Arnold Schwarzenegger as Agent John “Breacher” Wharton screaming in SabotageCustom Image by Jefferson Chacon
Whodunnits are currently having a moment, thanks in no small part to the success of Rian Johnson’s acclaimed Knives Out trilogy starring Daniel Craig. The success of this series has been accompanied by shows such as Only Murders in the Building, The Afterparty, Presumed Innocent, and even Mare of Easttown. Earlier this year, Netflix released the three-part series Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials, introducing the “Queen of Crime” to a younger generation. Christie’s stories have had a lasting impact on the genre over the last century, and one of the most unlikely offshoots of her work is an action movie headlined by Arnold Schwarzenegger that’s about to be added to a free streaming platform.
The movie in question was released theatrically in 2014 and directed by David Ayer. He was coming off the success of the critically acclaimed hit End of Watch, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Peña. Unlike that movie, however, Ayer’s 2014 release was met with mediocre reviews and a disappointing box-office reception. It ended up grossing just $22 million against a reported budget of $30 million. The movie’s premise was inspired by arguably the most popular story that Christie had ever written: “And Then There Were None.” It follows a veteran DEA agent whose teammates are picked off one by one, pushing him to investigate who’s targeting the team.

01
You’re dropped into a dangerous situation with no warning. What do you need most from a partner? The first few seconds tell you everything about who belongs beside you.
Advertisement
02
You have to get somewhere dangerous, fast. How do you travel? How you get there is half the mission.
Advertisement
03
You’re pinned down and outnumbered. What does your ideal partner do? This is when you find out what someone is really made of.
Advertisement
04
The mission is paused. You have one evening to decompress. What does your partner suggest? Who someone is when the pressure drops is who they actually are.
Advertisement
05
How do you prefer your partner to communicate mid-mission? Good communication is the difference between partners and a liability.
Advertisement
06
Your enemy is powerful, well-resourced, and has the upper hand. How should your partner approach them? The approach to the enemy defines the partnership.
Advertisement
07
Things go badly wrong and you’re captured. What do you trust your partner to do? Who someone is when you need them most is the only thing that matters.
Advertisement
08
What does your ideal partner bring to the table that you couldn’t replace? A great partner fills the gap you didn’t know you had.
Advertisement
09
Every partnership has a cost. Which of these can you live with? No one comes without baggage. The question is whether you can carry it together.

It’s the final moment. Everything is on the line. What do you need from your partner right now? The last question is the most honest one.

Your Partner Has Been Assigned Your Perfect Partner Is…
Your answers have pointed to one action hero above all others. This is the person built to have your back — for better or considerably, spectacularly worse.
Advertisement
Rambo
Your partner doesn’t talk much, doesn’t need to, and will have assessed every threat in your immediate environment before you’ve finished your first sentence. John Rambo is not a man of plans or politics — he is a force of nature shaped by survival, loyalty, and a capacity for endurance that goes beyond anything training can produce. He will not leave you behind. He has never left anyone behind who deserved to come home. What you get with Rambo is the most capable, most quietly ferocious partner imaginable — one who has been through things that would have broken anyone else, and who chose to keep going anyway. You’ll never need to ask if he has your back. You’ll just know.
James Bond
Advertisement
Your partner will arrive perfectly dressed, perfectly briefed, and with a cover story so convincing it’ll take you a moment to remember what’s actually true. James Bond is the most professionally dangerous person in any room he enters — and the most disarmingly charming, which is the point. He operates in a world of layers, where nothing is what it appears and every advantage is used without apology. You’ll never be bored. You’ll occasionally be furious. But when it matters — when the mission is genuinely on the line and the margin for error has collapsed to nothing — Bond is exactly the partner you want. He has survived things that have no business being survivable. He does it with style. That is not nothing.
Indiana Jones
Your partner will know the history, the language, the cultural context, and exactly why the thing everyone else is ignoring is actually the most important thing in the room. Indiana Jones is brilliant, reckless, and occasionally impossible — but he is also one of the most resourceful, most genuinely knowledgeable partners you could find yourself beside. He approaches every situation with a scholar’s eye and a brawler’s instinct, which is an unusual combination and a remarkably effective one. He hates snakes and gets personally attached to objects of historical significance, both of which will slow you down at least once. It doesn’t matter. What Indy brings is irreplaceable — and the adventures you’ll have together will be the kind people write books about. Assuming you survive them.

