Fans who have completed all challenges should go to USAopoly’s CLUE®: Game of ThronesTM Experience Booth #1017 on Saturday between 9:30am and 5pm and enter their name, contact info and Twitter handle into a raffle for a chance to win a prize pack valued at approximately $200. A total of 15 winners will be chosen at random and will be contacted Saturday evening with information about claiming their prizes.
Challenges:
• Post a photo of yourself in front of the MEY for Game of Thrones jewelry display case inside the Hall of Faces Experience, located across from the Omni Hotel on L Street in the Gaslamp District.

• Post a photo of yourself wearing (or with someone wearing) The Night King mask ($669.95) at CFX Booth #2944. Their silicone White Walker masks have been a hit at Comic Cons past, and now CFX is back with a new mask modeled after the king of the White Walkers. Pale blue striated flesh stretches upwards into a regal and organic ice crown to capture the look of this malevolent and powerful being.
• Post a photo of yourself with The Night King Bust (Metallic Silver) at Dark Horse Booth #2615. The bust measures 8-3/4 inches tall.

This silver plated bust is available in a limited edition of 200 for $150.
• Post a photo of yourself wearing The Royal Crown of King Robert Baratheon at Factory Entertainment Booth #2647. Copied directly from the original screen-used prop, this 1:1 scale replica is finely crafted in solid metal to give it a heavy and suitably regal feel. Each limited edition replica (price TBA) is then hand-finished in a lustrous gold effect metal and has inset reproduction gemstones. The replica includes a specially designed iron sword motif display stand that allows the replica to rest on the hilts of four swords.
• Post a photo of yourself with a Game of Thrones Sigil Stationery Set at Insight Editions Booth #1703. These deluxe stationery sets ($34.95 each), themed to House Stark, House Lannister and House Targaryen, provide all the items fans will need to communicate with friends, bannermen, and faraway Maesters.

Preview: War 2 – NTR Jr. and Hrithik Roshan Collide in an Action Extravaganza This July

The stage is set for one of the most anticipated cinematic showdowns of 2025 as War 2 unites Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr. in a high-octane spy thriller. Releasing in July 2025, this sequel to the 2019 blockbuster War promises to be a game-changer for Indian action cinema, combining heart-stopping stunts, gripping drama, and unparalleled star power.
Hrithik Roshan reprises his iconic role as Kabir, the brilliant and unrelenting intelligence officer. Opposite him, NTR Jr. delivers another powerhouse performance following his success in RRR and the recently released Devara. NTR Jr.’s portrayal in Devara, a gritty and emotionally charged action-drama, has already cemented his status as one of the most versatile stars of Indian cinema. His role in War 2 is rumored to bring an intense, enigmatic energy that will complement and challenge Hrithik’s suave and strategic Kabir.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji (Brahmāstra, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani), War 2 is a pivotal entry in YRF’s expanding spy universe, which includes blockbusters like Pathaan and Tiger Zinda Hai. Mukerji’s direction is set to deliver a perfect blend of jaw-dropping action sequences, emotional depth, and a storyline that interconnects the spy universe’s key players.
The combination of Hrithik Roshan’s finesse and NTR Jr.’s raw intensity promises fireworks on the big screen. Both actors have proven their mettle in action-packed roles, and their pairing is already creating a buzz among fans worldwide. The film’s international locales, intricate espionage plot, and adrenaline-pumping action set pieces ensure that War 2 will be nothing short of a visual spectacle.
Having already conquered audiences with his portrayal in Devara, where he showcased his commanding presence and action chops, NTR Jr. brings fresh excitement to War 2. His collaboration with Hrithik Roshan is a casting masterstroke that raises the stakes for this ambitious sequel.
Mark your calendars—July 2025 will be an unforgettable month for Indian cinema as War 2 takes audiences on a rollercoaster ride of action, intrigue, and star-studded brilliance.

Solo Leveling: Could We Be Getting Five Seasons and a Live-Action Movie?

The anime adaptation of Solo Leveling has already created a massive buzz among fans of the popular webtoon and light novel series. Since its premiere announcement, the hype around the story of Sung Jin-Woo’s rise from the weakest hunter to the world’s mightiest has been palpable. Now, rumors swirling around the anime industry suggest that not only will the series extend over five seasons but it could also lead to a live-action movie adaptation. Could these rumors hold weight? Let’s break it down.
When Solo Leveling was confirmed as an anime adaptation, it was no surprise that expectations skyrocketed. The original story, written by Chugong and illustrated by the late DUBU, captivated millions with its breathtaking battles, compelling character arcs, and immersive world-building. The anime is being handled by A-1 Pictures, known for stunning productions like Sword Art Online and Blue Exorcist, which only adds to the excitement.
Given the vast amount of material in the source material, a five-season roadmap seems plausible. The light novel spans 270 chapters, and the webtoon is equally rich with detailed arcs. A five-season structure would allow the story to breathe, delivering each arc with precision instead of rushing through Sung Jin-Woo’s epic evolution.
The rumor mill isn’t just limited to multiple anime seasons. Whispers of a live-action movie have also captured fans’ imaginations. Hollywood’s growing interest in anime adaptations (One Piece, anyone?) combined with Solo Leveling’s global fanbase makes the possibility of a movie adaptation realistic.
Some speculate that the live-action adaptation would focus on the final arcs of the story or possibly a standalone tale set in the Solo Leveling universe. While anime-to-live-action transitions are often met with skepticism, the success of recent projects (Alita: Battle Angel and Netflix’s One Piece) suggests that studios are finally learning how to respect the source material.
Adapting a visually stunning and fast-paced story like Solo Leveling into live action would be no small feat. The series’ supernatural battles, intricate dungeon designs, and fantastical creatures would require top-tier CGI and production quality to match fan expectations. Casting would also be a critical factor—who could embody Sung Jin-Woo’s quiet intensity or Cha Hae-In’s graceful strength?
Furthermore, the cultural specificity of Solo Leveling, rooted in Korean mythology and history, would need to be handled with care. Fans are understandably wary of “Hollywood-ization,” which has often led to diluted or overly Westernized interpretations of beloved stories.
The possibility of a five-season anime adaptation has been met with widespread excitement. Many fans believe that extending the anime over multiple seasons would allow for a more faithful retelling of the story, capturing every thrilling fight and emotional moment. The potential for a live-action movie, however, has sparked mixed reactions. While some are optimistic about the idea of seeing Jin-Woo in a new medium, others worry about how the story’s essence could translate to live action.
While nothing official has been confirmed, the idea of Solo Leveling receiving five seasons and a live-action movie speaks to the enduring popularity of the franchise. Whether these rumors turn out to be true or simply fan speculation, one thing is certain: Solo Leveling is set to become one of the biggest anime adaptations in recent memory.
As we await more news, one thing’s for sure—this is just the beginning of Solo Leveling’s rise to global dominance. Fans, stay tuned. You won’t want to miss what comes next.
What do you think about the possibility of a live-action Solo Leveling movie? Do you believe the anime can deliver on its five-season promise? Let us know in the comments!
