LISA is the ultimate multi-hyphenate: rapper, singer, dancer, actress, and style icon. At 14, LALISA MANOBAL, won the YG Entertainment audition and left her home in Thailand to train as a K-pop artist. By 2026, LISA of Blackpink has solidified her evolution from K-pop sensation to Nike partner, and global superstar – living out her ultimate dream, having achieved her moonshot.
The legendary Moon Shoe was Nike’s original moonshot. Born out of an idea in co-founder, Bill Boweman’s kitchen, the Moon Shoe experiment cemented Nike’s reputation as an innovator and gave rise to the company’s first major footwear breakthroughs. It helped deliver the blueprint for Nike’s approach and long-term success: experiment boldly, keep refining, and never stop pushing forward – much like LISA.
This fall, Nike Sportswear celebrates LISA’s meteoric journey in a campaign showcasing the global icon wearing the sleek and fashion-forward Moon Shoe silhouette. LISA reaches the greatest of heights, leaving her shoe print on the moon, planting the Nike Sportswear (NSW) flag, and standing atop a lunar podium. The striking visuals are set to “Mister Magic Moon,” a track released in 1964 by The Kim Sisters (with Joe Tanner’s Orchestra) – the first globally successful K-Pop group, long before the term existed. It’s a full circle moment as the campaign honors the past, while showcasing the future, much like the Moon Shoe itself.
The Nike Sportswear Moon Shoe is available now in new seasonal colorways on Nike.com and at select Nike and partner retail locations globally.

When the unprecedented rise of social media began creating serious problems across the socio-political landscape, Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horwitz went looking for answers.
What he uncovered, together with the invaluable evidence presented by whistleblower Frances Haugen, proved explosive. Their work became known as The Facebook Files, an investigation that helped expose troubling revelations about Facebook and ultimately laid the groundwork for director Aaron Sorkin’s upcoming film, The Social Reckoning.
Watch the trailer:
Aaron Sorkin Found His Jeff Horwitz in Jeremy Allen White
Sorkin sought out Jeremy Allen White following the actor’s award-winning performance in the acclaimed series The Bear.
Our fantastic casting director Francine Maisler, who has cast pretty much everything I’ve done, mentioned Jeremy in our first conversation and I thought we’ll never be able to get him. But I loved his performances in The Bear and as Springsteen and as soon as we met, we hit it off right away. He has all the skills, and all the intelligence, stoicism, and sense of humor to really get this character, Sorkin shares.
White was fresh from his Golden Globe-nominated portrayal of Bruce Springsteen in Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere when the opportunity arrived.
Playing Jeff Horwitz, however, called for a very different approach.
Rather than simply imitating the real-life journalist, White worked from the character Sorkin had created on the page.
In the worlds that Sorkin creates, the characters take on a new life all their own,” White explains. “He likes the actors to play the character on the page, so the real Jeff and I never had contact.
For White, that creative distance became an exciting part of understanding the role.
For me, it was exciting to try to understand Jeff in this different way. I saw him as someone trying his best to remain curious and questioning even as the pressure on him from all sides gets overwhelming.
Finding the Rhythm in Sorkin’s Signature Dialogue
White also had plenty to work with thanks to Sorkin’s famously fast, intelligent dialogue.
His dialogue gives you beautiful rhythms while also being full of ideas,” White describes. “Things move fast, but Aaron also knows how to really let scenes breathe.
That balance helps shape Jeff as he pursues a story with increasingly serious consequences, all while navigating the enormous responsibility attached to the information being placed in his hands.
Jeremy Allen White and Mikey Madison Build the Film’s Crucial Partnership
A major part of White’s role involved working opposite Mikey Madison, who portrays former Facebook employee and whistleblower Frances Haugen.
Their rapport is crucial to the story, especially as the relationship between journalist and source changes throughout the investigation.
I’ve long been a fan of Mikey’s,” White says, “and I found her wonderfully present, grounded, and intriguing as Frances, which made the intense pressure Jeff feels to do right by her even higher.
White paid close attention to how Jeff and Frances gradually begin to understand each other.
Jeff is at first frustrated by Frances, but he becomes increasingly protective of her,” White observes. “She starts out wary of Jeff, uncertain of what she wants out of this. She still has a lot of love for Facebook, for all that Zuckerberg has built and all that it means to people, and she’s very proud of her work at the company.
That emotional conflict makes Frances’ decision even more consequential.
Jeff tries to respect that, but he wants the truth to come out, and I don’t think he fully realizes how big a sacrifice it is for her until she has already made it.
A Story With Enormous Stakes
With White as Horwitz and Madison as Haugen, The Social Reckoning turns one of the most consequential technology investigations of recent years into a gripping story about journalism, responsibility, power, and the cost of exposing the truth.
Directed by Aaron Sorkin, the film brings audiences inside an investigation that forced the world to confront difficult questions about Facebook, social media, and the companies shaping modern public life.

