Bold and Beautiful 2-Week Spoilers July 6-17: Ridge’s Explosive Rage Shakes Steffy!
Bold and the Beautiful 2-Week Spoilers for July 6 – 17, 2026 stun with Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) exploding when there’s another assault on R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti) plus Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) is infuriated not only by the recent betrayal by Logan and Hope Logan (Annika Noelle), but also because of Finn’s Finnegan‘s (Tanner Novlan) biological connection.
We are going to get into the latest spoilers for July 6th through the 17th, including an update on what caused Hope’s collapse, Electra’s Forrester‘s (Laneya Grace) ultimatum, and Katie Logan‘s (Heather Tom) worried about her son. All that and lots more.
Bold and the Beautiful: Will’s Aggression and Electra’s Choice
On Monday, July 6th, we’ve got Electra continuing her nonsense from Friday. She is barking at Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) about the Logan scandal and Electra accuses Will of helping create this scandal and asks how could he do this? And then Electra tells Will that she is leaving and he tries to talk Electra into staying. But then R.J. shows up telling Will to just let Electra go being a bossy little nepo baby. So, it looks like Will punches R.J. again. And then Electra is going to take R.J. to the hospital because it looks like it’s a pretty hard pop this time.
Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) is shocked by what he finds. So, Hope has collapsed in the showroom after Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) was raging at Brooke then walked out. So, maybe Hope had a panic attack, but I’ve got fingers crossed that she is pregnant. I think that would be great. And Steffy’s looking pretty ticked off at the office on Monday. So, we’ll see if Brooke reports back after the tantrum she threw at Logan and the thing she actually threw at Logan when she was breaking stuff.
Bold and the Beautiful: Ridge’s Crusade and Sheila’s Request
Tuesday, July 7th, Katie’s over at Will’s beach house. And I think Katie might be consoling Will over his drama with Electra, who did walk out on him with R.J. Will’s going to be upset that Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) expected him to keep things secret from Electra, but Katie may explain that Electra was wrong to demand that he spill trade secrets.
Ridge finds R.J. on the couch at the Logan estate with Electra holding an ice pack on his head. Ridge wants to know if his head is still throbbing. R.J. says it’ll be all right. And Ridge says nothing about this is all right. Electra says she’s glad it wasn’t more serious. Ridge says it could have been and he’s griping about that R.J. could have had a concussion or something worse. Electra says she took R.J. to the hospital the night before and Finn said he’s okay. And then Ridge wants to know, “How did we get here?” And R.J. says, “Will got upset.” And Ridge says Will answers questions with his fist.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Both Sides at Boiling Point
Maybe Ridge should ask why R.J. showed up and just walked in to Will’s house. You know, so Electra suggests that maybe Ridge should talk to Will, but R.J. says he doesn’t need his dad fighting his battles for him. Ha. And Ridge says they have to do something before this gets worse. Also, he gives Electra an ultimatum.
And Ridge might tell Electra that she can’t date Will and still work at Forrester Creations because we know how they tend to cross lines and get into people’s personal lives there. Also, Finn is there to support Steffy. She is upset about Hope’s betrayal and will also be angry when she hears that Will hit R.J. again. I’m sure Steffy is going to vent to Finn about her stepsister and of course he will side with Steffy as he should.
But we all saw her making Hope’s life at Forrester Creations difficult. But then in Steffy’s defense, Hope pursued Finn. She kissed him. Then she pulled a coup with Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) after Steffy fired her over the Finn thing. Plus, Hope just tried to get Brooke to steal Steffy’s job as co-CEO. So, lots of justifiable anger on both sides.
Bold and the Beautiful: Divorce and Monaco Drama
Wednesday, July 8th, Ridge is trying to change Electra’s feelings about Will. So, Ridge might try to convince her that Will’s a deceitful hothead just like his dad, Bill. And now that Will has assaulted R.J. twice, Ridge might tell Electra, “Decide where your loyalties lie.” We also have on Wednesday Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) being very clear about what she wants.
She’s going to show up back at Deacon Sharpe’s (Sean Kanan) place and we’re going to see Sheila asking Taylor Hayes (Rebecca Budig) if she spoke to Steffy about allowing her into the family. And Taylor tells Sheila she knows that request is impossible. But it looks like Taylor takes the request to Steffy after Sheila throws Deacon a bone.
