The Biggest Fantasy Epic Since ‘The Green Knight’ Officially Debuts in 5 Weeks
The indie outfit A24 is using freshly injected funds to pump more money into its movies. After a decade in the indie trenches, during which only one of its movies passed the $100 million mark at the worldwide box office, A24 decided to level up in scale. Its first project of this new era was Alex Garland‘s dystopian thriller Civil War, which broke the studio’s opening weekend record and went on to gross around $130 million worldwide.
With a reported budget of $50 million, Civil War also happened to be the most expensive A24 movie ever made. The record has since been broken by Marty Supreme, which cost a reported $70 million to produce and went on to gross more than $190 million worldwide. A24 is about to enter production on an even more expensive movie, Garland’s video-game adaptation Elden Ring, whose budget is said to be in the $100 million range. But before that, however, A24 will release its next potential blockbuster — a period epic headlined by a bona fide A-lister.
Of course, nothing is guaranteed these days. Consider The Smashing Machine, which underperformed in 2025 with just $21 million worldwide against a reported budget of $50 million. The sports biopic, starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, was supposed to enter the more commercial tier created by Civil War. Instead, it ended up grossing less than one-third of Moonlight‘s haul at the worldwide box office. The studio’s next release is headlined by Hugh Jackman, who can currently be seen in the critically acclaimed mystery film The Sheep Detectives. A couple of years ago, Jackman starred in one of the most expensive films ever made, Deadpool & Wolverine, which grossed over $1.3 billion worldwide against a reported budget of more than $500 million.
Here’s When You Can Watch A24’s Next Potential Blockbuster
His A24 movie is The Death of Robin Hood, which puts a dark spin on the pop-culture icon whose exploits have entertained cinema audiences for more than a century. The Death of Robin Hood arrives 104 years after the very first theatrical feature about the character, which starred Douglas Fairbanks. The new movie is directed by Michael Sarnoski, who broke out with the indie gem Pig, starring Nicolas Cage, and then delivered the blockbuster horror prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, starring Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn.
Also starring Jodie Comer and Bill Skarsgård, The Death of Robin Hood will be released in theaters on June 19. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Ben Affleck’s Daughter Violet Trolled Over Mask-Free Outing
Ben Affleck‘s daughter, Violet, became the target of online trolling after she was seen not wearing her mask while out with her mother, Jennifer Garner.
The college student had been away for the past few months but recently returned home for the summer holidays. She joined her mother and younger brother, Samuel, for a casual trip to grab ice cream at a nearby creamery.
In recent years, Violet Affleck has advocated for mask-wearing and criticized those who have called for a ban on masks, leading to her getting scrutinized for her stance.

Violet Affleck made the rare decision to remove her mask during an outing with her mother, Jennifer Garner, and brother Samuel after returning home from college for the summer holidays.
However, the gesture led to her being mocked by netizens after images from the outing, obtained by the Daily Mail, hit the internet.
The negative reaction from critics online was likely a result of Violet’s pro-mask stance, especially as she has consistently spoken against calls to ban masks while demanding renewed COVID-19 protections.
In a sarcastic comment poking fun at Violet, one critic wrote, “lol any day now before it goes back on due to the ‘new’ pandemic.”
Another asked, “So someone finally got her the mental health support she needs?” while a third person said, “Oh Wow! Typical Hollywood hypocrisy!!:
Amid the trolling, some concerned folks also raised a different possibility behind why Violet was not wearing the mask.
“Could have been having a health issue that’s now resolved. Making a decision best for your mental and physical wellness is not everyone’s business,” noted an individual.
See the image of her mask-free outing here.
Why Ben Affleck’s Daughter Wears A Mask

The reason behind Violet wearing a mask is linked to her being diagnosed with a “post-viral condition” back in 2019.
Since then, she has not only preferred wearing a mask when out in public but has also advocated for others to do the same.
“I’m OK now, but I saw firsthand that medicine does not always have answers to the consequences of even minor viruses,” the young adult said during her speech for the LA County Board of Supervisors in 2024, according to a report.
In her speech, Violet also spoke against any ban on wearing masks, saying such regulations “do not keep us safer” and make “vulnerable members of our community less safe.”
The college student also added her voice to calls for increased access to “high-quality free tests and treatment” within the county.
Violet Affleck Took Her Mask Advocacy To The UN

