Deadpool 2
Collider reports the recent reshoots on Deadpool have added more scenes with Cable and Domino, in response to allegedly otherwise-positive test screenings of the film.
Venom
Deadline reports Sope Aluko has joined the cast of Sony’s Venom in a currently undisclosed role.
Wendell & Wild
Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele are teaming with Henry Selick and Netflix for a stop-motion animated feature about two scheming, demon brothers. MTV reports the demonic brethren will be dogged by a monster-hunting nun named Sister Holly and her two acolytes, a pair of goth kids named Kat and Raoul.
Flashpoint
Omega Underground reports the Flash movie plans to film in Vancouver. Maybe he’ll bump into his TV counterpart along the way?

Isle of Dogs
The cast discusses their corresponding dogs, Creature Comforts-style.
Game of Thrones Spinoffs
Speaking to Italian GQ (via Heroic Hollywood), Kit Harington says it’s unlikely he’ll be involved with whatever HBO has planned for Westerosi adventures beyond Game of Thrones:
I think there’s going to be spin-offs, but I’m not going to be involved in any of it. The great thing about Thrones for HBO is that you can sell it in a totally different way. You could set it 300 years earlier and save a load of money because we [the cast] are very expensive now.
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
Ross Lynch has been cast as the always charming Harvey Kinkle, “the son of a coal miner, a dreamboat and a dreamer, completely unaware of the dark forces conspiring to keep him and Sabrina apart.” [Variety]

Gordon and Bullock try to stay one step ahead as Jerome (guest star Cameron Monaghan) zeros in on his next target. Meanwhile, Nygma hosts a riddle game show in the Narrows and faces his toughest challenger in Lee Thompkins, and Penguin goes to see Butch with a proposal in the all-new A Dark Knight: Mandatory Brunch Meeting.
Once Upon a Time
The series finale is titled, “Leaving Storybrooke,” according to Adam Horowitz on Twitter.

DISCUSSION
I kinda walked away from Gotham during the second season. I really feel like I should walk back, but not bother to try to catch up with what I’ve missed, but just embrace the insanity like it’s a new show.
