Shawn Mendes is back.

On July 27, 2022, the Canadian pop star canceled his Wonder tour and cited a need to “ground myself and come back stronger.” On Wednesday, July 31, Mendes was ready to come back stronger — announcing Shawn, his forthcoming album due out on October 18. “Why Why Why” and “Isn’t That Enough” will be released as singles on August 8.

In case there were any doubt that Mendes’ announcement faucet is fully flowing again, he revealed a slew of intimate theater concerts.

On Thursday, August 1, Mendes posted a video captioned, “For My Friends & Family. We’re back.” The 64-second visual shows Mendes’ silhouette as he performs an acoustic, emotional song. Eventually, the screen reads, “SHAWN MENDES Performing Shawn The Album Live For Friends And Family Only.”

“Wanted the first shows back to be special & to play this album live for you in the places we recorded it,” Mendes wrote on his Instagram Story. “I’ve never played an album top to bottom before, but it’s already one of my favorite shows I’ve ever rehearsed. I love you guys, the band and I can’t wait to see you.”

How To Get Tickets To Shawn Mendes’ Shawn Theater Shows

It’s billed as friends and family only, so Mendes must consider fans as friends. According to Mendes’ official website, “To help tickets get into the hands of fans — not scalpers and bots — a very limited number of tickets will be made available for purchase via a ticket request system powered by Seated.” Mendes’ first Shawn show is scheduled for Bearsville Theater in Woodstock, New York on August 8, and ticket requests close on Thursday, August 1, at 11:59 p.m. ET. Tickets start at $98 plus $21.50 in fees. The random selection will occur on Friday, August 2, at noon ET.

Rules differ for Mendes’ show at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London on August 13. As per his website, UK fans will need to pre-order Shawn from his UK store before Monday, August 5, at 10 a.m. local time “to get exclusive access to a unique pre-sale link that will provide you a chance to buy tickets.”

Mendes’ subsequent Shawn concerts at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee on October 14, Brooklyn Paramount Theater in Brooklyn, New York on October 18, The Ford in Los Angeles, California on October 22, and Paramount Theatre in Seattle, Washington on October 24 will follow the same guidelines as the initial Woodstock show, but the registration and random selection dates vary.

When Will ‘Squid Game’ Season 2 Premiere?

squidgame 2 netflix
Netflix

In 2021, Squid Game quickly became Netflix’s biggest hit, so of course they are pulling out all the stops for the second season. The only thing that would make it even more exciting is if they decided to actually hold a real competition, but we know how that would go down. So let’s just stick to the fictional show, shall we?!

Season two of Squid Game was announced shortly after the first season, and now Netflix has finally given a massive update for fans of the mega-popular series. The second season will debut on Netflix on December 26th, and a third and final season will drop in 2025. The streamer shared a heartfelt letter from writer and EP Hwang Dong-hyuk:

It’s been almost three years since Season 1 was met with incredible response around the world and many unimaginable events took place. I am beyond excited to be writing this letter to announce the date for Season 2 and share the news of Season 3, the final season. On the first day we began shooting Season 2, I remember thinking, “Wow, I can’t believe I’m back in the world of Squid Game.” It almost felt surreal. I wonder how it will feel for you to be back in Squid Game after three years, as well.

Seong Gi-hun who vowed revenge at the end of Season 1 returns and joins the game again.
Will he succeed in getting his revenge? Front Man doesn’t seem to be an easy opponent this time either.
The fierce clash between their two worlds will continue into the series finale with Season 3, which will be brought to you next year.

It’s unclear how many episodes will be in season two, but fans will have a third season to look forward to shortly after. This is an interested move for Netflix, who has previously been utilizing the two part release cycle in the hopes of keeping up the momentum.

Season two will pick up where season one left off after Gi-hun won the bloody violent games. But for season two, he is pulling a Jack Shepard move and looking to get back into the games in order to stop it. Here is the official synopsis:

Three years after winning Squid Game, Player 456 remains determined to find the people behind the game and put an end to their vicious sport. Using this fortune to fund his search, Gi-hun starts with the most obvious of places: look for the man in a sharp suit playing ddakji in the subway. But when his efforts finally yield results, the path toward taking down the organization proves to be deadlier than he imagined: to end the game, he needs to re-enter it

Along with the release date and plot, Netflix also dropped a new teaser for the season, featuring everyone’s favorite Red Light, Green Light girlie:

Season two of Squid Game premieres on December 26th.

