Everything unveiled at Netflix: Tudum
Sneak peeks of Netflix's 2025-2026 lineup just dropped, as fans and press filled Los Angeles' Kia Forum for Netflix's annual Tudum event. It was the first one to take place on American soil, and the streaming giant made sure it was filled with some star cameos. SEE ALSO: What's new to streaming this week? (May 30, 2025) Hosted by actor and Netflix star Sofia Carson, the event included first previews and new trailers, and notably left out updates for tentpole shows like Bridgerton's Season 4 or Emily in Paris. But we did get a surprise Lady Gaga performance. So, it all works out. Release dates and the first teaser trailer for Netflix's flagship 80s preteen drama were revealed, a three-volume finale that will see El and her pals taking on the complete power of the Upside Down. Stranger Things' trilogy of episodes will drop globally across the holiday season: The day before Thanksgiving (November 26), Christmas (December 25), and New Year's Eve (December 31). The end of an era. Fans were graced with the complete cast list and an eerie teaser trailer for Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, the upcoming installment of Ryan Johnson's Whodunnit series starring Daniel Craig as Benoit Blanc, the internet's favorite sleuth. New character reveals show a devout Glenn Close, Mila Kunis as a town sheriff, and priestly Josh O'Connor covered in mud. Out June 27, the third and final installment of Squid Games picks up right where the previous season's cliffhanger ending left off, with Seong Gi-hun (Player 456) and the games' survivors enduring even deadlier challenges in the shadow of a revolution. Season 2 of Netflix's One Piece adaptation won't be out until 2026, but fans just got their first peek of beloved Straw Hat Crew member Tony Tony Chopper. Voiced by Mikaela Hoover (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3), the popular reindeer is the star of his own spin-off manga series — maybe a future Netflix show is on the horizon. Netflix dropped the first trailer for Academy Award-winner Guillermo Del Toro's highly anticipated Frankenstein, an adaptation of the Mary Shelley classic that the director has called his lifelong passion project. Evoking the breathtaking production of Del Toro's most iconic creature-centered masterpieces, Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of Water, and the eerie romance of Gothic epic Crimson Peak, Frankenstein sees Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi face off as maker and progeny in the genre-defining tale. One of Adam Sandler's most iconic characters is returning to the big (streaming) screen on July 25, as Happy Gilmore comes out of retirement to fulfill his daughter's ballet dreams. The cast features Ben Stiller, Bad Bunny (as Happy's new caddie), Margaret Qualley, and Martin Herlihy of SNL's Please Don't Destroy — as well as some sporty cameos from Travis Kelce, AEW star MJF, and golf legend Rory McIlroy. Tudum attendees also got a sneak peek of the new Ben Affleck and Matt Damon crime thriller The Rip, which will be released in 2026. To tide over the unlucky who didn't get to see the dynamic duo in person, Netflix dropped a short clip of the besties almost arresting Cookie Monster. Netflix closed the show with the first six minutes of the upcoming second season of Wednesday, revealing the titular character tied up and surrounded by terrifying dolls in the hands of a serial killer. Part one drops August 6, and part two will follow on September 3. Live on stage at the Tudum event, Jenna Ortega and Lady Gaga performed a Wednesday-inspired medley of the Addams Family jingle and Gaga's "Abracadabra."

Angels Demote RHP Ryan Johnson to High-A in Shocking Move
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Los Angeles Angels have been known to fast track their young players to the Major Leagues. They seem to be regretting that move in regards to one of their pitchers. Right-handed pitcher Ryan Johnson was a surprise story of the spring, as he broke camp with the club despite never pitching at the professional level. The 74th overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft became just the 24th player in MLB history since the draft was instituted in 1965 to bypass the minor leagues altogether. Safe to say that move didn't exactly pan out how the Angels had hoped. More news: MLB Power Rankings — Dodgers Fall, Yankees Rise as Surging AL Team Takes Top Spot While Johnson became a trusted member of the bullpen, being used as one of the team's highest-leverage relievers this season, his struggles became too much for the Halos to overcome. After sporting a 7.36 ERA across 14 appearances, the Angels decided to option him. They didn't just option him to Triple-A, though. In a massive roster shuffle on Friday, the Angels announced that Johnson was being demoted to High-A. While it wouldn't have been a surprise for Johnson to open the season in High-A, going from the big leagues to High-A is going to be quite an adjustment for the 22-year-old rookie.

Redding high school principal charged with resisting police, public drunkenness
The principal at Enterprise High School in Redding has been charged with resisting a police officer and public intoxication in connection to an incident at his home in February. Ryan Johnson pleaded not guilty to the charges on May 2 during an arraignment in Shasta County Superior Court. Johnson, 47, volunteered to take time off work after his arrest. Shasta Union High School Superintendent Jim Cloney said the principal was off work for about a week. Police were called to Johnson's home shortly before 10:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 22 because Johnson was allegedly standing in front of his ex-wife's car, blocking her from driving away, according to a Redding police report of the incident. Johnson told the Record Searchlight he called police that night for assistance with a child custody issue. A Redding police report says Johnson's ex-wife was taking their daughter with her as she left in her vehicle. When police arrived at his home officers told him and his ex-wife to "disperse." Johnson, who has been a principal at Enterprise for the past nine years said he went into his home, but he was arrested after he went back outside to seek clarification with the officers. Enterprise High School Principal Ryan Johnson speaks during the Sept. 29, 2024, dedication of a sculpture created in the memory of the five EHS cheerleaders who lost their lives in a 1968 crash on Highway 44. Johnson's current wife told police that her husband drank a bottle of Captain Morgan rum and that "when he starts drinking he doesn't stop and gets angry," according to a police report. "I asked her if he assaulted her (and) she told me he did not, and she hid from him while (Johnson) was arguing with his son," the report says, referring to his current wife. His wife asked the officer when her husband "would be getting out of jail due to her wanting to get away from him due to her being concerned for her and her child's safety," the officer wrote in a report. The report does not specify which child she referred to. Johnson's wife, Tammy, told the Record Searchlight that the police report was inaccurate, saying she was not hiding from her husband, and she was not afraid he would hurt her or her children. On Tuesday, Johnson told the Record Searchlight he did not drink an entire bottle of rum and that he did not engage in any domestic violence or threaten anyone the night he was arrested. He said he was horsing around with his 18-year-old son and another one of his children misinterpreted that and thought they were fighting. He said he has not been accused of or charged with domestic violence. In a follow-up report, police interviewed Johnson's wife, who told an officer that her husband had never abused her. "I guess my thing is, I just want to make sure that that's noted because I'm not a violent person, nor have I ever been accused of it, nor have I ever come close to doing that ― and clearly the charges aren't reflective of that. The charges are drunk and disorderly and obstructing an officer," Johnson told the newspaper. One witness told police Johnson was a "six or seven" on a scale of one to 10, with one being a single drink and 10 being heavily intoxicated, according to a police report. Johnson said he was not administered a blood-alcohol test the night he was arrested. Police said Johnson resisted when officers tried to put handcuffs on him, but Johnson said he was not resisting. It was difficult for him to put his arms behind his back because he is so big, listing his height at 5 feet, 11 inches and his weight at 250 pounds. After they arrested him, police took him to the Shasta County Jail, where he was booked and released on his own recognizance, he said. Asked if anyone brought up his arrest after he returned to work at school and what students should take from his incident, Johnson said he has taken responsibility for his actions and has tried to be transparent about what happened. "I'm holding myself accountable. I did so publicly, and I'll continue to just work through the process, just like anyone else would," he said. "So if anything, I'd like to publicly thank my staff and students and parents for supporting me through this process," Johnson said. Cloney said he continues to support Johnson, and said there is a lesson for students in what Johnson is going through. "I think Ryan did a good job as far as being very transparent about what he was dealing with for both staff, students and parents. I think he was proactive in communicating that he obviously had some things to work on, and I think he's been very sincere in that. "So I think, if anything, I would hope students would take away that obviously adults and people in their lives they see as mentors can certainly make mistakes, but how you respond to that is really the important part," Cloney said.

Angels Make Historic Announcement After Cardinals Game
The Los Angeles Angels picked up their third win of the MLB season on Monday, defeating the St. Louis Cardinals in extra innings. Now 3-1 through four games, Los Angeles is off to a strong start after losing a franchise record 99 games last season. While the Angels made some external moves this offseason, they were also aggressive with some internal promotions. This included the decision to name right-handed relief pitcher Ryan Johnson to the Opening Day roster after no MiLB games. Advertisement Drafted in the second round by the Angels in 2024, Johnson went straight to the big leagues after six Spring Training appearances. Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Ryan Johnson (81)© Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images With Monday's game going to extra innings and the Angels having used a lot of relievers during their opening series in Chicago, Johnson was called upon in the 10th inning for his first career save opportunity. Nailing down the save, Johnson finished off the win for Los Angeles, making MLB history in the process. "Among all MLB players to go straight from the Draft to the Majors without playing in the minor leagues, Ryan Johnson is the first to record his first career save within his first two games," the Angels announced on X. The Angels are known for being aggressive with recently drafted prospects, having promoted first baseman Nolan Schanuel to the majors after just 22 minor league games. Looking for any spark to help them return to the playoffs for the first time since 2014, the Angels are relying on a combination of veterans and young players.
