Taylor Swift is giving her fans a present to mark the start of The Eras Tour. Recently, Swift released four new tracks. The first two are “Eyes Open (Taylor’s Version)” and “Safe & Sound (Taylor’s Version)”. Swift wrote and recorded the songs for the soundtrack for 2012 blockbuster The Hunger Games. Williams and White cowrote “Safe & Sound” with her; at the time, they were the band The Civil Wars, but broke up in 2014.

The third song in Swift’s release is “If this was a movie (Taylor’s Version),” while the fourth track is “All of the girls you loved Before,” an extra, unreleased track from her 2019 album “Lover.”

Swift begins her tour, playing the first of two nights in Glendale, AZ. She’ll play 52 dates total throughout the US, ending in Los Angeles.

Get ready for Marvel Zombies

An array of MCU movies and Marvel series were announced as part of Marvel’s Phase 5 and 6. And one of the more fascinating concepts the studios are moving ahead with is Marvel Zombies.

There is still no Marvel Zombies release date, but the series is expected to drop at some point in 2024. The series is likely to continue the storyline from the zombie episode of Marvel’s What If…? series.

The basic premise of that episode saw the world infected by the Quantum virus, with those affected rising from the dead and hunting for flesh. The bigger problem was, any superhero infected by the virus would keep their powers even as a zombie.

By the end of the episode, Peter Parker, T’Challa, and Scott Lang (or his head at least) managed to survive after facing off against a zombie version of Wanda Maximoff. The heroes head off to Wakanda with the mind stone to try and create a cure for the virus. But a huge zombie army waiting for them there, led by an undead Thanos!

A BTS comeback is still very much in the cards, but during a question/answer session, HYBE label chairman Bang Si-hyuk revealed that there’s no clear date for BTS’s comeback at the moment.

At the end of that last dinner in June 2022, after confirming they’d be getting friendship tattoos to signify their ongoing connection as a group, the members tearfully assured fans that even though they wouldn’t be promoting as a group for the foreseeable future — as their new lead single “Yet to Come” says — the best for BTS is yet to come. They’re confident that this time they’re dedicating to their individual artistry will make them an even better group when they reunite.
