A comedy can age really poorly these days, but not one as fabulous as this. Its skincare routine is just too good; it’s moisturizing, minding its own business, and ain’t nobody going to dim its lighting. This is a movie about the things you’ll do for your family, even if that’s completely antithetical to who you are as a person, which is probably why it’s so wonderful. And better than that, it’s free to watch.

The Birdcage follows Armand Goldman (Robin Williams), the owner of a drag nightclub in Miami, and his longtime partner Albert (Nathan Lane), the club’s star performer. When Armand’s son announces that he’s engaged to the daughter of a conservative senator, the family tries to stage an extremely normal dinner to impress her parents. You already know exactly how this is going to go.

The cast also includes Gene Hackman (The French Connection) as Senator Kevin Keeley, Dianne Wiest (Bullets over Broadway) as Louise Keeley, Calista Flockhart (Ally McBeal) as Barbara Keeley, and Hank Azaria (The Simpsons) as Agador Spartacus.

Was ‘The Birdcage’ a Success?

The Birdcage hit it big at the box office, with audiences, culturally, and with awards bodies too. The Birdcage cost about $31 million to produce, and went on to gross about $185 million globally, which is just silly money for a comedy like this. It was also the #1 movie in North America the weekend it opened, and it stayed top for a number of weeks, so this wasn’t an under-the-radar performer. As for the critics, they loved it too. It was warmly received and, for those who’ve seen it lately, it still holds up well. Rotten Tomatoes currently has The Birdcage at 84% from critics and 81% from audiences. Awards-wise, it also had real recognition. The cast won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast, and the movie earned an Oscar nomination for Best Art Direction.

Directed by Mike Nichols, The Birdcage is streaming for free now on Fawesome.

No matter how many movies and TV shows Pierce Brosnan stars in, he’ll always be remembered for his role as James Bond in a series of 007 movies in the ’90s. Brosnan has since garnered fame for his performance in the hit Paramount Plus crime thriller show, MobLand, which has spent some unfortunate time in the news cycle over the last few weeks. Reports surfaced online that Brosnan’s MobLand co-star Tom Hardy had been fired from the show for now showing up on set on time and feuding with producers, but this was debunked when it was reported that he had not been fired and the team was mending bridges to ensure his return. Brosnan also recently teamed up with Dwayne Johnson for the 2022 superhero movie, Black Adam, which is currently streaming on HBO Max.

Pierce Brosnan starred in four James Bond movies, starting with Golden Eye in 1995. He reprised his role as 007 just a few years later in Tomorrow Never Dies, and in the final year of the 1990s, he headlined The World Is Not Enough. Brosnan took a break from playing James Bond in 2000 and 2001 before he suited up as the iconic spy for the final time in Die Another Day. Most fans would agree that his final movie is, by far, the weakest of Brosnan’s four Bond movies, which is mostly due to sloppy writing and poor visual effects — it’s no fault of Brosnan’s performance. Still, all these years later, Die Another Day has surged into the VOD top 10 on platforms such as Prime Video and Apple TV. The film does not have a streaming home in America right now, but it could return to Prime Video soon now that Amazon owns the IP.

What Is ‘Die Another Day’ About?

The official synopsis for Die Another Day, which also stars Halle Berry and Rosamund Pike, reads as follows:

“After being betrayed and imprisoned in North Korea for fourteen months, James Bond escapes MI6 custody to hunt down the man who exposed him. His trail leads to a shadowy billionaire and a devastating orbital weapon capable of global destruction — and a mole hiding closer to home than Bond ever imagined.”

Die Another Day was written by Neal Purvis and Robert Wade, and Lee Tamahori stepped behind the camera to direct the film. The 2002 James Bond movie grossed $431 million at the box office against a $142 million budget, and it earned scores of 55% from critics and 41% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes.

Check out Die Another Day on VOD platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV, and stay tuned to Collider for more streaming updates and coverage of Brosnan’s future projects.

The Love Island USA couples continued to find ways to act on their chemistry by performing sex acts that were caught on the night cameras — before an emotional elimination.

Viewers noticed that in footage from the Friday, June 12, episode of the Peacock show, Sincere Rhea and Melanie Moreno were getting up close and personal — as did Zach Georgiou and Kayda Bosse. This came after Corbin Mims and Kenzie Annis appeared to take their relationship to the next level.

Love Island USA viewers had a front row seat to the sexcapades that took place this year in Fiji. While past seasons featured some couples finding ways to share an intimate moment or two, it felt like season 7 set some kind of record with the amount of sexual “journeys” taking place in the communal bedroom.