John McClane
Your partner was not supposed to be here. He does not have the right equipment, the right information, or anything approaching the right odds. He has a sarcastic remark and an absolute refusal to accept that the situation is as bad as it looks. John McClane is the greatest accidental hero in the history of action cinema — a man whose superpower is stubbornness, whose contingency plan is improvisation, and whose capacity to absorb punishment and keep moving would be alarming if it weren’t so useful. He will complain the entire time. He will make it significantly more chaotic than it needed to be. And he will absolutely, unconditionally, without question come through when it counts. Yippee-ki-yay.
Advertisement
Ethan Hunt
Your partner has already run seventeen scenarios by the time you’ve finished reading the briefing, and the plan he’s settled on involves at least two things that should be physically impossible. Ethan Hunt operates at the absolute edge of human capability — technically, physically, and intellectually — and he brings the same relentless precision to protecting his partners that he brings to dismantling organisations that shouldn’t exist. He is not easy to know and he will never fully tell you everything. But he will carry the weight of the mission so completely, so absolutely, that your job is simply to trust him — and the remarkable thing is that trusting him always turns out to be the right call. The mission will be impossible. He will complete it anyway.

Here’s Where You Can Watch the Crime Mystery Movie for Free
We’re talking, of course, about Sabotage. The film also features Joe Manganiello, Sam Worthington, Terrence Howard, Mireille Enos, Josh Holloway, and others. The movie now holds a 21% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Sabotage boasts one of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s finer post-political performances, but it’s wasted in a movie driven by grueling violence that punishes seemingly without purpose.” Ayer went on to direct the big-budget superhero movie Suicide Squad, which derailed his career for some time. But he bounced back with two back-to-back hits starring Jason Statham — The Beekeeper and A Working Man — and is now getting ready to release a new survival thriller starring Brad Pitt. You can watch Sabotage on Pluto TV starting August 1, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
Jon Bernthal in The Accountant 2Image via Amazon MGM
2026 has been a huge year for Jon Bernthal, who plays a key role in one of the biggest movies of the year, The Odyssey. After already grossing over $650 million at the box office in less than two weeks, The Odyssey is expected to finish its run with north of $1.3 billion globally, making it the biggest Christopher Nolan movie of all time. Bernthal co-stars in the historical epic with Tom Holland, but it’s not the only big movie of the summer the two star in together. The duo can be seen headlining Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which opened in theaters this weekend and is eyeing a historic box office opening. Bernthal recently starred in the first solo MCU Punisher project of his career, The Punisher: One Last Kill, the Disney Plus special now streaming around the world.
Bernthal has become one of the biggest action stars in the world in the last 10 years, largely due to his role as Braxton opposite Ben Affleck in The Accountant movies. The first Accountant movie released all the way back in 2016, and while it took some time, the franchise finally came back with a sequel last year, which earned widespread acclaim from both critics and audiences. The Accountant is streaming on HBO Max overseas, where it’s one of the top 10 most-watched titles in more than 15 countries. It’s currently absent from streaming in America. It’s the perfect mash-up of John Wick and The Equalizer for fans of high-octane action that’s also methodical.

What Is the First ‘Accountant’ Movie About?
The official synopsis for The Accountant reads as follows: “Ben Affleck stars as Christian Wolff, a math-savant CPA who secretly launders books for the world’s most dangerous criminal organizations. When he takes on a legitimate robotics firm and its accountant (Anna Kendrick) uncovers a massive discrepancy, his cover unravels—and a Treasury agent (J.K. Simmons) closes in. As the truth surfaces, the body count rises fast.” The Accountant earned scores of 53% from critics and 77% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. Amazon has confirmed that a third Accountant movie is in the works, but it’s unclear at this time how it fits into the busy schedules of both Affleck and Bernthal.

