Netflix is in early development on the comedy feature Little Brother starring John Cena and Eric Andre from screenwriters Jarrad Paul and Andrew Mogel.

The film follows a famous real estate agent whose carefully curated world is upended when his eccentric “little brother” unexpectedly reappears.

Cena and Andre will reunite on the project after collaborating on The Eric Andre Show in the Season 5 episode “The Asap Ferg Show.” In the now-infamous 2020 episode, Andre suffered a real-life concussion after an on-camera accident involving Cena and a metal shelf.

David Bernad and Ruben Fleischer are producing.

Fans picked Deadpool & Wolverine star Ryan Reynolds as well as Adam Sandler as some of the most overrated stars in Hollywood. In a vox pop by a popular page, common folk in the UK were asked about who they think are the most overrated stars in Hollywood, and Reynolds, Sandler, and Timothée Chalamet seemed to dominate the list.

While some members of the list may deserve it, others such as Chalamet have proved why they are at the top. Even actors like Adam Sandler and Dwayne Johnson, who were featured in the list, seem to be taking on roles that are not of their usual style. The jury is still out, however, on these stars.

According to Sports Illustrated, yes, there are a lot that were better.

After Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns teamed up to take out the Bloodline, The Rock appeared at the end of the show. He did not say anything except a slashing across the throat gesture.

John Cena has been a major player in the WWE for over 20 years and is considered one of the greatest to have ever done it in the ring. The WWE superstar’s aura and unbridled commitment to entertain audiences through his energetic performance in the ring has won him a large fanbase. Cena and another superstar share a historic WWE record that none have come close to.

The Peacemaker star and Ric Flair currently share the record of being the 16-time WWE World Champions. Cena recently announced his retirement by the end of 2025 and has a finite time to become the reigning WWE champion with 17 wins. However, Booker T believes that the title shouldn’t be forced on him just because his tenure is ending.

John Cena’s catchphrase, “You can’t see me!”, will soon enough be a reality, as the WWE legend announced his retirement at this weekend’s Money in the Bank. During Saturday’s event, a special moment was given to Cena – who wasn’t expected to be in attendance – so he could tell the crowd when his final five-knuckle shuffle would be coming.

Coming out to his iconic theme and carrying a towel that read “The Last Time Is Now”, John Cena took to the ring, giving an emotional and passionate speech in which he outlined his future plans. “The 2025 Royal Rumble will be my last. The 2025 Elimination Chamber will be my last. And I’m here tonight to announce that in Las Vegas, Wrestlemania 2025 will be the last Wrestlemania I compete in.” While he didn’t explicitly say that Wrestlemania 41 – slated for April 19th and 20th – would be his last match ever,...

John Cena made his WWE debut in 2002 after he answered Kurt Angle’s open challenge with ruthless aggression. Although he lost that match, he quickly became one of the names that was destined to be a future Hall of Famer. Cena rose to become one of the most prominent faces of wrestling, with a career full of achievements that included being a 13-time WWE Champion and a three-time World Heavyweight Champion.

The WWE star later went on to find an acting career in Hollywood and has worked on several major projects since his debut. Cena has used his physicality to prove his acting range in works like The Marine, F9, Peacemaker, and many more.

Although he was juggling between being a Hollywood star and a wrestler, it looks like The Cenation Leader has made his choice as he officially announces his retirement from WWE.

When Peso Pluma announced his album Éxodo in his historic Rolling Stone cover story earlier this year, he promised to reveal a “darker side” of himself and explore a part of his artistry he hadn’t touched on his excellent 2023 breakthrough, Génesis. “There’s going to be a lot of things about why we do what we do,” he said coyly about his new music. On Éxodo, Peso delivers a solid album and generally stays true to his word, but he struggles to push himself out of his comfort zone on the album’s corridos.

[Update: Variety has confirmed that "Creep 3" is actually "The Creep Tapes," a new series! This article has been updated with additional information.]

Babe, wake up! New "Creep" sequel news just dropped! 10 years ago, Mark Duplass and Patrick Brice unleashed the found footage film "Creep," in which an aspiring filmmaker named Aaron (Brice) answers an ad posted on Craiglist by an allegedly terminally ill man named Josef (Duplass) looking to make videos for his unborn child to watch after he's passed. Aaron arrives to record Josef's "day in the life" videos believing he's doing something noble, but quickly realizes that there's something seriously wrong with the man who hired him for the job.

The film arrived seven years after the success of "Paranormal Activity" inspired an explosion of found footage horror, which at this point had jumped the shark in terms of practical believability. "Creep" dropped on Netflix and became a huge hit through word of mouth,...

When was the last time a joke had you gasping for air, laughter spilling uncontrollably? In an absolutely cheeky banter, Kai Cenat just gifted Kevin Hart a stepping stool on his livestream (via Instagram)—a gesture that’s sparking conversations louder than a thunderclap in a silent valley.

Following his appearance on the February 2nd episode of Friday Night SmackDown, The Rock made a much-anticipated comeback to WWE programming, making it clear that he would be a regular on WWE television in the lead-up to WrestleMania 40.

Engaged in an escalating feud with Cody Rhodes, it became evident that The Great One would have a significant impact on WWE storylines. While he is in line for a big match at WrestleMania 40, it’s more than likely fans won’t get to see The Rock after WrestleMania 40.

With The People’s Champ back in WWE, he is having the time of his life as a heel persona, and his outstanding mic skills and charismatic promos have played a key role in the show. With an unparalleled mic skill and the ability to connect with the audience on an emotional level; he makes the wrestling show an entertaining watch. Naturally, fans would look forward to the storyline of The Bloodline vs Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins that would reach its peak climax this WrestleMania.

The Bloodline

However, Dwayne Johnson’s electrifying promos have invited him into some trouble as it has rubbed off people in the wrong way, setting up double standards in the show. Johnson, who has recently joined the Tko group as one of its board members, used profane language, not adhering to the PG guidelines that the company has set for its stars.

Proving that nobody else can do it like him, the wrestler-turned-actor apparently sang a diss track as he appeared on Friday night without his cousin Roman Reigns and the other Bloodline members.

WWE events are often the synonyms of every word that would describe crazy and shocking.

Aew Revolution 2024 was a hell of a show and it ended with the satisfying finale of Sting’s time in the ring. The final stretch of Sting’s career was a wonderful chance to set things right for the legendary wrestler, after the wrestling business had constantly let him down over the years. He was once the ace of WCW, but the incompetence and selfishness of others hurt his legacy in different ways at different promotions. But despite being in his 60s, his three years at Aew allowed him to go out on his own terms.

The Stinger is a beloved icon for a reason. While he did get wrapped up in such unfortunate things as the WCW mini-movies, the Shockmaster, the ill-fated Hulk Hogan match at Starrcade, and a really unfortunate PPV main event involving Jeff Hardy, Sting was still one of WCW’s great highlights and kicked a...
