The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has released two ransom notes sent to local and national news outlets in connection with the disappearance of Today show host Savannah Guthrie‘s mother, Nancy Guthrie.

“These communications reveal distinctive patterns of word choice, syntax, and phraseology that reflect the writer’s unique linguistic style,” read a press release shared via X on Friday, July 31. “They also provide valuable insight into the person’s mindset, motives and the evolution of their tone over time.”

The department noted that they believe the notes’ “distinctive linguistic characteristics may be recognizable to someone who knows or has interacted with the notes’ writer. A friend, family member, coworker, classmate, or acquaintance may recognize these patterns of expression and possess information that could help identify the individual responsible.”

The first note — which was sent to KOLD-TV 13 News, a local CBS affiliate in Tucson, Arizona, on February 2, one day after Nancy, 84, was reported missing — is addressed to Savannah, 54.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos is weighing in on the latest ransom notes making headlines in the ongoing search for Today coanchor Savannah Guthrie’s mom, Nancy Guthrie. “I think the FBI has done a number of arrests for false or fake ransom notes,” Nanos shared during a Friday, June 26, appearance on Arizona radio station […]

“We have your mother, Nancy. She is safe but scared,” the note read. “She will be held for ransom, and once payment is received, she will be released unharmed. We will be holding her for a maximum of 7 days.”

The alleged kidnappers instructed Savannah to send “Bitcoin in the amount of $4 million USD before 5 p.m. on Thursday, [February 5].”

“If payment is not received, the ransom will be increased to $6 million USD, which will need to be paid by 5 p.m. on Monday, [February 9],” the note continued. “Once payment is received to the Bitcoin address below, she will be released within 12 hours of deposit to a safe drop-off location back in Tucson.”

The note warned that Nancy would be “killed” if payment was not received by the second deadline.

“Your mother is aware of this, and her life is in your hands. It is in the best interest of everyone to have this completed as soon as possible. You will not be able to contact me from here on out, there will be no negotiation. Do not play games, law enforcement will not be able to help you,” the note concluded.

Today show host Savannah Guthrie got emotional while pleading with viewers on Tuesday, June 23, after reports emerged that her missing mom, Nancy Guthrie, may be dead. “I love you guys, and I love this place, and this is unusual and unprecedented, to say the least, to be sitting here.” Savannah, 54, told her cohosts […]

The second ransom note was sent to KOLD on February 6 and addressed to the “Guthrie Family.”

“We did not fully grasp the seriousness of her physical condition,” the note read. “We never intended to hurt her, that was not our intention. She perished shortly after she was taken. We believe it was heart-related. She is buried in nature now. Nothing you could have done could have changed the outcome. We want your family to know this and hope you all can find peace. We are truly sorry.”

In addition to releasing the notes, the PCSD noted in Friday’s press release that they, along with the FBI, have “recovered videos from [Nancy’s] residence showing an unidentified male who knows what happened” to the Guthrie family matriarch.

“Two videos recovered from Nancy’s doorbell camera may be from two separate days,” the statement continued. “These videos are critical to our understanding of the unidentified male’s behaviors and choices. They indicate he took steps to prepare for the event on the night of January 31 to February 1.”

The department has asked the public for “continued assistance” in the search for Nancy.

It has been one blow after another for Sid Wilson, whose turbulent year has taken another dramatic turn following reports that the longtime Slipknot DJ has been pushed out of the band.

The alleged professional split comes roughly four months after reports claimed Wilson and fiancée Kelly Osbourne ended their engagement, adding to what has become a challenging period in both his personal and career life.

Sid Wilson joined Slipknot in 1999 as one of the band’s original members after famously proving he was “crazy” enough to earn a place in the lineup.

Sid Wilson’s long tenure with Slipknot has reportedly come to an abrupt end after claims emerged that the musician is no longer part of the heavy metal band he helped build from the ground up.

According to sources, Wilson was informed late Friday that he had been permanently removed as the group’s DJ and keyboardist. While the reason behind the decision remains unclear, the reported exit marks the end of a run that began in 1999, when Wilson joined as one of Slipknot’s nine original members.

The reported departure also makes Wilson the latest founding member to leave the band, following the exits of Craig Jones and Chris Fehn, as well as the deaths of Joey Jordison and Paul Gray. At the time of publication, neither Wilson nor Slipknot had publicly addressed the reported split, per TMZ.

A Wild First Impression That Changed Everything

Long before reports of his departure surfaced, Wilson had become one of Slipknot’s defining members through an unforgettable first impression. Although he had already been rehearsing with the band and developing ideas, Wilson once admitted that joining the group was never simply a formality.

The musician recalled wanting to see Slipknot perform live before committing, despite repeatedly hearing how wild the band was on stage. According to Wilson, the members kept insisting they were “crazy,” but he believed he was just as fearless and wanted the chance to prove it.

