It was a huge weekend for sci-fi fans, and even kinda for those of us who watch the occasional superhero movie to catch newlyweds Tom and Zendaya on screen together. San Diego Comic-Con delivered plenty of big reveals, including Ryan Gosling as Ghost Rider, Ryan Reynolds joining Avengers: Doomsday, and David Jonsson as the new Black Panther. The latter especially caught my eye because he stars in one of my favorite hidden gem rom-coms! |
Aside from the big updates (and the aforementioned Tom and Zendaya movie dropping later this week), it's admittedly a slow week for premieres. To fill your content queue, I rounded up five-star audiobooks that feel like movies in your mind in this week's Worth the Chat. |
