Tom Cruise to receive honorary Oscar: Is a competitive win still possible?
Tom Cruise will finally be receiving an Oscar after decades in the film industry. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences had announced earlier this week that he would be given an Honorary Oscar at the 2025 Governors Awards in November, celebrating his lifetime contributions to cinema, Deadline reported. The Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning actor, who at 62 is still one of Hollywood's most bankable and enduring stars, has never taken home a competitive Oscar despite being nominated four times. Tom Cruise to receive honorary Oscar by the Academy.(Vianney Le Caer/Invision/AP) The Academy said that the honorary recognition is for Cruise's 'extraordinary distinction in lifetime achievement', particularly for his commitment to enriching theatrical experience, to the filmmaking and stunt communities. Cruise will be honored alongside production designer Wynn Thomas, choreographer and actor Debbie Allen, and Dolly Parton, who will receive the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award. Also Read: Mission accomplished? Tom Cruise is finally getting an Oscar but its not for any of his films Although Cruise is being bestowed with the honorary recognition, the big question remains: Will this end the Mission: Impossible actor's chances of winning a competitive Academy Award? Well, history suggests otherwise. Past Oscar winners prove an honorary award doesn't end the race As per Deadline, actors like Paul Newman and Henry Fonda both received honorary Oscars before they won Best Actor in the very next year. Additionally, Laurence Olivier, who won an Honorary Oscar in 1947, clinched Best Actor two years later. Harold Russell took home both an Honorary and a competitive Oscar in the same year. Some stars like Peter O'Toole initially resisted the gesture in fear that the honorary accolade was a consolation; they went on to receive further nominations. Moreover, figures outside of acting, like Ennio Morricone and Spike Lee also turned their honorary recognition into competitive wins later. The Deadline report added that the timing for Tom Cruise may be auspicious, too. The actor is currently filming a project with Oscar-winning director Alejandro G. Iñárritu. The Birdman filmmaker's next project is expected to release next year, which places it squarely in the running for the 99th Academy Awards. Tom Cruise could still find himself holding the elusive golden statue if the performance matches the prestige. So, while November's honorary award marks long-overdue recognition, it doesn't close the curtain on Cruise's Oscar journey. It might just be the prelude to his biggest role yet, an Oscar winner. FAQs Why didn't Tom Cruise win the Oscar? Despite four nominations, Tom Cruise has faced tough competition each time. His performances were critically acclaimed, but others edged him out during award season. Why is Tom Cruise getting an honorary Oscar? The Academy is recognizing Cruise for his lifetime contribution to cinema, including his work as an actor, producer, and champion of theatrical experience. Has Tom Cruise ever been up for an Oscar? Yes. He has been nominated four times: twice for Best Actor (Born on the Fourth of July, Jerry Maguire), once for Best Supporting Actor (Magnolia), and once as a producer for Best Picture (Top Gun: Maverick).

The rise of matcha bars in India
Gift this article In the past year, there's been a proliferation of boba tea brands and matcha bars. Looking at the global adoption of these teas, we're a bit late to the party but are certainly catching up. About a year ago, I wrote on the changing styles of tea, and Anne-Frédérique Dayraut, a tea promoter in France, had talked about how matcha, boba and chai are almost dissociated from tea, as standalone beverages. Still, the tea world can lay claim to this popularity, especially given that these are teas one enjoys out of home, lend themselves to customising, and are hence attractive to a new generation of tea drinkers. In the past year, there's been a proliferation of boba tea brands and matcha bars. Looking at the global adoption of these teas, we're a bit late to the party but are certainly catching up. About a year ago, I wrote on the changing styles of tea, and Anne-Frédérique Dayraut, a tea promoter in France, had talked about how matcha, boba and chai are almost dissociated from tea, as standalone beverages. Still, the tea world can lay claim to this popularity, especially given that these are teas one enjoys out of home, lend themselves to customising, and are hence attractive to a new generation of tea drinkers. I decided to visit the newest entrant in Bengaluru, Got Tea, a matcha and bubble tea bar that has opened in Kalyan Nagar, after seeing a lot of traction in their National Capital Region outlets. What was fascinating was to see matcha and bubble tea, two very different tea styles with different origins, converge to become a single beverage that is especially popular with 18-25-year olds. Also read: How to unlock umami from matcha YuSung Eo, one of Got Tea's three founders who's originally from Korea, says when they launched their first outlet in 2020 in Delhi, it was more about boba. Matcha has now taken centre stage and in the past nine months, he is seeing a big boost in interest and sales globally. Matcha is a tea that was traditionally about Japanese tea ceremony, with flavours quite different from the average tea. Yet that hasn't come in the way of this current surge in popularity. For so long, one spoke of its acquired flavours of umami and bitterness. And of course, it's not an inexpensive tea. So to see the demand surge with a global shortage is reason enough to take notice of it. The Japan Times reported in February that matcha production saw a threefold increase from 2010 to 2023, and that in the last five years, it has reached a 'tipping point", with over half of matcha from Japan exported. Its popularity is owed to its increased association with wellness (high antioxidants and also high caffeine), but perhaps also to its sheer versatility—finding its way into cooking and baking, as hot or cold, with or without milk. And of course, the vibrant green colour. The noise around matcha is growing louder, especially on Instagram. YuSung spoke of offering an authentic experience, sourcing premium grade matcha from Shizuoka and not skimping on how much matcha they use. He speaks of 'guiding" customers to navigate the matcha flavours, and a campaign to promote matcha that includes matcha workshops for tea enthusiasts (so far invitee-only, but soon open to public). It seems to be working—a lesson here for Indian speciality tea makers, on how to create a market for their teas. I had a matcha lemonade with coconut jelly, not the right choice for a windy day. I wished I had opted for a hot latte instead. But that's the thing—with so many matcha bars, pop-ups and options across the country offering access to the tea, returning to try another matcha has gotten so easy.

