Spider-Man: No Way Home: 3 Signs That Ned Leeds Will Turn Evil

-

The Spider-Man Homecoming trilogy has built Ned Leeds (Jacob Batalon) into one of the best characters in the Spiderverse. As the best friend to his Peter Parker (Tom Holland), he's essentially Peter's right-hand man, or his guy in the chair helping him along the way. He's supportive, he's caring, he's funny, and he's everything you'd want in a best friend. We're not convinced, though, that things will stay that way.

You see, if we go back to the comics, which is where everything from the multiverse comes from in one way or another, Ned Leeds actually becomes Hobgoblin - a villain. There are always creative liberties, though, when it comes to translating the comics to the big screen, so we're not sure what might happen. The Ned in the Homecoming trilogy is actually pretty dissimilar to the Ned in the comics. He's a little bit more like Miles Morales's friend Ganke Lee with playing the guy in the chair and helping out.

Where this Ned feels more like comic-book Ned, though, is with his use of magic. In the comics, Ned plays apprentice to a magic user, which ends with him getting brainwashed and turned into Hobgoblin. Since we haven't seen this happen in the Spider-Man movies yet, we think it could still happen in the future. In fact, Spider-Man: No Way Home drops a few clues that could imply that Hobgoblin is coming. There's a Spider-Man 4 on the way at some point, so . . . here's what we think.

The Circle: Meet the Real "Emily" - aka Jack's Catfish Persona

-

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
