The Belle Of The Ball: Emilie De Ravin Is Back For 'Once Upon A Time' Season 7
Can you hear that sound? The "Belles" are ringing again in Storybrooke. As ABC's Once Upon A Time prepares for its soft reboot and a whole new fairytale for Season 7, it sounds like it won't wholly be a case of out with the old and in with the new. Despite the beanstalk-sized casting cull of Season 6, it looks like #EmiliedeRavin's break from #OnceUponaTime could be much shorter than we expected.

Ca-She-No Royale: Chris Hemsworth Wants His 'Huntsman' Co-Star As A Female James Bond
Looking for a license to thrill? Well, how about a female James Bond? While the haters will undoubtedly be reaching for their Walther PPK to shoot down the idea before it takes root, we have only recently seen that even in fiction, nothing lasts for ever. With the BBC doing a gender-flip and casting Jodie Whittaker as the first ever female Doctor Who, surely it is only a matter of time before other franchises start to follow suit?

Squad Goals AF: 'Suicide Squad' Actor 'Pretty Sure' She Won't Be Back For The Sequel
Say what you want about David Ayer's Suicide Squad, but the DCEU's villainous vacation certainly had us all talking — just maybe for the wrong reasons. It may have been a commercial success, but Suicide Squad detonated a neck bomb in the review stakes everywhere. Something just didn't quite fit, while the ensemble cast of #MargotRobbie, #WillSmith, and #JaredLeto jarred against each other. Sure, there were highlights like Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, but let's be honest, #SuicideSquad isn't exactly the jewel in the #Batman crown of anyone's DVD collection.

The 2016 election year has to be one of the craziest elections to date. Who knew that the host of The Apprentice would become the Republican candidate? But if you don't like Donald Trump, then I have another option for you. How about Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation? Sure, she's a fictional character on a beloved comedy series, but the more I think about it the more it makes sense to have her as president. Still not convinced?

There could be trouble ahead, and I don't mean from the Mad Titan Thanos. If your surname is Stark, Rogers, or Banner, better get writing your resumé because it sounds like the whole state of Marvel's Cinematic Universe is up in the air. As we gallop toward the #MCU's 10th anniversary and a celebration with Avengers: Infinity War, it is only right that fans of the highest-grossing franchise in cinema start looking to the future.

Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together: 6 Celebrity Breakups More Devastating Than Hiddleswift
Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston surprised a lot of fans of both when they decided to get together in the first place, so now that the two of them have announced they've gone their separate ways there isn't much left to surprise us. Maybe it was that it seemed weird from the start or maybe that it was that they just swamped us with too much Hiddleswift in the scant few months they were together, but this is one celebrity breakup that hasn't exactly devastated us. There have been celebrity breakups in the past, however, which broke our hearts and felt like family splitting up.

If there was ever any doubt as to actor Stephen Amell's physical capabilities, he put them to rest by taking on the #AmericanNinjaWarrior course on Red Nose Day. In a sneak preview last week, Amell tackled the first few obstacles with ease, but we didn't get to see his entire course run until Thursday night on NBC — just one night after the incredible, fan-pleasing Arrow Season 5 finale.