“We did have a code word [for sex which was] ‘journey’ and it kind of traumatizes me now. When somebody outside is like, ‘Oh, a journey?’ I’m like, ‘How dare you!’ I am clutching my pearls,” Amaya “Papaya” Espinal joked on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast in July 2025. “People were having journeys.”

Since there wasn’t room for much privacy, Amaya confirmed that it did get awkward at night, adding, ”I’m like, ‘Can I sleep?’ We already don’t get enough sleep around here and then you hear [sexual noises]. The earplugs [we got] were not plugging? Those were low quality earplugs because we were still able to hear things. Especially if there’s a couple right next to you.”

Amaya was also asked about her time in The Hideaway with fellow winner Bryan Arenales. (The pair have since split.)

“It was steamy, all right. We were hot and we were sweating. It really was a great feeling to just have that private and intimate moment,” she gushed. “We actually do want to talk to each other and we love being next to each other. The next morning, we were just sitting and we were just quiet. It was beautiful and silent.
I really did feel like I found my best friend where I could yap away or have a quieter moment.”

When asked whether Bryan really did “eat that kitty in The Hideaway,” Amaya coyly replied, “Well he definitely took that advice. We had a great night.”

While Love Island USA viewers know that “journey” is a code word the Islanders use for sex, the term “folded” is another one that has been brought up multiple times last season. Chris Seeley quietly revealed to Bryan that he “folded” the night prior with Huda Mustafa, adding, “I wasn’t going to tell anybody. [But] I couldn’t do it any more. I really tried [to hold out]. I just didn’t want to tell the other boys.”

In a confessional, Chris elaborated on how having sex has helped his connection with Huda evolve.

When it comes to cop dramas, few names carry the same weight as Titus Welliver, who has spent the better part of the last decade playing Harry Bosch. What makes his rise to prominence even more impressive is that most of the world’s most popular police procedurals came from network TV — Welliver was one of the first actors to commit to bringing a great cop drama to life on streaming, which he did thanks to Prime Video. Welliver first played Bosch all the way back in 2014, where he starred as the LA-based detective for seven seasons in the show of the same name. Bosch went off the air in 2021, but fans didn’t have to wait long to see Welliver return to the role in Bosch: Legacy, which even saw him team up with one of his arch-rivals.

Most fans felt that Bosch: Legacy was poised to be the perfect replacement series for the original Bosch, but those same viewers were devastated when it was canceled after only three seasons. What made it more tough to swallow was that it didn’t feel like a natural end to the character, more a studio-based decision that didn’t sit right with fans. Now two years removed from a single episode of Bosch: Legacy hitting Prime Video, fans continue to show why the series should never have been canceled in the first place. Bosch: Legacy has surged back into the streaming top 10 as fans anxiously await the arrival of Ballard Season 2. After featuring in a few episodes of Ballard Season 1, Welliver is confirmed to return in the second season of the spin-off series.

What Is the Bosch Spin-Off ‘Ballard’ About?

The official synopsis for Ballard, which is led by Maggie Q, reads as follows:

“Detective Renée Ballard leads the LAPD’s new and underfunded cold case division, tackling the city’s most challenging long-forgotten crimes with empathy and relentless determination. As she peels back layers of crimes spanning decades — including a serial killer’s string of murders and a murdered John Doe — she soon uncovers a dangerous conspiracy within the LAPD. With the help of her volunteer team and retired detective Harry Bosch, Detective Ballard navigates personal trauma, professional challenges, and life-threatening dangers to expose the truth.”

Prime Video is also actively developing a new Bosch prequel series, Start of Watch, which will give fans a look inside Bosch’s younger days. Welliver is not involved with the show in any capacity, but Amazon has recruited Cameron Monaghan to star as a young Harry Bosch in the show. Monaghan is best known for playing Cal Kestis in the Star Wars Jedi video game series.

Check out all episodes of Bosch and Ballard on Prime Video, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the Bosch universe.

Yellowstone‘s Dutton Ranch spinoff introduced a twist by killing off a surprising character in a gruesome death.

During the Friday, June 12, episode of the hit Paramount+ series, Chet (Hart Denton) was encouraged by Rob-Will (Jai Courtney) to seek revenge for his firing. Chet decided to seek out Joaquin — and even shot him in the hand — before Miguel (Berto Colón) got the chance to take the ranch hand out.

Before his death, Chet worked at 10 Petal and was made a foreman before being demoted and fired by Rip (Cole Hauser).

Yellowstone initially introduced viewers to the Dutton family in 2018. The Paramount Network show came to an end in 2024, expanding its universe with Luke Grimes’ CBS show Marshals and Dutton Ranch, which premiered in May.

