch, Pinterest, Reddit, The Guardian, and the FT returning 503 errors,&rdquo; wrote Taylor.

Has it been fixed?
This afternoon the issues were finally identified by Fastly after over an hour of errors and the company was able to patch the issue and resolve it once and for all, but advised that it is still monitoring the situation globally to find the source of the problem, and maintain that all the websites using their CDN are functioning properly.

Fastly also shared a timeline of its process to work on a solution that happened due to its outage, detailing the start process, investigation, updates, and finally the resolution of the issue, while keeping transparent with their users, explaining that most of the websites using their service will still have degraded performance for the time being until the issue is completely fixed.

The long-awaited &ldquo;God Of War&rdquo; sequel will unfortunately not be coming out this year, but for a couple of good reasons.
During a Q&amp;A session with Herman Hulst, Head of PlayStation Studios, it was revealed that the company is focusing on two upcoming narrative-driven games &ldquo;Horizon Forbidden West&rdquo; and the yet to be titled &ldquo;God Of War&rdquo; &ldquo;sequel, but while Hulst explained that &ldquo;Horizon&rdquo; was still on track to release during this year&rsquo;s holiday season, the &ldquo;God Of War&rdquo; sequel will be released "a little later", which puts it in 2022.
"So we have, currently, two very big, very narrative-driven games in development: Horizon Forbidden West and the next God of War. And for both of those, they&rsquo;re frankly affected by access to performance capture and talent," Hulst said in the Q&amp;A.
"For Horizon, we think we are on track to release this holiday season. But that isn&rsquo;t quite certain yet, and we&rsquo;re working as hard as we can to confirm that to you as soon as we can,&rdquo; he continued.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/WpgXz5Z9v-U" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>Why was it delayed?
The reasoning behind the delay is so that Sony can give Santa Monica Studio (the studio developing the game) enough time to make sure they come out with a game that will offer an amazing experience and to be certain the game would come out completely without issues for both PS4 and PS5.
"And for God of War, the project started a little later. So we&rsquo;ve made the decision to push that game out to next year, to ensure that Santa Monica Studio can deliver the amazing God of War game that we all want to play. With these things, something&rsquo;s gotta give. It cannot be the quality of our titles, and it surely won&rsquo;t be the health or the wellbeing of our amazing team," Hulst explained.
"You can&rsquo;t build a community of over 110 million PS4 owners and then just walk away from it, right? I think that&rsquo;d be bad news for fans of PS4, and frankly not very good business," Hulst said. Where it makes sense to develop a title for both PS4 and PS5 &mdash; for &lsquo;Horizon Forbidden West&rsquo;, the next &lsquo;God of War&rsquo;, &lsquo;GT7 &lsquo;&mdash; we&rsquo;ll continue looking at that. And if PS4 owners want to play that game, then they can. If they want to go on and play the PS5 version, that game will be there for them."
Santa Monica Studio's response
Santa Monica Studio also released a statement on Twitter mirroring what Huslt stated in the interview, writing: &ldquo;We remain focused on delivering a top-quality game while maintaining that safety and wellbeing of our team, creative partners, and families. With this in mind, we've made the decision to shift our release window to 2022."
<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/nrpassets/uploads/embeds/1622712025-E25HwW7UcAEAq2B.png" alt="" />During last year&rsquo;s PS5 event Santa Monica Studios released a teaser trailer that had a lot of gamers excited, as it was the first trailer for the game and featured the name &ldquo;God of War: Ragnarok&rdquo; which hinted at an upcoming battle for the world, as teased at the end of the original game.
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Ty7WudwSKMA" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>How was the original game?
The 2018 &ldquo;God of War&rdquo; was a reboot for the franchise, and was both commercially and critically successful, with many hailing it as one of the best games to ever release on the PS4.
The game followed a grizzled Kratos as he takes a trip along with his son to spread his wife&rsquo;s ashes on top of a mountain after her passing, but things are not as what they seem, turning the simple task into a father-son adventure of legendary proportions.

