Cinematic universes are all the rage now but it's easy to forget how recent a phenomenon this actually is. The notion of a cinematic universe didn't really exist until around 2010 when it became clear what Marvel Studios was doing with its various superhero franchises in the lead-up to the record-breaking "The Avengers" in the summer of 2012. Sure, we had Kevin Smith's films making up the View Askewniverse starting with "Clerks" in 1994 -- not to mention Universal's monster movie crossovers from decades earlier. Still, once Marvel perfected the model, Hollywood chased it down rabidly. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it fails spectacularly. But arguably nobody has done it better this side of Marvel than James Wan and "The Conjuring" universe.

Exclusive: Grantham Coleman is joining the Starz family.
Coleman will star in a key role in season three of Power Book III: Raising Kanan. It comes after the drama series’ dramatic cliffhanger at the end of season two, which aired on Sunday.
Coleman, who has starred in series such as FX’s The Americans, will play Ronnie Mathis, Unique’s older brother, who was recently released from prison. Ronnie’s stoic demeanor belies a shocking ruthlessness. It’s not that Ronnie’s immoral, it’s that he’s amoral, conscienceless, unyielding and vindictive.
Production on season three of the family crime drama series has started in New York.
Set in the early 1990’s, the third series in the Power universe tells the origin story of Kanan Stark, and his entry into the criminal world through his mother, who ruthlessly runs the family’s drug empire. It stars MeKai Curtis in...

When Power Book III: Raising Kanan premieres its second season on August 14, we're in for a lot of drama.
Raquel "Raq" Thomas (Patina Miller) is preparing her son, Kanan Stark (MeKai Curtis), to take over for her.
"You're getting to an age, Kanan, where you're going to want to start figuring out what you want for your life," Raq says in the new trailer.
Raq is well and truly in control of everything when the second season picks up, at least according to the trailer.
Kanan's life was on the line, but it looks like he's ready to start anew.
Understandably, there are some skeptics when it comes to Kanan taking over.
"I know who my son is and I know what he's capable of," she fires back.
"I can't protect you the way that I thought I could, Mom," Kanan says at one point.

After the penultimate episode of the first season of Power Book III: Raising Kanan ended with Detective Malcolm Howard (Omar Epps) getting shot, his partner, Detective Shannon Burke (Shanley Caswell) is looking for answers in the finale. In TV Insider’s exclusive sneak peek of the Sunday, September 26 episode, “Paid in Full,” she stops Laverne “Jukebox” Ganner (Hailey Kilgore) to get them. “We need to talk,” Detective Burke demands. “Who told you someone was out hunting cops? Don’t f**k with me, Laverne, not tonight.” “I didn’t want nothing to happen to y’all, so I told you to watch your back,” Jukebox says. “Turns out, I was right. You’re welcome.” But as Burke reminds her, “we’re not friends. I’m a cop, and my partner got shot tonight and somehow, some way, you knew it was going to happen and I need you to tell me why.
