A retired police sergeant from Phoenix, Arizona — just a two-hour drive from where Nancy Guthrie lives in Tucson — says there are plenty of fresh clues to dissect in the newly-released images from her Nest doorbell camera.

“Overall, it’s a huge break in the case,” Troy Hillman, a retired cold case homicide sergeant with Phoenix Police Department, exclusively tells Us Weekly as the search for 84-year-old Guthrie continues.

The FBI has released six black-and-white photos and three video clips showing a potential subject involved, who was wearing a mask, black gloves and a backpack when approaching Guthrie’s residence on the night of her disappearance.

“You’ve got a lot of clues just baked in these, what seems to be a short amount of video,” Hillman notes to Us. “You’ve got the ski mask, you’ve got the eyebrows are distinctive. You’ve got what appears to be a mustache. You’ve got a height, a weight, they can guesstimate.”

“They can kind of get biometrics on the facial features,” he points out. “There’s just a ton of information, the backpack, the way he wore his gun, what type of holster it is, what type of gun it was. The type of gloves he had on.”

Hillman spoke to Us hours before news broke on Wednesday, February 11, that FBI agents recovered a black glove from a roadside about one and a half miles away from Guthrie’s house, as first reported by The New York Post.

Authorities believe that Nancy, who is the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie, was taken from her $1 million home against her will after being dropped off at her home on the evening of January 31. She was reported missing on the afternoon of February 1 after she did not show up for virtual church services with a friend.

Savannah, 54, has pleaded for her mother’s safe return alongside her siblings, Annie Guthrie and Camron Guthrie, imploring anyone with information to come forward.

Meanwhile, the FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the recovery of Nancy.

A former special agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is sharing her assessment after investigators revealed new surveillance photos of a potential suspect in Nancy Guthrie’s ongoing disappearance. “A couple of things that stand out to me [are] you don’t see a vehicle in the background,” Tracy Walder, also a former CIA officer, […]

A man was detained in connection with the case on Tuesday, February 10, but he was released by police soon after, stating that he had no knowledge of Nancy’s disappearance while vehemently maintaining his innocence.

Hillman told Us that authorities are likely hopeful that with the public’s help, they will discover another lead in the case. The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has received nearly 18,000 calls to its tip line since February 1, and 4,000 calls in the last 24 hours, according to a new update on Wednesday, February 11.

“You can kind of assess all those things [in the footage] and then begin to kind of put those out and then you’re gonna get input from the community,” the Chasing Down the Zombie Hunter author shared. “Someone’s gonna say, ‘Oh, I know that guy’ or ‘Joe wears that particular jacket, and he fits the make and description of that particular person.’ So, it’s just a huge, huge break.”

“It doesn’t mean it’s solved,” Hillman clarified. “It doesn’t mean Nancy’s home safe, but it means it’s a break in the case.”

Editor’s Note: This article contains spoilers for Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Episode 6, “Come, Let’s Away.”This week’s episode of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy sends our cadets on their first official away mission, and unfortunately for Holly Hunter‘s Captain Ake, things go terribly, horribly wrong when her cadets are intercepted by a terrifying race of cannibalistic aliens. With her cadets held hostage on the remains of a fallen starship, Nahla is forced to call on her biggest nemesis, Nus Braka (Paul Giamatti), if she wants to get them back alive. Unfortunately, making a deal with the devil never really works out, and the cadets suffer a serious loss as one of their War College comrades is killed, SAM (Kerrice Brooks) is left glitching, and Tarima (Zoe Steiner) falls into a coma after saving her friends.

I recently sat down with Hunter and Giamatti to dig into this tense and devastating episode of Starfleet Academy. During our conversation, Hunter spoke about how she embodies Nahla and what needed to happen in this episode to leave her truly betrayed by the end. Giamatti also spoke about how easy it was to have Hunter as a scene partner, before they both spoke about the simmering tension of filming this episode’s intense one-on-one sequences. Finally, the duo teased what to expect from their next showdown later this season. You can read our full conversation below or watch it in the player above.

COLLIDER: Holly, I have to start off by saying Nahla has instantly become one of my favorite Star Cadet captains in the franchise, and I love the choices that you make with her physicality, like flopping into the chair to stop Braka from taking it, or sitting on tables and flopping down in the elevator. When you were establishing the character, what about her lent itself to that sort of movement for you?