Dutton Ranch has introduced some new characters played by Annette Bening and Ed Harris. Other newcomers include Courtney, Natalie Alyn Lind, Pablo Raba, J. R. Villarreal — and Marc Menchaca‘s Zachariah.

Earlier this month, Menchaca weighed in on whether the deadly twists on the show had him worried about his character Zachariah’s fate, telling Us, “It’s always a possibility — and I have a pretty good track record of saying bye bye on a show.”

Menchaca poked fun at his bad luck on screen.

“My wife [Lena Headey] made a death reel for me for my birthday this last year. It was about 10 minutes and it didn’t even have all my deaths,” he quipped. “So I was a little bit [worried].”

He continued: “I was like, ‘They may take me out so I better get on everybody’s good side.’ Hopefully it won’t happen but the way things are now, you get these scripts just a little bit before. Then you start going through and you’re like, ‘Is it gonna happen next scene?’ Thankfully it has not [yet].”

Filming Dutton Ranch allowed Menchaca to connect with his roots.

“I grew up that life. I just took from ranchers that I worked for,” he shared. “I wanted to be a team roper when I was a kid and it brought my childhood back to me.”

Looking ahead, Menchaca teased what is yet to come, adding, “Obviously there’s going to be tension. It definitely creates tension and we will find out that there are some things about the 10 Petal that are unbecoming of a country boy.”

Dutton Ranch airs Fridays on Paramount+.

Aliens have existed for a very long time in Disclosure Day, and there’s proof of that. On the one hand, the Wardex Corporation, part of the U.S. Government and secretly assigned to extraterrestrial investigations, wants to keep that evidence from reaching the public. On the other hand, a former Wardex employee named Hugo Wakefield (Colman Domingo) leads a revolution to release that information to the masses worldwide. People have a right to know, regardless of how it affects them, once they do.

Caught in the middle of Wardex and Hugo’s obsession with revealing the truth is Daniel Kellner (Josh O’Connor), a cybersecurity expert running around with what is seemingly all of the government’s extraterrestrial evidence in his backpack. Daniel rescues his girlfriend Jane Blankenship (Eve Hewson) at the beginning of the film, and she tags along or shows up whenever it’s convenient to the storyline. Jane is a former nun solely so Disclosure Day can make comparisons to religion and whether aliens existing and being revealed to the public is blasphemous or not.  

Leading Wardex is Noah Scanlon (Colin Firth), a man who insists on using alien technology to catch up to Daniel, even though it is clearly killing him. The film introduces a gray crystal the size of a travel toothbrush holder that allows the user to telepathically control and communicate with others.

As Daniel contemplates just dumping everything he has online as he flees, a Kansas City TV meteorologist named Margaret Fairchild (Emily Blunt) speaks alien dialect on the air and gains the ability to know everything about someone just by looking into their eyes. Margaret and Daniel are connected in a way that will be key in the mission to reveal aliens to the world.

No Surface Is That Reflective

There are a few things Disclosure Day does right. It isn’t fair to say that Steven Spielberg is a hack or has lost just about everything that made much of his previous work enjoyable, because certain elements still suggest otherwise. Cinematographer Janusz Kaminski returns to work with Spielberg for the 19th time, and it shows as the film looks incredible.

The car chase sequence where Wardex finds Daniel and Jane at the farmhouse is a highlight of the film. As Daniel sneaks around the field, the camera impressively waltzes through and around a fence. The sequence is stitched together as a one-take, and it makes you wonder if there are any hidden cuts because it’s executed so well.

The film has an obsession with lens flares and brightly lit background windows, though. Like, if J.J. Abrams and Steven Spielberg got into a lens-flare-off, it would be like staring at the sun until our eyes exploded. It’s every major sequence for the first half of Disclosure Day, though. It’s an odd choice since the film is like 93% dialogue, and everything around them can’t be that reflective or take place during that time of day.

As a science fiction film, though, Disclosure Day is a chore to sit through. Clocking in at just under two and a half hours, the film is congested with dialogue. You expect a certain amount of exposition in a film to set the story or eventually lead to something worthwhile. Disclosure Day is all exposition and no payoff. The way the film concludes is so melodramatic and unsatisfying. It feels like Steven Spielberg and screenwriter David Koepp were going for how we, as a species, would react if certifiable extraterrestrial proof were unveiled like this.

But all Disclosure Day does is remind you of how stupid the human race actually is. The final moment before the film cuts to black is infuriating, as well. You’ve waited two and a half hours for this moment, and it’s cut short for either obnoxious ambiguity or a potential unwanted sequel. It’s wild that David Koepp wrote 42 drafts of the screenplay, and this is what he landed on.

