Since his breakout role as Burt Macklin, I mean, Andy Dwyer on Parks and Recreation, Chris Pratt has been one of the busiest stars in Hollywood. He was the face of two franchises, Jurassic World and Guardians of the Galaxy (which makes him the third highest-grossing actors of all-time), and a voice in two more, The Lego Movie and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
It’s become increasingly rare to find a non-franchise, non-pre-existing property in his filmography, but not impossible: The Tomorrow War is an original science-fiction film, a rarity these days. It’s also pretty good!
Could there be a sequel? Here’s everything we know about The Tomorrow War 2, including plot details and returning cast members.
Plot
The Tomorrow War begins in 2022, when time-traveling soldiers from 2051 interrupt a World Cup game with some bad news: mankind is doomed to lose a global war against a deadly alien species unless thousands of citizens from the present are transported forward in time to fight. One of those heroes is Dan Forester (played by Chris Pratt), who joins Charlie (Sam Richardson), Dorian (Edwin Hodge), Norah (Mary Lynn Rajskub), Cowan (Mike Mitchell), and a military scientist (Yvonne Strahovski) in the battle against the “white spikes.”
The Tomorrow War has a definitive ending, but since the movie was a huge hit streaming hit for Amazon (it was initially going to debut in theaters, but the pandemic messed up those plans), there’s been talks of a sequel.
In 2021, Deadlinereported that “discussions are in place to bring the whole creative gang back both in front of and behind the camera including director Chris McKay and screenwriter Zach Dean… Paramount is also involved in the sequel; the studio originally attached to distribute the first film theatrically.”
There’s been a few promising updates since then, including McKay confirming to Uproxx in 2023 that “there is a script coming.” More recently, Dean (who also penned The Gorge with Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller) told Comic Book that the script is “progressing.” Here’s more:
Dean also took a moment to praise star Chris Pratt, who is set to return in the follow-up. “One of the great things about Chris is it’s so easy to empathize and get into his character’s [head],” the writer said. “He’s so disarming in terms of his humor and he’s also really emotional as an actor.” Though Dean stated “family thematics” will continue to play a key role in the franchise, The Tomorrow War 2 takes things in a slightly different direction. “[I]t takes a very different version but of similar of ideas. Things that could have gone a darker way.”
If it’s not called The 2morrow War, what are we even doing here?
Cast
Not everyone from The Tomorrow War could return for the sequel since some of their characters, y’know, died, but it’s still worth running down the original film’s cast, led by Chris Pratt. There’s also Yvonne Strahovski, J.K. Simmons (pre-jacked Santa, but still pretty jacked), the always-delightful Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson (who should honestly be in everything), Edwin Hodge, Jasmine Mathews, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Keith Powers, Mary Lynn Rajskub, and Mike Mitchell. I think I speak for all Doughboys fans when I say: wow.
Release Date
Since The Tomorrow War 2 hasn’t even been officially announced, there’s no release date.
Trailer
One thing I like to do (because I clearly have too much free time) is read recent YouTube comments for movie trailers that came out years ago. Here’s one from five months ago for The Tomorrow War: “THE TOMORROW WAR is the ALIEN WAR.” Damn. Something to think about.
Every single week, our TV and film experts will list the most important ten streaming selections for you to pop into your queues. We’re not strictly operating upon reviews or accrued streaming clicks (although yes, we’ve scoured the streaming site charts) but, instead, upon those selections that are really worth noticing amid the churning sea of content. There’s a lot out there, after all, and your time is valuable.
10. G20 – Amazon MGM Studios movie streaming on Prime Video
When he’s not Homelander on The Boys, Antony Starr is getting his butt kicked by Viola Davis. At least, that’s what happened with Davis’ presidential character found herself as a target at the G20 summit. Starr was actually thrilled for the experience while adding on Instagram, “The signs were there all along…. I was gonna get my ass whupped. I’m glad it was you.” Then he added a “#blondesnothavingfun” hashtag. Poor Homie.
