Michelle Yeoh in Star Trek: Section 31. | Image: Paramount Plus It’s the first week of December, and the end of the year is coming in fast and with a lot to look forward to at theaters this month. That very cool-looking Lord of the Rings anime hits US theaters on the 13th; Sonic the Hedgehog 3 follows on the 20th; and I’m deeply excited to see Nosferatu on December 25th. (If you’re not with me on that last one, give Matt Zoller Seitz’s RogerEbert.com review of it a read and get back to me.) While I’m waiting to go be unnerved by Robert Eggers’ new spooky vampire movie, let’s take a look at some good trailers from the last week. Star Trek: Section 31 I’ll admit that the biggest appeal for me about this straight-to-streaming spy movie spinoff of Star Trek: Discovery is Michelle Yeoh as Emperor Philippa Georgiou. She’s just having so much fun in this trailer. The trailers haven’t revealed yet what threat she’ll be facing, other than being forced to do teamwork, but it seems like it’ll be pretty heavy on the rag-tag team of antiheroes action thing. The Olatunde Osunsanmi-directed movie also stars Omari Hardwick, Kacey Rohl, Sven Ruygrok, Humberly Gonzalez, Rob Kazinsky, and Sam Richardson. It premieres on Paramount Plus starting January 24th. Severance I was late to the Severance party, having finally finished it a few months ago, so I can only imagine how eager people who saw its cliffhanger ending have been to see the story continue. Well, the second season of creator Dan Erickson’s bizarro sci-fi drama is almost here, and it looks like it’s probably going to bring answers, with even more mystery heaped on top of it. All of the first season’s main characters, including Mark (Adam Scott), Dylan (Zach Cherry), Helly (Britt Lower), and Irving (John Turturro) are returning, and they’ll be joined by characters played by the likes of Alia Shawkat, Gwendoline Christie, and Bob Balaban. Season two of Severance premieres January 17th on Apple TV Plus. Invincible The third season of Invincible will see a stronger, older Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) tell off GDA director Cecil Stedman (Walton Goggins) and episodes that show creator Robert Kirkman hopes will each feel like a finale. And there’s no season break this time around. The show debuts with three episodes February 6th on Amazon Prime, with new episodes releasing every Thursday after until March 13th. The Wheel of Time The Wheel of Time continues its retelling of the Robert Jordan fantasy epic on March 13th next year. In its third season, the show follows Joshua Stradowski’s Rand al’Thor — the “Dragon Reborn” — and Moiraine Damodred (Rosamund Pike) as they go into the Aiel Waste. It’s been more than two decades since I read the book series, so I couldn’t spoil what happens there for you if I wanted to, but I seem to recall this was a fairly dark time in the series. The Gorge Who knows what evil is in The Gorge’s, uh, gorge, but it’s apparently contained well enough that humanity only needs two snipers — who aren’t allowed to interact with each other — stationed on either side of it to make sure it stays there. The snipers, Levi (Miles Teller) and Drasa (Anya Taylor-Joy), do interact and fall for eachother, then end up in the gorge. Oops! Scott Derrickson directs the movie, which also stars Sigourney Weaver, Sope Dirisu, and William Houston. It premieres February 14th on Apple TV Plus. Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX Giant robot anime fans rejoice: there’s a new Mobile Suit Gundam coming next year. It’s called Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX, and it’s produced by Khara, the studio behind the Rebuild of Evangelion films. The weird name references a Gundam called the gMS-Ω GQuuuuuuX. The show will follow a highschooler — named Yuzuriha “Machu” Amate (Tomoyo Kurosawa) — who learns to co-pilot the building-sized, sword-wielding robot with pilot Shuji Ito (Shimba Tsuchiya). Some of its episodes will head to Japanese theaters on January 17th.

On Sunday, Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., pushed back against a line of questioning and prompts from CNN's "State of the Union" about President-elect Donald Trump's defense secretary nominee, Pete Hegseth, and whether he has a drinking problem.

Lisa Kudrow has been in the spotlight ever since she played Phoebe on the hit TV show Friends. Known for her quirky personality and sense of humor, the actress has also appeared in films like The Comeback and Mad About You. Recently, Kudrow joined the cast of a new Netflix series, No Good Deed, which she filmed shortly after the death of her Friends co-star Matthew Perry. She explained how Perry’s passing affected her acting and her relationship with Ray Romano, with whom she had always hoped to work. Lisa Kudrow struggled with grief in playing her role on “No Good Deed” Lisa Kudrow with Matthew Perry/Everett Kudrow and Perry were not just co-stars for 10 years but also close friends. Perry passed away in October 2023 from the acute effects of ketamine, and it shook Kudrow. In No Good Deed, Kudrow portrays a character experiencing grief, and she shared that sometimes the boundaries between her emotions and those of her character are blurred because she was experiencing grief from Perry’s death. “In some scenes, things started to overlap, and I couldn’t tell if it was me or the character,” she explained. Working alongside Ray Romano likely helped Kudrow process her grief. Romano shared in an interview with PEOPLE that the two bonded over their insecurities. “We really had a good time talking about who was more insecure than the other. And I win,” he joked, adding that it was comforting to see someone else with similar thoughts.             View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by Lisa Kudrow (@lisakudrow)   More about Lisa Kudrow’s character in “No Good Deed” Talking about her relationship with Romano, Kudrow said, “he’s everything I thought he would be. He’s easy, effortless, and a fantastic actor.” She recalled watching him on other projects and thinking she’d love to work with him. When the opportunity finally came, Kudrow admitted she was initially nervous. However, Romano quickly proved to be a supportive and talented co-star. Lisa Kudrow with her Friends co-star/Everett In No Good Deed, Kudrow and Romano play the roles of longtime couple Lydia and Paul who decide to leave their longtime home and move elsewhere. Their real estate troubles begin when they list their home for sale, they are also forced to face their past and grief. The show premieres Dec. 12 on Netflix.
