Linkin Park Held Back From Returning To No. 1 With New Deluxe Album
Linkin Park's From Zero returns to multiple charts in the U.K. following its deluxe reissue, and it ... More almost hits No. 1 on one list, but Bury Tomorrow wins.

Linkin Park's comeback album From Zero is a major commercial success again in the United Kingdom this week, thanks to a huge uptick in interest, which was sparked by the release of a deluxe edition of the title. The reissue has led to a growth in both streams and sales of the beloved hard rock effort.
From Zero, which originally dropped in fall 2024, currently appears on seven U.K. charts. It reenters four of them and climbs on the rest. The bestselling project nearly hits No. 1 on one tally, but is blocked from the top spot by some hometown favorites.
From Zero rockets from No. 10 to No. 2 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. Linkin Park nearly reclaims control of the genre-specific ranking, which focuses solely on the bestselling full-lengths and EPs in rock and metal, but the group misses out on doing so, as a brand new entry keeps the band from landing at No. 1.
English metalcore outfit Bury Tomorrow debuts its new release Will You Haunt Me, with That Same Patience in first place. The project becomes the group's fourth leader on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart and seventh top 10 win, which accounts for the entirety of the band's charting successes.
While From Zero doesn't reclaim the throne on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart, it has already enjoyed a hugely successful run there. The set opened at No. 1 in late November 2024 and held the top spot for eight consecutive frames. In the more than six months since its arrival, it has fallen outside the top 10 only once.
Linkin Park pushes its latest full-length back onto four tallies this week, driven by a surge in total consumption, and, seemingly, particularly in sales. The project reenters the top 10 on both the Official Album Downloads and Official Vinyl Albums rankings, landing at Nos. 7 and 8, respectively.
It also finds its way back to the Official Albums list and the Official Albums Streaming roster. While not charting as high on those rankings, From Zero comes in at Nos. 23 and 65, respectively, after not appearing on either of those rosters just a short time ago.
There are three charts where From Zero doesn't need to return, including the Official Rock & Metal Albums ranking. Linkin Park also climbs back into the top 10 on both the Official Albums Sales list (No. 6) and the Official Physical Albums roster (No. 7), jumping more than 60 spots on each.

We've Been Talking About How We're Getting The Summer Of Tom Holland In 2026. Now, It's Looking Like The Winter Of Florence Pugh
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. We've been talking about how we're getting the summer of Tom Holland, with the English-born actor set to star in Christopher Nolan's Odyssey movie and swinging back into cinemas in the upcoming Spider-Man sequel. The summer of 2026 will be huge for upcoming movies, but if you're looking ahead a few months, December is already shaping to belong entirely to someone else: Florence Pugh. Not just figuratively, either; she has two major films landing on the same weekend. Those would be the Russo brothers' Avengers: Doomsday, and Dune: Messiah, both slated for December 2026. Go ahead, let that sink in. Let's start with Doomsday, the next big swing in Marvel's Multiverse Saga. Pugh returns as Yelena Belova, the no-nonsense assassin who's gone from scene-stealing supporting role to franchise anchor. With much of the original Avengers lineup gone or rebooted, Yelena is positioned to take center stage in a way fans have been waiting for. And with Doomsday reportedly setting up the final pieces of Marvel's multiverse endgame, expect high stakes, massive cameos, and the Midsommar actress is in a full-fledged action lead capacity. She won't even have time to take off the combat boots before dropping into the sand again, because she's also reprising her role in some of the best sci-fi movies of recent memory, as Princess Irulan in Dune: Messiah, Denis Villeneuve's next chapter in the sweeping sci-fi saga. This sequel is expected to take a darker, more intimate turn as Paul Atreides' messianic rule begins to unravel. And if you've read the book, you know Irulan's role is only growing. She's no longer just window dressing in the imperial court, but a political. Two franchise juggernauts. Two wildly different roles. One actress anchoring both. That's not just a scheduling coincidence, but a flex. Studios rarely schedule two major blockbusters starring the same actor on the same opening weekend, but the Little Women star isn't your average star. She's earned a reputation for elevating every project she joins, whether it's the unsettling indie Midsommar, action-packed upcoming Marvel movie tentpoles, or the prestige ensemble of Oppenheimer. Now, she's entering rare air: a bona fide box office force and a critical powerhouse. Come next holiday season, it won't just be Christmas, it'll be Pugh Season. And like the Barbenheimer phenomenon before it, we're about to witness a cultural collision. Call it DoomsDune, Dune'sDay, Doone, whatever the name, it's the event of the season, and fans won't want to miss it. So yes, the summer of Tom Holland is happening. We'll get the suit, the quips, the billion-dollar box office, and maybe even a Spider-Verse twist or two. But when winter hits, it's Florence Pugh's turn to own the spotlight. And with Avengers: Doomsday and Dune: Messiah both set to dominate the cultural conversation, she could walk away from 2026 with not just the year's biggest hits, but its most iconic performances too. Mark your calendars! Dune: Messiah hits theaters on December 16, 2026, and just two days later, Avengers: Doomsday is coming to cinemas on the 18th. Don't miss out!

