Is Tom Cruise going to make a double Oscar run?

We say it all the time, that we just aren’t minting Movie Stars like we used to, that even when a new one emerges, it’s not quite like how it was, because of the shattering of the monoculture. Nothing proves this point more than a Tom Cruise retrospective.
A teaser for Digger, Cruise’s upcoming film with Alejandro G. Iñárritu (as he is billed in the key art for the film), features a montage almost two and a half minutes long of Tom Cruise’s greatest hits, an

The introduction of the ABS system has changed the face of Major League Baseball—for the better. That doesn't mean, however, that everyone knows how to use it properly. So, without further ado, here are the top five complainers in MLB, starting with Sal Stewart.
Not only is the Cincinnati Reds first baseman in the running for the National League Rookie of the Year award thanks to his production at the plate, but he's also been the best hitter in Major League Baseball when it comes to using

The Sabres pulled off a major coup by acquiring the Blackhawks' fourth overall pick in a big trade on Tuesday.
On paper, the fourth overall pick is incredible, but perhaps not so much for a team trying to be competitive right now. Acquiring that pick may have been the first step toward something bigger in Buffalo.
That's what was discussed on the latest episode of Sportsnet's “Real Kyper & Bourne.” 
With this pick (and perhaps other assets), the Sabres could try to acquire C

Seeing Michael Hage return to Michigan for another season has left Canadiens fans wondering. It's hard to believe that a player—whom most people see as already ready for the pros—would want to stay in college.
By staying an extra season at Michigan, Hage ensures he'll take on the role of big brother and leader. He'll also be one of the best players on the team thanks to his experience.
The Canadiens prospect will, however, face pressure to prove that last point. The Wolverines have c

“London life” in the title of this post to the tune of Beyoncé’s “Cuff It”, near the end of the song when she sings:“’Cause we gon’ f-ck up the nightTake flight, blinding lights”…because forever I thought she was singing “London lights” or “London life", is it just me? So when I came up with the title, that’s the song that popped into my head – not the worst song to pop into your head. How are we al

After making trades on the deadline to part ways with Justin Faulk and Brayden Schenn, it seemed likely that a rebuild was on the horizon in St. Louis. Add the trade of Jordan Kyrou to the mix, and everything was in place to confirm the theory of some sort of rebuild.
However, based on General Manager Doug Armstrong's most recent comments, that's not the Blues' mindset right now.
Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reported some comments from the Blues' GM in an article on Wednesday, and the next

How long has it been since the Red Sox did anything to quell the trade rumors surrounding Jarren Duran?
In fact, the answer is clear: ever since Craig Breslow took over.
If we look back a bit, we see that rumors surrounding the outfielder have been circulating since spring training in 2024. That was just a few months after Breslow took over the job.
And yet, Duran is still with the team.
In 2026, things aren't going well for him. He's one of the worst hitters in Major League Baseball this season

The Montreal Canadiens are reportedly still interested in Toronto Maple Leafs forward Matthew Knies, but competition for his services is said to be growing increasingly fierce.
According to reports by Marco D'Amico, discussions surrounding Knies are gaining momentum as several teams are reportedly showing serious interest in the young forward.There are reports of discussions with Buffalo and the No. 4 overall pick.
San Jose is also said to be interested.
Montreal remains interested, but it's har

The Montreal Alouettes have announced the return of American defensive back Faion Hicks, a move that adds depth to their defense midway through the CFL season.The 28-year-old player had initially participated in the team's training camp in Quebec City before being cut just before the start of the regular season.
Standing 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing 192 pounds, Hicks has had a varied career in both the NFL and the CFL. Selected in the seventh round of the 2022 draft by the Denver Broncos,

As expected, which was noted in my post about it yesterday, Taylor Swift, the First Lady of Tight Ends, performed at the Tight Ends & Friends Concert last night.
She was joined by Lainey Wilson on “Love Story”, one of her signature tracks and obviously fitting because as Juliet she was wearing the ring given to her by her Romeo after she said yes.View this post on InstagramA post shared by billboard (@billboard)

Mike Babcock is the new head coach of the Edmonton Oilers.
And you know as well as I do: his hiring has caused quite a stir for obvious reasons. We remember his time in Columbus, and we also know that the guy doesn't exactly have the best reputation in the world.
But why, exactly, did the Oilers hire him? Connor McDavid answered that question during an interview with Mark Spector (Sportsnet).
Basically, the Oilers' captain said he's sick of losing. He's sick of not having someone behind him who