Disney+ is adding a slew of content in August, with new shows and movies that will also be available on Hulu, the other streamer The Walt Disney Company owns.
The main highlight of Disney+’s August programming is the debut of the long-awaited sequel Camp Rock 3, which sees the Jonas Brothers return to the franchise that made them famous. (Demi Lovato is not reprising her character, Mitchie Torres, who led the first two films.)
Later in the month, the long-running animated comedy Futurama returns for another season, and a Spider-Man spinoff, Venom: The Last Dance with Tom Hardy, waltzes onto the platform.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye is ready for the 2026-2026 NFL season after sustaining a shoulder injury ahead of the 2026 Super Bowl.
“My shoulder’s feeling great,” Maye, 23, told sports reporter Kay Adams during his training camp on Friday, July 31. “I think that was a bummer way to end the last game.”
The NFL star suffered an injury during the AFC championship game in January after stiff-arming Denver Broncos linebacker Jonah Elliss during the fourth quarter, a move that helped secure his team’s spot in Super Bowl LX.
“I’m feeling good. I’m feeling good. We’re gonna get some extra rest, and really the only thing that’s from the game, I think just the build up of throwing for, this is what, almost, including training camp, 30 weeks straight of throwing and four days a week,” Maye said during a press conference afterward, addressing his health. “It can add up. But I’ve got some extra rest. I’m feeling good, and yeah, ready to go for the Super Bowl.”
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye struggled to control his emotions after losing the 2026 Super Bowl. “I’m so proud,” Maye, 23, said in a postgame press conference on Sunday, February 8, after the Patriots lost to the Seattle Seahawks 29-13 in Super Bowl LX. “That’s probably the reason I’m choked up most.” Maye continued […]
Maye played through his injury during the big game the next month, ultimately losing to the Seattle Seahawks 13-29.

Following the loss, Maye had the chance to recuperate before returning to training camp in July.

“I think keeping the main thing the main thing, and that’s, you know, my family, my faith and playing this game of football,” he said on Friday of his pride in returning for his third season on the gridiron. “I think having my family and my wife at home, we really tried to [stay humble]. It’s just been a nature of who we are, and being from the South,[it’s] saying, ‘Yes ma’am’ and ‘No ma’am’ and just not lose sight of who I am. I think that’s what gets you places where you want to go in life.”
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye is grateful to have his wife, Ann Michael Maye, by his side throughout his NFL career. “It’s been awesome to follow her journey. I know [I] was looking forward to her getting up here,” Drake, 23, said during a Thursday, January 29, press conference. “After we got married, she […]
Drake has been married to his wife, middle school sweetheart Ann Michael Maye, since 2025. In addition to tirelessly supporting his football career, she’s also plied the Patriots with homemade cookies during training camp.

“Sometimes you got to take breakfast off or kind of eat, like, a yogurt or eat something small to try to save some room for some cookies,” Drake quipped. “She makes [baked goods] and … brings them to the offensive lineman! They make the rookies write out little notes and say thank you. Even the receivers want some, so everyone wants a little taste.”
The Exorcist star Linda Blair has broken her silence hours after 70 law enforcement officers reportedly raided her property.
“I just wanted to check in because we got a really big surprise visit,” Blair, 67, began a Friday, July 31, Instagram video, addressing the reports. “As it turns out, there is nothing but some paperwork and some new diagrams and things. But, as everybody knows, I have been trying to move for the last two years, really. It’s imperative to my health and trying to help more animals.”
TMZ reported earlier on Friday that approximately 70 members of various law enforcement and animal agencies were issued an investigative warrant to search her property for any violations and count how many animals that Blair houses on the premises. The outlet claimed that Blair has a permit to keep 60 dogs, though authorities found 200 canines living there. None of Blair’s animals were immediately removed from her care.
As for the actress, she stressed that she is alright.
Stars’ best friends! Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and more celebrities have turned to their furry friends for comfort during the coronavirus outbreak — and many are providing forever homes to pups in need. The “Slide Away” singer and ex-boyfriend Cody Simpson introduced their rescue pup Bo to their Instagram followers in March 2020, adding to […]
“I’m fine [and] the animals are fine,” Blair said in her Friday update. “We just have some paperwork that has to be dealt with, and that’s all this was all about. I don’t know why mail isn’t used more often to notify somebody, just saying.”

