Will there be a Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen Season 2?
Netflix's horror series Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen ended, as its title suggests, with something very bad: a wedding bloodbath that left almost all the guests dead.
SEE ALSO: 'Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen's bloody ending, explainedHowever, it also ended with the promise of something good: a fresh start for heroine Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone), who survived a family curse and escaped a marriage with the spineless Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco). The curse that plagued the Harkin family for generations has since passed on to the Cunninghams, and the now-immortal Rachel will act as the witness for any of their future weddings. Here's hoping she has a much less frightening aura than the witness who haunted her family, played by the formidable Zlatko Burić.
By the finale's end, Rachel's arc seems fairly complete. But is there a chance Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen will come back for a Season 2?
Has Netflix renewed Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen for Season 2? Camila Morrone in "Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen." Credit: NetflixSo far, no. Netflix has not indicated any plans for a second season of Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen. Part of that is by the show's design: It was originally envisioned as a limited series. However, several miniseries have grown so popular they've picked up second seasons. Look at Big Little Lies, or The White Lotus, or even Netflix's own Beef, now an anthology. Could Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen follow a similar route?
In an interview with TheWrap, series creator Haley Z. Boston noted that the possibility for a Season 2 is there, but that it would look fairly different.
"There is an open thread, but this was so inspired by my own fear that I'm gonna need another existential fear to explore," Boston told TheWrap. "I think we're done with the wedding thing."
Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen is now streaming on Netflix.
Where can you stream Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen?
Horror series Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen delivers atmospheric thrills and chills by the bucketful, so if you haven't already checked it out, consider this your sign to add it to your watchlist.
SEE ALSO: 'Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen' review: Marriage is a killerCreated by Haley Z. Boston (Brand New Cherry Flavor) and executive produced by Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers, the eight-episode miniseries is now streaming on Netflix. It premiered March 26 and pulled in 28.3 million hours viewed in its first week, according to Netflix. It's remained in Netflix's top 10 series globally every week since its release, although as of this writing, it no longer appears on Netflix's top 10 TV shows carousel.
The series follows engaged couple Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone) and Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco) in the week leading up to their wedding at Nicky's parents' remote cabin. As their special day approaches, Rachel can't shake the feeling that — you guessed it — something very bad is going to happen. (Maybe the remote cabin should have been the first red flag.)
Based on Nicky's off-putting family, you may expect that "something very bad" to look like something out of Ready or Not, where a filthy rich family turns on their newest addition. But Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen takes a different turn, looping in strange curses and family trauma to examine anxieties around marriage and finding the perfect soulmate.
The carnage that follows certainly lives up to the show's title, creating one of the most engrossing Netflix binges of 2026.

Bluesky breaks silence on outage and reveals cause
Bluesky, the social media app popular with X expatriates, suffered a widespread outage on Thursday, April 16.
And in a thread posted on the official Bluesky profile, the app's leaders revealed the cause of the outage — a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.
"Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026," the post read. "They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day."
Fortunately, Bluesky also said there was no evidence that any user data had been compromised in the attack, which affected the Bluesky app, feeds, notifications, and search. The company said it would provide further information by 1 p.m. ET Friday.
Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026. They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day.
— Bluesky (@bsky.app) April 16, 2026 at 7:47 PMThe Bluesky status page indicated the app was fully online as of this writing; the app reports a 99.983 percent uptime over the past 90 days.
A DDoS attack is relatively simple and low-effort for cybercriminals. In this type of attack, hackers send a massive number of requests to overwhelm servers. DDoS attacks have been around since the early days of the World Wide Web, and as the Bluesky outage shows, they can still cause problems.
The Bluesky outage began affecting users in the early morning hours, with the service DownDetector recording thousands of user error reports. (Disclosure: DownDetector and Mashable are both owned by the same parent company, Ziff Davis.)
Bluesky saw massive growth after Elon Musk took over Twitter, and again following the second election of President Donald Trump. However, its growth has stalled more recently, and data shows that daily active users on Bluesky have declined.
Mashable reached out to Bluesky with questions about the attack, and we'll update this story if we receive a response.
iPhone 18 colors and cameras appear in new leaks
We're still several months away from Apple showing us the iPhone 18, but we can still bask in leaks until then.
This week, we've got a pair of leaks involving the cameras and colors for the upcoming flagship iPhone.
On the camera side, Korean outlet ETNews (via MacRumors) reports that Apple will debut a new variable-aperture rear camera system on the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max in September. Prior to this year, all iPhones had fixed-aperture cameras, meaning the lens remained completely open during image capture. A variable aperture will allow the lens to open and close gradually depending on the situation, letting in more light in darkness or keeping excess light out in bright settings.
SEE ALSO: Apple iPhone 17e review: Ticks every box but oneThat would give iPhones an even greater level of flexibility in photography, and this report is backed up by prominent Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said Apple would incorporate a variable aperture in the iPhone 18 all the way back in 2024.
What do the latest iPhone rumors have to say about colors?
Macworld claims to have received some information about Apple's chosen colors for 2026. According to their sources, the headline color this year will be "Dark Cherry," a dark red that will replace the controversial cosmic orange color from the iPhone 17 Pro. Macworld also said that light blue, dark gray, and silver options are also possibilities for the iPhone 18 Pro. A previous leak also suggested Apple would ditch black for the iPhone 18 Pro, which may not go over well if it proves true.
All will be revealed in September, though the iPhone Fold may get most of the attention.
The MacBook Neo is selling out — act fast to secure the best-ever price at Amazon
TL;DR: The MacBook Neo is sold out at Apple (shipping dates have slipped into May), but you can still buy right now for Amazon's best-ever price of $589.99.

