Warning! This article contains spoilers for Marvel Swimsuit Special #1.

Marvel Comics has joined the hotly debated anxieties surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) in a surprisingly meta fashion. A preview for the upcoming Marvel Swimsuit Special #1 hints at a storyline that thrusts the Avengers, particularly Captain America, into the heart of an AI-generated art scandal, mirroring real-world concerns about AI's ethical implications and its potential impact on creative industries.

Marvel Swimsuit Special #1, by the creative team of Tim Seeley, Tony Fleecs, Nick Bradshaw, and Rachelle Rosenberg, is set to explore this contentious topic. The preview shows Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Janet Van Dyne, Jennifer Walters, and Natasha Romanoff taking the lead in voicing their disgust with the oil company, Roxxon, using their likenesses for the cover of a swimsuit issue.

Steve Rogers is rightfully the most offended of them all and the first to point out that the use of his image,...

Bethenny Frankel is calling out Joy Behar.

After Bethenny’s thong swimsuit runway went viral, she spoke to followers about the realities of how much prep comes before a show like that.

The panelists of The View are very familiar with how speculation about appearances impacts famous people — particularly women.

But that did not stop Joy from accusing Bethenny of having “fake” boobs. Now, Bethenny is responding.

On a June 2025 episode of ‘The View,’ co-host Joy Behar speculated about Bethenny Frankel’s surgical history. (Image Credit: ABC) What did Joy Behar say about Bethenny Frankel?

Following Bethenny Frankel’s thong swimsuit runway show for Sports Illustrated, the panelists of The View weighed in.

Ostensibly, the topic was celebrity privacy.

Which questions can the public, and interviewers, reasonably ask about their bodies, their beauty treatments, and more?

That is a nuanced topic. And, during the discussion, the panelists...

The Nader sisters are heading to Hulu and Freeform this summer in a new coming-of-age docuseries.

“Love Thy Nader” will follow Brooks, Sarah Jane, Grace Ann and Mary Holland from their beginnings in Louisiana t0 the glamour and grind of New York City as the former’s breakout success leads the group into the high-stakes world of modeling, the social scene of Manhattan’s elite and a whirlwind amount of attention in their romantic lives.

“Set against the backdrop of Soho lofts, fashion campaigns and skyscraper dreams, ‘Love Thy Nader’ explores the ultimate question of what it really means to ‘make it,'” the logline states. “In a city where one can burn bright or go up in flames, sometimes the only thing truly needed is a sister who has your back.”

The docuseries comes after Brooks recently competed on Season 33 of ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars,” finishing in ninth place with Gleb Savchenko.

Three decades after being shelved by Marvel Comics, the Marvel Swimsuit Special is returning for modern audiences to tie in with a new Marvel Rivals Summer update.

A parody of Sports Illustrated’s annual Swimsuit Special, the Marvel Swimsuit Special was cancelled back in the mid-90s in the midst of continued criticism for its objectification of characters (though we don't know for certain that this is why the concept was scrapped).

The new comic book will release in July after a “long-demanded return” to tie in with Marvel Rivals, and will feature designs for new costumes coming to the game. Players will be able to purchase new swimsuit skins for popular heroes, such as Storm, Scarlet Witch, The Incredible Hulk and more.

This new take in the Swimsuit Special will also have a story, "so you can pretend you’re reading it for the articles."

Directors’ Fortnight, the independent selection running alongside the Cannes Film Festival, has unveiled an eclectic lineup for its 57th edition, which will showcase Christian Petzold’s “Miroirs No.3,” Eva Victor’s “Sorry, Baby,” Robin Campillo’s “Enzo” and Lloyd Lee Choi’s “Lucky Lu.”

Curated by Julien Rejl, Directors’ Fortnight will open with “Enzo,” a film directed by Robin Campillo (“Bpm Beats Per Minute).” Campillo stepped in at the helm after Laurent Cantet, his longtime friend and collaborator, died in April. Cantet and Campillo had previously collaborated on the script of the Palme d’Or-winning “The Class.”

Produced by Marie-Ange Luciani (“Anatomy of a Fall”) at Les Films de Pierre, “Enzo” is set in Marseille and follows the journey of a young apprentice mason, Enzo, who befriends a Ukrainian colleague who gives him a glimpse of a new horizon. The film stars newcomers Eloy Pohu and Maksym Slivinskyi, alongside Élodie Bouchez and Pierfrancesco Favino.

The Buccaneers are back in a set of first-look photos and a teaser clip for Season 2 of the Apple TV+ show, which will return to society and streaming June 18, 2025.

The eight-episode second season of the series, inspired by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Edith Wharton’s unfinished novel of the same name, will make its global debut on Apple TV+ with one episode on Wednesday, June 18, 2025 followed by one new episode every Wednesday, through August 6, 2025.

