Ice Age 6 in Development with Returning Cast Members

Nov 10 2024

Disney has officially confirmed the development of Ice Age 6, with key cast members from the franchise returning for the latest adventure. The news was announced at the D23 Brazil event, where Ray Romano, who voices Manny the woolly mammoth, shared the exciting update in a video posted on YouTube.

In the video, Romano humorously comments on the cold temperature, joking that the air conditioning may have malfunctioned. He then introduces Queen Latifah, who voices Manny’s wife, Ellie, before announcing the return of the beloved characters. John Leguizamo, who voices Sid the sloth, also makes an appearance, teasing, “The herd is back baby.”

Alongside Romano, Latifah, and Leguizamo, Denis Leary (Diego the sabre-toothed tiger) and Simon Pegg (weasel Buck) are set to return for the sixth film. The new installment will follow the survival of Manny and his friends during the early Ice Age.

The last film in the series, Ice Age: Collision Course, was released in 2016. Disney has confirmed the new movie is currently in production, though a release date has yet to be announced.

NGOs And Moviment Graffitti Call For The Site To Benefit The People

Nov 10 2024

Today, three Gozitan NGOs — Għawdix, Din l-Art Ħelwa – Għawdex, and Wirt Għawdex — alongside Moviment Graffitti, carried out a direct action at Fort Chambray to demand its return to public hands. The activists entered the Fort to highlight the failure of the Government to open the site to the public, despite over 30 years of private concessions. They condemned the government’s decision to hand the Fort over to developers, planning to transform it into a large aparthotel and residential complex, despite the site’s historical significance.

The latest development proposal includes demolishing historic barracks to make way for a 64-room hotel, 50 serviced apartments, and over 100 residential units. The activists criticized the government for neglecting the Fort’s preservation, allowing it to deteriorate while continuing to support private interests. They emphasized that taxpayers would fund the restoration, while developers profit.

Despite past promises of public access, Fort Chambray remains closed. The activists argued that the Fort should be used for cultural, artistic, or educational purposes, benefiting both locals and tourists. The NGOs called for a shift away from profit-driven development to a more sustainable, public-serving future for the site.
