It’s only been October for two days, but that hasn’t stopped Sexyy Red from fully embracing the Halloween spirit. “Spooky SZN” she captioned a tweet where she shared photos of her costume for the beloved holiday. This year it seems she’s sporting a black-colored Spiderman bodysuit for her costume. In the attached pictures she doesn’t focus as much on showing off her costume as she does showing off her body.

Fans discussing the costume unsurprisingly cracked jokes. “Never thought I’d see young thug in a Spider-Man outfit,” a massively upvoted comment reads. The joke pokes fun at a largely held belief that Red looks very similar to Young Thug. These jokes run throughout the comment section with another one reading “Damn I aint know thugger had a WAGON like dat.” Despite the jokes and hate in the comments, some fans did show up to show some love to Sexyy Red. Some did so by pointing out how good she looks in the costume while others focused on the quality of her recent musical output. Check out the entire post below.

The Future Of ‘El Muerto,’ Bad Bunny’s ‘Spider-Man’ Spin-Off Movie, Is Reportedly Uncertain

In April 2022, it was announced that Bad Bunny would play the lead role in El Muerto, a Spider-Man spin-off movie. The film was set for a January 12, 2024 release, but now its future appears unclear.

Deadline reports that now, Sony Pictures has removed El Muerto from its release schedule. The publication notes, “We’re hearing that the film remains in development, but that between Bad Bunny’s tour schedule and the ongoing WGA strike, it makes finalizing a date complicated.”

Now, The Book Of Clarence is set to take over the January 12 release slot. The Jeymes Samuel-directed and LaKeith Stanfield-starring movie was previously set for a September 22, 2023 release.

IGN previously described the El Muerto character, “In the comics, El Muerto is a super-powered wrestler who has had their mask and abilities passed down through the generations. To become worthy, new wrestlers would need to prove themselves against El Dorado. Juan-Carlos Estrada Sanchez was one of these chosen descendants, but he was unable to fight El Dorado when his father Marcus Estrada presented him. As a result, Marcus sacrificed himself to save his son. Following the tragic death, El Dorado would give Juan-Carlos ten years to become stronger to face him again and earn the right to become El Muerto.”

Metro Boomin season is once again in full effect thanks to the Atlanta-based producer’s work on the Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse soundtrack. It’s an undeniably sad time of year for the creative as he mourns the one-year anniversary of his mother’s shocking and untimely death.

The animated film’s soundtrack finds Metro linking up with some of the industry’s finest, including 21 Savage, 2 Chainz, and Offset. While many titles on the 13-track effort are joint ones, the closing song, “Nas Morales” finds Nas operating solo over an infectious beat from the Savage Mode hitmaker. His lyrics include various spider references, such as “Shoot a web, glidin’ through the sky, through the air / Dancin’ through the buildings, Fred Astaire, bunch of skyscrapers everywhere” on the chorus.

Miles Morales returns this Friday with the release of Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. However, it’s the film’s soundtrack that has many non-Marvel fans ecstatic. With Metro Boomin at the helm of the upcoming project, he’s undoubtedly brought in a number of his close collaborators and friends, many of which are already staples on our regular playlists. He previously confirmed James Blake, Don Toliver, and Future would appear on the project. However, he’s unveiled more names as we get closer to the soundtrack’s release date.

On Tuesday (May 30th), Metro Boomin confirmed a slew of other stars who will grace the project. His buddy Nav will appear on the tracklist, along with Coi Leray, Lil Uzi Vert, Offset, JID, Swae Lee, and more. He also tapped international stars like WizKid and Toian to flesh out the Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse tracklist.

A post shared by Young Metro 3 Times 💔 (@metroboomin)

Metro Boomin will bring on some of rap’s most revered lyricists for the upcoming Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse soundtrack. The St. Louis producer shared Weezy’s Spidersona on his Instagram post. “The best rapper alive Lil Wayne is confirmed for the @spiderversemovie soundtrack available everywhere June 2nd!!” he captioned the post. Afterward, he confirmed Metro also confirmed Nas as a feature on the forthcoming effort.

As impressive as the features are already, it wouldn’t be a Metro Boomin effort without a collaboration from 21 Savage, who he also confirmed would appear on the tracklist. Additionally, A$AP Rocky, who he apparently has loads of music with, will also appear on the project. We’ll also find Metro Boomin and 2 Chainz connect for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse OST. At this rate, it seems like Metro won’t be releasing a single, leaving us waiting until Friday’s release date. 

Nas, 21 Savage & A$AP Rocky Confirmed

The star-studded tracklist will certainly have bangers to ride out to this summer. Even though it’s been a few months since Metro Boomin released Heroes & Villains, his upcoming soundtrack for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse is already shaping up to be an incredible follow-up by the features alone. Check out his posts below.

PlayStation Showcase 2023 Recap: Mind-Blowing “Spider-Man 2” Gameplay & More

by

PlayStation Showcase 2023 is an event from the gaming giant that players all over the world anticipated. On May 24th, 2023, it aired in its entirety, addressing the rumors, leaks, and speculations that ran rampant before the big reveal. Typically, these showcases intend to provide gamers with a glimpse into the biggest projects. However, smaller indie games also get some shine which is equally important and often offers more niche yet enjoyable experiences for players. The showcase was simulcast across PlayStation’s YouTube and Twitch channels ensuring gamers from all time zones could watch it live.