That opportunity arrived during one of the band’s early performances, setting the stage for a moment that would ultimately change Wilson’s future with Slipknot.

Sid Wilson’s Audition Became Slipknot Legend

Wilson recalled sensing percussionist Shawn “Clown” Crahan heading straight toward him during a chaotic performance of “Tattered And Torn.”

Rather than backing away, the DJ rushed into the crowd, climbed over fans, and met Crahan face-to-face before grabbing him and repeatedly headbutting him.

The shocking exchange ended with Crahan reportedly pushing Wilson away before declaring, “I don’t give a shit what anybody says, that guy’s in the band.”

The moment instantly convinced the group that Wilson fit the intensity and unpredictability that defined Slipknot’s identity, according to NME.

Looking back, the story became one of the band’s most memorable origin tales, illustrating just how unconventional Wilson’s path into Slipknot really was.

The Band’s Drummers Left Lasting Impressions

Years after earning his place in Slipknot, Wilson reflected on the musicians who helped shape the band’s sound, reserving especially high praise for late founding drummer Joey Jordison.

The DJ described Jordison as “the best that ever did it,” recalling how respected the drummer was among fellow musicians and how effortlessly he could master virtually any song.

Wilson also remembered a festival performance where Jordison stepped in for Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich, saying the late musician was able to learn and perform the band’s set with remarkable ease.

As reported by VICE, Wilson believed Jordison constantly pushed himself because he always felt he had something to prove, a mindset that made him one of the greatest drummers he had ever seen.

The praise continued for current drummer Eloy Casagrande, whom Wilson described as “a fresh breath of air” for Slipknot, adding that the band had not truly felt like it was starting a new chapter until Casagrande arrived.

Notably, Wilson did not mention former drummer Jay Weinberg while reflecting on the group’s history, despite Weinberg spending nearly a decade with the band before his unexpected departure.

Sid Wilson And Kelly Osbourne Faced Personal Heartbreak Before Latest Professional Setback

Months before reports emerged that Wilson had been removed from Slipknot, the musician was also dealing with changes in his personal life.

Reports in March claimed that Kelly Osbourne and Wilson had quietly ended their engagement after facing relationship challenges following the death of Ozzy Osbourne. According to reports, the couple, who share a son, reportedly tried to make the relationship work but ultimately chose to separate.

Sources also claimed Osbourne had been navigating an especially difficult period while grieving the loss of her father, even as concerns about her dramatic weight loss continued to draw public attention, Page Six reported.

Although neither development has been publicly linked, the reported breakup and now the end of Wilson’s long run with Slipknot mark two major turning points within months of each other.

After losing both a longtime relationship and a place in the band that helped define a career, what comes next for Sid Wilson?

After years of delays, rewrites, and uncertainty surrounding Marvel Studios’ long troubled Blade reboot, Mahershala Ali has finally addressed the project’s cancellation in his most candid comments yet.

Speaking with GQ while promoting his new film Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother, Ali made it clear that he’s no longer dwelling on the failed Marvel project and has found peace with how everything unfolded.

“If they wanted to do it, we would’ve done it,” Ali told GQ. “So I have to move on, and I have moved on.”

The Oscar winner was first announced as Marvel’s new Blade during San Diego Comic Con in 2019, a reveal that instantly became one of the MCU’s biggest casting announcements. However, after multiple directors departed, several writers took over the screenplay, and the film was repeatedly delayed, Marvel ultimately shelved the project. Earlier this month, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige admitted he felt “like a gigantic loser and a failure” that the film never came together.

Despite the disappointment, Ali says the experience wasn’t a complete loss.

“The best way I can answer this question is, when I look at what is for me, is it was either this or that and I’ll take this. No offense to them,” Ali explained. “I’ve been doing this professionally for pushing 30 years now, and one thing I’ve learned is that what is for you is for you and what is not is not.”

Mahershala Ali Blade Concept

Instead of starring as Marvel’s vampire hunter, Ali reunited with former Blade director Bassam Tariq to create the original action drama Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother. The actor believes the film ultimately became a more rewarding creative experience than the Marvel reboot could have been.

“When I look at this and Blade, I couldn’t have done both,” Ali said. “The reason this even exists is because that project fell apart… I was able to use those skills that I had been working on for over a year training for Blade. In that way, I feel creatively redeemed on some level.”

Ali also acknowledged that the first teaser for the new film intentionally included him wielding a sword, something many fans viewed as a nod to the character they never got to see him play.

“I’m glad we were able to satisfy that and kind of move on,” he said, adding that while audiences may have expected a big budget superhero spectacle, the smaller scale project allowed them to tell a much deeper and more personal story.

As for whether fans should continue asking him about Marvel’s canceled reboot, Ali made his position perfectly clear.

