    • Batwoman Season 3 Adds Robin Givens as Jada Jet

    Robin Givens

    Even though the third season of Batwoman won't be bringing back Dougray Scott, it will be adding a new cast member in a key role. Deadline reports Robin Givens (Riverdale) will be joining the cast as Jada Jet, the powerful CEO for Jet Industries. The character is described as a passionate and hard-working woman who "has worked her way through life's ups and downs to climb her way to the top — all while being extremely protective over her impetuous son." She also has a dark past that forced her to give up her first-born child, which will surely come into play at some point in the series.

    The second season of Batwoman only just ended on June 27.

    Keep an Eye Out for Winter Guard Hints in Black Widow

    Black Widow - Red Guardian

    When you're sitting down to watch Black Widow this weekend, co-star David Harbour says you should keep an eye out for references to Red Guardian's comic book team the Winter Guard, which is basically Russia's response to The Avengers. Harbour told ComicBook.com:

    "I know a lot about those guys, the Sputnik, Crimson Dynamo, and Ursa. And, I think that if you watch the movie closely, I think you can find some stuff in there."

    Harbour is hoping that Red Guardian and these character may get even more attention somehow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The actor added, "I like this mirrored universe that these guys set up because we've seen The Avengers and what they can do... There's almost direct parallels in this Winter Guard to each of those characters, like Iron Man, Captain America, Hulk, and I would like to see what a mirrored universe in that way would look like and how that would function as a larger phase."

    Avengers Campus just keeps getting inundated with new Lokis. Ever since Loki premiered on Disney+, the theme park expansion at Disneyland has seen Loki in a TVA prisoner jumpsuit and then in a Variant jacket and tie.

Now if we could just get Alligator Loki at the park...
