News The Last Witch Hunter 2 The Last Witch Hunter Sequel Will Bring 92-Year-Old Michael Caine Out of Retirement Caine said in 2023 at age 90 that he was going to retire. By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on September 8, 2025 Credit: Lionsgate Comment 0 Share New Share Credit: Lionsgate Vin Diesel and the once-retired Michael Caine are in talks to star in a sequel to 2015’s The Last Witch Hunter, a film whose meager box office returns were augmented by strong digital and streaming numbers, which, according to Variety, prompted Lionsgate to greenlight a sequel. “The Last Witch Hunter has grown since its theatrical release into a global fan favorite, with audiences continuing to discover and rewatch it across every platform over the past decade. That enduring enthusiasm made clear there is an appetite for more stories set in this world,” Lionsgate Motion Picture Group chair Adam Fogelson said in a statement. “Vin and I have partnered many times over the years, and he is a true force in our industry. I’m thrilled to be reuniting with him as he returns to this iconic role, and excited by how advancements in filmmaking technology now allow us to economically deliver a sequel on an even more ambitious scale.” The first film was advertised as an adaptation of Diesel’s personal Dungeons & Dragons campaign, where he played a character called Melkor the Witch Hunter. Caine, whose deal isn’t yet finalized, is expected to once again play the priest, Dolan, who serves as Melkor’s assistant in stopping evil magic stuff. The critical reception for The Last Witch Hunter was far from positive. Its Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score is 18 percent, and Theresa Delucci in her Reactor review said it was “not the cheese-tastic, one-liner spouting fantasy movie I came for.” We don’t have details yet on plot, though the end of the 2015 film opened the door for other evil creatures for Melkor to take on. Variety reports that it has been “fast-tracked through development,” so odds are probably good we’ll see The Last Witch Hunter 2 sooner rather than later.

