Ray Fisher became internationally recognizable as the technologically enhanced superhero Cyborg, but his career began far from the world of comic book blockbusters. The American actor developed his craft through theater before making the leap to major Hollywood productions. His upbringing, particularly the influence of his mother and grandmother, helped shape the values he later carried into his professional life. When Fisher encountered difficulties behind the scenes of Justice League, he chose to speak publicly about his experience. That decision became an important part of a career increasingly ****** ociated with both performance and workplace accountability.
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Fisher grew up in Lawnside, New Jersey, in a large family raised primarily by his mother and grandmother. He has described both women as his real life superheroes, praising the determination and strength they demonstrated while he was growing up. His interest in acting became serious during high school, when encouragement from a teacher led him to audition for theatrical productions.
Fisher continued developing as a stage performer and eventually established himself in professional theater. One of his most demanding early roles was Muhammad Ali in the Off Broadway production Fetch Clay, Make Man. Preparing to portray the legendary boxer required substantial physical transformation as well as the ability to capture Ali's confidence and personality. The experience demonstrated the discipline Fisher could bring to a role before Hollywood audiences became familiar with him.
His major screen opportunity arrived when Zack Snyder selected him to play Victor Stone, better known as Cyborg, in the DC film universe. Fisher made a brief appearance in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice before receiving a much larger role in Justice League. Production changed significantly after Snyder left the project and Joss Whedon took over during post production. The theatrical version released in 2017 reduced much of Cyborg's original storyline.
In 2020, Fisher publicly accused Whedon of inappropriate and unprofessional behavior during the Justice League reshoots. WarnerMedia subsequently conducted an investigation after Fisher raised concerns involving the production. In December 2020, the company announced that the investigation had concluded and that remedial action had been taken, without publicly detailing what those measures involved.

Dakota Johnson's "Saturday Night Live" monologue was interrupted this week by the actress' "literal therapist," Taylor Swift, who bonded with the host over their shared experiences dating musicians who "don't wear shoes" and happen to be "terrible in bed."
Johnson kicked off her "SNL" run this week with a joke about her failed 2024 superhero movie "Madame Web," which she remarked she is still promoting because "it hasn't made any money yet." Afterward, the actress reflected on the other turns her life has taken since she last hosted "SNL."
"I went through two very public, very lame breakups with two very awesome musicians. Looking for a third," Johnson joked, referencing her splits from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and Role Model singer-songwriter Tucker Pillsbury. While she vowed not to talk anymore about her personal life, Johnson's monologue was derailed again after she noted that her new movie, "Verity," is a psychosexual erotic thriller.
"So is dating musicians. Some of them don't wear shoes. Some of them are terrible in bed. But all of them are in my DMs," Johnson said. "Some people leave concerts with merch, and I leave concerts with a two-and-a-half year relationship." Thankfully, Johnson said she has "good friends" who do not judge her for her dating choices.
Enter: Swift, whom Johnson called her "literal therapist," much to the former's discomfort. "I'm not your therapist, actually. You just show up once a week at my house with an empty bottle of wine and ask if I want some," Swift said.

Ruby Rose is widely known for her acting roles, including as the first lesbian superhero to play Batwoman. However, her life in the spotlight was not always easy, as she faced several personal struggles. Now, she has opened up about one of them, revealing that she was accused of murder at 15.
Recently, the Australian actress appeared on the Off the Vine podcast with host Kaitlyn Bristowe, where the two discussed several topics related to her life on and off screen. During the conversation, Ruby Rose revealed that she was wrongly accused of murder.
The actress, who was 15 at the time, explained that she went outside with her friend to have a smoke near the play equipment. At the time, she thought she saw a doll on the playground slide.
Rose said, "My friend and I locked eyes and we started walking towards it. As we got close enough, we could tell this was a real human."
"There was blood coming out of his ear, nose, mouth. It was very traumatic," she added.

