Watch Gal Gadot beat up both Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds in new 'Red Notice' trailer

 

Gal Gadot is kicking ass and taking names in the new trailer for Netflix's upcoming heist movie, Red Notice. We're given a 3:32 clip of Gadot taking on both Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Ryan Reynolds in a fight scene that's both action-packed and ridiculous, setting the tone for the film. Johnson called it "Netflix's biggest movie, ever" during the Tudum live stream event, where he introduced this trailer.

Johnson plays an FBI profiler in the movie who's tracking down the world's greatest art thief (Gadot) with the help of "the greatest conman the world has never seen" (Reynolds). He teased that in Red Notice, "nothing is ever what it seems." The movie hits the streaming service on November 12.

Google Photos will bring Locked Folders feature to all Android phones

Google Photos brings its private photo-friendly feature to all Android phones, at least those running on Android 6 and above. The company announced that the Locked Folder feature would be coming to users beyond Pixel owners soon. It was initially launched for newer Pixels back in June.The feature lets you lock photos behind a password-protected space in Google Photos.

You set up a Locked Folder by going to Library > Utilities > Locked Folder in the app. You can then move your photos manually to the folder. It isn't clear if Google will let you save new shots directly into the said folder like you can with the Pixel camera app. Google has plans to bring many new features to Android this fall. Perhaps Locked Folders will roll out then, too.

Microsoft commits to three years of updates for the Surface Duo 2

If you wondered how long Microsoft plans to support the just-launched Surface Duo 2, the company told Android Authority that it would offer three years of software and security updates for the dual-screened device. We also recently learned the original Surface Duo would finally get the Android 11 update before the end of the year. Now, let's hope Microsoft maintains a consistent updating schedule for the devices and perhaps delivers Android 12 sooner than later to one or both devices.
