Apple Vibrates iPhones Everywhere With Wild New 'Haptic' Movie Trailer
The rip-roaring new racing film F1: The Movie is blasting into theaters on June 27, but ahead of that, Apple has just released a new kind of movie trailer that makes a strong argument for another sensory dimension of cinema. If you have an Apple iOS device (like an iPhone or certain iPads) you can, as of right now, watch and feel the new "haptic" trailer for F1: The Movie. Designed with something called the "Taptic Engine," the new trailer vibrates your phone at key parts during the trailer, to simulate the feeling of the Formula One racecars. The gimmick might seem silly, but once you open up the new F1 trailer on your phone, it's actually pretty cool. You can click on that trailer right here, or just open up the Apple TV app on your device.F1 tells the story of Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a retired F1 driver who comes back to the sport after a near-fatal crash sidelined him in the 1990s. During his comeback, Sonny is paired with Noah Pearce (Damson Idris), a younger, hot-headed driver who becomes both Sonny's partner and, apparently, rival. The movie also stars Kerry Condon and Javier Bardem. Perhaps most interestingly, F1: The Movie is directed by Top Gun: Maverick maestro Joseph Kosinski. Will the experience of watching F1 in the theater mimic the vibrating, rough-and-tumble feeling of the haptic trailer? That depends. There are 4DX screenings — which include haptic features — of F1 at Regal Theaters around the Vibrates iPhones Everywhere With Wild New 'Haptic' Movie Trailer first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 11, 2025

Miley Cyrus Teases Spotify Billions Club Live Show in Paris (And a Concert Film Is Coming, Too)
Miley Cyrus is headed to Paris for a very special concert celebrating some of her biggest hits, with the pop star teasing Wednesday (June 11) that she'll be performing at Spotify's next Billions Club Live concert later this month. The news comes via X, on which the streaming giant first posted a lyric to Cyrus' 'End of the World' — 'Let's go to Paris, I don't care if we get lost in the scene' — and added, '@MileyCyrus, you coming?' More from Billboard DJ Akademiks Denies Taking Payola From Drake During Kendrick Battle Raekwon and Ghostface Killah Release Trailer for 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx' Documentary SEVENTEEN Have a Good Time Being a 'Bad Influence' in Futuristic Video For Pharrell-Produced Single The singer then reposted the message and wrote: 'I'll meet you there. Next week. #BillionsClubLive.' Billions Club Live was introduced last December, with The Weeknd playing the first show in the series for about 2,000 people in Los Angeles to celebrate his long roster of songs that have surpassed a billion Spotify streams. The crowd was made up of fans selected for being in the 'Blinding Lights' artist's top percentage of listeners on the music service. Cyrus has several songs that have reached the ten-digit milestone, including 'Wrecking Ball,' 'We Can't Stop,' 'Angels Like You' and 'Party in the U.S.A.' The Spotify concert comes on the heels of her new album Something Beautiful, which dropped May 30 and debuted this week at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. The LP marks her first full-length since 2023's Endless Summer Vacation, which spawned eight-week Billboard Hot 100-topper 'Flowers' — a song that has garnered more than 2 billion streams on the platform, meaning fans in Paris can almost definitely expect that she'll perform it during her Billions Club Live show. Spotify confirmed to Billboard that this Billions Club Live show will be filmed and released as a concert film later this summer. The upcoming show will be especially meaningful as Cyrus' live performances are few and far between these days. When she does perform, it's usually in an intimate setting — such as the Chateau Marmont, where she recently hosted a Something Beautiful listening party. In 2023, the Hannah Montana alum announced that she had no intention of touring for the foreseeable future. While promoting Something Beautiful on Apple Music 1 in May, Cyrus elaborated on her decision to skip touring, noting that staying off the road is best for her sobriety and protecting her vocal cords.
