The Falcon And The Winter Soldier is Marvel’s next big release following WandaVision. This series will be less experimental, or so we believe, and will be grounded firmly in the normal reality of the MCU. The series will follow Captain America’s best friends as they struggle with his legacy and fight off former villain Baron Zemo. 

Head writer for the series Malcolm Spellman recently sat down with Entertainment Weekly to speak a little about the series. He revealed that the series will tie into at least three future MCU projects. This is no surprise since WandaVision set up two series itself, Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness and Captain Marvel 2.

“I can think of three that I’m not allowed to talk about,” Spellman told Entertainment Weekly when asked about projects that The Falcon And The Winter Soldier will tie into. The new series hits Disney + this Friday.

“Well, all I can tell you is that the ride that we go on is very unexpected,” Skogland said. “What was thought what was going to happen after Endgame – because we thought that we were going to go down a certain path – we did not go down that path. If there’s a door number one, two, and three? We definitely don’t choose door number one.”

It isn’t often that Halle Berry shares pictures of her children. The superstar and icon has kept her kids out of the limelight, for the most part, allowing them to live a less hectic life. In fact, many people don’t even know what Berry’s kids look like. Well, on Berry’s daughter’s birthday, the actress made sure to give the world a glimpse of her baby. 

No matter how many times I tell her I love her, I love her more than that, ” wrote Berry as the caption to an Instagram post for her daughter. “Happy 13th Birthday Nahla Boo 💜.” 

Nahla’s father is model Gabriel Aubry, Berry’s ex. She has always strived to keep her kids out of the spotlight, even if her job thrusts her into it. She once lobbied to get an anti-paparazzi bill passed in California when it came to children.

Berry has had nothing but amazing things to say about motherhood. “It’s wildly affected my life. I haven’t worked as much since I had my daughter,” she told Hello! magazine in 2012. “I have another priority and she’s it. But I do want to send her the clear message that working is important and doing something that you love ― that validates you, or makes you feel you are giving yourself to the world ― is really important, so I will keep working.”

Days ago, Casanova expressed his disappointment in people who he believed were supposed to be in his corner. Since his arrest back in December, both the rapper and his wife, Jasmere Corbett, have taken to social media to call out people in their lives who have mysteriously disappeared following the news of Casanova’s run-in with the law. He remains incarcerated as prosecutors attempt to build a case against him, as they accuse Casanova of several charges including being a drug trafficker and a member of the Untouchable Gorilla Stone Nation gang.

Casanova has denied the charges against him and has shared on social media that he’s sure that he’ll return home sooner than later. However, VladTV reports that the rapper has been denied bond once again, and it seems that Casanova’s previous interview with Nick Cannon was mentioned during his recent bail hearing.

The outlet reportedly obtained audio of the hearing where a prosecutor brings up Cannon and Casanova’s chat where the rapper said that he’s “still ape,” interpreted to mean that he’s a member of the Untouchable Gorilla Stone Nation. With the information provided, the judge decided to keep Casanova under lock and key until his trial begins. 

Yesterday (March 16), we reported on Casanova sharing his ire about not receiving support while in jail. “IF YOU AIN’T SEND ME NO MONEY OR CHECK IN ON ME AND YOU SUPPOSEDLY MY MANS, SUCK MY D*CK [eclamation point emoji] AND THAT GOES FOR ANYBODY!” Listen to the hearing in full below and catch highlights around the 8-minute and 42-minute marks.

Former NFL star Keyshawn Johnson revealed the passing of his first-born child, Maia, on social media this week. The details of her passing have not been revealed, and Johnson asks that the media allow their family privacy and time to grieve. 

“It is with incredible sadness that I have to share the news about the passing of my beautiful Daughter Maia. Maia, as my first born child, has been the joy of my, and her Mother Shikiri’s, life,” Johnson wrote on Twitter. “She came into our lives just as we were both coming of age as adults and has been a constant beloved presence for both of us. We are heartbroken and devastated by her loss. Shikiri, Maia’s siblings, our family and me appreciate your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.”

Johnson was a college superstar who got drafted No. 1 overall in 1996. He spent his first few seasons with the New York Jets before playing with the Buccaneers, Cowboys, and Panthers. He won a championship with the Buccaneers. After 11 years, Johnson retired after the 2006 season. He then started working for ESPN as an analyst. Prayers go out to his family during this difficult and trying time.
