"Ice Age 6" is already in development
This was accidentally told by actor John Leguizamo, who voiced sloth Sid.
This happened during a broadcast on American radio NPR. The presenter said that his son adores the series "Ice Age", to which the actor replied: "I'm so glad to hear it! We're just about to shoot "Ice Age 6."
The last numbered part of the franchise was released in 2016. Work on the new project is complicated by the fact that Disney closed the Blue Sky studio three years ago, which has been working on the series since the very first cartoon.

First impressions of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 — a brutal action game about space marines:
• the plot continues the story of Captain Titus, which began in the first part. Only now you will destroy the hordes of tyranids and Chaoites;
• the main thing is not to overestimate expectations. The game looks great, but inside it's the same action game from 13 years ago;
• something is constantly happening on the screen, and there are thousands of tyranids and epic scenes around. But all this is happening in the background, behind an invisible wall. You also participate in less massive battles, in closed locations-arenas;
• The combat system has become more dynamic, but still very clumsy and simple. Despite this, it is fun to play and it fulfills its function. You need to combine melee and ranged weapons, constantly performing spectacular finishing;
• The entire storyline campaign can be played in a cooperative with three friends. Moreover, the game has additional missions for co-op and multiplayer. Unfortunately, the servers are still unstable and constantly interrupting matches;
• despite the huge ENT and the history of the universe, the developers manage to introduce us to it in an accessible and simple way, without resorting to notes and long stories. The local narrative is enough to captivate you and show you a unique and frightening world.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 evokes controversial feelings. On the one hand, this is a great action game that creates epic moments every minute, and the unique atmosphere only multiplies the impressions. At the same time, the game still suffers from the typical problems of medium—budget projects - monotonous gameplay, limited locations and outdated mechanics. No matter what, Saber Interactive has brewed a great soup that is worthy of your attention. The game has its drawbacks, but this does not detract from the fact that we have a unique adventure that should not be missed.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is already available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
