Wait, thats Jonah Hill? The Outcome makeover turns the actor unrecognizable
On Feb. 3, Apple Studios rolled out a comprehensive press day, and Mashable was there for all the breaking news on Apple TV shows like Pluribus, Sugar, and Margo’s Got Money Troubles, as well as upcoming films like the Keanu Reeves-fronted comedy Outcome. And it’s a first look at that dark comedy that has drawn a lot of attention online, particularly from Jonah Hill fans.
Directed by Hill, Outcome centers on an adored Hollywood star named Reef Hawk (Reeves) whose reputation is threatened by a blackmailer with a mysterious video. Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer co-star, as does Hill. And it was the first look images of Hill that surprised the internet.
At the event itself (as you can see above), Hill sported thick glasses, short hair, and an auburn beard. This is fairly similar to how he looked in his last directorial effort, the 2022 documentary about his therapist, Stutz, and in the 2023 Eddie Murphy vehicle You People.

However, in the production stills from Outcome, Hill is hard to clock opposite Reeves. Check it out:

In profile with a shaved head and gray beard, Hill breaks from what audiences have come to expect of his onscreen appearance. So, already Outcome has some added mystique. Mashable’s Entertainment Reporter Belen Edwards shared that Hill plays a crisis lawyer hired by Reeve’s character in the film. But could this new look mark a new chapter in Hill’s career, either as an actor or director?
We should know soon, as Hill has two movies slated for 2026 release, both of which he directs and co-stars in. (He also shares screenwriting credit on both films with Ezra Woods.) On top of Outcome, he’s also got Cut Off, a dramedy about two rich siblings (Hill and Kristen Wiig) whose lives take a turn when their parents cut off their financial support. Cut Off doesn’t yet have a release date. Outcome hits Apple TV on April 10.
How to watch: Outcome premieres April 10 on Apple TV.

This lightweight and portable Lenovo Chromebook is now 70% off
TL;DR: The refurbished Lenovo 11.6-inch Chromebook 100E Gen 2 is on sale for $59.99 (reg. $199).
A capable everyday laptop doesn’t have to cost a fortune. For anyone who browses, streams, or handles light work on the go, this refurbished Chromebook checks the right boxes, and for a limited time, it’s down to just $59.99 (reg. $199).
The Lenovo 11.6-inch Chromebook 100E Gen 2 is built for lightweight, web-based use. Powered by an AMD A4-9120C processor and 4GB of RAM, it handles multitasking across browser tabs, email, and cloud-based apps like a charm. The 32GB of solid-state storage isn’t meant for a large local library, but it delivers quick boot times and reliably smooth day-to-day performance.

Because it runs on Chrome OS, it’s designed around cloud storage and browser-based tools, which help keep things fast and simple without requiring much maintenance. Automatic updates and built-in security features also make it a low-effort option for everyday use.
Its compact 11.6-inch HD display and lightweight design make it easy to carry around, whether you’re moving between rooms, commuting, or packing it in a bag for school or travel. You’ll also get a mix of modern ports, including USB-C for charging and accessories, plus USB 3.2 and an SD card slot for added flexibility.

$646.20
Save $487.20
Planning a trip often comes with a familiar thought: I wish I knew at least a little of the language. And it makes sense. Learning to speak the language is a surefire way to enjoy your trip more.
Babbel makes it easier to learn, and a lifetime access is just $159 (reg. $646.20) with the StackSocial code LEARN.
Mashable Deals
Babbel focuses on helping users build practical conversation skills, not just memorize vocabulary. Lessons are designed by more than 100 linguists and structured around real-world scenarios — like ordering food, asking for directions, or navigating transportation. The idea is to help learners feel more comfortable actually speaking, not just recognizing words on a screen.
Lessons typically run 10 to 15 minutes, making it easier to fit learning into a daily routine without the overwhelm. Over time, that consistency can add up, and many users find they can handle basic conversations within a few weeks. A key part of the experience is its speech recognition technology, which helps guide pronunciation. Instead of guessing how something should sound, learners can practice speaking and get feedback along the way.
Mashable Trend Report
There’s also an AI-powered conversation feature that allows users to simulate real dialogue, helping bridge the gap between studying and actual communication.
The subscription includes access to 14 languages. With offline access, personalized review sessions, and a focus on everyday topics, Babbel positions itself as a practical tool for building language confidence.
Don’t miss getting lifetime access to Babbel for a one-time $159 payment (reg. $646.20) with the StackSocial code LEARN.

Clean, restock, refresh — all with one $15 Sam’s Club membership
TL;DR: A $15 Sam’s Club membership can help streamline your spring refresh with bulk essentials and lifestyle finds.
Spring tends to bring a long list of to-dos — organizing closets, kitchens, outdoor spaces, and even office setups. It’s also a time when shopping trips can start to add up.
A one-year Sam’s Club membership for $15 (reg. $50) through March 29 offers a way to streamline that process by bringing a wide range of essentials into one place.
Mashable Deals
Rather than bouncing between multiple stores, members can access groceries, household goods, seasonal outdoor items, clothing, and more in a single trip. For anyone tackling a spring refresh, that convenience alone may help save time and simplify planning.
Mashable Trend Report
Bulk purchasing is another key advantage. Buying larger quantities of frequently used items — like pantry staples, cleaning supplies, or paper goods — can help reduce the cost per unit over time. For families, that can translate into fewer midweek store runs.
For small business owners or home-based entrepreneurs, it can also support more predictable inventory and supply management. Beyond products, membership includes additional perks that add value. These include discounts on travel, which is a fan favorite. There’s also a practical side to having fewer errands on your list. Consolidating shopping into fewer trips can free up time for other priorities, whether that’s work, family, or simply enjoying the season.