Hub Halloran (Kevin Bacon) received much more than he bargained for after that deal with the devil did not resolve as planned. Ideally, Amazon will announce a renewal so that the Lilith situation might receive resolution, but even if that doesn’t happen, the first season of this series drop kicks enough horror tropes to make this show a hellish ride worth taking. Bacon is also back in business soon with Sirens on Netflix, which will have the same sort of fun with Greek mythological references, so he’s doing just fine, thank you.
8. Companion – New Line Cinema film streaming on Max
Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid star in this twisted romance that explores what happens when the final girl of a horror movie might actually be a robot. The trailer wasn’t subtle about the potentially sadistic elements of this movie’s setup, but an endless series of rug pulls will keep people guessing. Thatcher went on record to assure viewers that the movie was both “really funny” and “really layered,” and although the movie didn’t do gangbusters at the box office, at least a swift arrival on streaming might build some loyalists.
Netflix is churning out romcom films like theaters in the 1990s, but instead of shelling out double digits at the multiplex, you can find comfort on your couch while watching a movie that probably would have starred Kate Hudson and an inexplicably shirtless Matthew McConaughey a few decades ago. Sofia Carson stars as Alex Rose, who finds herself on a self-discovery journey after the death of her mother (Connie Britton). She conditions the inheritance upon fulfilling the “life list” dreamed up by her teenage self. This ordeal includes choosing between dudes because, duh, it’s a romcom.
Well, this week’s finale episode promised some sort of army of heroes coming in the second season, so yeah, I think we’re gonna need more of Jon Bernthal’s The Punisher. Krysten Ritter has also made it known that she is down for more Jessica Jones, so perhaps we shall see more scarf-and-jean magic coming to Disney+. And I don’t think enough people have realized yet that Margarita Levieva has been catching a raw deal on series cancellations for years (that In From The Cold development still feels wrong), and finally, she’s on the train for a followup.
This wickedly fun animated adaptation proves that a sharp-dressed frontman rarely goes out of style. It doesn’t hurt that, in this case, the role is filled by a roguish, aesthetically-pleasing demon hunter who gallantly conquers high-octane action sequences while saving humanity with a flourish. Of course, a cliffhanger ending will be followed by more after Dante ended up on ice after being hauled away by Darkcom. Another successful video game adaptation is in the books, proving that the Hollywood powers that be are finally delivering the crowd pleasing goods (Minecraft, Fallout, The Last Of Us) by staying faithful to the source material.
A post-Landman Jon Hamm returns to his The Morning Show stomping grounds to throw off vague Don Draper vibes as a hedge funder whose personal and professional lives melt down. He reacts by stealing from his so-called friends in his affluent community, but he discovers that an even greater risk than thievery will be found within those acquaintances’ secret lives. Amanda Peet and Olivia Munn co-star in this show that’s already been renewed with James Marsden hopping into the second season cast.
The Testaments sequel series is currently in the works (also with Bruce Miller as showrunner) to extend Margaret Atwood’s tales of Gilead, but before that happens, we can consider why, exactly, anybody would choose to come back from Canada after escaping the show’s hellscape. Also, what the hell is Serena Joy plotting, if anything at all? Elisabeth Moss previously hinted that the relationship between June and Selena would be a large part of this season, and ideally, the both Commander Lawrence and Aunt Lydia will receive massive comeuppance before all is said and done.
Tom Hardy lovers are feasting with Havoc landing soon and the ongoing suspense on whether he will be back to frenemy-it-up with Tommy Shelby as Alfie Solomons in the Peaky Blinders movie. For now, however, it’s much more than a consolation prize to see Hardy as a fixer in Guy Ritchie’s newest TV series that also happens to co-star Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, and Paddy Considine. Talk of a second season is already happening after this show scored a successful debut in the land of Taylor Sheridan shows.
To celebrate the return of Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey’s return as Joel and Ellie, we asked a pressing question about the scariest zombies in popular culture. Personally, I’m going with the 28 Days Later rage-virus crowd, but a convincing argument could be made for the Romero’s lumbering yet relentless variety, too. This HBO series will officially persist for three seasons, and fingers are duly crossed that this season will conclude without giving Kaitlyn Dever too much stress about toxic fandom’s Abby obsession. Geez.
