๐ฌ Mr. Darcy has a new address: Netflix
Jane Austen doesn't go out of style โ she just gets a new streaming deal. Netflix has dropped the first trailer for its six-part Pride and Prejudice, arriving December 3, 2026.
Emma Corrin plays Elizabeth Bennet; Jack Lowden โ fresh off *Slow Horses* and a serious run at James Bond โ steps in as the famously proud Mr. Darcy. Dolly Alderton wrote the scripts, Euros Lyn directs, and the team is billing it as a faithful retelling: adversaries to lovers, 19th-century English society, the whole beloved machinery.
The trailer reads warm and sun-soaked. Classic is classic โ sometimes you don't reinvent the wheel, you just polish it.

๐ฎ Sony just remembered what cool looked like
In the late '90s, translucent plastic was everywhere โ Game Boy, iMac, PlayStation controllers. Then it quietly disappeared. Sony has decided it's time.
The Prism Collection brings three see-through DualSense controllers to PS5 โ orange, green, and gray โ with a high-gloss clear finish that lets you peek at the hardware inside. Matching console cover plates come in the same colors, though those won't reveal any PS5 internals, just vibes.
Preorders open November 10, shipping in February. Controllers run
Worth noting, per The Verge: Sony has been making translucent gamepads since the PS1 era. Every PlayStation generation has gotten one eventually. They're just calling it nostalgia now โ and honestly, fair enough.

"Sunrise on the Reaping" opens November 20, and Jennifer Lawrence just confirmed the original trio is back โ Katniss, Peeta, and Haymitch.
Speaking on *Call Her Daddy*, she described an emotional reunion with the same crew after 11 years. Josh Hutcherson never left her side. Woody Harrelson skipped the door and climbed through her hotel window. "It wouldn't be the same if he listened to boundaries," she said.
The prequel follows a young Haymitch at the 50th Hunger Games, but Suzanne Collins' novel ends with a flash-forward featuring all three โ and the film appears to follow suit.

Sir Patrick Stewart has died in Los Angeles at 86 from Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia.
He grew up poor in Yorkshire, spent years in supporting roles, and in 1987 took the lead in Star Trek: The Next Generation expecting it to be cancelled within the year. Seven seasons and four films later, Jean-Luc Picard had become one of the most iconic characters in science fiction history.
Collider extends its sympathies to his family and everyone who grew up with Captain Picard.

๐ Patrick Stewart, 1940โ2025
Patrick Stewart died Wednesday at his Los Angeles home, aged 86, after a brief battle with Alzheimer's and Lewy Body Dementia. Two roles defined him for most of the world: Captain Picard across seven seasons of *Star Trek: TNG* and Professor Xavier through two decades of *X-Men*. Behind them sat twenty years at the Royal Shakespeare Company, an Olivier Award for *Hamlet*, and โ somehow โ a chilling neo-Nazi in *Green Room*. The range was almost unreasonable.
His final appearance as Xavier comes in *Avengers: Doomsday* this December. A film he won't see in a theatre.
