Looking Forward to Stretch Armstrong... and Back at Spectacular Spider-Man

When Ubisoft Milan pitched its idea for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle to Nintendo, the team had just three and a half weeks to craft a playable demo before showing it to Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto.

"The first time we proposed the prototype to Miyamoto, we had only three weeks and a half to come up with a playable prototype, because we truly wanted to show him gameplay," creative director Davide Soliani said on the debut episode of IGN Expert Mode.

Guardians of the Galaxy's James Gunn to Develop Starsky & Hutch TV Reboot

Amazon has announced plans to put Starsky & Hutch back on the streets, steered by Guardians of the Galaxy writer/director James Gunn.

The Prime Video project is being developed in conjunction with Sony Pictures Television Studios and is being described as a character-driven, one-hour police procedural and “a continuation of the original 1970s series.”

Gunn will be working with writing partners Mark Gunn and Brian Gunn.

“When I was a kid, Starsky & Hutch was the first ‘adult’ show I ever saw, and I fell in love,” said James Gunn in a statement. “It instilled in me a lifelong love of gritty street shows, of killer ’70s threads, and muscle cars. So when Neal Mortiz asked me if I wanted to be a part of an all new Starsky & Hutch on TV, I was instantly intrigued. I teamed up with the two writers I trusted most in the world to work with us, my brother Brian Gunn and my cousin Mark Gunn and together we came up with a show that I’m really proud of. At Amazon I believed we would have the most freedom to create something that is different, challenges the audience, and that strays outside the parameters of genre from time to time.”