“I’m good,” he said with a laugh. “Again, you had me under contract, they have billions of dollars, if they wanted to do the movie, we would’ve done the movie. So we’re not doing the movie… I feel ready to move on from the Blade questions. Those questions are for them. They didn’t want to do it, so they should answer that question.”

For many Marvel fans, Ali’s comments offer long awaited closure on one of the MCU’s most infamous canceled projects. While his version of Blade never made it to the big screen, the actor has made it clear he’s looking ahead, not back.

French horror films like Irréversible, Inside, High Tension, and Frontier(s), etc., are famous for their early surrealist shockers, stylish psychological thrillers, and the intense, graphic movement known as New French Extremity. This Pascal Laugier’s 2008 film, in spirit, falls right alongside those titles and is returning in separate standard-edition 4K UHD and Blu-ray releases in the UK right before Halloween. And while it’s a dedicated UK release, 4K Ultra HD Blu-rays are region-free and compatible with all 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray players.

There are spooky films, and then there are deeply disturbing, psychological horror films from this transgressing sub-genre, so if you haven’t watched it before, consider this a heads-up that it’s not nearly as festive as your next-door Michael Myers or Fargo Season 5-ish dark comedy scare around Halloween. This is intense and goes far beyond.

The film’s title is Martyrs, and it is now available for pre-order (it’ll be available starting October 19, 2026). The premise follows Lucie (Mylène Jampanoï), a traumatized young woman seeking revenge on her childhood torturers, and her friend Anna (Morjana Alaoui), who uncovers a secret society torturing victims to glimpse the afterlife, and it simply doesn’t get more intense than that. During an interview, Laugier once went on to share his sentiments about Martyrs in the following words:

“It is almost a work of prospective fiction that shows a dying world, almost like a pre-apocalypse. It’s a world where evil triumphed a long time ago, where consciences have died out under the reign of money and where people spend their time hurting one another. It’s a metaphor, of course, but the film describes things that are not that far from what we’re experiencing today.”

This Isn’t the First Time ‘Martyrs’ Has Become Available in This Restored Format

Pascal Laugier’s 2008 film is returning in 4K UHD and Blu-ray through Eureka Entertainment’s Masters of Cinema, and it’s not the restoration’s first release. Eureka’s now-discontinued limited dual-format edition originally debuted in October 2025, but now, a year later, this repacking comes without the collector packaging, uses a 4K restoration from the original camera negative with Dolby Vision/HDR, original French 5.1 and stereo audio, and newly revised English subtitles.

But it’s not just that. There is extra footage that includes but isn’t limited to the production from several useful angles, including Mylène Jampanoï’s performance, Benoît Lestang’s effects, the film’s place in New French Extremity, its body-horror language, Laugier’s intentions about what he wanted the film to be like, and the feature-length making-of documentary Organic Chronicles, which is an archival, behind-the-scenes take directed by Matthieu Desport about the making of Martyrs.

Martyrs is now available for pre-order. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Spanish actress Ester Expósito has pushed back against growing speculation surrounding her private life and rumored connection to France and Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé. The 26-year-old also warned that she may take legal action against those spreading damaging claims.

The gossip about the pair being potentially involved with each other has persisted despite neither celebrity commenting on their relationship status.

Ester Expósito has broken her silence after weeks of online speculation about her personal life and her rumored relationship with Kylian Mbappé. Without naming any specific reports, the “Elite” actress accused social media users and some outlets of spreading “false and defamatory” claims that have damaged her reputation.

In a strongly worded statement, Expósito said the stories were fabricated to “distort a story between two people” and attack her dignity. She warned that she is now prepared to pursue legal action against anyone responsible for publishing or amplifying defamatory content.

Speculation about the status of their relationship intensified after the World Cup, with some reports claiming the pair had hit a rough patch. However, Expósito made it clear that freedom of expression does not give anyone the right to spread baseless accusations.

Mbappé And Expósito Have Never Confirmed Romance

3

Rumors surrounding Mbappé and Expósito first gained traction in March after the pair were reportedly spotted together during a weekend in Paris. Spanish media claimed they enjoyed dinner overlooking the Eiffel Tower before spending the evening at a nightclub. They were later photographed arriving in Madrid on Mbappé’s private jet.

The reported Paris getaway wasn’t the only sighting that caught fans’ attention, however. According to various outlets, the pair had allegedly met weeks earlier for a private dinner at Tatel Madrid shortly after Valentine’s Day. Neither Mbappé nor Expósito has addressed the reports, and neither has ever confirmed they are romantically involved.

Kylian Mbappé And Ester Expósito Stepped Out Together After World Cup

Mbappé and Expósito appeared to take their rumored romance into more public territory after the 2026 World Cup. The pair were spotted dining at La Girafe in Paris before shopping together along Avenue Montaigne days later.

