a marine biologist with an obsession with Atlantis, Black Manta discovers a Black Trident in Antarctica.

Jimmy Kimmel Live!
I am currently embroiled in what may be the most preposterous lawsuit of all time. George Santos, a man Republicans kicked out of Congress for being a fraud, is suing me for fraud. ... George has rudely filed a lawsuit against me, our show and the Walt Disney Company because we did a nice thing, because we supported him by ordering his Cameo videos. ... He says
we deceived him under the guise of fandom, soliciting personalized videos only to then broadcast these on national television. And if there’s one thing George Santos will not stand for, it’s using a fake name under false pretenses.
The Late Show With Stephen Colbert
Today was the House of Representatives’ last day of work for the year, and you know what? They deserve a break. In the last 12 months, they accomplished so ... not.
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon
During a livestream event on X with Elon Musk and 100,000 listeners, Vivek Ramaswamy forgot to mute himself while going to the restroom. Well, that gives a whole new meaning to the word “livestream.”

“Irish Wish” (2024)
Explore everything that life has to offer with the new romantic comedy “Irish Wish,” making its premiere on Netflix Friday, March 15. Lindsay Lohan (“Mean Girls,” 2004) stars as Maddie, whose dreams seem to crumble when the love of her life (Alexander Vlahos, “Outlander”) gets engaged to her best friend (Elizabeth Tan, “Top Boy”). Putting her own heartbreak aside, Maddie travels to Ireland to be a bridesmaid at their wedding. But, just days before the ceremony, Maddie makes a wish for true love, only to wake up in the morning as the bride-to-be. With everything she thought she’s ever wanted suddenly thrown right into her lap, Maddie soon realizes that her true love is someone else entirely.
Also starring Ed Speleers (“Downton Abbey”), Jane Seymour (“Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman”) and Ayesha Curry (“Stephen vs. The Game”), “Irish Wish” is directed by Janeen Damian (“Falling for Christmas,” 2022), written by Kirsten Hansen (“Chesapeake Shores”) and executive produced by Lohan, Damian and Hansen, alongside Steve Berman (“Sublime,” 2019), Bryan Bordon (“Falling for Christmas,” 2022), Donna Eperon (“Foundation”), Galen Fletcher (“No Men Beyond This Point,” 2015), Amanda Phillips (“When Calls the Heart”), Jimmy Townsend (“When Calls the Heart”) and first-time producer Bader Shammas.
“Young Royals” – Season 3
Return to Hillerska one last time, as the third and final season of the beloved, Swedish teen drama, “Young Royals,” premieres Monday, March 11, on Netflix. With five episodes dropping initially, and the series finale dropping the following week, on Monday, March 18, this highly-anticipated conclusion will see the return of Edvin Ryding (“The Abyss,” 2023) as Prince Wilhelm and Omar Rudberg (“Carousel,” 2023) as Simon Eriksson, a pair of star-crossed, schoolboy lovers who have faced endless scandal since the show’s beginning in 2021. Young Wilhelm (“Willie”) is second in line to Sweden’s throne — standing behind his elder brother — and is, again and again, forced to choose between his royal duties and his love for fellow student Simon, a charming choir boy drawn into the prince’s strict, upper-class world. Their relationship has struggled through controversies, secrets and endless shocks (including — no spoilers — a wild twist at the end of Season 2), leaving fans to wonder if the love birds will find their happily ever after in this final season, or if they will fly the coop alone once and for all. “Young Royals” also stars Felicia Maxime (“Heartbeats”), Malte Gardinger (“Triangle of Sadness,” 2022) and Frida Argento (“Fejk”).
“Invincible” - Season 2, Part 2
Choose your own destiny with the adult animated series “Invincible,” with Part 2 of the series’ second season premiering Thursday, March 14, on Prime Video. The four new episodes stream weekly on Thursdays. Based on the groundbreaking comic book by Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley, the series follows the story of Mark Grayson (voiced by Steven Yeun, “The Walking Dead”), an 18-year-old who is just like every other guy his age — except for his famous superhero father, Omni-Man (voiced by J.K. Simmons, “Whiplash,” 2014), and his own budding powers of flight, super strength and invincibility. As he steps out of his father’s once-great shadow and settles into his own skin, Mark begins to realize his father’s legacy may not be quite so “super” after all. In Season 2, Mark, still reeling from his father’s betrayal in Season 1, “struggles to rebuild his life as he faces a host of new threats, all while battling his greatest fear — that he might become his father without even knowing it” (per Prime Video). The series’ all-star voice cast includes Sandra Oh (“Killing Eve”), Zazie Beetz (“Atlanta”), Grey DeLisle (“The Loud House”), Chris Diamantopoulos (“The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse”), Walton Goggins (“Justified”), Gillian Jacobs (“Community”) and Jason Mantzoukas (“Big Mouth”).
“Frida” (2024)
Get an intimate look at the life of artist Frida Kahlo in the new feature-length documentary “Frida,” premiering Friday, March 15, on Prime Video. A “raw and magical journey through the life, mind and heart” of the iconic artist (per Prime Video), the film is told through Kahlo’s own words for the first time, with content drawn from her famed illustrated diary, revealing letters, essays and candid print interviews. Looking at more than 40 years of Kahlo’s life, the film, “brought vividly to life by lyrical animation inspired by her unforgettable artwork” (Prime Video), explores why Frida and her art have remained powerfully impactful to the public for decades. The feature film directorial debut of acclaimed editor Carla Gutiérrez (“RBG,” 2018), “Frida” is produced by Sara Bernstein (“The Dynasty: New England Patriots”), Loren Hammonds (“The Territory,” 2022), Alexandra Johnes (“Amazing Grace,” 2018), Katia Maguire (“Home Truth,” 2017) and Justin Wilkes (“Light & Magic”), with archival producers Adrián Guitérrez (“The Last Out,” 2020) and Gabriel Rivera.
“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version)” (2024)
Get ready, Swifties: Taylor has a brand-new gift for her fans. “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version),” premieres Friday, March 15, on Disney+. After premiering in theaters in 2023, “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” brought the musical sensation’s sold-out show to fans around the world. The exclusive cinematic experience gives fans a front-row seat to Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, as Taylor works her way through her iconic discography, accompanied by larger-than-life performances.