Channing Tatum admitted that fatherhood sometimes forced him to drop the superhero act. The actor opened up about vulnerability after premiering Josephine at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The 46-year-old star played a father confronting trauma alongside his young daughter. His character's struggle also pushed Tatum to reflect on his relationship with his daughter, Everly.
PEOPLE reported that Tatum discussed fatherhood during a TIFF Q&A. He played Damien, a father trying to help his eight-year-old daughter after a traumatic event. Damien encouraged his daughter to learn self-defense while his wife, Claire, took another approach. The role apparently mirrored Tatum's own instinct to protect Everly from life's harder moments.
"It's a really tough thing to tell the little being that you love more than anything," Tatum said during the Q&A. He admitted he once told Everly, "I'm just not okay right now." The actor explained that parents often want children to see them as invincible. "You always wanna be like the strongest person, like the Superman in their life," he said. "Sometimes you just can't."
Tatum shares Everly with ex-wife Jenna Dewan. The former couple welcomed her in 2013 before separating in 2018. He had also recently reflected on how quickly Everly grew up. During a January appearance on Today with Jenna & Sheinelle, Tatum described returning from a two-week press trip.

Metcalf sits 34th among wide receivers in PFN's Week 1 rankings, which is what happens after the worst season of your career. The Falcons allowed seven receivers to clear 20 PPR points last season, so the setup is there, and so is the Michael Pittman theory. I'm going to be a week or two late to this party rather than early.
Let's call a spade a spade: Metcalf is coming off of the worst season of his career. His 850 yards were a new low-water mark and even that was inflated by two games where he had superhero singular plays that lifted his stat line (274 yards in games against the Ravens and Vikings, 576 in his other 13, good for just 44.3 yards per contest).
Aaron Rodgers is back at the helm and the team added Michael Pittman this offseason, a receiver who has effectively made a career off of what the Steelers asked of Metcalf in his first season with the franchise: short targets and hope.
SET YOUR LINEUPS: PFN's Free Fantasy Football Start/Sit Optimizer
Metcalf's 11.3 aDOT was, you guessed it, the lowest of his career, and featured just 24.2% of his looks coming deep downfield (15 or more yards), a rate that stood at 43.5% in 2024 with Seattle.

After a disappointing 3-14 campaign in 2025, the Jets get their 2026 season underway on Sunday afternoon, as they travel to face their former head coach Robert Saleh and his Tennessee ***** ans.
Plenty of changes have been made during the offseason, with many of the main building blocks still in place. These changes are not guaranteed to be effective, though and, if they backfire, it won't be long until we hear the familiar refrain of "Same Old Jets" from fans and media.
Here are five storylines to watch during the regular season...
For Geno Smith to return to the Jets organization after a decade away is improbable enough; especially given the ignominious nature of his departure. However, what would it be like if he could actually succeed in his second act?
"That would be like a story in a movie, right?" Smith has said, "Kind of like one of those superhero movies."

Tom Holland and Zendaya had a luxury getaway to ***** an planned, but their hectic promotional schedule left them too exhausted to enjoy it. Instead, they handed the luxury trip to Tom's parents, Dominic and Nicola Holland.
The couple has dated since 2021 and quietly tied the knot. They spent months promoting the latest superhero movie and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. Their packed schedules left them too exhausted to make the ***** an trip themselves. Comedian and writer Dominic Holland has now revealed how the couple turned their canceled getaway into a vacation for him and his wife.
His father narrated, as per Daily Mail, "So, you know that Tom had a few films out recently, he had The Odyssey out, then he had Spider-Man. And he's been tired; he's been working unbelievably hard. He and Zendaya have probably done twice around the globe to promote these films.
He continued, "They were tired. They'd probably done maybe 20, 10-hour flights." About three days after the London premiere, Tom told him they had a holiday planned in ***** an. Dominic said he told Tom, "That'll be nice, Tom. You'll enjoy it." But Tom admitted he was too tired to go. He told his father, "Dad, it's too far, and I'm too tired." Tom then came up with another plan and told Dominic he would send him and his mum, Nicola, instead.
Dominic joked that being Tom's father came with plenty of perks, including first-class travel and luxury hotels. However, he said the hotel and restaurant staff expected to see the Hollywood star, only to find Dominic instead. He said that even the famously polite ***** anese staff seemed disappointed when he arrived. Dominic added, 'The ***** anese are very polite and servile people, but even they went, "Hmm."' He then poked fun at his own career, saying, 'Typical of me — here's the thing… I've written 10 books and got exactly zero with me tonight, which sums up my career.'"

Steve Irwin died on 4 September 2006, aged 44, after a stingray fatally pierced his chest while he was underwater filming a documentary at the Great Barrier Reef.
Bindi, who was eight when her father died, called Steve a "superhero" in an online post on Friday, saying she has "watched the world mourn my dad with our family" for the past two decades.
"I always thought that my dad's legacy is wildlife conservation; it turns out, his legacy is love. For our planet and for each other," Bindi, 28, wrote on Instagram.