Let's start this week with news from the Juniors. The Laval Pirates 440 were on a six-game winning streak at the time of this writing. Sébastien Latour's team has been very successful lately, and it will be interesting to see how they perform in their upcoming games. We're heading to Longueuil to the Ducs to find last week's standout player. Zakary Dodier is the recipient of the award, along with a personalized B-45 stick.
The Voyageurs, meanwhile, are returning to Jonquière for a

Simon Nemec, William Eklund, Jordan Kyrou, Bowen Byram, Alex Tuch…
All of these guys have been traded since yesterday. The NHL trade market is completely crazy, but that hasn't stopped teams from making moves nonetheless.
So who will be the next to change teams? Connor Hellebuyck? Auston Matthews? Matthew… Knies?
We know Knies' name has been floating around for a while, but this is different. Because according to reports (Marco D'Amico), talks are heating up right now regarding the

Madonna’s been in Paris for Fashion Week. As we saw yesterday she was seated front row between Charli XCX and Connor Storrie at Saint Laurent, the pop culture mother of all the cool kids.

There had been rumors about a possible trade involving Alex Tuch and the Washington Capitals.
It's now confirmed.

As the NFL offseason draws to a close, media attention is already shifting toward the teams' imminent return to the field.But beyond football, a major media scandal continues to cause a stir behind the scenes of American sports journalism.
At the center of this storm is Dianna Russini, a former figure at The Athletic, and the contents of a recent report published by The New York Times. The media group unveiled a lengthy report revisiting the internal tensions and repercussions of a controversy t

Since yesterday, it’s been crazy what’s been happening in the National League.
Rumors are flying as other teams make moves to strengthen their rosters for next season.
That said, what are the biggest rumors right now?
We have to start with the one involving Connor Hellebuyck… because according to Marco D'Amico, things are starting to heat up.
From what he's hearing, teams are calling about the goaltender, and D'Amico reports in a tweet that the Sabres and the Panthers are amon

Dear Gossips,Anyone who has ever f-cked with K-dramas knows Guardian: The Lonely and Great God, better known as Goblin. It’s one of the most-watched, most popular K-dramas of all time, about an immortal mythological figure looking for his bride through the centuries so that she might help him find eternal rest. Goblin was released in December 2016, a smash hit, immediately iconic. Not just in viewership but in impact. There are key scenes in the show that are instantly recognisable –

The Toronto Blue Jays clearly need reinforcements in their starting rotation. And Shane Bieber's return to action yesterday (Tuesday) was part of the plan.
Bieber missed most of the first half of the season due to inflammation in his right elbow, which forced him to extend his spring training and make five rehab starts before returning to the majors.
But things didn't go exactly as planned for him. In fact, in his first start of the season against the Houston Astros at Rogers Centre, Bieber had

The Montreal Canadiens’ preseason schedule has not yet been officially announced.
However, we do know that there will be three games against the Ottawa Senators.
And in a way, we can thank the Sens.
We can thank the Sens because they shared their preseason schedule earlier this morning. And in that post, we learn that the Habs will face the Ottawa team three times:September 21 at the Colisée Vidéotron in Trois-Rivières

Canadiens fans respect Brendan Gallagher for what he's done on the ice in Montreal.
He's given it his all for the team, and people always appreciate players who give their all on the ice. 
But it goes beyond that, too. Over the years, the small forward (who still plays for the Habs) has also played an important role in the community. And that hasn't gone unnoticed.
Tomorrow, Gallagher will be named an honorary citizen of the City of Montreal. The ceremony will take place in the Hall of Hono

This season, the New York Mets and the San Francisco Giants are headed in the same direction—straight into a wall. Both teams are sitting very low in the standings, and they'll clearly be on the selling side when the trade deadline rolls around.
However, David Stearns (Mets) and Buster Posey (Giants) were active during the offseason in an effort to improve their teams' performance. Judging by both teams' current records, the results have been more than disappointing, and further moves coul

We're now 48 hours away from the NHL amateur draft, and I think this is the perfect time to remind everyone that we have far more questions than answers when it comes to the future of the prospects whose rights are held by the Canadiens.
Why did Michael Hage actually decide to play a third season in the NCAA? Is he a center or a winger? Were we ready to trade him?
Will Alexander Zharovsky be able to come over and finish the upcoming season in North America, much like Ivan Demidov did just over a

The Canadiens must not miss their goal: improving their team.
We saw yesterday that things can move quickly on the trade market. And if Kent Hughes doesn't want to miss out, he'll have to pay the price to help his team.
He can't always do what he did in the summer of 2025 or at the 2026 trade deadline when it comes to acquiring an established top-6 forward.
The problem is that the pool of targets is starting to shrink. As time goes on, certain players are no longer necessarily options. Jordan Ky
