Anthony Mackie re‑creates his viral meme dance on Jimmy Fallon
Marvel star Anthony Mackie brought his signature meme swagger to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week, delighting both fans and Fallon himself. The clip, teased on X ahead of the broadcast, shows Mackie humorously mimicking his own iconic 'hands-on-head' dance—an internet-famous GIF that originated from a 2016 Captain America press junket. The meme took off years ago but rose to fresh popularity on platforms like TikTok and X in early 2025, capturing fans with its infectious energy. Now, the actor's own appearance on Fallon's couch brought that viral moment full circle, as he popped up from his seat and reenacted the exact move with flair. Fallon's reactions—laughter, cheer, and admiration—added to the charm of the moment. 'The meme came full circle and we're here for it 😭🔥 Anthony Mackie stays iconic!' — 𝕄𝕕.𝔸𝕫𝕒𝕞 🇮🇳 محمد اعظم (@tanjirulislam71) July 24, 2025 Anthony Mackie bringing back his iconic meme pose is pure nostalgia and internet gold! 🔥👏 — Emperor (@Madhav1192) July 24, 2025 Anthony Mackie just dropped his iconic meme pose again — and it's still gold 😂 Meanwhile, @dangoXchg is doing the same for data ownership — making the internet fun and fair. — Jejak Kripto (@jejakkripto) July 24, 2025 The surprise recreation has sparked cheers across social media, with comments celebrating Mackie's ability to poke fun at his own internet fame while connecting with fans who originally shared the meme. This on‑air callback cleverly merges Hollywood star power with meme culture, reinforcing how digital moments can transcend platforms—and still light up late-night television. With this stunt, Mackie reminded fans why he's beloved both on screen and online. Whether donning the Falcon suit or shuffling across a late-night couch, Anthony Mackie continues to prove he's got the moves—and the sense of humor—to match.

After Stephen Colbert's firing, here's who shines on late-night TV
Times are hard in the world of late-night TV, as evidenced by the shocking July 17 announcement that CBS's "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" will end its 10-year run in May. Declining profits and viewership, combined with rising costs (and often frequent jabs at a sensitive president), have made the late-night talk show host one of the country's more precarious jobs. Yet each week, Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart and others hit the stage to comment on world events, speak to star guests, and make America laugh. Here's who's still kicking it, late-night style. 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' The Show: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" is filmed before a live audience in New York City's historic Ed Sullivan Theater, airing on CBS four nights a week. The Run: Colbert, 61, took over "The Late Show" in September 2015 from previous host David Letterman. Earlier, he was a correspondent on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" and took his conservative-blowhard persona to a spinoff series, "The Colbert Report," which aired from 2005-14. Fun Fact: CBS might have canceled Colbert and "The Late Show" franchise, but the host still has 10 months to rock some late-night comedy. And from the looks of it, already, it's going to be wild. 'Late Night with Seth Meyers' The Show: NBC's "Late Night" is shot at Studio 8G at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York City, near Meyers' previous Studio 8H home as "Weekend Update" host on "Saturday Night Live." The Run: Meyers, 51, has been the host of "Late Night" for more than 11 years, taking over the job in February 2014 from Jimmy Fallon, who was promoted to "The Tonight Show." Fun Fact: The "Late Night" in-house band, The 8G Band, was cut due to budget reasons at the end of Season 11 in May 2024. 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' The Show: "SNL" alum Fallon hosts "The Tonight Show" in Rockefeller Center's Studio 6B. The Run: Fallon, 50, has been at "The Tonight Show" since February 2014. Fallon is the sixth host of the storied franchise, and took over the role after Jay Leno's second tenure. Fun Fact: In 2024, Fallon was the last late-night host to shorten his week to four days, in another cost-cutting move. 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' The Show: ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" is the last late-night show to be shot in Los Angeles, taped on Hollywood Boulevard in the building formerly known as the Hollywood Masonic Temple. The Run: Four-time Oscars host Kimmel, 57, has hosted "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" since January 2003. ( Kimmel takes summers off, and guest hosts are filling in through Labor Day.) Fun Fact: Despite its title, "JKL" has not aired live since its first season. 'Last Week Tonight With John Oliver' The Show: "Last Week Tonight" is filmed at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York City and airs on HBO Sundays (11 ET/PT). The Run: Former "senior British correspondent" on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show," Oliver, 48, has hosted the satirical "Last Week Tonight" since April 2014. Fun Fact: Oliver's weekly HBO series won the best talk show Emmy for seven consecutive years starting in 2017, prompting an awards split into two categories – talk show and scripted variety series – to give more traditional talk shows a shot at winning. 'The Daily Show' The Show: Jon Stewart serves as Monday's "The Daily Show" host on Comedy Central with a rotating cast of other hosts including Ronny Chieng, Jordan Klepper, Michael Kosta, Desi Lydic and new host Josh Johnson. The Run: Stewart, 62, replaced Craig Kilborn, serving as the "The Daily Show" host from January 1999 to August 2015, and returned as the Monday "The Daily Show" host in February 2024. Fun Fact: Stewart's return marked the first time a former long-term late-night host returned – not just for a cameo, but as an "appointment viewing" weekly fixture. 'Gutfeld!' The Show: Greg Gutfeld's "Gutfeld!" is shot five nights a week at New York City's Fox News headquarters. The Run: Originally titled "The Greg Gutfeld Show," airing on Saturday nights, Fox News Channel moved the satirical look at current events to weeknights starting in April 2021 and renamed it "Gutfeld!" Fun Fact: Late night's highest-rated show, averaging 3.1 million viewers, has one major fan – President Trump, who appeared on "Gutfeld!" in September 2024, earning the show's record audience of 4.9 million viewers.

