The show is likely to give fans a behind-the-scenes experience of the WWE. 'WWE: Unreal' will have appearances from John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Rhea Ripley, CM Punk, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair, Chelsea Green, Jey Uso, Xavier Woods, and Triple H himself.

According to reports, Triple H will narrate the docuseries. Triple H is a 14-time WWE world champion who has served as WWE's Chief Content Officer since 2022. Recently, Triple H - whose real name is Paul Michael Levesque - told Entertainment Weekly: 'Our business evolves and so do the expectations of our audience. When you look at the track records of Omaha Productions and NFL Films, it felt like we had the right partners in place to pull back the curtain and showcase WWE in a brand-new way."
However, not all agrees with triple H. WWE superstar CM Punk has mixed feelings.
'I have that old-school mentality of protecting the business," Punk said. 'So the idea of letting cameras this far behind the scenes is really strange to me — even if I understand why fans want to see it."
WWE: Unreal will premiere globally on Netflix on July 29. The series is directed by Chris Weaver and produced by Omaha Productions, NFL Films, Skydance Sports, and WWE.

'Maalik' box office collections day 8: Rajkummar Rao starrer sees a steep drop; collections dip below Rs 1 cr

Rajkummar Rao 's 'Maalik' has hit a rough patch at the box office as it entered its second week. On Day 8, the film collected just Rs 60 lakhs. This marks a steep fall of over 55% compared to its Thursday earnings. 'Maalik's total domestic net collection now stands at Rs 21.79 crore, as reported by the Sacnilk website. While some drop after the first week is common, the extent of the fall has raised concerns about the film's hold in its second weekend. The national occupancy average was 12.38%,. It had a slightly better turnout during night shows at 21.74%. Strong Opening Weekend, But Will It Sustain? 'Maalik' had a promising start with Rs 14.25 crore collected in its opening weekend. The weekdays that followed saw a steady decline. But it is not an alarming one, until the second Friday's sharp drop. If Saturday and Sunday can bring even a moderate surge, the film may still find some stability going forward. Performances Keep the Buzz Alive The film is a political crime drama directed by Pulkit. The film tells the story of a small-time gangster's rise to power. Critics and audiences alike have praised the cast, especially Rajkummar Rao, whose performance has been widely appreciated. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo An execrpt from ETimes review reads, "Rajkummar Rao delivers a strong performance. He strikes a balance between being a dreaded gangster and a caring family man. Even in a brief role, Prosenjit Chatterjee delivers a fine act as the SP determined to bring Maalik down. Manushi Chhillar has limited screen time but is decent as Maalik's wife. Anshumaan Pushkar is also effective as Maalik's college friend turned trusted aide. The other supporting cast—Saurabh Shukla, Swanand Kirkire, and Saurabh Sachdeva—lend able support.." With the weekend now underway, Maalik's future at the box office hangs in the balance.

'Almost Cops' review: Familiar yet fun

Almost every film in the buddy cop genre operates at a nimble zone that makes it difficult to take it too seriously. But some films tend to be aware of this potential pitfall and lean into their tropes and come out entertaining. Gonzalo Fernandez Carmona's Dutch film Almost Cops on Netflix is a case in point. The film manages to be gleefully entertaining with an array of clever pop culture references, hilarious one-liners, and earnest performances. Unlike your regular buddy cop comedy, it does not start and end with the same two lead characters. It begins with Jandino Asporaat's Ramon experiencing a dream sequence where he serves as a security officer at a bank in Rotterdam. He talks a robber out of a heist plan while negotiating with the other, more aggressive thieves. Soon, Ramon comes back to his daily reality, his daily grind, where everybody else treats him as just another community service officer (CSO). Drug peddlers disrespect him, as do cops for failing to stop crime in the city. There are no major surprises in Almost Cops; the film is as predictable as it can get in terms of the crime thriller aspect. However, it commits itself fully to mindless, often rollicking fun. There is a hilarious reference to how Matt Damon 'needs escaping' in many of his films, including The Martian and Elysium. The joke practically writes itself: Damon in Distress. A stretch involving Ramon and his penchant for sandwiches is particularly funny because it comes soon after he fails at his job. And a chase involving go-karts is silly yet exciting at the same time. The film maintains a high level of energy throughout. And at a deeper level, it has poignant themes, such as Ramon's steadfast commitment to community service and aspirations to become a law enforcement officer, as well as Jack's realisation about where the true essence of service lies. The film also pokes fun at corruption in Dutch society. Everyone —from CSOs and CID officers to industrialists—faces constant sarcasm from people who exist below and above them in society just for being who they are. While the film does not explore these nuances deeply enough, they are interesting to look at and add some flavour to what otherwise would have been a straightforward comedy caper. Almost Cops admirably resists a tendency to fall prey to buddy cop genre trappings for a large part of its runtime. We only see the two leads address each other as 'bros' towards the end. The film manages to make us care about the characters and still keeps us entertained by leveraging the strengths of the genre. That is a job well done—well, almost.

Kirk Cousins dragged into viral affair scandal as Netflix shades Astronomer CEO with Coldplay moment

Netflix wittily entered a viral scandal involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron by using a clip from 'Quarterback' featuring Kirk Cousins (Imagn Images) Netflix just proved that even the most wholesome NFL moment isn't safe from the internet's ability to twist it into a meme. In a surprisingly savage move, the streaming giant joined in on a viral scandal involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron—using none other than Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins and his well-known love for Coldplay to stir the pot. Netflix posts innocent Coldplay clip… at the perfect moment to shade a tech CEO's rumored affair A recent Coldplay concert in Boston became the unlikely backdrop for a public firestorm after viral photos suggested Byron was getting a little too cozy with his Chief People Officer, Kristin Cabot. While social media ran wild with affair speculation, Netflix's official X (formerly Twitter) account jumped into the fray with a perfectly timed screenshot. The clip? A snippet from Season 2 of Quarterback, where Cousins fondly says, 'Coldplay [was] one of the best concerts I've been to.' Harmless on its own—until you pair it with the ongoing viral narrative surrounding Byron and Cabot. Fans instantly recognized the sly dig. 'Even Netflix is roasting these two lol,' one user wrote, while another called it 'top-tier trolling.' The post was widely interpreted as a stealthy jab, with users praising the Netflix social media team for their chef's kiss timing. Kirk Cousins caught in the crossfire, but fans defend his wholesome reputation Though Cousins had nothing to do with the tech affair drama, his name ended up dragged into the narrative simply because of his on-screen Coldplay comment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Some fans rushed to his defense, reminding everyone that Cousins is known for being a 'devout Christian and family man' with no history of off-field controversies. Ironically, Cousins has his own real-life drama brewing on the football side. After a tough 2025 NFL season where he posted 18 touchdowns and a career-worst 16 interceptions, he was benched for rookie Michael Penix Jr. Now facing a potential QB battle in Atlanta, Cousins surely didn't expect his biggest off-season headline to involve Coldplay and a corporate scandal. Still, thanks to Netflix's sly post and the power of internet timing, Kirk Cousins is once again trending—this time not for his throws, but for a viral Coldplay concert that had nothing to do with him, yet somehow made him the star.
