Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez Confirm Their Romance with a Passionate Kiss in L.A.
Jessica Alba's new romance is heating up!
On Friday, July 25, the actress and Honest Company co-founder, 44, was spotted kissing Danny Ramirez in Los Angeles.
Photos from the PDA-filled outing show the pair with their arms wrapped around each other as they shared a smooch near a parked car.
The actors dressed casually for the outing, both wearing sneakers, gray sweatpants and baseball caps. Ramirez, 32, wore a black T-shirt and glasses, while Alba layered a black jacket over a crop top, and carried a black handbag.
Just two days earlier, on July 23, the Trigger Warning actress and Captain America: Brave New World star were photographed smiling inside a car together, following a dinner outing in L.A.
A source told PEOPLE earlier this month that things are "very new" between the pair. The insider also said of Alba and Ramirez, "They're having a good time together."
The duo was previously spotted returning from a romantic getaway in Mexico. Photos obtained at the time by TMZ showed Alba boarding a flight from Cancún with Ramirez, after the pair spent time in the area together.
Around the same time, a source told PEOPLE that Alba has 'been getting a lot of attention since the divorce" and is "flattered."

Alba's romance with Ramirez comes months after she filed for divorce from Cash Warren in February, citing irreconcilable differences. She filed for joint custody of their three children — Honor, 17, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7 — and requested that her legal name be restored to Jessica Marie Alba.
The actress first met Warren, a film producer, in 2004, and they married on May 19, 2008. Alba listed their date of separation as Dec. 27, 2024, in the divorce filing.
Alba first broke her silence about her split from Warren in January, when she emphasized in a statement that, though it was time for them to "embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals," their kids remain the couple's 'highest priority.'

SMALLVILLE Revival Update From Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum Dashes Hopes of a Return — GeekTyrant
It's a bittersweet summer for Superman fans. While the Man of Steel is thriving on the big screen, fans of Smallville just got a tough update from the show's stars that dims the already-flickering hopes for a reboot. Tom Welling recently appeared on Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum, his third visit to the podcast, and naturally, the subject of Smallville came up. The duo, who also co-host the Talkville rewatch podcast, didn't sugarcoat things when it came to the possibility of returning to their iconic roles as Clark Kent and Lex Luthor. Rosenbaum asked the question fans have been wondering for years: 'Is it too far-fetched that Al [Gough] and Miles [Millar] will ever say, 'Let's do a one episode thing, or a movie or something?'' Welling responded with a smile, but not the kind that brings good news. 'I'm smiling and saying it probably will never happen,' he said. 'But, like, I love the idea.' That simple sentence crushed the hearts of many still holding out hope. Especially since the fanbase remains incredibly active, faithfully tuning into Talkville , attending themed conventions, and even taking part in Smallville cruises. For years, Welling and Rosenbaum have pitched the idea of an animated sequel series, but Warner Bros.' shifting strategy under James Gunn's DCU leadership seems to have shelved those dreams. Even Rosenbaum, one of the loudest champions for a reboot, had to concede. 'It just doesn't seem like our show's the type of show that that would have [one],' he admitted. The last real moment of revival came in 2019 during the CW's Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, where Welling returned as Clark Kent alongside Erica Durance's Lois Lane. That brief cameo revealed Clark had given up his powers to raise a family was an unexpected but fitting close for his version of the character. In truth, any Smallville continuation would simply be a Superman series, and Warner Bros. already has that lane covered. The recent conclusion of Superman & Lois and the successful launch of James Gunn's Superman film have likely pushed Welling's return even further out of reach. Rosenbaum has a small role in Gunn's Superman film, and the two are close friends. So, there's a chance, however slim, that Welling or other Smallville alumni could find their way into the DCU in new ways. After all, Smallville itself once welcomed Superman icons like Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder. David Corenswet, the new Superman, even said Welling was 'his Superman' growing up. So while a full-fledged Smallville reboot may never fly, the legacy of the series is alive and well, and might still find a way to soar within the modern DC Universe.

