Netflix’s ‘One Piece’ Is Getting a Massive Expansion Starting This Fall
Against all odds, Netflix and One Piece have proven to be perfect partners. The streamer embarked on a gargantuan undertaking when ordering a live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda‘s massively creative and globally beloved pirate manga with elaborate sets and a lengthy call sheet, yet it’s all paid off so far. Season 2 aired less than one month ago and managed to surpass the success of its already-acclaimed first run, taking viewers into the dangerous waters of the Grand Line, earning a perfect 100% score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes along the way, and sailing to the top of the English streaming charts. In response to the overwhelming show of support, the platform is now opening up the hatches and preparing to release new ways to experience the story of Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates.
The streamer confirmed today that three new projects in the One Piece universe were on the way, including Season 3 of the live-action series, which wrapped production back in February. With a new graphic backed by sand dunes, it announced that the new run of episodes will be titled One Piece: The Battle of Alabasta, signaling that, as teased, the season will largely revolve around the desert kingdom that Vivi (Charithra Chandran) calls home. Luffy (Iñaki Godoy) and his crew will be caught in the middle of a rebellion with Crocodile (Joe Manganiello), one of the seven warlords and the leader of Baroque Works who was finally fully revealed at the end of Season 2, secretly pulling the strings. This high-stakes new chapter that will see the pirates grapple with a mounting civil war and seemingly impossible decisions was also confirmed to premiere in 2027, with Joe Tracz and Ian Stokes now serving as showrunners. All the main cast of Godoy, Emily Rudd, Mackenyu, Jacob Romero, Taz Skylar, and Mikaela Hoover will reprise their roles as the Straw Hats.
Beyond the live-action series, a new LEGO One Piece animated special was announced with a first-look image spotlighting Usopp and Chopper in a new, brick-shaped form. This will be a Netflix first, hailing from a partnership between LEGO Group, Shueisha, and Atomic that revisits the first two seasons with humor, thrills, and action befitting the brick-building toy company. It’s sailing onto the platform very soon too, premiering on September 27 as a two-part adventure billed as both a jumping on point for newcomers to One Piece and veterans looking to re-experience the adventure in a new way. New physical collectible LEGO sets based on Season 2 are also coming, but more info will be shared sometime soon.
‘One Piece’s New Anime Adaptation Gets a Stunning New Look
Last but not least, as far as productions go, Netflix also gave a new look at the new anime remake, The One Piece. First announced back in 2023, the series is meant to modernize the East Blue Saga, given that it’s been 27 years since the currently ongoing original anime adapted the opening arc of Luffy’s journey. WIT Studio is handling the animation with cutting-edge visual technology to bring it up to the standards of current hit series and create another bridge into the wider One Piece story for new viewers. The new image is just a tease of the fresh, water-color-like art style, with Luffy, Nami, Zoro, and Usopp all staring out over the ocean.
In addition to all of that, fans can visit the new One Piece hubs on Tudum and Netflix itself to get updates on everything going on in the franchise, listen to the official companion podcast on major podcast platforms for behind-the-scenes looks, and grab official merchandise from brands including NERF, Hot Topic, Penguin Random House, Moose Toys, Funko, and more. Netflix House Philadelphia also has a special escape room experience, Quest for the Devil Fruit, alongside photo ops, exclusive merch, and more to experience the wonders of the Grand Line first-hand. It’s again a testament to how the streamer has gone to great lengths to expand One Piece in ways never thought possible around the world. Netflix’s Chief Marketing Officer Marian Lee hailed the company’s efforts as a way to truly make the Straw Hats’ universe all-encompassing for fans of all kinds.
“The passion of the ONE PIECE fandom is unparalleled—spanning generations, they’ve turned our live-action series into a true global phenomenon that continues to top the Netflix charts. We are massive fans too, which is why we’re going bigger than ever to bring the Grand Line to life across every medium. From the epic high stakes of One Piece: The Battle of Alabasta in 2027 to our first-ever LEGO animated special this September, a stunning anime reimagining with The One Piece, and an expanded line of products so fans can bring the adventure home, we are building a universe where every fan—whether lifelong or brand new—can find their place in the Straw Hat crew.”
One Piece will expand with the new Netflix LEGO special on September 27 and Season 3 of the live-action series in 2027. A release date has not yet been announced for The One Piece. Check out the new LEGO special teaser in the player above and new images in the gallery below.

