Jared Padalecki Reveals He’s Playing a Speedy Supe on THE BOYS
The Boys final season will also serve as a de facto Supernatural reunion. Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins are getting in on the fun with Jensen Ackles and showrunner Eric Kripke. But while we’ve known that, we only just learned for sure who Padelicki is playing. We’re finally going to meet the former member of the Seven who used to sneak college girls into Vought Tower with Lamplighter, the speedster A-Train replaced, Mister Marathon. @conmose

♬ origineel geluid – ConmosePadalecki confirmed the casting rumor about himself during an appearance at the FACTS Convention in Belgium. (Which we first heard about at ComicBook.com.) He is playing Mister Marathon, a character referenced multiple times on the TV adaptation. He was the Seven’s speedster before A-Train took his spit. A-Train was also in the group four years longer than his predecessor. We’ll finally see the Flash-like Mister Marathon when Padelecki and Collins make their series debut in season five’s coming episodes.
The super fast Supe was a minor character in Garth Ennis’ comic series, where he died quickly during a failed rescue of a highjacked plane. Who will be looking for Mister Marathon after all these years? A show trailer revealed Homelander and Soldier Boy will come calling. We’re sure that will go just fine for Mister Marathon!
Prime VideoWhile we now know for sure who Padalecki is playing, we still don’t know Collins’ character just yet. But we know what to expect from both her and Mister Marathon. Kripke previously described both of the show’s new characters as “just such douchebags.” No wonder Homelander and Soldier Boy will want to meet with them.
Will Mister Marathon want to work with his old Seven leader again? Based on how things have gone for everyone else int he group, he should probably run away from the whole situation.

PROJECT HAIL MARY to Amaze in IMAX Again for One Week
Project Hail Mary, directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller and starring Ryan Gosling, is everything we go to the movies for. It’s smart, funny, heartwarming, and manages to still give us a jaw-dropping sci-fi spectacle. Not to mention, the adorable alien known as Rocky is already an instant icon. Perhaps most importantly, it proves that a non-franchise IP can still draw crowds into movie theaters. But if you missed seeing the film in a glorious IMAX presentation, we have some good news for you. Project Hail Mary will officially return to IMAX 70mm for a one-week-only engagement, starting on Friday, April 17.
This calls for a fist bump 👊! #ProjectHailMary returns to IMAX 70mm and digital locations this Friday. Tickets on sale now. https://t.co/CwNQIDZOl8 pic.twitter.com/Ppdj51evuN
— IMAX (@IMAX) April 13, 2026Project Hail Mary had to give up its IMAX screens for the Super Mario Galaxy Movie recently. So Mario and Luigi undercut a lot of fans who wanted to see the movie again in the best theatrical format possible. Maybe those two thought Rocky was one of Bowser’s minions? But at least for one week, fans can re-experience Project Hail Mary with nearly two hours of expanded aspect ratio. Lord and Miller’s sci-fi film is already the most successful film that Amazon/MGM Studios has released. And it shows few signs of slowing down.
Amazon/MGM StudiosIn the film, based on the novel by Andy Weir, Ryan Gosling plays Ryland Grace, a schoolteacher who wakes up from an induced coma on an interstellar spaceship. And he wakes up with no memory of how he got there. Before long, Grace realizes he’s the sole survivor of a three-person crew sent on a “Hail Mary” mission to save Earth’s sun from extinction.

And just like that, Project Hail Mary becomes one of the best human/alien buddy movies ever made. Grace and Rocky now give Han and Chewie a run for their money. You can buy tickets for Project Hail Mary in IMAX now.

Here’s How to Watch the Final Episodes of SMILING FRIENDS
All good things must come to an end. That includes the stupidly hilarious animated hit Smooling Fronds. Excuse me, Smiling Friends. Originally greenlit for five seasons, it came as a shock for fans to hear that the series would end after season three. Creators Zach Hadel and Michael Cusack made the abrupt announcement earlier this year. Now, the dreadful day is upon us. Here’s how you can watch the final two episodes of Smiling Friends. Adult Swim
Alas, we will never get another sarcastic comment from Charlie. A positive outburst from Pim. A daring solo adventure from Allan or Glep. There’s always reruns, I guess. Sigh. It’s just not the same. The final two episodes of Smiling Friends aired live on Adult Swim on Sunday, April 12. If you missed them, both episodes are now available to stream with an HBO Max subscription.

RICK AND MORTY Season 9 Shares First Images and May Premiere DateThe final two episodes make up episodes nine and ten of season three. Here’s the official synopsis of each one:
- S3, E9 – “Friend-Bot”
- The Smiling Friends befriend a helpful robot and what happens next will shock you.
- S3, E10 – “Charlie’s Uncle Dies and Doesn’t Come Back”
- Pim and Charlie meet Charlie’s Uncle, who’s full of mysteries and tricks alike; and then Allan goes gaga.
Hadel and Cusack have spoken out about the abrupt cancellation. The duo clarified that the decision to end the series was entirely their own, though Adult Swim supported it. The show is weird and stupid, and we just can’t get enough. Seriously, we’re really going to miss the Smiling Friends and their outrageous antics. To quote Mr. Boss, Smiling Friends is over. Nevertheless, it will always live on in our hearts (unlike Charlie’s uncle, it seems). Maybe not with new episodes, but absolutely in the form of iconic quotes and compilation videos on TikTok.
To get us through this dark time, there’s always another dumb adult cartoon to turn to. Season nine of Rick and Morty premieres May 24 at 11 p.m. on Adult Swim.