HOLLY HUNTER: That was something that kind of organically happened when I read it. I was thinking about a physicality that I wanted to explore with her. Then, when I got to the set, wow, they just invited it for me. And the more sets that I was introduced to, the more my mind opened to the possibilities of going over the back of a couch. I mean, it just became like, “Ooh,” like a new world opened up for me that I found really enticing. I was really kind of turned on by the whole idea of being somebody who lived like that, and then it just manifested.

Holly Hunter and Paul Giamatti Break Down Their “Odd Attraction” in That Tense Nus vs. Nahla Scene

I love that so much. For both of you, your characters have this very intense and magnetic antagonistic chemistry, and in Episode 6, Nahla has to ask for his help at a great cost to herself. What was it like to turn the tables on that dynamic and add another layer to that relationship and that palpable hatred?

PAUL GIAMATTI: Exciting. Exciting that the whole thing takes a turn there. And it was a very well-written scene. I think they accomplished it really well on the page in a way that was kind of easy to begin to play out. But she discovered this great thing in that scene, which is the moment when she comes back, and she starts to kind of hit me to try to get me to comply, which I remember thinking, “This is brilliant because this is really going to fool people into thinking that I’m going to play along.” I thought, “What a brilliant, interesting choice to find.” But the script had that room where you could find all kinds of interesting things in it, like that.

HUNTER: I also think that it was really important so that I would really, truly, truly, truly be double-crossed.

GIAMATTI: Yes, and it was a brilliant way of doing it.

HUNTER: That Nahla would really take the freaking fall. Not kind of halfway, “Oh, well, I suspected it.” No, I mean to really, hook, line, and sinker, be devastated.

GIAMATTI: To almost sell it in a comedic moment, too, was kind of brilliant because then it’s just like, oof! So when the turnaround comes, it’s even more brutal. Yeah, it was great.

Absolutely. When working with these very intense one-on-ones, can you each recall something, like having her in his face, that each of you did that surprised you and unlocked another layer of your performance?

GIAMATTI: I kept being surprised at how much I wanted to get close to her, kind of get right up on her, and I kept thinking, “Why am I doing this? Why am I getting so strangely like…?” And at that point, there were certain shots that we did, I don’t think it’s in it, where I was almost kind of resting my head on her, and it was like, “What am I doing?” It was interesting because I thought, “What does he really want out of this?” It was odd.

HUNTER: Well, I always thought that maybe I was going to kiss him. I thought there might be a kiss, and I thought, “I cannot betray my crew.” Because it was so bizarre! It was so bizarre. It came out of nowhere.

GIAMATTI: There was an odd kind of attraction.

HUNTER: I was like, “Wow, why didn’t I obey that? I wish I had.” That would have been really horrible to obey it.

GIAMATTI: Interesting.

HUNTER: I had terrible conflicts.

GIAMATTI: Yeah. Very strange. There was a lot of that stuff. The physical thing where I kept wanting to get on her was weird. I was like, “Why am I doing this?” It was interesting.

Well, I mean, love and hate are two sides of the same coin, so that chemistry is very there.

Paul Giamatti Teases a “Very Grand Gesture” Ahead of His Final ‘Starfleet Academy’ Face-Off With Holly Hunter

What do you think has changed for Nahla in the 100 years since she lost her son that makes her willing to make such a huge sacrifice for Caleb and the rest of the kids now, that she couldn’t do 100 years ago?

GIAMATTI: Wow.

HUNTER: Well, I think she makes a mistake that she can’t live with. The Federation is a severe outfit at the beginning of this show. At the beginning of Starfleet Academy, they are still recovering from The Burn and from some of the restrictions that they instilled after The Burn. But nevertheless, I think Nahla really takes some of those steps that she was responsible for when she quits. And I think that child, she feels compelled to make that right, as mysterious as that is to search the galaxy for a person who is orphaned, possibly. I love the mysticalness of that, and I love that there was something deeply mysterious about that search. We all make mistakes. I don’t know.

I love that. At the end of this episode, Braka gets away again, but now he’s got a huge, huge price on his head. Can you guys tease what we can look forward to from your next face-off?