Ryan Reynolds, best known for playing the wisecracking superhero Deadpool in the Deadpool franchise, is about to hit a major milestone. During a recent interview, the Mayday star turned the conversation about ageing into a joke, leaving Kenneth Branagh to play along with his unexpected claims about cosmetic work.
Reynolds, who turns 50 in October, appeared with his Mayday costar Kenneth Branagh during an interview with Entertainment Tonight. When Ryan Renynold was asked, "You have a big milestone birthday coming up this October," he answered, "I do. I can say it: 50!" Then, while talking about his face, he pointed at it and joked, "This is scaffolding."
He then took the joke further, saying, "I had my lips done this morning and at lunch."
Branagh, 65, quickly joined in, suggesting that the alleged work had gone well only after a second attempt. He joked that "they got it right" on the "second" try.
The two actors are currently promoting Mayday, an action-comedy set in 1980s Russia. Reynolds plays Troy, a U.S. Navy pilot who becomes stranded in the Soviet Union after his plane is shot down. When he wakes up, he finds himself tied to a bed and under the control of Nikolai, a former Soviet spy played by Branagh.

Andrew Garfield is standing by his longtime belief that Spider-Man could be gay.
More than a decade after first proposing the idea, the "Amazing Spider-Man" star revisited his 2013 comments in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly. Garfield said his support for a more inclusive version of the Marvel superhero has not changed.
"I just still believe that anyone can be in that suit," Garfield told the outlet while promoting his upcoming historical drama, "The Uprising," which is set to arrive in theaters Sept. 11.
Garfield said his original remarks were partly an "exercise of rebellion" but reflected a belief he continues to hold. Spider-Man's widespread appeal, he argued, comes from the character's ability to represent people across different backgrounds and identities.

Sometimes the most memorable part of an outfit is hidden underneath. Designers have increasingly used contrasting linings to introduce unexpected flashes of color, transforming capes, coats, gowns and dramatic trains whenever they move. From Cate Blanchett to Anne Hathaway, several stars have demonstrated how a carefully chosen interior shade can turn an elegant red carpet look into something far more surprising.
Cate Blanchett delivered a memorable example at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival premiere of The Apprentice. Her custom Haider Ackermann for Jean Paul Gaultier strapless creation appeared predominantly black from the front, but revealed contrasting shades from other angles. A blush pink back and emerald green lining emerged as Blanchett lifted the train, giving the sophisticated design an unexpected injection of color.
Brie Larson used the same idea for superhero glamour at the London premiere of Captain Marvel. Her vivid blue Valentino gown featured an off the shoulder neckline, sculpted bodice and flowing cape. Hidden inside that cape was a shimmering gold lining, creating a dramatic metallic flash whenever the fabric moved. Nicole Kidman took a bolder approach at the New York premiere of Expats, where her sleek black Versace gown revealed a vivid lime green interior through its dramatic thigh high slit.
Helen Mirren offered a softer interpretation at the 2024 Golden Globes. Wearing Dolce & Gabbana, she paired an elegant lavender gown with a matching coat featuring voluminous sleeves. The coat's pink interior became visible as it opened, introducing another pastel shade while maintaining the sophistication of the overall look. Instead of competing with the lavender exterior, the contrasting lining gave the ensemble additional depth.
Anne Hathaway also embraced the technique with a playful maternity look at the Los Angeles premiere of The Last Thing He Wanted. Her custom Prabal Gurung ensemble centered on a blue satin high low top with a striking red interior. Paired with relaxed jeans and pointed red shoes, the contrasting colors framed her silhouette while bringing an unconventional energy to maternity dressing.

Sydney Sweeney dressed up as Wonder Woman in a daring latex-inspired costume for a recent getaway, while her boyfriend, Scooter Braun, coordinated as Superman. But instead of praising the couple's superhero-themed looks, some fans called the costumes "weird" and "cheap."
In an Instagram photo dump shared on August 22, the Euphoria actress gave followers a glimpse into her "Camp '26" getaway, which featured waterside obstacle courses, karaoke, boat rides, jet skiing and more.
The first photo showed the 28-year-old posing in a revealing red PVC-style Wonder Woman costume with a sweetheart neckline. The outfit featured a silver rope detail around the faux belt, while she completed the look with Wonder Woman's signature gold tiara.

In the mirror selfie, Sweeney held up her phone to take the photo while Braun, 45, stood behind her in a Superman costume, although the top of his head was cut off from the frame.

