The summer movie conversation is already heating up, and much of it is coming straight out of CinemaCon.
On this week’s episode of Entertain Me with Heather Brooker, we’re breaking down the biggest headlines shaping what audiences will be watching next, from blockbuster sequels to intriguing new projects and a documentary spotlight on one of comedy’s most influential figures.
Among the buzziest reveals: fresh momentum behind Top Gun 3, signaling that the high-flying franchise isn’t slowing down anytime soon. While details remain under wraps, the announcement featuring Tom Cruise alone has fans and industry insiders watching closely to see how the next chapter will take shape.
There’s also new anticipation surrounding Lee Cronin’s The Mummy. Known for his work in horror, Cronin’s version is expected to lean darker—offering a sharp departure from previous iterations of the classic monster tale.
Meanwhile, Bob Odenkirk returns to the big screen in Normal, a project that’s generating curiosity for its tonal shift and character-driven storytelling. It’s a reminder that even in a sequel-heavy landscape, there’s still room for something a little more grounded.
And for fans of television history, the documentary Lorne takes a closer look at Lorne Michaels, the mastermind behind Saturday Night Live. The film promises a behind-the-scenes exploration of the producer who helped shape decades of comedy and continues to influence the industry today.
From legacy franchises to fresh creative swings, the takeaway is clear: Hollywood is betting big on both nostalgia and reinvention. Heather joins Gary and Shannon for the weekly entertainment report, where they weigh in on these stories and more. Listen every Friday on KFI AM 640.
