Don Cheadle is as Puzzled About Emmy Nom as You Are

Actor Don Cheadle picked up an Emmy Nomination earlier today in the "Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series" category for his work on The Falcon And The Winter Soldier. We called it a "head-scratcher" due to the fact it represents less than two minutes of screentime for the actor, who reprised his role as James "Rhodey" Rhodes (aka War Machine) in the first episode of the show. The brief, walk-and-talk appearance didn't call for a wide performance range from the talented actor, not did it feel like scene-stealing moment.

Cheadle has responded to the nom on social media and, well, he's just as puzzled as the rest of us. Here's the tweat.

Deadpool and Korg React to Free Guy

The long-delayed 20th Century Studios video-game pic Free Guy arrives in theaters next month. To hype the overdue release, the studio created a trailer reaction video featuring stars Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi, who play the hero and villain in the film respectively. However, the two comedic actors did the segment in character as their Marvel counterparts Deadpool and Korg. Enjoy four minutes of two of the funniest entertainers doing their MCU best. Free Guy arrives on August 13.

WandaVision Scores 23 Emmy Noms

The Television Academy has announced the nominations for the 73rd Emmy Awards. Comic-based fare made a strong showing but none as strong as Marvel Studios' WandaVision. The show scored nominations for "Original Limited or Anthology series," for stars Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany and Kathryn Hahn and for the song "Agatha All Along," to name a few.
