Whether it's whipping up gourmet deep dish pizza or staging a fake Chicago snowstorm, The Bear's Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) loves to surprise his customers. That love of surprises apparently extends to Moss-Bachrach himself, as he announced Tuesday on Instagram that The Bear has dropped a surprise episode, written by Moss-Bachrach and co-star Jon Bernthal.
SEE ALSO: 2026 Summer TV preview: Every TV show you need to know about nowThe surprise installment, titled "Gary," is a flashback episode following Richie and Mikey (Bernthal) on a work trip to Gary, Indiana. The Bear creator Christopher Storer directed.
"Making this was a dream come true," Moss-Bachrach wrote on Instagram. "Thanks to the beautiful people of Gary, Indiana and as always Chicago, Illinois.

When is The Bear Season 5 coming out?"Gary" might serve as a sweet amuse-bouche to tide viewers over until The Bear Season 5, but when exactly can we expect that main course? FX hasn't yet confirmed an exact release date, but the season will be premiering in June. Season 5 will be The Bear's last, picking up after the Season 4 finale, when Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) quit the restaurant entirely and turned the reins over to Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie, and Natalie (Abby Elliott).
The Met Gala has always been fashion’s biggest stage, but in 2026, it might also be its most online.
This year's dress code, "Fashion Is Art," tied to the museum's new Costume Institute exhibition opening May 10, set the tone for a night where the line between garment and gallery piece all but disappeared. Think painterly gowns, sculptural silhouettes, and references that felt pulled straight from museum walls. Sometimes reverent, sometimes a little chaotic.
SEE ALSO: The 2026 Met Gala was haunted by Jeff BezosAs is customary in 2026, within moments of each arrival, looks were dissected, memed, and debated across social media. This is the night where couture becomes conversation; where a single outfit can spark a thousand hot takes; and where the group chat verdict ("wait… I kind of love it?") matters just as much as the designer tag.
Because let's be honest, the most memorable looks aren't always the "best" in the traditional sense. They're the ones that make you pause mid-scroll. The ones that prompt a double take, a screenshot, a frantic voice note. The "WTH is she wearing??" of it all, delivered with just enough conviction to turn confusion into intrigue.
From optical illusions to high-drama art references and full-on character work, this year's standouts leaned all the way in. These are the looks that owned the timeline.
Hudson Williams Credit: Michael Buckner/Penske Media via Getty ImagesFresh off his appointment as a face of Balenciaga, Heated Rivalry star Hudson Williams arrived in a baby blue two-piece that flirted with theatricality — part matador, part modern-day provocateur. The jacket hung open to reveal a bare chest layered in diamond jewelry, while a sweeping black cape added just enough drama.
While some nitpicked the tailoring, the look was a hit with fans, with the actor's updates account mooning over it on main: "Will never get over him..."

Chase Infiniti Credit: Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesHollywood ingenue Chase Infiniti delivered one of the night's most intricate illusions in a custom Thom Browne gown. The trompe-l’œil design referenced the Venus de Milo, transforming classical sculpture into something fluid and red-carpet–ready. Embroidered with more than 1.5 million sequins, the dress shimmered with every step.
Some of the words online spectators used to describe the look are "stunning" and "gorgeous" (correct!).
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.The dress is less a garment than a feat of craftsmanship, and a quietly commanding debut on fashion's biggest stage.
Jisoo from BLACKPINK Credit: Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesFor her Met Gala debut, Jisoo didn't just show up; she crystallized a moment. Joining bandmates Jennie, Lisa, and Rosé on the carpet, Jisoo stood out in a custom Dior gown by Jonathan Anderson that looked like an Impressionist painting brought to life. One creator on X complimented the look as a "lovely Met debut."
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Washed in soft pinks and lavender with delicate floral detailing, the dress evoked the dreamlike quality of Claude Monet's work: romantic, atmospheric, and unmistakably her. A longtime Dior ambassador, Jisoo's look felt both like a continuation and a coronation.