Thursday, July 9th, the next day, after this whole scene at his apartment, it’s official. Sheila and Deacon’s marriage is over. So, I’m thinking Sheila is going to sign the divorce papers as long as Taylor promises to genuinely advocate for her with Steffy. And I think Taylor will at least give it a bit of a try. Finn is taken aback by a surprise visitor. And this may be Sheila showing up to the hospital to see Finn. Hopefully she won’t drop by the Malibu house stalking him, but you never know with her.
Taylor goes up to Forrester Creations to the CEO office to talk to Steffy about Sheila’s request. That’s not going to go well. Steffy doesn’t want Sheila back in their lives. You know, she did try to kill Steffy and Finn both. And Sheila’s lies helped her crazy granddaughter Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) run free twice before she finally died. So why should Steffy relent?
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Ridge Faces Off with Bill
Then on Friday, July 10th, Ridge is going to trot over to the Logan and Spencer offices to confront Bill. I’m betting it’s about the Hope betrayal, about how upset Brooke is, and more importantly about Bill’s son Will assaulting R.J. for a second time over Electra. So, Bill is really smug and tells Ridge that there is new royalty in LA fashion.
And I’m sure he’s going to tell Bill that he’s scum and that Will is just like him. And if Ridge is griping about Will hitting R.J., I’m betting that Bill laughs it off and says, “That’s my boy.” So, he’s pushing back on Ridge, and we’re going to see Bill putting his finger in Ridge’s face. We’ll see if those two don’t come to blows on Bold and the Beautiful.
Also, Taylor wonders if Sheila really has turned over a new leaf or if she could turn violent again, especially if Steffy doesn’t agree to what Sheila wants. Two people have been stuck in between them and I expect this is Sheila versus Steffy again. And Finn makes a pledge to Steffy that she will always be his priority no matter what.
Bold and the Beautiful: Monaco and Love Triangles – July 13th Through 17th
The week of July 13th through the 17th, we’re going to have Ridge, Steffy, and Finn heading to Monaco soon. I don’t know the exact date, but that’s coming soon. Sheila’s going to follow them. And what happens there is life-changing. It includes a huge confrontation between Sheila and Steffy.
And it looks like Sheila somehow proves herself to Steffy while there. Maybe she saves Finn or Steffy or both. So, we should be hearing this next week, the week of July 13th, about their travel plans and why they’re going to Monaco.
Also, after all the drama between Will and Electra, looks like Miss Dylan (Sydney Bullock) is back on Will’s radar as a potential love interest. Crew Morrow posted a social media photo with actress Sydney Bullock asking if fans are ready for more Will and Dylan, which isn’t surprising because I expect R.J. to be all over Electra trying to make sure she doesn’t go back to Will. And R.J.’s interest in Dylan may instantly evaporate if R.J. thinks he has a shot with Electra.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Forresters vs. Spencers
After their confrontation the prior week, Bill and Ridge are at war along with Katie and Brooke. And we’ll see how Hope handles the fallout and what is next for her and Deke Sharpe (Harrison Cone) over at Logan. We’ll also see what’s next for Hope after her collapse.
Fingers crossed it’s a baby and not some cheesy medical crisis. Liam and Hope settle into the Spencer mansion as Brooke continues to simmer with rage. Katie and Bill are thrilled to have them and Beth Spencer (Jordyn Lynn Ariza) there.
Carter and Daphne Rose (Murielle Hilaire) face a devastating challenge soon. I suspect it’s going to be infertility issues. We also have Taylor and Deacon really excited about their future now that he is officially divorced from Sheila and he and Taylor can move forward. They could even get engaged. That would be fun.
Brooke, Ridge, and Steffy plot on what they’re going to do about this Logan threat. Hopefully, Ridge will back off what I think are disastrous decisions to put off Eric Forrester’s (John McCook) couture launch and to shove the jewelry line. And we’ve got Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) desperate for forgiveness from both Eric and Brooke.
That’s your Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for July 6-17.
Not everyone got an invite to the highly anticipated wedding of the year, including a key figure from Travis Kelce‘s Tight End group.
Dave Portnoy addressed the snub on his podcast, revealing retired NFL star Will Compton was not invited to his pal’s union with Taylor Swift.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift tied the knot on Friday, July 3, at Madison Square Garden. The guest list featured several prominent A-listers, including stars from the sports world.
During Monday’s episode of his “Wake Up Barstool” podcast, Portnoy called out Kelce for not inviting Compton to his July 3 union with Swift. He pointed out that everyone in the athlete’s Tight End University group scored an invite to the ceremony, excluding the retired NFL star.
When he dropped the claim, Bobby Joseph Hebert III, better known as T-Bob Hebert, noted that Compton probably didn’t get an invite because of his business in Italy. Then Portnoy called the media personality on his show to ask for his thoughts on the snub.
