The chances of Warrior Nun returning for a season three are slim, but disappointed fans of the canceled Netflix series can at least take comfort in news of a charming 8-bit game based on the story. They might also find solace in the return of Hunger Games to Netflix, despite looming sexual assault allegations. If all else fails, they can find a moment of peace in the fresh trailer for Disney’s latest Peter Pan remake, which — unlike most of the live-action reboots — actually looks good.

Early trailers for Disney’s upcoming Peter Pan & Wendy might just break the current Disney live action cure. The vast, vast majority of Disney’s live action remakes have fallen entirely flat, but Pan & Wendy looks like it might finally break the trend. The film appears to boast a diverse cast — including Cree actor Alyssa Wapanatâhk portraying Tiger Lily — delightful special effects, and a rousing new take on the ever-popular story. 

A Warrior Nun game? Yes please!

A delightful game based around Warrior Nun received endorsement from showrunner Simon Barry, who responded with delight to news of the 8-bit title. The game reportedly allows gamers to hunt for Ava, should they choose to play as Bea, but remains in its early stages. With Barry on board with the cutesy little title, fans are flocking to drown their sorrow in the game, if it ever comes to fruition.

The Hunger Games movies are officially back on Netflix, but hype isn’t nearly what it should be, in the wake of Jena Malone’s recent revelations. The 38-year-old actress disclose that she was sexually assaulted while working on the film series, and offered up a helping hand to anyone going through a similar situation. Fans reacted with vast support for the popular actor, who’s made a name for herself through dozens of great releases.
