The ‘Spider-Man 2' Extended Edition Is Finally Swinging Into Theaters
Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man trilogy is heading back into theaters once more, but this time things will look slightly different for the webslinger. For the first time, the home-release exclusive extended edition of Spider-Man 2 will be part of the theatrical release.
Today Fathom Events announced that Sam Raimi's Spider-Man films will return to theaters for a limited time beginning September 26. All three movies will screen in 4K, but for the first time, the version of Spider-Man 2 hitting theaters is actually the 2007 extended cut of the film.
Put out on DVD in 2007 in the run-up to Spider-Man 3's release, Spider-Man 2.1 features eight minutes of new footage integrated into the theatrical cut, extending multiple sequences in the film while also including a few brand-new scenes and alternate takes. Including, yes, that deleted scene of J. Jonah Jameson putting on the Spidey suit in his office to strike a few poses.
The 2.1 cut has been available on home release ever since, including the Blu-ray releases of the trilogy, but the new theatrical run will mark the first time fans get to actually see it on the big screen. Maybe it'll make the wait for Brand New Day go a little quicker?
Tickets for the Spider-Man trilogy are available starting July 25 through Fathom Events, with screenings of the trilogy taking place on September 26, 27, and 28, and with a follow-up run on October 3, 4, and 5.

Valeriya Force Brings Tropical Passion With Her New Hit 'Thunder'
Tropical heat, Latin rhythm, and summer vibes. 'Thunder' by Valeriya Force is an English-language track made for movement and emotion. Out July 11. 'This song is for every woman who's ever danced in the rain and felt like she owned the sky.'— Valeriya Force HOLLYWOOD, FL, UNITED STATES, June 28, 2025 / / -- Valeriya Force to Release Summer Single 'Thunder' — A Dance of Passion and Power in the Florida Rain July 11, 2025 marks the release of a brand-new single from Valeriya Force — 'Thunder', a bold summer track infused with heat, sensuality, and feminine power. Blending Latin rhythms, tropical atmosphere, and emotional intensity, this record is a pulse of movement and liberation. The track is now available for pre-save: Born on the Road, in a Thunderstorm The song was born unexpectedly — during a drive from Miami to Sarasota. Rain poured outside, thunder cracked the skies, and suddenly a melody sparked in Valeriya's mind. That raw, vivid moment in the middle of the storm and highway became the creative ignition of 'Thunder.' A track built entirely on instinct, body, and freedom. What the Song Speaks 'Thunder' is a story of a woman who is no longer afraid. She doesn't perform or play nice. She moves with the rhythm of summer, owns her body, knows her desires, and doesn't apologize for her strength or sexuality. It's not a tale of surrender — it's a declaration: 'I am the thunder.' It is passion without drama. Power without aggression. Dance not for attention but for release. Her desire isn't vulnerability — it's her fire. She moves boldly, loves fiercely, and lives on her terms. Music That Feels Like Heat 'Thunder' is a vibrant fusion of Latin Pop, Dance, and Tropical Groove. The sound captures the post-rain heat of Miami — electric air, bodies in motion, skin sizzling, every beat syncing with the heartbeat. This track is crafted to be felt, not just heard. It doesn't play in the background — it takes over the moment. Behind the Sound: Production and Team 'Thunder' is the product of a creative partnership. Valeriya wrote the lyrics and melody, driven by pure intuition. The arrangement was created by Ukrainian producer Vlad Ustinov, delivering a rich, Latin-flavored atmosphere. Vocal recording was done in a home studio, with support from her husband Vladyslav Tkachenko, who coordinated the production process. Mixing and mastering were completed by Nikita Chena, known for his deep, textured audio work. Vladyslav Tkachenko also leads the business strategy of FORCEMUSIC INC, the independent label behind the release. He handles marketing, rollout, and vision. Valeriya Force is the creative powerhouse — not only the voice but the artistic mind behind the melody, mood, and emotion. This is not just collaboration — it's partnership. Vladyslav finds the sound. Valeriya feels and writes it. Together, they turn tracks into cinematic experiences. Why You Should Hear 'Thunder' This single is dropping at the peak of summer, right in Florida's rainy season. It sounds exactly like July in the tropics: hot, wet, sensual, and alive. This is music for nights alone, for rooftop parties, for dancing barefoot in your kitchen. For claiming your body. For expressing who you are without filters. For turning up the volume and letting go.