Bryan Cranston Defends BREAKING BAD’s Skyler White After Frankie Muniz’s Terrible Take
I checked the calendar three times to make sure I have this right: It is, in fact, the year 2026. I wasn’t sure after hearing Frankie Muniz regurgitate a terrible TV take that was boring ten years ago. Muniz told his Malcom in the Middle: Life’s Still Unfair co-star Byran Cranston he always wanted “to kill” Breaking Bad‘s Skyler White. His hatred for the character is an old, absurd opinion Walter White himself immediately shut down.
Bryan Cranston pushes back after Frankie Muniz said he wanted Skyler White to diepic.twitter.com/atLvRZjRz2
— Saul Goodman ⚖ (@itsSaulGoodman) April 13, 2026During a joint appeared on First We Feast’s Hot One Versus, Muniz told Cranston he loved Breaking Bad, but he wanted to “kill” Skyler White. Muniz said it would have made Walter White’s life “so much easier.” Again, this just happened in the year 2026 and not on a Breaking Bad message in 2010.
Fortunately, Bryan Cranston immediately explained why that old uninformed take—frequently echoed by some of Breaking Bad‘s worst fans who didn’t realize Walter White was a monster and Skyler did nothing wrong—was nonsense.
AMC“Now see, she got a lot of blowback from that,” said Cranston. “Well, first of all, Anna Gunn is a superb actor, but she got, like, ‘Ahh! Why don’t you get off his back?’ Wait a minute. Let me understand this. Her husband leaves without any explanation. She’s pregnant. He’s making crystal methamphetamine, and people have died. And she’s the bitch? Like, we couldn’t understand.”
Neither can I, Bryan. Neither can I. Walter White was a disgusting pig whose ego and failures led him to become a mass murdering sociopath. Skyler White’s only crime on was not turning him in and saving a whole lot of lives. Even then, it’s one thing to have found her annoying. It’s another to say you wanted “to kill her.”
In 2026, neither Bryan Cranston nor I should have to explain why.

Aptos’ Alexa Castañeda named league’s co-player of the year | All-SCCAL girls soccer
The Santa Cruz Coast Athletic League girls soccer season was so jam-packed with talent this past winter campaign that coaches had no choice but to hand out two awards for the league’s top player.
Aptos High senior Alexa Castañeda and Santa Cruz senior Lia Guilarte were named the SCCAL’s co-Players of the Year during last month’s end-of-the-season meeting.
Castañeda, who was named the league’s POY as a sophomore in 2023-24, tallied 16 goals and eight assists in the 2025-26 season.
“I’m very grateful for the coaches voting for me and [Guilarte],” Castañeda said in a previous interview with The Pajaronian. “Everybody that won an award is obviously deserving for putting their time and work into the sport. It was definitely a reflection of my hard work.”
Aptos junior Bella Hartnett took home the Attacker of the Year award, and teammate senior Maddie Redding was named the Midfielder of the Year.
Soquel senior Hailey Betterman was awarded the SCCAL’s Defensive Player of the Year, while Santa Cruz junior Ari Flores earned Goalkeeper of the Year honors.
Hartnett used her blazing speed to get past defenders and attack the net, finishing with 22 goals and eight assists.
“[Hartnett’s] been nominated every year, I think she deserved it every year if you lead the league in goals,” said Aptos head coach Gina Castañeda in a previous interview with The Pajaronian.
Redding contributed six assists as the Mariners’ main defensive midfielder, controlling the tempo of the game while being the first to support the defensive line and transition into attack mode.
“We tried different players in that position,” Gina Castañeda said. “[Redding] accepted the responsibility and her hard work paid off.”
Gina Castañeda won her second Coach of the Year award after she led the Mariners to a fourth consecutive SCCAL title, and 16th overall since 1985-86.
Aptos seniors Izzie Schenone and Anahi Najera along with sophomore Emily Santiago each earned All-SCCAL First Team honors. Teammates Aubrie Ford, Tayanna Bonilla and Kenzi Culberson were recognized on the all-league second team.
The Central Coast Section Division III champion Mariners conceded just four goals and recorded six shutouts in SCCAL play this season, finishing undefeated at 10-0 for the first time since going 12-0 in 2016-17.
“You’re talking four months of dedicated work to these young ladies to get them to win a CCS championship,” Castañeda said. “It’s not just about training a team and having the best staff that’s at your side. It’s all the other stuff that goes into it, the pasta nights, film, PowerPoints, empowering them to make decisions on the field.”

There’s Nothing Sweet About Eli Roth’s ICE CREAM MAN Trailer
The neighborhood ice cream man is probably one of the least threatening people in existence… at least, on a surface level. He’s the friendly guy with the truck that’s playing a catchy tune. He pulls up and gives kids a sweet and cold treat to enjoy on a hot summer day. The ice cream guy wears a smile and perhaps a nice uniform to make himself seem like a friend. But, when you think about it, the ice cream man could be a total creep or even a deadly killer if he wanted to be. Eli Roth imagines this horrifying scenario in the trailer for Ice Cream Man, which turns an innocent childhood figure into a nightmare.
ICE CREAM MAN | Official Trailer 🍦🩸
I Scream. You Scream. We All Scream for Ice Cream Man.
In theatres August 7. pic.twitter.com/Bv6LhZBnj0
Roth, who is known for hits like Thanksgiving and Cabin Fever, directs, produces, and stars in Ice Cream Man, which he also co-wrote with Noah Belson. That’s a lot of work, my guy. The film takes place during a seemingly idyllic summer when a town goes into madness when an ice cream man serves up sweets with really bad results. It is the type of horror flick that has my name all over it, to be honest.
