Bing News Quiz Answers – August 15, 2025 | Today’s Breaking News Solutions

Looking for today’s answers and a quick path to those Microsoft Rewards points? Here’s the no-fluff rundown—plus a reality check where the quiz tripped over itself.


📝 Today’s Correct Answers (Fast List)

  1. Which animated movie reboot premiered in theaters recently?
    Answer: Smurfs. (In theaters July 18, 2025.)

  2. Which footballer transferred from Brentford to Manchester United for £65 million in July 2025?
    Answer: Bryan Mbeumo. (Deal agreed around July 18–21; £65m plus potential add-ons.)

  3. Which day was celebrated as National Moon Day in the U.S.?
    Answer: July 20. (Tied to Apollo 11’s first Moon landing.)

  4. Which NFL team signed wide receiver Bryan Mbeumo for $65 million?
    Answer shown in some keys: Manchester United — which is wrong. Manchester United is a Premier League football club, not an NFL team, and Mbeumo is a football winger, not an NFL wide receiver. If you see this item, treat it as a malformed question.

💡 Heads-up: The £65m Mbeumo move is a soccer transfer to Manchester United, not an NFL signing. If the quiz forces a choice, pick “None of the above” if available—or expect the official key to mark this one inconsistently.


🎬 Quick Fact: “Smurfs” Is Back

Paramount’s Smurfs reboot hit theaters on July 18, 2025—a family-friendly reset that leans on nostalgia and fresh animation. Great crowd-pleaser, easy question.

⚽ Transfer Talk: Bryan Mbeumo to Manchester United

United’s summer business included Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford for £65m (rising with add-ons). It was widely reported mid-July and subsequently completed. Expect him on the right side, cutting in, pressing like a machine.

🌕 Why July 20 Is Moon Day

July 20 marks Apollo 11’s first human steps on the Moon in 1969. In the U.S., National Moon Day nods to that date; globally, the UN also recognizes International Moon Day on July 20. Either way, it’s the date you’re after.
