The entire summer movie season feels like it has been building toward a single event. Deadpool & Wolverine is headed to theaters on July 26, and promises to be a hilarious Deadpool movie and also a potential game-changer for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has now acquired 20th Century Fox’s catalog of characters.

The promotion for the movie is ramping up in the days leading up to the event, and a new trailer gives us another look at what the movie has up its sleeve. The promotional materials have leaned heavily into teasing Deadpool’s variants, as Deadpool and Wolverine are expected to spend some time traveling the multiverse in the new film. While there’s a female variant we likely won’t get to see until the movie itself, this latest trailer has revealed that one of Deadpool’s variants will be a little doggy that he carries around. The new trailer also features a sneak peak at Cowboy Deadpool, although once again we don’t get to see who will be playing him.

As you might expect, the trailer is also filled with various jokes and puns from the movie, some of which you may have heard before, and others that are new to this trailer. The folks at Disney are clearly in full-court press mode for this film, and the current tracking suggests the movie could open between $160 and $165 million. Of course, how much the movie actually makes will depend in part on reviews and word of mouth, but there’s certainly plenty of excitement about the return of both Ryan Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth, and Hugh Jackman’s Logan.

The movie will hit Netflix on July 25

It's been more than 25 years since we've seen Happy Gilmore, and Netflix is ready to bring him back. The first trailer for Happy Gilmore 2 checks in on the titular golf prodigy now that he's well into middle age, and is heavy on vibes but light on plot.

All we know for sure is that Happy feels a little intimidated by some of the pros who are golfing today, and that when we pick up with him, it's been a while since he touched a golf club. The trailer also gives us a glimpse at some cast members returning from the first film, including Julie Bowen, Christopher McDonald, and Ben Stiller, plus newcomers like Bad Bunny, Travis Kelce, and Sandler’s daughters Sadie and Sunny.

‘Tulsa King’ is coming back for a third season with another new showrunner
The series is one of the most successful shows in the history of Paramount+

The executives at Paramount have been pretty open about how much Tulsa King has meant for the company's TV success, so it's perhaps no surprise that the show is set to return for a third season. The show is already filming its third season in Atlanta and Oklahoma, and The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Dave Erickson will take over as the show's sole showrunner for the third season.

Erickson is also serving as showrunner on Mayor of Kingstown, another Taylor Sheridan series, and recently signed a multiyear overall deal with MTV Entertainment Studios. Terence Winter and Craig Zisk, who essentially split showrunning duties on the second season, with Winter serving as the writer and Zisk as the producer, don't seem to be returning for the next season.

The Academy also revealed that the awards would take air Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on ABC.

“The only reason I’m hosting the Oscars next year is that I want to hear Adrien Brody finish his speech,” said O’Brien in a press statement, referring to Brody's record-setting acceptance speech after winning Best Actor at this year's ceremony.
