‘The Boys' S5 teaser drops at Comic-Con, teasing Homelander's chilling new order and a Supernatural reunion
Fans attending San Diego Comic-Con were treated to an exclusive first look at 'The Boys' Season 5, which promises even more of the twisted, blood-soaked chaos that has made the Prime Video series a cultural phenomenon. The teaser was unveiled at the end of the 'Gen V' Season 2 panel in Ballroom 20 — but it remains unseen by the wider world. Though the teaser was brief, it delivered a barrage of graphic superhero violence, hinting at the show's trademark blend of satire and gore. Among the standout moments: a mysterious new supe projectile-vomiting what looked like a bloody hairball onto another character, and a grisly explosion inside a bathroom stall. A surprise highlight for fans of 'Supernatural' came in the form of a reunion — Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins, long associated with the CW show, appeared together in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment. Their roles remain under wraps, but their presence adds to the growing list of 'Supernatural' alumni brought into 'The Boys' by creator Eric Kripke, including Jensen Ackles and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The most chilling moment, however, belonged to Antony Starr's Homelander, now effectively ruling from behind the scenes of the White House. In the teaser, he proclaims, 'This is a safer, more god-fearing nation,' a declaration that underscores the dystopian turn America has taken under his shadow rule following the Season 4 finale. The teaser also confirmed further crossover between 'The Boys' and its spin-off 'Gen V', with London Thor's Jordan Li making an appearance. Several returning cast members were glimpsed, along with new additions like Daveed Diggs and Paul Reiser. Season 5, the show's final instalment, is slated for release in 2026.

Mahindra Racing's Kush Maini takes cricket quiz, reveals his IPL team allegiance
Kush Maini (Image credit: Instagram) Mahindra Racing's Indian Formula 2 champion Kush Maini is not just an impressive presence on the track but also well-versed in his country's favourite sport — cricket. The racer from Bengaluru recently took a cricket quiz and nearly scored a perfect 10/10, answering almost every question with precision. He is the only Indian to have won a Formula 2 race in Monaco and recently delivered an impressive performance at the Berlin Rookie Test, finishing among the top three in both sessions. Kush Maini is a pro when it comes to cricket knowledge A video of Kush Maini's cricket quiz shows him getting momentarily confused with the first question, though he gave the correct answer initially. When asked about the number of players in a cricket team, he initially said 'eleven' but changed it to 'twelve' after counting the number of openers and following players. After that brief hiccup, Maini breezed through the quiz like a pro. He correctly answered questions about the criteria for a four and a six, and explained terms like LBW, duck, and clean bowled. He also knew the number of overs bowled in T20, One-Day, and Test matches. When asked which team Virat Kohli represents in the IPL, Maini confidently replied, 'RCB… that's me, can't get that wrong.' He also tackled a question about the British singer who joked about not understanding cricket despite coming from the country that invented it. Maini answered 'Ed Sheeran' — and was pleasantly surprised to learn he was right. He also knew that David Beckham was the English footballer who once played a friendly match with Sachin Tendulkar. Watch Kush Maini's candid video here . Who is Kush Maini? Kush Maini moved to England at the age of 13–14 to pursue racing. Originally from Bengaluru, he now spends more time abroad than in India. He became the first Indian to win the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix in Formula 2 earlier this year. He recently showcased his racing talent during the Berlin Rookie Test, representing Mahindra Racing. He finished second in the morning session and third in the afternoon. Speaking after the test, he said, 'In the morning, we focused on 350kW runs, and in the afternoon, more on race runs. Whatever the run, we were always in the top three and really fast, so a good step was made. Whenever I get into this car, I leave with a smile on my face.
