00:00A film version of Hamilton is coming to Disney Plus this summer.
00:03More Tiger King could be headed to Netflix, but spotlighting a different King of Cats.
00:07And Robert Pattinson opens up about how his version of Batman will compare to those we've seen before.
00:12First, you'll be able to watch the film version of the musical Hamilton much earlier than expected.
00:16The project was originally set for an October 15, 2021 theatrical release.
00:21But now it will instead hit Disney Plus on July 3rd of this year, making it available over the July 4th weekend.
00:27Happy Independence Day.
00:28Filmed at Broadway's Richard Rodgers Theater in June 2016, the movie features Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda in the starring role,
00:35as well as the rest of the stage show's original Broadway cast.
00:38Next, get ready all you cool cats and kittens, more Tiger King could be coming your way, but with a twist.
00:43THR's Neha Joy has more.
00:45The filmmakers behind Tiger King, Murder, Mayhem, and Madness are set to be working on a follow-up to the surprise Netflix breakout,
00:51but this time they won't be following Joe Exotic.
00:53The new content is reportedly taking a deeper look into big cats in captivity,
00:57and this time the filmmakers are researching the 2003 mauling attack that ended the Siegfried and Roy show.

01:10A spokeswoman for Good Films told THR it was untrue that the direction is going in a more conservational route on its forthcoming Tiger King sequel material.
01:20Netflix didn't return a request for comment.
01:22And Robert Pattinson says he's confident he's found his gap for portraying Batman.
01:26Pattinson plays the caped crusader in Matt Reeves' The Batman.
01:29Reeves previously shared this screen test of the actor on social media,
01:32as well as these photos of Pattinson as the Dark Knight with the Batmobile.
01:36In a series of interviews published in GQ on Tuesday,
01:38the actor said he is well aware the Batman character has been well explored and much of the ground covered,
01:44but not all of it.
01:45He told the magazine,
01:46I mean, you've seen this sort of lighter version,
01:47you've seen a kind of jaded version,
01:49a kind of more animalistic version,
01:51and the puzzle of it becomes quite satisfying to think,
01:53where's my opening?
01:55And also, do I have anything inside me which would work if I could do it?
01:58And then also, it's the legacy part, right?
02:00I like that.