Yesterday (April 18), Tyla performed her final set during Coachella 2025 weekend two. To savor the moment, Tyla allowed attendees to join in on the vocal efforts. Unfortunately, one supporter went overboard. In a now-viral clip (viewable here), Tyla and a fan can be seen tussling over her microphone.
As Tyla sang her track “No.1,” a festivalgoer eagerly reached out to sing along. While Tyla held the microphone out to the fan, they were overcome with excitement. With a canned beverage in one hand and the microphone firmly grasped in the other, the festivalgoer sang part of her song “Water.” But when Tyla attempted to take the microphone back to move on, the attended seemingly would not let go. Eventually, security stepped in to stop the unintended game of tug of war.
Users online called out the attendee, writing: “This guy was not letting go off Tyla’s mic .”
Tyla reposted the video, writing: “Like damn .”
Seeing Tyla eventually found the awkward exchange humorous, supporters flooded her replied with jokes.
“Singing ‘Water’ while ‘No.1’ is clearly playing is killing me…he was just there for the vibes,” wrote one user on X.
Wale is known for many things–atop the list is recording artist. But fans of the “Blanco” rapper are also aware of his other entertainment passions which includes sneakers and wrestling.
For a decade, Wale has honored his love of wrestling with the annual event, WaleMania. Sadly, WaleMania is officially no more. Shortly after wrapping up WaleMania’s tenth anniversary at Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas’
The Linq Promenade, Wale announced on X (formerly Twitter) that it was the final installment.
“I hope everybody has a great time tonight,” he wrote. “This will be the final Walemania. Ten years lots of memories. Thank u to everybody who has showed up and showed out.”
When asked why he decided to end the yearly celebration of hip-hop and wrestling, Wale shared a brutally honest answer.
“[It] was a labor of love,” he replied to a user. “I’m not in love anymore.”
While many were blind sided by Wale’s decision. Wale claimed that writing had been on the wall for some time.
“Anybody who been paying attention knew this was inevitable,” he added. “This the last hurrah.”
Wale has not teased any other original programming to take its place. Instead, he confidently chucked up the deuces. Then in a separate post, Wale encouraged fans to “enjoy the weekend” as he promoted his latest single.
This August that will include a complete takeover at SummerSlam. Yesterday (April 18), the WWE revealed Cardi B as the official host of SummerSlam 2025.
“@iamcardib is hosting #SummerSlam live from @MetLifeStadium on August 2nd and 3rd ,” wrote the company on X (formerly Twitter).
In the announcement video (viewable here), Cardi B delivered a fiery veiled threat to all WWE superstars because she is willing to deliver the smack down if necessary.
“What’s up WWE Universe,” she said wearing a graphic tee honoring the late wrestler Eddie Guerrero. “Guess what? SummerSlam. MetLife. Two nights. And I will finally be hosting. And nobody better try me.”
This is a crossover event that has been a long time in the making. When the event revealed its new two-day spread, Cardi B joined champion Bianca Belair in the teaser video. Hell, she have even received shoutouts from other WWE superstars including Randy Orton.
The only thing left to see is if Cardi’s rap feuds have prepared her for vicious lines from WWE’s roster.
WWE’s SummerSlam 2025 is set to take place on on August 2nd and 3rd at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The presale is set for April 30. The public sale will follow on May 2. Find out more information here.

WHERE TO STAY
From poolside boutique hotels to retro-chic Airbnbs with desert mountain views, Palm Springs and the Indio Valley offer a wide range of stay options to match your vibe and budget. Want to be in the heart of the party scene? There are iconic hotels with on-site DJ sets and late-night lounges. Prefer something more low-key? Opt for a quiet desert oasis where you can recharge between sets under the stars.
Drift Palm Springs
DRIFT PALM SPRINGS
This hotel has quickly become a Palm Springs staple and one of our favorites for a sexy escape. It’s stylish, boho, and feels impeccably fresh and clean. The pool scene is not chaotic but definitely features an array of Hollywood cool kids and plenty of mingling. The restaurant is an absolute highlight — with clever and elevated riffs on Mexican classics.
