00:00 As we head into the new year, it's easy to look ahead at what's to come.
00:04 But what are we going to be obsessed with culturally in 2024?
00:07 We've put our heads together and come up with hot stuff for 2024 to answer just that.
00:13 First off the ranks and looking towards films, we have Argyle.
00:16 With a star-studded cast, it's easy to see why people are talking about this.
00:21 I mean, we've got Dua Lipa, Henry Cavill, Bryce Dallas Howard and Catherine O'Hara.
00:26 It sure has a buzz building around it for months now.
00:29 But that buzz is partly because to do with the book.
00:31 Due out in just a few days, the author, Ellie Conway, is a bit of a mystery.
00:36 TikTok even has a theory that it's none other than Taylor Swift behind the work.
00:41 Chances are, though, it's mainly a marketing strategy, planned or not,
00:44 that is definitely working in the film's favour.
00:47 Argyle tells the story of a reclusive author, Ellie Conway,
00:51 who writes a best-selling espionage novel series about secret agent Argyle.
00:56 However, all is not as it seems because the plots in her books have started to mirror
01:00 the covert actions of a real-life spy organisation.
01:05 Now, from the big screen to the small screen, we've got something you won't have to wait
01:08 too much longer to watch.
01:10 Coming from the same producers as Saving Private Ryan, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks,
01:15 we've got something on Apple TV that you are sure to love.
01:18 Masters of Air is a star-studded World War II epic that follows the heroics
01:22 of the real-life US airmen of the 100th Bomb Group.
01:26 Starring Austin Butler, Barry Keoghan, Shruti Ghatwa and Callum Turner,
01:31 this nine-episode special is the companion to the 2001 TV masterpiece Band of Brothers.
01:37 If you loved that, plus, of course, Saving Private Ryan, this is definitely up your alley.
01:43 Someone who was no stranger to the small screen is RuPaul.
01:47 And while fans can definitely expect some new drag race this year,
01:51 it's actually not his TV show that has got him on this year's list.
01:56 The House of Hidden Meanings is due out in March and it's expected to be a brutally honest,
02:01 surprisingly poignant and deeply intimate memoir from RuPaul.
02:05 It follows him throughout his childhood, growing up black, poor and queer in a broken home
02:10 to discovering the power of performance, found family and self-acceptance.
02:15 If, as RuPaul says, we're all born naked and the rest is just drag,
02:20 then this is set to be RuPaul totally out of drag.
02:24 And how can it be a hot list without Taylor Swift?
02:27 Of course, she absolutely dominated 2023, but 2024, she has no signs of slowing down whatsoever.
02:34 Australian fans are particularly excited for the Eros tour, which will finally hit our shores in February.
02:40 But it's not like Swifties need any reminding of that.
02:43 Friendship, bracelet making and outfit planning are probably happening just as we speak.
02:48 As for music, however, we're due for two more re-releases,
02:51 with Reputation tipped to be the next Taylor's version, followed by Debut.