Matt Shakman Thinks What Was Cut From ‘Fantastic Four' Was for the ‘Greater Good'
It's been just shy of a week since Marvel's latest installment in its ever-expanding cinematic universe, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, released in theaters. While much of the hubbub about the film is generally favorable, verging on 'we're so back,' some online fans lamented over the movie seemingly leaving a lot of content from its trailer on the cutting room floor for their liking. Now, director Matt Shakman has come forward to discuss the rigorous editing process behind the Marvel film. In an interview with Collider, Shakman was asked if First Steps, which clocks in at a little under two hours, initially had a longer cut of the film. To ensure everything happens in a sequential manner that will satisfy folks, the film, as with most modern blockbusters, has its fair share of deleted scenes. While not unique to the genre, Fantastic Four became a focal point to fans online who've compiled moments from First Steps trailers that didn't make it to the final cut, giving birth to rumors that the film was purportedly missing at least 30 minutes of content. While Shakman admits that making the film was tricky, forgoing a traditional origin story, but giving viewers enough pieces of Marvel's First Family to understand its quartet and tell a new story with the likes of new cataclysmic threats in the Silver Surfer and Galactus, it's still released as he wanted it to. 'By the time you end up cutting it, you're doing it for a reason,' Shakman told Collider. 'You're looking at the larger picture, and you're able to make those cuts, because they make sense. And, ultimately, you know it's for the greater good. It's always, in the post process, hard to—you know, the forest and the trees, right? You have to constantly think about the bigger picture. This cast is amazing, and all of the supporting cast is amazing, and the work of the design team, and cinematography, these are tons of great scenes that would be wonderful to have in the film, but ultimately, just didn't contribute to the best possible narrative.' As GamesRadar+ notes, Shakman added that Marvel gave him freedom to make the movie without the rumored executive meddling fans tend to point a finger at whenever they need to explain why it might feel off (especially so in Marvel's case, as the studio has become infamously known for its messy, fix-it-in-post process in recent years). 'No, [there] was never anything I had to fight for. That's a great thing about Marvel. I feel like we're all making the same movie, working really hard to tell the same story. It was clear what we were trying to tell from the beginning,' Shakman said. Ahead of his Collider interview, it was already made public that iconic actor John Malkovich had all of his scenes as the Fantastic Four's longtime rival, Red Ghost, cut from the film. Speaking with Variety, Shakman lamented Malkovich's absence in the movie, which became more apparent to fans because he was showcased in the movie's trailers. As with other elements cut from First Steps, Red Ghost's ghosting of the film boiled down to the movie already having too many spinning plates, including a world-eating villain, a surfing harbinger, legacy cameos, a tangle with Mole Man, and a superpowered baby, to make room for Red Ghost. 'It was heartbreaking not to include him in the final version of the movie because he's one of my very favorite humans and one of my biggest inspirations,' Shakman told Variety. 'As a person who walks the line between theater and film and television, there's no one who is more inspiring than the founder of Steppenwolf Theater Company. What he's done on stage as an actor and what he's done as a director in theater as well as in film, and as just a film actor of incredible ability—I was honored he came to play.' Fantastic Four is playing in theaters. Want more io9 news?

‘Love Island' Stars JaNa Craig And Kenny Rodriguez Split: What We Know
JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez, who placed third on 'Love Island USA' last summer and now star on spinoff 'Beyond the Villa,' announced their split Tuesday in a series of heated Instagram posts, with Craig blasting her now-ex-boyfriend as a "manipulative liar.'

