On June 11, Netflix shared via X that it would release the Jerry
Jones
and Dallas Cowboys documentary series on August 19. They attached a stunning picture poster of black-goggled Jerry Jones at the center of the Cowboys' logo - The Blue Star with the back profiles of Cowboys legends RB Emmitt Smith, CB Deion Sanders, QB Troy Aikman, and WR Michael Irvin.
Netflix captioned it - The definitive story of Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys. America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys premieres August 19.
One fan commented - Oil money, star power, and Super Bowl dreams. This one's gonna be Texas-sized. Another wrote - Watch how I took a Super Bowl winning team into the toilet. Three championships in the cabinet, and a fourth one is still an impending dream for the 82-year-old American billionaire businessman Jerry Jones, but all everyone can remember is how he hasn't yet achieved his 'fourth' Super Bowl championship!

Jerry Jones' Netflix docu-series would take viewers from how he bought the Dallas Cowboys to how he turned it into an envious NFL team
On June 11, Marca reported that Netflix's Dallas Cowboys documentary series would feature QB Troy Aikman, RB Emmitt Smith, WR Michael Irvin, CB Deion Sanders, HC Jimmy Johnson, and HC Barry Switzer, and a special appearance by the former President of the United States of America, George W.
Bush.
The series would cover key milestones of Jerry Jones' life - when he revamped the Cowboys, his separation from longtime coach Tom Landry, and pairing with head coach Jimmy Johnson. His story would serve as a testament to achieving the three Super Bowl titles during times of industry innovation and brand expansion. It would primarily focus on how Jones bought the franchise and turned it into a royal authority, a monarchy, and an envious NFL team.

We are ALL watching this
This will be tough to watch as a Bills fan.
The only way Cowboys fans can see a championship this century
WON'T EVER WIN another SUPER BOWL!!!! They are serious about real estate but not about football🤦🏻‍♂️
This is one of those 'How Not to' videos
Get your popcorn ready 🍿
Ok this looks pretty cool. Can't wait to hear the reason for the Super Bowl drought we've gotten to live through as fans lol
Heck of a business man…. Still capitalizing on rings from 30 years ago
This doc is the only way Cowboys fans will watch a championship this century
So by the poster, it shows the years that basically Jimmy was running the show and then stops once Jerry started running it because nothing good happened since.
Why not wait until 2026—the 30th anniversary of the Cowboys' last Super Bowl? 😂
Spoiler alert. They won, then he did everything but make a winning football club for about 3 decades now
Can Jerry become a Gambler again for this Cowboys team??
Not watching until they re-sign @MicahhParsons11
The story about how Jerry Jones ruined a Champion Team
Can't win a Super Bowl so let's air a doc. about the days when we did😂😂😂
Subtitle: The man that ruined the Cowboys.
This alone would make me never pay for Netflix ever
F**k that. The Cowboys are not America's team. Just a bunch of losers in Texas.
Gotta be in the horror genre dunnit?

Unlike many of his peers, otherwise known as nepo kids of Bollywood who chose to become actors, Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan has chosen a different path for his career in the entertainment industry. Aryan decided to become a director very early in his life and soon, his first show, The Ba***ds of Bollywood, will debut on Netflix. Actor Manish Chaudhari, who worked with Aryan on the show, recently shared that Aryan came in with a lot of clarity and youthful energy when he started working on the show. In a chat with Radio Nasha Official, Manish shared that the release of the trailer is 'just around the corner.' When asked about his experience with Aryan, he called him him 'outstanding' and added, 'Aryan must be around 26-27 now. When we started working, he was around 24-25, and the amount of clarity that he came in with, and the amount of youthful energy of a mid-20s person, I was like…' He also praised Aryan's understanding of the craft of filmmaking and said, 'And to also have the craft to understand that because he has an education in filmmaking and he has come with that. So the foundation is very strong, the intent is very clear and how it has turned out, we will know very soon.'

Manish shared that when Shah Rukh introduced him to Zoya, he called him a 'ghaint actor.' 'He was standing with Zoya when I met him and he looked at Zoya and said, 'Did you meet Manish? He is such a ghaint (great) actor.' It was such a pleasure,' he recalled with a smile. The Ba***ds of Bollywood had a title reveal in February and it was rumoured to release in June. However, the release date, and the trailer of the series is yet to come out. Previously, Netflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos endorsed the show at the WAVES Summit 2025 and said, 'We have a show called The Ba***ds of Bollywood coming up that is really fun, and I am going to leave the audience to try to figure out the title completely, but it is so fun. I am four episodes in.' In the same chat, Saif Ali Khan added, 'I have to say I saw a little bit of that show as well, the one you just mentioned and it looked fantastic. My kids have done a little appearance in it.'

Did Oprah Winfrey not open her private road for tsunami evacuations in Hawaii?