Blair founded her eponymous nonprofit, the Linda Blair Worldheart Foundation, in 2003 to rescue and rehabilitate abused, neglected or abandoned animals.
“With, as busy as we all are in animal rescue and saving lives from the hot deserts and abandoned animals and shelters, everyone’s emails and social media are overloaded!” Blair captioned her upload. “Turns out, we just have some paperwork to do and some diagrams but as everybody knows, I’m looking to move so I can be more educational and help more animals. I’d rather move forward. I always say you know a good old-fashioned letter of contact always works. Be safe; safe lives support animal rescue ‘cause we’re all fighting to save lives.”

Amid her acclaimed Hollywood career, Blair launched her nonprofit to help animals in need.

“I started rescuing in 1997 [and promoting] animal welfare since 1984,” Blair wrote via Instagram late last month. “I am hands-on in my foundation. I am the main rescuer, hands-on, preventative care, healer, behaviorist, trainer and matchmaker for [potential] adopters.”
She continued at the time, “We have a pet overpopulation crisis in the world! … We need help with this $5000-plus bill to get all these dogs, spayed, neutered, microchip and rabies. If you can help, please do!”
“Hi, I’m going to make this video one time and then if anyone else has any questions about the changes and the size of my body you can just link them to this video,” Myers, 33, shared in a video uploaded via TikTok on Friday, July 31. “I had a hysterectomy a little less than a year ago.”
She continued, “I was on my way back to track the very first day of my audio book and I went to beg my OB for a uterine oblation, which is where they cauterize the inside of your uterus, because I had been in so much pain for, like, five plus years. So much pain. And not just pain, but I had been bleeding out every single day for years straight — like no reprieve.”
According to the influencer, she was bleeding so much she had to wear “a tampon, a pad and an adult diaper” — and still, she said she had to put down a towel “on every single surface I sat on” because she would still bleed through.
Olivia Culpo, Julianne Hough and more stars have become fierce advocates for women’s health — especially when it comes to endometriosis. Endometriosis causes abnormal tissue growth in and around the uterus, and is one of the leading causes of infertility in women. The condition occurs in as many as 1 in 10 women, according to […]
“I am humiliated making this video,” she added. “But the change in my appearance is because for the very first time I’m not experiencing all of this. I’m not in chronic pain. I’m not throwing up in the middle of the day because I’m hurting. I’m not bleeding out. I’m not about to pass out.”
She continued, “You met me when I was months postpartum from my very first child and then I got pregnant again — he had a hole in his heart, that’s a whole other thing we can talk about another time, he’s great now — and then after all of that was finally resolved I finally realized, like, ‘Oh my god, maybe it’s not normal that I’m bleeding out every single day for years at a time. Maybe it’s not normal that I’m doubled over in pain, and maybe there’s a solution for this.’ So I tried everything. Everything. The only solution was to get my uterus and my cervix removed.”
The 33-year-old influencer, who has amassed more than 7 million followers on TikTok alone, said that she was “devastated” to hear the news that the only treatment for her chronic pain was to have her uterus removed.
“I cannot tell you how sad I was,” she continued. “And I did it. And three weeks later, I went on my book tour where every single night I had to sit on a stage with ice on my lap. And that was better than the reality I had been living in.”

She added, “So the way that you’re seeing me show up now is the version of me that should have existed the whole time. I am so happy and so healthy, I won’t apologize for that. I also understand that I don’t want to trigger people with my body.”
Amy Schumer kept her uterus as a souvenir after having it surgically removed. The comedian, 42, discussed her bronze trophy on an episode of the “SmartLess” podcast with Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett, which was released on Monday, March 11. “Jason asked me one time, like very rudely, because I actually had my […]
Myers, who published her illustrated memoir That’s a Great Question, I’d Love to Tell You in October 2025, went on to address online comments about her body in the wake of her hysterectomy.
“I don’t know if I have a responsibility to explain why the size of my body has changed or not but I do take it seriously because I want to be a safe place for people,” she explained. “Every single piece of content I make, my goal is to make people feel loved, known and like they belong. I don’t want my physical appearance to hinder people from feeling that way, but I don’t really know — I don’t know how to get past that because I feel so happy.”

