I excited for tomorrow

To keep yourself alive AND stay sane you need an internal Senshi AND a Sam Vimes.

Senshi is there to remind you to eat, but Sam Vimes is there to parry your extended relatives rancid political takes at family events and keep you from going insane

@luposcainus asked: " i can get you supplies, after all.. you seem to be short on them at the moment mate."

There was no need to look at the supply pile that rested just beside Dale's RV. No reason to check for loose crumbs in the many tents that made up the campsite. Caspian knew it just as well as Shane, as much as all the others in their group did. Food was gone. Water was running low. Patience was wearing thin. Bandages had been used up - several were wrapped around Shane's knuckles, bruised and blooded from a tough ambush against a lone Walker. Medicines and aids were on their very last offering, barely a sip to sooth so much as a sore throat. Short was their stock, and everyone knew it. On borrowed time was everyone, the very thought of further rationing out food and medical on Shane's mind, an almost reality.

Considered part of the group, no matter what Shane's actual opinion on the matter was, Caspian was there to stay. Was already a trusted member, a set of skills that proved to do more good than any bad Shane worried over. Caspian had helped him out on several occasions. Sacrificed all that could be for himself and the others, earned Shane's respect, even if the deputy didn't say so, hid the honor beneath a glare and an uncertain glance.

"We're more than short. Hell, Caspian, we're almost starvin'. This keeps up, we won't last another week. Not like this." Shane agreed, inspecting the shared stock pile that Dale was on duty to keep watch upon, an old carboard box of jerky packets and a couple of granola bars.

Knelt to the ground, dust gathered at his thighs and knees, Shane lifted his gaze from the small samplings to Caspian, eyed the other with a look that spoke volumes, broke barriers in the quietest of ways, subtle.

"You can't go out alone. Nobody goes out alone. Halfbie or not, you won't make it ten feet if you leave this place just by your lonesome."

Shane stood, ran a hand through his sweaty curls, collected the wetness and flicked it in the direction of the Georgia clay.

Shane promised, gears turning already in his head, a plan started. "I'll go with you. You'll need the back up. Best to be just the two of us, anyways. I don't wanna scare anyone, have them start ration' out jerky bits. We go in, we get out. Don't grab nothin' we don't need. No need wastin' our time and energy. I just need to grab my knife. It's in my tent. How about you? You ready to go, Caspian? I can give you a few minutes, but that sun's settin' awfully fast this time of year. We better get a move out before it gets too dark. Any place will be crowded with Geeks soon enough."

Sorry for dropping this in a bunch of different tags but there's a really promising new music project called V-Kei Sentai Executioner I haven't seen many people talking about yet, and I'd like to share it! :D This is the song Meizu, which is their second single.

The shortest possible plot pitch I can give is that a group of twelve men make a bargain with demons in order to stop a perpetual time loop where 1999 never ends, as said time loop will eventually cause the world to be destroyed. At the cost of their own souls, this gives them the power to turn into demonic henshin heroes whose music can banish the agents of an evil god responsible for ending the world. It's just started but it looks super promising and both of the songs are incredible! There's also been some trailers for the drama tracks and character introductions on their Youtube channel. We're supposed to be getting the full drama tracks soon and I'm hype for them just based on all the trailers.

Here's their official website and Twitter if you would like more info! This is going to be a plot-heavy joseimuke multimedia project in the same vein as Hypmic or Paradox Live. So if you liked those (especially if you liked Jyushi's songs since, well, same genre) you should really give it a try. This is the most excited I've been for a multimedia project in a long time and I really want to see it take off.

Also: tapping in @missmadril here as my usual partner in crime for boosting these series—

Whoever heard of a tenured professor quitting his job to become a professional assassin?

[kiahna]

Underrated things about My Lady Jane that I need to vent.

- Guildford flinching and turning his head away every time the executioner brought the axe down near Jane.