If you thought Apple’s MacBook Neo was just a niche product for students, think again. The demand for Apple's latest entry-level laptop has been staggering. Don't believe us? Shipping dates have slipped into May if you order direct from Apple.
That's the bad news. The good news is that whether you want the 256GB base model or the upgraded 512GB version, Amazon has you covered. And better yet, you can order right now for Amazon's best-ever price of $589.99.
SEE ALSO: Testing the MacBook Neo on 8K video and raw photosSo how did we get here? Global RAM shortages have jacked up the prices of Windows laptops, making the sub-$600 MacBook Neo with the A18 Pro chip the most logical purchase on the market. In Mashable's review of the MacBook Neo, Timothy Werth sums it up: "For students, young people, and casual users, there's nothing else like it at this price."
We're not rushing you into any decision here, but if you were already contemplating a purchase, consider this a warning. The popularity of the MacBook Neo is surging, and Amazon's record-low price might not stick around forever.

What MacBook you should buy after Apple’s lineup change
The calculus for buying a new Mac has officially changed. With the debut of the $599 MacBook Neo and a massive power bump for the M5 series of processors, Apple's 2026 laptop lineup looks very different from what it did just months ago.
In this Lab Report, we’re breaking down Apple’s entire MacBook stack—from the new budget Neo to the monster M5 Max MacBook Pro—to help you decide which machine actually belongs on your desk. We’ve spent hours testing these in the PC Labs to see how each type of MacBook handles real-world workflows.

Summer's right around the corner (for some of us, it feels like it's already here!), and that means bonfires, beach days, and backyard BBQs, which obviously, couldn't be had without some tunes.
If your speaker is shot or you've yet to get a portable Bluetooth speaker, the Monster Shock portable Bluetooth speaker is on sale for $26.99 at Amazon, down from $49.99. That's the lowest price we've tracked for this speaker, but Amazon's marking it as a "limited time deal," so you'll need to act fast.
SEE ALSO: I wore JLab's ridiculously big 'headphone' speakers. I still have so many questions!The Monster Shock is IPX6 waterproof (so you can take it to the beach or bring it to the pool), has a 30W power driver and a max Bluetooth range of 100 feet, and offers 17 hours of playtime. And because it's practically half off right now, you could even grab two and pair them together for True Wireless Stereo surround sound for just a few bucks more than the original price of one.
Before you buy: a few reviewers noted that the speaker's automated control voice is aggressively loud, so maybe don't power it on for the first time while your friends are trying to nap in the sun.
DJI reveals Osmo Pocket 4, upgrading its popular gimbal camera. But theres a big catch.
DJI has unveiled the Osmo Pocket 4, the next iteration of its popular handheld gimbal camera. Sadly, it may be a while before people in the U.S. get to try it out.
Since its release in 2023, DJI's Osmo Pocket 3 has become a stalwart favorite of content creators across the globe. The newly announced Osmo Pocket 4 now adds several upgrades to the familiar 4K vlogging camera, such as dedicated zoom and customizable buttons that are accessible when the 2-inch touchscreen is twisted into landscape mode.