The festival lineup spans several memorable eras of the storied Japanese franchise, from the classic Showa period to ambitious modern reinventions.
Five Godzilla Films Return to the Big Screen
Get ready for towering creatures, spectacular destruction, extraterrestrial threats, and some of Godzilla’s most unforgettable battles.
One of the franchise’s most beloved classic showdowns, Mothra vs. Godzilla brings two legendary kaiju face-to-face.
When Godzilla returns to wreak havoc, the majestic Mothra is called upon to protect humanity. Packed with adventure, destruction, and unforgettable monster spectacle, the 1964 classic remains an essential chapter in Godzilla history.
Godzilla encounters one of his most unusual opponents when Biollante, a monstrous creature created from plant, human, and Godzilla DNA, emerges. Imaginative and visually distinctive, this cult favorite delivers one of the franchise’s most unique battles.
In Godzilla 2000: Millennium, Godzilla returns to Japan just as a mysterious alien spacecraft awakens Orga, a terrifying shape-shifting creature. Featuring massive destruction, thrilling confrontations, and a revitalized take on the King of the Monsters, the film kicked off a new era for the franchise.
When creatures across the globe suddenly run amok, Earth’s defenders are forced into an extraordinary fight for survival. Soon, Godzilla faces an army of familiar foes while an extraterrestrial enemy manipulates events from behind the scenes.
Big, bold, and packed with kaiju battles, the film delivers a full-scale monster spectacle.
A modern reimagining of the legendary monster, Shin Godzilla presents an unsettling version of the icon unlike anything that came before it.
After a mysterious creature emerges from Tokyo Bay, it rapidly evolves into an increasingly destructive force. As Japan faces an unprecedented national crisis, government officials scramble to respond to a threat that refuses to stop changing.
The acclaimed film brings a striking contemporary perspective to Godzilla while retaining the fear and awe that have defined the character for generations.