- Guildford catching Jane when she faints and the way he puts his face so close to her. Is he whispering sweet nothings?

- Jane welcomes her Ethian friends and Charles is the one to lead them in. Charles. From the Ethian bar. Our bestest Ethian friend.

- Stan’s look of absolute joy and menace and his voice crack when he shouts for Jane and Guildford to kiss at the wedding.

- The sound Seymour makes when Dudley smacks him on the face.

“Smacky smacky bottom”.

- Jane, the queen, was laying unconscious in the yard in broad daylight and no one noticed?

- Wet Dream by Wet Leg.

- The Ethian entrance to the gala. Perfection.

- Jane’s wedding dress. Absolutely stunning.

I have a million and one thoughts about this show and no one to talk to it about.

With Ford being more inclined with the nature of study and discovery, he became the book nerd his father loves. But for Stan, who had nothing to say on his report card, had no choice but to survive the hateful trials his father gave him.

And as their paths diverged, they still try to fit in what they believe who they were. The one with the streets tailed with a record of crimes, and the one with his books under his nose has a demon inside his head. It wasn’t supposed to be like this.

Mistakes were done, but their life wasn’t. They have to live, and for better or worse, time has changed them.

Who would’ve thought knucklehead Stan could repair majority of the portal with only one journal, not knowing half of it was written with invisible ink? And who would’ve thought poindexter Ford could manage to survive this far and in shape, against all the uncertain dangers across multiple dimensions?

To think Stan managed to trick the very demon that haunts their universe with his “good-for-nothing” brain, and for Ford to be the one strong enough to pull the trigger.

Three decades and it has come to this. The man with the plan and his executioner, and the father would never believe who is who.

Who would’ve thought indeed.

[n30ngutz]

Welp- Currently making an AU now because I can’t get this idea out of my head,

Not sure what to call this AU yet but I’ll give it a run down for Ford’s part at least for this lil Idea:

Ford and his family come from a VERY rare alien species within space that was known to be found in the dark of places and float around like jellyfish at sea. This creature can be dangerous however, since they don’t exactly have an understand of any danger they hardly make an effort to raise their guard up. They all float as a community, and never leave anyone behind.

Stanford was special, his unique gift of being able to see an object down to its molecule, but to break into his own conscious outside of the species to begin his own adventures. He begins to study life outside of his normal void-ish life and tries to introduce his people to the idea of other elements then light, electricity and an empty space they all float in. Evidently they continue to float around, and being adamant he attempts to show his people a world so beautiful they’d have to change their mind!

So he searched, floated, and was hunted constantly for his extreme rarity [his people produce unlimited electricity and can be used to power ships/cities/etc] but nonetheless has found a planet so tranquil he managed to have his kind come to the planet. However, in the process he had not considered the interaction of the planet with such a large group of his people, that the moment the all had interacted with the planet at such quick speeds-

What had went from a flash of white, had become black. Before anyone else realized it not only had the people now been completely destroyed by the impact, but so did the planet he tried to show them. The only part of his species that had survived was his family containing Dipper, Mabel, Stan, and Shermie; Stanford/Stanley/Shermie’s parents, nor Mabel and Dipper’s parents survived being apart of the crowd.

This absolutely fucked with Ford’s brain. Now realizing the true danger of his ideas, the newfound understanding of his people’s abilities, he essentially captured and held his family hostage, absolutely believing this was meant to happen and that he was bound to become an abominable executioner that must protect his family. Although in reality his family is not only terrified of him, but must follow his orders should they want to face a similar fate to all the enemies they’ve slain over the years.

Still a WIP and might draw more we’ll see how this goes!!

[galaxythreads]

I still can’t stop thinking about Dick. Like, he’s gonna have to quit work right? Gonzalez was giving him a hard time at the thought of him and Micah sleeping together, imagine his whole squad finding out he was sleeping with the Executioner? His co-workers finding out he was sleeping with a serial killer and necrophiliac, and had no idea??