Their outings followed reported time together in Miami and earlier sightings on a yacht in Ibiza. Expósito was also seen supporting Mbappé during the tournament, while the Real Madrid star briefly posted an image of her wearing his France jersey and captain’s armband before deleting it.

Despite the radio silence pertaining to their relationship status, their latest outings suggest the famously private pair may be becoming more comfortable being seen together.

Inside Ester Expósito’s Dating History

Long before she was linked to Mbappé, Expósito dated Uruguayan actor Nico Furtado for about two years before the pair quietly split in 2023, with reports attributing the breakup to demanding work schedules that kept them apart. Neither actor publicly addressed the end of their relationship.

Before Furtado, Expósito was romantically involved with Mexican actor Alejandro Speitzer after the two met while filming “Someone Has to Die.” Their relationship became public through social media in 2020 but reportedly ended the following year without either confirming the split. She also previously dated her “Elite” co-star Álvaro Rico, whom she met on the Netflix series that launched her career.

Ester Expósito Has Become One Of Spain’s Biggest Global Stars

Expósito has come a long way since her breakout role as Carla Rosón in Netflix’s “Élite.”

After starring in the hit series for three seasons, the Madrid-born actress expanded into multiple other screen projects, including “Someone Has to Die,” “Veneno,” “Bandidos,” “Lost in the Night,” and “The Talent.”

Away from the screen, Expósito has also established herself as one of Spain’s most recognizable fashion figures. She has worked with luxury brands including Yves Saint Laurent Beauty, Bvlgari, and Dolce & Gabbana, and has been the global ambassador of Desigual since 2025.

Her career continues to gain momentum, with Prime Video’s “Drawn Together” set to debut later this year following her recent International Golden Nymph Award for Most Promising Talent at the Monte-Carlo Television Festival. At the same time, the actress boasts more than 24 million Instagram followers.  Expósito also remains a regular fixture at Paris Fashion Week and other major industry events.

Katy Perry has sparked fireworks with Justin Trudeau.

The “Roar” singer and the former Canadian prime minister were first spotted out to dinner together in Montreal, Canada, in July 2025, just days before Trudeau attended Perry’s Lifetimes Tour stop in the city. A source exclusively told Us Weekly at the time that their outing was “definitely” a date, but it was “casual.”

The couple made their first major public appearance on October 25, 2025, with a date at Crazy Horse Paris for Perry’s 41st birthday. She and Trudeau all but confirmed their relationship by holding hands while walking out of the club.

Perry’s romance with Trudeau comes after her broken engagement to Orlando Bloom in June 2025. The exes share daughter Daisy and had been together since 2016. Meanwhile, Trudeau split from ex-wife Sophie Trudeau in August 2023 after 18 years of marriage. The two share kids Xavier, Ella-Grace and Hadrien.

Two days later, Justin was seen attending Perry’s sold-out concert at Belle Centre in Montreal.

September 2025

An insider exclusively shared an update on the couple on September 15, 2025, telling Us, “They’ve decided to be much more private about it. They are still speaking and are very interested in each other.”

A second insider said the relationship “isn’t serious” because of Perry’s busy tour schedule.

“Katy is taking it day by day but is very open to dating,” the source added.

October 2025

Perry and Justin packed on the PDA with kisses and cuddles while enjoying a yacht trip off the coast of Santa Barbara, California, on October 11, 2025.

Elsewhere at the concert, she hinted that she was in a new relationship when a fan proposed to her.

“You heard I’m single? That’s interesting,” she told the fan. After he got down on one knee and proposed to Perry with a large sign, she responded, “Are you kidding me? Not today! You know, you really should have asked me about 48 hours ago.”

Justin Trudeau is seeing fireworks when it comes to Katy Perry. The former Canadian Prime Minister, 53, was standing nearly front row at Perry’s Wednesday, July 30, Lifetimes Tour sold-out concert at Belle Centre in Montreal, Canada. Per footage circulating online, Trudeau could be seen nodding his head to the music and smiling as Perry, […]

An insider exclusively told Us on October 24, 2025, that Perry is “really into” her romance with Justin.

“She’s very happy,” the source said. “She’s trying to keep it low-key, and they’ve spent a lot of private time together. She’s not looking to publicize this relationship.”

The insider added, “Their friends think they are a good match, but he actually hasn’t met a lot of her friends yet.”

Perry and Justin were filmed holding hands the following night while exiting a cabaret club in Paris. The date night came in celebration of the singer’s 41st birthday.

Justin also seemingly paid tribute to Perry with his Halloween costume: an inflatable shark. While Justin’s son dressed as a surfer with a bloody head for the holiday, the costume appeared to double as an homage to Perry’s Super Bowl 49 performance, which featured two dancers dressed as sharks.