Why American celebrities ‘escaping' Trump by fleeting to Britain may be in for a big surprise
Since Trump began his second term, Britain has become a political escape hatch for American celebrities and wealthy Democrats. It's so popular that last week, the British Home Office released data showing that in the 12 months leading up to March, almost 7,000 US citizens applied to become British subjects or live here indefinitely — the highest number since such records began in 2004. A third of those applications have been received since Trump took office at the start of 2025. There are the famous emigres. Kamala Harris supporters Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi have taken up residence in the bucolic Cotswolds, selling their Montecito homes after becoming 'very disillusioned' when Trump won, according to TMZ. 'English country life' runs the caption on Ellen's latest Instagram reel showing her luxurious home and grounds, complete with chicken and gambolling rabbit. 4 Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi have left the US for the UK following Trump's return to office. Getty Images Fellow comedian Rosie O'Donnell has moved to UK-adjacent Ireland and will only 'consider coming back' when it is 'safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America,' as she said on a Tik Tok video in March. Brit Minnie Driver left LA to return to the motherland prompted by Trump's win. Others considering a move to the UK include Barbra Streisand, who has said she 'can't live in this country if [Trump] becomes president,' as well as Cher and America Ferrera. 'Girls' creator Lena Dunham — along with Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes — traded the US for London before Trump's inauguration. But the glitzy progressives falling for Britain may find they are in for a shock: This is not the liberal paradise they imagined, despite our Labour prime minister. In fact, Britain's next leader could be a lot like Donald Trump. The populist Reform party is surging in the polls, threatening to explode Britain's political landscape. It is built around Brexit architect Nigel Farage, an anti-immigration figure with similar cult-like status to Trump and the president's erstwhile close friend. Reform is no fringe party: 40% of Brits think Farage will be the next Prime Minister. 4 Rosie O'Donnell hasn't moved to Britain, but to Ireland — where she believes it will be safer for her and her gender-nonconforming child. Getty Images Trump's followers remain steadfast despite all; as the president himself noted, he could shoot someone in Times Square and 'not lose any voters.' Farage, our possible future prime minister, confers a similar blind devotion on his own party supporters. When a Reform candidate from Yorkshire, selected to run for a seat in Parliament, was revealed to have said, 'Black people should get off their lazy arses and stop acting like savages,' voters didn't care; he still came second. Last week, a frenzy erupted over a 'racist' advert for Reform which bashed the Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar by saying he will 'prioritize the Pakistani community.' Not a peep of contrition. Do those trading Trump's America for Britain fully understand what has been going on in our less glamorous areas? 4 Trump with Nigel Farage, leader of Britain's Reform Party. Getty Images This week saw a car-ramming in Liverpool, injuring scores who were out celebrating a soccer triumph. Do they know what happened last summer, following the massacre by Axel Rudakubana, the son of Sudanese immigrants, of three little girls at a Taylor Swift dance class in the peaceful northern town Southport? There were mass riots as thugs stormed mosques and lit them on fire — plus a groundswell of rage at how the Islamist ambitions and sympathies of Britain's unassimilated immigrants and asylum-seekers are covered up. From the British perspective, of course, the arrival of wealthy and famous American Dems-in-exile has shone an interesting light on our own debates about immigration. Though few admit it, least of all those in power, there are Good Migrants and there are Bad Migrants. 4 Axel Rudakubana, who killed three small girls at a Taylor Swift concert, sparked large-scale anti-Muslim riots in Britain. AP It is generally agreed now by all the parties that Something Must Be Done about the Bad Ones. In 2024, 694 boats carrying 53 illegal immigrants apiece seeking asylum arrived on British shores, costing taxpayers £6 million a day on hotel bills alone. But the good ones like Ellen with her $18 million farmhouse? We can't get enough. Ironically echoing Trump's idea of a 'gold card' for desirable immigrants, the UK's home secretary said earlier this month that Britain would be introducing 'provisions to qualify more swiftly that take account of the contribution people have made.' This should ease the way for more Ellens, Evas and Lenas. Of course, it's hardly a surprise that most people will take an American celebrity over a trafficked Syrian any day, and their arrival is certainly a bonus for us. But when they discover how far short of a liberal paradise Britain is becoming, their stays on this sceptred isle might be shorter than anticipated.