The Tony Award-winning actress and Hollywood Walk of Fame star makes a powerful dramatic transformation in TGA’s highly anticipated Philippine staging of Ang Tahanan ni Bernard Alba.
Last seen with TGA as The Witch in the sold-out run of Into the Woods, this season, Lea Salonga steps into one of theater’s most complex and commanding roles as she inhabits the play’s titular character.
Following an extraordinary career that has taken her from Manila to Broadway and beyond, the multiple award-winning actress, singer, and producer now turns her formidable dramatic talents toward this headstrong matriarch, a woman whose determination to protect her family ultimately becomes the very force that threatens to destroy it. This poetic drama by Federico García Lorca, one of the 20th century’s greatest dramatists, permeates this tragic masterpiece of matriarchal despotism and is adapted by celebrated director-playwright Chay Yew and translated into Filipino by Guelan Valera Luarca.
After the death of her second husband, Bernarda declares eight years of mourning and imposes absolute obedience upon her five daughters. Behind the closed doors of the Alba household, silence, discipline, tradition, and appearances reign supreme. But beneath the carefully maintained order, her daughters’ desires, jealousies, frustrations, and dreams refuse to remain contained. When the arrival of a potential suitor disturbs the household’s fragile equilibrium, tensions begin to mount, forcing each woman to confront what she wants and what she is willing to sacrifice to have it.
At the center of it all stands Bernarda: fiercely protective, uncompromising, and obsessed with respectability. She is both mother and ruler, protector and oppressor, determined to hold her family together even as her methods transform their home into a prison.
For Salonga, whose career has been defined by some of musical theater’s most demanding roles, Bernarda marks a striking new chapter. Best known internationally for her Tony Award-winning performance in Miss Saigon, Salonga has also received the Olivier, Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle, and Theatre World Awards. She became the first Asian actress to play Eponine on Broadway in Les Misérables and later returned to the musical as Fantine in its 2006 revival. Her Broadway credits also include Once on This Island, Allegiance, Flower Drum Song, Here Lies Love, and Sondheim’s Old Friends. On TV, she was last seen in Pretty Little Liars and The Cleaning Lady. She is a bona fide Disney legend having lent her singing voice to Princess Jasmine in Aladdin and Fa Mulan in Mulan and Mulan II. Most recently, Salonga voiced the dreaded manananggalin the DreamWorks animation Forgotten Island.
Yet Ang Tahanan ni Bernarda Alba presents audiences with a Lea Salonga they have never seen before.
Salonga says, “To be perfectly honest, I hadn’t encountered this play before, which may work in my favor as I have no preconceived notions or strong opinions. After reading both Chay’s English translation and then Guelan’s translation into Pilipino, despite the literal terror I feel in my soul, this is an absolutely important work to tackle. It fits our culture and is timely given the state of current events in the world.”
The “terror” Salonga speaks of emanates from two fronts: First, the striking difference in her parenting style compared to that of Bernarda’s, and second, because the play will be entirely in Filipino.
The iconic performer shares, “Bernarda is a mother who rules the roost and raises her
children not with love but fear. This kind of parenting still exists, whether for cultural or familial reasons, and getting under the skin of such a mother may give me some empathy for her as well as plenty of sympathy for her children. Figuring out what her backstory is will be fascinating, and what her motivations are for ruling her home with an iron fist. Her rule is law for every person living under her roof, and that house is not a happy place. How does anyone reach that point? It’s definitely going to be, dare I say, fun playing detective and piecing all that out.”
She continues, “To borrow a line from Into the Woods, I’m ‘excited and scared’. My Tagalog, strangely enough, tends to lean towards the ‘matatas’ side. I once
wrote a post on Threads in Pilipino from start to finish, trying not to incorporate either English or Spanish. A few folks might’ve been surprised. As for preparations, I’ve enlisted Guelan’s help in navigating the script, and am ready to ask questionsabout why he chose certain words over others in his translation. His use of the language isn’t justbeautiful but adds so many layers of subtext and meaning.
With Lea Salonga at its center, Ang Tahanan ni Bernarda Alba promises not merely a performance, but a confrontation and examination of our own Filipino family dynamics and values.

Watch the Official New Trailer for “Ebenezer”
The newly released trailer offers a closer look at Depp’s transformation into Scrooge while teasing the atmosphere, characters, and mystery surrounding this new interpretation.

The mix of established stars and rising talents gives “Ebenezer” plenty of screen presence, with each performer contributing to the film’s new take on the enduring Scrooge story.

Ti West Takes on a Holiday Classic
Known for films that lean heavily into atmosphere and character, Ti West brings an interesting creative choice to the project.
After directing the X trilogy, West now turns his attention to a much more familiar literary figure, but one that still leaves plenty of room for reinvention.
Executive producers include Ti West, Adam Bohling, David Reid, Stephen Deuters, Jason Forman, Pete Chiappetta, Anthony Tittanegro, and Andrew Lary.
When Does “Ebenezer” Open in Cinemas?
Moviegoers can catch “Ebenezer” exclusively in cinemas nationwide starting December 2.