In 2025, Violet Affleck also took her advocacy to a United Nations event, where she called for more action to address airborne diseases due to the immense risks they pose.
“It is neglect of the highest order to look children in the eyes and say, ‘We knew how to protect you, and we didn’t do it,’” Violet said at the time.
Speaking further, she criticized how many now seem to downplay the effects of COVID-19 despite the devastation it caused. In her view, she also believes that clean air should be considered just as much of a human right as clean water.
“Long COVID has surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in children in five years and under,” Violent added, before noting how terrified she was that some children “will not know a world without debilitating pain and exhaustion” due to the effects Covid had on them.
Violet Affleck’s UN Speech Sparked Backlash

Violet’s UN speech at the time led to intense backlash online due to her calls for reinstated mask mandates, a highly controversial stance since the COVID-19 pandemic.
One of her most prominent critics was Meghan McCain, who lashed out at Violet on social media, writing, “Every single thing about all of this is why people hate nepo babies so much.”
As reported by The Blast, McCain argued that Violet’s appearance at the UN felt unnecessary, implying she had little idea what she was talking about.
After being branded a “nepo baby” herself, McCain further doubled down on her criticism of Violet by stating that her parents would never co-sign her speaking at a high-profile event without being well-versed on the sensitive topic that was being discussed.
“Having famous parents is a double-edged sword, and if you’re going to put yourself out there, you gotta take the heat (as I have always done),” McCain added at the time.
The 20-Year-Old Received High Praise From Her Father, Ben Affleck

Violet has repeatedly been praised by her father, with one such instance occurring during a recent interview with Access Hollywood.
At the time, he noted how she takes after her mother, adding that she is “spectacular.” The actor also spoke about his coparent arrangement with Violet’s mother and how she makes it all so easy for him
“I’m very lucky that I’ve got a great partner and we’ve got great kids. It’s the joy of my life, and I’m just very, very lucky. And it makes me happy every day,” Affleck said, per Hola.
Affleck’s comments about Garner echoed remarks he made during an appearance on “Good Morning America” in 2020, per the Daily Mail.
“When you have children with somebody, you’re connected to them forever. And I’m very lucky she [Garner] is the mother of my children,” he said. “I’m very grateful and respectful of her.”

Wade Wilson Killed 2 Women in 2019: Inside the Case
Wade Wilson, the convicted murderer who became a viral social media fixation as the “Deadpool Killer,” is back in the spotlight after his crimes were documented in Paramount+’s Handsome Devil: Charming Killer and Netflix’s Worst Ex Ever. Wilson was found guilty in June 2024 of murdering Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz in Cape Coral, Florida, and was sentenced to death two months later.
Here’s everything to know about Wilson, his crimes and the social media fascination that surrounds him.
Inside Wade Wilson’s Crimes
Wilson killed Melton and Ruiz on the same morning of October 7, 2019, in Cape Coral, Florida, according to A&E. The night before, Wilson met Melton at a bar, where the two hit it off. Their group eventually returned to a friend’s house, and Wilson and Melton became intimate. Their encounter took a horrifying turn when Wilson strangled Melton in her bed, then stole her car and fled the scene.
That same morning, Wilson violently assaulted his then-girlfriend, Mila Montanez, at her workplace. His rampage continued when he spotted Ruiz walking to her nearby job. Wilson asked Ruiz for directions and managed to lure her into his car, where he strangled her. He initially thought Ruiz was dead and planned to bury her body, but when he realized she was still breathing, he ran her over several times with Melton’s stolen car.
In disturbing audio featured in the docuseries trailer, Wilson can be heard describing the killings in his own words. “I choked her out so she couldn’t breathe anymore,” he said in a recorded phone call. “I was on a rampage at this point.”
Another clip captured Wilson saying, “A rage overcomes me. Just kill, kill, kill. When I get that way, I become the devil. I’m like the lion, you’re the prey. I can sense it.”
Wade Wilson’s Arrest and Confession
Wilson was ultimately turned in by his own biological father, Steven Testasecca. After the murders, he confessed the graphic details of what he had done to Testasecca during several phone calls. Testasecca contacted law enforcement, and Wilson was arrested later that evening.
Once in police custody, Wilson reportedly showed no remorse for the killings. Authorities said he told them he would commit the crimes “again” if given the chance.
In voiceover audio featured in the trailer, Wilson is heard reflecting on his approach to the women he encountered. “This is what I do with women, you know. I use my charm, my good looks,” he said.
Wade Wilson’s Trial and Death Sentence
Wilson’s case went to trial in June 2024. He was found guilty on six counts, including two counts of first-degree murder, grand theft, burglary and battery, according to A&E. In August 2024, Wilson was sentenced to death.
Before the trial began, Wilson dramatically altered his appearance by getting tattoos covering his face and neck. The new look helped transform public perception of him — and turned the case into a social media phenomenon.
Has a Date Been Set for Wade Wilson’s Execution?
An execution date has not yet been set for Wilson. His attorneys are actively appealing his death sentence, arguing that a 2023 Florida state law that allows juries to recommend a death sentence without a unanimous vote should not apply to Wilson because his crimes were committed before the law was passed, according to NJ.com.
Wade Wilson’s Rise to Social Media Notoriety
As Wilson’s mugshot circulated online, his face tattoos and good looks made him a viral figure. The media nicknamed him the “Deadpool Killer” because he shares his name with the Marvel antihero played by Ryan Reynolds.
Public fascination quickly spilled offline. Women showed up to his court appearances in support, and entire social media accounts were dedicated to him. One commentator featured in Handsome Devil: Charming Killer noted that Wilson was “building a cult following.”
In the trailer, women from Wilson’s past recall describing him as “attractive” and “very nice” before his arrest, with some admitting they thought they could change him. The footage captures the unsettling collision of true crime and internet culture that the docuseries plans to explore.

