Microsoft Surface Go 2, Surface Earbuds, Surface Headphones 2 now available in Canada

Some of the recently announced Microsoft Surface products have made their way to Canada and are now available. The 2-in-1 Surface Go 2 has a starting price of $529. If you thought that it comes with the Go Type Cover, unfortunately, you'll have to shell out an extra $169.99 for that. It comes in Ice Blue, Poppy Red, Platinum, and Black. You will also need to buy other accessories like the Surface Pen or Mobile Mouse separately. But if you have the Go Type Cover of the original Surface Go, then that should still work fine with the new device.

After a bit of a wait, the Surface Earbuds are also now available locally. Its starting price is $259.99. Now, if you want the new Surface Headphones 2, it comes with a starting price of $349.99. It's available in the new Matte Black.

Reese Witherspoon takes us back to simpler times with a new deal she's signed with Netflix. The actress has signed on to star in two upcoming romantic comedies that will be produced by her production company, Hello Sunshine. The first film is entitled Your Place or Mine, which has a script written by Aline Brosh McKenna. McKenna will make her directorial debut with the film. And it is about "two long-distance best friends who change each other's lives when one decides to pursue a lifelong dream and the other volunteers to keep an eye on the friend's teenage son."

The second film is entitled The Cactus, and it's based on a novel with the same name by Sarah Haywood. It was one of Witherspoon's "Hello Sunshine Book Club picks" in 2018. And it tells the story of "a 45-year-old woman who falls unexpectedly pregnant, leading her on an unconventional journey toward love, family, and learning to embrace the unexpected." There is no writer or director attached to the film yet. We don't have release dates as well, given COVID-19 pandemic, it might be a while until we get that information.

Temuera Morrison goes from playing the famed bounty hunter's father in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones to being the said bounty hunter in the upcoming season of Disney+'s The Mandalorian. The Hollywood Reporter cites sources that say Morrison will play Boba Fett, who first appeared on the big screen in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and then seemingly died in the last film of the original trilogy, Return of the Jedi. 

Boba Fett will reportedly only have a small role in the second season. His appearance was teased in "The Gunslinger" episode of season one, where his trademark spurs were seen approaching the apparently lifeless body of Ming-Na Wen's character Fennec Shand. If his appearance happens, we aren't sure yet what will happen. The wait is also a bit long as the second season is slated to arrive on Disney+ in October.