Megan Fox’s Hairstylist Chris Dylan on Why She ‘Isn’t Afraid to Experiment’ and How Extensions Make It Easy
Do what you want with your ‘do! Megan Fox’s hairstylist Chris Dylan, the expert behind the actress’ long, glossy locks for her return to Instagram last month, is spilling the secrets behind her ever-changing tresses with ET.
The main takeaway? Switching up your look doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
The pro, who has also worked with celebs including Nicky and Kathy Hilton, Audrina Patridge, Jasmine Tookes, Sofia Richie, Delilah Belle Hamlin, and Kelly Osbourne, says the key to changing your hairstyle comes down to one essential: high-quality extensions.
“As a stylist, I need products I can trust on my clients and on set, and Bellami consistently delivers hair that looks natural, styles beautifully, and lasts,” he shares.
“Whether they want longer hair, more volume, or a completely different vibe, Bellami makes it possible without compromising the health of their hair. It’s luxury hair that still feels wearable and effortless.”
His current go-to: The Halo Pro Hair Extensions, which are a shortcut to achieving good hair days, every day.
Designed for quick transformations, the new launch features a RootReplica scalp-mimic design, FlexMesh construction for breathability, and a SiliconeGrip strip to keep everything secure.
“The Halo Pro is such a great entry point for people who have never worn extensions before,” Dylan explains.
“It’s one of those products that feels very professional but is actually super easy for anyone to use. You can essentially get celebrity hair in under five minutes,” he adds.
And while it can be this simple, make sure to never choose extensions that don’t camouflage with your natural hair in color, density, or placement.
“The best extensions are the ones no one can detect. … When extensions aren’t properly blended, they can look obvious,” he notes.
And once you’ve found the right match, the fun really starts.
“You can add soft waves for that effortless It-girl look, pull the front pieces out for a chic half-up style, or create a full, voluminous ponytail or bun,” he spills.
“Because this hair blends so naturally, it gives the illusion that you just stepped out of the salon.”
The versatility that the line offers is exactly what fuels Dylan’s artistic process with the Transformers star.
“Megan is definitely someone who isn’t afraid to experiment. … She has a very strong sense of style and a clear vision, but she’s also open to exploring new ideas,” he dishes.
“She loves transformation and understands how much hair can change a look or a mood. Whether it’s dramatic length, a bold color moment, or a completely different style, she’s very open to pushing things creatively.”
For their latest look, the pair tapped into a little nostalgia.
“It was important to show Megan stepping into her own power, so naturally we brought it back to 2008/2009 with her signature lengthy 22″ soft black slept-in blowout look.”
And for anyone looking to channel that same energy, extensions are the ultimate beauty hack.
“Bellami lets you explore different looks without the long-term commitment,” the hair guru notes. “You can try anything without making a permanent change.”

Hulu’s Hitman Crime Thriller Is Officially Returning For Another Season
Patrick Dempsey has been around in movies and TV shows for almost 40 years now, following his early breakout role in the 1987 teen romantic comedy, Can’t Buy Me Love, but he also has plenty of other notable roles under his belt. One of his most famous performances that immediately comes to mind is playing Dr. Derek Shepherd in 247 episodes of Grey’s Anatomy, the beloved medical procedural starring Ellen Pompeo that’s been on the air for over 20 years. He first played the character in 2005 before suiting up for the final time in 2021. He’s also famous for playing Dylan in the 2011 sci-fi blockbuster, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, which grossed over $1.1 billion at the box office. He even made his Dexter debut in the now-canceled prequel, Original Sin, which is streaming on Paramount+.
More recently, however, Dempsey has returned to TV with his new network crime thriller, Memory of a Killer, which co-stars Michael Imperioli, a long-time actor on The Sopranos. The first two episodes of Memory of a Killer premiered back at the end of January, and the show just wrapped up with an explosive finale a few days ago that has fans around the world questioning what could happen next. In the finale, Angelo’s work and personal life, which he’s been working all season to keep separate, finally collide in one final confrontation with The Ferryman. Less than three days removed from the Season 1 finale of Memory of a Killer, news broke yesterday evening that the show has been renewed for Season 2. The premiere of the show has scored over 16 million viewers over the last few months, making it one of Fox’s biggest premieres in history, so the decision to renew was likely an easy one.
What is ‘Memory of a Killer’ About?
The official synopsis for Memory of a Killer reads as follows:
“When hitman Angelo is hit with early-onset Alzheimer’s, his worlds collide, putting his family in danger.”
Memory of a Killer is based on the novel De zaak Alzheimer’s by Jeff Geeraerts and Carl Joos, and it was written and created for TV by Tracey Malone and Ed Whitmore. Plot details about Season 2 are being kept under wraps for now, but after such a strong debut season on Fox, it’s a safe bet the network wants to see the show return as quickly as possible.
Check out all episodes of Memory of a Killer on Hulu and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of Season 2.