Bruce Springsteen Snubs Chris Christie at Brooklyn Concert
Bruce Springsteen apparently had no time for former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie at his Brooklyn concert.
Video shared via X by journalist Mike Ryan showcased an awkward moment during Springsteen and the E Street Band’s Barclays Center show on Thursday, May 14.
As “The Boss,” walked through the crowd to shake hands with fans, Christie, 63, stuck out his own hand — and was seemingly ignored when Springsteen, 76, walked past him. Christie immediately pulled back his hand, shrugged and resumed clapping along with the music.
Us Weekly has reached out to Christie and Springsteen’s representatives for comment.
Springsteen and Christie have a somewhat contentious history. The former governor is a self-professed Springsteen super-fan who has boasted of attending more than 100 of the rocker’s concerts over the years.
“No one is beyond the reach of Bruce,” he once told The Atlantic.
Former President Barack Obama connected the two for the first time in November 2012 while Springsteen was riding on Air Force One. During a phone call about Hurricane Sandy, Obama told Christie that Springsteen wanted to speak to him and they had a brief conversation, per Variety.
That same month, Springsteen and Christie greeted one another backstage at a Hurricane Sandy benefit concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

“We hugged,” Christie told reporters of his in-person meeting with his musical idol. “He told me it’s official: we’re friends. I told the president today, actually, that the hug was great and when we got home, there was a lot of weeping because of the hug. And the president asked why. I said, ‘Well, to be honest, I was the one doing the weeping.’”
However, Springsteen later poked fun at Christie during the 2013 “Bridgegate” scandal. (Christie’s staff was accused of deliberately causing traffic jams near Fort Lee, New Jersey, by ordering the closure of a toll plaza. This political maneuvering was seen as retribution for Fort Lee’s Mayor Mark Sokolich opposing Christie’s administration.)
Christie was not criminally charged over the “Bridgegate” scandal, though many pundits suggested that the controversy eroded support for his ill-fated presidential campaign in 2016.
At the height of the controversy, Springsteen joined Jimmy Fallon on his Late Night show in 2014 to sing a parody version of “Born to Run” about “Bridgegate.”
“Baby this Bridgegate was just payback / It’s a bitch slap to the state Democrats,” Fallon, 51, and Springsteen sang. “We got to get out while we can / We’re stuck in Governor Chris Christie’s Fort Lee-New Jersey traffic jam!”
More recently, Springsteen offered an olive branch to President Donald Trump amid a years-long public feud. During an Austin, Texas concert on April 26, Springsteen lled his audience in a prayer after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting.
“We begin tonight with a prayer for our men and women in service overseas, we pray for their safe return,” Springsteen told fans. “We also send out a prayer of thanks that our president, nor anyone in the administration, nor anyone attending, was injured at last night’s incident at the [White House] press correspondents’ dinner.”
He went on, “We can disagree. We can be critical of those in power, and we can peacefully fight for our beliefs. But there is no place in any way, shape, or form for political violence of any kind in our beloved United States.”
Suspected shooter Cole Tomas Allen allegedly opened fire at the Washington Hilton on April 25 while President Trump, first lady Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other officials from their administration were attending the dinner.
Allen, 31, was apprehended after injuring a Secret Service agent. He later pleaded not guilty to charges of attempting to assassinate the president of the United States, transportation of a firearm and ammunition in interstate commerce with intent to commit a felony and discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence.

