Star Trek: Picard brought back Sir Patrick Stewart as the titular Starfleet legend, and at the same time saw various other The Next Generation stars return alongside him in recurring or guest roles. It wasn’t just a nostalgia ride, however, but boldly moved their characters into emotional places where they had never gone before. In season 1, we reunited with William Riker (Jonathan Frakes), Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis) and Data (Brent Spiner) – who met his final end in the season finale.
Obviously, fans are desperately hoping that more of the old Enterprise-D crew show up in season 2 and beyond. And thankfully, all the evidence is saying that it’s going to happen. Adding fuel to the fire, Stewart himself has revealed that he’s “very hopeful” that more of his former co-stars will feature on the series in time, but only if they can be treated in the same way as, say, Riker and Troi in episode 7, “Nepenthe.”
“In meetings when we talked about bringing in members of the Next Generation crew, that was one of the things I was most passionate about, which was not only should Picard have changed during the 18 years that had passed, but the same has to be applied to Counselor Troi, to Commander Riker, to whoever it is. And by the way, I am very hopeful we will see more of The Next Generation crew before we say goodbye to Picard. And that is just what they did, and there is no better example than the episode [“Nepenthe”].”
“Nepenthe” caught up with the married couple on the eponymous planet, where we discovered that the pair had retired from Starfleet after their son, Thaddeus, contracted a fatal illness, and settled on Nepenthe for his final few months. They now live there with young daughter Kestra. Riker got a chance to ride into battle one last time in the finale, though, when he led a Starfleet armada against the Romulans to save Jean-Luc’s hide.
So, which other TNG characters could be next? Well, it’s a fact that Whoopi Goldberg will be back as Guinan, as Stewart made a very public offer to her to appear on Picard. Meanwhile, LeVar Burton has admitted that he’s had talks to reprise Geordi LaForge. And more from Riker seems pretty likely, as well, according to Frakes.
Star Trek: Picard season 2 is currently being written remotely so it should end up arriving on CBS All Access sometime next year.

Shah Rukh Khan’s last film, Zero, released in December 2018 after which he went on a long sabbatical. He has been reading scripts and even shortlisted a few of them. Meanwhile, the names of a lot of filmmakers did the rounds with whom the superstar was supposedly working with. However, of late, it has come to light that SRK is working with blockbuster filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani in his next directorial flick. Recently, while answering a fan question, he also let out a strong hint that he has indeed given his nod to Rajkumar Hirani’s flick. And naturally, it led to a lot of excitement among fans.

While not much is known about the film and its subject, Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that for this venture, Rajkumar Hirani and his frequent collaborator writer Abhijat Joshi have been joined by Kanika Dhillon. She has become quite well known of late thanks to her work in films like Manmarziyaan (2018), Kedarnath (2018), Judgmentall Hai Kya (2019) and the web film Guilty (2020). Interestingly, in the beginning of her career, she had extensively worked with SRK’s Red Chillies Entertainment. She worked as an assistant director on SRK’s 2007 blockbuster Om Shanti Om. She wrote the screenplay of Ra.One (2011) and additional screenplay of Always Kabhi Kabhi (2011). Rajkumar Hirani’s next hence marks Kanika’s reunion with Shah Rukh and Red Chillies Entertainment after almost 9 years.
A source close to the project says, “Kanika Dhillon has come on-board and she along with Rajkumar Hirani and Abhijat Joshi are busy scripting the film. Kanika is mainly scripting while Rajkumar and Abhijat are helping her with inputs. They are hoping to finish in a month or two. The film was to go on floors in August but due to the lockdown, it seems that the shoot will be pushed ahead.”
Rajkumar Hirani’s last film, Sanju, released in 2018 and was based on the controversial life of actor Sanjay Dutt. Starring Ranbir Kapoor, this flick emerged as the biggest hit of that year, earning Rs. 342.53 crores. Hirani, in fact, holds the envious record of not giving a single flop as a director. The source assures, “His film with Shah Rukh Khan too seems to be shaping up well, at the writing stage. And Rajkumar-Abhijat-Kanika collaboration has added a lot to the script and it’ll be something to watch out for.”

Director Shoojit Sircar has been hinting about it for some time. Now his latest film Gulabo-Sitabo which features Amitabh Bachchan and Ayushmann Khurrana as a squabbling landlord and tenant is said to be going straight to the digital platform

While director Sircar is more than happy to facilitate a quick release of his corona-stuck project we gather from sources close to Mr Bachchan that he and his co-star Khurrana are none too pleased with the swift deal that the producers of Gulabo Sitabo have cut with Amazon.
Says the source, “Both Bachchan Saab and Khurrana are keen to wait until the situation normalizes. But the producers are in an advanced stage of negotiation with Amazon.”

The next season of The Mandalorian will also mark the first live-action appearance of Ahsoka Tano, this time played by Rosario Dawson, but can we expect her new sidekick to show up as well?
Since most of the content in the world of that galaxy far, far away doesn’t exactly follow a chronological pattern, it’s easy to get confused when trying to wrap your head around the continuity of everything. For instance, nowadays, fans are enjoying the final episodes of The Clone Wars, all of which have centered around Ahsoka in the last days of the Galactic Republic. But before the hit animated show got renewed for a seventh and final season, Ahsoka played a major role in Rebels, a show that took place before A New Hope.
Now, reports indicate that Jon Favreau wants to bring Ahsoka to live-action by introducing her in the second season of The Mandalorian. The last time we saw the former Jedi Padawan, she teamed up with Sabine Wren to go look for Ezra Bridger in the Unknown Regions. So, since Favreau’s show also takes place after the fall of the Empire, it seems likely that Mando and Baby Yoda will bump into Ahsoka and Sabine as they’re continuing their search for Ezra in the Outer Rim.
Of course, as neither Ezra nor Sabine have been confirmed to make a comeback, this is mere speculation at this point. Filoni might even decide to explore the pair’s journey in a spinoff series. In that case, The Mandalorian won’t necessarily address Sabine’s fate in the upcoming chapter.
Still, we’re just glad to finally see Ahsoka outside the animation spectrum. It’s true that The Rise of Skywalker has already acknowledged the character by including her voice cameo alongside the rest of the Jedi, but it doesn’t count until we finally see an actress in full costume and makeup as Snips.

