After the massive success of “Wicked: Part 1”, Ariana Grande and Universal Pictures are joining forces once again—this time for another major franchise. According to sources close to Deadline, the acclaimed singer and Academy Award nominee is set to appear in the upcoming instalment of the “Meet the Parents” series. The film is scheduled for release on November 25, 2026.

However, just a week before the festival, two of those films—”Nadan” by Farhad Hossain and “Shironaam” by Anik Biswas—have pulled out of the release schedule.

The Bangladeshi 'Ken', known for his appearances in major Hollywood productions like “Barbie”, “Wicked”, and “Aladdin”, continues to make the country proud as he juggles acting, dancing, and interviewing some of Hollywood's biggest names.

Coming in second was the Netflix limited series “Adolescence”, a surprise breakout that racked up 19 million viewers, signalling the streamer’s strong grip on scripted content.

The featured short films are: “In Another World” by Konok Khondokar, “Telapoka” by Al-Amin Hossain, “Hudai Miss” by Zahedul Haque, “Homunculus” by Ibne Noor Rakib, “Soulmate” by Adil Imam, “Cha Chai” by Sheikh Kourashani, “Louk” by Mahmuda Sultana, “For Sale” by Fazle Rabbi, “On the Contrary” by Imtiaz Hossain, and “Ishpait” by Abir Ferdous.

This Eid, audiences will see three actresses come together in a web film directed by Mahmudur Rahman Hime. Titled “Hide N Seek”, the OTT release features Tanjin Tisha, Prarthana Fardin Dighi, and Rukaiya Jahan Chamak in a story centred around mystery and deception.

With the success of “Severance” soaring beyond expectations, Ben Stiller and Adam Scott have opened up about the Apple TV+ hit’s journey, upcoming season, and the possibility of future spinoffs.

Television, OTT, and film actor Shajal Noor has begun shooting for his latest film “Shapla Shaluk” in Sherpur’s border region, marking his first collaboration with actress Shobnom Bubly. Directed by Rasheda Akter Lajuk, the action-romantic film faced an unusual disruption during filming when wild elephants invaded the set.

“Twenty Nine Seconds” unpacks the harrowing 2022 incident in which Rushdie was attacked onstage in New York, losing vision in one eye and nearly losing his life. It also traces the aftermath — psychological, physical, and artistic — that followed. Sen’s production brings Rushdie’s voice to life through Shah’s commanding presence, marking their first collaboration in theatre. Notably, the two have previously worked together on screen.

The new film will feature Churni Ganguly, Jaya Ahsan, and Kaushik Sen in lead roles, with Indrashish Roy joining as a new character.

The "Final Destination" franchise has always had a sick sense of humour. Somewhere between the hairspray fireball of 2006 and the acupuncture impalement of 2011, it found a rhythm: ordinary objects, operating according to the most banal physics, and conspiring to kill one in the most humiliating way possible. "Final Destination Bloodlines", the sixth and arguably most coherent instalment in the series, refines this formula while also taking a jab at our belief in logic and order. Directed with unhinged precision by Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein, and scripted by Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor, "Bloodlines" is a prequel-slash-sequel with both feet planted firmly in absurdity and emotional gravitas.

The future of the beloved “Hera Pheri” franchise appears increasingly uncertain, as veteran actor Paresh Rawal—best known for his portrayal of the iconic Baburao Ganpatrao Apte—has stepped away from “Hera Pheri 3”. The move has triggered a legal row and fuelled speculation of ongoing tensions between Rawal and co-star Akshay Kumar.

As the countdown to Eid-ul-Azha continues, the list of films set for release is growing steadily. Following previously announced titles like “Taandob”, “Neelchakra”, “Insaaf”, “Esha Murder”, “Tagar”, “Utsob”, “Nadan”, and “Gowar”, a new addition has entered the fray — “Sardar Barir Khela”, starring popular actress Shabnam Bubly.