‘Dune 3’ Is Already Sold Out 9 Months Before Release
The 2026 box office is already having a much healthier year than the last one, and that’s made the looming December showdown between Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday feel even bigger. According to Box Office Mojo’s year-to-date chart, the domestic box office has already climbed past $2 billion as of April 7, reaching about $2.01 billion. That’s well ahead of where 2025 was at the same point, when the domestic total sat at roughly $1.65 billion.
There’s still a whole summer movie season to get through first, obviously, but December 18 is already shaping up to be one of the wildest release dates Hollywood has booked in years. Warner Bros. lists Dune: Part Three for a December 18, 2026 theatrical release, while Disney has also confirmed Avengers: Doomsday for the exact same day.
And even though both films are still eight months away, Dune: Part Three has already started making noise in a very real way. IMAX has put tickets on sale for its 70mm film screenings of the movie, and the official listing already shows multiple sold-out locations, including major venues in Los Angeles and New York. ComicBook also reported that one resale ticket on eBay reached $999.99, which says a lot about how badly some fans want to lock in that format early.
How Good Is ‘Dune’?
The series is acclaimed for a reason. Villeneuve’s masterful direction, pitch-perfect CGI, and outstanding performances by the cast have made these more than just niche sci-fi. Collider’s Therese Lacson backed this up, stating:
“Villeneuve has set up a lot and I left Dune: Part Two excited for more of this story, especially with surprising cameos that hint at a fantastic future. I’ve criticized a lot of this movie, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a joy to watch on screen. Villeneuve has achieved the impossible, and I’m sure he’s converted many people into becoming Dune fans. But, I can’t help but think that this is how I felt in 2021 when I first saw Part One. Will Dune: Part Two become a pivotal part of a movie franchise or a harbinger of worse things to come?”
Dune: Part Three is due to release on December 18, 2026.

Amazon MGM Developing RoboCop Reboot With Big Franchise Plans : Coastal House Media
The internet’s most unsettling nightmare is about to step fully into the spotlight.
A brand-new trailer for Backrooms, A24’s upcoming horror film based on the viral creepypasta phenomenon, is set to drop tomorrow and fans are already bracing for what could be one of the most disturbing films of the year.
From YouTube Horror to the Big Screen
Backrooms isn’t just another horror movie. It’s the evolution of a digital legend.
The film is directed by Kane Parsons, the creator behind the massively popular Backrooms found-footage series that exploded on YouTube. What started as a low-budget analog horror concept quickly turned into a global phenomenon, with millions drawn to its eerie liminal space aesthetic and unsettling sense of isolation.
Now, A24 is bringing that same nightmare fuel to theaters.
What the Movie Is About
While details remain intentionally cryptic, the story follows a therapist who ventures into a strange alternate dimension after her patient mysteriously disappears.
That dimension is the Backrooms, an endless maze of empty office-like spaces filled with flickering lights, yellow walls, and something far more sinister lurking just out of sight.
If the original concept taught fans anything, it’s this:
you are not supposed to be there.
Backrooms [credit: A24]
Stacked Cast and Big Studio Backing
The film features a strong cast for such an experimental horror concept, including:
- Chiwetel Ejiofor
- Renate Reinsve
- Mark Duplass
- Finn Bennett
- Lukita Maxwell
- Avan Jogia
Behind the scenes, the project is backed by A24 along with major production companies like Atomic Monster, signaling that this isn’t just a niche internet adaptation, it’s a full-scale cinematic event.
Release Date and What to Expect
Backrooms is officially set to hit theaters on May 29, 2026, positioning it as one of A24’s most anticipated horror releases of the year.
The teaser already gave fans a glimpse of its unsettling tone, but tomorrow’s trailer is expected to dive deeper into the story and possibly reveal the creatures and deeper lore that made the original series so terrifying.
Why This Could Be Huge
This isn’t just another horror release. It’s part of a growing trend where internet-born stories are evolving into mainstream cinema.
But Backrooms stands out.
It taps into a very specific kind of fear, the uncanny feeling of being somewhere familiar yet completely wrong. Early footage suggests the film is leaning heavily into psychological dread rather than relying on traditional jump scares.
If it lands, it could become the next breakout horror hit in A24’s lineup.
Final Thoughts
With the full trailer dropping tomorrow, Backrooms is about to go from online legend to mainstream obsession.
And if the studio nails the tone, don’t be surprised if this becomes the horror movie everyone’s talking about heading into summer.