It Sure Sounds Like The ‘Cobra Kai’ Showrunners Are Setting Up Another ‘The Karate Kid’ Spin Off

Cobra Kai Season 5
Netflix

Netflix is doing the three-part release thing with the final Cobra Kai season, which will air its series finale shortly before the next The Karate Kid movie starring Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan. The Netflix series’ showrunners (Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald) are not involved with that film (at least, as far as any party has disclosed), but they do hope to extend more legs of the franchise with further series spin offs.

Of course, numerous hypotheticals exist for offshoots, including Robby and Miguel ^^^ opening a dojo together, Hawk opening a tattoo parlor or hair-styling salon, or perhaps Tory’s karate-adjacent story heading into true dramatic territory. Also, why did Cobra Kai‘s heightened reality head take a left turn with that suspiciously undiscovered box of Miyagi memorabilia surfacing out the blue? Yep, that box could be a clue, via Mr. Schlossberg:

“It opens up all these questions about Mr. Miyagi and what his life was like, and that’s been something we’ve been wanting to do for a while. We’ve talked to Robert Mark Kamen, the writer of the original Karate Kid who based this whole movie off his sensei who studied Okinawan karate; we’ve been talking about all this Miyagi backstory with him, which helped us with season six stuff. Now that we’re done, we can actually start getting into this stuff..

Man, casting a young Mr. Miyagi will be a tough process with generations of fans paying attention to results. Of course, Schlossberg was careful to express that this wasn’t a done deal yet, and they were currently focused on editing the final Cobra Kai episodes, but a few months ago, Heald did tell Collider that “[w]e talk about contemporary spin-offs, we talk about spin-offs that take place 80 or 90 years ago, and we continue to look to the future and the fandom and our partners at Sony and Netflix.”

In other words, Cobra Kai will truly never die, and it sounds like further announcements will eventually arrive, but first, the next karate-soap opera episodes are scheduled for November 15.

What To Watch: Our Picks For The TV Shows And Movies We Think You Should Stream This Week

what_to_watch_apes(1024x450)
20th Century Studios/Merle Cooper

Each week our staff of film and television experts surveys the entertainment landscape to select the ten best new/newish shows available for you to stream at home. We put a lot of thought into our selections, and our debates on what to include and what not to include can sometimes get a little heated and feelings may get hurt, but so be it, this is an important service for you, our readers. With that said, here are our selections for this week.

15. Presumed Innocent (Apple TV Plus)

Apple TV+

Presumed Innocent is guilty… of having an all-star collection of talent! Created by David E. Kelley and produced by Gracie Abrams‘ somewhat famous father, the legal thriller stars Jake Gyllenhaal as a chief deputy prosecutor who is suspected of murder. Per Apple TV Plus: “The series explores obsession, sex, politics, and the power and limits of love, as the accused fights to hold his family and marriage together.” Fun fact: Gyllenhaal’s character was played by Harrison Ford in the 1990 movie of the same name.

Watch it on Apple TV Plus

14. House of the Dragon (Max)

HBO/Max/WBD

Before House of the Dragon premiered, I was concerned that it would be nothing more than a shameless extension of the Game of Thrones brand. A DLC to check out but not engage with. Those fears have been unfounded. House of the Dragon quickly proved itself a worthy successor to Thrones (which, disappointing finale aside, is still one of the best shows of the 2010s). It exists on its own terms; it’s possible to enjoy the high-budget soap opera without prior knowledge of Westeros. House of the Dragon won’t be the monoculture behemoth that Game of Thrones was. No show will anymore. But it doesn’t need to be. House of the Dragon is doing just fine out of Game of Thrones’ dragon-shaped shadow (you can read our review here).

Watch it on Max

13. My Lady Jane (Prime Video)

prime video

Meet your summer TV obsession. My Lady Jane is a “radical retelling” of the life of Lady Jane Grey, who was the queen of England for nine days in 1553. She was executed soon after. But what if none of that happened? My Lady Jane, which stars Emily Bader in the title role, is “an epic tale of true love and high adventure, where the damsel in distress saves herself, her true love, and then the Kingdom.” Also, shape shifters (with some Buffy thrown in there, too).

