In partnership with

In today’s newsletter, we’re exploring franchises that are reinventing themselves. Our headliner follows our A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms interview, in which we learn about a much lighter version of Westeros that’s receiving quite a bit of notice from Game of Thrones fans. Don’t miss our review of the first episode, the timeline explained, or our article about the movie that wasn’t allowed to be mentioned on set.

In the film world, we’re witnessing an important moment in the continued expansion of the Star Wars universe under new leadership, and our article featured below asks whether having someone else at the helm will also allow a new generation of fans to determine how new movies and TV shows will be received. It’s never too late to reinvent!
