Released in theaters on May 27, 2022, *Top Gun: Maverick* became a huge box office success, earning over $1.4 billion worldwide.

I’m so excited about Season 2 of *Happy’s Place*! It’s a show created by Kevin and Julie Abbott, and it centers around Bobbie, played by Reba McEntire, who takes over her father’s bar after he passes away.

Apparently, when the bar reopens, a huge secret from the past will come out, and it’s going to cause a lot of drama and test everyone’s friendships!