Awkwardness Abounds

There’s an awkwardness to Steven Spielberg films in the way they’re written that I can’t tell is universally accepted by those who adore his work or goes unnoticed with his status as a well-known director. The attempts at humor are often lame, while the character interactions are overwhelmingly corny. Disclosure Day is no different, and it’s even more irksome because the film feels so long.

Here’s this long-winded and torturous stretch of dialogue with the only reward being a smart ass glance from across the room, a bad attempt at a joke that is total cringe, or body language that is offensively embarrassing for everyone involved. It feels like an intentional dick move you can’t escape from. Disclosure Day is like being trapped in the spiked room in Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom while somebody dry humps one of the spikes as a spike pierces your brain and says something like, “At least I’ll have more leg room on airplanes,” right before you’re crushed to death. It’s trash.

It doesn’t help that the people we’re forced to tag along with for most of the film are selfish, annoying pricks. Margaret has a boyfriend named Jackson (Wyatt Russell) who is such a gigantic POS. Margaret dreams of being a serious news anchor, but is currently stuck dancing and acting a fool while showcasing the weather. She wants to move even though they just got settled in Kansas City, and Jackson doesn’t want to because he has his music and he just scored performances two days a week locally.

To make matters worse, he doesn’t want Margaret to succeed or move on because he likes seeing her dance on television. Screw aliens and career advancement since Margaret gives Jackson boners now. After Margaret learns things she shouldn’t, Jackson worries about the dumbest things that don’t matter while something that affects the entire world is going on. She starts talking about Daniel, and he thinks it’s an ex-boyfriend, and he lies to her and does something that would have derailed the entire story if he had succeeded.

Meanwhile, Emily Blunt overacts, Josh O’Connor underacts, and Colin Firth stumbles around the entire film with that look on his face like he crapped his pants and is now trying to hide it because he can’t go home and change. But everyone knows, Colin. Everyone knows.

The filmmaking aspects of Disclosure Day are impressive, and they should be, considering Steven Spielberg’s illustrious career and the people he continues to work with, but the story feels so elongated for no reason, with no real conclusion, and the dialogue and humor are so awful when there is so much of each.

Disclosure Day is playing in theaters.

Carson Rowland’s absence from Sweet Magnolias has sparked backlash from fans, but the actor has been busy working on a new project — and it’s finally been revealed.

Rowland, 28, will have a “recurring role” on NBC’s The Rockford Files, Deadline reported on Thursday, June 11.

While Rowland’s character on the reboot has not been shared, the show was picked up to series by NBC last month.

The Rockford Files initially aired from 1974 to 1980 starring James Garner as former inmate turned private investigator, Jim Rockford.

Sweet Magnolias is gearing up for its big season 5 return — but Serenity, South Carolina, will be missing one familiar face. Showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson exclusively confirmed to Us Weekly ahead of the show’s Thursday, June 11, premiere that Carson Rowland, who portrays Tyler “Ty” Townsend, made the “decision” to sit out on the […]

In the new iteration, David Boreanaz will portray the lead. Felix Solis and Jacki Weaver have also been announced as part of the cast, playing Jim’s best friend, Nitty, and trailer park neighbor Karma, respectively.

According to the logline, the new series follows Jim Rockford after he’s been “newly paroled for a crime he didn’t commit, who returns to work as a private investigator in Los Angeles but finds himself targeted by both police and organized crime.”

While Rowland hasn’t publicly confirmed his part on The Rockford Files, he’s hinted that he’s back to work via social media in recent weeks.

“I’m alive. Promise!” Rowland wrote via Instagram on May 28, sharing a series of photos, including one picture of him on camera shooting something.

In addition to filming The Rockford Files pilot, Rowland recently shot three independent movies, according to Deadline, which have not been released.

The actor’s future on Sweet Magnolias, meanwhile, is still up in the air after his character, Ty, was missing from most of season 4.

After it was revealed that Carson Rowland won’t be returning for season 5 of Netflix’s Sweet Magnolias, many fans are now convinced that he may be joining season 2 of Amazon Prime’s hit series Off Campus as Jake. Sweet Magnolias showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson exclusively confirmed to Us Weekly that Rowland, who portrays Tyler “Ty” […]

His absence was explained by Ty — who is Maddie Townsend’s (JoAnna Garcia Swisher) eldest son — going on tour with bandmate Olivia (Tommi Rose). He even missed girlfriend Annie’s (Anneliese Judge) graduation, which led her to break up with him via text.

When season 5 premiered on June 11, fans were surprised that Ty wasn’t present at all. However, he was on the minds of viewers after Annie received a “miss you” text out of the blue.

