If you’re a pop culture junkie, this past week no doubt put you through a roller coaster of emotions. From the killing of “Batgirl” to two big buzzworthy new films (the fifth installment of the “Predator” franchise is good, actually!) and a “Sandman” TV series at last, we’re digging deep into it all. Let’s get into it. [Premiere of the week] The 25 Best New Movies to Stream in August 2022 Source: Netflix/Disney/Hulu August may be light on major new releases in theaters, but in the streaming realm, there is a boatload of new movies to wade through. We’ve singled out [25 new movies streaming this month]( that we think are worth your time, ranging from bona fide new releases like “Day Shift” (Jamie Foxx is a vampire hunter) and “Prey” (a Predator splashes down in 1700s America) to new-to-streaming titles like “Lightyear” (it’s less confusing than you think) and “Licorice Pizza” (Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest is now on Prime Video!). Bookmark this for the next time you can’t decide what to watch.

Instead, he and his producing partner Kelly McCormick, along with star Brad Pitt, decided to approach the material with a heightened tone that “leaned into laughs.” [We spoke with Leitch about finding that tone](, how crucial Pitt was to the process and the alternate cut of the movie we’ll never see.

Killed ‘Batgirl': Taxes, Cutting Losses and a Strategic Pivot [Leslie Grace Batgirl] Source: WarnerMedia The biggest news story of the week was Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav making the decision [to kill a “Batgirl” movie]( that was largely completed and intended to be released on HBO Max. We spoke to experts to get to the bottom of the shocking decision and [find out why “Batgirl” will never see the light of day](.

Pictures [Warner Bros. to Enact a 10-Year Plan for DC Films: ‘We Think We Could Make It Better’]( [Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie Set Their Sights on ‘Gnarlier’ Movie After ‘Mission: Impossible 8’]( [Why Creator Neil Gaiman Waited 33 Years to Bring ‘The Sandman’ to the Screen]( [Kevin Feige Pitched an Early Version of ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in Which Thor, Captain America and All the ‘OGs’ Died]( [Lady Gaga Confirms ‘Joker 2’ Role With Teaser Video]( [Alternate Versions of Pixar’s ‘Lightyear’ That We’ll Never See]( [How ‘Purple Hearts’ Director Elizabeth Allen Rosenbaum Made a Romance About Political Opposites]( [- - -] [Premiere of the week] ‘The Banshees of Inisherin': Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson Get Mean, Reteam With Martin McDonagh in First Trailer Source: Searchlight Pictures The “In Bruges” trio is back together at last in [the first trailer for “The Banshees of Inisherin,”]( which reunites stars Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson with writer/director Martin McDonagh. Farrell and Gleeson star as two lifelong friends whose relationship is abruptly ended by Gleeson’s character. Refusing to take “no” for an answer, Farrell’s character sets about changing his former BFF’s mind. If it’s half as funny and emotional as “In Bruges,” we’re in for a treat.