Under-the-radar delivery apps are gaining ground in the U.S. by courting Asian restaurants
NEW YORK – When Kelly Wu feels sick and wants a delivery of congee, the Chinese porridge she grew up eating, she opts for a platform many may not have heard of. The New York City resident doesn't open apps from multi-billion dollar companies like Uber Eats or DoorDash. Instead, the 22-year-old pulls up Fantuan, a growing Vancouver-based startup that focuses specifically on the ecosystem surrounding Asian cuisines. "I feel like it's just the equivalent of 'Asian' DoorDash or Uber Eats," Wu said in an interview with CNBC. Digital food ordering and delivery platforms have become ingrained in everyday American life over the past decade, with companies like Uber Eats, DoorDash and GrubHub becoming household names. But when it comes to Asian food, connoisseurs like Wu and restaurant owners are opting for smaller platforms like Fantuan or competitor HungryPanda. Fantuan's strategy looks different than that of bigger food platforms given its focus on Asian businesses, according to co-founder Yaofei Feng. The 11-year-old company sends representatives to talk to store owners in person about getting on the platform rather than trying to reach them online, Feng said. These conversations will often take place in Chinese, given that he said many of these entrepreneurs speak English as a second language. "The way we gain their trust is very unique," Feng said. Having options besides English for the app is appealing for business owners who find it easier to communicate in their first language. The app design is also more reminiscent of Chinese platforms like Alibaba than American alternatives, Feng said, which can provide a sense of familiarity. Since Fantuan first entered the U.S. in 2019, Feng said it has expanded to more than 50 cities ranging from large metropolises such as Los Angeles to college towns like Davis, Calif. The company's U.S. footprint was boosted by its acquisition of Chowbus' delivery business last year. Rather than run large advertising campaigns, Fantuan mainly spreads the word through providing sign holders at storefronts and stickers for delivery drivers. The startup has also worked with influencers on platforms like TikTok and RedNote, a popular short-form video app in China. Feng said Fantuan's main customer bases are first-generation immigrants and international students craving authentic cuisines tied to their home countries. He said the company meets with college student associations to find potential customers coming to the U.S. from Asia. But Feng said there's potential for the app to reach a wider audience as foods including bubble tea become mainstream in the U.S. The company said it saw a growth rate for gross merchandise value of more than 20% in the U.S. last year, before shooting up to 31% in the first quarter of 2025. "With the immigration and the social media, everybody loves Asian food," Feng said. "If they want authentic options, they will also use the app." Following the Chowbus acquisition, many business owners and users consider HungryPanda as the main competitor to Fantuan. Wu said she also has HungryPanda's app, but hasn't ordered on it since she first began using Fantuan, and has been pleased with the service. HungryPanda did not respond to CNBC's interview inquiry for this story. HungryPanda announced last year that it raised $55 million, which will be used in part to fuel expansion efforts in North America. When it comes to the broader food delivery app landscape, Feng said he sees the company "co-existing" alongside bigger-name companies rather than "competing." That's because the draw of Fantuan is connecting authentic – and often smaller – businesses to customers instead of trying to win over large chains that already use other platforms. "It's very hard ... long-term, to compete with the monopolies," he said. "But we want to keep our unique way." In Flushing, a neighborhood of New York City's Queens borough known for its large population of Chinese-Americans, Andrew Chau sees first-hand how the customer base has taken to Fantuan. Chau said his outpost of Yomie's Rice x Yogurt sees around 50 orders each day on the platform. By comparison, Chau said he's lucky to get one order every few days on apps like Uber Eats or DoorDash. Chau likes that the app offers users promotions and that he can communicate with customer service through WeChat, a popular messaging platform in China. He also said many restaurants nearby use the platform, as evidenced by companies having Fantuan logos around their businesses. In Flushing, "I can see lots of Fantuan logo[s]," said Chau, who owns five stores in the New York City area. "I cannot see lots of Uber Eats or DoorDash." Wu also said she sees the logo regularly around areas with high rates of Asian businesses like Flushing or Manhattan's well-known Chinatown neighborhood. She's also seen the delivery drivers out wearing merchandise for both Fantuan and HungryPanda. For Wu, the authenticity of restaurants on Fantuan is better than other more prominent food delivery platforms. She also believes that reviews on Fantuan to be more trustworthy. "I can find dishes that I can't find on American food ordering apps," Wu said. "I feel like it's definitely the way to go if I'm looking for a traditional Chinese meal, rather than using Uber Eats or DoorDash to get something like orange chicken."
