Honda to cancel tie-up with GM for driverless taxi joint ventureHarry and Meghan 's absence from Selfridges' Royal bauble collection has become the butt of jokes online, with shoppers quipping they might end up "in the bargain bin". Fans looking to add a regal touch to their tree can snap up £40 ornaments representing King Charles, the late Queen Elizabeth, or the Prince and Princess of Wales at the iconic Oxford Street location. Sadly, the Sussexes and Queen Consort Camilla are conspicuously missing from the luxury lineup. Jibes about the oversight have spread across social media, with one user quipping: "I'm presuming that the Harry and Meghan baubles are in the bargain bin?!" Another chimed in: "I am sure Queen Camilla is very grateful!"

Others disparaged the looks of the Royal couple’s baubles, with a detractor saying: "Both awful looking. No doubt the royal sycophants on here will lap these up, though." Within the walls of Selfridges, while many were initially taken by the quirky baubles, sticker shock was common. A pair of American tourists, after posing beside Prince William's likeness, protested: "It's nice - but not for £40!" Another shopper voiced her skepticism to a companion, musing: "They're sweet - but £40 just for one?" Prince William's baubles found themselves nestled among those fashioned after British icon Audrey Hepburn and the American star Post Malone. Surrounding the future king were glittering figures of Amy Winehouse, Harry Styles , Freddie Mercury , Britney Spears, and Paul Hollywood. These festive ornaments, crafted from coloured glass, stand approximately 12 - 13cm tall. King Charles graces one in his majestic Coronation Day regalia, while a separate bauble honours Queen Elizabeth adorned with one of her numerous crowns. On its website, Selfridges extols its Kate Middleton decoration, calling it "a stunning depiction of Her Royal Highness Princess Kate ." About its Prince William ornament, the retailer boasts: "This piece is sure to add a hint of regal sophistication to your Christmas decor."

Between both upcoming Marvel movies and upcoming Marvel TV shows , there is no shortage of Marvel Cinematic Universe projects on the way in the coming years... but there are announced titles that remain a bit more mysterious than others. One of the standouts within that group is Armor Wars , which was first announced all the way back in late 2020 and has undergone some major behind-the-scenes changes as it has made its way through development. So what is going on with Armor Wars and where do things presently stand? What we do know about the project is admittedly limited, but between that information and machinations unfolding in the near future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are reasons to be a touch concerned that it will be a production that never starts rolling cameras. What We Know About Armor Wars Right off the bat, it should be noted that Armor Wars has never had a release date (it’s not a case of Marvel Studios regularly postponing a project a la what has been going on with the Blade movie ). That being said, it has had a complicated development history. When the title was first announced as part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s upcoming slate, the plan was to make it as a Disney+ original series. But while other titles announced at the same time as Armor Wars have either been completed ( Secret Invasion , I Am Groot ) or are on the way soon ( Ironheart ), the journey for the Iron Man spinoff has been much more complicated. I point out that the original plan for Armor Wars was to make it as a series because that’s no longer the direction that has been set. At D23 Expo in 2022, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige announced that the idea for the project was pivoting and that instead of being a show, it would instead become a movie . It was said at the time that medium would be a better fit for the story... but that was pretty much it, as it wasn’t given a release window or specifically integrated into plans for Phase 5 and Phase 6. As for what we’ve heard about Armor Wars in the time since then, there are reasons to wonder if the movie is ever actually going to get to the production stage. Yassir Lester Remains Attached As A Writer, But The Project Still Doesn’t Have A Director Don Cheadle Is Set To Star... But What About The Events Of Secret Invasion? The Iron Man-Shaped Hole In The Marvel Cinematic Universe May Be Getting Otherwise Filled