Watch it on Prime Video

12. Sunny (Apple TV Plus)

apple tv plus

Vulture recently pointed out that Rashida Jones has never hosted Saturday Night Live despite a) being friends with a lot of SNL folks, and b) she has the comedic chops. The campaign to get Rashida Jones in Studio 8H (with musical guest Vampire Weekend?) begins… as soon as I finish watching Sunny. The Apple TV+ series stars the Parks and Rec actress as Suzie, an American living in Japan who is gifted a robot following the disappearance of her husband and son. Together, they attempt to find out what happened to her family.

Watch it on Apple TV Plus

11. Sausage Party: Foodtopia (Prime Video)

sony

Sausage Party, the 2016 movie that was the highest-grossing R-rated animated film of all-time until Demon Slayer: Mugen Train came along, has been reheated as a streaming series. Prime Video’s proudly vulgar Sausage Party: Foodtopia is set after the events of the movie, with Frank, Brenda, Barry, and Sammy, the characters voiced by Seth Rogen, Kristen Wiig, Michael Cera, and Edward Norton, respectively, attempting to build their own society. The rest of the voice cast includes Will Forte, Sam Richardson, Yassir Lester, and Natasha Rothwell. Expect lots of food puns and orgies.

Watch it on Prime Video

10. Abigail (Peacock)

Abigail Vampire
Universal Pictures

Longlegs this, Longlegs that. But don’t forget about another 2024 horror movie gem: Abigail. The film follows a group of kidnappers — played by Melissa Barrera, Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton, Will Catlett, Kevin Durand, and Angus Cloud (in one of his final roles) — who are trapped in a house with a ballerina vampire, as one does. Abigail leans on the comedy more than the horror, and it’s a blast. Why isn’t Kathryn Newton in everything? She really should be.

Watch it on Peacock

9. Wicked Little Letters (Netflix)

StudioCanal

A British mystery-comedy starring Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley? Yeah, that’ll do. Wicked Little Letters is about an English seaside town in the 1920s that gets upended by scandalous mail (or whatever they call it there). A boisterous Irish migrant named Rose (Buckley) is charged with the crime, but as the townspeople, including buttoned-up local Edith (Colman) do their own investigation, “they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.” The trailer is very charming.

Watch it on Netflix

8. Love Lies Bleeding (Max)

Love Lies Bleeding
A24

Here’s one for the freaks (I’m one of you). Rose Glass’ Love Lies Bleeding can briefly be described as a love story between a gym manager (Kristen Stewart) and a bodybuilder (Katy O’Brian), but it’s much more than that. It’s also about organized crime, steroids, and Ed Harris in full creep mode. Love Lies Bleeding has a daring ending that needs to be seen to be believed.

Watch it on Max

7. Cobra Kai (Netflix)

netflix

What Netflix’s Cobra Kai has pulled off over the years is nothing less than magical. The underdog spin off (which revived a franchise that celebrates underdogs) has accomplished what few TV shows or movies could have ever hoped for: successfully rebooting a 1980s entity while appealing to Gen Z to an even greater degree than capturing the original The Karate Kid audience. (You can read the full review here.)

Watch it on Netflix

6. Time Bandits (Apple TV Plus)

apple tv plus

Based on the Terry Gilliam movie of the same name, Time Bandits is about a lonely 11-year-old boy who joins a group of time-traveling thieves played by, among others, Lisa Kudrow. The fantasy-adventure series is created by Jemaine Clement (Flight of the Conchords), Iain Morris (The Inbetweeners), and Taika Waititi, who tends to do his best work — What We Do in the Shadows and Reservation Dogs — in a behind-the-scenes capacity.

Watch it on Apple TV Plus

5. Women In Blue (Apple TV Plus)

apple tv plus

Apple TV Plus’s Women in Blue is set in 1971 and follows “four women who defy the ultraconservative norms of the time and join Mexico’s first female police force, only to discover that their squad is a publicity stunt to distract the media from a brutal serial killer.” Created by Fernando Rovzar and Pablo Aramendi, the unsettling 10-episode drama stars Bárbara Mori, Ximena Sariñana, Natalia Téllez, Amorita Rasgado, Miguel Rodarte, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Christian Tappan, and Horacio García Rojas.