Lil Tjay has not been shot, nor has Lil Tjay been charged with any shooting. Any reporting contrary is false,” the statement read. “We encourage people to consult trusted news sources and verify the accuracy of any reporting, before reflexively sharing or repeating baseless rumors.”

‘Bob’s Burgers’ Celebrates 300 Episodes With Must-See New Loungefly Collection [Exclusive]
When Bob’s Burgers returned for Season 16 last fall, it officially crossed the 300th episode milestone, an incredible feat for any series. Today, Collider is thrilled to team with Loungefly as the foremost fandom-merch brand launches a stunning new Bob’s Burgers collection to celebrate over 300 delicious episodes of erotic friend fiction, wonderfully punny burger specials of the day (“Baby You Can Chive My Car” is still a classic), Teddy hoping to desperately become Bob and Linda’s third, Gene’s keyboard skills, Louise’s adventures with Kuchi Kopi, and some seriously unexpected tears.
Launching today, Loungefly’s Bob’s Burgers collection is filled with easter eggs and must-haves for fans of the beloved sitcom. Today we’re delighted to bring you a first look at the new items, which include a classic mini-backpack, an over the shoulder bag, and a blind box selection of minibackpack charms. The true showstopper of the collection is the mini backpack shaped like everyone’s favorite burger restaurant, which retails at $90 USD. Loungefly packed the front and back full of iconic Bob’s Burgers imagery, from the lime green and yellow exterior, to the classic sign, to the family gathered out from. Take a peek at the back of the restaurant, where two raccoons (perhaps Little King Trash Mouth and his husband, Gary, or even Linda’s frenemy, Big Baby Pudding Snatcher) can be seen snacking away on top of the alley dumpster. Mini flying burgers — a nod to a painting displayed in the restaurant — decorate the straps, too!
Remember Big Bob and Little Bob? Well, Loungefly has their own version: Mini backpacks and even mini-er backpacks! You can now accessorize your accessories (a concept Gene would no doubt be a fan of) with your favorite Bob’s Burgers characters in bag charm form. Each mini backpack keychain charm is a mystery — you never know which one you’re going to get! Who needs a Labubu when you can dangle one of these bad boys off your bag. There are six in total to collect: Tina, Louise, Linda, Gene, Bob, and Teddy, and each bagcharm costs $20. Last, but certaily not least, the collection features a gorgeous Louise-themed crossbody bag. Retailing for $65, the bag is a happy medium of sorts between the other options in the collection, offering the perfect size to hold all your essentials while repping your favorite series. The bag features Louise’s signature look including her green fit and her pink bunny-eared hat; details like an image of Louise sitting on Bob’s shoulders on the back of the bag and a glow in the dark Kuchi Kopi coin purse truly take this piece over the top.
When Will ‘Bob’s Burgers’ Season 16 Return?
After a four-month hiatus, fans are eagerly awaiting more Bob’s Burgers, though a return date for Season 16 has yet to be confirmed by the network. Having crossed the 300th-episode milestone when the show returned for Season 16 last year, the animated sitcom is stronger than ever. The series has no plans for stopping anytime soon either. Back in April of 2025, Bob’s Burgers recieved a massive renewal for four seasons at once, taking the series through Season 19 on Fox and Hulu. The series is expected to return sometime this spring.
Bob’s Burgers airs on Fox. Order your favorite piece from the Loungefly collection today and stay tuned at Collider for more.

