July 7 (UPI) -- Superman star David Corenswet is set to read a children's story on CBeebies Bedtime Stories Friday.
Corenswet, 31, will read What Does Daddy Do?, written by Rachel Bright.
"Dexter's daddy is a fireman, Rosie's daddy is a doctor, but Daisy's just not sure what her daddy does all day," an official synopsis reads. "She knows he has 'mountains of paperwork to climb,' and he always has to 'fly' and his boss is a dragon - but can he really be an explorer super knight?"
Snow White's Rachel Zegler and Bridgerton's Charithra Chandran read stories on the show in March. Other past celebrities to read stories include Idris Elba, Kylie Minogue, Billie Eilish and Chris Hemsworth.
Corenswet portrays the iconic Clark Kent in the upcoming Superman film, due in theaters Friday. The feature is directed by James Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy) and also stars Rachel Brosnahan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Edi Gathegi and Nicholas Hoult.

Watch: 'Shiny Happy People' Season 2 trailer explores secrets of Teen Mania
July 8 (UPI) -- Prime Video released a trailer for Shiny Happy People: A Teenage Holy War, a documentary series delving into the secrets of the Teen Mania youth ministry group. The three-part series, from creators Nicole Newnham and Cori Shepherd, marks the second season of Shiny Happy People, after the filmmakers previously profiled the Duggars in 2023's Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets. Season 2 explores the secrets and controversies of Teen Mania, which was once the largest Christian youth organization in the United States. "Teen Mania captivated a generation of fervent evangelical Millennial kids with adrenaline-fueled, ecstatic religious experiences through 'Acquire the Fire' rallies," the official synopsis reads. "But beneath the glittering surface lurked sadistic boot camps, staged martyrdom drills and fascism disguised as faith -- transforming innocent teens into fanatical soldiers, with devastating consequences still unfolding today." Shiny Happy People: A Teenage Holy War premieres July 23 on Prime Video.

The ‘Bridgerton' Collector's Edition Books Are on Major Sale for Prime Day
We are in a major Bridgerton television drought right now, and I am feeling the pain. The show is not coming back until next year, making it almost two years between season 3 and 4. That is a crime! Thankfully, we have the books to keep us busy in the meantime, which means you can read ahead for spoilers, or reread if you're already a fan. While yes, you could opt to buy the traditional, mass-market paperback versions of the books (fine, normal, okay), you could also treat yourself to the collector's edition versions of each (chic, pretty, will look good on your shelf). The collector's edition versions are legit stunning. They have sprayed edges and a ribbon bookmark. Dear gentle reader, you will love them. And the best part is they're all basically half off for Prime Day. Each book has two of the Bridgerton stories in it, btw, so you only have to buy four special edition books to get the entire series. Now that's a deal! If physical books aren't your jam, there's also a great deal on Kindle Unlimited. You can get your first three months for free. SUBSCRIBE TO KINDLE UNLIMITED
