Shrek 5 has officially announced a release date in a first-look teaser, but a strange new animation detail has left fans perturbed. On Thursday, Universal Pictures released the first trailer for the next installment in its iconic Shrek franchise, which will see Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy reprise their respective roles as Shrek, Donkey and Princess Fiona. It will also welcome Zendaya as Felicia, one of Shrek and Fiona’s triplets. The couple’s three ogre children were first introduced in the third movie, Shrek the Third (2007). In the clip, Shrek, Donkey, Princess Fiona, and Felicia gather around a magic mirror to ask, “Who’s the fairest of them all?” “Why Shrek, of course,” the mirror responds, going on to show a series of images of Shrek in a pair of glasses making a duck face, dancing in a skintight body suit, and a doctored image of him with abs. The last picture causes Shrek and Donkey to shriek in fear while Felicia reacts in disgust, saying, “Ew, dad.” “Oooh, ...

Marc Webb’s Snow White reimagining mostly sticks to the original story but introduces major changes. In the new film, Snow White isn’t waiting for a prince; instead, she aims to become a just ruler. The Evil Queen’s end is portrayed differently in this version. Disney’s Snow White gets a modern update over 80 years after the classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs . The 2025 film, starring Rachel Zegler as Snow White and Gal Gadot as the Evil Queen, follows the 1937 tale and Grimm’s fairy tale closely but adds unique twists. Here are the key differences: Snow White’s name honors the blizzard on her birth night, not her pale skin. The animated movie called her “white as snow,” while the remake explains her name comes from a snowstorm when she was born. Her parents play a bigger role in her backstory. The original skips their story, but the new film shows them ruling the kingdom kindly, teaching her leadership. After her mother’s death, the Evil Queen marries the king, later tricking him...

"Big" George Foreman, one of the most impactful and well-known boxers of all time, passed away on Friday, as his family revealed on his social media profile. He was 76. Foreman, who secured an Olympic gold medal in 1968, was a two-time heavyweight champion and a Hall of Fame fighter. He is perhaps most famous for the legendary Rumble in the Jungle showdown with Muhammad Ali in 1974 in Zaire, a match Foreman unexpectedly lost via an eighth-round knockout. It remains arguably the most iconic bout in history, and the documentary "When We Were Kings," which captured the event, earned an Academy Award for best documentary feature. Foreman made history once more later in his career. After losing the heavyweight title to Ali at the age of 25, he fought five additional times, including a fifth-round TKO victory over Joe Frazier (whom he had stopped in two rounds to initially claim the crown) and a thrilling fifth-round knockout of Ron Lyle in a classic slugfest. #GeorgeFor...