Compton, as heard in the clip shared on X, sounded breathless as he explained his side of the story. He noted he was speaking while running on the treadmill and confirmed he never got an invite to Kelce and Swift’s wedding before sharing his reaction.
The Kansas City Chiefs Player’s Pal Was ‘Flabbergasted’ By The Snub
The retired NFL player confessed that he initially did not think too much about not getting invited to the wedding until he noticed almost everyone he knew had attended the affair. Naturally, being excluded left a sour taste in his mouth, with Compton saying:
“I’ve been seeing these photos of everybody else at that wedding. I’m kind of flabbergasted that we didn’t get the invite.”
He noted that he wouldn’t make assumptions until he spoke to Kelce or someone named George about what happened. Compton later addressed his reaction on the podcast on X, writing, “Tough phone call. Heart rate had been at 142 for 44 minutes at that point.”
The NFL Alum’s Snub Left Fans Disheartened
The comment section was filled with heartbroken reactions about Compton’s exclusion from the wedding, with some shocked Kelce had snubbed him. “It is crazy to think you’re not one of Travis’ closest 1200 boys,” a fan mused. Another echoed similar sentiments, wondering if Compton’s invite got lost in his spam mail.
“Even Claire Kittle’s mother and George Kittle’s parents got an invite!!” an X user claimed, adding that “Travis owes Will an explanation.” The stunned feelings continued, with someone noting Compton deserved an invite. On the other hand, some fans were not surprised.
“Why the f-ck would he be invited? He didn’t get snubbed,” someone argued. A fellow critic slammed Portnoy for stirring up trouble with Compton’s invite snub claims, dubbing them “pathetic men being petty and immature.”
All The NFL Stars Who Attended Travis Kelce’s Wedding
Compton’s absence was glaring due to the large number of NFL stars who scored an invite to Kelce and Swift’s wedding. The list included the athlete’s Kansas City Chiefs teammates such as Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany Mahomes.
The Chiefs’ defensive tackle Chris Jones made the list alongside the team’s center Creed Humphrey and defensive end George Karlaftis, who attended with his wife, Kaia Karlaftis. Former Chiefs star Mecole Hardman was also a guest.
The list continued with former Chiefs stars Isiah Pacheco and JuJu Smith-Schuster. NFL alum Tom Brady, Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Beau Allen, former NFL tight end Greg Olsen, ESPN commentator Joe Buck, and more also made the list, per Clutch Points.
Taylor Swift’s Bouquet Lands In The Kansas City Chiefs Family
Besides having many from the NFL world as guests, a part of Kelce and Swift’s wedding coincidentally honored a member of the Kansas City Chiefs family. The Blast covered the story, reporting that the person who caught “The Fate of Ophelia” hitmaker’s bouquet was related to the team.
Trey Smith’s sister, Ashley Smith, confirmed she was the lucky individual who caught Swift’s bouquet at the July 3 ceremony. She shared the news on Instagram, dropping a carousel of images detailing her appearance at the highly publicized event.
For the big day, Ashley rocked a stunning embellished black gown and took two pictures with the bouquet. The flowers were bent at different angles, with a huge chunk of the bouquet missing, presumably from the struggle to catch the flowers. Ashley’s brother, Trey, is the Chiefs’ guard.
Actress and former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Claudia Jordan caused a stir in June 2026 when she alleged that one of the current cast members on the show was pregnant. Now, after substantial backlash, the “Love & Hip Hop Miami” personality is responding and revealing where she allegedly heard the “RHOA” pregnancy rumor.
Jordan appeared on an episode of reality television producer Carlos King‘s Patreon show, “Reality After Dark,” in July 2026. In a clip from the show posted to King’s official TikTok page, the former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star addressed the backlash she received from fans who felt she was out of line for spreading a rumor that a cast member was pregnant.
She began, “People are so f-cking fake.” After that, Jordan began to discuss the circumstances that led to her learning about the alleged pregnancy. According to her, “It’s not like someone from the show called me or we had a conversation or it was in confidence and said, ‘Hey, between you and I, such and such is pregnant, no one should know.’”
The former “RHOA” star then revealed that the pregnancy revelation she’d learned about occurred during the recently filmed season 17 reunion. She said, “Just like when we all heard other things that happened, when fights happen, this is revealed, that always gets leaked on blogs and people always run with it.”