She continued, at times growing emotional, “I’m sorry if my experience post-hysterectomy doesn’t align with what you think it should or what your experience was. And I’m sorry if my appearance is triggering to you because gosh that makes me sad. But what I’m not going to do is apologize for being pain-free and happy and genuinely so happy for the first time in so many years.”
“There’s been a lot of conversation about it outside of my own conversations for so many years,” Rodgers, 42, told NFL Network’s Kyle Brandt on Saturday, August 1, of his decision to reconnect with his previously estranged family members. “You know, a big part of it was getting married and having those conversations with my wife that allowed me to kind of open up to the possibility of coming together — it’s been a couple-year process now, the conversations with [my family].”
Rodgers, who announced he married a woman named Brittani in June 2025, shared a July 2026 Instagram carousel of photos featuring the former Green Bay Packers quarterback posing with his parents, Ed Rodgers and Darla Rodgers, and his older brother, Luke Rodgers. (Aaron’s younger brother, Jordan Rodgers, was noticeably absent from the social media post.)
“Another bonding week,” Aaron captioned the carousel at the time.
Aaron Rodgers’ biographer is shedding light on the pro quarterback’s family dynamic, days after he shared photos via Instagram with his parents and brother, Luke. “They had been working towards reconciliation for a while,” The Athletic columnist and author Ian O’Connor wrote via X on Tuesday, July 21. “Rodgers invited parents Ed & Darla to […]
According to footage obtained by TMZ, the quarterback was spending time with his mom and dad back in April — well before his social media upload — at the inaugural Pleasant Valley High School Athletics Hall of Fame dinner in Chico, California. (The ceremony, held at the Chico Elks Lodge, celebrated Aaron’s journey from a three-sport standout at Pleasant Valley High School to one of football’s most successful quarterbacks. According to TMZ, Aaron gave a speech during the event and even thanked his parents.)

“I have been very closed off about that part of my life and I want to keep it that way, but there’s been a narrative that has gone on for too long that I wanted to kind of shut down,” Aaron continued on Saturday. “And it’s been really beautiful to reconnect with them — all of them.”
He added, “And I got to spend a long weekend recently — [where] those [social media] pictures are from — in Nashville with my parents and his brother and his sweet wife and their incredible two kids. So I got to be an uncle, so it’s really special.”
“And I’m happy to be reunited and that part of my life is a really beautiful addition and I got to give my wife a lot of credit — not that she was pushing me, because she never was, but just the way that she loves and supports me,” he added. “Having her by my side during this process has been really special, and I miss those relationships. And there’s reasons for it that don’t need to be talked about but I’m thankful that that’s come all the way back around.”
As Aaron Rodgers celebrates his new marriage, he revealed the hostility within his immediate family continues to rage on. Rodgers, 41, appeared on ESPN’s The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday, June 24, where he discussed his wife, Brittani, for the first time since he announced they had tied the knot recently. In doing so, Rodgers […]

Brandt, for his part, told the quarterback that he is “happy” for him and his wife, who has remained out of the spotlight since Aaron announced he is no longer a single man.
“I was genuinely moved by your post with your family and your parents — like genuinely, I thought it was really, really cool,” Brandt told Aaron at the beginning of their conversation.
Pastore was found dead in his City Island residence in the Bronx on Saturday, August 1, by a neighbor, per Page Six. The outlet reported that police suspect Pastore died from natural causes.
“I had the privilege of representing Vinny for more than 30 years, long before The Sopranos made him a household name,” his manager, Robert Attermann, told Page Six on Saturday, confirming the actor’s death. “To the world, he will always be remembered as the unforgettable ‘Big Pussy,’ but to those of us who knew him, he was so much more.”
His statement continued, “Vinny was one of the kindest, most generous people I have ever known. He treated everyone with warmth and respect, never turning down a fan who wanted a photograph or an autograph.”

Pastore is best known for playing Tony Soprano’s mafioso henchman-turned-saboteur Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on the first two seasons of HBO’s The Sopranos. (Following Sal’s infamous exit story line, Pastore returned multiple times for guest appearances on the HBO drama.)
He broke into acting after obtaining a drama degree from New York’s Pace University. He had previously served in the U.S. military, fighting in the country’s Vietnam War. Pastore carved out a niche within the sprawling entertainment industry via various supporting roles in classic mob movies, including Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way, Witness to the Mob and Mafia!.
Away from the mob movie genre, Pastore lent his voice to the 2004 animated movie Shark Tale as the octopus Luca and voiced Terry on Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
Following the announcement of his death, Pastore was remembered as a “beloved friend and collaborator” by Sopranos costar Michael Imperioli on Saturday. (Imperioli portrayed Tony Soprano’s drug-addicted protege Christopher on the HBO drama.)