Martin Short Says Daughter’s Tragedy Echoes Wife’s Death
Martin Short is opening up about one of the most painful periods of his life with devastating honesty.
Years after losing his wife, Nancy Dolman, the beloved comedian is now grieving another unimaginable tragedy following the death of his daughter, Katherine.
While reflecting on both losses, Short revealed the emotional connection between their final words and why he believes mental illness deserves to be treated like any other disease.

The “Only Murders in the Building” star recently spoke to The New York Times while discussing his Netflix documentary “Marty, Life Is Short.”
During the emotional conversation, Short looked back on the final days of his wife, Nancy Dolman, who died from ovarian cancer in 2010 at age 58.
As he reflected on losing Dolman after nearly 30 years of marriage, Short revealed the heartbreaking final message she shared with him.
“Martin, let me go,” Short recalled her saying.
The actor explained that hearing similar emotions years later, after the death of his daughter, Katherine, forced him to think about grief and illness in a completely different way.
Short and Dolman first met in 1972 before marrying in 1980. Together, they raised three children: Katherine, Oliver, and Henry.
Over the years, Short frequently described Dolman as the emotional center of their family, making her loss especially difficult for him and their children.
Martin Short Drew Painful Connection To Daughter Katherine

While speaking with The New York Times, Short revealed that the death of his daughter Katherine earlier this year reopened emotions he had carried since losing his wife.
Katherine died by suicide in February at age 42, according to the Los Angeles coroner’s office.
As Short reflected on her death, he explained that he heard echoes of Dolman’s final plea in what he imagined his daughter may have been trying to express during her own struggle.
“Katherine was saying: Dad, let me go,” he said.
Short then shared his belief that mental illness deserves to be viewed with the same seriousness as physical diseases.
“I don’t see any difference between mental illness as a disease and cancer as a disease,” he explained. “In some cases, both are terminal. And in some cases, both are survivable.”
The actor admitted that losing a child brought a different level of pain than anything he had experienced before.
“This is your child,” Short said. “I am trying to head toward the light.”
Short Speaks Openly About Mental Health

Martin Short also addressed the tragedy during a May 10 appearance on “CBS News Sunday Morning,” where he described Katherine’s death as “a nightmare for the family.”
During the interview, the actor spoke candidly about his daughter’s years-long mental health battle and the challenges she faced privately.
“But the understanding that mental health and cancer, like my wife [had], are both diseases,” Short explained. “Sometimes with diseases, they are terminal. My daughter fought for a long time with extreme mental health, borderline personality disorder, other things, and did the best she could until she couldn’t.”
He again reflected on the emotional connection between Dolman’s final words and his daughter’s death.
“So Nan’s last words to me were, ‘Martin, let me go.’ And what she was saying was, ‘Dad, let me go.’”
The comedian also explained why he became involved with Bring Change to Mind, an organization focused on mental health awareness and ending stigma surrounding mental illness.
“So I hold a deep desire. And that’s why I’m involved in this organization, Bring Change to Mind … taking mental health out of the shadows, not being ashamed of it, not hiding from the word ‘suicide,’ but accepting that this could be the last stage of an illness,” he said.
Katherine Dedicated Her Life To Helping Others

Although Katherine largely stayed out of the public spotlight, she devoted much of her career to helping people struggling with mental health challenges.
She worked as a licensed clinical social worker in private practice while also serving part-time at Amae Health. According to reports, her responsibilities included psychotherapy, peer support, family support groups, and community outreach.
Friends and loved ones remembered Katherine as deeply compassionate and committed to supporting others through difficult moments.
Following her death, the Short family released a statement describing her as someone who brought warmth and happiness to everyone around her.
They said Katherine was “beloved by all and will be remembered for the light and joy she brought into the world.”
Despite the pain surrounding the tragedy, Martin Short has continued speaking publicly in hopes that discussing grief and mental illness openly may help other families feel less isolated.
Martin Short Wants Families To Stop Suffering In Silence
Elsewhere during his “CBS News Sunday Morning” interview, Short explained why he felt it was important not to hide from conversations about suicide and mental illness.
“If I said to the audience, any audience I was in, ‘How many have lost anyone from suicide?’ you’d be stunned by the hands that would go [up],” he said. “‘How many have mental health in their family?’ You’d be stunned by the hands that would go up.”
The actor believes many families quietly carry similar pain but avoid speaking openly about it because of shame or fear.
“So why pretend that this is your own pain? Maybe by sharing your pain it will help other people’s pain,” Short added.
For Short, turning grief into conversation now appears to be part of the healing process as he continues trying to move forward after two devastating losses that forever changed his life.