Claudia Jordan Says She’s Facing A Double Standard
Jordan continued her side of the story, noting that many high-profile blogs and websites report on rumors from “Housewives” reunions. She said, “No one has a problem, but when I’m told by someone that heard it, it was said in front of like a hundred people: cast, crew, production, all kinds of people.”
Jordan went on, “And they said, ‘Here’s some tea, you can have this.’ It’s something that was said on the show.” From there, regarding some of the criticism she’s faced, the “Run” actress said, “I would never ever tell a secret that someone does not want the masses to know.”
From there, she defended her mentioning of the pregnancy revelation by reiterating that the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star allegedly said it at the reunion, meaning they were comfortable revealing that they were pregnant.
What Claudia Originally Said
Jordan appeared on another episode of King’s show in June 2026, where she and a panel discussed the latest “RHOA” episode. In a clip from the show, she said, “I have some tea, and it’s not from any of the girls on the show.”
She then said, “Someone told someone that told me, someone is pregnant. One of the girls is pregnant.” After that, when discussing the seating chart for the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” reunion, the 53-year-old stated that the woman in question was seated on the right in the reunion seating photo.
It’s important to note that Jordan never gave a name in regard to the woman who was said to be pregnant. However, from there, one of the other panelists speculated that it was “RHOA” newbie Pinky Cole who was pregnant.
The ‘RHOA’ Alum Is Open To Returning To The Show Years After Confrontation With NeNe Leakes
Jordan joined “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” for the show’s seventh season. However, despite making a real mark with viewers, thanks in part to her showdown with NeNe Leakes, she announced her exit following the season in 2015.
Since then, she’s expressed an openness to return despite continuing her acting career and appearing on other reality shows. In 2023, she said to Entertainment Tonight, “I don’t watch ‘Housewives’ anymore. Once I wasn’t on the show, I watched it two more times. Some people go on there, and they make it their entire life. It was a great experience, and I still get love to this day, and I would definitely go back.”
Jordan then said, “I’ve done so many other things, and I’m really loving my time kind of popping in and out of ‘The Breakfast Club’ in New York, films, producing, and I wrote a stage play.”
Claudia Recently Joined ‘Love & Hip Hop: Miami’
Jordan has been a cast member on several reality television shows. However, most recently, she joined “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” for its seventh season. The season began airing in November 2025 and then had its midseason premiere in March 2026.
The season then ended in June 2026, marking the end of the series.

Before the MCU, superheroes on television were few and far between. Sure, we had Smallville, but that was it. Until 2006 when Heroes premiered on NBC and it conquered pop culture. “Save the Cheerleader. Save the world.” is still the greatest tagline in television history. All four seasons of the groundbreaking series are now streaming on Netflix, which is good, because it’s an iconic show, and bad, because all four seasons are streaming when you only need the first one and a half.
Save The Cheerleader. Save The World.
Heroes starts with the “grounded” take on superpowers that annoyed comic fans until Tony Stark emerged from the cave in his Mark 1 armor. For the first season, we follow everyday people slowly learning they have superpowers following a mysterious eclipse. There’s Hiro (Masi Oka) the salaryman in Japan who can manipulate space/time, Peter (Milo Ventimiglia) who mimics the powers of others, Claire (Hayden Panettiere) the high school cheerleader who regenerates like Wolverine, and Sylar (Zachary Quinto) the evil villain who rips open brains to learn how they work, allowing him to gain the powers of others.
Season 1, dubbed “Genesis,” tells a complete story from the simple beginning to the climatic final episode with a knock down drag out fight between Sylar and the heroes trying to stop him. Season 2, “Generations,” picks up later and starts to reveal more about the world and how powered individuals have been around since long before the eclipse. Created by Tim Kring, who started his Hollywood career as a writer for Knight Rider and Misfits of Science, the first two seasons were peak television for 2006. Then the writer’s strike happened.
The Missing Season
The WGA strike cut short Season 2 at 11 episodes, forcing the team to drop storylines, and adjust their plans for Season 3. By then, the world of Heroes had grown to the point of becoming unwieldy with too many characters, organizations, and subplots to devote television time to everyone. If anything, the superhero show became more like the comics of the time.
Amazingly, Heroes Season 3 and 4 may have been narrative kryptonite to audiences, the show was so popular, that it went from a high of 16 million viewers down to 4.5 million, which is a steep drop, but 4.5 million was nothing to sneeze at. It was still popular enough that in 2015, five years after cancellation, it came back with the miniseries Heroes Reborn.