“This is a hard one for us, it seems like I’ve known Vinny forever. We did lots of work together and traveled all over the USA as well as Italy and Australia,” Imperioli, 60, wrote via Instagram. “Lots of good times. Lots of laughs. Vinny was a kind hearted brother who cared deeply about his family and friends. I will miss him always.”

Fellow Sopranos alum Edie Falco — who played Tony Soprano’s long-suffering wife Carmella — told Page Six on Saturday that Pastore’s death was “an awful loss” and “so unexpected.”
“Vinnie was always so full of life,” Falco, 63, noted.
Having worked with Pastore on both The Sopranos and Goodfellas, Lorraine Bracco remembered the actor as “such a charming and funny man” via her Instagram Story. (Bracco starred as Tony’s psychiatrist, Dr. Jennifer Melfi, on The Sopranos.)
“Just a beautiful soul. Absolutely heartbreaking.” Bracco, 71, added.

Junior Soprano actor Dominic Chianese shared via his own Instagram Story that he’d “lost a friend” on Saturday.

Vincent is survived by a daughter, Renee Pastore, from his marriage to ex-wife Nancy Berke.
His final big-screen performance will be in the upcoming 1950s coming-of-age drama Bad News on the Doorstep, in which he costarred with Mischa Barton, Rob Gronkowski and Chazz Palminteri.
Longtime fans of The Rookie were thrown a gigantic curveball in the show’s Season 8 finale. Tim Bradford (Eric Winter) finally proposed to Lucy Chen (Melissa O’Neil). She said yes, and all seemed right with the world — until the two were kidnapped by assailants working for the criminal Heath Everett (Jeffrey Vincent Parise), leaving viewers on a gut-punching cliffhanger. Unfortunately, viewers won’t find out what happens to Tim and Lucy until the show returns for its ninth season in 2027! The good news is that the show will kick off Season 9 with an exciting new storyline, marking a major change in the Chenford dynamic.
Season 9 Can Finally Move Away From Chenford’s Relationship Drama
After failing to give fans what they wanted in Season 7, the writers of The Rookie finally delivered the Tim and Lucy reunion early in Season 8. During Season 9, the couple primarily navigated the challenges of living together while also still working in the Mid-Wilshire Division together, and Lucy met Tim’s mother, Joy (Sela Ward). Now, they’ve been kidnapped by dangerous individuals who want them dead. The Season 9 premiere of The Rookie throws the couple into a fight for their lives, and their colleagues into a race against the clock to rescue them. This promises an action-heavy plot, so The Rookie will hit the ground running when the curtain rises on Season 9. The Mid-Wilshire Division will be thrust into a pulse-pounding adventure as Tim and Lucy’s friends desperately seek to help their teammates. That’s a lot more exciting than the melodrama over whether Tim and Lucy can finally reconcile their romance.

Your Universe Has Been Chosen You Belong In…
Your answers point to the iconic universe your values, your instincts, and your particular way of seeing the world were built for. This is where you would find your people — and your purpose.