Perhaps one of the ultimate perks of this property is how solid and spacious it feels. Rather than feeling like you’re on top of other guests, the desert-minimalist rooms and soundproofed walls make your sanctuary feel private and quiet. Definitely the perfect property for anyone trying to balance the chaos of festivals with some deeply relaxing downtime. That philosophy is underscored by the numerous sound healings and yoga sessions available on site.
One big note: Our hotel review series always mentions “bed game” — well these beds are impeccable. The sheets are delicate and soft to the touch, with no harsh bleach smells. The pillows are soft and supple — you slowly ease into them when you lay your head down.
The Onyx House gets everything right. You walk into the place and immediately feel 20% cooler. Clearly, it was created by someone with good taste. But as great as the design and layout are, those aspects aren’t the property’s biggest perk. Here’s what hit me the hardest during a recent stay:
Best Pool And Hot Tub Of Any Rental I’ve Ever Stayed In. This isn’t even up for debate. The pool gets up to 90 degrees (I didn’t figure this out until the morning I left, sadly) and the hot tub fits eight comfortably. Both are in-ground and incredibly sleek. They’re also both saltwater — meaning your skin doesn’t get dry and your eyes don’t water from excessive chlorine. Oh, and they have lighting systems for your night hangs!
A Very Cool Gathering Space. The main living room of the Onyx house is actually separated from the bedrooms and kitchen by a hallway. There you’ll find a massive TV linked to all the streaming apps, a very comfy couch, and even barn doors to open the space up. Does it feature a bunch of cool art and rustic ceramics? You’d better believe it.
A Yoga Platform. Every morning of my life, I wake up saying “I want to do breathwork! I want to do yoga!” But I almost never have time. I did both breathwork and yoga during my stay at the Onyx House because the space spoke to those sorts of pursuits but more importantly because I had room to practice them without distraction. The yoga platform is surrounded by desert and rocks and if you’re going to do some sun salutations I can’t think of a better place to do them than while watching the sun crest over the craggy hills.
Nature All Around. The past few years have seen a land grab in “J-Tree” as LA folks with tons of style buy up properties on the cheap, remodel them, and give them cool names. But as much as everyone wants to lay claim to being an “oasis,” I’ve rarely seen a property that is truly built into the hills in this way. Whereas many trips to the desert include driving to trailheads, at the Onyx House we just walked straight up into the wilderness from the backyard. It was beautiful and made the home feel incredibly private.
Big Hotel Energy. The Onyx House is not one of those “clean every dish, strip the beds, and mop the floors” type rentals that everyone (rightfully) hates. This property is refined and operates much more like a true hotel. Check-in was easy, check-out was easier, and the property was beautifully appointed. I didn’t feel like I was in someone’s bedroom — I felt like I was at a hotel. Except better because we were the only guests.
This is the perfect property for that friend who likes to do stuff. Like… a lot of stuff. And that’s why we love it so much. The features golf, tennis, pickle ball, a spa, an arcade… and not the “we’re just doing this to say we have it” version of those amenities either. These grounds are absolutely dialed. And immense — with multiple pools and on-site restaurants.
Seriously, look at this spot:
JW Marriott
The rooms are well appointed and suites have sexy-as-hell tubs with a giant window out to the bed. Meaning that the sexiness rating of this hotel is very high. Especially when you take in all the opportunities for relaxation that are availible — from lounging poolside to spending a long day in the world class spa.
Steve Bramucci
If you like a little room to move, tons of activities, and an oasis vibe, this is your spot. Folks needing to tap in with work will love the coworking space in the lobby!
This house is really… well, to be honest, it’s what people fantasize about when they plan a Joshua Tree weekend. It’s ultra clean, very minimalist, and almost impossibly sexy. A sister property to the Onyx House, this B&B is even more stylish (and spacious). You are plopped right in the middle of the desert with views in every direction. If you do decide to venture off property, coffee is close and Joshua Tree National Park is just a few miles away.
The highlights:
Heated Saltwater Ozone Pool
Saltwater Ozone Hot Tub
Yoga and Ceremony Room with walls that can be fully pushed open.
3 Bedrooms plus a 2nd living space with a sofa bed.
In-ceiling Sonos surround sound speakers throughout the house.