The entire Wayne family is gonna need a grippy sock vacation at this point uwu

Lol XD Yeah, the waynes are definitely having a Go Of It TM

We stan Gonzalez, who is the meanest man alive, and consistently proves to be so, even as things fall apart later on🫡🫡🫡🫡

[ask-mister-mystery]

A drabble for @hexarcana!

“Mines itchy…”

“Quit complaining Sixer, at least yours doesn’t have a cat on it.”

“Both of you stop complaining. Now smile and say ‘Precious Hanukkah Memories!’”

The two boys have barely time to eke out the words ‘Precious Hanukkah Wha?’ when a blinding flash fills the room accompanied by a high pitched whine.

Mabel barks out a satisfied laugh as her bewildered great nephews rub their eyes and stagger about, dazed.

“And to think Dipper told me I should get rid of this baby!” Mabel said contentedly as she patted the bulky camera slung around her neck.

“Mabel, I bought you a cell-phone with a camera on! Why don’t you use that?” came the reply from the Mystery Shack’s living room.

“Doesn’t know what he’s talking about…” Mabel said happily as she wafted a hand in front of her face to dissipate the smell of burning plastic.

“Can we take these off Graunty Mabel?” Stan said grumpily, as he tugged the arm of the sweater. His featured a cat wearing a kippah with the words ‘MEOWZEL TOV’ above it.

“Not yet…” Mabel tutted. “Besides, my favourite little scallywag is dropping by in a moment.”

Stans face blanches.

“No. You don’t mean you invited Aggie? She can’t see us like this!”

Ford steps forward, as if to act as the voice of reason.

“Graunty Mabel. We’re 13 now. Technically teenagers. Nearly adults! We can’t be in these when Aggie’s here! She’s a friend! And y’know…a girl?” Ford says, adding the last part with a knowing nudge in the ribs to Stan. Stan furrows his brow at his twin in response.

“What am I then, chopped liver?” Mabel snorts derisively. “Besides, it’s the holidays, the whole point is to be embarassed! Plus I need to show Aggie the best part of your sweater Ford.”-

She reaches out and presses a button that has been hot glued onto the shoulder.

The menorah on the front lights up with nine LEDs. The words ‘TIME TO GET LIT’ are below it.

“Kill me now.” Ford says.

Before Mabel can answer back there’s a knock at the door.

“Ooh! That’ll be them!” Mabel says delightedly, clapping her hands together with glee.

Stan and Ford look at each other like they’re prisoners awaiting the arrival of the executioner.

“Come in, come in…can I get you anything? Cocoa, hot chocolate, peppermint schnapps? HA! Ah, we have fun here…” Mabel says as she bundles both Aggie and Olive into the Mystery Shack’s kitchen.

“Uh…hi Aggie…hi Ms Yearling…” Ford said rubbing the back of his neck, looking as though he was willing the ground to swallow him up.

Stan was beet red. Ford jabs him in the ribs.

“Hi. Um. Merry Christmas.” Stan squeaks out.

“The boys are just a little shy this morning. From what I’ve been told by Caryn they don’t go all in like their Graunty Mabel does.” Mabel says, nudging Olive affectionately.

“So why aren’t they with her for the holidays?” Olive asks, looking at the boys with a smile that threatened to spill over into a laugh.

“Poor dear. Her sister, you know the one out in Atlantic City? Her husband ran off with their dentist. Terrible business. Anyway, Caryn has to run out to her to pick up the pieces and asks me if I can take care of these two!” she beams down at Stan and Ford.

“Well I’m glad that they’re in the holiday spirit.” Olive says, tongue very much in cheek.

“Ha! You should wait until I show you what I made for Dipper…” Mabel, said ushering Olive out of the room, leaving Aggie in the room with the twins.

“Not one word Aggie…” Stan said.