A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
You believe in the cause — in the idea that freedom is worth fighting for even when the odds are impossible and the empire is vast.
Advertisement
You are drawn to the moral clarity of a universe where hope itself is a form of resistance.
You’d find your people in the Rebellion — a ragtag coalition of true believers held together by conviction more than resources.
Star Wars is fundamentally a story about ordinary people choosing to matter in an extraordinary conflict — and that is exactly your kind of story.
The Force may or may not be with you. But the will to use it for something larger than yourself certainly is.
Middle-earth
Lord of the Rings
You understand, in the deepest part of yourself, that the journey matters as much as the destination — and that the world’s beauty is worth protecting even at great cost.
Advertisement
Middle-earth is a world of ancient wonder, deep friendship, and a darkness that only retreats when enough small acts of courage accumulate.
You would thrive here because you value the fellowship more than the glory — the road more than the arrival.
Tolkien’s universe rewards patience, loyalty, and the willingness to carry something heavy across a very long distance.
Those are not burdens to you. They are simply how you move through the world.
The Wizarding World
Harry Potter
You believe that love, loyalty, and doing what’s right are not naive sentiments — they are the most powerful forces in any world, magical or otherwise.
Advertisement
The Wizarding World is a place of wonder hidden in plain sight, where learning is transformative and the bonds you form at school follow you into every battle.
You would flourish here because you take both the magic and the friendships seriously — and you understand that one without the other is incomplete.
Harry Potter’s universe ultimately rewards those who choose to stand for something even when standing is terrifying.
That choice — made quietly, without guarantee — is something you understand completely.
Westeros · The Known World
Game of Thrones
You see the world clearly — its power structures, its hypocrisies, its brutal arithmetic — and you are not paralysed by that clarity. You use it.
Advertisement
Westeros is a world that rewards intelligence, adaptability, and the willingness to understand that every alliance is also a negotiation.
You would survive here — possibly thrive here — because you don’t confuse the world as it is with the world as you’d like it to be.
Game of Thrones is a story about what happens when the idealists and the realists collide. You are sharp enough to know which one lasts longer.
Winter always comes. You are already prepared.
The United Federation of Planets
Star Trek
You believe the future is worth building — that curiosity, cooperation, and the expansion of understanding are not just ideals but the most practical path forward for any civilisation.
Advertisement
Star Trek is a universe where the questions matter as much as the answers, and where encountering something utterly alien is cause for wonder rather than fear.
You would belong here because you are fundamentally optimistic about what intelligence and decency can achieve — while being honest about how hard that achievement is.
The Federation is the universe’s most ambitious thought experiment: what if we actually got better?
You don’t just hope that’s possible. You think it’s the only thing worth working toward.

‘The Rookie Season 9 Will Open With a Huge Two-Parter
We don’t know much about The Rookie Season 9 premiere, but series creator and showrunner Alexi Hawley dropped a couple of tantalizing details during the show’s panel at the 2026 San Diego Comic-Con. Season 9 opens with a two-parter that will be “huge” in scope. Melissa O’Neil informed TV Insider that Tim and Lucy are in deep trouble, with the couple “currently incapacitated, unconscious with bags on their heads,” and Eric Winter noting that they’re “fighting for their lives.” O’Neil also teased that the two will likely be separated, which will likely cause emotional turmoil for Tim.
Lucy is an experienced undercover officer, and Bradford is a military combat veteran, which gives them an edge to survive this ordeal. This also isn’t the first time Lucy has been kidnapped, as fans will recall she was kidnapped by the serial killer Caleb Wright (Michael Cassidy) back in Season 2, who attempted to bury her alive. As traumatic as that ordeal was for Lucy, she’s a tough and hardened survivor. Although it’s an intense scenario, it provides potential for great, suspenseful storytelling.
The Mid-Wilshire Division Will Be All Hands on Deck

The other exciting aspect about the storyline to start Season 9 is that it will put the entire Mid-Wilshire Division on alert, with all hands on deck in the search for Tim and Lucy. The Mid-Wilshire Division has become an extended family over the years, and all the main cast members have a personal stake in finding their friends. Tim and Angela Lopez (Alyssa Diaz) are best friends, with Angela even taking an active role in helping Tim and Lucy get back together early in Season 8.
On Lucy’s side, Nyla Harper (Mekia Cox) and Lucy bonded and grew closer back when Nyla mentored Lucy during her UC training and then again when they went undercover in Season 8. Lucy and Celina Juarez (Lisseth Chavez) became roommates and lived together throughout Season 7, and Celina looks up to Lucy as a veteran officer. Meanwhile, Angela’s husband, defense attorney Wesley Evers (Shawn Ashmore), will likely feel responsible for Tim and Lucy’s kidnapping, since he briefly served as part of Heath Everett’s defense team near the end of the season. That will provide a strong emotional motivation for Wesley in the storyline, as he seeks to redeem himself with Tim.
For their former watch commander, Wade Grey (Richard T. Jones), Lucy and Tim are like his “kids,” as the actor refers to them when speaking to TV Insider. Grey is a father figure to both officers, grooming Tim to be his replacement as the new Watch Commander, and supervising Lucy from her first days as a rookie officer. This big-time storyline will showcase how important Tim and Lucy are to the entire crew, who will stop at nothing to make sure their friends return home safely. Although it’s a long wait, The Rookie Season 9 will kick off with a bang when it returns to ABC next year.

