HBO’s Watchmen, Morbius, & video game delays
Headlines for the week of 1/13/2020 to 1/18/2020.
HBO’s Watchmen will not have a season 2!
After a satisfying season 1, HBO announced this week that the property would not have a season 2 because the show creator, Damon Lindelof, has left the project. In an interview with USA Today, Lindelof stated that he told the story he wanted to tell and had “no interest” in making a season 2.
And after leaving us with a cliff hanger and everything.
Watchmen season 1 review here.
Morbius trailer looks legit!
Sony Pictures Entertainment released the trailer for MORBIUS. The upcoming film will feature Jared Leto as Morbius during his introduction to the spidey-verse as Sony begins to form their connected universe. Fan theorists believe this movie may have ties to the MCU. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
Video Game Delays!
This week CD Projekt announced that they would push the release date of Cyberpunk 2077 from April 16, 2020, to September 17, 2020, so that they could do more play testing.
Square Enix delayed two of its upcoming games this week. They announced they are delaying the Marvel’s Avengers game as well, making the new release date September 4, 2020, instead of May 2020.
Square Enix is also pushing the Final Fantasy VII Remake one month from March 3, 2020, to April 10, 2020. In a quote from Gamespot, Kitase said in a message from the studio. “I, on behalf of the whole team, want to apologize to everyone, as I know this means waiting for the game just a little bit longer. Thank you for your patience and continued support.”