“A Real Bug’s Life” - Season 1
Putting microscopic creatures on the big screen, the first season of the National Geographic docuseries, “A Real Bug’s Life,” is now skittering across a screen near you, currently available to stream on Disney+. Narrated by Awkwafina (“The Farewell,” 2019) and directed by Nat Sharman (“Breakthrough: The Ideas That Changed the World”), this five-episode season delves into different bug biomes around the globe, using high-tech cameras to document the previously-unseen lives and intricate behaviors of some truly fascinating insects. From the concrete jungle of New York City, where a male jumping spider is on the hunt for some real estate, to the rainforests of Latin America, where newly-born orchid bees and leafcutter ants grapple with their massive surroundings, episodes bring viewers on an unforgettable, educational journey that not only brings Disney’s “A Bug’s Life” (1998) to life, but to share how fascinating these not-so-creepy crawlers truly are. With dung beetles, acacia ants, voracious flies, seemingly indestructible cockroaches, hungry ladybugs, and more, this family-friendly docuseries introduces budding entomologists to world that, as Disney says, “can be every bit as fantastical as any animated film,” allowing us to appreciate even the smallest of creatures.
“The Stones and Brian Jones” (2023) Get an in-depth look into one of rock ‘n’ rolls’ greatest bands when “The Stones and Brian Jones” premieres Thursday, March 14, on Hulu. This documentary from co-writer and director Nick Broomfield (“Ghosts,” 2006) follows Brian Jones, a founding member of The Rolling Stones. Through revealing interviews and never-before-seen archival footage, viewers get a comprehensive look at how such a pivotal member of the legendary rock band was pushed to background while other band members — most prominently, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards — monopolized the spotlight. Although Jones’ work writing songs for the Stones was nothing short of brilliant and served as a key part of the band’s success, this shift would eventually lead to his dismissal from the band and his tragic death at the age of 27. In addition to Broomfield, “The Stones and Brian Jones” is written by Marc Hoeferlin (“Tales of the Grim Sleeper,” 2014). Moreover, the documentary is produced by executive producers Dan (“Wild Wild Country”) and Josh Braun (“A History of Violence,” 2005); producers Broomfield, Hoeferlin, Kyle Gibbon (“Marianne & Leonard: Words of Love,” 2019) and Shani Hinton (“King Otto,” 2021); and associate producer Simon Orman (“Help! My House Is Haunted”).
“Diggers” (2006)
Learn that no one can drift forever when 2006’s “Diggers” begins streaming on Hulu Friday, March 15. This coming-of-age film follows a tight-knit group of four friends — Hunt (Paul Rudd, “I Love You, Man,” 2009), Lozo (Ken Marino, “Wanderlust,” 2012), Jack (Ron Eldard, “Super 8,” 2011) and Cons (Josh Hamilton, “Eighth Grade,” 2018) — who all work on Long Island, N.Y., as clam diggers like their fathers and grandfathers before them. When Hunt’s father (Beeson Carroll, “Rounders,” 1998) passes away, these friends begin to question their life choices and contemplate if they need to get with the changing times, both personally and professionally. Directed by Katherine Dieckmann (“Motherhood,” 2009) and written by Marino, “Diggers” also stars Maura Tierney (“ER”), Sarah Paulson (“American Horror Story”), Lauren Ambrose (“Six Feet Under”), Jack O’Connell (“Daredevil”), Alison Folland (“To Die For,” 1995) and Mather Zickel (“Rachel Getting Married,” 2008). Executive produced by Mark Cuban (“Shark Tank”), Todd Wagner (“Godsend,” 2004) and David Wain (“Wet Hot American Summer,” 2001).
