Entertainment news today spans spectacle, ambition and unease. In Europe, a humpback whale whose dramatic rescue after repeated strandings off Germany’s Baltic coast drew intense attention has now been found dead off Denmark, prompting uncomfortable questions about whether intervention helped or harmed. On screen, James Gray’s new crime drama “Paper Tiger” is earning praise for its brooding, operatic take on two Queens brothers drawn toward the Russian mob, with Adam Driver, Miles Teller and Scarlett Johansson singled out even as some critics balk at the film’s plausibility. In music, Drake is dominating the conversation after a surprise three-album drop sent him to the top of Spotify’s daily streaming rankings for 2026, underlining his unmatched ability to turn volume into event. And in sport, AFL round 10 delivered shifting momentum at the MCG, where Melbourne’s fast start gave way to Hawthorn’s rise amid off-field disruption.
