This week’s new entertainment releases include new music from rockers Greta Van Fleet and the return of John Stamos to TV as a hot-button NCAA basketball coach in “Big Shot” who ends up coaching girls at an elite private high school.

Colin Farrell is in negotiations to round out the movie's gallery of rogues, according to multiple reports. Andy Serkis, meanwhile, is reportedly in talks to play Bruce Wayne's faithful butler and closest confidant, Alfred Pennyworth. Serkis' time in the superhero-verse was far more recent, playing the villainous Klaue in Marvel's Black Panther. Thus far, Reeves has confirmed all of The Batman castings on his Twitter, so expect to see GIFs of Farrell and Serkis on your timeline soon.
