The animated film set to become Netflix's biggest ever hit - to the fury of Disney bosses who sank millions into woke flops like Moana, by TOM LEONARD

The three members of a superstar South Korean girl pop group Huntr/x go giggly over dreamy boys with six-packs and prance around on stage in skimpy outfits that show off their Barbie-doll figures. But they're also 'bad-ass' warriors who fight demonic forces not only with magic weapons but with the mystical power of their catchy three-part harmonies. So they're quite literally saving the world every time they sing.

Fireworks, warplanes and axes: How France celebrates Bastille Day

PARIS — Swooping warplanes, axe-carrying warriors, a drone light show over the Eiffel Tower and fireworks in nearly every French town — it must be Bastille Day. France is celebrating its biggest holiday Monday with 7,000 people marching, on horseback or riding armored vehicles along the cobblestones of the Champs-Elysees, the most iconic avenue in Paris. And there are plans for partying and pageantry around the country.

Mark Wahlberg hails Scots brothers rowing the Pacific as ‘warriors'

Three Scottish brothers attempting to become the fastest people to row across the Pacific have received a second call of support from Hollywood star Mark Wahlberg. Ewan, Jamie and Lachlan Maclean are more than halfway into their 120-day Pacific challenge to cross 9,000 miles of open ocean between Lima and Sydney. Earlier in June, the Perfect Storm star had video-called them to say their record-breaking bid 'could be a movie'. In his latest call, the 53-year-old actor said he would keep in touch with the trio as they make their way across the globe, hailing them as 'f****** warriors'. He said: 'You guys are bored. You need someone to talk to. You need someone to, you know, give you a little pump up. Let me know. I'm available.' Wahlberg joked: 'Well, you know what would make me a legend? Playing one of you guys, or all three, in a movie. There've been a few actors who've played twins before, but I could maybe play all three of you, change up my look a little bit.' He added: 'You guys are doing something that's so extraordinary. It's another level. This is real man shit you're doing. You're out there with big smiles on your faces, pounding away, while everybody else is lying in bed in dreamland, nice and dry, and still waking up complaining about something. 'You're not doing this for attention – you're doing it to raise attention for a very worthy cause. You guys are real men. You're f****** warriors. It's incredible. 'Hopefully, you'll inspire other people to find something important to do to raise awareness. It's awesome, guys.' As well as aiming to set a record for the fastest row across the world's largest ocean, the brothers are hoping to raise £1 million for clean water projects in Madagascar. So far they have raised more than £125,000. Challenges experienced by the brothers so far include salt sores, relentless weather, a broken water maker and a faulty auto helm. Their 28ft (8.5m) carbon fibre boat, Rose Emily, is named in memory of their late sister. It has no engine and no sail and the brothers are powering their way across the ocean in two-hour shifts.