Lisa from BLACKPINK Credit: Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesAs a member of the 2026 Met Gala host committee, Lisa didn't just embrace the night's dress code — she practically engineered it. Wearing a custom Robert Wun look, the BLACKPINK rapper and actress delivered one of the most avant-garde moments on the carpet: a sculptural gown featuring multiple 3D-printed arms extending outward to hold up her sheer veil.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.The detail that sent social media into overdrive? The arms were modeled after Lisa's own. Created using 3D scans of her body, the piece blurred the line between fashion and self-portrait, with the arrangement subtly referencing traditional Thai dance positions. It's a continuation of Wun's fascination with the body as form, but here, it felt deeply personal, equal parts surreal and technical.
Hunter Schafer Credit: Michael Buckner/Penske Media via Getty ImagesIn 1912, Gustav Klimt, most famously known for "The Kiss," painted a 9-year-old girl, Mäda Primavesi. She was the only child who ever sat for the portraitist. A century later, the girl's knee-length dress and staunch pose would make it all the way to the Met Gala, in the form of a jaw-dropping Prada gown worn by actor and model Hunter Schafer.
Schafer's look, complete with the girl's hair bow and floral appliques, had the internet enthralled. A princess, they called her, a white swan. Or maybe just a young girl's dream-come-true.

Luke Evans Credit: Theo Wargo/FilmMagic via Getty ImagesLuke Evans is currently strutting across New York City's Studio 54 as queer icon and alien Frankenfurter. But rather than donning his signature platformed Transylvanian look on the Met Gala red carpet, Evans' look was an homage to artistic icon Tom of Finland, the creative mind behind a genre of stylized homoerotic art that became a signature cultural reference for the LGBTQ+ community in the late 20th century.
What better way to honor the queer joy and radical acceptance of Rocky Horror Show — and the dress code "fashion is art" — than with a Palomo Spain head-to-toe leather daddy outfit?

Every year, the public awaits their looks — often controversial, often strikingly not on theme — and this year was no exception. So when Kylie Jenner, notably solo, showed up on 5th Ave, jaws dropped. Jenner was sporting custom Schiaparelli, designed to mimic the semi-nude form of the famous "Venus de Milo" statue, otherwise known as Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, and a callback to a famous Schiaparelli portrait taken by Man Ray.
While many onlookers appreciated the layered ode to art, others couldn't help but ask: Is this thinly veiled promo for Skims' nipple bra?

The gown was a custom Dior made of tulle and actual bedazzled film strips, and according to Vogue, if you zoom in, you could see Sabrina stars Humphrey Bogart and William Holden.
The "House Tour" singer was praised for the film references, and also harkened back to film and TV references in her recent Coachella set. Carpenter

Chamberlain wore a custom Mugler by Miguel Castro Freitas, according to Vogue, and squarely fit the dress code "Fashion is Art." The top of the dress looks like sweeping yellow brushstrokes around her torso, cascading to the multicolor, blue-dominant skirt. The sleeves were also unique, with long, thin fringe.
Some X users said Chamberlain understood the theme better than other attendees, with others even calling her the best-dressed.

Bad Bunny Credit: Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty ImagesOne of the most unique looks of last night's Met Gala was Bad Bunny's. While he's in the midst of his Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, Benito took to the red carpet last night in a sleek all-black suit, looking…considerably older.
Bad Bunny wore prosthetics to appear elderly, with white hair and sagging skin. The look is meant to harken to the Costume Institute's 2026 exhibition and the different body types explored within, particularly the aging body, according to Vogue. Makeup artist Mike Marino transformed Bad Bunny into a grandpa version of himself, complete with realistic age spots and wrinkles.
The monochromatic suit was adorned with a large pussy bow, which is a reference to designer Charles James's garment "Bustle," Vogue reported.
Some online commentators commended Bad Bunny on the look. Men's style blog @dieworkwear said it was, "Like an elegant version of Johnny Knoxville's gag in Jackass."