More Christopher Polk/Penske Media via Getty Images) Penske Media via Getty Images Fans noticed over the weekend Craig and some of her 'Love Island' co-stars had unfollowed Rodriguez on Instagram, sparking theories the pair may have split. Craig posted an Instagram story Tuesday evening confirming the breakup and stating the fan theories do not match 'how terrible, disgusting and disappointing' their split was, stating Rodriguez is not who she thought he was. Rodriguez posted his own statement on Instagram shortly after, calling the past few days 'incredibly difficult' while wishing Craig happiness and 'no ill will.' Craig quickly responded to Rodriguez in another Instagram story, calling him a 'manipulative liar' and accusing him of not taking accountability, adding: 'My first statement was me being nice. Do not piss me off.' Rodriguez has not publicly responded to Craig since her follow-up statement. Neither Rodriguez nor Craig have specified a reason for the split, but Craig reposted fellow 'Love Island USA' contestant Leah Kateb's story that accused Rodriguez of being 'racist, clout/money hungry and a scammer since day 1' (Rodriguez has not responded to Kateb's accusation). Craig and Rodriguez were spotted together and had been making social media posts featuring one another as recently as last weekend. They attended a party hosted by social media celebrity David Dobrik on Saturday, multiple outlets reported, and Vulture reported Rodriguez was posting Snapchat stories of the two of them together throughout the night. Rodriguez also posted a TikTok video of the two at a Brazilian restaurant over the weekend. Fans noticed Sunday that Craig and some of her 'Love Island' co-stars, including Serena Page and Leah Kateb, had unfollowed Rodriguez on Instagram. TMZ reported on Sunday Rodriguez and Craig had split, citing unnamed sources. What Else Do We Know About The Breakup? Multiple outlets reported Charmane Smith, a friend of Craig, made and deleted a post to her Instagram story in which she urged women to go through their partner's phones. 'Search keywords like 'I don't like black women, I thought I would get more money from this, I'm faking this relationship, going on the show would be for clout,'' Smith's story said, according to Us Weekly, which said it viewed the story prior to its deletion. Neither Craig nor Rodriguez have addressed Smith's alleged claims, though Smith's post quickly went viral online. Yes, Craig and Rodriguez still star on 'Love Island: Beyond the Villa,' which began airing July 13 and will continue throughout the summer. 'Beyond the Villa' stars former cast members from season six of 'Love Island USA' as they adjust to their relationships in Los Angeles. The series airs Thursdays on Peacock. The upcoming July 31 episode will follow Craig and Rodriguez as they 'take in a foster dog as a practice run for parenthood,' according to TV Guide, and future episodes will include the couple struggling with 'different opinions about living together' and the 'fallout' from their anniversary dinner. Key Background Craig and Rodriguez met on the sixth season of 'Love Island USA,' which aired in the summer of 2024 and is considered the breakout season of the American franchise, which is based on the British reality dating show. Craig was one of the original islanders who entered the villa on day one, whereas Rodriguez was a 'bombshell' who joined the show on day 13. The two began a relationship shortly after Rodriguez's entrance, though they faced a rift while Rodriguez explored a relationship with another contestant. Craig and Rodriguez made it to the finale and placed third following a fan vote. After the show, Rodriguez and Craig became active on social media, where they have millions of followers and would frequently post content about their relationship. After 'Love Island USA' ended, Craig and Rodriguez continued a long-distance relationship and made several public appearances, including at the 'Gladiator II' premiere in Tokyo in November and the American Music Awards and Coachella in the spring. Tangent The social media storm over Craig and Rodriguez's breakup comes weeks after season seven of 'Love Island USA' concluded, which garnered series high viewership while facing several controversies, resulting in producers booting two contestants from the show. In the second episode, contestant Yulissa Escobar departed the show after a podcast episode resurfaced in which she used the N-word. Escobar apologized on social media following her exit, though she decried online bullying and said some viewers have made it their 'mission to break people down, not just me, but everyone who stepped into that villa.' Weeks later, contestant Cierra Ortega was removed from the show after an Instagram story she had posted resurfaced in which she used a slur for Chinese people to refer to her eyes after receiving a Botox brow lift procedure. Days after her exit, Ortega posted a video to her Instagram telling viewers she is 'deeply, truly, honestly so sorry' and that she had 'no idea' the word was a slur. Escobar and Ortega have both said they will not be at the season seven reunion, which will air Aug. 25 on Peacock.