“I don’t know what you mean Stan…” Aggie smiled faux innocently. “I think this is the best Christmas present I could ask for.”

“Technically these are Hanukkah sweaters Aggie…” Ford said, pushing the glasses up the brim of his nose.

“Then I hope Mabel makes you wear them for all eight nights.” Aggie said, the innocent smile devolving into a smirk.

Stan and Ford exchanged glances, as though they hadn’t thought of this possibility.

“Seriously though guys”- She reaches forward and draws them both into a group hug. “It’s so good to see you both again. After the summer we had, I was counting down until we could see each other again.”

“Stan more than most.” Ford mumbled.

“So what do you usually do for the holidays then Aggie?” Stan asks loudly, hoping that he could distract if she had heard Ford.

“We don’t usually get up to much…Ma said that she thinks Santa Claus is a government conspiracy to discredit UFO sightings during December so we just exchange gifts. Set traps for any intruders. The usual. A quiet Christmas.” She shrugs.

“Your Graunty Mabel though?” Aggie said, looking around the decoration festooned room. “She seems to have enough holiday spirit for the whole town.”

That was certainly true. Garlands of tinsel were pinned from the ceiling, so that they draped like bunting. A large plate of holiday cookies were on the kitchen table. (“I’ve got Dreidls, Christmas Trees and also some jack o’ lanterns that must have snuck in there from Halloween!”) Worst of all was an animatronic Rudolf on top of the fridge that blared out ‘Grandma got run over by a reindeer’ if you got too close.

It was a lot to take in. But Stan and Ford were starting to realise that after over three decades of being frozen out from having a family holiday, Mabel was ecstatic to have everyone back again. Her brother. Stan and Ford. Even Olive. While the sweaters she had made were itchy and goofy looking, it would be churlish not to see the love towards them both in the gift.

“Yeah…” Stan said, as though realising that. “We’re lucky to have her, y’know?…Don’t tell her I said that.”

“Too late!” Mabel laughs as she rounds the corner. She’s joined by both Olive and Grunkle Mason. They’re all fairly rosy cheeked, as though the peppermint schnapps Mabel had mentioned earlier had at last made an appearance. Olive and Mason are both wearing Mabel-made holidays sweaters (Where did she find the time to time to knit all of these? Stan thought). Mason’s has a dino on with nine candles coming up where the armoured spines would be, it reads ‘MENORAHSAURUS.’ Olive’s (which to Mabel’s surprise and delight she had put on immediately) is one of Bigfoot wearing a Santa hat, it reads ‘SQUATCHIN’ THROUGH THE SNOW.’

“Ma…are you okay?” Aggie asks bemusedly.

“Tis the season…” Olive shrugs back, before giggling at something Mason whispers in her ear.

“Before I forget Aggie, I have a little something for you too…” Mabel smiles as she hands over a wrapped present to the girl.

Aggie excitedly tears off the brightly coloured wrapping paper to reveal another sweater.

“Consider yourself lucky Aggie.” Mabel remarked. “I only make these for family, so consider you and Olive honorary members of the Pines clan.” she claps a hand on Olive’s shoulder.

Aggie looks at the sweater. It features a christmas tree with a hat brim at the bottom with the words ‘WE WITCH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS’ (Where did she find the time to think up all these puns? she thought) before putting it on.

“Thanks Ms Pines.”

“No worries ya scallywag. Now we’re all here though, it’s time for a photo!”

Numerous people groan.

“Now come on gloomy guses! When you three are all old and grey you’ll look back on these memories!” she nods down to the twins and Aggie.

Mabel takes the camera off from her neck and sets it on the kitchen table.

“Now everyone bunch on in, I think I’ve put the timer on…”

Mabel and Dipper, Olive and Aggie, Stan and Ford all shuffle up close together.

“Everyone say ‘Precious Holiday Memories!’”

“Precious Holiday Wha?”- everyone says as the camera flash simultaneously blinds everyone temporarily.