Opens in a new window Credit: Eufy Eufy E25 robot vacuum and mop $599.98 at AmazonWe all have plenty on our plates. If you're not busy running between work, meetings, chores, errands, and other life requirements, please divulge your secrets. But in the meantime, there's a proven way to eliminate the need to clean the floors. We have robots that actually do a fantastic job at keeping the carpet vacuumed and the kitchen mopped. If you need to offload some chores, check out this deal at Amazon.
As of May 5, the Eufy E25 robot vacuum and mop is on sale at Amazon for $599.98, marked down from the list price at Eufy of $1,299.99. That's a 54% discount and the best price we've ever seen at Amazon.
Why get a robot vacuum when you could get a robot vacuum that also mops? The Eufy E25 uses 20,000Pa turbo suction power to pick up dust, dander, coffee grounds, pet hair, crumbs, and more. Instead of worrying about the brush roll getting tangled with hair, it uses a unique DuoSpiral Detangle Brush which gathers hair and fur in the center of the brush. Then the brush roll separates its two parts to suck up any hair and fur that would have ordinarily stayed on the roller.
SEE ALSO: Snag the powerful Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete robot vacuum for its lowest price everWhen it comes time to mop the floor, the Eufy E25 uses a HydroJet System. Instead of cleaning up a mess and continuing on with a dirty mop roller, the Eufy cleans the roller as it goes, ensuring it's always clean. The roller mop is nearly a foot in length, making for quick mopping.
While it's sitting at a new record-low price, upgrade your floor's cleaning routine with the Eufy E25. It's well over 50% off and will save you the time and hassle of keeping up on floor cleaning as we head into the busy summer.
As we've noted repeatedly, if you want a pair of flagship noise-cancelling headphones in 2026, then $450 is the starting price of admission. But a Sony leaker claims that an even pricier pair of premium Sony headphones is coming this year, with a potential price tag of $649.
Prominent leaker billbil-kun published a report detailing the specs of previously unknown new headphones from Sony, which could be called "Sony 1000X The ColleXion" (first reported by The Walkman Blog). The headphones may also be part of a larger collection of products with the tagline, "Master the art of listening."
These premium 1000XM headphones also appear to have leaked visually via photos of British actor Damson Idris, who was seen allegedly wearing them in NYC (via Reddit).
SEE ALSO: PS5 gamers entitled to credits in new Sony lawsuit settlementPhotos of Idris in New York City over the weekend show an unknown pair of Sony headphones and a travel case, which match the details reported by billbil-kun. The headphones have white ear cups and a metal headband, a departure from Sony's usual headphone style.
Our reviewers have criticized Sony headphones in the past for their all-plastic design, which can feel flimsy compared to headphones that use aluminum, leather, and other premium materials.
Credit: Michael Simon/WireImage Credit: Michael Simon/WireImage Credit: Michael Simon/WireImageBefore we get into any technical details, it's again worth emphasizing that billbil-kun is reporting that these cans will cost a whopping $649 in the United States. That's $200 more than the already very nice and expensive Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones, and almost $100 more than the latest Apple AirPods Max 2. In the ultra-premium category, they would cost less than the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2, which retails for $799.
According to the leak, you'll get what you pay for, though.
The premium headphones reportedly come in a non-folding design with a "premium magnetic carrying case" and "studio-quality sound" featuring 360-degree head tracking. They use 12 microphones for active noise cancellation and noise reduction during phone calls, as well as "DSEE Ultimate technology for audio upscaling." The design reportedly features synthetic leather and metal materials.
One downside, though, is that they're approximately 60 grams heavier than the WH-1000XM6 headphones, most likely due to the metal materials. According to the leak, they'll launch as soon as May 19, so keep your head on a swivel.

Password managers are supposed to make life easier for users by remembering their passwords and keeping them secure.
However, one cybersecurity researcher has discovered a quite concerning development regarding Microsoft Edge and how the web browser's password manager behaves.
According to researcher Tom Jøran Sønstebyseter Rønning, Microsoft Edge loads every saved password into memory at startup — in plaintext.
In a thread on X, Rønning detailed how the credentials are decrypted even if a user doesn't visit a site that uses the password manager during the user session.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed."If an attacker gains administrative access on a terminal server, they can access the memory of all logged‑on user processes," Rønning writes.
Edge is Microsoft's proprietary web browser based on the Chromium open-source project, the code base developed and maintained by Google. However, as Rønning shared, this issue involving plain text credentials does not appear in other Chromium-based browsers like Google Chrome.
"Edge is the only Chromium‑based browser I’ve tested that behaves this way," says Rønning. "By contrast, Chrome uses a design that makes it far harder for attackers to extract saved passwords by simply reading process memory."
Rønning says he first reached out to Microsoft regarding his findings before publicly disclosing the issue. According to the cybersecurity researcher, Microsoft responded by saying this behavior in Microsoft Edge was "by design."
The German tech website Heise Online replicated the password issue. The site also noted that, according to well-established cybersecurity best practices, "passwords should only be decrypted at the time of use and deleted from memory very shortly thereafter."
Given Microsoft's alleged response to Rønning, users concerned about the potential issue should consider alternative password managers.
Mashable has reached out to Microsoft for more information regarding the recent findings. We will update this piece if we hear back.