Justin further hinted at the tribute in the caption of his Instagram post, writing, “Ready for Halloween with Hadrien: he’s the surfer, I’m the shark (to his left). We built the costume together — a little father-son Halloween teamwork. 🎃🦈🏄‍♂️.” (The “Left Shark” in Perry’s performance went viral for going rogue with their dance moves and stealing the show.)

December 2025

Perry and Trudeau met with former Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida during a getaway in the country.

“Former Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau came to Japan with his partner, Katy Perry, and had lunch with us,” Kishida wrote via Instagram on December 4. “During my time as Prime Minister, I met Prime Ministers many times, and when I visited Canada, we worked together to strengthen bilateral relations, including formulating the Nikka Action Plan. I am glad that we are continuing this friendship.”

January 2026

While sharing a recap of her holiday season, Perry uploaded a photo of herself leaning to kiss Trudeau beside a body of water. Trudeau rocked a pair of dark sunglasses and a white T-shirt as he gave a smile for the camera. ““Holidaze ♥️,” Perry captioned the Instagram post.

April 2026

Perry shared a sweet photo of her and Trudeau posing together via Instagram. She placed one hand on his chest while looking up and smiling at the former prime minister of Canada.

“Never knew karma could be so rewarding,” she captioned the post.

Trudeau’s son Xavier praised Perry for helping with his music career during an episode of the “Can’t Be Censored” podcast. “When I’m really happy with a song, [I] send it [to her],” he said. “She’s always happy to give me advice or tell me what I should change.”

He added, “She’s super nice. She’s super down to earth. She’s great. I think that my dad’s happy, so that’s important.”

June 2026

A source exclusively told Us in June 2026 that “things between Katy and Justin are very serious.”

“After her split from Orlando, Katy really wasn’t expecting to jump into another relationship anytime soon, but Justin completely caught her by surprise. He came into her life at the right time, and they have developed a really strong connection,” the insider said, sharing that they have been “integrating their lives more and more.”

“Their relationship has deepened over the past several months, and they are about to celebrate their one-year anniversary,” the source said. “They both feel it’s important to blend their families thoughtfully and at a comfortable pace.”

Later that month, Perry and Trudeau made their red carpet debut at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City for the premiere of her new concert movie, Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris.

“Every day is a fantastic journey, and every day is a chance to evolve and to be a better person and do the right thing and to be a model for your community, for your family, for your world,” Perry said during a post-screening Q&A as she reflected on her global Lifetimes Tour in 2025.

“I would say now at the end of 91 shows, I feel like a more grounded person in so many aspects of my life. I am very in love. Actually, that show was after I met the love of my life, and so I felt very anchored by that,” she continued of her November 2025 tour dates in Paris. “I’m a little bit like a rainbow kite — I fly super high. Sometimes I need to be anchored, so to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole now.”

July 2026

As Perry’s Out of Office Tour went on break until the end of August, a source exclusively told Us that she and Trudeau are hoping to put down “roots.”

“She and Justin will finally have time to settle in as a blended family,” the insider shared. “Over the last month, they have been coparenting in Europe, and their exes Sophie and Orlando have been there.”

The source continued, “The idea is to re-stabilize and have some down time in August to figure out the architecture of what their relationship looks like, to lay some roots down and get a proper rhythm. They want to make sure there is a stable system to nurture their kids.”

The insider noted that Trudeau planned to have a “normal life” after he resigned from his role as prime minister of Canada.

“He bought a house, moved back to Montreal and has yet to settle into the home because of his relationship and the new world they live in,” the source said. “Everyone is rooting for them, but they need to settle down a bit, so that’s the plan. Everyone close to them wants them to succeed in their relationship.”

Perry, meanwhile, is “diving right into Canadian culture.”

The pop star is also helping Trudeau’s son Xavier with his music aspirations.

“She’s mentoring him on how to have more pop appeal. He’s been spending time with her and his dad during this leg of the tour,” the insider said.

When thinking about good whodunits, Agatha Christie adaptations often come first to our minds; the clever puzzles, eccentric detectives, and unexpected twists make the narratives so compelling that viewers are glued to their seats. Movies like Clue, Gone Baby Gone, Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes, Gone Girl, and such also prove to be compelling watches. A more contemporary audience is well-versed in Rian Johnson’s Knives Out franchise, which presents a new mystery with each installment, seen through its detective Benoit Blanc’s (Daniel Craig) eyes.

This year, though, brought us a whodunit that will be remembered for its detectives rather than its mystery. Case in point is Hugh Jackman’s The Sheep Detectives, which puts forth a herd solving the case of their shepherd. We follow George Hardy (Jackman), a devoted shepherd who reads cozy murder mysteries to his flock every night. Things take a turn when George is suddenly and mysteriously found dead. While the local authorities quickly write it off as a heart attack, George’s sheep suspect foul play. Putting on their detective wool or caps, the flock then take it upon themselves to find the murderer.