Thousands Tuned in for PlayStation Showcase 2023

PlayStation Showcase 2023 started streaming at 3:15 p.m. ET. The Showcase itself began at 4:00 p.m. There were already over 50,000 viewers watching 45 minutes before the show began. As 4:00 p.m. got closer, the viewer count only rose higher. By 3:50 p.m. over 180,000 people were watching. This number only included YouTube viewers. It also streamed on their official Twitch channel, content creator channels, other gaming platforms, and other countries too. Saying this event was a “big deal” would be an understatement.

Mixed Reactions To PlayStation Showcase 2023

PlayStation Showcase 2023 featured trailers for over 30 games. Those who had predictions found themselves satisfied as well as disappointed. The latter comes in the latest entries in the Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy series. However, the most anticipated reveal was Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, which showcased gameplay for the first time. Unfortunately, there was nothing revealed about a sequel to the universally celebrated Ghost Of Tsushima or Marvel’s Wolverine. Many viewers were disappointed that time was given to showcase Street Fighter 6 and Assassin’s Creed Mirage since so much information about the latter has already been revealed. The most surprising announcement came from something called “Project Q” which allows players to play PS5 games on-the-go. Next, there was a reveal of wireless earbuds from PlayStation that would pair well with the portable gaming device. 

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2: The Star Of PlayStation Showcase 2023

The biggest highlight of PlayStation Showcase 2023 was the gameplay reveal for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Many players tuned in for this game specifically, which features both Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Players were pleased to know that switching between the two characters could be done with the press of a button. Players who are anticipating the release of the movie Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse know this version of Peter will be in the movie. Considering the multiverse concept, maybe the game version of Miles will be in the movie, too. 

Sony is Going All-In with Spider-Man Content

PlayStation Showcase 2023 reaffirmed the popularity of one of the company’s most celebrated game series, Marvel’s Spider-Man. The second game in their series, Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, features songs from Jaden Smith. The first, a solo cut titled “I’m Ready” and the other is a collaborative song with Kid Cudi titled “On My Own.” Several songs from the game’s score, composed by John Paesano, pair hip-hop’s percussion with eloquent orchestral sounds. With Metro Boomin executive producing the soundtrack for Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, it sounds like the creators are doing right by Miles by translating his authenticity beyond the screen. We’ll have to see how it all pans out when the movie comes out when the game comes out in the fall. What games from PlayStation Showcase 2023 are you looking forward to most? Let us know in the comments section.

Zendaya Left “High And Dry” On Date With Tom Holland

by

Zendaya and Tom Holland are going viral for an awkward moment that happened on their recent date in Europe. Holland, famous for his portrayal of Spider-Man, is known for his heroic character fighting for justice. However, recent events suggest that his real-life actions may not align with his on-screen persona. During a trip to Venice, the British actor was captured in photos seemingly neglecting to assist his girlfriend, Zendaya, as they boarded a water taxi. The couple, both 26 years old, enjoyed romantic moments such as a gondola ride and sightseeing. However, Holland’s chivalry appeared to falter when it came to helping Zendaya onto the boat. Instead, he effortlessly boarded the taxi, leaving Zendaya to navigate the transfer alone. This proved challenging due to her tight maxi-dress.

Holland and Zendaya’s relationship began in 2016 when they were cast as love interests in the MCU film Spider-Man: Homecoming. In the film, Zendaya portrays Peter Parker’s perennial love interest, MJ. The couple has recently been rumored to be engaged, but they’ve denied the gossip. However, they have allegedly purchased a £3 million, six-bedroom home in Richmond, South West London. Both actors are expected to reprise their roles in a new Spider-Man trilogy, adding to their successful careers within the Marvel universe. Despite Tom Holland’s slight falter in chivalry in Venice, the pair has become quite the it couple in recent years.

Zendaya and Tom Holland Are Relationship Goals

Zendaya and Tom Holland have emerged as a prominent young Hollywood couple, captivating the attention of many. Their relationship appears to be thriving, as depicted in a video where the duo is seen enjoying themselves. Zendaya exudes style with a halter top and glasses, while Holland opts for a casual look in a green hoodie. Sharing her excitement on Instagram, Zendaya wrote about the fun they had, mentioning how their voices were nearly lost after the experience of attending an Usher concert, a childhood dream come true.

This heartfelt moment showcases the genuine connection between the two. They stand out among the few Hollywood couples who seem devoid of controversy or drama. They may even be deemed uneventful by those seeking entertainment through sensationalism. Nevertheless, Zendaya emphasizes the love and support she receives from Holland, expressing her appreciation for such a nurturing relationship. At a recent “For Your Consideration” event for her successful HBO series Euphoria, the actress highlighted the significance of having that kind of support and love in one’s life. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news on Tom Holland and Zendaya’s romance.
