A critically panned live-action adaptation of a beloved franchise has caught the attention of streaming audiences. While the feature was poorly received by fans and critics alike, it generated millions at the box office and sparked a prequel movie that was released a few years later. Over 30 years later, it has found a new audience.
Disney isn’t the only media company producing live-action adaptations of its beloved stories. Other studios have been doing it in the past, turning popular cartoons and comics into live-action movies. One example is Scooby-Doo, which entered theaters in 2002 and boasted a then-unknown James Gunn as a screenwriter. The same can be said for most superhero movies before the Marvel Cinematic Universe and DCU were established.
Recently, the 1994 live-action adaptation of The Flintstones found some success on streaming, landing at #3 on Netflix’s Top 10 Kids Movies in the United States, between Shark Tale and Flushed Away. Directed by Brian Levant, The Flintstones follows Fred Flintstone (John Goodman), who lands a new job as an executive at Slate & Co, but only got the job because his friend, Barney Rubble (Rick Moranis), swapped their tests because Fred loaned them money to help adopt their child, Bam-Bam. Little does Fred know that his new role was just a ploy so Slate & Co.’s vice-president, Cliff Vandercave (Kyle MacLachlan), could swindle the company’s fortune and pin the blame on someone else. Since its release, The Flintstones has received a low 23% critics score and a 25% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes; despite its $341.6 million box office gross, its performance led to the creation of a standalone prequel film, The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas.
Just like the Star Wars movies, The Flintstones almost had a sequel, released years after its prequel. Bedrock was supposed to be an upcoming sequel series that would have starred The Acolyte‘s Manny Jacinto and The Hunger Games‘ Elizabeth Banks, playing Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles respectively. According to the show’s synopsis, Bedrock would take place in the Bronze Age, when the Flintstones and Rubbles face retirement, and their kids have entered adulthood. This prequel series would steer away from live-action, return to its animated roots, and air on Fox. The project was first announced back in 2019, but it was not until 2024 that it was reported that it was no longer in the works but was “open to redevelopment” in the future. However, now a new Flintstones reboot is reportedly in the works, with Ryan Gosling reportedly set to play an adult version of Bamm-Bamm.
The Flintstones is available to stream on Netflix. Follow Collider for more updates.

A true crime docuseries might be topping the charts in the U.S., but the global Netflix crown belongs to Guy Ritchie‘s best television series. A spin-off of his 2019 film of the same name, The Gentlemen was one of the biggest new hits on the world’s largest streamer in 2024, as Eddie Horniman’s (Theo James) evolution from reluctant recipient of a drug empire to criminal veteran had the world hooked. Back with Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) for an international second season, Eddie’s return this month has dominated streaming conversation. But it isn’t the only series worth watching. With that in mind, here are three shows you should binge-watch on Netflix this week.

Animation fans are in for a treat this weekend on Netflix, as an exciting new adult comedy series makes its debut. The new series Dang! follows the messy New York lives of brother and sister Andrew (Andrew Law) and Eunice (Poppy Liu), whose fun is interrupted when their high-achieving sister Ruthie (Stephanie Hsu) shows up.
Adult animated sitcoms have long been a success on streaming, with Dang! hoping to follow in the footsteps of the likes of BoJack Horseman and Big Mouth by becoming the latest to impress on Netflix. Already earning strong reviews, this chaotic comedy has plenty of laughs and lots of heart, making for an easy way to enjoy your weekend.
If you’re searching for your next binge-watch to last long after this weekend, then why not start one of the most famous legal dramas of all time? The huge hit series Suits follows college dropout Mike Ross (Patrick J. Adams), who finds himself under the wing of hotshot lawyer Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) while on the run after a drug deal goes wrong.
Fans of The Lincoln Lawyer and Matlock shouldn’t miss out on the very best modern legal drama. Across nine seasons and 134 episodes, this indulgent drama twists and turns with savvy and charisma, never losing its detail or quality. Created by Aaron Korsh, Suits was recently followed by a long-awaited spin-off, Suits LA, which sadly failed to capture the unmissable essence of the original.
Based on the novel of the same name by Elin Hilderbrand, Jenna Lamia‘s The Perfect Couple follows the tragedy of a body found on the harbor during Nantucket wedding season. As the Chief of Police begins to put the pieces of the mysterious puzzle together, even the bride and groom aren’t safe from suspicion.
Murder mysteries set against gorgeous, wealthy backdrops are all the rage at the moment, with the likes of The White Lotus and Knives Out just two examples. The Perfect Couple is an excellent third, boasting a winding narrative sure to keep you guessing and some truly stunning visuals. Featuring Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber in pitch-perfect lead roles, this indulgent drama was such a hit that a second season was greenlit and is currently in development.