Written by The Last of Us co-creator Craig Mazin and directed by Kyle Balda, The Sheep Detectives adapts Leonie Swann‘s 2005 international best-selling novel, Three Bags Full. The heartfelt story grips its audience as we see the overarching themes of isolation, dealing with darker realities like death and loss, love for an animal, and more. The movie garnered love all around, becoming a commercial success, earning $126 million worldwide on a $75 million budget.

Furthermore, the feature marks the highest-rated Hugh Jackman film, with a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score from critics and a 96% score from fans. Along with Jackman, the whodunit also casts Nicholas Braun as the bumbling local cop, Molly Gordon as George’s long-lost daughter, while the voice cast includes icons like Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Patrick Stewart and more.

‘The Sheep Detectives’ Rise Is a Streaming Darling

But that isn’t all for the movie’s success, as it became even bigger when it hit PVOD and then streaming, dominating charts all around. Now the feature has achieved another milestone; The Sheep Detectives has spent over a month on Prime Video, as per FlixPatrol. It is currently at the 6th spot on Prime’s top 10 list, standing tall among films like Ryan Gosling’s Project Hail Mary, Travis Knight’s Masters of the Universe, two Jason Statham movies, Shelter and A Working Man, and more.

Check out The Sheep Detectives on Prime Video. Stay tuned to Collider for more such updates.

Courtney Clenney accepted a plea deal after fatally stabbing her boyfriend, Christian Obumseli. The OnlyFans model was facing life in prison for stabbing Obumseli back in 2022.

Courtney Clenney Gets Plea Deal After Stabbing Boyfriend

Courtney Clenney accepted a plea deal after stabbing her boyfriend to death inside their condo in Miami, Florida. According to TMZ, prosecutors reached a deal with the accused killer. Her attorney, Frank Prieto, confirmed with the outlet.

The OnlyFans model was facing life in prison after being charged with second-degree murder. However, the details of the plea deal were not available. The Shade Room previously reported that Clenney fatally stabbed 27-year-old Obumseli on April 3, 2022. Neighbors called 911 after overhearing a domestic dispute between the couple.

Clenney Called Obumseli The N-Word

Video footage captured the killer covered in blood as officers from the Miami-Dade Police Department investigated the scene. Furthermore, Clenney, who is white, admitted to stabbing Christian, who was Black, with a knife. Despite her admission and blood-soaked clothes, the now 30-year-old wasn’t arrested until four months after the murder. Clenney was in rehab in Hawaii when she was arrested, per the Miami Herald, and extradited to Florida. The accused killer’s lawyer later claimed self-defense.

Later, audio found on Christian’s phone from months before his death captured Clenney repeatedly calling Christian the n-word and threatening to assault him. In one audio clip, Clenney called Obumseli the n-word multiple times within minutes. She also screamed at him, “man up b*tch” and “shut up and let me slap you, dumb a*s!”

Sure, superhero movies may have truly blown up in the early 2000s, but the last decade and a half have been an incredible collection of years for superhero cinema, too. In 2010, the Marvel Cinematic Universe was finally taking off, and it was three years out from the beginning of the DC Extended Universe with Man of Steel—a big year to kick off the next era of superhero film.

There have been plenty of projects released since then that are amazing, but a few are truly exceptional and have helped define this corner of the industry forever. The fun thing about them—emphasizing the special things about superhero movies in general—is how abundantly different they are, while still, at their heart, being about heroes that are out of this world (sometimes literally).

‘Black Panther’ (2018)

There have been plenty of superhero projects that have become game changers for the space, but few are quite like the one and only Black Panther, directed by Ryan Coogler. This isn’t just a good action/adventure project, but it does something few movies have done, and that’s having an almost all black cast and crew in front of and behind the camera. This allowed Black Panther to have some amazing representation in a way that is unheard of for a superhero production.

Coogler’s amazing project isn’t just impactful for the industry, though, but it is also simply a good movie. Telling the story of King T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) of Wakanda, this 2018 epic has great commentary on the costs of isolationism and the power that representation has. With a phenomenal screenplay by Coogler himself and Joe Robert Cole, Black Panther is a truly special Marvel film. Not to mention, with all the news that’s come out about Black Panther 3 from San Diego Comic Con, this is a fun flick to look back on.

‘Superman’ (2025)

When Guardians of the Galaxy came out in 2014, director James Gunn cemented himself as a director in the superhero space that was going to continue to change the game, no matter what universe he’s operating in. So, when it was revealed that Gunn was not only going to be the head of the new DC Cinematic Universe, DC Studios, but the director of the next film starring the Man of Steel, people were extremely excited. Thankfully for Superman fans, Superman ended up being a phenomenal project.