Season two reunites the boisterous all-American girl friend group consisting of Kristine Frøseth as Nan St. George, Alisha Boe as Conchita Closson, Aubri Ibrag as Lizzy Elmsworth, Josie Totah as Mabel Elmsworth and Imogen Waterhouse as Jinny St. George. Emmy Award nominee Christina Hendricks returns Mrs. St. George, with Mia Threapleton as Honoria Marable.

We’re just two days away from the highly-anticipated return of Cobra Kai, which is currently in its sixth and final season. Netflix decided to split up the final installment into three different parts as Johnny Lawrence, Daniel Larusso, and the gang navigate the biggest showdown of their karate journey so far—the Sekai Taikai. As always, Miyagi-Do goes through a series of conflicts trying to prove they’re the best, all while its clashing personalities struggle to put their differences aside for the sake of the dojo.

In season 6, we get to meet a new batch of characters as new dojos are introduced. The Iron Dragons are a tough match for Miyagi-Do, and things only get more complicated as the characters spend more time together. One of the new additions is the dojo’s co-captain Zara Malik, played by Rayna Vallandingham, who gets involved with Robby. The 22-year-old Indian-American...

From Cool Hand Luke to The Count of Monte Cristo, Prison Break, and Orange Is the New Black, it's no wonder that prison projects are so popular with viewers because, through the eyes of the central character, we get to see the full journey. Black Warrant, the latest addition to the prison movie genre, is based on the book Black Warrant: Confessions of a Tihar Jailer, co-written by journalist Sunetra Choudhury and Sunil Kumar Gupta, a former jailer. The book recounts Gupta's experiences over the course of his 34-year career. The seven-episode Netflix series was created by Vikramaditya Motwane and Satyanshu Singh. Black Warrant stars Zahan Kapoor as Sunil Gupta, the central character. Other actors include Rahul Bhat, Paramvir Singh Cheema, Anurag Thakur, and Sidhant Gupta as Charles Sobhraj, the real-life "Bikini Killer," also portrayed by Tahar Rahim in The Serpent.

Beneath the Bun: Krabby Patty Secrets Special Episode Summary

The upcoming episode of “SpongeBob SquarePants,” titled “Beneath the Bun: Krabby Patty Secrets Special,” promises to be an exciting adventure for fans of the beloved show. In this episode, viewers will dive deep into the world of Bikini Bottom, where SpongeBob, the cheerful square yellow sponge, works at the Krusty Krab. This fast-food restaurant is famous for its delicious Krabby Patties, and this special will reveal some of the secrets behind the iconic burger.

As the episode unfolds, SpongeBob and his friends embark on a quest to uncover the hidden ingredients that make the Krabby Patty so special. With the help of his loyal pet snail, Gary, and his best friend, Patrick, SpongeBob will face challenges and surprises along the way. The colorful underwater setting of Bikini Bottom will be filled with humor, heart,...

Nosferatu's first SpongeBob SquarePants cameo was comic relief to a creepy episode. The iconic vampire has since reappeared across multiple seasons, cementing his place in the show's canon.

Nosferatu is well-acquainted with SpongeBob SquarePants fans; Count Orlok has frequently visited Bikini Bottom since his Season 2 appearance. The show ventured into quirky dark humor in "Graveyard Shift", but audiences were likely startled by the vampire's sudden presence. His first cameo was played for laughs, but his black-and-white presence contrasted with that scene's cartoon saturation. The jarring experience was so memorable that the show made him a recurring character like Mary, Barnacle Boy, and Mermaid Man. In an interview with THR, director Robert Eggers acknowledged how SpongeBob SquarePants revived Nosferatu as a pop culture icon.

Mr. Lawrence and other SpongeBob SquarePants cast members explain how characters are connected to the Seven Deadly Sins. The animated Nickelodeon series, following the humorous escapades of SpongeBob and other Bikini Bottom residents, has spawned many fan theories over the years. Among them is speculation that each character represents one of the major sins taught in Christianity: SpongeBob himself is lust, Patrick is sloth, Squidward is wrath, Sandy is pride, Mr. Krabs is greed, Plankton is envy, and Gary the Snail is gluttony.

During a reunion video for Esquire, the cast of SpongeBob SquarePants addressed this theory, among others, with Squidward’s actor Rodger Bumpass noting similarities between Patrick and Mr. Krabs and their sins, but no one else. Lawrence, a writer who also voices Plankton, explained that while characters likely have individual distinctions, it may not be as concrete as pairing them with one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Ah, SpongeBob SquarePants – a formative part of so many childhoods – is peak nautical nonsense peppered with some poignant allegories. What seemed like a simple cartoon about an oddly optimistic sponge flipping burgers and annoying his grumpy neighbor has become one of the most analyzed, meme-able, and downright mysterious shows in TV history – a recurring theme with animation, and for good reason.