Watch it on Apple TV Plus

4. The Decameron (Netflix)

netflix

Tony Hale has a pretty solid track record when it comes to comedies. Buster in Arrested Development, Gary in Veep, FORKY in Toy Story 4 (do not hold Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip against him). Next up is The Decameron, which is like if The White Lotus took place during the bubonic plague pandemic (or as actress Jessica Plummer described it, “Love Island, but back in the day”). The social satire is getting rave reviews for being “the best apocalyptic ensemble comedy since Clue.” Grab your juice and start watching.

Watch it on Netflix

3. Batman: Caped Crusader (Prime Video)

prime video

A Batman animated series? It’ll never work. Prime Video’s Batman: Caped Crusader comes from creator Bruce Timm, one of the creative minds behind arguably the best-ever screen adaptation of the Dark Knight: Batman: The Animated Series. The new series has been described as “everything that Bruce Timm wanted to do in the original series but because it ran on a kid’s channel, he wasn’t able to do it,” and stars Hamish Linklater as Batman, Jamie Chung as Harley Quinn, Diedrich Bader as Two-Face, Christina Ricci as Catwoman, and in a fun bit of casting, Minnie Driver as Penguin.

Watch it on Prime Video

2. Futurama (Hulu)

hulu

Last season on Futurama, Fry, Leela, Bender, & Co. took on an Amazon-like company formed by Mom; caught a rage virus; and got turned into toys (that was a weird one). In season 12 (which is technically the second half of season eight if you go by production order, but let’s stick with Hulu’s season designations for the sake of ease), the gang “embarks on mind-bending adventures involving birthday party games to the death, the secrets of Bender’s ancestral robot village, A.I. friends (and enemies), impossibly cute beanbags, and the true 5 million-year-old story behind the consciousness-altering substance known as coffee.” Guest stars include Danny Trejo, Cara Delevingne, and Kyle Maclachlan. (Read more about the new season here.)

Watch it on hulu

1. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (Hulu)

20th Century Studios

A while back, I remember seeing someone online make the case for Planet of the Apes as the most consistently good movie franchise. That’s overstating things (how soon we forget Ape Lincoln?), but there are more keepers than stinkers in the series, especially among the recent films. Surprise box office hit Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes needed to justify its existence following the strong conclusion to the Caesar trilogy — and it did. The 10th overall Planet of the Apes features typically CGI work and a stirring story about determination. You won’t hate every ape you see, from chimpan-A to chimpan-Z.

    Gunther Is Taking Over WWE By Staying True To Himself

    114_KOTR_05252024DG_23905--887fe6fb544ba9d055363a4f8ad2bdb9
    WWE

    As Gunther traveled Austria perfecting his craft in professional wrestling, the only thing he dreamed of was making a living. The definition of a “professional wrestler” in stature, the only thing he was focused on was being the best wrestler he could be.

    “I guess that approach took me to all those places I’ve been so far. And that might be one of the reasons I’m in the situation I am right now. Everything that happens right now in my career is just a cherry on top,” Gunther tells Uproxx Sports.

    “But now since I’m here, I’m here for everything. I want to make the most out of everything I am presented.”

    The next step in his journey falls on Saturday night at the Cleveland Browns Stadium at SummerSlam, when he takes part in a marquee title match against Damian Priest for the World Heavyweight Championship.

    An opportunity to reach the top of the mountain doesn’t happen for everyone. But more importantly, Gunther is proud of the way he’s done it. Across his stints across different promotions, he’s made it through the various stages of his career embodying who he wanted to be in the ring.

    “And now I’m sitting here going into SummerSlam for a big title match. In my opinion, I’m still the same guy I was on the Indies when it comes to my style and approach for matches,” Gunther continues. “In WWE or over the course of your career, you learn and you get better. But I think at the core, I’m exactly the person I always wanted to be.”

    Gunther’s steady rise in WWE is no surprise to fans who have followed his career. Boasting a 6’4” frame, a physical presence in the ring, and chest slaps that bring a viral element to his matches, Gunther’s catalog of great matches is vast. Buzz has followed him throughout his journey, but he feels his match against Sheamus at Clash at the Castle was a turning point in his WWE career.

    “It was the first time I had the chance to really show my full potential. And I think that was a very important milestone for me in WWE,” Gunther says.