HOLY SHIT A1 YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFEEEE. My most anticipated anime release of the fucking year finally here and this first episode was incredible. So many references, lore, worldbuilding and then that amazing debut from Saber at the end. I’m mad af FGO spoiled his name for me, I like trying to figure out their true names on my own, but pure chills from that last 5 minutes or so with yet another Sawano masterclass.

I love how strange Fake is basically an amalgamation of Type-Moon lore. So much cool shit in this first episode. The Luvia, Reines and Tohsaka pictures in Waver’s office. Einzbern name drop, in n out canon to Type moon universe..ah this had it all, it was kind of overwhelming and my hype is hard to contain lol. I have no idea where this story is going to go and I love that because there’s endless possibilities in this world. Really curious to learn more about why the US is doing this holy grail war and the various ideologies involved. Looks like we got two competing groups of American mages.

Loving caster already, he and Francesca are so unhinged. Just a ton of different characters and archetypes in this which shouldn’t come as a surprise since it’s by the Durarara and Dead Mount Deathplay author. Hopefully he can balance everyone and give them some characterisation. Francesca in particular has a great design and seems to know a lot about Artoria and the other servants.. who could she be

Speaking of Artoria, we got her in 2024 updated A1 visuals and she looks fucking beautiful omg. Only a view from behind but man. It’s dope that Ayaka’s saber is an Artoria disciple and a huge stan like me lol. That Excalibur was so fucking fire, nothing as crazy as Gil vs Enkidu but I know the rest of the show is gonna be fire. Wonder how they’ll get out of being arrested?

Ending got me really hype too because it looks like we got executioners? Strange Fake world is unique since Dead apostles and heroic spirits both exist in this world so this is gonna be fun.

Release schedule is irregular but I’m ok with it as long as A1 keep cooking.

[almacambiondaughterofsaleos]

Can I take more potshots at the critical community?

You’re right, some users really are cruel and self-centered. Unwilling to change themselves and take the pill.

Nobody’s kidding when bringing up harmless opinions aka nonfactual words from literal years ago is petty, stupid and even irrelevant/meaningless. Especially if that person’s actually changed and wants nothing to do with their past.

And I stg we owe most people an apology for siding with the liars and mainly overly sensitive idiots who either doctored evidence, use out of context images or have none at all. We honestly assumed these content creators were the evil bad guys but it really is the rabid minority calling foul at times. What if these people really were just saying harmless opinions and/or straight well sourced facts? But these butthurt low IQ fools really do be acting like judge, jury and executioner all because their feelings were slighted. I’m not going to mention which popular creator it was as an example in case the stans invade your blog. But I feel like I’m more levelheaded than these fools and their mob mentality bs.

They really do be high ASF on their position as “critics and trustworthy” sources. Until they’ve been exposed for being as bad if not worse than those they’ve been “critiquing.”

But I greatly respect the “targeted” users for ignoring the misinformation trying to tear them down and their character being misconstrued/slandered.

TLDR, no need to get riled up over inoffensive words or target those with innocuous mild opinions! Just filter and block for fuck’s sake! Even my teenage self went on blocking and filtering sprees, giving out warning on what I dislike/hate! Not start petty wars and hate campaigns!

Stritzo anon

And it's more than Chai, I have been a target too and it's been hurtful dealing with that type of bs.

[12minuteairquoteactressairquote]

Hi Mod, love your blog, hope you don’t mind, but I need to state something.

To select individuals in this fandom.

Any “fans” leaving comments under IG posts need to understand the difference between the internet and real life.

The general public doesn’t know what majority from this fandom whether on Tumblr or anywhere else online, know about this shitshow.

To the general public and the world, Chris Evans is married, period.

Leaving crazy ass comments makes you all seem unhinged and jealous to the real world. No one needs to see any article about crazy Stans because the behavior says enough.