Supreme Court: Immigration Stops in LA Can Continue

Monday marked the beginning of season 29 for ABC’s The View. Back from their summer hiatus, the liberal ladies were just as unhinged as ever as they decried President Trump’s crackdown on crime in the nation’s capital. Co-host Joy Behar suggested that Trump was going to have the National Guard launch a literal “war” against American civilians. Meanwhile, co-host Sara Haines proclaimed that the money used to support the Guard was better spent on one night of shelter for the homeless, rather than deterring murders. Behar started her comments by seeming suggesting that crime was not an issue and the crackdown was just “a big distraction from the fact that his approval rating is in the toilet right now.” She also seemed to suggest Trump was going to use the National Guard to launch a “war against your own people” via the National Guard, huffing that he was elected as an “anti-war candidate”: Point two, didn't he run on being an anti-war candidate. The MAGA people who voted for him, one of the reasons they liked him is because he was against war. He took on Bush. I guess that didn't include war against your own people in your own country.     She was followed up by Haines who falsely claimed the National Guard was not effective in D.C. despite the fact the murder rate dropped to nearly non-existence and violent crime dropping by nearly 50 percent. Haines ridiculously argued that money would be better spent on giving the city’s homeless population one (1) night of shelter, rather than the many nights of life for the people not murdered: HAINES: Yes, that's clearly what he is saying here. But the bigger part with him constantly sending in the National Guard is it's not effective. So you can concede, Alyssa, as you are pointing out there are crime problems in our cities, there absolutely are, but what would be more effective is not treating the symptom but the root causes. They could take the equal amount of money that they dispensed into D.C. and house every homeless person for a night. BEHAR: But then they wouldn't have an issue! HAINES: But that's my point. Politics is less about solutions and more about politicking. If they wanted to solve the problem they could infuse money into these communities. Co-host Sunny Hostin, a former federal prosecutor, also denounced the money being spent on the National Guard deployments. “I think we need to do a much better job, but not necessarily militarizing the police,” she said. “Let's aid the police, let’s send people who have mental health training so that we can help people that are emotionally disturbed.” She also wanted to spend the money on “affordable housing” and “feed[ing] the hungry.” At the top of the segment, moderator Whoopi Goldberg was up in arms over Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raiding a Hyundai factory under construction Georgia and arresting illegal immigrants. She claimed, without evidence, that the U.S. invited the illegal immigrants in to specifically build the factory. “Did you know they were here to build a plant to create American jobs?” she asked. “You asked people to come in and build this for you. You asked them in. You said, here is the job and then you say, ‘oh, and we're arresting you.’” Fake Republican Ana Navarro proposed that the reason the Trump administration raided the site was because “they want to conflate crime and immigration. They want to terrorize vulnerable communities.” Faux conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin insisted the crackdown was only all about “politics” since “the midterms are coming.” She want to “caution Democrats” because “he's trying to goad them into saying ‘there is no problem with crime this this whole country.’” “I think we have had this cycle where Democrats can down play an issue, the border and some crime in cities and then Trump swoops in and overcorrects in the most massive way,” she griped. Welcome to season 29 of The View. The transcript is below. Click "expand" to read: ABC’s The View September 8, 2025 11:21:35 a.m. Eastern (…) WHOOPI GOLDBERG: So here is a question. You know, last week, a Georgia Hyundai plant where over 450 people were taken into custody suspected of living and working illegally. Over 300 of them were South Korean. Did you know they were here to build a plant to create American jobs? SUNNY HOSTIN: Oh, wow. JOY BEHAR: And they rounded them up. GOLDBERG: And they rounded them up. And, I mean, let's be real. Let's be real. This isn't about sanctuary cities. This isn't about rounding up rough, bad people. This is about y'all being pissed off about something. Because if this was about rounding up people who were bad for the country, you all would be doing a totally different kind of job. That is my opinion and that's what I'm putting out because none -- you asked people to come in and build this for you. You asked them in. You said, here is the job and then you say, ‘oh, and we're arresting you.’ ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: So, I also think you can’t separate the politics from this. The midterms are coming. I think Trump has had – BEHAR: Not soon enough. FARAH GRIFFIN: -- control of the House, the Senate and the White House. And what he's trying to do and I caution Democrats, he's trying to goad them into saying ‘there is no problem with crime this this whole country.’ He wants people to take – GOLDBERG: We know better than that. FARAH GRIFFIN: I know, but I think we have had this cycle where Democrats can down play an issue, the border and some crime in cities and then Trump swoops in and overcorrects in the most massive way. I have never supported having troops in American cities, it doesn't make sense, it's not the way to police the streets. But Chicago, for example, over Labor Day weekend eight people were murdered and 25 plus people were hit with stray bullets. That deserves a response. It deserves a law enforcement response. It should be in coordination with the federal government. It should be the state and local officials that should lead it. But he has this way of speaking to people's anxieties and when they feel they are not safe in their communities regardless of what the macro stats say he taps into that. It’s the grievance politics BEHAR: I lot of the authoritarians do that. This is nothing new around the world. When they become autocrats -- FARAH GRIFFIN: But some of it is legitimate. [Crosstalk] GOLDBERG: Chicago's issues have been going down as many cities have. Some go up, they go up and down and up and down, but to come in and talk -- and to bully and say we are sending in ICE. You're not supposed -- why are you sending in ICE? ANA NAVARRO: Because they want to round up immigrants, they want to conflate crime and immigration. They want to terrorize vulnerable communities. And J.B. Pritzker the governor of Illinois had a very strong response to this. And one of the lines that stuck with me was, ‘authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America.’ Now, what does that mean? That means that when you see human rights violations, when you see civil rights violations, when you see masked men dragging people through the streets and beating people's dashboards in and windows in, film it! Amplify the truth so America can see what is happening in our streets! It also means do not get violent. Do not play into the hands of Donald Trump and his minions. They want a confrontation. Be smart. Be truthful. And Chicago was out in the streets this weekend. Chicago was out there protesting. They are not going – BEHAR: Isn't a lot of this a big distraction from the fact that his approval rating is in the toilet right now? 52 percent of Americans say the economy is getting worse. 24 percent say it's getting better. Also the Epstein thing hangs over his head! So, a lot of this is a big distraction. Point two, didn't he run on being an anti-war candidate. The MAGA people who voted for him, one of the reasons they liked him is because he was against war. He took on Bush. I guess that didn't include war against your own people in your own country. SARA HAINES: Yes, that's clearly what he is saying here. But the bigger part with him constantly sending in the National Guard is it's not effective. So you can concede, Alyssa, as you are pointing out there are crime problems in our cities, there absolutely are, but what would be more effective is not treating the symptom but the root causes. They could take the equal amount of money that they dispensed into D.C. and house every homeless person for a night. BEHAR: But then they wouldn't have an issue! HAINES: But that's my point. Politics is less about solutions and more about politicking. If they wanted to solve the problem they could infuse money into these communities. HOSTIN: That is the point that I was goings to make because I think that's very important. People should know that the National Guard it costs us, taxpayers, $1 million a day to have them there. GOLDBERG: And you see what they're doing. They’re cleaning D.C. HOSTIN: They're picking up trash, picking up litter. That is not why, I think, our members of the armed forces joined to serve. They don't join to serve to police citizens. They join to serve to protect our country GOLDBERG: Or to pick up garbage. HOSTIN: - from outside forces. That in and of itself is a problem. The other thing is I completely agree with you, Alyssa, I agree with you, Joy, there is a crime problem in this country, yes, it's gone down, yes, people are afraid. We want to address crime. I'm a former prosecutor. Yeah, I don't like crime. I think we need to do a much better job, but not necessarily militarizing the police. Let's aid the police, let’s send people who have mental health training so that we can help people that are emotionally disturbed. Let's have people that are -- that are doctors that can help with mental health, again. Let's also do something about affordable housing because we know that people can't live. Let's help -- why can't we use some of that million dollars to feed people because feed are hungry! GOLDBERG: If they actually cared about hungry people, we would have never seen anyone burn $29 million worth of food that we already -- you know, listen, it's not about any -- all of these solutions are brilliant and smart, but this is not about any of that. This is about something totally different. And quit trying to make everybody think that people who come to this country are coming to fight. I met lots of people who want to come to this country because they want a better life. They still want to come here. You know, so stop making them the enemy. They are not the enemy. They are not the enemy. We will be right back.

