Review: In Deep Cover, Orlando Bloom is…hilarious?

Mashable - Thu, 06/12/2025 - 04:30

Are improv comedians perfect for undercover sting operations? It's the core question at the heart of Deep Cover from Stath Lets Flats director Tom Kingsley, a master of offbeat British comedy and a newcomer to the Hollywood action realm.

Boasting a big-name cast, a sharp and funny script by sketch comedy duo Ben Ashenden and Alexander Owen with Derek Connolly and Colin Trevorrow, impressive cross-London action sequences, and one of the funniest performances you'll ever see Orlando Bloom give, Deep Cover rides high on its uniquely specific premise. "Yes, and…" becomes the sharpest weapon in the undercover arsenal for its bumbling protagonists, three unlikely heroes who get better at the job the more they mess it up.

It's just a real pity most people will watch it on streamingDeep Cover really deserves an audience.

What is Deep Cover about? Credit: Peter Mountain / Metronome Film

Action comedies revolving around a team of socially overlooked misfits thrown into the deep end are the stuff popcorn is made for. Cycling a ride-share bike straight into a crowded genre canal, Deep Cover has an instantly intriguing pitch: Three improv actors down on their luck are recruited for a sting operation from wisened Detective Sergeant Billings (an always on-form Sean Bean). Bryce Dallas Howard is Kat, an improv teacher whose friends downplay her creative success. Orlando Bloom plays Marlon, an aspiring actor who takes himself extremely seriously despite being best known from his "Pizza Knight" commercials. And Nick Mohammed is downtrodden accountant Hugh, who tells his boss where to go in a desperate moment of peer pressure.

The art of making it up as you go along evolves into pure chaos in Deep Cover, as Kat, Marlon, and Hugh are empowered to think on their feet to get the dirt on London gang leader Fly (a frankly delightful Paddy Considine in Guy Ritchie mode) and his stylish, no-nonsense 2IC Shosh (fellow House of the Dragon star Sonoya Mizuno). But there are always bigger fish to fry, with big boss Metcalfe (a terrifyingly toothy Ian McShane) becoming Billings' true white whale.

It's a clever plot device from the writers, leaning on improv as the one skill that hopefully will get these three into the big leagues and out again unscathed — and the word "skill" here is open to interpretation, as Marlon, Kat, and Hugh somehow pull off mission after mission while striking out. Impossibly, they're so bad at the job they're brilliant at it, somehow perfecting the art of the bluff while in free fall.

Orlando Bloom steals the show in Deep Cover. Credit: Peter Mountain / Metronome Film

As an actor, Bloom isn’t widely known for his comedy chops, unless you’ve plundered the behind-the-scenes reels of The Lord of the Rings franchise . Deep Cover sees Bloom taking the absolute mickey out of his craft as a drama school-trained Serious Actor, overly dedicated to method, irritated by anyone who causes him to break character, and determined to "plumb the depths of the human condition."

Bloom's Marlon crafts nonsensical backstories for his undercover character, a Manchester rogue he dubs Roach and develops throughout each mission. "It's time to take revenge for what happened in Milan," he declares before an op, giving no context whatsoever but meaning every word. 

Bloom's over-the-top theatricality pairs with Mohammed's awkward deadpan comedy as Hugh, who finds his underworld identity as "The Squire" a hilariously uncomfortable fit, and Howard's pragmatic Kat, the only professional improviser here and one who falls into criminal mode with unsettling ease. Attempting to wrestle the comedic spotlight back from the core trio are writers Owen and Ashenden, who appear in the film as detectives Beverley and Dawes, the former of whom constantly behaves like he's in a cop movie, aggravating the latter to comedic effect.

Hopefully, these comedic moments translate to the small screen, which will be how most viewers catch the film on Prime Video.

Deep Cover is best with a crowd, unfortunately. Credit: Peter Mountain / Metronome Film

Watching Deep Cover with an audience feels like the best way to watch it, though it's unlikely this will be how many people do. Seeing its global premiere in a full Barbican cinema at SXSW London, the film deserved such a spirited reaction, with Bloom's performance in particular getting the most laughs. As it's being streamed on Prime Video without a cinematic release, I’m unsure whether the silliness and comedy beats will land in the same way.

Nonetheless, Deep Cover embodies the pure fun of making it up as you go along in the hands of British comedy and Hollywood stars alike. Are improv comedians perfect for undercover sting operations after all? It depends how clean you'd like the job to be, and Kingsley's film thrives in the mess.

Deep Cover was reviewed out of its world premiere at SXSW London and will debut on Prime Video June 12.

Mashable - Thu, 06/12/2025 - 03:45

Connections: Sports Edition is a new version of the popular New York Times word game that seeks to test the knowledge of sports fans.

