Disney and Scarlett Johansson settle their lawsuit out of court and the Friday the 13th lawsuit reaches a decision, the next Jason Statham/Guy Ritchie movies gets a new title and release date, The Boys college spin-off is officially coming to Prime Video, Jumanji is getting a theme park ride in Italy, Babylon 5 is coming back on The CW and more in this week’s News Shotgun.

Although it had rave reviews from critics and fans, The Suicide Squad failed to live up to expectations at the box office over the weekend (despite topping the charts), possibly due to a combination of increased concern over the Delta variant, the R rating, and the simultaneous streaming on HBO Max.

Jungle Cruise easily took the top spot at the box office over the weekend with over $60 million worldwide and an additional $30 million from Disney+ while The Green Knight also had a strong opening for distributor A24.

It was a lackluster and underperforming weekend at the box office with M. Night Shyamalan’s Old taking the top spot, topping its release competitor Snake Eyes, but neither of those new films hit expectations while movies like Space Jam: A New Legacy, saw massive dropoffs compared to last weekend.

This week on the Everything Actioncast podcast, Zach and Chris talk about the latest epic trailer for Dune, the return of Dead Space, The Last of Us TV show, a bunch of DC casting news, Space Jam: A New Legacy, Wellington PD, Close Enough, Black Widow and more.

With Black Widow suffering the biggest drop-off between opening and second weekend in MCU history, Space Jam: A New Legacy was able to take the top spot at the box office over this past weekend.

The MCU returned to theaters with Black Widow this past weekend, which had a massive opening in theaters and on Disney+, which Disney provided a rare glimpse at the numbers for.

Black Widow finally brings the MCU back to theaters (and Disney+ Premiere Access) while the horror of Fear Street continues on Netflix with Part Two: 1978.
