Nerdist

Nerdist News, which started in February 2012 and was previously known as GeekChicDaily, is the pop culture newsletter under the Nerdist brand. It was established and initially managed by Peter Levin, the former CEO of Nerdist Industries. Currently, this cross-platform publisher features two newsletters: Nerdist News and TOKYOPOP. The transformation from GeekChicDaily to Nerdist News occurred when it merged with Nerdist to create Nerdist Industries in February 2012. By late 2013, Nerdist News evolved into a web series on the "Nerdist" YouTube channel, hosted by Jessica Chobot, a former presenter from IGN Daily Fix. This series delivers the latest updates in nerdy pop culture five days a week.

Some performers turn swearing into an art form. A few of those who have a place in the Upper Echelon of Coarseness are Al Pacino’s Tony Montana, Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ Selina Meyer, Mark Wahlberg’s Sergeant Dignam, Isiah Whitlock Jr.’s Clay Davis, Susie Essman’s Susie Greene, Jeremy Piven’s Ari Gold, Ian McShane’s Al Swearengen, Joe Pesci’s Tommy DeVito and Nicky Santoro, and most Samuel L. Jackson characters.

Variety reports that the live-action Pacific Rim television series is officially in development, with Eric Heisserer as its writer and executive producer.

TWISTED METAL Season 2 Reveals July Release Date in Teaser Trailer and First-Look Images

1 week ago | nerdist.com | Tai Gooden

There are many video games that are enjoying success in live-action. Everyone raves about The Last of Us and Fallout, and rightfully so. They are incredible shows. But, I believe the most underrated—and the most fun!—show based on a gaming franchise is Twisted Metal. The first season’s adventures with Anthony Mackie’s John Doe, a witty milkman (re: delivery driver) who goes on a mission in hopes of securing a better future, were a phenomenal ride.

Daredevil: Born Again‘s first season brought Charlie Cox back to the Marvel spotlight after six years. We won’t have to wait nearly as long for him to star on his own show again, though. Showrunner Dario Scardapane’s public thank you to the cast and crew of the Disney+ series also included an announcement. Daredevil: Born Again‘s second season will debut in March 2026. Scardapane marked the finale of Daredevil: Born Again‘s first season with a post on Instagram.
28 YEARS LATER's New Trailer Is Full of Frantic Running and Rage Virus Action

1 week ago | nerdist.com | Tai Gooden

When the first trailer for 28 Years Later hit, I loved how it did what a trailer is supposed to do. It’s not supposed to be unduly long and basically give away the plot. A trailer is a peak, a tease into what fans can expect. And, when it comes to horror, the more ominous and vague it is, the better.

Earth’s mightiest heroes are no longer around to save the world against its greatest threats. So instead of the Avengers an unlikely team of forgotten, rejected, and disgraced super people will try to answer the hero bell in Thunderbolts*.

1 week ago | nerdist.com | Eric Diaz

Thanks to James Gunn’s upcoming Superman hitting theaters this July, the Man of Steel is getting his biggest moment in the spotlight in years. But when it comes to Kal-El, we must remember it all started with the comics. And this summer, DC Comics will unleash “the Summer of Superman” across their various Superman (and Superman adjacent) titles. Perhaps the most exciting is Superman Treasury 2025 – Hero for All.