The latest trailer for Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey has everything: Matt Damon trying to get home (again). The cyclops Polyphemus. Robert Pattinson beefing with Tom Holland. It's truly an embarrassment of riches — and that's before we get into the whirlpool Charybdis or the flashes of the Trojan War.
SEE ALSO: 2026 Summer movie preview: Every film you need to know about nowAdapted from Homer's epic, The Odyssey follows Odysseus's (Damon) decades-long quest to return home to Ithaca following the fall of Troy. He may be the wiliest of strategists, but are those wiles enough to face down the wrath of the gods?
While Odysseus weathers encounters with monsters like Polyphemus and Scylla and Charybdis, his wife Penelope (Anne Hathaway) and son Telemachus (Tom Holland) await his return to Ithaca. They've been overrun with potential suitors for Penelope, including the slimy Antinous (Pattinson). And when I say slimy, I mean rotten lettuce levels of slimy. Seriously, the trailer is worth the watch for Pattinson's nasty threats alone.
Damon, Hathaway, Holland, and Pattinson are only the tip of the iceberg of The Odyssey's extensive, star-studded cast. Zendaya stars the as the goddess Athena, Charlize Theron plays nymph Calypso, and Jon Bernthal and Benny Safdie play kingly brothers Menelaus and Agamemnon.
The film also stars Lupita Nyong’o, John Leguizamo, Himesh Patel, Mia Goth, Will Yun Lee, Jimmy Gonzalez, Elliot Page, and more.
To catch these stars (and get some serious chills from The Odyssey's IMAX-shot visuals), check out the full trailer above.
Crypto exchange Coinbase is laying off 14 percent of its workforce.
The decision has been made public by CEO Brian Armstrong. In a post on X, he explained that the layoffs are mainly due to two concerns: Bear market, and AI.
"Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm," he wrote. "However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter [...] we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure."
Cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, are currently recovering after a sharp downturn that started late last year. The price of Bitcoin is currently at about $81,400, down from its highs of about $127,000 in August 2025.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Armstrong also explained that AI is changing how the company works. "Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks (...) all of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action," he wrote.
SEE ALSO: Was Bitcoin's creator unmasked by the New York Times? Don't bet on it.Affected workers will get a "comprehensive package" which includes a minimum of 16 weeks base pay for U.S. workers (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA, wrote Armstrong.
Coinbase is scheduled to release its Q1 2026 earnings report on May 7. The company reported a big revenue decline last quarter, and analysts, for the most part, expect another weak quarter.
The "We were on a break!" argument between Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) has to be one of the most famous moments in Friends — but, now, over two decades on, Lisa Kudrow sees it in a different light.
"He was a bad boyfriend," she tells Jimmy Fallon in the Tonight Show clip above. "She shouldn't have gotten back with him because he was horrible. To me it's like, I don't care if he slept with three other women or no other women. You had a crisis at work so you weren't available for a few nights and he flipped out, and you're like, 'Wow'."
Take that, Ross.
A24 is bringing Anthony Bourdain back to theaters with the coming-of-age drama, Tony.
It's hard to believe it's been nearly eight years since the death of Anthony Bourdain. The outspoken American chef made a massive imprint on the world, not only through his love of food but also his work as an author and documentarian. He shared cuisine, curiosity, and culture from all over the world through his rich and riveting docu-series like No Reservations and Parts Unknown.
Beyond that, his life and writing inspired the 2006 TV series Kitchen Confidential, starring Bradley Cooper; the 2015 drama Bone in the Throat; and the 2021 biographical documentary Roadrunner, which sparked controversy for its use of AI. Now, Tony will explore the early days of Bourdain's career, featuring The Holdovers' Dominic Sessa playing the man himself.
SEE ALSO: Anthony Bourdain's first time at Waffle House is a spiritual, unpretentious must-watchDirected by Matt Johnson (Nirvanna: The Band - The Show - The Movie), Tony begins with a 19-year-old Bourdain, spinning out after his ambition to become a writer hits a speed bump. But a job in a kitchen — working under a beguiling Antonio Banderas — will change everything.
Emilia Jones, Dagmara Dominczyk, Rich Sommers, Stavros Halkias, and Leo Woodall co-star in Tony, which will open in theaters this August. But are audiences ready to see someone else play Bourdain this soon after his death?
We'll see.
On May 5, Bose announced its new Lifestyle Collection, which consists of the Bose Lifestyle Ultra Speaker ($299), the Bose Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar ($1,099), and the Bose Lifestyle Ultra Subwoofer ($899). The line is designed to work together or separately to deliver exceptional sound throughout the home.