When I stayed, we ate under the stars every night and swam in the pool deep into the night. The property was created with immense care, and I can’t say enough about how deeply that translates into the design. Like the Onyx house, there’s almost no plastic in sight. It’s really a spectacular thing. Moreover, no expenses were spared. Sometimes you rent a really nice house and everything in it is the “rental version” (read: super cheap). But here everything is dialed.
Our highest recommendation for a sexy desert retreat.
After the dust, the dancing, and the all-night sets, a little decompression is essential. Luckily, Palm Springs knows how to slow things down just as well as it knows how to party. Whether you’re nursing a post-festival haze or just craving a bit of peace and quiet, the desert offers plenty of mellow ways to recharge.
The Spa at Séc-he
THE SPA AT SÉC-HE
As soon as you walk in The Spa at Séc-he, it’s clear that every aspect of the space was thought through in great detail. From the design elements honoring the history and culture of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, the circular layout of this massive wellness center, the unique, one-of-a-kind massage tables, the decor of the waiting rooms — everything has a story, a reason for being, and an in-depth explanation.
On top of that, Séc-he is truly an epicenter for all of your wellness needs. Not only do they offer every type of massage therapy you can imagine (the list is longer than the Cheesecake Factory menu), but with a “Taking of the Waters Day-Pass,” one can easily spend an entire day taking advantage of the spa’s many amenities and still walk away as relaxed as ever.
The pass allows access to some things that you’ve seen at most spas—access to a steam and sauna room, cold plunge, fitness center, pool, and hot tub access, relaxing common areas, and grooming amenities. But even these offerings are far from typical. The steam room has eucalyptus for promoting skin health and improving your respiratory wellness while acting as a natural stimulant to re-energize you. The sauna includes menthol inhalation, which is known to provide symptomatic relief for upper airway congestion and reduces capsaicin cough sensitivity. The showers are equipped with aromatherapy steam and vitamin C-infused water. The bright smell and feel of this water was so divine, I took three showers during my day visiting this spa.
Not for nothing, but if you want to see famous people at leisure during Coachella… this is the spot. That said, they’re here to relax — let them be.
Last weekend, Lady Gaga’s headlining performance during weekend one of Coachella 2025 earned high praise from festivalgoers, at-home viewers, and critics alike. So, yesterday (April 18) supporters of the “Abracadabra” singer’s expected nothing less than a superb showing.
While Lady Gaga hit all the right notes, some of them couldn’t quiet be heard due to a few disruptive technical issues. As Lady Gaga belted out her chart-topping tunes, her microphone malfunctioned (viewable here). Although the backing track and other supporting vocal continued to play, Gaga’s voice was notable absent. Initially, users online believed it was an issue with the festival’s livestream. However, Lady Gaga confirmed the audio blips with witty response onstage (viewable here).
“I’m sorry my mic was broken for a second,” she said. “At least you know I sing live. And I guess all we can do is our best. I’ve definitely given my best to you tonight.”
Gaga’s light-hearted remark immediately won the crowd over. Across social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), users applauded Gaga’s for powering through the issues.
During an interview with Uproxx’s senior pop culture editor, Josh Kurp, Gaga gushed about playing Coachella.
“I genuinely don’t want to give anything away about Coachella,” she said. “I know that is heartless of me, in a way, but I could honestly cry on the phone with you just thinking about how excited I am to do this show, and I want it to be a total surprise, and want everyone to have as much fun as possible.”
So come hell, high water, or technical issues Lady Gaga was determined to put on a show for her Little Monsters (super fans).
The Christmas holiday has long since passed. But it appears to be at the top of Key Glock’s mind. Yesterday (April 18), the “I Be” rapper showed off stepped back into his holiday spirit for his new Glockaveli track.
On his latest single, “The Grinch,” Key Glock demonstrates just how emotionally cold he can be. Just with the beloved fictional character, Glock embraces the perceived power that comes along with a show of brute force.
“I been runnin’ wild since a jit / Grandma never raised a b*tch / Jumped off the porch, picked up a stick / Fourteen, turned into the Grinch / You must ain’t heard, I’ll take your sh*t / Nah-nah, Glizock took your b*tch / P*ssy-ass n**** better play with his clit / I don’t know what you thought, but that ain’t this,” he raps.
