Taika Waititi Isn't Ready to Give Up on His Akira Live-Action Movie Previously: Enderby Entertainment’s pandemic pic Zero Contact (formerly called 92) with Anthony Hopkins will premiere on new Nft platform Vuele later this summer, possibly the first time a feature-length film - versus, say, a basketball highlight clip - is offered for sale as a so-called non-fungible token.

Season three had plenty going on without that little adventure.
