Prime Video released the full trailer for the fifth and final season of The Boys on March 5–6, 2026, setting up an apocalyptic showdown that will stream April 8 with two episodes and conclude with a series finale on May 20. The trailer shows Antony Starr’s Homelander pursuing V1, the original Compound V, in a bid for immortality and even appears seated in the Oval Office as a de facto ruler. Karl Urban’s Billy Butcher returns, now exhibiting supe-like strength and carrying a supe-specific virus he plans to deploy to kill all Supes. Jensen Ackles’ Soldier Boy is revived and aligned with Homelander, while characters from the Gen V spinoff (Jaz Sinclair, London Thor) appear alongside Starlight, Hughie and others. The teaser also features an on-screen reunion of Supernatural alumni Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins. The season is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television, with showrunner Eric Kripke overseeing the finale and an expanded franchise that includes Gen V and announced prequels.

Actress Shannon Elizabeth, 52, has launched an OnlyFans account this week as she publicly repositions her career and personal life. In interviews with People and other outlets published April 16–17, 2026, the American Pie and Scary Movie alum said she chose the subscription platform to “connect directly with my audience, create on my own terms, and just be free,” and to show “a more sexy side no one has seen.” Multiple outlets reported she quietly filed for divorce from husband Simon Borchert days before the OnlyFans debut; a later statement to Us Weekly said she has been separated since September and that only formalities remain. Elizabeth, who lives largely in South Africa and runs the Shannon Elizabeth Foundation for wildlife conservation, has signalled the new chapter will include behind‑the‑scenes and exclusive content rather than a return to mainstream Hollywood projects. The announcement has drawn wide coverage and social media reaction as legacy entertainers increasingly turn to direct‑to‑fan platforms.

Victoria Beckham has publicly addressed the ongoing rift with her eldest son for the first time, in an interview with WSJ Magazine published on April 16, 2026. Without naming him, the former Spice Girl and fashion designer said she and husband Sir David Beckham “love our children so much” and have “always tried to be the best parents that we can be,” adding that their priority has been to protect their family during more than 30 years in the public eye. The comments follow a lengthy January Instagram statement by Brooklyn Peltz Beckham accusing his parents of trying to “ruin” his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz Beckham and of prioritising “Brand Beckham.” Brooklyn alleged episodes including a disputed wedding dance, a last-minute withdrawal from making a bridal dress, and pressure to sign away rights to his name. David Beckham previously commented on social media’s power in January; outlets report Victoria was later seen celebrating her 52nd birthday in Miami as coverage intensified.

At CinemaCon in Las Vegas on April 16-17, 2026, Marvel Studios premiered the first full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday to an audience of theatre owners. Robert Downey Jr. was revealed in full as Doctor Doom and shared the stage with returning Chris Evans, while Kevin Feige and directors Anthony and Joe Russo introduced extended footage that interweaves Avengers, X‑Men, the Fantastic Four and other MCU properties. Key moments shown included Professor Xavier reacting to a catastrophic event, Thor charging at Doom (who stops Stormbreaker with his hand), Mystique battling Yelena Belova, Gambit facing Shang‑Chi, and Steve Rogers dramatically returning and summoning Mjolnir. The film is scheduled for release on Dec. 18, 2026 — the same day as Dune: Part III — setting up a potential box‑office clash. Disney also announced Infinity: Vision, a new premium‑screen certification, tied to Endgame’s rerelease and Doomsday’s rollout. The trailer was initially exclusive to exhibitors and has not been widely released online.

Jon Favreau unveiled the final trailer and screened roughly the first 17 minutes of The Mandalorian and Grogu at CinemaCon in Las Vegas this week, offering a substantial early look at the film ahead of its May 22 theatrical release. The feature continues the Disney+ series story, casting Pedro Pascal as Din Djarin and Grogu as his apprentice; Sigourney Weaver appears as New Republic colonel Ward and Jeremy Allen White provides the voice of Rotta the Hutt. Favreau wrote the story with Dave Filoni, who has taken a larger creative role at Lucasfilm, and Ludwig Göransson composed the score. Early footage shown at the convention opens with an assault on scattered Imperial warlords, action aboard AT-AT-style walkers, and moments of Grogu using the Force. Deadline said the film includes over 49 minutes of expanded-aspect-ratio sequences for IMAX and other large formats; tickets go on sale immediately. Coverage of the CinemaCon presentation noted strong fan applause and curiosity about whether the theatrical return will reinvigorate the Star Wars franchise, while some early reviewers offered mixed reactions to the footage.

Jack Schlossberg, the 33-year-old grandson of President John F. Kennedy and a Democratic candidate in a Manhattan congressional primary, said he showed his mother Caroline Kennedy a clip from Ryan Murphy’s FX/Hulu series Love Story and they 'laughed so hard' at her dramatized portrayal. Speaking on Katie Couric’s Next Question podcast (recorded April 15), Schlossberg reiterated his long-standing criticism that the series is fictionalized and sensationalizes the private lives of his family. He mocked costume choices for his father Edwin Schlossberg and called the program a 'stupid show' while adding he has no problem with viewers who enjoyed it. Schlossberg has previously labelled the series a 'grotesque display' and urged that profits might be donated to causes associated with his late uncle, JFK Jr., such as the JFK Library. Love Story — which stars Paul Anthony Kelly and Sarah Pidgeon as John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, with Grace Gummer and Ben Shenkman as Caroline and Edwin — revisits the couple’s romance and their 1999 deaths in a plane crash, and has prompted public pushback from several real-life figures depicted in the drama.