Heroes Reborn Went Back To Basics
Marketed as a back to basics approach, Heroes Reborn has “evols” or “evolved people,” are again, running after being blamed for a terrorist attack. It’s as if the writers read Marvel’s Civil War event and thought that was the greatest story of all time. On the bright side, Tim Kring went into with the plan of telling a complete story, so it sidesteps the biggest issue with the original series.
If it’s been awhile since you’ve watched Heroes, fire it up and give it a weekend binge on Netflix. If you want to keep it going, you can catch Heroes Reborn for free on AppleTV.
The wait is over for Delicious in Dungeons fans. After the anime’s first season premiered on Netflix in 2024, Delicious in Dungeon was highly praised by fans and critics alike. It also spawned a pop-up café in Japan that recreated the dishes seen in the show. Now, Netflix and Studio Trigger are preparing for the show’s return and continuing this delicious adventure.
Delicious in Dungeon is a fantasy series that follows Laios Touden (Damien Haas), whose mission is to save his sister, Falin (Lisa Reimold), after a red dragon ate her. Alongside his party members, Marcille (Emily Rudd) and Chilchuck (Casey Mongillo), and their newest member, Senshi the dwarf (SungWon Cho), they embark on a journey through a dungeon in hopes of saving her before she gets digested. Since its release, the show earned a perfect 100% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, as well as a 93% on the audience Popcornmeter, in addition to landing on Netflix’s Top 10 charts.
Over the weekend at Anime Expo, Delicious in Dungeon announced its release date for Season 2, two years after its confirmation. To celebrate, the series released a first look at the next installment through a poster that resembles the manga’s cover, featuring Laios and his party, as well as Falin, as a Chimera, along with the “Mad Mage” Thristle (Rebeka Thomas). Unfortunately, Delicious in Dungeon‘s return is scheduled for next year, so fans will have to wait a while before they get to see this epic adventure continue.
What Happened in ‘Delicious in Dungeon’ Season 1?
Season 1 of Delicious in Dungeon adapts the first 52 chapters of Ryoko Kui’s manga of the same name, which introduced our main characters, as well as the world the show is set in. Before the events of the anime, an old man claimed to rule the Golden Kingdom that vanished 1,000 years ago. He promised that those who could defeat the Mad Mage would inherit his kingdom before turning into dust.
Years later, Laios and his party faced a red dragon, but were able to escape due to Falin’s sacrifice, casting a teleportation spell, but the spell left her behind, leading her to be eaten by the dragon.
Following their escape, two party members, Namari (Marin Miller) and Shuro (Mark Lauer), left the party, leaving Laios, Marcille, and Chilchuck to venture back into the dungeon. Helping them in their journey is Senshi, who has also shown interest in monster-based meals. Throughout Season 1, the backstories of our main characters were revealed, as well as an introduction of the Mad Mage, and it ended with Laios coming up with a plan in order to save his sister from the mage’s spell.
Delicious in Dungeon Season 2 will enter Netflix in October 2027. In the meantime, all of Season 1 is available to stream. Follow Collider for more updates.

Sci-fi films are known for their creative storytelling and strong technical skills that make the genre exciting for movie lovers. Classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey and newer films like Avatar: Fire and Ash show the potential of sci-fi in cinema. However, there are also many poorly made sci-fi movies, especially front he 90s when almost every other film was a hit.
Even the worst sci-fi films may have some good parts that keep them from being completely unwatchable. This makes truly terrible films stand out more, as they can be very hard to watch due to their utter and complete lack of positives. Here is the list of 6 terrible 90s sci-fi movies I would advise you never to watch.

‘Super Mario Bros’ (1993)
The classic Super Mario Bros. story follows Italian-American plumbers Mario (Bob Hoskins) and Luigi (John Leguizamo), who discover a parallel universe ruled by the ruthless King of Koopas (Dennis Hopper). He kidnaps Daisy (Samantha Mathis) to merge the dimensions and conquer both worlds; so, the brothers must travel to the dystopian city of Dinohattan to rescue her.
The film had an interesting mix of fantasy and science fiction, but it strayed too far from the popular video game it was based on. Viewers felt let down by its confusing world, inconsistent tone, and odd choices. Instead of capturing the fun and color of the games, the movie created a darker setting that didn’t resonate with audiences. Because of this, it is considered one of the least successful video game adaptations ever made.
5
‘Johnny Mnemonic’ (1995)
Johnny Mnemonic follows Johnny (Keanu Reeves), a data courier in a future where people use cybernetic implants to store and transport information. He takes on a risky job that gives him more data than he can handle. This data could kill him if it’s not removed quickly. As powerful organizations come after him, Johnny looks for answers and teams up with others who might help him discover the truth in his mind.