NEW YORK -- When you think of extraordinary characters from Queens, most people gravitate toward the ultra-popular crime-fighting, web-slinging superhero.
But on Tuesday night, San Diego had a superhero of its own — and it wasn't Peter Parker. For Mets fans, he was more like a supervillain. Fernando Tatis Jr. put on a performance worthy of the big screen, blasting two home runs and robbing a grand slam as the Padres defeated the New York Mets 5-2 at Citi Field.
The superstar right fielder wasted no time putting his superhero act on display, crushing the first pitch of the game from left-hander Zac Thornton 452 feet with an exit velocity of 113 mph for his 14th home run of the season. The 452-foot homer was Tatis Jr.'s fourth home run of at least 450 feet this season, leading the majors.
Following his no-doubt blast to put San Diego in front, Tatis Jr. saved Padres starter Robbie Ray from a disastrous second inning. With the bases loaded and two outs, Ray fired a 1-0 sinker that Francisco Lindor skied toward the right-field corner. Tatis Jr. chased it down, timed his leap perfectly at the wall and used his superhuman athleticism to take a grand slam away from the five-time All-Star shortstop.
Ray could only watch in disbelief.

Many in Hollywood and beyond were left stunned by news of the passing of multifaceted performer Hayden Panettiere at age 36, as reported Sunday night. The star had managed to excel at seemingly everything — from soap operas to superhero stories, singing and scream-queening, and so much more.
Panettiere's father, Skip, and other representatives confirmed her death late Sunday. A cause of death has not been announced, though Variety reports that the case is currently under investigation by the Greenville Police Department in conjunction with the Greenville County Coroner's Office.
"It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden. She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen," Skip Panettiere told ABC News.
Panettiere began acting when she was less than a year old, and her career saw her star in soap operas like "Guiding Light" and "One Life to Live," beloved series like "Heroes" and "Nashville," and major film franchises like "Scream" and "Bring It On." The star was also a Grammy and Golden Globe nominee. In nearly four decades in the industry, Panettiere did it all, and her many co-stars and collaborators were quick to share their memories and tributes upon her passing.
Academy Award winner Viola Davis, who starred alongside Panettiere in the 2016 courtroom drama "Custody," took to Instagram to share her memories of the fellow star. In an Instagram post, Davis wrote that Panettiere was "an old wise soul with such a deep heart."

Hayden Panettiere, the actor who rose to fame as the indestructible cheerleader Claire Bennet on the hit NBC series Heroes, has died at the age of 36. Her representative confirmed the news on Wednesday, sending shockwaves through Hollywood and among fans who grew up watching her evolve from a child star into a primetime mainstay.
A representative for Panettiere confirmed her death. A cause of death was not immediately released. "It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden. She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her — and to the millions who watched her onscreen," her rep said in a statement (via ABC News).
Hayden Panettiere possessed a rare longevity in an industry that often discards young talent. She began her career at just five years old, appearing in commercials before securing a four-year run as Sarah Roberts on the soap opera One Life to Live from 1994 to 1997. She followed that with a role as Lizzie Spaulding on The Guiding Light, making her a daytime television fixture before she reached double digits.
Her transition to film came swiftly. At age nine, she voiced a character in the animated Pixar feature A Bug's Life and appeared opposite Jennifer Aniston in The Object of My Affection. In 2000, she starred as the daughter of Denzel Washington's character in the sports drama Remember the **** ans.
In 2006, Panettiere landed the role that would define her career. Cast as Claire Bennet in Heroes, she became the emotional anchor of the superhero ensemble drama. The show's tagline, "Save the cheerleader, save the world," became a cultural catchphrase.

It's official: Sadie Sink is Jean Grey. After debuting her version of the Marvel superhero in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the actor made her first appearance representing the role with her new X-Men cast mates. And for the grand reveal—made at the D23 Disney fan event in Los Angeles—she wore an intricate archival gown from Alexander McQueen's theatrical Spring/Summer 2004 show.

The show in question was a high-fashion spin on Sydney Pollack's They Shoot Horses, Don't They?, a 1969 psychological drama that, based on Horace McCoy's 1935 novel, followed contestants desperate to win a Depression-era dance marathon. The faux competition, held during Paris Fashion Week over two decades ago, saw silver sequins, feather skirts, silk minidresses, and, towards the end, a pastel patchwork gown. Now seen on the Stranger Things star, the piece featured a V neckline and ruffled drop-waist skirt—all with a stained glass-inspired print of flowers and dragon flies.
Sink, who was passed the telekinetic torch from Sophie Turner, worked with stylist Molly ****** son on the look. Together, they paired the gown with Anita Ko jewelry and high cap-toe pumps.

