In a series of posts on X, formerly Twitter on Tuesday (20 January), 33-year-old "Broken" singer Kim Petras stated that she had officially asked to be dropped by her record label Republic Records, a brand owned by Universal Music. "I'm tired of having no control over my own life or career. I want to continue to self fund and self curate my own music. This is why I have formally requested to be dropped by @RepublicRecords," Petras wrote.
Bloomberg's Jason Schreier shared some of what he's heard on a recent episode of the Button Mash Podcast. He compared GTA 6's possible delay trajectory to Red Dead Redemption 2. "If you look at the history there, they announced it for fall 2017, then it slipped to spring 2018, and then it slipped again to fall 2018, and then it landed October of that year," he said. "So I wouldn't be super shocked if that is what happens again this time around."
"Fallout" Season 2 debuts on Prime Video this Wednesday, December 17, and with it comes 2025's final chance to live up to the long-promised "big moment for video game adaptations." That's a lot of pressure to put on series star Ella Purnell, but someone has to do something at a time when the Warner Bros. fire sale is throwing Hollywood into a tailspin - and collaboration with the roughly $188 billion games industry feels more urgent and essential than ever before.
We said when we set the last date, if a game requires more polish to be the best possible version of itself, then we will give that game more time. And that's exactly what happened. We feel really good about this release date. It's in the same fiscal year, it happens to be a great release window, and naturally we're really supportive of Rockstar's approach.