While fans are eagerly awaiting Key Glock’s rumored posthumous collaborative album with the late Young Dolph, Glockaveli is a suitable alternative. So far, Glock has shared three tracks from the upcoming project, “No Sweat,” “3AM In ToKEYo,” and now “The Grinch,” with each record being more fiery than the next.
Listen to Key Glock’s new track “The Grinch” above.
Glockaveli is out 5/2 via Paper Route Empire/Republic. Find more information here.
In a few short weeks, Ekkstacy’s studio album, Forever, will be made available on streaming platform. Shortly after that, the “Seventeen” musician has string of supporting summer tour dates. For now, Ekkstacy is taking a moment to appreciate the downtime before promotional chaos ensues.
Yesterday (April 18), Ekkstacy stepped out of his slice of solitude to share another slice of Forever with supporters. If the quiet before a storm had a soundtrack, it would be Ekkstacy’s latest single “Head In The Clouds.”
On the record, Ekkstacy leaned into his sonic shoegaze influences while simultaneously making as he refers to it an “atmospheric rock anthem” for today’s generation of indie lovers.
Although limited on the lyrical front, what “Head In The Cloud” does have is a deeply provoking message of hopeless romance. “With your head in the clouds / You’re looking down on me / You’re not making a sound / Ya you’re not allowed to speak / You’re like the wind passing / That’s what I think / Yet I remember us laughing / Just last week / With your head in the clouds,” Ekkstacy sings.
For the visual, directed Gilbert Trejo and cinematographer Vik Grossling tethered Ekkstacy’s emotional vulnerability with the track’s instrumental nonconfirmative to craft a grand daydream only fit for the rocker’s imagination.
Watch Ekkstacy’s official music video for “Head In The Clouds” above.
Forever is out 5/16 via UnitedMasters. Find more information here.
Apple TV+’s feel-good comedy supply is clearly a priority for them. Despite the odds, Ted Lasso will be back for a fourth season and more biscuits with the boss. Shrinking is still humming along with a third season in the works, and Seth Rogen has been happy to add bawdiness to the equation with The Studio and Platonic. How will a golf-focused comedy series fare on the tech giant’s streaming service? We will soon find out.
Owen Wilson, who managed expository miracles on Disney+’s Loki, is leading a series about a former pro golfer attempting to vicariously revive his mojo. Let’s take a swing at what to expect from Stick.
Plot
Apple TV+
Owen Wilson portays a washed-up pro-golfer, Pryce Cahill, who is also down on his personal-life luck after being out of the game for two decades. The series, created by Jason Keller (Ford v Ferrari), pairs Pryce with an up-and-comer, Santi (Peter Dager of Insidious: The Red Door), who has his own issues off the golf course. Wilson is also executive producing, and a hat-less Timothy Olyphant appears as a mysterious, well-dressed golfer ahead of his many upcoming streaming stints (which include Lucky, Havoc, and Alien: Earth).
Apple TV+
Apple TV+ describes the series as “a heartfelt, feel-good comedy about a found family and their relationships set within the world of golf as it has never been shown before.” With any luck, Wilson’s Pryce will be able to overcome “the collapse of his marriage and getting fired from his job at an Indiana sporting goods store” to “hedge his bets, and future, entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi.” From every indication, this looks like a breezy comedy series that won’t encourage endless theorizing like, say, Apple TV+’s Severance. Both types of shows have a time and place, but relaxation and laughs are sorely needed these days, and this show will oblige.
Stick also features a very funny supporting cast (as detailed below) and many familiar faces from the PGA and broadcasting worlds.
Cast
Apple TV+
The ensemble cast includes not only Wilson, Dager, and and Olyphant but also Judy Greer, Marc Maron, Mariana Treviño, and Lilli Kay. Expect PGA cameos from Max Homa, Keegan Bradley, Max Homa, Wyndham Clark, and Collin Morikawa along with broadcasters Trevor Immelman and Jim Nantz.
Release Date
Apple TV+
Stick premieres on June 4 with three episodes and weekly installments until July 23.
