Ryan Seacrest is just a tad excited about his new job as host of Wheel of Fortune.

Seacrest shared some behind-the-scenes snippets from his very first day of being on set—running, skipping, leaping for joy, and, of course, spinning the wheel.

He spun the wheel a lot, and who can blame him! At one point in the video, posted on Seacrests's Instagram, he spun the wheel and leaned in close to listen better.

He said:

"Listen to the wheel, it's iconic. I find it soothing."

Seacrest will be taking over for longtime host Pat Sajak, who Seacrest honored in a tweet back in 2023 when he was chosen for the show.

Folks were super excited for Seacrest to get started.

Marvel Just Confirmed That Chris Evans Is Returning For 'Avengers: Doomsday'—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings

Folks, once again, continuity is more of a suggestion than a rule in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel has officially confirmed that Chris Evans is returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, and the internet has responded exactly how you’d expect: screaming, celebrating, arguing, and a very justified side-eye toward how Sam Wilson keeps getting treated.

The confirmation comes via a teaser now playing exclusively in theaters ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash. There is no official online release, despite leaks circulating. If you didn’t catch it on the big screen, Marvel’s response is essentially: sorry, guess you had to be there.