On Monday, CBS Mornings spent just over two minutes on last month’s brutal murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte allegedly at the hands of a man who had 14 prior arrests but was still allowed to roam free. This ended the shameful network blackout on the flagship morning and evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC. This stood in stark contrast to others such as NewsNation, Newsmax, and the Fox News Channel which have, in some cases, been covering this murder all weekend following the release of the video leading up to and after Zarutska being stabbed: “Now to a senseless attack on a Ukrainian refugee in this country, Iryna Zarutski — Zarutska, excuse me, was killed last month in Charlotte, North Carolina, on the light rail there in what officials are calling a random attack. New surveillance video shows exactly what happened,” co-host Tony Dokoupil began, adding “[w]e’re not going to show you the moment of the stabbing but...this footage is still disturbing.   Unsurprisingly and since this was the first network segment on the murder, correspondent Skyler Henry spend most of the time narrating the video: It’s just before 10:00 p.m. on August 22 and 34-year-old DeCarlos Brown, Jr., is seated on a Charlotte light rail train. Several other people are around him. According to officials, a few minutes later, the train doors open and 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska gets on and takes a seat in front of Brown. She is wearing what appears to be a work uniform, AirPods, and looking at her phone. But then the unthinkable happens. You see Brown pull out what officials say was a pocket knife. He unfolds it, then stands up behind Zarutska. What we aren’t showing you is the moment where Brown stabs Zarutska several times and walks away. You can see Brown trying to get off the train. And a few people spring into action, attempting to save Zarutska. She would die from her injuries. Meanwhile, Brown, who has removed his hoody, waits for the train to stop, and then you see him exit. Henry then revealed what came off as obvious in the video, which was that “[o]fficials say it appears that Brown and Zarutska did not know each other and a motive for the stabbing remains under investigation.” He also delivered quite the understatement by refusing to put a number on the suspect’s previous cases in Mecklenburg County (14), including one case that led to a six-year sentence in 2015: “According to court documents, Brown has a criminal history dating back to 2011, including robbery with a dangerous weapon and other offenses.” The segment closed by quoting the city’s far-left mayor, but skipping the party ID: Charlotte’s Mayor, Vi Kyles, released this statement on X, saying in part, “This was a senseless and tragic loss. My prayers remain with her loved ones as they continue to grieve through an unimaginable time.” Brown is charged with first-degree murder and remains behind bars.  Before moving onto a puny 19-second brief on a deadly terror attack in Jerusalem (and 11 seconds on Gaza high rises being brought down), co-host Gayle King grimaced in regard to Zarutska’s killing: “We didn’t see it, but it’s extremely upsetting.” So, while it’s certainly the news judgement viewers can and should expect under the new regime at the Skydance-helmed CBS News (and possibly Bari Weiss joining the fray), there were still a few key details missing such as party ID of those whose policies allowed the suspect to live on the streets.

President Donald Trump commended West Point Academy for canceling an award ceremony intended to honor a “woke” actor.The U.S. Military Academy scheduled an award ceremony for September 25 to honor Tom Hanks with a Sylvanus Thayer Award. The award is given annually to an American citizen “whose service and accomplishments in the national interest exemplify personal devotion to the ideals expressed in the West Point motto, ‘Duty, Honor, Country.’”'Hopefully the Academy Awards, and other Fake Award Shows, will review their Standards and Practices in the name of Fairness and Justice.'“Tom Hanks has done more for the positive portrayal of the American service member, more for the caring of the American veteran, their caregivers and their family, and more for the American space program and all branches of government than many other Americans,” stated Robert A. McDonald, the chairman of the West Point Association of Graduates.WPAOG stated that Hanks’ “five-decade career reflects his support of veterans, the military, and America’s space program,” citing his work as a spokesperson for Washington’s World War II Memorial, a national chairman for the D-Day Museum Capital Campaign, and movie roles where he played U.S. service members. The group also noted Hanks’ support of military personnel through profits from Hanks for Our Troops, a coffee company.Hanks called the honor “humbling and meaningful.”RELATED: Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg reunite for long-awaited WWII drama 'Masters of the Air,' celebrating brave men of the 'Bloody Hundredth' Tom Hanks in the movie 'Saving Private Ryan.'

West Point’s legacy of leadership, character, and service to the nation is a powerful example for all Americans,” he said.Retired Army Col. Mark Bieger, president and chief executive officer of the WPAOG, announced Friday in an email to faculty that the group had canceled the ceremony, according to the Washington Post.“This decision allows the Academy to continue its focus on its core mission of preparing cadets to lead, fight, and win as officers in the world’s most lethal force, the United States Army,” Bieger wrote.RELATED: Tom Hanks slams campaign to modify classic books to please cancel culture: 'Let me decide what I am offended by' The 2024 Sylvanus Thayer Award awarded to former President Barack Obama.

We don’t need destructive, WOKE recipients getting our cherished American Awards!!!