Fans have been waiting for the sequel to 2018's "God Of War" but it seems like the game has been delayed to 2022.

Highly-Anticipated “God Of War” Sequel Delayed To 2022

The highly-anticipated &ldquo;Battlefield 6&rdquo; has been plagued with leaks for a couple of months now, as bits and pieces of the upcoming trailer circulated the interwebs, but now Electronic Arts (EA), and developer DICE decided that they give players what they want and announced when they&rsquo;d be able to see the first trailer for the game.
The company took to social media where they announced that the date for the upcoming &ldquo;Battlefield 6&rdquo; reveal trailer is set to release on June 9 at 4 PM Egypt time.
No numbers?
Interestingly, the company didn&rsquo;t attach a number to the upcoming game simply titling it &ldquo;Battlefield&rdquo; which is weird since the past few games have been having numbers at the end of the with &ldquo;Battlefield 5 (V)&rdquo; being the latest one to do so.
The teaser doesn&rsquo;t have much in it, only a short video of a glitchy screen that lights up with the game&rsquo;s name and the trailer release date, all while a heavy version of the game&rsquo;s theme song played in the background.
Check out the post below:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

Gamers seem to be excited as the video was able to amass over 2.7 million views in less than 24 hours.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re in daily playtesting mode right now: polishing, balancing and making the best possible Battlefield game we can,&rdquo; Skar Gabrielson, general manager at DICE told Polygon in April.
&ldquo;I can tell you it is a bold step. It has everything we love about Battlefield &mdash; and takes all of it to the next level. Epic scale. All-out military warfare. Crazy, unexpected moments. Game-changing destruction. Massive battles, packed with more players and mayhem than ever before. All brought to life with the power of next-gen consoles and PCs,&rdquo; he continued.
While we don&rsquo;t really know much about the plot of the upcoming game, we can assume that the events in it will take place in current times, which is a step back into the modern era which will be the first &ldquo;Battlefield&rdquo; game to do so since 2013&rsquo;s &ldquo;Battlefield 4&rdquo;.

The voice cast for the upcoming &ldquo;Super Mario Bros&rdquo; animated film has been announced, and it has a lot of people scratching their heads.
The announcement was made by Illumination Studios, the one behind animated movies like &ldquo;Minions&rdquo; and &ldquo;Despicable Me&rdquo; who revealed who is playing whom in the upcoming animated adaptation of the beloved videogame and characters.
The movie will include a star-studded cast, several with a history of voice-over work and familiar voices, as we&rsquo;ll see Chris Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, Fred Armisen as Cranky Kong, Kevin Michael Richardson as Kamek, Sebastian Maniscalco as Spike, and a Cameo from Charles Martinet.

While the project has a lot of big names attached to the project, fans of the game were left confused by the cast, because many believed that some voice actors didn&rsquo;t fit with the characters they&rsquo;re playing, especially Pratt as Mario.&nbsp;
Fans voiced their concerns ever further sharing their disappointment over social media, as they felt that voice actor Martinet, who does the voice of Mario in the games, was robbed of the role just so that the studio could bring in a bankable celebrity.
Pratt took to his social media shortly after the announcement where he shared a story about how he always wanted to play the character since he was a kid, as when he was young he would steal quarters from the wishing well so he could play the &ldquo;Super Mario Bros&rdquo; arcade game at the local laundromat.

This wouldn&rsquo;t be the first time we see a feature to star the famous plumber, back in 1993, Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo played Mario and Luigi respectively in a live-action movie, which was both a critical and commercial failure at the time of its release but has since been able to gather a following over recent years due to its over the top campy comedy.

