Were you bummed that Nothing’s Phone (1) didn’t get an official U.S. release when the transparent Android phone launched last summer?

Are you disappointed with the $299 “beta membership” for U.S. customers that gets you a Phone (1) with the caveat that it only supports the N41 5G band on T-Mobile and there’s no 5G connectivity on AT&T or Verizon?

That all changes this year.

Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei has confirmed to Inverse that the company will make a significant push into the U.S. with its next flagship Android phone, the Phone (2), launching later this year. “We decided to make the U.S. our No. 1 priority in terms of markets,” Pei says.

“We couldn't do it earlier because we were only in our second year and our hands were tied building the team as we were building the products. Now as we're on a more solid footing, we can take a step forward.”

For all the mind-altering psychosexual horrors they harbor, the nightmarish new worlds of Brandon Cronenberg outwardly resemble our own.

It’s in digging beneath the surface — of his characters’ civilized exteriors as much as their quietly sinister surroundings — that strange and twisted realities start to erupt.

Cronenberg and Infinity Pool star Alexander Skarsgärd discuss human civility, animal impulse, and their NC-17 sci-fi horror-satire, which blurs the lines between them.

Amid the success of The Last of Us at HBO, Amazon is hunting for a game adaptation of its own: Tomb Raider.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the online giant has picked up the film and TV rights to the Tomb Raider games. THR reports Amazon is planning a shared universe, all centered around heroine Lara Croft. Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge is set to write a series based on the game, though she’s not attached to act in it or work on the associated feature film. The project is part of a broader deal between Waller-Bridge and Amazon.
