Ryan O'Rourke is a Senior News Writer at Collider with a specific interest in all things adult animation, video game adaptations, and the work of Mike Flanagan. He is also an experienced baseball writer with over six years of articles between multiple outlets, most notably FanSided's CubbiesCrib. Whether it's taking in a baseball game, a new season of Futurama or Castlevania: Nocturne, or playing the latest From Software title, he is always finding ways to show his fandom. When it comes to gaming and anything that takes inspiration from it, he is deeply opinionated on what's going on. Outside of entertainment, he's a graduate of Eureka College with a Bachelor's in Communication where he honed his craft as a writer. Between The IV Leader at Illinois Valley Community College and The Pegasus at Eureka, he spent the majority of his college career publishing articles on everything from politics to campus happenings and, of course, entertainment for the student body. Those principles he learned covering the 2020 election, Palestine, and so much more are brought here to Collider, where he has gleefully written on everything from the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes to Nathan Lane baby-birding sewer boys.

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Andor creator Tony Gilroy's return to filmmaking has just undergone a shakeup. Last night, news broke that Stranger Things and MCU star David Harbour had departed the project for personal reasons, and now, the Searchlight Pictures project has quickly snagged a former Batman to take his place. Will Arnett, who previously voiced the Caped Crusader in both Lego movies and The Lego Batman Movie, has been tapped to join Pedro Pascal in the much-anticipated Behemoth!, according to a new report on Wednesday afternoon. Although production started back in October, the reshoots needed to accommodate Arnett's addition are said to be minimal, as Harbour was busy throughout that time doing press for Stranger Things' fifth and final season.