GIAMATTI: I come back with a big move at the end, towards the end. I do come back.

HUNTER: A grand gesture.

GIAMATTI: Yeah, with a very grand gesture at the end.

HUNTER: Yeah. And that’s all we could possibly say.

GIAMATTI: That’s all we can possibly say.

Starfleet Academy is available to stream on Paramount+. Stay tuned at Collider for more.

The Masked Singer paid tribute to former contestant James Van Der Beek after his death at age 48.

“In loving memory of our Griffin James Van Der Beek. March 8th 1977 – February 11, 2026,” a graphic read in the opening moments of the Fox show’s Wednesday, February 11, episode.

James’ wife, Kimberly Van Der Beek, confirmed the actor’s death earlier on Wednesday after a long battle with colorectal cancer. “Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning. He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace,” Kimberly wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of James. “There is much to share regarding his wishes, love for humanity and the sacredness of time. Those days will come. For now we ask for peaceful privacy as we grieve our loving husband, father, son, brother, and friend.”

James announced he was battling stage 3 cancer in November 2024 after being diagnosed with the condition the previous year. Despite his health struggles, he appeared as the part-eagle-part-lion amalgamation Griffin on season 13 of The Masked Singer, making it six episodes before he was uncovered by the judges.

“You know, I have a big appreciation for country music, or at least I’m starting to,” James told the crowd in a video package before his elimination in March 2025. “See, after so many years in the spotlight, I moved my family to the country. A place where we could live quietly in nature. The kind of childhood I always dreamed of providing for my kids, and it’s been exactly what my family and I needed.”

He then shared insight into his health journey, hinting that he received some “news that changed everything.”

“It’s been a really tough year. But fortunately, we’ve been able to face this challenge together in our home,” he continued.  I would not have gotten through this without them. They make me smile on all the tough days and they’re strong for me when I sometimes can’t be.”

Following his final performance — to “I Had Some Help” by Post Malone and Morgan Wallen — James was joined on stage with Kimberly and their six children: Olivia, Joshua, Annabell, Emilia, Gwendolyn and Jeremiah.

Speaking to People in an exit interview after he was identified, James said that participating in the musical reality series helped take his mind off the heavier aspects of his life.

“What was cool is, the audience didn’t know,” he told the outlet at the time. “So as much as I was dealing with whatever I was dealing with in my trailer and with the world, it was this great escape to be able to put on this mask and just connect with that audience and not have cancer be a part of it at all.”

He added that it had been a “very, very, long time” since he had sung publicly, but that he would “audition all the time for summer stock” as a kid.

“I’d go to open calls that I found in Backstage during my spring break in high school,” he recalled. “That’s what I did. But I never really booked anything that way — I did one musical when I was 17, but I just kind of sang with the ensemble.”

The cast of Dawson’s Creek shared their public support for James Van Der Beek’s cancer battle before his death. “Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning. He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace,” James’ wife, Kimberly Van Der Beek, wrote via Instagram in February 2026. “There is much […]

Those auditions came to a halt after he was cast as Dawson Leery on The WB’s Dawson’s Creek, a show that ran for six seasons from 1998 to 2003. James costarred alongside Katie Holmes, Joshua Jackson, Michelle Williams on the series, which followed the adolescent adventures of a group of teens living in small town Massachusetts.

Dawson’s Creek catapulted James to fame on the small — and big — screen, but the actor told People that he was still hoping to take the stage in the future after his success on The Masked Singer.

“I would love to do Broadway,” he shared. “It would be a dream come true.”

Family vacations are always tough to plan and execute for a number of reasons. The kids swear they went to the bathroom at the last rest stop, only to complain that they have to go again five minutes after you get back on the road. The McDonald’s off the side of the highway are disproportionately expensive, and they always forget your ranch. And sometimes, just sometimes, the destination you plan to spend your company-allotted two weeks of PTO at is the home of a bunch of locals who are fast approaching the 200-year anniversary of what can only be described as a cannibal massacre.

2024’s Get Away focuses entirely on that third scenario, and it has so much fun pushing you into hostile territory that you’ll find no shortage of weird rituals and the kind of splatty, third-act violence any slasher comedy fan will appreciate. Written by Nick Frost of Shaun of the Dead in his first solo writing effort, Get Away boasts exactly the kind of irreverent humor you’d expect, specifically the kind that thrives on a suspicious level of nonchalance once things start to spiral out of control.

