The final sunset of 2024 heralds a new dawn in showbiz. With 2025’s entertainment preview promising a year of unparalleled excitement, a savvy critic’s predictions have sent shockwaves through the internet. In a town where speculation is the currency, this preview has addressed the burning questions on everyone’s mind. From Taylor Swift
’s romantic rumors to the Man of Steel’s future, the assumptions have ignited a firestorm of fascination, and the digital skies are about to get very interesting.
Writer and critic David Hering recently took to X to share his own “cultural predictions for 2025,”
addressing every forthcoming possibility with a New Year’s twist. Hering’s crystal ball reveals a fairytale finale for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in a headline-grabbing engagement. But his “insufferable Superman”
scoop has the internet flying as speculation swirls around Henry Cavill
’s super-successor.
However, these two are just the tip of the iceberg of the cultural milestone Hering expects to take the Internet by storm.