SEE ALSO: Rate your favorite audio brands for a chance to win a $250 Amazon gift cardI was invited to experience the Lifestyle Collection ahead of its release, and I was thoroughly impressed by what I heard and saw. Music on the Lifestyle Ultra Speaker sounded booming and full without muddying vocals, and a clip from Dune literally shook the floors with audio playing from the Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar. The soundbar, speaker, and subwoofer, when paired, created room-filling sound sure to wow anyone who takes their Letterboxd account very seriously. And on top of that, the Lifestyle Collection looks sleek and doesn't scream "tech product."

Bose Lifestyle Ultra Speaker The Bose Lifestyle Ultra Speaker is available in white smoke, driftwood sand, and black. Credit: Miller Kern / MashableThe Lifestyle Ultra Speaker is decently compact while still packing huge sound. It features three drivers — two front-facing and one up-firing — that allow the audio to truly fill a space, so you get powerful, clear sound no matter where you are in the room. It also features CleanBass technology, supported by a proprietary QuietPort acoustic opening, that delivers bass that doesn't sound echoey or blown-out.
Two Lifestyle Ultra speakers can be paired for a surround-sound stereo setup. And you can play music to as many Lifestyle speakers as you have directly from your preferred music app — no need to connect via Bluetooth. The Lifestyle Ultra Speaker is compatible with Google Cast, Apple AirPlay, and Spotify Connect, and can be grouped with other compatible smart speakers on your network. Additionally, it features a 3.5mm aux port, which is awesome for connecting a turntable. It's also the first to market speaker outside of Amazon's own devices to offer full Alexa+ capabilities.
Price and specsPrice: $299
Available speaker configurations: 1.0, 2.0, 7.0.4, 7.1.4
Connectivity: WiFi, Bluetooth 5.3, AUX 3.5mm
Dimensions: 4.8 inches W x 7.3 inches H x 6.6 inches D
Colors: Black, white smoke, driftwood sand (limited edition)
This marks the first major soundbar redesign from Bose in over a decade. The Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar features a new acoustic architecture with six full-range drivers (four front-facing and two up-firing), a center tweeter, and two Bose proprietary PhaseGuide drivers. It can play Dolby Atmos content and has SpeechClarity technology that ensures dialogue stands out at any volume, with three adjustable dialogue levels. CustomTune uses your phone's microphone to analyze the acoustics of your room to optimize audio output performance. Like the speaker, the soundbar features CleanBass technology.
While showing off the Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar, a Bose rep toggled on and off the SpeechClarity setting, and I was instantly sold. I sometimes struggle to hear dialogue, but I hate using subtitles, and this technology feels like it was made for me specifically. It pushed the dialogue of a noisy scene without distorting any of the background sound.
The Lifestyle Ultra Soundbar also looks incredibly sleek and sports a tactile dial that allows users to control volume levels without picking up their TV remote or phone.
Price and specsPrice: $1,099
Available speaker configurations: 5.0.2, 5.1.2, 7.0.4, 7.1.4