Whether one likes or hates the DCEU’s interpretation of Superman (aside from the exceptional casting of Henry Cavill), it cannot be denied that the comic book company’s iconic character was missing his staple whimsy. Gunn brought that whimsy back in full force. The hope, light, and soul that people feel walking out of 2025’s Superman is one of a kind—a feeling that can only be brought by Superman himself. Also, the new casting of David Corenswet as the big blue boy scout was genuinely perfect. He embodies the role in an extremely genuine manner.

‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ (2014)

Speaking of Guardians of the Galaxy, this 2014 production helped redefine the MCU for the fact that it took some of Marvel Comics’ lesser known/cared about characters (to the general public, anyway) and made them fan favorites for many. Plenty of people will say that Guardians of the Galaxy is one of the best superhero movies of recent years, and also one of Marvel’s best trilogies in their large catalog of stories. This also brought in a whole new kind of style to superhero films, because this isn’t just a super flick, but a space opera, too.

The best things about this James Gunn production are the colorful visuals, incredible performances from the entire cast, a great story by Gunn, and, most notably, the soundtrack—filled to the brim with 80s style and love. Another factor about this project that really pops off is the director’s prowess at balancing tone. The way the movie can go from being an absolute goof-fest to some of the best emotional drama in Phase Two of the MCU.

‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ (2026)

As the name suggests, it truly is a brand new day for Spider-Man (Tom Holland) with the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. This Destin Daniel Cretton flick redefines the MCU’s Peter Parker in an excellent manner, and gets audiences excited about what’s to come next for the Wall-Crawler in cinema. This is quite easily Holland’s best performance as the young hero, and he brings forth a character arc that is reminiscent of Sam Raimi‘s Spider-Man 2 in the absolute best way possible.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is everything superhero films have been needing: a grounded, honest, and genuine plot about a street-level hero who is simply trying his best to get by. The story here is filled to the brim with heart and soul, and has top-tier performances not just from the film’s protagonist, but his supporting cast, as well—Zendaya, Sadie Sink, Jon Bernthal, and more. This is one of the best Spider-Man films of all time, and one of the greatest superhero movies in general from recent years.

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ (2014)

Many will agree that the Captain America (Chris Evans) trilogy is one of the MCU’s best, if not the straight-up best, period. It contains one of the best superhero movies of all time: Captain America: The Winter Soldier. This sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger helped put Joe Russo and Anthony Russo—who would go on to make two of the most profitable movies in cinema history for Marvel—on the map, and raised the standard for superhero movies as a whole for a plethora of reasons.

In many people on the internet’s opinions, the Russo Brothers helped “make Captain America cool.” The smartest thing it does is, rather than change Steve Rogers to fit the world, they changed the world to contrast with him—keeping him the same man, and seeing how that affects both him and those around him. With the emergence of the infamous, mysterious assassin known as The Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), and the truth behind him being Steve’s classic best friend, this movie doesn’t just pack a punch in grounded and thrilling action, but in its drama, as well.

‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ (2018)

What can even be said about Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse that hasn’t been said by others over a million times already? The movie that caused a gigantic shift in the animation film medium has to be considered one of the best, not just for its profound impact, but because of how truly astounding the final product turned out. It’s a true hero’s journey through and through, and Miles Morales (Shameik Moore) is quite easily one of the best leading Spider-Men out there. It’s a true coming-of-age superhero tale that is very compelling.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is simply special—there aren’t many other ways to put it. It feels like a generational film that has a quality that only comes around every so often. The attention to detail, the performances, the genuine care and love poured into the product by every single person working on the team, no matter what part of production they’re in, is so clear through the inherent quality of the film.

General Hospital has Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) eager to see the last of Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) because she’s jealous and threatened. Meanwhile, Drew Cain Quartermaine (Cameron Mathison) is itching to make Willow pay, but his hands are tied and he cannot go to the cops thanks to the WSB having blackmail on him. We could see a twist coming with Jacinda and Drew teaming up in an epic takedown to destroy Willow since Jacinda and Drew have a shared goal against her.

General Hospital: Drew’s Fully Recovered

So, this week we’ve seen Drew officially recovered. He’s literally back on his feet walking and talking. The only thing he’s not doing right now is driving. His lawyers doing that. But time spent locked in has not made Drew nicer. Instead, it has made him exponentially worse. And he would love to see Willow behind bars. But Drew’s got to find more subtle ways to get revenge on Willow.

And yes, Drew was manipulative, but he didn’t deserve two bullets in the back and Willow locking him inside his body for six months. Drew’s right to be ticked off. And he knows what’ll hurt Willow the most is losing her kids. But Drew can’t go at her directly or he’ll wind up in prison.

Brennan’s got that campaign fraud evidence that could put him away for life. So Drew’s got to figure out an underhanded path to get revenge on Willow. And you know, there’s no way Drew is going to let bygones be bygones. He wants Willow’s life ruined.

Drew Gets a Partner on GH

So, it’d be perfect if Drew had a partner in crime to help target Willow so he has plausible deniability and Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) won’t use the blackmail evidence. And somebody else who would like to take down Willow is Michael Corinthos’ (Rory Gibson) girlfriend, Jacinda.