The film introduced some interesting ideas about cyberpunk, but it struggled to connect them in a good way. There were some problems like uneven pacing, awkward dialogue, and weak character development. It almost felt that the story’s big ideas got lost in a confusing plot that didn’t fully explore them. Although Johnny Mnemonic has gained a small cult following over time, it is still seen as one of the weaker science fiction films from the 1990s.
4
‘Judge Dredd’ (1995)
Judge Dredd, created by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra, is a satirical anti-hero in the British comic 2000 AD. In the dystopian future of Mega-City One, Dredd (Sylvester Stallone) acts as the ultimate law enforcer, a street judge with the power to arrest, sentence, and summarily execute criminals. His life changes when someone accuses him of a serious crime, forcing him to question the system he always trusted. As he looks into the accusations, Dredd discovers a conspiracy that involves powerful people who threaten the city’s future.
Despite being based on a well-loved comic book character, many fans were disappointed with the film. Critics said it focused too much on action and didn’t develop the characters or the world enough. Stallone’s portrayal of Judge Dredd divided opinions, as he missed many traits that made the character special in the comics. The result was a film that did not reach its full potential.
3
‘Lost in Space’ (1998)
Lost in Space tells the story of the Robinson family, who go on a mission to help secure humanity’s future through space exploration. Led by Professor John Robinson (William Hurt), they board the Jupiter 2, expecting a well-planned journey. However, sabotage causes chaos. Stuck in an unknown part of space, the Robinsons must work together to survive while facing dangers, limited supplies, and rising tensions caused by Dr. Zachary Smith (Gary Oldman).
Even with a strong cast and a popular TV legacy, the film did not please anyone. Many believed that the visual effects overshadowed the story and characters, and made it hard to engage with the adventure. The screenplay also received criticism for its uneven tone and lack of excitement. Instead of becoming a successful revival of a beloved franchise, Lost in Space became known as one of the decade’s most forgettable sci-fi films.
2
‘Wing Commander’ (1999)
Wing Commander tells the story of Christopher Blair (Freddie Prinze Jr.), a young pilot who joins the military to fight against the Kilrathi, an alien race that is threatening humanity. Blair wants to prove himself and takes on tougher missions while learning what it means to serve in the military. As the war heats up, there are reports that the Kilrathi have found Earth, which could change the entire outcome of the war. However, Blair and his fellow pilots must act fast to stop a possible attack.
Although the film is based on a popular video game series, it did not excite audiences as the games did. Weak acting, ordinary storytelling, and disappointing visual effects are major issues in this movie. The characters were not well-developed, and it was hard to care about them. Instead of providing a thrilling space adventure, Wing Commander became just another video game film that struggled to succeed.
1
‘Alien Resurrection’ (1997)
Alien Resurrection takes place 200 years after Ellen Ripley’s (Sigourney Weaver) death, when Scientists clone her using genetic material from her blood. Their goal is to recover the alien queen embryo that was growing inside her before her death. Although the experiment succeeds, Ripley returns with unusual abilities that make her different from the woman she once was. Soon, a group of mercenaries arrives aboard the research vessel, and this failure allows the deadly creatures to escape, placing everyone in danger.
The film shows impressive visual effects and a strong performance by Sigourney Weaver. However, it was a disappointing sequel. The film lacked the suspense and atmosphere that made the earlier films memorable. The odd tone and questionable choices divided the audience, which makes it hard for the film to find its own identity. In the end, it became one of the most debated films in the Alien series.

At long last, Marvel Studios is finally paying off a set-up from 2017, but after almost a decade it’s clear that The Defenders reunion fans wanted is going to look very different than they were expecting. This corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe started off on Netflix, before Marvel was making its own content for its parent company’s streaming service, Disney+. The studio took its time picking up the pieces of the “Defenderverse,” but in Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, the whole gang is finally back together. Now the question is where the Defenders fit into this new period in MCU history — especially with the big crossovers coming up.
For those catching up, the Disney+ original series Daredevil: Born Again primarily follows Charlie Cox as Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil, but most of the main characters from The Defenders have now shown up. Season 1 saw the return of Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle, a.k.a. The Punisher, who is now entering the MCU on the big screen in Spider-Man: Brand New Day later this month. Earlier this year, Season 2 brought the return of Krysten Ritter as Jessica Jones, with the addition of Mike Colter as Luke Cage. Now, leaked set photos suggest that Finn Jones will be making his return as Danny Rand — a.k.a. Iron Fist — along with Élodie Yung as Elektra. This means The Defenders will be back at full strength, even if they don’t get top billing.