Who Is Making Armor Wars? When a project at a major studio undergoes a change as big as changing mediums, it often coincides with shakeups on the creative side – but to the credit of Marvel Studios, Armor Wars is a project that has kept the same vision in play from pretty much the start. Y assir Lester was hired to be the head writer for the series in August 2021, and it was confirmed by Kevin Feige at D23 Expo 2022 that he would be staying onboard to write the screenplay. Lester has remained attached, having commented on the blockbuster’s development as recently as October 2024 . What Armor Wars doesn’t have presently, however, is a director attached who will bring the script to life, and you don’t have to be an obsessive cinephile to know that the hiring of a director is a pretty damn integral part of a movie’s development. The fact that there isn’t one on board suggests that there isn’t a firm story that is ready to have a particular vision applied, and that’s a troubling look from an outside perspective. CINEMABLEND NEWSLETTER Your Daily Blend of Entertainment News How Will Armor Wars Be Impacted By The Fallout From Secret Invasion? If you’re a Marvel Cinematic Universe fan who watches everything within the canon, you know that the status of Don Cheadle ’s James “Rhodey” Rhodes is very complicated presently. When Armor Wars was first announced as a TV series, the last time we had seen the character was in the final scenes of Avengers: Endgame ; he hadn’t even yet made his cameo in the first episode of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier . Since then, however, Cheadle played a key role in 2023’s Secret Invasion – which includes the revelation that the real James Rhodes was kidnapped by Skrulls at one point and replaced by a shapeshifting alien doppelgänger. It should go without saying that this development has to have a huge impact on Armor Wars , and it very much feels like a wrench in the gears. Based on the Marvel Comics story of the same name, the story is meant to concern the effort by Rhodey a.k.a. War Machine to stop the proliferation of Tony Stark’s incredible Iron Man technology – but that gets a bit muddled when you have to shoehorn in information about the protagonist’s alien abduction and absence from the world for an unclear number of years. I can easily imagine this being a creative roadblock around which the movie can’t navigate. Could The Mix Of Ironheart And Robert Downey Jr.’s Return To The MCU Render Armor Wars Unnecessary? Let’s now address the elephant in the room. When Armor Wars was first announced as a new Marvel Cinematic Universe project, there existed an Iron Man-shaped hole to fill. Robert Downey Jr .’s Tony Stark died in Avengers: Endgame , and the franchise understandably didn’t want to squander all of the love that exists for the character and his spectacular technology. A new series with War Machine at the center made for a logical project to develop... but with everything that has happened in the last few years, the time for it may be gone. In this conversation, the first project to keep in mind is Ironheart starring Dominique Thorne as the titular hero a.k.a. Riri Williams. Announced at the same as Armor Wars , the Disney+ original series has had some delays of its own (it was shot all the way back in mid-2022, prior to the character’s big debut in Black Panther : Wakanda Forever ), but the six episode series is finally set to arrive in June 2025 . And the character using Iron Man-esque equipment arguably makes Rhodey’s story somewhat redundant. The other part of this element of the discussion is the return of Robert Downey Jr. to the MCU. He won’t be back as Tony Stark, as it was announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 that he will be playing Victor Von Doom a.k.a. Doctor Doom , but I still contemplate it having a big picture impact on Armor Wars . Between Ironheart and Downey Jr.’s return, one could argue that the aforementioned Iron Man-shaped hole has been filled in the aggregate... and Armor Wars is still stuck in development hell. At present, the project’s future is hazy. Comments made by those involved in recent months have suggested that the film remains in active development, but one doesn’t get the sense that a great amount of resources are being put toward it, and it’s certainly not being emphasized as one of the MCU’s big upcoming titles on the road to Avengers: Doomsday (coming in May 2026) and Avengers: Secret Wars (coming in May 2027).

