Movie Review: ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,’ starring Angela Bassett, Lupita Nyong’o
Following the shocking death of ‘Black Panther’ star Chadwick Boseman, Marvel Cinematic Universe and writer/director Ryan Coogler found themselves in almost impossible position with the daunting task of making ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ without its star.

Movie Review: ‘Bumblebee’ Starring Hailee Steinfeld, John Cena, Angela Bassett,
One of the earliest Christmases I can remember, I remember asking for as many Transformers as I could get.
