- Giant wheeled cities literally eat each other in the steampunk post-apocalyptic world of Mortal Engines, from producer Peter Jackson and based on the YA novel series of the same name.
- Keira Knightley dons very, very pink outfits and hair as the Sugar Plum Fairy in the first trailer for Disney's The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, a big-budget live-action fairy tale not adapted from one of their animated films.
- This week also saw the apparent cancellation of both of Marvel's current comics with queer leads: America, starring multiverse-hopping Latinx teen America Chavez, and Iceman, featuring the veteran X-Men member (and newly out gay man). (Writer Sima Grace confirmed the Iceman cancellation on Twitter; America's cancellation isn't yet official, but author Gabby Rivera retweeting others about the assumed cancellation probably doesn't bode well). Grace at least promises that he'll continue to work with Marvel (on what I'd expect to be queer-inclusive content), but I'm not encouraged when Marvel execs invoke "color-blind" rhetoric ("... what we can commit to is what we always commit to, doing our very best to bring you guys the very best Marvel Super Hero stories possible regardless of a character or creator's gender, ethnicity, preference or identification." in lieu of a genuine commitment to diversity.