Egyptian-American actor, Rami Malek, is set to make his hosting debut in the multi-Emmy award-winning show &ldquo;Saturday Night Live" next month, and we couldn&rsquo;t be more proud.
The announcement came from SNL themselves over social media where they announced their hosts and accompanying musical acts in the upcoming episodes of the show for the month of October.&nbsp;
In the announcement, they revealed that the new shows are set to be hosted by Owen Wilson, Kim Kardashian, Malek, and Jason Sudeikis, accompanied by musical talents Kacey, Musgraves, Halsey, Young Thug, and Brandi Carlile respectively along with the dates the shows are going to happen.
Check it out below:

&mdash; SNL is back October 2! (@nbcsnl) <a href="https://twitter.com/nbcsnl/status/1440760431526625285?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 22, 2021</a></blockquote>
The news went viral because it showed brand new hosts who will appear on the sketch show for the very first time, which had a lot of fans excited, including us and Malek&rsquo;s fans all over the world.
It will be interesting to see a comedic side to Malek as he takes to the SNL stage, where we&rsquo;re sure he&rsquo;s going to talk about his upcoming role as the James Bond villain &ldquo;Safin&rdquo; in the new movie &ldquo;No Time To Die&rdquo;.
&ldquo;No Time to Die&rdquo; is set five years after the end of &ldquo;Spectre,&rdquo; and Bond has retired in Jamaica until an old friend needs his help with a case. It stars Rami Malek, who will be Bond's arch-nemesis. The film is set to close Craig's long run as 007.
Check out the trailer below:

The actor made history when he became the first Egyptian-American to win an Academy Award for his role as Freddie Mercury in the aforementioned movie.

Actor Denzel Washington has played some of the biggest roles in Hollywood proving time and time again that he&rsquo;s one of the best thespians alive, and now he&rsquo;s going back to the classics as he leads a star-studded cast in a new adaptation of William Shakespeare&rsquo;s &ldquo;Macbeth&rdquo;.
Titled &ldquo;The Tragedy Of Macbeth&rdquo;, the movie is a reimagining of the famous tale, with Washington in the leading role, and Oscar-winning actress Frances McDormand as Lady Macbeth, whom we both see in the new teaser trailer.
We don&rsquo;t see much in the trailer, just some disjointed scenes of the cast, in a black and white look that makes it look more of a classic, which also evokes a sense of ambition for awards as well, which makes us excited about the quality of acting we&rsquo;re going to see.
Check out the trailer below:
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/HM3hsVrBMA4" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>The minute-long video elaborates to viewers the aesthetics that the film will follow as it seems to be entirely in black and white and shows off its gritty and dark themes. It also received an &ldquo;R&rdquo; rating revealing that there will be bloody action sequences that will be violent.
The trailer was very well received, it even got trending on social media, especially that many viewers were intrigued to see Washington in the leading role too.
Who's in it?
Along with Washington and McDormand in the leading roles, the movie also stars Corey Hawkins as Macduff, Moses Ingram as Lady Macduff, Harry Melling as Malcolm, Ralph Ineson as The Captain, and Brendan Gleeson as King Duncan.
What was said about the movie?
&ldquo;I think a very important thing about Joel&rsquo;s adaptation is that we are not calling it Macbeth, We&rsquo;re calling it The Tragedy of Macbeth, which I think is an important distinction. In Joel&rsquo;s adaptation, we are exploring the age of the characters and in our adaptation the Macbeths are older,&rdquo; Said McDormand in an Instagram Live last year.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re postmenopausal, we&rsquo;re past childbearing age. So that puts a pressure on their ambition to have the crown. I think the most important distinction is that it is their last chance for glory,&rdquo; she continued.
What was the classic story?&nbsp;
If you haven&rsquo;t read &ldquo;Macbeth&rdquo; before, it follows Three witches who tell the Scottish general Macbeth that he will be King of Scotland, out of greed and encouraged by his wife, he kills the king, taking over the throne, but over time he becomes paranoid killing more to protect his crown becoming a tyrant in the process.
When is it coming out?
The movie is set to release in cinemas on December 25, and January 14, 2022, on-demand.
When was the last time we saw something like this?
The tale of &ldquo;Macbeth&rdquo; has been adapted for the screen countless times, with 2015&rsquo;s &ldquo;Macbeth&rdquo; being the latest and also featured a star-studded cast including Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, David Thewlis, Sean Harris, Paddy Considine, and Elizabeth Debicki.
Check the trailer for that movie out below:
