Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez Are Enjoying Their 'Very New' Romance
THE RUNDOWN Months after Jessica Alba filed for divorce from Cash Warren, the actress is getting back into dating—and is enjoying a 'very new' romance with actor Danny Ramirez, a source told People on July 17, 2025. The two stars were photographed returning from a vacation in Mexico, sparking rumors about their relationship. Neither Ramirez nor Alba has commented publicly on their status, but multiple sources have discussed about their connection. Here's what to know about Ramirez and his history with Alba. It wasn't love at first sight for Alba and Ramirez. A source told Us Weekly on July 16, 2025 that the two stars 'were friends before it turned romantic,' and that the actress 'is still keeping things casual.' '[They] have a lot of mutual friends,' the source explained. 'They run in the same social circle, and that is how they were connected. [They] have been keeping things low-key for the last month.' On July 14, TMZ posted photos of the two stars boarding a flight from Cancún to Los Angeles, which set off speculation about their relationship. Three days later, Page Six reported that Alba and Ramirez were romantically involved, though the actress was 'not in that frame of mind' for exclusivity and was 'looking to just have fun' following her divorce. A source told the outlet that Ramirez is 'cool, a nice guy, and he is enamored with her.' That same day, a source told People they were dating, but it's 'very new. They're having a good time together.' Ramirez has built an enviable career in both television and film. He first gained attention in Top Gun: Maverick as Lt. Mickey 'Fanboy' Garcia, and later joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Joaquin Torres in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He reprised that role in the Captain America: Brave New World movie, which was released in February 2025. He had a major television role in 2025 as well, appearing in season 2 of HBO's The Last of Us as Manny Alvarez. Ramirez was born in Chicago on Sept. 17, 1992, and later moved to Miami. 'As a little kid, I was like, 'There's only one thing I'm going to be when I grow up, and it's a pro athlete,'' he told Empire in February 2025. He originally pursued soccer and briefly played at Oglethorpe University before an ankle injury changed his plans. From there, Ramirez enrolled in NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, where he honed his craft in New York's indie theater and film scene. In a 2022 Interview discussion, he credited that early hustle as one of the times he's worked the hardest. 'Fall semester sophomore year at NYU Tisch. Hamlet, Mark Antony, Hotspur, Shylock, amongst other roles while continuing to audition,' he recalled. Ramirez has spoken openly about the mentorship he's received from actors like Tom Cruise and Anthony Mackie. 'To this day, we text all the time; [Cruise] replies faster than anyone I know,' he told Men's Health in February 2025. Ramirez said Mackie helped him understand the Marvel cast's collaborative spirit early on. 'Being in the MCU is like being in a theater troupe. Everyone here has been working together for the past 15 years,' he told Lewis Pullman in a February 2025 Interview story. For his role in Captain America: Brave New World, Ramirez took his physical preparation seriously, telling Men's Health that he dropped 17 pounds. 'I wanted to look as shredded as Bruce Lee,' he said. Ramirez emphasized that his transformation was natural. He relied on clean eating and intense exercise: 'The entire meal plan structure was around, essentially, how do I sustain doing two-a-days around mixed martial arts and weight lifting?' Before his romance with Alba, Ramirez kept his personal life under wraps. There's no confirmed record of past relationships, and he's spoken more frequently about his passion for acting, family, and fitness than his dating history. His relationship with Alba appears to be his first publicly known one. 'Jessica hasn't been in the dating game for decades, so she is having fun with it right now,' a source told Us Weekly on July 16, 2025. Ramirez has spoken about the significance of portraying a Latino superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In his February 2025 interview with Men's Health, he reflected on why 'it means a lot' to represent his culture on such a global stage. 'I'm gonna be able to tell every story I want to tell,' Ramirez said. 'But what gets me excited—and it took my grandma to realize this—my grandma sent me a picture from Mexico, holding a stuffed toy of Falcon. A McDonald's Happy Meal toy. I was like, 'Whoa, shit.' I didn't do this to get the toy, but the fact that I was a toy…subconsciously, as a kid, I developed a relationship toward characters and the actors who portrayed them. It's incredible to think that could be happening somewhere, whether they're Latino or not—that they connect with me, and it opens up their imagination.' In a February 2025 interview with ESPN's SportsCenter@Night, Ramirez shared how growing up around the Miami Hurricanes football program shaped his ambition. 'What the Hurricanes represent to me is the opportunity and permission to be great,' he said. 'Being around that as a kid is something you can't trade for anything.' He's carried that drive into his career. When asked what he hopes to leave behind, he told Interview in 2022: 'A wave.'

Currently, he is also filming 'Avengers: Doomsday', scheduled for release on December 18, 2026. According to sources, including a report from "People", Alba has been enjoying her singleness and has not been dating anyone seriously. Before their Cancun vacation, Ramirez and the 44-year-old actress were reportedly spotted spending time together and taking a stroll in London's Regent's Park before his identity was revealed, sparking romance rumours. However, details about the nature of their relationship remain scarce as they have neither confirmed nor denied any of the romance allegations. This comes after Alba and her husband of nearly 19 years, Cash Warren, announced their separation earlier this year. In February, Alba announced that she was separated from her husband, film producer Warren, after the two were together for nearly two decades. In an Instagram post, she shared that she has been on a journey of self-realisation and transformation, both as an individual and in her relationship. She expressed pride in the growth they experienced together with Warren and acknowledged that it was time for them to embark on new journeys individually. Despite the changes, Alba emphasised that they were moving forward with love, kindness, and respect for each other. Warren and Alba share three kids together, daughters Honor, who is 16, Haven, 13, and 6-year-old son Hayes. Nearly a month after the news of their split broke, Alba and Warren took the next step, filing for divorce. However, they prioritised their children and are hoping to keep the divorce as amicable as possible.

Wyatt Russell Hints at ‘Completely Different' John Walker in ‘Avengers: Doomsday'
Many Marvel fans kicked off summer with a newfound love of a group that dubbed themselves 'The New Avengers.' The release of the popular film Thunderbolts* took superhero fans by storm, as the group of underdogs emerged as the next hot thing in the Marvel universe. While there's been no word on a potential sequel film, one thing fans can look forward to is the 2026 release of Avengers: Doomsday. Multiple members of the Thunderbolts* are slated to be in the latest Avengers movie. Among the names set to jump into the star-studded superhero film is Wyatt Russell, who played U.S. Agent John Walker in Thunderbolts* and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Interestingly, Russell explained what was so unique about playing John Walker in Thunderbolts*, but also detailed how it's likely to be a "completely different" version of the character in Avengers: Doomsday during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "...That was what I found interesting about the character — you can play an insecure superhero who's still good at his job, but needs to learn things about himself to become fully realized," Russell explained. "So there's an arc I can play over however many series or movies and still make the character interesting. And that's what I enjoyed about it. The John Walker I played in Falcon and the Winter Soldier in 2020 is completely different version than the guy in Thunderbolts* and I think will be completely different again in Avengers: Doomsday." It's an interesting comment from Russell, who also told The Hollywood Reporter that they began filming the next Avengers "about a month and a half ago." Whether he's been filming for the bulk of that or just a portion is unknown, but it could give some insight into his role in the film. Avengers: Doomsday's release date was pushed back in late May, and is now slated to hit theaters on Dec. 18, Russell Hints at 'Completely Different' John Walker in 'Avengers: Doomsday' first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 7, 2025

'Running' As A Super Serumed Character In The MCU Is Not For The Faint Of Heart, Confirms Captain America: Brave New World Star
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Following his debut four years ago in the Disney+ subscription-exclusive series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Carl Lumbly's Isaiah Bradley returned for the 2025 movie release of Captain America: Brave New World. Unfortunately, the Korean War veteran enhanced with super soldier serum was made an unwitting pawn of Samuel Sterns' schemes, having been brainwashed into attempting to assassinate President Thaddeus Ross. While Isaiah is still in peak physical condition at such an advanced age thanks to the serum coursing through his veins, Lumbly informed me that the running aspect of his big action sequence took quite the toll on him from an emotional standpoint. I had the pleasure of speaking with the actor on behalf of Captain America: Brave New World's Digital release, with the Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD rollout set for May 13. During our conversation, I asked him what the most difficult or challenging part of shooting the White House action sequence, and he started off telling me: Running. That would be my simple answer. Because in many ways, and I'm not trying to be funny about this, he couldn't run fast enough even with super serum in his system. There's no way to outrun the reality that he's living in. So something about coming to and realizing that he had perpetrated something that he had no idea what he had done, but he knew that he was right back where he had been so often in his experience with this country. He was being accused of something that he did not do, he was accused of thinking things that he did not think, and he was locked away with himself once again, not knowing what his fate would be, having his life in the hands of other people. Remember that Isaiah Bradley was thrown in prison for defying orders and going behind enemy lines to rescue some fellow Black super soldiers during the Korean War. He was experimented on by the US government and HYDRA for 30 years, and the only reason it wasn't longer was because a nurse faked his death and managed to smuggle him out. So for him to be thrown in prison yet again for actions he wasn't in control of was emotionally devastating. Like Carl Lumbly said, no amount of running was going to fix the horrible situation he'd been forced into. The good news for Isaiah, however, was that he had Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson in his corner during Brave New World. As Lumbly laid out for me, the new Captain America's differing perspective on life compared to Isaiah's meant he had the drive to prove his friend's innocence, whereas Isaiah had resigned himself to spending the rest of his life in prison. As the actor put it: It just happens that in this instance, his life is in the hands of the best person he could hope for, Sam Wilson, Captain America. And the world in which Sam operates is very different from the world in which Isaiah operated. Sam has agency and capabilities and assumptions and expectations that Isaiah has not dared have, but seeing that it's possible has to affect his thinking. So it's beyond the fact that Sam can save him. It's that Sam can operate in a world that looks completely like madness to Isaiah, but Sam can operate there. And maybe if Sam can, perhaps Isaiah can too. More Captain America: Brave New World Coverage Captain America 4's Home Release Doesn't Include A Key Scene That Was In The Trailer, And There Are Several Theories As To What Happened Captain America: Brave New World's Rewrites Have Been A Major Topic. Now, Giancarlo Esposito Reveals How His Character Came Together Last Minute As is often the case with these Marvel movies, good won out in the end. Sam Wilson, Joaquin Torres and their allies exposed Samuel Sterns' crimes, and after Ross' rampage as Red Hulk was stopped, Isaiah Bradley was freed. It's hard to say if we'll see Carl Lumbly reprise Isaiah in another upcoming Marvel movie or upcoming Marvel TV show, but I'd like to think that Sam's actions will indeed affect him and push him towards being more open with the world. With Captain America: Brave New World out of the way, the next Marvel movie on the docket is Thunderbolts*, which arrives on May 2. One month later, you can see Carl Lumbly back on the big screen starring opposite Tom Hiddleston in Mike Flanagan's The Life of Chuck.
