The world premiere for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (releasing November 11) took place on October 26, 2022 in LA. Superstar Rihanna was among the many stars in attendance after making headlines for announcing her return to music with "Lift Me Up". The song will be the lead single for the latest Marvel movie, and is the singer's first new track in six years.
It was a great week for Doctor Who fans. With The Power of the Doctor finally airing on October 23, outgoing Doctor Jodie Whittaker endured her final battle and regenerated into the 14th Doctor, David Tennant (again), setting a new mystery up for the Doctor Who 60th anniversary next year.
The special will also play host to our next mainline Doctor, Ncuti Gatwa, who will appear in the 60th-anniversary celebration before taking over as Doctor #15 fully for the 2023 holiday special.
The premiere for Netflix's upcoming sequel, Enola Holmes 2 took place at the Paris Theatre in New York City on October 27, and lead star Millie Bobby Brown (who plays the titular teen detective) dazzled onlookers alongside her co-star, Henry Cavill.
This week also marked the end of HBO's House of the Dragon which reached its dramatic climax on October 23 (24 in the UK). Aegon (Tom Glynn-Carney) put in an appearance at the last episode premiere at Cine Capitol in Madrid, Spain on October 24.
