Phila Lorn, mastermind behind one of Philadelphia's hottest restaurants, brings family story into spotlight
He's the mastermind behind one of Philadelphia's hottest restaurants. Now, Phila Lorn, the owner of Mawn in South Philadelphia, is being recognized with one of the highest honors in the culinary world: the James Beard Emerging Chef Award. In the heart of the historic Italian Market, Mawn stands out not just for its bold Southeast Asian flavors but for its fearless approach. "When we say no rule, we really mean we make whatever we want," Lorn said. "There's Cambodian food, Vietnamese food, some things from Burma, Thailand." For Lorn, it's deeply personal. The South Philly native, named after his hometown, says his cooking reflects both his upbringing and the sacrifices of his parents, refugees from Cambodia who arrived in the U.S. after surviving war and genocide. "Philly is my city. I was named after the city. I love Philadelphia, the flaws and all," Lorn said. "My parents worked a lot, but the block raised me. Growing up in South Philly. The government funded us with some food, and the food was never good. I realized at an early age that I could make things better from bad things." After two decades in the restaurant industry, Lorn and his wife Rachel opened Mawn, infusing every dish with heritage, heart and hustle. This month, the James Beard Foundation recognized his work, naming him Emerging Chef at a ceremony in Chicago. It's a moment, Lorn says, that goes beyond personal success. "It represents growth and progression of my people, of the community," he said. "And I hope that it can show other people that we can do anything." But more than awards, Lorn says his mission is simple: make people feel something when they eat. "To know that you're being taken care of. To know that you're full and you're happy," he said. "I feel like that's in my blood." From a house on 7th and Jackson streets to one of the country's most celebrated chefs, Lorn is not just feeding Philly. He's honoring it.

James Wan Knows You're Dying for Details About That R-Rated ‘M3GAN' Sexbot Spin-Off
Everyone's favorite kill-crazy toy not named Chucky is back in theaters June 27, and if M3GAN 2.0 captures audiences like the 2023 original did, a third film seems all but guaranteed. But before a trilogy might happen, another film in M3GAN's universe will arrive: SOULM8TE, the previously announced R-rated spin-off that will examine the dangers of AI from a more grown-up perspective. In new interviews, producer James Wan and M3GAN star Allison Williams (an executive producer on SOULM8TE) spilled a few beans on what to expect. Both Wan and Williams told Entertainment Weekly that SOULM8TE came from the inevitable questions raised by a world with the means to create an eerily lifelike AI doll. 'We will give you a different person and a different story and an R-rated world to do this in. Let M3GAN be M3GAN, and leave her out of this completely,' Williams said. 'It felt irresistible to then say, if a M3GAN existed in our world, someone would take that tech and put it in the form of a female-bodied person whose sole purpose on the planet is to pleasure a person. We extrapolate from there.' Wan said SOULM8TE is 'basically set in the same AI world but seen through a more grown-up perspective, one that embraces all the great erotic thrillers from the '90s. It's like Fatal Attraction but with robots.' There will be humor baked in, but not on the level of 'sassiness' as what the M3GAN films bring to the table. Look for SOULM8TE—directed by Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) and starring Evil Dead Rise's Lily Sullivan as the terrifying AI companion—to spice up theaters January 2, 2026. Want more io9 news?

‘F1 the Movie' Review: Brad Pitt's Unlikely Underdog
The problem with making an underdog sports movie that stars Brad Pitt is . . . Brad Pitt. Though taunted as 'elderly' by a younger Formula One driver in 'F1 the Movie,' his character still looks like Brad Pitt. 'That's a handsome man right there!' exclaims the mother of the junior competitor, who seethes as the audience laughs. You'd probably have to remove a limb or two from Brad Pitt's Sonny Hayes to make it look like anyone but Brad Pitt has a chance to be the conquering hero here. Which is fine. 'F1' is a fun, exciting, predictable popcorn picture so formulaic it even contains a reference to formula in its title. One of its producers is Mr. Pitt; another is Jerry Bruckheimer, who had one of his first huge hits with 'Top Gun.' Following the even bigger success three years ago of 'Top Gun: Maverick,' the assignment this time is pretty clear: Give Mr. Pitt his own 'Top Gun.' Cocky guy, cute girl, devil-may-care attitude, awesome machines, authority figures yelling, more or less, 'You can't do that, you rule-breaking rascal!'—it's all here, ably directed by 'Maverick' helmer Joseph Kosinski, who also serves as producer and gets story credit alongside the film's screenwriter, Ehren Kruger.
