Back in May the first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog, a movie based on the SEGA video game character of the same name, was released by Paramount Pictures. The response could not have been worse. The response was so overwhelmingly negative, in fact, that the movie instantly became the internet’s favorite subject for jokes and memes galore. It was a disaster.

The reason for this wildfire of negativity was the design of the title character. It was…poor, to put it nicely. The damage was so great that Paramount was forced to throw away a significant amount of time, effort, and money that had gone into designing and animating the character, and start over in hopes of stopping the bleeding before it was too late.

Now, after deleting the first trailer, poster, and more (though the internet never forgets, of course), Paramount has released another trailer with the newly designed Sonic. You can check it out below.

CBS All Access, CBS’s subscription streaming service, announced on Thursday that Stephen King will write the last part of The Stand, their miniseries adaptation of the author’s 1978 bestselling novel of the same name. King’s contribution to the upcoming 10-episode limited event series will be a new coda for the story that won’t be found in the book.

During a presentation on Thursday at the Television Critics Association, per Deadline, CBS All Access EVP Julie McNamara said:

Quentin Tarantino‘s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is a mystery crime drama set during the final days of the Golden Age of Hollywood. The film will follow a TV actor (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his stunt double (Brad Pitt) embarking on an odyssey to make a name for themselves in the film industry. On this perilous journey, they happen to find themselves being the neighbors of Sharon Tate (Margot Robbie), an actress herself, who will soon become one of the murder victims of Charles Manson and his followers.

Some new images have been released giving us the best look at the film so far. Check them out below.

Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, a crime film set in Los Angeles reportedly around the time of the 1969 Manson Family murders, is currently in production, and slowly the cast are sending out their headshots from the film via social media. We saw our first look at Leonardo DiCaprio as actor Rick Dalton and Brad Pitt as his longtime stunt double Cliff Booth. Now we are getting our first look at Margot Robbie as Sharon Tate, the pregnant actress wife of director Roman Polanski, who was one of the Manson murder victims.
