Well, filmmaker Matthew Vaughn just gave up the game-his endgame, really-in a new interview with “Happy Sad Confused” (yes, the gift that keeps on giving this week). The gist of his master plan? It’s ambitious and essentially doing for spies, with his company MARV, what Marvel has done for superheroes: an interconnected universe of espionage franchise, yes, all of his own.

Stephen Emery, a producer at Big Swell Entertainment, died unexpectedly following a workout at a Los Angeles gym on Saturday. He was 46.