‘The Defenders’ Is An Odd Cultural Artifact In This Streaming Era
It’s hard to believe that the way our entertainment is produced, distributed, and consumed has changed so much in the last decade, but The Defenders might be the best example of how far we’ve come. Back in 2015, the MCU was the biggest box office juggernaut on the big screen, but it was a novel idea to put that same continuity on TV. Marvel made a deal with Netflix to produce and stream shows that would ostensibly share continuity with the movies, but at the time there was no attempt to intersect the stories. The grounded, gritty Netflix shows would make occasional references to the Avengers‘ exploits, but other than that were virtually separate.
Things were so different then that each of the main characters got their own series with a whopping 13 episodes per season before they even crossed over with each other. Since Daredevil got two seasons, that means we spent over 65 hours with Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, before we finally got to the 8-episode crossover series. It’s hard to imagine a streamer investing that much time and money into a series now without cashing in on more crossovers and major events, as the current state of the MCU — and streaming in general — clearly show.
Still, the long history of The Defenders is intact as part of the MCU’s canon and it will contribute to the foundation of what’s coming next for the franchise, and for this plucky little team in particular. Fan theories are already trying to pull these characters in various directions to participate in other stories around the multiverse, but for now the best move Marvel can make is simply to get the team back together. Seeing the Defenders all on one screen again will be a triumphant moment both in-world and in real life.
‘Daredevil: Born Again’ May Need Some Spinoffs
As exciting as it is to see Jones and Yung on the set of Daredevil: Born Again Season 3, it is a little heartbreaking to see this whole team falling in behind a de facto frontman. The Defenders are a complex group, and their cooperation is not contingent on an Avengers Tower to unite them. The team has come together in various iterations in each other’s shows before, but for many fans, the reunion won’t be complete until they get a title card.
Hopefully, Marvel Studios has that high on the to-do list, but it’s hard to imagine there will be time. Right now, every storyline in the MCU is coalescing towards Avengers: Doomsday, where the multiverse makes all manner of crossovers possible. Many fans expect to see The Defenders pulled into this madness somehow, but all the moving parts here make it hard to predict. Daredevil: Born Again Season 3 began filming in March of this year, but it has no release date yet. It’s hard to imagine we’ll see that season before Doomsday debuts in December.
There are still other ways the whole team could come back together — Danny Rand could easily be roped into the story of Shang-Chi (Simu Liu), for example. With multi-dimensional travel, just about anything is on the table, but the Defenders reunion shouldn’t be rushed or shoehorned into another story as a B-plot. Fans have waited a long time to see these characters back together, and Marvel must make the time to do them justice. Until then, The Defenders and all of their individual series are streaming now on Disney+, along with Daredevil: Born Again.

In a rare occurrence, Lil Wayne hopped online to clear the air about his dating and career life. Recently, rumors circulated that the rapper was dating, and even engaged to, a 23-year-old influencer named Madi K. Amid those talks, Tunechi failed to show up for his scheduled concert in Maine. As the internet stirred with both topics, he revealed what’s really going on.

Is Lil Wayne Really Dating 23-Year-Old Madi K?
The video of Lil Wayne, reposted by The Shade Room, shows him admitting he doesn’t share much content, especially personal content. Then, he immediately jumped into clearing his dating status. “No, I’m not engaged, no,” Lil Wayne said, while shirtless with a guitar hanging from his shoulders. Tunechi said he had “a beautiful thing going with an amazing person.” However, he appeared to imply he ended the romantic connection due to the backlash their romance was receiving.
“…But obviously due to the validity of the temperature of today’s crazy world and culture, I considered I don’t want to be such a burden on such an amazing person. So we decided to part. It sucks”
To note, Wayne didn’t address his lover by name. Back in late May, Live Bitez reported that fans had tracked down and identified a woman (Madi K) seen on stage during one of Lil Wayne’s performances earlier this year. The post claimed that Wayne had proposed to her and that she was from Indiana. Then, this past weekend, Madi K shared a selfie of her and Tunechi on her Instagram Stories, calling him her [white] heart. She hasn’t yet addressed Lil Wayne’s breakup announcement.
Why Did The Rapper Miss His Maine Show?