No sane person is taking any comments of his Stan’s calling that girl names or saying the marriage is PR, seriously. Like how is that not common sense to you all. 🤷‍♀️

If anything people are going to go omg that’s what she’s dealing with, crazy women harassing her and Chris under movie posts. 😳

Y’all make the entire fandom seem unhinged and if any of this were real, Chris and her would have every reason to play victim.

So for the love of everything sane, STOP!

It’s no one’s fault but your own for putting this man on a pedestal when he’s just a guy like many others from Boston. If you got a chance to hang with him, many would realize he’s not all that to be online acting like nutjobs.

Stop associating the real life Chris Evans (who none of us know) to whatever unrealistic fantasy or image of this guy, many of you have created in your minds. 🫠

People claiming not to like him or her, yet stalk their every move to the point of leaving comments under a IG post about HER movie, all because of that stupid ass pic of him with her in Australia.

If people really think this is PR, then stop overreacting over every damn thing, go live your life and wait for this to officially end.

It’s not rocket science. 😑

I agree with this to a point. His fanbase or a touch few of them, will not let her forget that she is hated and she will NOT have a good career in the us. They are going to spam everything regarding her until it gets deleted and companies learn she is not someone who you will promote. Lowkey petty but I'm not terribly mad at it. It's like that quote from Heathers where winona's character asks shannon's(RIP) character why she's such a megabitch and she simply replies because I can be. I'm lowkey for his fanbase being judge, jury and executioner. You wanted to be famous, become a Hollywood actress? Welcome. You won't enjoy your stay, we will make sure of it. It is what it is for ole girl lol.

[nothingtherefornow]

Thomas Astruc on Chloe:

Really, the best lesson that the character of Chloé brings is this deleterious bias in humans that we find in many relationships...

You can behave like the worst garbage, all you need is a micro-good deed and all of a sudden, many will forgive everything. Let the oppressor give the oppressed a treat and we will praise their humanity...

On the other hand, you can be the best of people, and it will only take a tiny gap for the same people to nail you to the pillory. Like some do for Marinette. It's a phenomenon that we see everywhere. In politics, but even in abusive relationships...

Fascinating, really. I wonder how we can do to counteract to that.

And there is not so much in the character of Chloé that is interesting, but the reactions it provokes.

On the one hand, there are those who cling to these good deeds, which would be supposed to show that she is kind, deep down, without ever questioning what motivates these actions.

A bit like in abusive relationships, in which, when we are dealing with a monster, we often convince ourselves that they will change, not only because we are driven by the desire to help them, but also not not lose everything we have emotionally invested in the relationship.

But the important thing is not that the monster is capable of good deeds from time to time. That's why they do them: to be able to stay in control. They let go of the ballast to be able to better remake the evil behind. Carrot, stick, carrot, stick. A hellish spiral.

On the other have, we have convinced those who don't even see how problematic it is. Those who think that at least she has character, a personality. Not like that water bottle of Marinette. The one who deserves the title of heroine is Chloé!

Well, sometimes she abuses a little, but it's not that bad. A magnanimity towards a character, which they obviously don't grant to Marinette.

Hyper-classical process in politics.

If a homeless person steals a packet of dough, or a young suburban man rides a scooter without a helmet, we will accuse the judges of laxity if there is no firm prison.

On the other hand, if a politician gets stuck for having embezzled millions, then suddenly, the same people who accused the judges of laxity, will accuse them of being inquisitors.

And of course, these are the first ones to draw the worst of insults. All this to defend a cartoon character.

Or rather to defend themselves, actually.

All while claiming to be the protectors of children: Think about it! What a message to send to young people, that a person cannot change!

Except that this is to ignore the obvious: children do not identify with the bad guys. They appreciate them as characters. They can even understand them if some backstory is given. But that's all.

The best proof is that toys of villains sell very poorly.