    Gunther prides himself on his ability to mesh with just about anyone in the ring. He can tear the house down with guys his size, like his WrestleMania triple threat match against Sheamus and Drew McIntyre. He can also flex his style to put on memorable performances against the likes of Pete Dunne, Ilja Dragunov, Chad Gable, and Sami Zayn.

    “My approach is like, a different opponent has a different style, and so I need to approach the matches differently to make them special on their own. So I don’t really have a preference (between hard hitting big guys and light heavyweights),” Gunther continues.

    Since joining the main roster, Gunther’s impact was felt almost immediately. He won the Intercontinental Championship just two months into his arrival, and held the belt for an unprecedented 666 days, a record for holding the title.

    With immense success holding that championship, Gunther was ready to move on. He felt like he’d proved himself at that level and was ready to make the leap into the main event scene.

    “Everything good takes a bit,” Gunther says.

    Following his WrestleMania 40 loss to Zayn, Gunther’s incremental rise on the roster has been clear. He won King of the Ring at King and Queen of the Ring to earn a world title shot. Initially winning the tournament, Gunther made waves by not placing the crown on top of his head. His thoughts on that are twofold.

    “First of all, it didn’t fit me. It was a little bit too big. Secondly, I treat it as a trophy, a prize that I won. So that’s how I carried it. I didn’t win that to make it my personality,” Gunther says.

    Saturday offers Gunther his first real shot at heavyweight gold. It would be the biggest success of his career to date. The opportunity is once in a lifetime in its own right, but with Bash in Berlin at the end of August, an opportunity to return to Germany as champion would line up perfectly for the rising star.

    “I wrestled all over Germany for many years of my career, and maybe the most defining years in my career. It would be a very big full circle moment, but that’s step two. That’s at the end of August,” Gunther says.

    “At the end of this week, I’m wrestling Damian Priest at SummerSlam and that’s what my focus is right now.”

    Foxing Announce A New Self-Titled Album With The Sprawling 8-Minute Single ‘Greyhound’

    Yesterday (July 31), Foxing held a livestreamed press conference. The whole thing was partially a bit, as is made clear when the video comedically cuts to a shot of the reporters that were invited to the event, but it’s just a room of empty chairs reserved for various publications. (On behalf of Uproxx, I apologize for the no-show and for leaving our reserved seat empty, but we appreciate the invitation nonetheless. In our defense, Animal Planet didn’t show up either.)

    There was something real here, though, as the press conference did actually serve to announce a new album from Foxing, titled Foxing. A video for the new 8-minute song “Greyhound” was also filmed at the event, and the band has shared that visual today.

    A press release notes of the album, “There is a tension at the core of Foxing, an album that balances hopefulness and nihilism, the pastoral with the tumultuous. Whether oscillating between visceral noise rock and intimate bedroom cassette experiments on opener ‘Secret History’ or cruising at the edge of collapse on ‘Barking,’ the dramatic dynamics that have long permeated Foxing’s music have never felt so extreme.” It also describes the project as “a document of a band finding comfort in their own chaos.”

    Watch the “Greyhound” video above. Below, find the Foxing cover art and tracklist, along with the band’s upcoming tour dates.

    Cardi B Has Reportedly Filed For Divorce From Offset

    Cardi B‘s on-again, off-again relationship with Offset is reportedly off again. This time possibly for good.

    According to Page Six, Cardi B filed for divorce from her husband of seven years on Wednesday. “They’ve grown apart,” an insider claimed. “That’s what drove her to this decision more than anything else. This is something she wants to do.”

    The source added that the alleged dissolution of the relationship isn’t a surprise, as “they both have been trying to figure out what their future looks like for a while now. It’s not something that happened overnight… They’ve both been on the same page. There wasn’t [pushback]. They’ve grown apart and that feeling has gotten stronger overtime. It’s become unavoidable.”

    Cardi B is hoping to obtain “primary custody” of her and Offset’s two children.

    Earlier this week, the “Bongos” rapper shut down rumors that she could no longer afford the martial mansion she shares with her (ex-?)husband. “LMAOOO,” she wrote. “You bum b*tches wish… Me and Offset bought that house in 2019 for 5 million now it’s worth 7. Check the Atlanta market. And no, we not selling it… and if I ever sold it I would just sell my part to Offset since he loves Atlanta. Throwing salt on my home? Hating bad.”