This week, Willow told Michael she’s divorcing Drew and wants 50/50 custody of their kids instead of the 60/40 she has now. And Michael’s main objection before was he didn’t want the kids around Drew, but now he’s out of the picture. And Willow said with Michael’s felony conviction and him dating an ex sex worker Jacinda, she thinks she’ll do okay in custody court.

And she might. So very soon, Jacinda talks to Michael about what he’s going to do about Willow. Jacinda is not going to like Willow trying to get more custody out of Michael. And bottom line, Jacinda is threatened by Willow’s ongoing role in Michael’s life. And Jacinda may worry with Willow single again that she and Michael might reunite for the sake of their kids.

A valid concern for a girlfriend to have, but Michael hates Willow. So, there’s this GH summer spoiler that says Jacinda gets impatient with Michael’s plan to get Willow out of their lives. But Michael at this point doesn’t have a lot of ammo to use against Willow. She was acquitted in court of shooting Drew. There’s no evidence against her. And now Willow’s single. Plus, she has a good reputation in Congress and she has managed to make herself into a pillar of the community.

General Hospital: Revenge Partners and Dangerous Schemes

And that leaves Michael with not a lot of room to maneuver. But he’s willing to be patient because he assumes Willow will screw up again and he can make a move then. But Jacinda isn’t patient with this plan. She doesn’t like Michael taking a wait-and-see approach.

So, GH spoilers say Jacinda is going to take matters into her own hands. And I’m wondering if Jacinda could end up conspiring with Drew. They aren’t strangers. Those two know each other.

If you recall, Jacinda and Drew have a wild history. Although it was brief, it was very memorable. That was back in April when Drew was blackmailing Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) and Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) and they were desperate.

And Jacinda was working in a capacity that put her at the Metro Court. So, Jacinda was involved in that situation, and she’s someone who’s on Drew’s radar. He’s not a fan after what happened, but he knows others were to blame. And right now, Drew and Jacinda have a mutual goal: denying Willow her kids and destroying her life.

Drew Picks His Battles on GH

Obviously, Drew is no fan of Michael’s either, but Drew would rather see Michael have the kids. And let’s be real, Jacinda actually likes Michael’s children, but Drew doesn’t. He’s been awful to them. And Drew hates Willow so much right now. So, I could see Drew running into Jacinda and she may remind Drew that it was nothing personal what happened. It was just a job.

And I could see Jacinda bringing up his divorce from Willow. And Drew may realize he and Jacinda have a common goal and could benefit from working together, especially since Drew can’t outright do anything against Willow because of the evidence that Brennan has.

And as you know, others and Willow and Jack are all going to be watching Drew’s every move. But Jacinda is not on their radar other than Willow’s threat to Michael. Plus, Jacinda is sneaky and resourceful, and she really wants rid of Willow. So, I don’t think that Jacinda will mind getting her hands dirty. And with Drew’s help, Jacinda could set up Willow bad.

General Hospital: Willow Set Up

For instance, they could make her look like an unfit mother so that she loses all chances of getting more custody time and might have her custody taken. We could see Jacinda and Drew staging something in public that will ruin Willow’s reputation and make her look like an unfit mother. That could cost her the kids and her seat in Congress.

Or Jacinda and Drew could work with Michael’s plan to make it look like Willow cheated or did something scandalous. Jacinda may tell Drew about this plan and they decide to pick up where Michael left off because he seems to have abandoned it. Also, Jacinda may have other reasons to go after Willow that stem from past conflicts.

So, that’s another reason to go after Willow. And if Jacinda’s plotting costs her relationship with Michael, honestly, I could see a world where Jacinda winds up with Drew. I mean, he’s better than some other options. And if he’s not in Congress, he can date an ex sex worker if he wants to.

And speaking of past relationships, there are shady figures in Willow’s orbit who might tell Jacinda everything they know about Willow’s history. And that way Jacinda and Drew could find a way to use that in a revenge plan against Willow.

High Stakes and Dangerous Consequences on GH

Also, we recently got a leak from our behind-the-scenes source that said Jacinda might wind up dead by the end of summer and Willow is blamed for her death even though she’s innocent of hurting Jacinda. I don’t think anybody would believe Willow because of all the other things she’s done. The rumor went on to say that she ends up in Ferncliff, the psychiatric hospital, and that ties into another leak, saying that the actress wants to take a bit of a long break from General Hospital because she’s kind of burned out from all this front burner stuff.

And that could be why Willow goes to Ferncliff. So, it might be Jacinda and Drew who get her sent there. I could even see where they fake Jacinda’s death and then Drew pays her off so she can leave the country, but they leave evidence to look like Willow killed Jacinda, maybe in a jealous rage over Michael.
