Lady Gaga to guest star in second season of 'Wednesday'
There's great news for fans of Lady Gaga and the show Wednesday.
The pop queen is all set to be seen in the second season as a guest star, People magazine reported.
At Netflix's Tudum 2025 live event last week, the streaming giant unveiled the first six minutes of the show's highly anticipated second season.
After a nearly three-year wait, fans finally got to see what kind of spooky shenanigans Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) gets up to this season.
The footage begins with Wednesday tied up in a serial killer's basement -- "who said nightmares don't come true?" -- surrounded by life-size dolls. "He's under the delusion that I'm his next victim," she says. "I'll let him cherish that notion while I explain my predicament."
A flashback from six weeks earlier then takes place, showing Wednesday spending her summer vacation doing what any normal teen would be doing: mastering her psychic ability.
Back on stage at Tudum, the Wednesday cast revealed that Lady Gaga will be joining season 2 in a guest starring role. The details regarding her character were not disclosed.
Interestingly, Gaga performed at the event, delivering a show-stopping performance, including Bloody Mary as well as her hit song Abracadabra.
Gaga stepped out from a vertical coffin amid a sea of background dancers dressed in the vein of Gomez Addams (Luis Guzman), singing track Zombieboy off of her recently released Mayhem, Deadline reported.
Part 1 of the hit series' second season will debut August 6, with Part 2 following September 3.

'King of the Hill' voice actor Jonathan Joss dies in shooting
King of the Hill voice actor Jonathan Joss has died at the age of 59. According to San Antonio police, Joss died in a shooting last week, Variety reported. San Antonio officers were dispatched to a shooting in progress at a home on Sunday night around 7 p.m. When they arrived at the scene, they "found Joss near the road after he was shot multiple times."

The shooter fled in a vehicle but was detained by officers a block away and booked for murder. Joss voiced John Redcorn from Season 2 through Season 13 of King of the Hill and already recorded lines for the upcoming revival of the popular animated series.

Materialists: Is The Golden Age Of Rom-Coms Officially Back ?
Materialists arrives in cinemas on June 13, championing the age-old charm of an irresistible rom-com, but did we ever really fall out of love with them? For a (long) while, it felt like rom-coms were, well… on life support (or to be honest almost non-existent). We some how slipped into an era of superhero showdowns, dystopian dramas, and movies with enough CGI to make anyone's head spin. But where are the messy love triangles, the awkward meet-cutes, the breathless kisses in the rain, that we all once (and to be honest, still) use to devour with a side of Ben & Jerry's in hand. Maybe that's part of why dating and romance seem different these days. When those stories stopped being shown on screen, it was like we lost a little bit of the magic. Or maybe it's the other way around—maybe the way we date now made those kinds of movies feel outdated. Either way, the late '90s-early 2000s were the golden age of romantic comedies, and it feels like something is missing from our box office billing. Granted, they weren't always the most sophisticated ouevres de cinema. They didn't have fancy special effects or deep, complex plots. But that was part of their charm. Back then, life was simpler (though still plenty chaotic) and those films captured that messiness with panache. Without all the social media hype and endless marketing we have today, those straightforward movies about life and love still found a way to connect with people. They felt personal, they felt real. And even now, the old rom-coms are the ones we go back to watch over and over again. When Harry Met Sally, Pretty Women, How To Lose a Guy In 10 Days, and many more. These movies are comforting, cosy, and timeless. These days, it feels like a lot of movies are made just to be watched once, created to showcase a production's digital prowess on the big screen or simply streamed on your phone screen, to then forget about entirely. But those classic rom-coms? They're the kind of movies you can watch ten times, a hundred times, and still fall in love, every single time. View this post on Instagram A post shared by A24 (@a24) Perhaps though, there is hope. Materialist s, starring Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal is set to be released on June 13, and just from the trailer, people are already excited. It has that same rom-com energy—tricky love triangle, the girl next door, and all the clichés we secretly love (and miss). Even though the movie isn't out yet, social media is already buzzing. It's a reminder that people still want those kinds of stories. The ones with charm, humour, a little drama, and a lot of heart. Maybe we got too caught up in big-budget superhero movies and high-concept fantasies and forgot how much we love the simple, sweet familiarity of romantic comedies. The truth is, no amount of flashy effects or marketing can replace a good story with relatable characters and emotions. And if the excitement around this new movie is anything to go by, it seems like rom-coms might be making a comeback. Maybe love on screen—and in life—isn't dead after all.

Julie Bowen, star of 'Modern Family', didn't expect to be in 'Happy Gilmore 2'
Happy Gilmore 2 is on its way out, nearly 30 years after the first film released. Julie Bowen, who played Virginia Venit in the original, will return—but she admits she didn't think she would be part of it. Bowen said that when she first heard about the sequel, she assumed she wouldn't be involved, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "I thought, 'Well I won't be in it.'" "And that was OK -- it was like Virginia Venit, it's been 30 years...," she added. "As a matter of fact my children told me, before I was even told officially that there was a Happy Gilmore sequel, my now 18-year-old said, 'Mom, I hear they're doing a sequel and he's with Sydney Sweeney as a cart girl,'" she added. The new film, streaming July on Netflix, will include several fresh faces. Among them are Bad Bunny, Margaret Qualley, Benny Safdie, Travis Kelce, Kym Whitley, and Eminem. Bowen, a self-described Bad Bunny fan, joked about feeling starstruck on set. "Seeing Bad Bunny on set I was just like, 'Oh, I can't actually look you in the eye, I'm going to have to walk away,' and I did. I think he was offended and I had to circle back and now I made it worse," she teased. "I'm the kind of person who doesn't want to meet her heroes because I think I'm just going to be a jackass," he added. Happy Gimore 2 will stream on July 25 on Netflix.