Aside from clarifying that he’s not engaged, Lil Wayne revealed he was in Des Moines, Iowa. According to Complex, he was scheduled to perform in Bangor, Maine on June 30 — the opening night of his 20 Years of Carter Classics Tour. But fans who packed out the Maine Savings Amphitheater were left disappointed when at 11 p.m. it was reportedly announced the rapper wasn’t taking the stage, per Page Six.
“Listen, Bangor, Maine. I got to apologize to you personally again for real, for real. Sorry for missing that show the other night. Listen, I have epilepsy and I have seizures. Thank God I haven’t had a seizure in years, but seizures have triggers. The triggers to my seizures are bad migraines, I had a bad migraine that night. It was recommended that I don’t get in the air,” Lil Wayne said, admitting that he still tried to get on the plane.
Ultimately, he leaned into medical advice and chose not to get on the plane. The rapper revealed the show was rescheduled to July 28.
Lil Tunechi’s Last Relationship Ended With Abuse Allegations
A little over a year ago, Lil Wayne’s romantic life was tied to Denise Bidot. The pair had been dating on-and-off since 2020. In January 2021, they had seemingly broken up and later that year, rekindled. A year later, January 2022, she confirmed she was single again. Sometime between then and early 2025, Lil Wayne and Denise became a couple again.
In May 2025, she alleged that Wayne had broken up with her on Mother’s Day via text message and kicked her and her daughter out of his home. At the time, she claimed to be five weeks post-surgery from a mommy makeover. Bidot accused her ex-boyfriend of uprooting her life in New York City for nothing, alleging that he’s been both emotionally and physically abusive. Wayne did not address her comments.

What Do You Think Roomies?
Social media users are lighting up timelines with theories about what happened to Nolan Xavier Wells. The 18-year-old was last seen on a boating trip to Horn Island, Mississippi, on July 4. Photos circulating online seemingly suggest the Black teen was kicking it with an all-white friend group during his disappearance. Local police have not made any arrests or suggested foul play. However, the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department has confirmed a multi-agency search for Wells is underway.

What To Know About Nolan Xavier Wells’ Trip To Horn Island
As mentioned, the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department shared an updated press release via social media on Sunday. They affirmed that Nolan Xavier Wells is being considered missing. He’s described as 18, a Black male who weighs 180 pounds and stands 6 feet and 1 inch tall.
“Nolan was last seen on Horn Island [Mississippi] wearing blue, not black as previously mentioned, swim trunks, no shirt, and sunglasses,” the press release says.
Sheriff John Ledbetter reportedly said the last known sighting of Nolan alive was at 3 p.m. However, the department has not verified whether the teen is currently on Horn Island, per WLOX. The case is an active investigation.
Meanwhile, on social media, photos have circulated of Nolan Xavier Wells that include at least three other white males. When the sheriff’s department released day-of photos of Wells, they cropped them to exclude the white males. It’s unclear whether local police have questioned the other males pictured. An X-generated summary claims the “friends” returned to the mainland without him “assuming he caught another ride.” Allegedly, Nolan’s phone also turned up on the mainland.
Details About Search From Jackson County Sheriff’s Office
According to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department, the search efforts are being led by multiple agencies including the Department of Marine Resources, the Gulf Islands National Seashore, and the United States Coast Guard. Another agency that is helping with the search is the United Cajun Navy. A representative of the Cajun Navy gave some details about the search and could’ve happened to Nolan Xavier Wells in speaking to WLOX.
“There were some people that thought he might have wandered off to the middle of the island, maybe into that lake. We sent people up there today, and if he was barefoot, there’s no way he made it up there,” Brian Trascher said. “There’s cactuses and a lot of thorny brush. He would not have comfortably been able to make it to the middle of the island. He probably would’ve turned around and went to the beach.”
Black Social Media Users Are Sounding OFF About Incident
As the search for Nolan continues, more details have surfaced about his personal life. He formally played football at Ocean Springs High School and currently plays in the wide receiver position at Southwest Mississippi Community College.
Aside from details about the 18-year-old, social media is sounding off about what might’ve occurred to him. Black internet users, in particular, have presented debates about Black people being in all-white spaces or the “token friend” in all-white groups. One incident that has been referenced is the case of Tamla Horsford, a Black mother in her 40s who was found dead in the backyard of a Georgia home following an overnight sleepover with an all-white group. The DA ultimately declined to press charges in the case.
The sheer amount of times black people will not understand when you’re the token in the friend group you can die and none of your white friends will say they saw anything. https://t.co/vsOKSWMzRg

Here we go again. Black folks need to teach their kids early on to practice discernment when dealing with white folks.