Showrunner Sheryl J. Anderson told Deadline this month that the text and missed FaceTime message from Ty could spell a return for Rowland’s character down the line.

“We’ll have to wait and see, won’t we?,” Anderson teased.

Anderson added, “He’s still out there trying to figure out what happens next, she’s still in Serenity trying to figure out what happens next. And again, open doors we hope will lead to new information, different resolutions. Love isn’t cut and dry. You don’t just wake up one morning and say, I don’t love this person anymore, and move on. It takes time.”

Only time will tell if Rowland returned to Sweet Magnolias for season 6, but for now he’s focused on his new projects and life as a father of two.

Carson announced in October 2025 that his wife, Maris Rowland, gave birth to their second baby, a son named Asa. The couple, who tied the knot in 2021, also share 2-year-old daughter Eden.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s famous family includes more than her children.

The Oscar winner is the daughter of Hollywood royalty Blythe Danner and Bruce Paltrow. Gwyneth also has a brother named Jake Paltrow, who also followed in their parents’ famous footsteps.

Gwyneth married Coldplay singer Chris Martin in 2003. The pair welcomed daughter Apple and son Moses in May 2004 and April 2006, respectively. The actress and Martin split in 2014 after more than a decade of marriage.

Amid her divorce from Martin, Gwyneth moved on with Brad Falchuk. The duo wed in 2018. The couple have a blended family as Falchuk is stepfather to Apple and Moses while Gwyneth is stepmother to the producer’s daughter Isabella and son Brody, whom he shares with ex-wife Suzanne Bukinik.

The upcoming Supergirl film is going to be much more of a cosmic adventure than Superman (2025), with the Woman of Steel traveling the stars to help her faithful pooch, Krypto. That means we can look forward to seeing many wild alien designs onscreen, including that of Jason Momoa’s Lobo. Supergirl is only the second feature film in James Gunn’s growing DCU, and it looks like it’s going to stretch the boundaries of this cinematic universe further than ever. Recently, though, DC got in trouble for flying Supergirl into a very familiar galaxy far, far away.

With Supergirl about to fly into theaters on June 26, DC has been doing all kinds of things to promote the upcoming film. This includes selling various licensed collectibles, one of which was a metal print of Millie Alcock’s Supergirl surrounded by many of the wild aliens she encountered in the film. It’s a beautiful print, but there was just one problem: the artist included Lexo Sooger, who is the most obscure character in Star Wars. Obscure or not, though, that’s a character owned by Disney, and DC subsequently removed the metal print from their online store for fear of legal action.

Up, Up, And Away (From A Lawsuit)

The promotional art print above is drawn by Bilquis Evely, one of the artists who worked on the Woman of Tomorrow comic that Supergirl’s story is based on. In the print, we can see Alcock’s Woman of Steel surrounded by several wacky alien designs. The one that got DC in trouble, however, is the hunched-over dude, wormy dude behind her with the blinged-out necklace. As it turns out, this is Lexo Sooger, an obscure Star Wars character. How obscure are we talking? He was only featured in the deleted scenes for The Last Jedi, meaning that the vast majority of Star Wars fans have never seen or even heard of this guy.

Once DC realized this artwork featured a Star Wars character, they stopped selling the metal print and removed its page from their online store. How, though, did a character from a galaxy far, far away end up on Supergirl artwork in the first place? It’s not actually the artist’s fault. According to IGN, Evely was sent images of Lexo Sooger for reference when designing this print. While neither she nor DC has publicly commented on this snafu, it seems like whoever sent the reference image is the one to blame.

Somehow, Lex Sooger Returned

However, that unnamed person may have simply made an understandable mistake. You see, one of the weird aliens in Supergirl looks a lot like the aforementioned Star Wars character: gold necklace, white robe, and long neck. It’s possible that whoever provided the reference image really thought Lexo Sooger was the Supergirl character. Or, more pessimistically, it’s possible that the alien in the film was originally a rip-off of Sooger, and the designer thought the Star Wars character was too obscure for anyone to notice.

If that’s the case, they forgot the first rule of online fandoms: somebody always notices. At any rate, what’s done is done. DC stopped selling the print (which has now, hilariously, become a collector’s item), and Disney hasn’t taken any action against either DC or Warner Bros. Supergirl is scheduled to superhero land in theaters on June 26, where we’ll get to see the weird alien who looks just like a forgotten Star Wars character. Here’s hoping that Millie Alcock takes one look at him before staring right into the camera and uttering those four immortal words every fan wants to hear: “somehow, Lex Sooger returned.”