Lampkin, Freeman power Syracuse past Bucknell, 75-63 in final nonconference tune-upORLANDO, Fla. — It was a season of Iowa State comebacks. And fittingly, that's how it ended for the Cyclones. Game MVP Rocco Becht scored from a yard out on fourth-and-goal with 56 seconds remaining and No. 18 Iowa State capped the best season in school history by rallying past No. 15 Miami 42-41 in the Pop-Tarts Bowl on Saturday. Becht finished with 270 passing yards and three touchdowns for Iowa State (11-2), a program that entered this season — the 133rd year of Cyclone football — never having won more than nine games in a year. “If you look at this team, it’s really who they’ve been all year,” coach Matt Campbell said. The win marked the fourth time in 2024 that Iowa State got a winning score with less than two minutes remaining. For this one, the Cyclones rallied from a 10-point deficit in the second half — with Miami quarterback Cam Ward watching after a record-setting first half — to get win No. 11. Carson Hansen rushed for a pair of touchdowns for Iowa State. And as the MVP, Becht got the honor of choosing which flavor Pop-Tart was to be sacrificed in a giant toaster. “There's only one,” Becht said. “Cinnamon roll.” Ward passed for three touchdowns in his final college game, while Damien Martinez rushed for a career-high 179 yards for Miami (10-3), which dropped its sixth straight bowl game and lost three of four games to end the season — those three losses by a combined 10 points. "Disappointed that we couldn't pull out a victory," Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. “These guys have always fought and always competed and this was no exception. ... It's painful. It's as painful as it gets when you don't win. But there's a lot to build on.” NEBRASKA 20, BOSTON COLLEGE 15: Dylan Raiola passed for 228 yards and a touchdown as Nebraska built an 18-point lead through three quarters and hung on for its first bowl victory since 2015. Raiola hit Emmett Johnson with a 13-yard TD pass on fourth down with 3:02 remaining in the third quarter for a 20-2 edge and the Cornhuskers (7-6) held on for the win at Yankee Stadium. Raiola completed 23 of 31 passes in front of a sizable Nebraska crowd that celebrated the team's first bowl win since topping UCLA in the 2015 Foster Farms Bowl and first winning season since 2016. Raiola completed passes to 10 receivers, including Jahmal Banks, who finished with four receptions for 79 yards. Grayson James finished 25 of 40 for 296 yards as Boston College (7-6). UCONN 27, NORTH CAROLINA 14: Joe Fagnano threw for 151 yards and two touchdowns to help the Huskies (9-4) beat the Tar Heels (6-7) at Fenway Park, embarrassing incoming coach Bill Belichick's new team in his old backyard. Mel Brown rushed for 96 yards for UConn and Skyler Bell caught three passes for 77 yards, including a 38-yard touchdown that gave the Huskies a 10-0 first-quarter lead. Chris Culliver returned the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown, but that would be Carolina's only production in the first half. TCU 34, LOUISIANA 3: Josh Hoover passed for four touchdowns as the Horned Frogs (9-4) routed the Ragin' Cajuns (10-4) in Albuquerque. Hoover was 20 for 32 for 252 yards with an interception. Eric McAlister had eight catches for 87 yards and a TD for the Horned Frogs. TCU's defense also had a solid day, holding Louisiana-Lafayette to 209 yards, including 61 on the game's final possession. LATE FRIDAY LAS VEGAS BOWL USC 35, TEXAS A&M 31: Jayden Maiava threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to tight end Kyle Ford with eight seconds left to give Southern California the victory over Texas A&M (8-5) in the Las Vegas Bowl. A graduate of Liberty High School in nearby Henderson and a transfer from UNLV, Maiava helped the Trojans (7-6) overcome a 17-point deficit. Get local news delivered to your inbox!

Biden approves national security memo on China, Iran, North Korea and Russia ahead of Trump's returnStill fighting for a spot in the playoffs, the Seattle Seahawks will have to finish out the regular season without one of their top playmakers. Running back Kenneth Walker has been placed on injured reserve after suffering an ankle injury Sunday against Minnesota. Walker’s regular season is done and will not be eligible to return until well into the playoffs, most likely around the NFC Championship Game. Seattle faces Chicago on Thursday Night Football, needing a win to keep slim odds of making the NFC field alive. “Seahawks placed RB Kenneth Walker III on injured reserve, the result of an ankle injury he suffered late in last weekend’s game,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter said via X. Just 11 games were played by Walker this season, dealing with injuries throughout. His numbers were not what we had been accustomed to during his previous two years. Walker ran for 573 yards and seven touchdowns on 153 carries while averaging under 4.0 yards per carry for the first time in his career. Zach Charbonnet will take over as Seattle’s main running back. Rookie George Holani has been signed off the practice squad as well, potentially making his fourth-ever appearance with the team against Chicago. The Seahawks currently have just a 14% chance of making the playoffs. Even with a win against the Bears, Seattle would see their odds bump up by one to 15%. Two consecutive losses have put them in the position. Even so, people inside the organization know all they can do is try to get a win on Thursday. “We all understand what situation we’re in, the focus is on going to win this football game,” head coach Mike Macdonald said. “So do what it takes to do that and play our best football, that’s what we’re focused on right now.” There is still a chance to win the NFC West, with the Los Angeles Rams currently having control of the situation. Seattle will head to SoFi Stadium on the final day of the regular season, potentially figuring out who gets the division crown and a home game when the playoffs begin. Unfortunately, all of this will be done without Walker. The running back will treat his ankle and be prepared in case there is a surprising playoff run from his teammates.