Joint discomfort doesn’t just affect athletes or people recovering from injuries. Everyday wear and tear can leave knees, shoulders, elbows and other joints feeling stiff over time, making it more important than ever to take action before your daily mobility is negatively impacted.
Enter MOVE+ by Kineon, a wearable red and infrared light therapy device — the kind of light physios use in clinic — that you wrap around a sore knee, shoulder or foot for about ten minutes a day. Think of light as a charger for tired cells: it gives the tissue in a sore joint more of the energy it needs to repair. Most red-light panels scatter at the skin; MOVE+ adds medical-grade lasers that stay focused enough to reach the deeper tissue where the pain actually lives.
Unlike bulky recovery equipment or complicated gadgets, MOVE+ is lightweight, wearable and totally hands-free. All it takes is ten minutes while you work or sit on the couch. Right now you can save $50 with code USM10.
Red and near-infrared light work with the body’s natural recovery process, making the technology an increasingly popular addition to modern wellness routines. MOVE+ isn’t a quick fix — the benefits build over weeks of consistent use, according to real-life users.
“What is clear is that slowly, the pain is less and I am able to flex the joint more easily,” one five-star reviewer wrote. “My daughter has used it a few times for a stiff neck and notices immediate relief.”

“I’ve been using my MOVE+ for several years now and with incredible results,” another five-star customer said. “I have found the MOVE+ extremely effective on my knee, in which I’ve had two cartilage scrapes, and my biceps tendons and rotator cuffs, which are both torn from overuse.”
Recovery isn’t just for athletes; it’s becoming part of how people support long-term health and wellness to maintain an active lifestyle. If you’ve been curious about wearable wellness technology, MOVE+ makes recovery feel a little more effortless.
Travis Kelce has formally corroborated his sister-in-law Kylie Kelce’s claim that three of her daughters already have him “wrapped” around their pinkies.
Kylie, 34, revealed on the Thursday, July 30, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast that Travis, 36, is a complete pushover when it comes to his nieces Wyatt, 6, Ellie, 5, and Bennett, 3. The jury is still out, however, for Finnley, who was born in March 2025.
“Confirmed!!” Travis wrote on Saturday, August 1, in the Instagram comments section of footage of the podcast clip. “Only a matter of time til Finn has me wrapped around her finger too.”
Kylie married Travis’ brother, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, before they welcomed their four little girls. Since then, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end has become the ultimate uncle.

“I think they all know that he is very down for anything they ask him to do or play. He’s in it,” Kylie revealed on Thursday about Travis’ bond with her kids. “They know that he’s a willing participant and will very rarely get a ’No.’”
The field hockey coach continued, “Typically, when they see Uncle Trav, it’s everybody in. I would say the only person who does not have Uncle Trav wrapped around their finger is Finn, and that’s because Finn wants nothing to do with anybody. Finn is mom’s child.”
While 17-month-old Finn is focused solely on her mother’s attention, Kylie explained that her eldest daughters often go “fullcourt press him whenever they see” Travis.
“I would say [Wyatt and Ellie] are more into the type of all-in play that both dad and Uncle Trav play,” Kylie recalled. “Uncle Trav will get down on the floor and play a quiet game of Barbies, but he will do the throw, launch, all that stuff, and the two older girls are more into that stuff. Bennett is — she’s a lady. She has pearls. She can’t be bothered with that type of play.”
Kylie Kelce is opening up about the sweet bond brother-in-law Travis Kelce and his fiancée, Taylor Swift, share with her and Jason Kelce‘s four daughters. During the Friday, February 6, episode of Kylie’s “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, Travis, 36, revealed the biggest request he gets from his nieces — Wyatt, 6, Ellie, 4, Bennett, 2, […]
Wyatt, Ellie, Bennett and Finn all got a chance to show off their bond with Travis when they served as flower girls during his wedding to now-wife Taylor Swift last month. (Swift, 36, and Travis said “I do” inside New York City’s Madison Square Garden arena after three years of dating.)
“It was a special event for our entire family, and obviously my daughters are incredible,” Jason, 38, told reporters at the American Century Championship last month. “They’re beautiful, they’re incredible personalities. … So, very happy we were able to be a part of it. And more importantly, very happy for those two. It was an amazing day.”