When it comes to online casino gaming, one of the first things you should take into account is the safety and security of the casino you chose to sign up with.
The internet is a vast space and there are literally hundreds of online casinos to from. And, newsflash, not all of them are safe and trustworthy. We all know that finding the right casino site can be a daunting task, so at Casino Mole, they’ve made it easier for you with their list of the most secure and reputable online casinos designed for players in Ireland.
We have to admit, searching for the best and the safest online casinos isn’t easy given the sea of options available. So, how do you find the most suitable online casino to join? Besides checking that list, read this guide so you know exactly what to look for when searching for a secure Irish online casino.
How to Find a Secure and Trustworthy Online Casino?
If you’re new to the world of iGaming, you may be wary about the security of the casino sites. Here are some useful tips to help you with your search for a legit and reliable online casino.
If there’s one thing that could signal you that you’re better off jumping into the next option is if the casino doesn’t have a license. If a site cannot afford to get the applicable licenses, how can you be sure that the casino can afford to pay you if you win? The most trustworthy casino sites hold licenses from esteemed gambling bodies such as the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority.
Proper security covers both the protection of sensitive data such as your financial information as well as fraud protection. Before signing up at a certain casino, see to it that it integrates proper online security. The easiest way to determine this is to check if the site uses HTTPS which guarantees that data sent to and from the website is encrypted and thus, kept private and secure.
Before playing with real money, see it that the casino supports a wide variety of safe and trusted deposit/withdrawal methods. Give a thumbs up to casinos that support payments using PayPal which is known for having strict rules when it comes to the use of their online payment services.
Legit online casinos offer games backed by well-regarded and trusted software providers like Microgaming, Playtech, Evolution Gaming, and NetEnt, just to name a few. What’s more, all games should have been tested regularly for fairness by an independent gaming auditing body like eCOGRA.
Look for casino operators whose terms and conditions are clear and easy to understand. The best casinos offer fair terms, which encompasses their bonuses and promotions, wagering requirements, and how they handle accounts as a whole.
Besides exploring the website of your prospective casino, it’s also a good idea to look into other sources of information to gain valuable insights from casino experts and other players like you. A good example will be from casino review sites/watchdog sites, online player forums, and be on the lookout for sites that are on blacklists.
The customer support department can make or break a casino. You’ll want an online casino that offers excellent customer support, one with professional support staff that provides assistance or answer queries quickly and efficiently, as well as resolves issues promptly.
Safety and Security Must Come First!
As you look for a safe and trusted online casino, remember to take these tips into account. Pick a casino that’s licensed and regulated to serve the players from the country you’re in, one that offers secure and convenient deposit/withdrawal methods, reasonable terms and conditions, as well as a reliable customer support team. By taking the time to research you can ensure that you find a topnotch casino that offers you a safe and enjoyable gambling experience online!

Bollywood actor Rishi Kapoor was admitted to HN Reliance hospital in Mumbai on Wednesday. Talking to a web portal, Rishi Kapoor's brother Randhir Kapoor confirmed the same. He said that Rishi is not well and that Neetu Kapoor is by his side.

Rishi Kapoor had returned to India in September last year after being treated for cancer in New York for nearly a year. While he was in New York, his wife Neetu Kapoor was by his side throughout. His son Ranbir Kapoor and rumoured girlfriend Alia Bhatt would often visit the ailing Rishi Kapoor.
After returning to India, Rishi Kapoor had said that he is eager to face the camera and hoped that he hasn't forgotten the craft. Rishi Kapoor was last seen in the film The Body that was released in December 2019. The film also starred Emraan Hashmi.
There was a time when Star Wars: The Clone Wars fans assumed that the animated series was set between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, but the final season has changed that by directly launching into the latter in the Siege of Mandalore story arc.
In fact, the show has already gone past the second act in the third installment. This essentially means that the penultimate episode will feature Order 66 and Anakin’s turn to the Dark Side. Of course, seeing as how the movie already covered the bits concerning the Jedi Order, or at least those of them left, it’s safe to say that the producers will focus on Ahsoka and Rex as they try to find the rest of the 501st after Darth Sidious activates their programming chip.
Still, the first two episodes of the last arc proved to be full of action and chill-inducing moments, so we’re excited to see where Filoni has planned to take us next, especially since Snips’ voice actress Ashley Eckstein previously teased that the finale will forever change the Skywalker Saga.
That’s certainly a high bar. But what if the last episode exceeds our expectations and brings back Darth Vader in the flesh? As several outlets have reported, Clone Wars merchandise featuring the Sith Lord is being sold by BoxLunch that seems to suggest that Vader will appear in a major battle sequence in the last episode after his transformation from Anakin Skywalker.
Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time that people see Vader in The Clone Wars. The character briefly made an appearance in the Mortis arc when the Son seduced Anakin and turned him to the Dark Side. What we’re wondering at this point though, if these reports turn out to be true, is where or how this battle takes place.
I guess we’ll have to wait and find out for ourselves as the last two episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars premiere on Disney Plus on May 1st and May 4th, respectively, but we’re willing to go out on a limb and say that this epic battle will take place on Kashyyyk as the newly formed Galactic Empire attempt to conquer the planet, a canonized event known as the Occupation of Kashyyyk.