New Radicals Gregg Alexander Wins BMI Pop Award for "Murder on the Dance Floor" Two Decades After His mid-2000's Song of the Year "Game of Love" Performance Is Unearthed in a Storage Unit After a Family Tragedy
Watch Game of Love performed at BMI Awards from 2005. 'MURDER ON THE DANCEFLOOR' WAS ONE OF RADIO, TIKTOK AND STREAMING'S MOST PLAYED SONGS OF 2024 SPURRED ON BY A MEMORABLE APPEARANCE IN THE HIT FILM SALTBURN PER BIG HASSLE MEDIA LOS ANGELES, June 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Last month New Radical Gregg Alexander was honored at the BMI Awards in Beverly Hills, CA for his work co-writing the iconic copyright, 'Murder On The Dancefloor' watch. The song was initially a global hit in 2001 for his co-writer, Sophie Ellis-Bextor on her LP Read My Lips, and reached #2 on the UK singles charts in 2002. But last year it equaled its original chart position and saw a global resurgence due in large part to it being used in a pivotal scene, which Alexander coined to Billboard as the 'sadly oft true to life' Saltburn. The song was also covered by Interscope Aussie indie duo Royel Otis. Their version hit #1 on Billboard's Alternative Airplay chart and became one of Australia's biggest songs of 2024, whilst sparking a global bidding war. Alexander originally planned 'Murder On The Dancefloor' to be the 1st single for his band's critically acclaimed platinum debut, Maybe You've Been Brainwashed, Too. But after writing 'You Get What You Give' not only did 'Murder' not become a single it was abandoned for inclusion on their debut LP. But in March last year Alexander shared a snippet of his original 'Murder On The Dancefloor' demo in a viral Guardian interview just before 'soft releasing' his demo's full length version on DSP's in support of Kamala Harris the week she accepted the Chicago DNC Presidential nomination. The song also honored Doug Emhoff and Michelle Obama both sharing 'You Get What You Give' as their 'walk on' music at the DNC 's August, 2024 convention when they spoke in immediate succession. This year's BMI Award for 'Murder On The Dancefloor' coincides with Alexander winning the rights organization's coveted song of the year award two decades back for his Santana/Michelle Branch 'The Game Of Love', which also won a Grammy for best pop collaboration with vocals. This year's BMI song of the year winner was Benson Boone's 'Beautiful Things'. Alexander, who sadly lost his mom in March, was going through boxes and came upon a lost DVD of his band's only live 'hatless' performance of his mid 2000's Santana classic. A song both Tina Turner and Macy Gray sang, and Michelle Branch won a Grammy for, but Gregg's live version has never been seen online! Says Alexander: 'Sophie's 'Murder On The Dancefloor' resurgence tragically happened between 2024's untimely passing of my dad in mid-May and the following March loss of my heartbroken mom, as often happens when a family caretaker spouse unexpectedly passes. 'So after seven weeks by my mom's hospital bedside, alongside 'Unwritten' author and New Radical Danielle Brisebois and my big sister too, when the phone rang and BMI's Barbara Cane surprised me 'Murder' was winning a BMI award—-she also shared wise personal advice. 'Which is: anyone hospitalized can hear and feel you are there! So they will benefit from their fave music playin' and hearing words of support. So always speak aloud of life's best memories— because your loved ones can still hear you amidst your love and eminent security! 'This inspired me to drive to Public Storage to sift through dozens of 'boxes of memories.' Like 80's solo writing tapes and, to wax poetic, yoga-nurse bic pic lisa p GPP Municipal receipts! 90's reels and 'house bros' played 'Buisness!' loan gestures!? Even 2000's nut The Mob hoe 'JT5 bus assault toys!' Troll's racist voicemail rolls from years of yore—that's a quadruple rhyme! 'But most blessedly CD's of mom's fave 70's Carpenters tunes to play her—instead of the heart wrenching tapes my retch sobbing dad made weeks before passing. To frankly shed light on the 'disowned stalker heathen Aiuto,' to quote my dad and means 'Help in Italian!', and those will shake down hour vids ghostwriters visits dad encountered last May. 'So when I stumbled upon a DVD of Dani and my only New Rad-era filmed 'hatless' performance we felt a brief respite from those events. Us soon blastin' music at BMI's office whom christened it a sweet time capsule of my sarcastic 'No Mayo!' mom's fave song of mine, 'The Game Of Love.' 'Watch in memoriam of last month being the one year mark of my lovably unique dad Tony's passing. And honoring now above much missed BMI CEO Frances W Preston! And also with thanks for BMI's current 'sage advice' VP Barbara Cane (and my greatly missed mum Sharon!) please watch New Rad's one-off 'dancin' on the tables' song of the year performance from two decades back.
