Today in Entertainment: 'Stranger Things' announces Season 2 release date; guess what is now YouTube's most-viewed video
YouTube viewers have been seeing Wiz Khalifa's "See You Again" again and again. The music video has ousted Psy's "Gangnam Style" as the most-watched video on YouTube.

Featuring Charlie Puth, "See You Again" edged out the viral 2012 hit by more than 2 million views, ending the K-pop sensation's five-year streak as the most viewed, the video-sharing site told the Associated Press in a statement.

"See You Again"  broke the record on the Google-owned service Monday and has been viewed nearly 2.9 billion times (yes, billion) as of Tuesday morning.

The video was first uploaded in April 2015 and pegged to the much-anticipated release of "Furious 7" following the death of the muscle-car franchise's star Paul Walker.

Meanwhile, the dance-move spawning, Auto-tuned "Gangnam Style" has notched 2.894 billion views since it was uploaded in July 2012. Trailing more than 250 million views behind it is the video for Justin Bieber's "Sorry."
Wiz Khalifa, the Philly rapper known for the hits "Black and Yellow" and "Work Hard Play Hard," was pleased that the song has been able to "inspire and impact so many lives," AP said.

Puth was also pleasantly surprised by the news, tweeting that he joined YouTube in 2007 hoping to make a video that could hit 10,000 views: "Just heard about See You Again...wow."
Deadpool ❤️ Wonder Woman too!

Alas, that fan fiction won't be making it to the big screen anytime soon. However, "Deadpool" star Ryan Reynolds and the minds behind Marvel's foul-mouthed anti-hero did show some love to DC's Amazonian princess by responding to news that "Wonder Woman" had surpassed their film's box-office standing.

The official Twitter account for "Deadpool" on Monday evening shared a photo featuring the titular star's hands forming a heart around a necklace bearing Wonder Woman's logo — a throwback to the irreverent mercenary's original movie poster.

"The Merc may be filthier, but her B.O. is stronger. Congrats #WonderWoman," the tweet said. 

The image was retweeted by Reynolds himself, who starred in and produced the 2016 comic-book flick. (The actor is now shooting "Deadpool 2" slated for a summer 2018 release.)
Warner Bros.' "Wonder Woman," starring Gal Gadot as Diana Prince, has proved to be a summer blockbuster, earning more than $368 million at the domestic box office since its release on June 2, becoming the most successful domestic release in the DC Extended Universe.

Gadot thanked fans on Twitter on Monday "for making #WonderWoman a success."
Twentieth Century Fox's "Deadpool" made $363 million at the domestic box office, but it still leads "Wonder Woman" with $783 million worldwide. The DC film has made $745 million worldwide, though it's poised to keep earning over the summer.

Gadot will reprise her role as the indomitable goddess in DC's "Justice League" team-up flick in November.

According to Screenrant, "Wonder Woman 2" reportedly will remain a prequel and be set in the final days of the Cold War, with Diana taking on Soviet forces. The main plot of "Wonder Woman" focused on Diana's origin story and took place during World War I, decades before the main action in DC's "Man of Steel" and "Batman v Superman."
The rattled, bleary-eyed residents of Hawkins, Ind., are gearing up for a second go-round -- and this year, things only get stranger.

On Tuesday, Netflix announced that Season 2 of "Stranger Things" will officially be ready for binge-watching on Oct. 27 (a fittingly hair-raising release date, given that the season will take place around Halloween 1984).

In conjunction with the announcement, Netflix released a new, 25-second teaser that reveals almost nothing about the upcoming season.

But its customary vintage-horror feel and eerie-retro aesthetic confirm that, in its second iteration, "Stranger Things" will probably still be that show you can't stop watching, even though you're a little bit afraid of it. 

In a press release, Netflix offered a bit more context: "It's 1984 and the citizens of Hawkins, Ind., are still reeling from the horrors of the Demogorgon and the secrets of Hawkins Lab. Will Byers has been rescued from the Upside Down but a bigger, sinister entity still threatens those who survived."

Watch the teaser below.
