From dystopias to delays, here are your top entertainment headlines.

Return of Black Mirror

It's finally happening. Netflix heard fans, and the streaming giant is finally set to deliver the sixth season of Black Mirror.

The teaser for the latest season just dropped, but it's unclear what the episodes will be about this go-round. Netflix is describing it as "the most unpredictable season yet."

"I've always felt that Black Mirror should feature stories that are entirely distinct from one another, and keep surprising people — and myself — or else what's the point? It should be a series that can't be easily defined, and can keep reinventing itself," said Charlie Brooker, the show's creator and executive producer.

There are some fresh, yet familiar, faces joining this season, including Aaron Paul, Michael Cera, Zazie Beetz, Kate Mara, and Salma Hayek.

Season six is slated to premiere in June.

Chalamet's Chocolatier

The first look inside of the Timothée Chalamet-led Wonka has been revealed. The Dune actor appeared at CinemaCon in Las Vegas to give some details about the Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory  prequel.

The sneak peek trailer shows a bit on how Willy Wonka grew to become a connoisseur of chocolate. The iconic Oompa Loompas made an appearance on screen and it turns out actor Hugh Grant is taking up the role of one of the mischievous little helpers.

Wonka ships on December 15.

ATL Hawks Delay Janet Jackson

The seventh seed Atlanta Hawks surprised just about everyone with their sneaky game five win against the favored Boston Celtics in the 2023 NBA playoffs — even the folks who are tasked with scheduling events at Atlanta's State Farm Arena.

The upset victory had ramifications for concertgoers who were looking forward to seeing the iconic Janet Jackson, embarking on her Together Again tour. Her show scheduled for Thursday in the Hawks home arena was forced to delay until the next day as a result of the win.

Atlanta will face off against Boston once again on Thursday in a do-or-die game that will send them packing if they come up short.