Celtic's '12th Lisbon Lion' John Fallon dies aged 84
Fallon was the only Celtic substitute when Jock Stein's side beat Inter Milan 2-1 in the Portuguese capital to win the European Cup in 1967. The Cambuslang-born goalkeeper joined Celtic in 1958 and made almost 200 appearances over a 14-year period. He played in the team that kick-started Celtic's trophy success under Stein with victory over Dunfermline in the 1965 Scottish Cup final and went on to collect 14 winners' medals in total before leaving for Motherwell. He also had a brief spell with Morton before retiring. A statement from the Scottish champions read: 'His love for Celtic, however, was a constant throughout the years, and he followed the club at home and away for the rest of life. 'His passing comes as a great sadness to us all, and the thoughts and prayers of everyone connected with Celtic Football Club are with his family and friends at this sad time.' Fallon was reunited with his European Cup winners' medal in 2019, having lost it in the wake of the final. The memento was donated to Celtic, who returned it to its rightful owner. Speaking at the time, Fallon told the Celtic website: 'We were wading through scores of fans to get off the park and into the dressing room. It's such a great memory. 'We'll never forget it, and it's something everyone should be proud of. For the Celtic supporters, we gave them something to look at that nobody else could.' Fallon attended the funeral of fellow Lisbon Lion John Clark last month.

Wednesday's briefing: Lionesses do it the hard way while Rangers start with win
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace took their Europa League fight to the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Lionesses leave it late England produced another remarkable comeback to scrape into the final of Euro 2025. The Lionesses, who came from two goals down to defeat Sweden on penalties in the quarter-finals, were on the brink of elimination against Italy before 19-year-old striker Michelle Agyemang equalised in the sixth minute of added time. With a minute remaining in extra time, fellow substitute Chloe Kelly sent Sarina Wiegman's side through by finishing on the rebound after her penalty was saved by goalkeeper Laura Giuliani. England, who trailed to Barbara Bonansea's 33rd-minute opener, will face Spain or Germany in Sunday's final in Basel. Football mourns Jones and Fallon We are deeply saddened by the passing of Joey Jones, aged 70. — Liverpool FC (@LFC) July 22, 2025 Tributes were paid to former Liverpool and Wales defender Joey Jones and ex-Celtic goalkeeper John Fallon. Jones, who died at the age of 70, was capped 72 times by Wales and won two European Cups, a UEFA Cup and a league title at Anfield, in addition to representing Wrexham, Chelsea and Huddersfield. Celtic later announced the death of Fallon – the 12th Lisbon Lion – at the age of 84. He was the club's sole substitute when Jock Stein's side beat Inter Milan 2-1 in the Portuguese capital to win the European Cup in 1967. Martin makes winning start Substitute Djeidi Gassama sealed Rangers' win (Andrew Milligan/PA) Ibrox roared as Russell Martin's first competitive game as Rangers boss brought an encouraging 2-0 win over 10-man Panathinaikos. Maiden goals for the Scottish club from 19-year-old winger Findlay Curtis and debutant Djeidi Gassama settled the first leg of the Champions League second round qualifier. Former Southampton boss Martin, who became the permanent successor to Philippe Clement in early June, could easily have seen his new side fall behind as the Greek visitors bossed most of the first half. But Curtis fired Rangers into a 52nd-minute lead before his replacement Gassama – signed last week from Sheffield Wednesday – added a thunderous second following the dismissal of Panathinaikos right-back Giorgos Vagiannidis for a second yellow card. Palace await their European fate Crystal Palace qualified for the Europa League by winning last season's FA Cup (Nick Potts/PA) Crystal Palace will learn no later than August 11 which European competition they will play in next season after submitting an appeal to the CAS. The south London club, who won last season's FA Cup, were demoted from the Europa League to the Conference League after falling foul of UEFA's rules governing multi-club ownership. European football's governing body determined that as of March 1, American businessman John Textor had control or influence in both Palace and French club Lyon. Where one or more club are found to have shared ownership, they cannot play in the same competition. Lyon held on to the Europa League spot by virtue of their higher league position, while Palace's place was taken by Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest. What's on today England will discover their Euro 2025 final opponents when world champions Spain take on Euro 2022 runners-up Germany in Zurich.
