Pop culture is a never-ending world of updates, teases, trailers, and hopefully releases. What’s New Wednesday is Dorkaholics’ way to keep us all up to date with what’s new across comics, TV, film, games, and more! This week, the focus is on “Soul Mate”, “The WONDERfools”, “Passenger”, and “The Four Seasons” Season 2.
- Soul Mate – Trailer
2PM’s Taec-yeon stars alongside Hayato Isomura (the manipulative Sunato Banda in “Alice in Borderland”) in this drama about two strangers becoming more. In “Soul Mate”, Ryu Narutari leaves Japan after ruining his best friend’s life and is saved by a Korean boxer named Hwang Johan after a near death experience.

- The WONDERfools – Trailer
From writer Kang Eun-kyung (“”Gyeongseong Creature”, “Dr. Romantic”), comes a new comedy series about loveable misfits on a superpowered adventure, “The WONDERfools”, starring Park Eun-bin (“Extraordinary Attorney Woo”).
Release Date: On Netflix on May 15, 2026
Synopsis: Set in 1999, The WONDERfools is an adventure comedy series that follows a group of neighborhood misfits who unexpectedly gain superpowers and must band together to take on villains threatening world peace.
- Passenger – Trailer
Horror movie or PSA against road trips and van life? Either way, the trailer for “Passenger” has instilled in me the fear of cross country drives as well as any reason to live out of a van.
Release Date: In theaters May 22, 2026
Synopsis: After a young couple witnesses a gruesome highway accident, they soon realize they did not leave the crash scene alone, as a demonic presence called the Passenger that won’t stop until it claims them both turns their van life adventure into a nightmare.
- The Four Seasons Season 2 – Trailer
At Dorkaholics, we stan the artist known as Colman Domingo and we can’t wait to see second season of “The Four Seasons,” a series that will have you reacting like Colmon’s character Danny when he says, “what the fairy-tale fuck?”
Release Date: On Netflix on May 28, 2026
Synopsis: Coming off a hard year, our group of friends carries on their tradition of vacationing together — now with a baby in tow. The Four Seasons picks back up with the core group — Kate (Tina Fey), Jack (Will Forte), Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver), Danny (Colman Domingo), Claude (Marco Calvani), and Ginny (Erika Henningsen) — as they journey from the familiar comforts of the Jersey shore and upstate New York to the stunning landscapes of Italy. With warmth and wit, personal blind spots surface for the group as they each grieve their late friend and embark on new adventures.