“We Really Need This”

Get Away starts out simply enough, but continually pushes itself into increasingly uncomfortable territory as it plays out. We’re introduced to Richard (Nick Frost) and his wife Susan (Aisling Bea), along with their son and daughter, Sam (Sebastian Croft) and Jessie (Maisie Ayres). The echoing sentiment we hear from Susan as the family travels to the Swedish island of Svalta is that she really needs this. The implication is clear. She and Richard have been grinding all year to support their family, and this is the only two-week window they have to get some genuine rest and relaxation before heading straight back into the rat race.

The primary reason they’ve chosen to travel to Svalta is to witness a play put on by the locals that commemorates the 200th anniversary of a British quarantine. That quarantine resulted in a small group of survivors who still live on the island today, largely because their ancestors resorted to cannibalism when their food supply dwindled and was never replenished. Whether the family has any direct connection to the islanders isn’t made clear, but it still feels like a strange place to spend your only family vacation.

Almost immediately upon arrival, the family is met with anger, hostility, and resentment, as if they’re intruding on something deeply personal. Dead animals are left at their bed and breakfast doorstep, it appears someone has been rummaging through their belongings while they’re out exploring, and Jessie begins to suspect there are hidden mirror doorways in the house, implying someone may be watching her while she sleeps.

Get Away hits its boiling point during the ceremony the family traveled to see, when it becomes clear that not everything on the island is what it seems. After a series of traumatizing incidents that are best left undescribed so you can experience them firsthand, the family realizes they’re grossly outnumbered by the locals and decides to reclaim their dignity through whatever means necessary before leaving the island for good.

Predictable Until It’s Not

During its first and second acts, Get Away plays out like a classic folk horror setup. A group of outsiders arrives somewhere they clearly shouldn’t be, and the people who already live there participate in increasingly bizarre rituals that would make most people leave before they’re sacrificed to some sort of blood demon. Get Away subverts those expectations through Richard and Susan’s family, because they seem oddly at peace with everything happening around them.

They know they aren’t welcome on the island of Svalta, but they don’t care. This is their vacation. This is their only chance to relax and spend time together before heading back to their everyday lives, and they refuse to let a bunch of strange locals ruin it. Most of the humor in Get Away comes from this tonal clash, and Nick Frost’s friendly, straight-faced approach to what most people would consider a nightmare scenario is oddly wholesome.

If you start to feel restless during what appears to be a lack of conflict, all you have to do is wait for the third act, when things go completely off the rails and the film turns into a violent battle of wills. It all builds toward one of the most out-of-pocket twist endings you’ve probably seen in a hot minute.

Get Away is a satisfying watch if you’re already a fan of Nick Frost’s screen presence and delivery, and his performance is further elevated by Aisling Bea, Sebastian Croft, and Maisie Ayres. On screen, they play the perfect English family trying to charm their way out of an insane situation, while also hinting that they’re not to be underestimated. Sometimes the most polite people are exactly the ones you don’t want to mess with.

As of this writing, Get Away is streaming for free on Tubi.

Recently, it was announced that HBO will adapt 2023’s Game of the Year, Baldur’s Gate 3. So far, it has been confirmed that Craig Mazin was tapped as showrunner and teased what the series would be about. While an official cast list has yet to be announced, another big name has been added to the team, not in television, but in the Dungeons & Dragons space.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is a role-playing video game developed by Larian Studios, which takes place in the Dungeons & Dragons setting called the Forgotten Realms. After escaping a Mind Flayer ship, you and your companions attempt to find a solution to remove a parasitic tadpole before you turn into a Mind Flayer yourself. As you attempt to make your way to Baldur’s Gate, secrets and backstories are revealed, as well as uncovering a conspiracy that’s connected to a dangerous cult. What made Baldur’s Gate 3 beloved by many was the different outcomes it offered based on your actions and dialogue choices, the performance of its cast, how some of the game’s moments became internet memes, and how it’s reminiscent of playing actual D&D.