Hugh Jackman’s Detective Masterpiece Is in Deep Trouble Despite Rave Reviews
Sometimes, when you hear the plot of a movie, you think the executives behind it must have done a double-take when they read it. Or maybe it was a dare, and they didn’t realize, so they greenlit it for fear of being accused of “missing the point”. A murder mystery solved by sheep is absolutely one of them. Look at it on paper, though. Talking animals, a quality voice cast, Wolverine himself getting offed, and fuzzy creatures going Poirot, it could either become a surprise hit or leave everyone involved quietly pretending the sheep were never their idea, but now, thanks to financial filings, we have a clearer sense of just how big that swing really is.
From the looks of the numbers game, The Sheep Detectives reportedly needs to gross at least $128.6 million worldwide to break even, based on a rough 50-50 split between theaters and the studio. Now, the important thing is that those numbers are based on fact: via Forbes, the minimum cost was revealed through U.K. financial filings, with the production’s original cost reduced after a hefty U.K. tax break. Those filings put the movie’s cost at a minimum of $64.3 million after relief, which is where the break-even mathematics begin.
Based on Leonie Swann’s novel Three Bags Full, the film follows a flock of sheep who try to solve the murder of their beloved shepherd. The setup is basically Knives Out by way of Babe, which is utter nonsense, but the kind you’d want to watch. In fact, it sounds like the kind of movie Rian Johnson wishes he’d made. Maybe we’ll get Benoit Blanc on a farm next time. The project has also been a long time coming, with the book spending years in development before finally becoming a big-screen project. And critics have loved it so far, which is great. Reviews have said the weird premise, charm, and emotional weight of the film all hit.
Who Stars in ‘The Sheep Detectives’?
The cast includes Hugh Jackman (Logan, The Greatest Showman) as George, the shepherd whose death sends the story into motion — spoiler alert, sorry, but it is the plot after all — with voice performances from Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep, Seinfeld), Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad, Malcolm in the Middle), Regina Hall (Girls Trip, Support the Girls), Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Logan), Brett Goldstein (Ted Lasso, Shrinking), Emma Thompson (Sense and Sensibility, Nanny McPhee), and Nicholas Braun (Succession, Cat Person).

Apple TV Spent Half a Billion Dollars on This Chart-Topping 10/10 Spy Thriller
When you think of a spy show, you imagine glamorous locations, fancy suits, high-tech gadgets, and the most handsome people in the world. Not this one. It’s about broken-down intelligence officers, terrible offices, worse hygiene, and one of the greatest actors in history farting all the time. That has always been part of the appeal. The show doesn’t need glossy Bond-style fantasy to work, for in its place it has insults, horrible buildings, betrayal, and a group of rejected spies who somehow keep becoming extremely useful.
Slow Horses has, since 2022, become one of Apple TV’s best and most consistent dramas, but it has cost a lot to get it to this point, as via Forbes, newly revealed U.K. financial statements have shown that Apple has spent more than half a billion dollars on the spy series, with the production benefiting from the U.K. government’s Audio-Visual Expenditure Credit, which provides reimbursement on qualifying production spend.
What Is ‘Slow Horses’ About?
The series is based on the Slough House (which is where the name Slow Horses comes from) novels by Mick Herron and follows a group of MI5 rejects exiled to Slough House, where careers go to die under the aggressively unpleasant and flatulent supervision of Jackson Lamb. The team is continually underestimated, and yet somehow finds a way to succeed despite their horrible offices.
The cast includes Gary Oldman (Darkest Hour, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) as Jackson Lamb, Jack Lowden (Dunkirk, Fighting With My Family) as River Cartwright, Kristin Scott Thomas (The English Patient, Darkest Hour) as Diana Taverner, Saskia Reeves (Luther, Wolf Hall) as Catherine Standish, Rosalind Eleazar (The Personal History of David Copperfield, Harlots) as Louisa Guy, Christopher Chung (Waterloo Road, Silk) as Roddy Ho, Jonathan Pryce (The Two Popes, Brazil) as David Cartwright, and Aimee-Ffion Edwards (Peaky Blinders, Detectorists) as Shirley Dander.
Slow Horses is streaming on Apple TV.
