Influential rock ‘n’ roll icon Duane Eddy dead at 86

Rockstar has confirmed Grand Theft Auto 6 is still coming in 2025 after rumours of delays.Late last year, Rockstar announced that Grand Theft Auto 6 would be released at some point in 2025 and shared a record-breaking trailer.However since then, updates have been few and far between. In March, the studio scrapped remote working, with many devs saying they’d been “left in limbo” following the rule change.The following month, Grand Theft Auto publisher Take-Two Interactive laid off hundreds of staff and cancelled a number of titles as part of a “cost reduction program” that they hoped would “identify efficiencies across its business and enhance the company’s margin profile, while still investing for growth”.

Following the incident, Smith apologised to Rock, resigned from the Academy, and was banned from attending Academy events for 10 years.Smith later released another apology on YouTube in July 2022 where he described his behaviour as “unacceptable”, adding: “I just didn’t realise, I wasn’t thinking about how many people got hurt in that moment.”Now, speaking on an episode of Fly On The Wall podcast, Seinfeld spoke about an original scene he wanted to include in his new Netflix movie that parodied the infamous moment.The film, which references the creation of the Pop Tart, sees Seinfeld star alongside Melissa McCarthy, Jim Gaffigan, Hugh Grant, Amy Schumer, Max Greenfield, Christian Slater and Bill Burr.Of his desire to recreate the moment, Seinfeld said: “The other thing I wanted to do that I almost did was Chris Rock was going to be the emcee of the Bowl & Spoon Awards”, which is a fictional awards show that honoured the best in breakfast cereals.He continued: “And we shot that right after the Will Smith slap.

Grand Theft Auto studio Rockstar may finally be bringing Red Dead Redemption to PC, if a recent datamine is to be believed.Rockstar Games dataminer Tez2 shared a screenshot to X/Twitter noting “It looks like Rockstar is gearing up to release #RDR1 on PC.” The screenshot contained text that appears to contain marketing copy for a PC port of the 2010 third-person cowboy game.

Comedian turned filmmaker Jerry Seinfeld has been courting controversy of late with some of his seemingly glib opinions and comments in the run-up to the promotion of his Netflix Pop-Tarts movie, “Unfrosted” (read our review). Seinfeld already rattled some with some seemingly flippant comments, proclaiming “the movie business being over” and how the “extreme left” was ruining the state of TV and comedy.

“Fly on the Wall” podcast with Dana Carvey and David Spade, Jerry Seinfeld said that in his directorial debut “Unfrosted” (now streaming on Netflix), he wanted Chris Rock to do a parody of the infamous Will Smith Oscars slap from the 2022 ceremony. “The other thing I wanted to do that I almost did was Chris Rock was going to be the emcee of the Bowl & Spoon Awards — and we shot that right after the Will Smith slap,” Seinfeld explained, referring to a scene in “Unfrosted.” “I was going to have somebody come up on the stage and have Chris punch ’em out as they got there.”But, Seinfeld added that so soon after the event, Rock “wasn’t up to perform.” Following the infamous moment when Smith slapped Rock at the live broadcast, Rock laid low from the limelight for a while, and Smith was banned from the Oscars for 10 years.
