The new Tenet trailer is debuting in Fortnite. Yes, Fortnite

The trailer for Christopher Nolan’s mind-bending new blockbuster Tenet will debut in a bizarre new medium.

In addition to the usual releases on social media at 5 p.m. PT Thursday, the mysterious film’s latest trailer will also appear at the same time inside Fortnite, Epic Games’ hit online shooter.

The trailer will appear on the big screen inside the Fortnite’new “Party Royale” mode, a competition-free version of the game. The trailer will screen at the top of every hour, Epic announced in a tweet.

Grab a front row seat in Party Royale for a world premiere!

Catch the latest trailer for Christopher Nolan’s @TENETFilm at the top of every hour on the big screen starting at 8 PM ET.

Fortnite — once a free-to-play battle royale game —  has hosted numerous in-game events, such as concerts by Marshmello and Travis Scott. The latter’s concert series earlier this spring drew a record-setting 27 million players to log on and watch.

I find myself taken aback when comparing Fortnite's original 2017 release to what it became in 2022. It's wild to think that substantial, game-altering updates are coming to Fortnite all these years later.

The next character coming to Fortnite is none other than WWE's John Cena. That's right, the champ is here -- or will be -- on July 28 at 8 p.m. ET, to coincide with the WWE Summerslam premium event, which takes place on July 30. Cena will be available in the Fortnite item shop, and will come with multiple additional cosmetics.

It's unclear how much the bundle will cost, but it'll likely be around 2,000 to 2,500 V-bucks or so based on previous Fortnite pricing.

After lying dormant for nearly a year, the DCEU has stormed back into pop culture consciousness. At this year's San Diego Comic-Con, Warner Bros. took advantage of its prime Hall H real estate and brought out the cast and directors of two of 2022's most highly anticipated movies of the year.

The first one up is Shazam! Fury of the Gods. A sequel to the 2019 hit, Shazam 2 brings back Zachary Levi as everyone's favorite teenage superhero not named Miles Morales or Ms. Marvel's Kamala Khan, Billy Batson. He's joined by his foster brothers and sisters, who, if you remember, turned into their own versions of Shazam at the end of that film.