The NYT's latest daily word game has launched in association with The Athletic, the New York Times property that provides the publication's sports coverage. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that's captured the public's attention. The game is all about finding the "common threads between words."

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today's Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

If you're reading this, you're looking for a little help playing Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game.

Strands requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

Mashable - Wed, 06/11/2025 - 22:00

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

A bottomless pit of plagiarism: Disney takes on AI image generator Midjourney in scathing lawsuit

Mashable - Wed, 06/11/2025 - 19:14

In a lawsuit filed Wednesday in a Los Angeles federal court, entertainment giants Disney and Comcast’s Universal have teamed up to take on Midjourney, the generative AI image platform, accusing it of copyright infringement on a massive scale.

The at-times blunt lawsuit doesn’t mince words, arguing that Midjourney is a “bottomless pit of plagiarism.”

The complaint claims Midjourney effectively raided the studios’ libraries, illegally training its AI to generate uncanny recreations of iconic characters like Star Wars’ Darth Vader and Frozen’s Elsa, without so much as a licensing deal or permission. NBCUniversal’s Executive Vice President and General Counsel, Kim Harris, told Reuters the case is about protecting “the hard work of all the artists whose work entertains and inspires us and the significant investment we make in our content.”

By helping itself to Plaintiffs’ copyrighted works, and then distributing images (and soon videos) that blatantly incorporate and copy Disney’s and Universal’s famous characters—without investing a penny in their creation—Midjourney is the quintessential copyright free-rider and a bottomless pit of plagiarism,” the suit argues, according to a copy of the suit obtained by Deadline. “Piracy is piracy, and whether an infringing image or video is made with AI or another technology does not make it any less infringing. Midjourney’s conduct misappropriates Disney’s and Universal’s intellectual property and threatens to upend the bedrock incentives of U.S. copyright law that drive American leadership in movies, television, and other creative arts.”

Mashable recently tested the top AI image generators, and our testing revealed that Midjourney readily produced deepfake images featuring a recognizable Disney character. In fact, every single AI image generator we tested produced a similar deepfake with little to no resistance.

Midjourney’s legal defense isn’t off to a promising start, either. The suit cites a 2022 Forbes interview in which Midjourney founder David Holz casually admitted that the company doesn’t bother getting consent from living artists or anyone whose work remains under copyright. The quote, now immortalized in the court filing, could come back to haunt the AI company.

"There isn’t really a way to get a hundred million images and know where they’re coming from," the founder told Forbes. "It would be cool if images had metadata embedded in them about the copyright owner or something. But that's not a thing; there's not a registry."

This isn’t Midjourney’s first brush with legal heat. A year ago, a federal judge in California found that a group of 10 artists suing Midjourney, Stability AI, and others had plausibly argued their copyrighted work was scraped, stored, and potentially monetized without approval. That lawsuit is still making its way through the courts, as are similar suits against OpenAI and Meta. While Disney and Universal are some of the first Hollywood studios to take on the AI industry, the New York Times, along with a growing list of news organizations, has sued OpenAI.

For now, the issue of copyright law and AI training remains in a legal grey area, which means the Disney and Universal lawsuit could have big implications for the wider generative AI field.

Founded in 2021, Midjourney makes money through paid subscriptions and, according to the studios, brought in $300 million in revenue last year.

Disclosure: Ziff Davis, Mashable’s parent company, in April filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.

Would The Life of Chuck cast and director Mike Flanagan open the death door?

Mashable - Wed, 06/11/2025 - 17:49

The Life of Chuck is a story of life, love, dance, and death. Adapted from a Stephen King novella by horror auteur Mike Flanagan (Midnight Mass, House of Usher), the new film brandishes a star-studded cast including Tom Hiddleston, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Karen Gillan, Mia Sara, Benjamin Pajak, Annalise Basso, and Mark Hamill. Mashable Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko spoke to the lot about one particularly eerie element of this critically heralded film.

In The Life of Chuck, the titular character, Chuck Krantz, discovers there's a door in his childhood home that, if opened, reveals a premonition of death. It could be that of a loved one or your own. So, if presented with such a terrible temptation, would you open the door?

Flanagan was quick to admit he would, saying, "I wouldn't be able to help it!" Gillan called it "the ultimate spoiler" before deciding "my answer is no to that." Ejiofor, who plays her ex-husband in the film, agreed. "If there's nothing you can do about it," he explained, "Then why?"

Benjamin Pajak, who plays a young Chuck opposite his onscreen grandfather Mark Hamill, was torn, suspecting it would depend on the moment of this temptation.

Hiddleston, who plays the grown Chuck, mused, "The challenge is not to open the door, but to live with what's behind the door. Which is that none of us are getting out alive."

Hear the full answers from the cast in the video above.

The Life of Chuck is now playing in theaters everywhere.
