Frozen 3 is going ahead without Jennifer Lee as director. Velma will be back for season 2. Warner Bros. animation is planning an action-focused Beast Boy spinoff from Teen Titans, and tease Batman: Caped Crusader. Plus, even more Secret Invasion footage before its premiere this Wednesday. To me, my spoilers!
Deadline reports Lauren Staerck, Natasha Henstridge, Stephanie Lodge, Beatrice Fletcher, Megan Purvis and Darrell Griggs are attached to star in Cinderella’s Revenge, a horror film based on the classic fairy tale in which Cinderella (Staerck)’s “wicked stepsisters and stepmother push her too far, leading her to swap her glass slippers in pursuit of blood-soaked vengeance with the help of her Fairy Godmother (Henstridge).”
According to Coming Soon, filming has officially wrapped on David Cronenberg’s latest feature, The Shrouds.
Unsurprisingly, Pixar’s Pete Docter confirmed both Woody and Buzz will return in Toy Story 5 during a recent interview with Variety.
We have another Toy Story, so Woody and Buzz are back. And we have a few other projects, but it’s always a balance.
However, Jennifer Lee revealed she will not return to direct Frozen 3 during another recent interview with The Wrap.
I can’t say where we are [with Frozen 3.] All our stories are driven by the artists in the studio. Where we’re going with Frozen did not come from me. It came from an incredible person. That’s a new piece, I’ve told no one. And I’ve been blown away by it and I’m just having a blast with that team.

Variety reports production has begun on a Teen Titans spinoff series focusing exclusively on Beast Boy. Unlike the character’s depiction in Teen Titans GO!, however, Lone Wolf is said to be “a very different proposition” with “more of an action edge.”
In conversation with Variety, Executive Vice President of Alternative Programming for Warner Bros. Animation, Peter Girardi, stated Bruce Timm’s new Batman cartoon will finally realize “everything [he] wanted to do” with Batman: The Animated Series, but couldn’t “because it ran on a kid’s channel.”
It’s everything that Bruce Timm wanted to do in the original series [ 1992's Batman: The Animated Series] but because it ran on a kid’s channel, he wasn’t able to do it. So this definitely skews older. It’s more of his complete vision.
According to TV Line, Velma has been officially renewed for a second season at MAX.