American host Oprah Winfrey is at the centre of a social media storm, after claims that she blocked a private road on her Maui property during a tsunami evacuation. There was speculation that the route could have offered residents a faster escape route, as they scrambled to move to higher ground. Winfrey, however, has denied the claims. Here's what really happened read more Online users accused American host Oprah Winfrey of blocking access to a private road on her Maui property that could have offered residents a faster escape route during the evacuation. File image/Reuters As tsunami warnings rippled across the Pacific following a massive 8.8‑magnitude earthquake off Russia's eastern coast, American host Oprah Winfrey unexpectedly found herself at the centre of a social media storm. Online users accused the media icon of blocking access to a private road on her Maui property that could have offered residents a faster escape route during the evacuation. Posts on platforms such as X and TikTok claimed Winfrey either refused to open the road or was slow to do so as thousands scrambled to move to higher ground. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Winfrey has since dismissed the allegations, insisting that efforts to open the road to the public started soon after the tsunami warning was issued and denying any suggestion she had withheld access. Here's a closer look at how the claims spread and what actually happened. What were the claims? In the hours after the tsunami warning, social media erupted with posts accusing Winfrey of refusing to open a private road that runs through her Maui property. Many viral posts referred to it as the 'Oprah road', a route named after the American host, which connects the coastal town of Wailea to the elevated region of Kula, could have drastically reduced traffic congestion during evacuations. 'Look at this. I think they're trying to open Oprah's road. C'mon Oprah, save us… Everybody trying to get in. Cops trying to open it. Nope, still closed,' a man said in one widely shared video, in which the gates to the road could be clearly seen. Why hasn't Oprah opened her road? This could save lives… — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) July 30, 2025 STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD According to one user on X, the private road was eventually opened, allowing evacuees to reach safer ground. The opening itself became a talking point online, with another X user claiming it only happened after widespread public outcry. 'BREAKING: Following INTENSE public pressure, Oprah's private road has been OPENED to those escaping the tsunami WELL DONE, EVERYONE! It should've been opened HOURS ago, but if you're in Wailea on Maui and need to get to higher ground, USE OPRAH'S ROAD NOW! Haleakala Ranch Rd, Maui, HI,' the user wrote. 🚨 BREAKING: Oprah HAS NOT opened her private road from Wailea to Kula, Hawaii, which would allow coastal folks to reach higher ground quickly, locals tell me OPEN THE ROAD, @OPRAH! Roads on Maui are GRIDLOCKED as people try to escape the incoming Tsunami 'I'm stuck with my… — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) July 30, 2025 STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD ** ALSO READ | What caused 8.8 earthquake in Russia's Kamchatka?** Oprah denies the claims about blocking the road Winfrey's representatives swiftly moved to counter the accusations, calling them 'false and misleading.' According to Nicole Nichols, a spokesperson for Oprah Winfrey, the television host's team acted promptly upon learning of the tsunami threat. She stated that Winfrey's representatives immediately contacted both local law enforcement and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to ensure that evacuation routes, including the road in question, were accessible. 'Any reports otherwise are false,' Nichols told AFP, emphasising that the property owner and her staff prioritised public safety and worked directly with the relevant authorities to facilitate evacuation operations. Despite the online outrage directed at Winfrey, it turns out the road at the centre of the controversy does not legally belong to her. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD ALSO READ | Why Russia earthquake set off tsunami alerts across US Why it wasn't Oprah's call to open the road Although widely referred to online as 'Oprah's road,' the route isn't actually owned by Oprah Winfrey. The private road belongs to Haleakala Ranch, a 30,000-acre property that stretches from Maui's southern shoreline to its upcountry region. The ranch has been family-owned since the late 1800s, The Guardian reported. Winfrey holds an easement agreement with the ranch, which allows her to use and maintain the road. As part of that agreement, she paved it, but she doesn't control public access. According to Winfrey's spokesperson, the decision to open the road rested with Haleakalā Ranch. Ranch president Scott Meidell confirmed they consulted with Winfrey's land management team during the process. Waves slam into a seawall off Waikiki beach in Honolulu, Hawaii on Wednesday after authorities downgraded earlier tsunami warnings. Reuters Meidell said the ranch contacted Maui's fire department and emergency management officials shortly after 3 pm, and the road was opened around 5 pm Ranch staff helped evacuate about 150–200 vehicles, with the final convoy escorted by 7 pm. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Maui County later confirmed in a public advisory that the road was open, though further evacuations weren't needed beyond that point. This isn't the first time Winfrey has faced scrutiny over the same road. In 2023, during the Maui wildfires, false claims again surfaced suggesting she blocked public access. At the time, she and Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson launched the People's Fund for Maui, pledging $10 million. The fund had raised nearly $60 million by April 2024. Even earlier, in 2019, she had granted the county permission to use the road during a brushfire alert, though it ultimately wasn't needed. With input from agencies

AR Murugadoss breaks silence on Salman Khan's Sikandar box office debacle, reveals why it failed

Salman Khan's last release, Sikandar, turned out to be a big dud at the box office, with the film failing to impress both critics and audiences. Now, filmmaker AR Murugadoss has broken his silence on the film's underwhelming reception, sharing his perspective on what might have gone wrong. Sikandar tells the story of a man called Sanjay Rajkot, who takes on a corrupt politician, upending his life. AR Murugadoss introspects The filmmaker spoke about the film during the promotion of his upcoming project, Madharaasi, where he shared that he blamed his inability to understand Hindi as the reason behind the film's failure. AR Murugadoss said, 'When we make films in our mother tongue, it gives us strength. We know what is happening here. Today there's a trend going and suddenly the audience gets connected with that trend. When we shift language, we don't know what the youngsters are enjoying in that language. All we need is a script to believe it.' He added, 'For once, I can take up Telugu films, but Hindi may not work for us because after we write the script, they translate into English. Then it is again translated in Hindi. We can only guess what they are saying, but we are exactly not sure about what is happening. When you make film in an unknown language and place, it feels like you are handicapped. It is like you don't have hands. I strongly believe our strength depends on where and the culture we belong to.' About Sikandar Sikandar tells the story of a man called Sanjay Rajkot, who takes on a corrupt politician, upending his life. Helmed by AR Murugadoss, the action drama also featured Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, and Sathyaraj in key roles. With the film, Salman returned to the big screen for the first time since 2023 but failed to make a mark at the box office. Sikandar is Salman's first Eid release in two years. Sikandar was released in theatres on March 30. Despite receiving criticism for its direction and performances, the film managed to cross ₹100 crore at the box office and ultimately grossed over ₹200 crore worldwide. However, considering Salman Khan's standards, the film was deemed an underperformer at the box office. The film was also panned when it was released on Netflix in May.
