The third ‘Fantastic Beasts’ is coming soon to HBO Max.

It’s amazing how much difference a song makes. We’ve been treated to several teasers for Guy Ritchie’s upcoming King Arthur: Legend of the Sword movie, and to this point, I would have described them all as just OK. Ritchie’s particular brand of historical fiction and modern action aesthetics  —  including his signature fast-slow-fast brand of fight choreography —  is something I’ve gone back and forth on a little bit in the last few years. I’m not a big fan of Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes movies, but I did rather enjoy The Man From U.N.C.L.E., meaning King Arthur was kind of a net zero in my book.

As if surprise guest stars like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Tracy Morgan, Chris Kattan, and Horatio Sanz wasn’t enough, this weekend’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ also had an appearance by a major film star: Jude Law. Law showed up on ‘Weekend Update’ to discuss the craft of acting with Nicolas Cage in another edition of ‘In the Cage.’