Weekly Top Korean News: BTS hints at 2026 comeback, THE BOYZ removes Ju Haknyeon, V and Jungkook prep for new projects, more
This week in K-entertainment brought a storm of headlines, from legal battles and shocking admissions to potential collaborations and long-awaited reunions. Former THE BOYZ member Ju Haknyeon has challenged his agency's claims about his exit. Meanwhile, BTS' V teased a mysterious project that has fans screaming Squid Game. And Jungkook might just be cooking up another hit with DJ Snake. Also, ex-NCT Taeil admitted to serious charges, and BTS' comeback timeline remains unclear. Read on to get all the deets. Ju claims forced exit from THE BOYZ Ju Haknyeon, former member of THE BOYZ, has broken his silence to share his version of the events surrounding his sudden departure from the group. In a detailed Instagram post, he claimed he never agreed to terminate his contract with ONE HUNDRED and called the agency's decision one-sided. He also denied any involvement in 'illegal activity.' He rejected reports that linked him to such allegations following his meeting with former Japanese actress Asuka Kirara. Ju expressed emotional distress over being branded unfairly and announced plans for legal action against media outlets spreading false claims. He vowed to fight for accountability. Meanwhile, ONE HUNDRED has responded, stating that Ju is distorting facts and insisting their decision was based on valid grounds. Is BTS' V joining Squid Game 3? BTS' V, also known as Kim Taehyung, recently held a Weverse livestream where he hinted at a mysterious new project he's been working on since his military discharge. Though he downplayed its importance, fans believe it could be something major, possibly a cameo in Squid Game Season 3. Theories gained momentum due to his past appearance in a Squid Game costume and his friendships with lead actors Lee Jung Jae and Im Siwan. Others suspect a solo music release or even a brand launch might be on the horizon. For now, fans eagerly await V's next move, hoping to see 'actor Taehyung' return to screens in a big way. Jungkook x DJ Snake: New collab soon? On June 16, BTS' Jungkook was spotted heading to the U.S. It sparked buzz among fans, especially after French DJ and producer DJ Snake revealed he's also in New York. Their unexpected overlap fueled speculation of a second collaboration, following their 2023 track Please Don't Change from Jungkook's debut album GOLDEN. DJ Snake's interaction with fans online, including liking a tweet about Jungkook being in NYC, added to the excitement. While nothing is confirmed, fans believe they might be working on a new track or planning a surprise performance. Many also speculate Jungkook's second solo album or world tour could be in the works ahead of BTS' full reunion in 2026. Ex-NCT's Taeil admits to charges Former NCT member Moon Taeil is facing serious legal consequences after admitting to misconduct involving an intoxicated foreign woman, alongside two others. During the first trial on June 18, all three defendants confessed to the charges. The prosecution has demanded a 7-year prison sentence for each, citing KakaoTalk messages that suggested the act was premeditated. These messages included discussions about moving the victim and preventing her from falling asleep. The victim's side has also requested a 10-year employment ban for Taeil. While the defense claimed the crime was unintentional and highlighted Taeil's surrender and settlement with the victim, the court is expected to deliver its final verdict on July 10, 2025. BTS comeback in 2026? BTS has officially completed military service as a full group, with SUGA being the last member discharged on June 21. And recently, a report from The Korea Herald claimed BTS was planning a full-group comeback in March 2026. It cites insiders who detailed a mid-March album release aligned with other HYBE group schedules. It was also alleged that BELIFT LAB's ENHYPEN had shifted their release to January to avoid overlapping with BTS. However, BIGHIT MUSIC has stepped in to clarify the rumors. In a statement, the agency stated that no final decision has been made regarding BTS' comeback timeline. They dismissed the comeback reports as unconfirmed. Fans continue to await official updates. NewJeans loses appeal In a significant setback for NewJeans, the Seoul High Court has rejected the group's appeal to lift restrictions on independent activities outside of ADOR. The decision upholds a previous injunction that grants ADOR full control over NewJeans' promotions, music production, and collaborations. It effectively banned the group from operating under their NJZ brand without agency approval. The legal dispute stems from broken trust between the members and ADOR, with the girls' side confirming reconciliation is no longer possible. The next court hearing over their exclusive contract dispute is set for July 24, 2025.