SEE ALSO: I reviewed the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and I can't imagine a better social video cameraThe DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera features a 1-inch CMOS sensor, with 14 stops of dynamic range, helping it deliver improved low-light performance. Capable of filming at a maximum resolution of 16:9 4K at 60fps, the Osmo Pocket 4 can also record 4K slow-mo footage at 240fps — a frame rate the Pocket 3 only reaches at 1080p.
DJI states that the Pocket 4 can run for an impressive four hours at its lowest resolution of 1080p 24fps, which is notably longer than the Pocket 3, and also has 107GB of built-in storage. This will likely be welcome news to anyone concerned about the increasing cost of memory cards, as the Pocket 3 relies entirely upon SD cards.
Credit: DJI The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera is not yet approved for U.S. releaseUnfortunately, a U.S. release of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera has not yet been confirmed. While other parts of the world will get their hands on the Osmo Pocket 4 within the next week, the U.S. government's hostility toward DJI continues to significantly hamper its business in the country.
SEE ALSO: We talked to DJI about the FCC drone ban in the United States.A DJI spokesperson told Mashable that it has requested authorization from the FCC to release the Osmo Pocket 4 in the U.S. market; however, its application is still pending. And given the FCC's tough stance on foreign drone companies, U.S. content creators will simply have to continue waiting.
Meanwhile, in Australia, pre-orders for the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 are open now, with shipping scheduled to begin on April 22. The Standard Combo bundle costs $AU769 (approximately $551) and includes a handle, carrying pouch, gimbal clamp, and wrist strap. The $AU959 (approximately $687) Creator Combo includes all that plus a wide-angle lens, fill light, mini tripod, carrying bag, and a DJI Mic 3 transmitter with accessories.
Credit: DJIHow Bob Odenkirk and the ‘Nobody’ team set out to elevate the genre with ‘Normal’
At first glance, many may have assumed that Bob Odenkirk's new film, Normal, was another sequel in the Nobody franchise. With the same star, writer, and producer, the two films do share much of the same DNA. However, the team's new movie is not only a completely new story but attempts to blend genres in a way that further separates it from its predecessor.
Mashable's Entertainment Editor, Kristy Puchko, caught up with the Normal team at SXSW to talk about the film, its themes, and why they chose to film on 35mm.
The film's writer, Derek Kolstad (John Wick, Nobody), noted how this film differs from Nobody, the team's previous collaboration. "To this point, you know, in Nobody, if there's a house on fire, Hutch is going to run into it and hopefully fight anyone who's in there. In Normal, he's going to look at the house on fire and say, 'I don't know.'"
Odenkirk added, "It's not that much fire." The Normal star described the film as "a story of a guy who has lost trust in himself, his instincts. In the course of interacting with the people of this small town who are hiding something from him, he is desperately trying to avoid seeing it. And then his hand is forced. Once he sees it, he has to re-engage with the situation and the world around him. And then there's a flip-floppery of allegiances that is very surprising and probably a bit inscrutable. When asked to define, sort of, the subtextual themes, I'm like, 'Wow, there's like six of them,' and they're a little bit conflicting. And that's what's great about it."
Ben Wheatley (Meg 2: The Trench, Kill List, Rebecca), the latest addition to the production team, when asked what attracted him to the film, replied, "In the kind of range of things I still want to make. It basically has the DNA of a cowboy movie, and it has it has the white hat, black hat kind of style. It has a sheriff, which is a point of morality in the middle. But it still speaks to my kind of slightly twisted kind of sense of morality as well."
In the full interview on YouTube, the team also talks about the undeniable difference of filming with practical effects as opposed to CGI, the way certain movies hit differently as we get older, and why it was important that Normal be an homage to the classic action-thriller genre. "I think one of the reasons we're projecting this on 35 millimeter is because we want to point to that quality," Odenkirk said. "There's a satisfaction, I hope, that we're achieving. That was the reason for the poster that we have. The poster is really a throwback visual."

Stephen Colbert reacts to Pete Hegseth quoting the Bible. Sorry, quoting ‘Pulp Fiction’.
At a Pentagon worship service on Wednesday, defense secretary Pete Hegseth recited an air rescue group's prayer he said drew from the Bible's Ezekiel 25:17. In reality, Hegseth delivered Samuel L. Jackson's Bible-inspired monologue from Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. The Pentagon later defended Hegseth's "custom prayer."
Stephen Colbert called it out during The Late Show on Thursday night, showing Hegseth delivering said "custom prayer" beside the scenes from the 1994 film. The edit is really something. Watching the U.S. defense secretary essentially quoting Jackson's Jules Winnfield, from a scene in which the hitman interrogates and executes a man after eating his Big Kahuna Burger, is kind of an out-of-body experience.
"Despite all this, I want Hegseth to succeed," said Colbert. "He's the Secretary of Defense. If he succeeds, that means America succeeds. So please join me in prayer. God, I'm talking to you. You talking to me? Are you talking to me? War is like a box of chocolates. I'm tired of these MFing sins on my MFing soul."

Spotify now looks a lot better on tablets and foldable phones
Spotify has updated its iOS and Android apps to look better on tablets and foldable phones.
The new design, launched for everyone on Thursday, makes better use of the extra space you get on a tablet. For example, on an iPad, you can browse in a larger window on the left side of the screen while still having your now playing sidebar on the right, with album art, controls, and even lyrics.

Besides hosting controls and information on the song that's currently playing, it also has additional content down below, including related videos, information about the artist, and more. Another improvement is a prominent "Switch to Video/Audio" button.
“Tablets give you more room to explore, so we designed it to let you browse and discover new favorites alongside what’s already playing," Nicole Burrow, head of design at Spotify, said in a statement. "The goal was simple: Wherever you open Spotify, it should feel unmistakably like Spotify.”
The timing of the update is notable, as this update makes the Spotify app better not only on tablets but also on foldable devices. Apple is rumored to be working on its first foldable phone, the iPhone Fold, with a launch window late in the year, and other phone makers have been introducing foldable phones at an increasing pace.