Chris Hemsworth may be a fictional god in movies, but in real life, it seems the Marvel star is a superhero to his three kids: India Rose, born in 2012, and twin boys Sasha and Tristan, born in 2014. The actor, who has been married to wife Elsa Pataky since Dec. 26, 2010, previously told PEOPLE he wants to ensure his kids grow up with a strong moral compass.
"Financially, we're in a different position [than my parents], but I want to make sure they know these things don't come easy," Hemsworth said of raising his kids. "You have to work for it, and you can't take it for granted. Success is more about the values we have and the type of people we are, rather than the material objects that we might obtain."
From wild birthday festivities to precious nap times, see the cutest photos of Hemsworth, Pataky and their three children as the Thor actor celebrates his 43rd birthday.

When it comes to the Carolina Panthers, there are four greats who stand out above all others.
Cam Newton was the best quarterback in franchise history and their only Most Valuable Player award winner. Wide receiver Steve Smith captured the hearts of fans more than any other team legend. And the quiet giant Julius Peppers performed at a high level longer than anyone else.
All that being said, the guy who played his own position better than anyone else ever did was Luke Kuechly—arguably the best off-ball linebacker of his generation.
While his career was cut short due to head injuries, Kuechly was a one-of-a-kind competitor and performer. He was so special that he drew comps not to other all-time great defenders, but to comic book characters and superheroes.
The most common was Captain America, a decent comparison for Kuechly's class act off the field. On the field, he was more of a ferocious Wolverine, though - who had a bit of psychic ability thrown in for good measure.

Not everything your clients hear on the pickleball court is true.

That gap is often filled by Medicare myths and misconceptions that mislead retirees making coverage decisions, potentially resulting in excess costs or subpar coverage.

There's only so much Baltimore Ravens content to go around once we hit late June. Mandatory minicamp has come and gone. Training camp is still weeks away. The Ravens won't welcome rookies until July 24, before veterans report four days later. That leaves fans to survive on World Cup action. Workout videos, social media clips, and whatever breadcrumbs players choose to share provide the dessert.
Fortunately, Zay Flowers delivered one of those breadcrumbs.
The Ravens' Pro Bowl wide receiver recently shared a brief clip to his Instagram story showing himself and several workout partners attacking a steep hill during a series of sprint drills. The video lasted only a few seconds, but at this point in the NFL calendar, that's more than enough to grab Baltimore's attention.
Hill sprints have become something of a signature for NFL stars during individual workout sessions. Ravens running back Derrick Henry has made them famous over the years. Every offseason, videos surface of Henry powering his way up impossibly steep inclines, dragging teammates through grueling conditioning sessions that have become almost as legendary as his stiff arms during the regular season.
Flowers is doing a few sprints of his own. No, the Ravens receiver wasn't dragging trucks or performing some superhero-style feat of strength. The clip simply showed him putting in work while attacking a hill with several other athletes.

From Broadway and Big Brother to beauty routines and Bowie-inspired glam, Frankie Grande is ready to tell his story.
In Supergay!, his new memoir, Grande revisits the many versions of himself he tried on over the years — from frat brother, to Broadway performer, to the unapologetically flamboyant star fans know today. In the excerpt ahead, he uses superheroes and secret identities to explain how he got there.
To be your best superhero, you must have an alter ego to hide behind so people can't figure out who you are. Think Bruce Wayne, Peter Parker, King T'Challa, Steve Rogers, Diana Prince, Bruce Banner, the list goes on and on. Clark Kent isn't gay (that we know of) but his secret identity is about as well-hidden as a flaming ******* . All Clark Kent does is restyle his hair and throw on grandpa glasses and ******* ody has any idea who he is. And we just lean into that even though it's absolutely ridiculous, and we can all tell that Clark Kent is Superman. Just because you parted your hair differently, we're not supposed to know that's you? OK. Cool. Whatever you say.
This Clark Kent phenomenon happens to gay people a lot. Even if you're obviously gay, people just pretend you're straight because:
They don't want to be rude by ******* uming you're gay (but guess what, it's not an insult!);
They don't want to out you (fair);
They don't give AF; or
They're super religious and are praying the gay away in their heads.
