If you enjoy layered stories built on real-world issues, this one's for you. In 2022, a web series titled Human dropped on Disney+ Hotstar without much fanfare. No massive promotions, no household names leading the cast—but what it had was a storyline that hits hard.
In a time where content is everywhere, Human stood out not because of glitz, but because of guts. What's Human all about?
Set in the underbelly of the healthcare world, Human explores the shocking reality of illegal drug trials on poor people. It doesn't sugar-coat anything. Instead, it shows how far pharmaceutical giants can go when driven by profit, even if that means putting lives at risk.
The plot takes us deep into the workings of hospitals, research labs, and the blurred lines between morality and ambition. Each episode pulls you deeper into a system that seems all too believable—and that's what makes it haunting. Performances that will stay with you
Shefali Shah and Kirti Kulhari lead the cast, and both actresses are phenomenal. They play characters who are complex, flawed, and entirely unforgettable. Shefali in particular delivers one of her finest performances to date.
Other strong performances come from Ram Kapoor, Seema Biswas, Vishal Jethwa, and Riddhi Kumar, all of whom lend weight to a story that's already heavy with tension. Binge-worthy with a message
Human has 10 episodes, and chances are you'll fly through them. The writing is sharp, the direction is focused, and the pace rarely falters. It's the kind of show you think about long after it's over. Where to watch?
The series is streaming now on Disney+ Hotstar.

Avatar To Get An Animated Spin-Off? James Cameron Says ‘We're Still Gathering…'

Published By : Bang Showbiz With Avatar: Fire and Ash due to hit screens later this year, director James Cameron has revealed he is hoping to make an animated Avatar series or movie. James Cameron has teased he might make an animated Avatar spin-off series or movie. The 70-year-old director is currently finishing off the sci-fi franchise's next instalment Avatar: Fire and Ash, and Cameron has now revealed he pitched an animated spin-off series or film to Disney. Speaking with Empire magazine, he explained: 'I said, 'Look, I want to do an animated anthology series that's essentially in the world, but stories that you wouldn't have expected from that world. 'There might even be an animated feature in there — it might be a feature for streaming, or a theatrical feature." The Terminator filmmaker added this Avatar project would be akin to that of The Animatrix – which was the animated anthology spin-off movie of The Matrix franchise. He said: 'A good early example is The Animatrix, where they went afield in the Matrix world. 'These are all great examples for how we can add texture and baroque detail to the world of Avatar." Cameron hopes the animated Avatar series will deliver 'backstory on characters and tangential stuff that happened off-camera within the movies". He added: 'Who first landed on Pandora? The first expedition. You could go anywhere you want." Even so, the Titanic director admitted it was still early days for the project. He said: 'We haven't done much with that yet. 'We're still gathering our stories and that sort of thing, and I've got to find the boutique filmmakers, the animators, that want to do it." Avatar: Fire and Ash will pick up after the events of 2022's The Way of Water, and follow Na'vi Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) and their family as they face a fierce new threat from the fire‑wielding 'Ash People' tribe led by Varang (Oona Chaplin) – reigniting conflict on a turbulent Pandora. As grief and old enemies resurface, alliances with the Metkayina clan will test their strength, faith, and survival. Avatar: Fire and Ash – which is slated to hit screens on December 19, 2025 – will also see the return of Sigourney Weaver's Kiri and Kate Winslet's Ronal. In the first trailer for Avatar: Fire and Ash – which was released ahead of The Fantastic Four: First Steps – audiences are plunged back into the fiery heart of Pandora. The Na'vi face a chilling new threat in the form of the Ash People, also called the Mangkwan Clan, commanded by the formidable leader Varang (Chaplin). Scenes hint at an internal Na'vi civil war, with echoes of betrayal and spiritual conflict as Varang declares to Kiri: 'Your goddess has no dominion here". The movie also sees the return of Colonel Quaritch (Stephen Lang) in a Na'vi body, raising the stakes further as alliances blur and old enemies resurface. Meanwhile, Jake Sully's (Worthington) family, including Neytiri (Saldana) and their children, stand on the brink of war. Stunning new visuals feature dramatic volcanic landscapes, flying creatures, and expansive aerial and aquatic combat sequences – all pointing to a darker, more elemental chapter in the saga. Visually dazzling and emotionally charged, the trailer teases an epic scale of conflict and character evolution on Pandora. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

The meme wave arose from Comic-Con interviews for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Half funny, half endearing, and pretty much tiresome. A Meme's Creation: "My Anxiety Is Right Here" It all started with something quite innocent. But it took on an entirely new life when paired with Pascal's nervous behavior in interviews with Vanessa Kirby for the "Fantastic Four". Netizens simply cannot let go of Pascal's gestures and postures-of touching, shifting, and nervously smiling-when suddenly, the Pedro Pascal Anxiety Cinematic Universe came to life. Marvel Rivals Memes Stretch It Even Further While lots of other content creators tried fishing for viral soundbites, Loserfruit stood apart by having Pascal and co. play Marvel Rivals. Yes, you read that right, Pascal wielding Mr. Fantastic's stretchy arms is now canon, at least digitally. The clip has turned into full-blown meme material, with fans captioning it things like, 'Pedro trying to stretch his nerves out of his chest' or 'This is what anxiety looks like in-game. ' Most Hilarious Memes You Can't Miss 1. One fan combined a picture from the 2004 film The Notebook. Pure comic gold. 2 . Marvel Rivals memes have hilariously mirrored the Pedro Pascal anxiety trend, with fans using in-game footage of Pascal playing Mister Fantastic to exaggerate his nervous energy. Whether he's stretching across maps or fumbling objectives, the memes playfully suggest even in-game, Pedro can't escape his trademark anxious charm. Image via: Marvel Rivals Fans/Facebook Pascal's anxiety intensifies, now even Mister Fantastic can't cope! Image via: Marvel Rivals fans/x 4. 'Pedro Pascal is physically affectionate with the women around him", a fan shared this. 5. A fan mentioned in a meme, 'Pedro Pascal on his way to find the nearest female after claiming social anxiety'. 6. Some mentioned, How come Pedro Pascal never gets anxiety around Bella Ramsey? Image via: Meme/x 7. Someone shared another funny meme. 8. Someone commented, Pedro Pascal during interviews because he has anxiety 9. Someone mentioned the reaction of his PR team too. 10. Some made the meme saying, 'me wondering why Pedro Pascal never has 'anxiety' around his male co-workers' A Meme Born of Love and a Little Exhaustion As much as the fans roast Pascal, it is mostly in good spirits. Yet, some quarters of the Internet are now wondering whether it is time for a Pascal pause. With Marvel Rivals gameplay only being added to the spectacle, the Pedro Pascal meme machinery is not going to slow down anytime soon, and it is really the charm of it.
