"Our Leaders Are Expected To Set The Standard In Both Conduct And Accountability": The Company That Employs The CEO Who Was Called Out By Coldplay For Allegedly "Having An Affair" Has Issued A Statement
During a "kiss cam" moment at Coldplay's Boston concert this past Wednesday, the camera landed on a couple who had been then suddenly seemed to panic at being put on the screen. And let's just say, the whole situation was very awkward. @jennyquack / Here is the viral clip that has been viewed well over 53 million times. Chris Martin called them out, saying, "Either they're having an affair or they're just very shy." The moment has gone viral, and the pair has been identified as Astronomer's CEO Andy Byron and HR Chief Kristin Cabot. The internet has not held back its opinions on the matter, and now a formal statement by the company has been made. BuzzFeed spoke to Astronomer's Director of Communication Taylor Jones, who confirmed the statement is posted on LinkedIn and X. It reads, "Astronomer is committed to the values and culture that have guided us since our founding. Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability.

Set Photo From THE PUNISHER Reveals When the Marvel Special Presentation Takes Place — GeekTyrant
A new set photo from Marvel Studios' upcoming Punisher Special Presentation might have just confirmed when the story unfolds in the MCU timeline. Jon Bernthal first brought Frank Castle to life in Daredevil season 2 on Netflix, a performance so strong it launched his own two-season Punisher series in the Defenders Saga. After a highly anticipated return in Daredevil: Born Again in 2025, Bernthal is back once more in his own MCU spinoff. The Special Presentation, set to hit Disney+ in 2026, is now filming with Reinaldo Marcus-Green directing and co-writing alongside Bernthal. The latest detail comes from @_DaredevilShots on X, which shared a first-look image from the set. The photo shows a poster for a concert happening on Sunday, July 18, a date that only aligns with the year 2027. This strongly suggests that Frank Castle's next chapter takes place in that year, placing the Punisher story shortly after the events of Daredevil: Born Again season 1. Most of Born Again' s first season is set in early 2027, shortly after the New Year. With Season 2 expected in March 2026 and Bernthal appearing there as well, it seems the Punisher's solo outing happens just months later, in a New York City still under Mayor Wilson Fisk's oppressive rule. The MCU timeline has been a frequent point of debate since the five-year jump in Avengers: Endgame set the universe ahead of real time. Now, with 2026 releases taking place in 2027, Marvel is gradually catching up. If this pace continues, the timeline may sync with the real world by the time Avengers: Secret Wars arrives in 2027 to close out the Multiverse Saga. The Punisher Special Presentation doesn't have an official release date yet, but it's expected to premiere on Disney+ after Daredevil: Born Again season 2. Are you ready for Bernthal's Punisher to take center stage in the MCU once again?
