We've got you covered with a curated roundup of the most exciting and noteworthy events from the world of entertainment.

1. Netflix Hosted TUDUM last weekend; Here are the Highlights

Did you watch TUDUM? If you didn’t get a chance, here’s what we’re looking forward to the most!

  • The Archies was announced at the event- a movie taking place in 1960s India, based off of the Riverdale/Archie realm.

  • Heartstopper, Bridgerton, Emily in Paris, Cobra Kai, Elite, Love is Blind, You, and other fan favorite shows released small teasers, including first look photos, episode titles, release dates, and more.

  • A new rendition of Avatar: The Last Airbender is coming (and it's live-action). And yes, the cast looks incredible.

  • Alia Bhatt fans- watch out for Heart of Stone, a new spy thriller film coming soon.


2. It's Cancer Season 

As a Cancer myself, I’m so ready for Cancer season. As we enter this time period, you may find yourself becoming more attuned with your emotions. Cancer season is a time to prioritize yourself and put in the work to take care of yourself. As astrology expert Imani Quinn told mindbodygreen, you'll want to "allow yourself to make mistakes, learn from them, and keep your boundaries in place when it feels necessary." Happy Cancer Season, and Happy Summer!

3. Zoey 102 Film Trailer Releases 

I vividly remember being invested in Zoey 101 a couple years after it first came out, given that I was only two years old in 2005. PCA was my dream school, and I still long for one of the mopeds they drive around. And here we are more than 15 years later with an all grown up Zoey, and Logan and Quinn getting married. Paramount Plus just released the new trailer for the film this week. Who’s ready for the return of the PCA squad?

4. Taylor Swift has added 42 more stops on her international segment of her ERAS tour 

If only she added 42 more stops on her US segment too. To our international Swifties, we hope you got your tickets because TSwizzle’s Eras Tour is coming soon to you! 

5. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani Teaser Released 

Karan Johar is back with, what it’s looking like right now, another big hit film, starring Ranveet Singh and Alia Bhatt. The romance drama has already been applauded by the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, so we can expect big things from Johar. Indian Express writes, “While the one-minute teaser doesn’t reveal anything about the plot, it shows the lavish world that Karan has created for his grand theatrical comeback. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani is the filmmaker’s first theatrical release since 2016’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.”

And, that’s all for this week! Don’t forget to come back next Friday for your Pop Culture ICYMI Recap.
