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 Tenzing, Dragon Ball Super: Beerus, Tyson, and La Bola Negra.
- Tenzing – Trailer
Tenzing tells the story of Tenzing Norgay, the Himalayan climber who became the first to summit Mount Everest after persuading the British climbing team that he belongs as an equal member rather than just a servant. The film stars Genden Phuntsok, Tom Hiddleston, and Willem Dafoe.
Release Date: In select theaters on October 9, 2026; on Apple TV on October 16, 2026
Synopsis: Tenzing Norgay, a gifted Himalayan climber who, alongside New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary, became the first to summit Mount Everest. Encouraged by his wife Dawa, Tenzing finds an ally in expedition secretary Jill Henderson. Together, they persuade Colonel John Hunt that Tenzing belongs on the British climbing team, rather than merely serving it. Where Western climbers see “Everest” as something to be conquered, Tenzing reveres “Chomolungma” as the sacred mother goddess. What follows is an ascent defined as much by the tensions between backgrounds, classes and competing ambitions as by the perils of the mountain itself. But high above the world, empire, rank and aspiration fall away, leaving two outsiders bound by mutual respect and trust — and for Tenzing, the fulfillment of both a lifelong dream and a spiritual calling.
- Dragon Ball Super: Beerus – Trailer
“Dragon Ball Super” gets its own “Kai” treatment with “Dragon Ball Super: Beeru” which will introduce “newly added and redrawn cuts, as well as a reconstructed narrative”.
