'It's All Happening!' New 'Twisted Metal' Season 2 Trailer Brings the Chaos
Peacock has just released a new, much longer trailer for Twisted Metal Season 2, and it basically looks like the video game has fully come to life. Check it out below.
Set to the 2001 Ludacris track "Move B**ch," the new trailer is frenetic, action-packed, and refreshingly funny.
Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz are back as John Doe and Quiet, partners and drivers in a dystopian world, hoping to bring freedom to everyone. If they win the tournament, the mysterious Calypso (Anthony Carrigan) promises to grant one wish.
How this will happen or if the tournament can actually be won, remains to be seen. Appropriately, the trailer is filled with the raw vehicular carnage that fans have come to expect from the franchise. The trailer also has a great deal of humor, and maybe hints at a bit of romance between John and Quiet.
Here's the synopsis from Peacock:
"Following the revelations in the season one finale, John and Quiet find themselves entering the deadly TWISTED METAL tournament, a sinister demolition derby hosted by a mysterious man known as Calypso. As they try to survive an onslaught of dangerous new foes and familiar faces alike, including the murderous clown Sweet Tooth, things get complicated for John when he reunites with his long-lost sister, the vigilante Dollface."'It's All Happening!'

WWE SummerSlam 2025 Full Card, Date Time And Watch Info - Nights 1 & 2
As we head into the final episode of SmackDown before the two-day SummerSlam extravaganza, there appear to be six matches set per night. Here are the matches, what to expect, as well as viewing information for both SummerSlam 2025 – Night 1 - August 2 at 7pm ET on Peacock World Heavyweight Championship Gunther (c) vs. CM Punk This seems like a great spot for Punk to win his world title. However, I do envision his wife AJ Lee returning to WWE sometime soon. I'm not sure when that will happen, but I'd be shocked if she isn't a part of a major angle teaming her with Punk against Seth Rollins and his real-life wife Becky Lynch. As it is, this is Gunther's second reign as the World Heavyweight Champion and he doesn't have much else to prove at this point. I wouldn't be surprised to see him turn face at some point over the next Women's Championship Tiffany Stratton (c) vs. Jade Cargill I'm picking Cargill to go over and win her first world title. I also expect Bianca Belair to return to action either on SmackDown or at SummerSlam. No matter when she returns, the potential Bianca-Jade feud is likely coming late in 2025 or early in 2026. Stratton's title reign has been mid and it's time to spice up the scene around the Orton & Jelly Roll vs. Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul I almost always hate the celebrity match, but there have been a few exceptions. Just about every match Logan Paul has been in has been strong, but we're doubling up here by adding Jelly Roll. I have all the respect in the world for the work it appears Jelly is putting in, and I acknowledge how good his mic work has been during the build. That said, there's a lot of work to be done if anyone is going to make him look good in the ring. Perhaps there will be a massive storyline shift, like an Orton heel turn that adds to the show. That might be quite the Women's Tag Team Championships The Judgment Day (Raquel Rodriguez & Roxanne Perez) (c) vs. Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair I fully expect to see Bliss and Flair win. Teaming with Bliss has put Flair over with the fans again, and she deserves it after a long rehab for her injured knee. For my money, she's still the greatest women's wrestler of all time, but Becky Lynch has dramatically closed that Reigns & Jey Uso vs. Bron Breakker & Bronson Reed Some are predicting a Jey Uso heel turn here. Perhaps, but there won't be two huge heel turns on the same day at SummerSlam. And I'd prefer to see Orton flip at this point. As it is, I'm excited to see what kind of show these four men put on, as it is my favorite for match of the night on the first day of Zayn vs. Karrion Kross This could be a huge match for both men. Kross needs something big and memorable in this spot. WWE has placed him in another PLE and he needs an in-ring moment that will make re-signing him a SummerSlam 2025 – Night 2 - August 3 at 7pm ET on Peacock Undisputed WWE Championship – Street Fight John Cena (c) vs. Cody Rhodes There is no doubt in my mind this will be one of the more memorable matches from Cena's farewell tour. It seems like a match that Rhodes could win, but I almost think it would be better if Rhodes' next title run comes as a heel. In any case, this one is going to be special. Cena's character is beginning to soften and it's been a pleasure to watch the World Championship – Triple Threat Naomi (c) vs. Iyo Sky vs. Rhea Ripley The pressure is on Naomi in this one. It's not about defending the title. The pressure comes from the resurgent veteran being faced with the task of helping Iyo and Rhea deliver a match as good or better than the one the latter two had with Bianca Belair at WrestleMania. If they bring it similarly, we could be looking at another Intercontinental Championship Becky Lynch (c) vs. Lyra Valkyria Becky has pulled more out of Lyra than I thought she was ready to deliver at this stage of her career. However, I don't know if it is time for Lyra to regain her title. The women's IC belt still needs to be put over a bit more, and Becky is the best person for that task. I'm hoping they have an excellent match that Becky still States Championship – Steel Cage Match Solo Sikoa (c) vs. Jacob Fatu I expect this match to be physical but slow-paced. The interference is going to come in some way, but it'll be interesting to see if anyone besides Jimmy comes to Jacob's aid when the numbers game swings in Solo's Championship Dominik Mysterio (c) vs. AJ Styles If Dom is going to spend more time with AAA, it would make sense for him to drop the title. That said, Styles doesn't need it. He's already been the IC Champion in his career. As his career winds down, the only thing that really makes sense is a World Heavyweight Championship run. That's not what this is, so I'm a little stumped when it comes to predicting the end of this Tag Team Championship – TLC Match Wyatt Sicks (c) vs. #DIY vs. Street Profits vs. Fraxiom vs. Motor City Machine Guns vs. Andrade & Rey Fenix It's a tag team match and those haven't seen a bunch of love of late in WWE. However, the amount of athleticism and absolute chaos that is possible in this match makes it one of the ones I'm most looking forward to this weekend. Andrade and Rey Fenix or Fraxiom would make great champions. Everyone else in the match has already had their time as champions.