In any case, for my part, what I love about this character, beyond the pleasure we have in playing her in the stories by her caricature side, is what it reveals of those who "stan" her, as they say now. Angelism for some, toxic inclinations for others.

Not sure that if, they learned a lot about themselves, but it taught me a lot.

And you know what, he’s right!

YOU NAILED IT FELLOW FAN !!

I would also add that currently in France, we have a big part of our people which prefer to defend criminals and delinquents, rather than the people they hurt who are most often harmless citizens who pay their taxes and don't piss off anyone.

behind the excuse of right thinking they like to tell themselves that people who have committed horrible acts can change and that it would be too cruel to want to punish them, while as soon as a victim opens their mouth to denounce the injustices they suffered and demand that their executioner pay for their crimes, these same people do not hesitate to insult the victim with all the names.

Lily James and Sebastian Stan Reportedly Cast in Secrets & Wives

Lily James and Sebastian Stan have reportedly joined the cast of Focus Features’ period film ‘Secrets & Wives.’ The movie, helmed by Carly Wray, is scheduled to start shooting in Atlanta, Georgia, and Vancouver, British Columbia, on an undisclosed date. The film, set in the 1980s rural Washington state, revolves around a single working mother named Sherry, who is swept off her feet by a charismatic, larger-than-life outsider named Martin Lewis. They run off and get married, only for hell to break loose. Sherry’s life gets turned upside down when it’s revealed that Martin is a married ex-gangster.

Lily and Stan are expected to play Sherry and Martin respectively. The two performers previously worked together for Hulu’s biographical series ‘Pam & Tommy,’ in which Lily plays actress and model Pamela Anderson and Stan portrays musician Tommy Lee.

Lily recently completed the filming of Sam Worthington and Riz Ahmed-starrer ‘Relay’ and Joseph Gordon-Levitt-starrer ‘Providence.’ Her upcoming release ‘The Iron Claw,’ starring Zac Efron and ‘The Bear’ fame Jeremy Allen White, is scheduled to be released on December 22, 2023. Her recent credits include Josephine Esperanto in ‘Finally Dawn,’ Zoe Stevenson in ‘What’s Love Got to Do with It?’ Linda Radlett in ‘The Pursuit of Love,’ and Ellie Appleton in ‘Yesterday.’

Stan recently concluded the filming of ‘A Different Man,’ in which he stars alongside Renate Reinsve. He is also a part of the cast of Marvel Studios’ ‘Thunderbolts.’ His recent credits include Vlad Tenev in ‘Dumb Money,’ God in ‘Ghosted,’ Max in ‘Sharper,’ Steve in ‘Fresh,’ Nick Fowler in ‘The 355,’ and Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier in ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.’

Although the exact dates of the filming are yet to be announced, we can expect the same to begin after the conclusion of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. Atlanta, known as the Hollywood East, is home to several production facilities and natural attractions. The city previously hosted the production of several famed projects, including ‘The Walking Dead,’ ‘Stranger Things,’ ‘Cobra Kai,’ ‘Ozark,’ ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,’ etc. Vancouver AKA Hollywood North, on the other hand, is a significant filming location of ‘Virgin River,’ ‘Supernatural,’ ‘Criminal Minds,’ ‘The Last of Us,’ and ‘Fear the Walking Dead.’

Wray, who is at the helm, also penned the screenplay. The screenwriter wrote several acclaimed episodes of AMC’s drama series ‘Mad Men.’ She also co-wrote and co-executive produced HBO’s superhero series ‘Watchmen’ and Max’s dystopian series ‘DMZ.’ Her other credits include ‘Westworld,’ ‘Mindhunter,’ ‘The Leftovers,’ ‘The Bastard Executioner,’ and ‘Constantine.’

Berlanti/Schechter Films, New Leaf Literary & Media, and Truly*Adventurous team up with Focus Features for the production of the film. Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Michael McGrath, Pouya Shahbazian, Matthew Pearl, and Greg Nichols are the producers.