While Mazin has proven he can produce a good video game adaptation, as seen in The Last of Us, Baldur’s Gate 3 is different in terms of gameplay and storytelling, so it makes sense to tap someone with experience in the genre. According to Popverse, Chris Perkins, the former Head of Story at Wizards of the Coast and now part of Critical Role’s Darrington Press, has been tapped as a consultant. Perkins worked with Wizards of the Coast back in 1997 and was heavily involved with Dungeons & Dragons, serving as a senior producer, story manager, Lead story designer for 2016’s Curse of Strahd, and more. Knowing that Hasbro is also involved in the adaptation, it’s safe to say that this adaptation is in good hands, for now.

Will Larian Studios Also Be Involved With HBO’s ‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Series?

HBO’s Baldur’s Gate 3 series is set to take place after the events of the 2023 video game. However, due to the multiple endings that Baldur’s Gate 3 has, it’s unknown which ending it’s going to follow, if any at all. It’s a similar issue that Fallout Season 2 had to overcome in how it would address the many endings of New Vegas. Mazin has expressed his passion for Baldur’s Gate 3, stating he has put “nearly 1,000 hours” into the game and praising Larian Studios’ CEO, Swen Vincke, and his team for bringing this story to life.

Unfortunately, Larian Studios isn’t involved in the upcoming series. Vincke released a statement on social media, saying he’s eager to see which direction Craig and his team will take, both creatively and narratively. But when asked if any of Larian’s writers were going to consult the show, he replied with:

“Not to my knowledge. But Craig did reach out to ask if he could come over to the studio to speak with us. From the conversation we had, I think he truly is a big fan, which gives me hope.”

This was also confirmed by The Game Awards host, Geoff Keighley, who revealed on social media that Larian Studios has “no involvement” in the series.

HBO’s adaptation of Baldur’s Gate 3 has yet to announce a release date. Follow Collider to stay up to date with the latest updates.

34 years ago, Kevin Costner starred in this newly trending must-watch thriller, one of the movies that contributed to his prominence. As fans know, Costner has been in the industry since the 70s, appearing in a wide range of films across genres after making his film debut in the 1981 indie project Sizzle Beach, U.S.A. Of late, many recognize him from Taylor Sheridan’s acclaimed TV series Yellowstone, which ran from June 20, 2018, to December 15, 2024. Costner, who also executive-produced, portrayed John Dutton in the Western drama, marking the first regular TV series role of his career.

Speaking of the brilliant titles that contributed to Costner’s prominence, we have 1987’s The Untouchables, the sports comedy Bull Durham, released the following year, Field of Dreams (1989), and the 1992 romantic thriller The Bodyguard, which is making a surprise comeback on streaming. Directed by Mick Jackson and written by Lawrence Kasdan, The Bodyguard was the second-highest-grossing film of 1992, despite receiving mostly unfavorable reviews from critics. It also starred Whitney Houston in her movie acting debut, Gary Kemp, Bill Cobbs, Ralph Waite, Tomas Arana, Mike Starr, DeVaughn Nixon, and Gerry Bamman.

In the U.S., The Bodyguard surfaced on MGM+ charts a few hours ago, marking the first time in months since the cult classic has appeared on streaming charts. The romantic thriller is the tenth most-watched title on the streamer as of this writing, right behind Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. Meanwhile, leading the list is Kaley Cuoco and Sam Claflin’s miniseries Vanished. Additionally, The Bodyguard is trending on the iTunes chart in Lebanon.

What Is ‘The Bodyguard’ About?

In The Bodyguard, Costner portrays Frank Farmer, a former Secret Service agent who served on the Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan presidential details. Farmer is also a professional bodyguard whom Bill Devaney (Cobbs) engages when best-selling pop diva Rachel Marron (Houston) is threatened by an obsessive, dangerous stalker. Initially resented and treated with disdain for his hard-nosed security procedures, Farmer soon becomes an integral part of Rachel’s inner circle, and as they spend more time together, the client and protector grow closer. The Bodyguard grossed $411 million worldwide but holds a critics’ rating of 38% on Rotten Tomatoes and received multiple Golden Raspberry Awards nominations, including for Worst Picture. Still, that didn’t stop the classic drama from developing a cult following over time.

The Bodyguard streams on MGM+. Stick with Collider for more information.