When is the 'Love Island USA' Season 7 reunion? Date, hosts, where to watch
The drama from the "Love Island USA" Season 7 cast didn't stop when the islanders walked out of the villa. Fans have been keeping up with their favorite contestants through post-show interviews, social media posts, and strategic brand deals. While some have been more active online, others have stayed under the radar. However, similar to Season 6, the cast members will be able to appear on our television screens and share their experience, address conflicts, and lay rumors to rest at their reunion, slated to air in late August. Here's what we know about the upcoming reunion. When is the 'Love Island USA' Season 7 reunion? The "Love Island USA" Season 7 reunion is scheduled for Aug. 25 at 9 p.m. ET on Peacock. It will be spearheaded by official host Ariana Madix, who will be joined by longtime television host Andy Cohen. The two will ask the contestants everything fans want to know. "I have great love for Olandria and Amaya Papaya. I think Nic seems really sweet. I think there are a lot of questions for Ace. I think a lot to talk about with her," Cohen told Vulture at a recent awards event. "I'm so grateful that Ariana is allowing me to co-host this," he continued. More 'Love Island USA' drama "Love Island USA" Season 6 and "Love Island: Beyond the Villa" star JaNa Craig made headlines this week after breaking up with fellow islander Kenny Rodriguez. The timeline became flooded with speculation about their split. Craig informed fans that she had seen "all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting, and disappointing it truly is" in a July 28 Instagram story. Rodriguez later replied via a social media post saying: "I'll always be grateful for the time we shared and the memories we created. I release this chapter with no ill will, only a hope that JaNa's path forward brings her nothing but happiness." Later, other popular members from Season 6 came to her defense and unfollowed Rodriguez on Instagram. They accused him of being racist and chasing clout.

Ice-T sparks concern with 'Law & Order: SVU' injury gag
Ice-T may be in need of an ice pack, or at least his TV counterpart Detective Fin does. The Grammy-winning rapper and actor, who stars as Odafin Tutuola on "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," teased his return to the long-running crime drama in a playful Instagram post on July 31. Ice-T, who joined the iconic NBC series in 2000, shared a photo of his character sporting a gnarly black eye and cut lip. "Back filming SVU and the first scene I shoot…." Ice-T wrote in the post's caption, using an expletive before quickly reassuring fans, "It's in the script." Viewers won't have to wait long to see what crime-fighting adventures Det. Fin and the rest of the "SVU" gang, which includes show leads Mariska Hargitay and Christopher Meloni, have been up to in the streets of New York City. Season 27 of "SVU" is expected to launch on Sept. 25 alongside the Season 25 premiere of flagship series "Law & Order," according to the official NBC website. New episodes will air on Thursdays and be available to stream on Peacock the following day. During an October 2024 interview with The Guardian, Ice-T, who initially made a name for himself in the rap scene of the late 1980s and early '90s, reflected on his unlikely "Law & Order" stint after appearing in crime dramas such as "New Jack City," "Mean Guns" and "Sonic Impact." "They called me to do four episodes, and it just kept on giving, 25 years later," Ice-T, 67, told the British outlet. "Hip-hop was doing this paradigm shift away from acts like me, Public Enemy and Ice Cube into this weird other world where I wouldn't have survived." He added, "So, maybe it was like a lifeboat pulling up next to me. Like, OK: Time for you to change your main hustle. It's been a good ride, and it keeps me contained — when you're a musician and only a musician, you got a lot of free time, and that free time can get you in trouble." Ice-T and Pink Floyd: Rapper says band gave rare approval for 'Comfortably Numb' sample Ice-T's black eye photo prompts playful concern on social media In the comments section, Ice-T's realistic "SVU" make-up for his character's injury had some of the rapper-actor's famous peers reaching for their own emergency alert.

"I ain't about to post what went through my mind. 🤦🏾 Glad it's make-up though. 😂😂😂" 'Law & Order: SVU': These 2 cast members won't be back next season "Had me worried for a second — excellent work by the makeup team," Alycia Miller wrote. "I am glad it's just for SVU! ❤️" "Was getting ready to launch missiles..🫡," King T wrote, while Edwin Robinson II added, "I was about to send the prayer angels down… 😂😂😂"
