Voice Of John Redcorn In King Of The Hill Killed In Shooting
On Sunday night, San Antonio police officers were dispatched to a shooting outside a home around 7 p.m. local time. When police arrived, they discovered Joss near the edge of the road with multiple gunshot wounds. The officers attempted life-saving measures and called for medical support, but he was pronounced dead shortly after they arrived. Police are still investigating the shooting. TMZ, which was the first outlet to break the news, reported that Joss was shot by a neighbor after an argument turned violent.
Joss has voiced fan-favorite character John Redcorn, a Native American healer and musician, since King of the Hill's second season. Variety reports that he has already recorded his lines for the upcoming revival, which is set to arrive on Hulu this August. Redcorn will appear in the second episode of the show's upcoming 14th season and will likely appear a few more times before the new season ends. He also appeared in NBC's Parks & Recreation multiple times as Ken Hotate.
TMZ further reported that Joss had returned to his home on Sunday night after it had burned down in February, allegedly due to him using a BBQ pit. TMZ says that after he discovered the skeleton of one of his dogs, which had been killed in the fire in the remains of the home, he grew agitated and began ranting at others in the area. Reportedly, this was a common occurrence, according to TMZ. He allegedly got into a heated verbal confrontation with a neighbor in the area, who later returned and shot Joss multiple times.
The actor's husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, posted a lengthy statement on Facebook alleging that the people in their neighborhood had been threatening the couple for years over their relationship. The late actor's husband claims that when they returned to their burned-down home, a man approached them and yelled homophobic slurs before shooting Joss with a gun.
'He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other,' said de Gonzales.
Joss wasn't the first voice actor for John Redcorn. The original actor, Victor Aaron, voiced the character in the show's first season but died in a car crash. King of the Hill's new 14th season arrives this August, and Hulu recently released the show's intro, which includes John Redcorn.

Bill Belichick, North Carolina football docuseries coming to Hulu
It appears Bill Belichick's first season with North Carolina football will find its way on TV after all. A docuseries featuring Belichick and the Tar Heels is reportedly coming to Hulu, according to Front Office Sports on Friday, July 18. North Carolina was nearly the team to be featured this offseason on HBO's "Hard Knocks," a show that chronicles one NFL team during training camp each season. The Tar Heels would've been the first college program ever featured on the show, although the plans reportedly fell through just days before the show was set to be announced. REQUIRED READING: Bill Belichick says Jordon Hudson 'doesn't have anything to do' with North Carolina football Multiple reports added Belichick's girlfriend, 24-year-old Jordon Hudson, played an "instrumental role" in HBO moving away from North Carolina for "Hard Knocks," as she requested to be heavily involved in the docuseries. Belichick recently gave his answer on the potential "Hard Knocks" series during a podcast appearance with Ryan Clark on the "Pivot Podcast." 'Hard Knocks is training camp, and we're not training camp. We're just not,' Belichick said. 'That's not what we are. The drama of training camp, who's a cut and all that. Like, we're a season, and they don't want that. Yeah, there are film issues too, but forget about the film issues. Just say you could straighten all those out, Hard Knocks just didn't fit for us.' Belichick, 73, is a six-time Super Bowl champion head coach with the New England Patriots, which he coached from 2000-23. The 2025 season marks his first year coaching in college football, despite being the oldest head coach in Division I FBS. Belichick has been one of the largest subjects of discussion of the college football offseason, from his decision to coach at North Carolina to his relationship with Hudson. A docuseries by Disney-owned Hulu featuring Belichick and the Tar Heels is set to be appointment viewing for numerous college football fans.

'Invincible' just got a major update ahead of season 4 — and it's adding a new cast member
"Invincible" season 5 is officially greenlit. Yes, season 4 still won't be here until next year, but according to Variety, Prime Video has seen enough to renew its animated superhero show for another season — despite the fact that audiences haven't seen an episode of the show since the season 3 finale. But that's not the only "Invincible" news we've learned. In its report on the season 5 renewal, Variety also revealed that Matthew Rhys will be joining the cast in an undisclosed role — but I think I know who he's voicing. When "Invincible" creator Robert Kirkman's Skybound Entertainment announced that season 4 will debut sometime in 2026 via an Instagram post, that wasn't the only thing it revealed. The post also announced that "Thragg has been cast." A post shared by INVINCIBLE (@ A photo posted by on Thragg is a familiar name for fans of the "Invincible" comics. Also known as Lord Thragg or Grand Regent Thragg, he is the ruler of the Viltrumite Empire. Since his casting was announced, he's been expected by fans to serve as the main antagonist for Mark Grayson / Invincible going forward.

It's been expected that a bigger name will be cast to voice Thragg, and with the announcement of Rhys joining season 4 in an undisclosed role, I think we've just learned who Thragg is. To be clear, this is entirely speculation. But an actor of Rhys' caliber would make total sense to voice the villainous emperor. Malcolm has been with Tom's Guide since 2022, and has been covering the latest in streaming shows and movies since 2023. He's not one to shy away from a hot take, including that "John Wick" is one of the four greatest films ever made.