Taylor Swift Vegas Plans Trigger Showgirl Lawsuit
Taylor Swift’s latest era may be heading toward Las Vegas, but not without controversy.
As rumors swirl about a potential residency tied to her “Life of a Showgirl” project, the pop superstar has been pulled into a legal dispute with a longtime Vegas performer.
What began as speculation about a Sin City run has now escalated into a trademark battle, with questions over branding, ownership, and whether two “showgirl” concepts can coexist.
Taylor Swift Lawsuit Sparks Shock Among Insider Circle

Taylor Swift’s legal clash with Las Vegas performer Maren Wade reportedly caught many people off guard.
According to an insider, the move was unexpected, especially given Wade’s personality and background.
“It was definitely shocking to friends when the news came out,” the source told the Daily Mail, noting that Wade has spent years building her identity around Confessions of a Showgirl.
They clarified the distinction between the two concepts, adding, “Her show is Confessions of a Showgirl, not The Life of a Showgirl. It’s a little confusing, but she has been building this brand for over a decade.”
Wade’s lawsuit claims Swift’s Life of a Showgirl branding overlaps too closely with her own, potentially creating confusion.
She is now seeking to block Swift’s use of the name while also pursuing damages tied to the alleged impact on her business and reputation.
Swift’s Vegas Rumors May Have Triggered Legal Action

The timing of the lawsuit appears closely tied to growing speculation about Taylor Swift heading to Las Vegas.
Insiders have suggested that discussions about a residency are happening, even if nothing has been finalized.
“The rumors of a residency in Vegas are true, but nothing is set in stone when it comes to whether she will do anything at The Sphere, Caesars, Park MGM,” the source shared, adding that planning is still ongoing.
They explained that Swift is considering a limited number of performances rather than a traditional long-term residency, saying she is “eyeing seven dates” while keeping touring as her main priority.
For Wade, this buzz may have raised concerns about timing and visibility. As the insider put it, “If you can have a steady gig in Vegas, everyone’s going to want [a residency],” highlighting just how competitive the space has become.
Taylor Swift Branding Clash Raises Questions About Protection

Beyond the headlines, insiders suggest the lawsuit may not be about money at all. Instead, it could be a strategic move to safeguard Wade’s long-established brand before the Grammy Award winner potentially enters the same space.
“What she could be hoping to get out of this is to protect her brand, that she can continue,” the source explained.
They also hinted that the filing may have been preemptive, adding, “And maybe it was pre-emptive because obviously there are all these rumors that Taylor is coming to do a residency.”
The insider went further, suggesting Wade may be trying to secure her footing early, saying it could be her way of declaring, “Look, I need to protect my brand in my city.”
The legal filing itself echoes these concerns, arguing that Swift’s branding could confuse audiences and overshadow a concept the Las Vegas performer has been developing since 2014.
Swift’s Case Highlights Concerns Over Brand Confusion

At the center of the dispute is the potential overlap between “Confessions of a Showgirl” and “Life of a Showgirl”
Wade had already trademarked her concept years ago, and Taylor Swift’s later application was reportedly rejected due to similarities.
Despite that, the lawsuit claims the 36-year-old’s team continued using the branding. It states they “continued using it anyway, expanding it across a coordinated commercial program and distributing it through retail channels reaching millions of consumers.”
Wade also alleges that she was never contacted about the name, further fueling her argument that her work is being encroached upon.
Her legal team maintains that both projects are targeting the same audience, increasing the risk that her brand could be mistaken for Swift’s or overshadowed entirely due to Swift’s global reach.
Taylor Swift Gains Support As Maren Wade’s Intentions Are Debated
While the lawsuit has sparked debate, insiders insist Wade is not acting out of financial desperation.
Instead, they describe her as someone who is financially secure and not driven by a desire for a payout.
“It’s a surprise that she’s even going down this road. It doesn’t seem like her,” the source said, suggesting the decision may have come after outside influence.
They added, “It’s probably just someone said something to her like ‘people are going to start confusing you.’”
The insider was clear about Wade’s character, stating, “She’s not the type to be like, ‘I want to get millions out of Taylor Swift.’”
They continued, “She’s not a malicious person and she’s not a money grabber…”
Taylor Swift, who has built an extensive trademark portfolio, has not publicly responded to the lawsuit.