Spend some time in the rabbit holes of the internet and you’ll find theories about the series, some more believable than others, that range from intriguing to downright disturbing. From global warming metaphors to secret cannibalistic patties, fans have dug deep into what they think Bikini Bottom hides.

Most of these are just silly, some perhaps, sinister, and even if they aren’t true, they’ll definitely make you look at the show in...

A piece of fan art shows what it would look like if characters from The Simpsons and SpongeBob SquarePants were combined. The Simpsons follows the residents of Springfield, primarily the Simpson family, and is the longest-running animated series of all time. SpongeBob SquarePants follows undersea characters who live in Bikini Bottom and is Nickelodeon's longest-running animated series.

Recently, a Spongebob and The Simpsons crossover fan art was shared on Instagram by @ben.the.mashup.man and features five characters, who are mixed and matched. For example, SpongeBob has Homer's face and hair and is dressed like The Simpsons character when he goes to work at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. He is also holding a Krabby Patty. One of the other characters is Mr. Krabs, who has the face of Mr. Burns and is also wearing his clothes. One of the other characters is Plankton, whose appearance is...

Rylee is participating on her second season of DWTS as a professional dancer, partnered with Olympic gold medal winner Stephen Nedoroscik.

They are among the early fan-favorite pairs competing on Season 33 to win the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

Meanwhile, Ezra is a newcomer to the show, debuting this season with controversial cast member Anna Delvey.

Unfortunately for Ezra, his celebrity partner was one of the first several eliminations from the show, ending his attempt at a big win in his debut.

However, he’s still an avid participant on DWTS and teamed up with Rylee to poke fun at fellow dancer Gleb Savchenko and model Brooks Nader.

The 2005 film Into the Blue featured 24-year-old Jessica Alba on the brink of her next big break. She was already becoming a household name due to her work in the TV series Dark Angel.

The film was everything except sunny skies for Alba, who has since mentioned that she hated every minute of filming in a bikini.

Q: Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? A: We all have for the last 25 years! That’s 25 years of supremely silly subaquatic surrealism that we, as a crew, and you, as our amazing audience, have been submerged in together. Twenty-five glorious years since Nickelodeon first introduced the world to Stephen Hillenburg’s quirky cast of characters that he discovered in a town deep on the ocean floor called Bikini Bottom. More specifically, one humble little goofball we all know (and love), Mr. SpongeBob SquarePants.

We’ve been so lucky to be part of a crew that has grown and morphed over the years in surprising ways. There are talented folks who have been with us since the very beginning and new members who grew up loving the show that they are now helping create. This is the secret formula to the show’s success.

Riot grrrl icons Bikini Kill made their long-awaited television debut on Monday night, performing “Rebel Girl” on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

Fittingly, the band’s booking coincided with the first night of the 2024 Republican Nation Convention and came just hours after Donald Trump selected J.D. Vance as his running mate. Among his views on women issues, Vance supports a national abortion ban without restrictions, previously voted to block protections against IVF, and suggested women should stay in violent and abusive marriages for the sake of their children. With that pretext, Bikini Kill’s performance of “Rebel Girl” carried an extra level of oomph.

The day some landlubber drops their iPhone in the ocean for it to float down to Bikini Bottom will be a darker one than when the Hash-Slinging Slasher came to town.

SpongeBob SquarePants turned 25 years old this past May. During his quarter-century at the forefront of Nickelodeon programming, Tom Kenny’s beloved, boxy and endlessly upbeat fry cook has remained largely unchanged, with the exception of a brief animation “glow-up” that left the redesigned hero looking a little too much like a SpongeBob plush doll than SpongeBob himself.

Though most of the fans who fell in love with SpongeBob SquarePants during its first few seasons on television probably aren’t religiously keeping up with the show through the modern day — much like how we don’t eat Totino’s Pizza Rolls as often or own as many Tech Deks as we did back then — the Og fans will be relieved...

The May 17 release of the 2024 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue celebrates the swimsuit franchise’s 60th anniversary. A new documentary highlights the woman who founded the issue in 1964 – Jule Campbell.

Directed by Campbell’s daughter-in-law Jill Campbell, “Beyond the Gaze: Jule Campbell’s Swimsuit Issue” explores how the editor, who died in 2022, broke glass ceilings, navigated a sexist workplace and battled accusations of objectification, all while launching the careers of mogul models including Kathy Ireland, Christie Brinkley and Tyra Banks.

The 107 minute film, produced by Eue Documentaries and Red Barn Productions, recently wrapped production. The director is currently submitting the doc for consideration at various fall film festivals.

During her 32-year tenure as founding editor of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, Campbell was charged with the task of creating a yearly swimsuit issue that did not come across as gratuitous. The docu investigates how she managed to control the photographs that...