I often forget that Julianne Moore is in her 60s. The actress seems to have somehow stopped the clock, and I feel like I need to copy her beauty routine so I can age like her. Thankfully, not everything she uses is a splurge. She even opts for a drugstore cleanser that’s ridiculously affordable.
Moore shared her full skincare routine with Vogue, and admittedly, it’s not simple. “My skincare routine has gotten more and more complicated as I get older,” Moore said. However, her cleansing step remains straightforward with the Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser Fragrance Free. “I travel a lot, so I need to use something I can find all over the world,” she added
Get the Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser Fragrance Free for $16 at CVS! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to change.
Cetaphil isn’t just a standard face wash. It’s become a cult favorite for its sensitive-skin-friendly, fragrance-free formula that effortlessly deep cleans skin — yes, even removing makeup, dirt and grime — without stripping moisture. As we age, our skin struggles to maintain hydration, which is why it’s so important to use a cleanser jam-packed with hydrators. This one is chock full of ‘em.
Niacinamide, glycerin and panthenol flood your skin as you rinse the day away, keeping your complexion comfortable and soft rather than tight. The full experience feels quite luxe, too: As you lather, it foams a little bit so you get a deep clean and a refreshing sensation.
Is it a little basic? Yes, but shoppers swear that “sometimes basics really are best.” You don’t need the fanciest formula to get glowing skin. “I’ve been using Cetaphil consistently, and I can definitely see why it’s recommended so often,” one reviewer wrote. “It’s gentle, doesn’t leave my skin feeling tight or stripped, and it cleanses really well without causing irritation. If you have sensitive skin or just want a simple cleanser that does what it’s supposed to do, this one is worth trying.”
When it comes to cleansers, Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser Fragrance Free is one of the best. And since Moore trusts it — along with thousands of other customers — I absolutely trust it, too. Give your skin a full reset by cleansing with this, and you might never try another face wash.

Bachelor in Paradise alum, Joe Amabile, is revealing the physical reality of undergoing brain surgery — and fellow cancer survivor Busy Philipps is showing her support.
Posting via his Instagram on Wednesday, September 9, Joe, 40, shared several close-up photos of his brain surgery staples and healing scar in a carousel of images.
“I feel like my scar is coming along pretty nicely,” he captioned the image.
Philipps, 47, commented on the post to share her support after undergoing her own brain surgery in February after doctors found a tumor.
“Omg it looks so good👏👏👏(lol i won’t text you mine from when it got infected.),” the Dawson’s Creek alum wrote. In response, Joe joked, “Yeah, no need to 😂”
In July, Joe shared via Instagram that doctors had found “a blueberry size lesion” on his brain which appeared to be a tumor during an MRI scan.
The Bachelorette alum underwent brain surgery last month to get the lesion removed and tested. On August 6, Joe revealed that doctors “got it all” after operating on his brain. He was later diagnosed with “an astrocytoma, but it’s very low grade.” (Astrocytoma is a type of tumor found on the brain or spinal cord that starts in cells called astrocytes and may result in headaches, seizures, nausea or changes in mood or behavior, according to the Mayo Clinic.)
Meanwhile, Philipps updated fans on her cancer journey earlier this week.
“I got my six-month scan MRI and … no sign of tumor,” Philipps shared on Tuesday, September 8 via an Instagram video.
The actress revealed in August that she had been diagnosed with a grade 2 oligodendroglioma, a rare slow-growing tumor.
During an interview with People, Philipps said that she was recovering at the time. “I’m grateful that I’m alive,” she told the magazine, which reported that she showed no obvious symptoms ahead of her diagnosis.
Last month, Philipps said that she reached out to Joe after being alerted to his health journey, which bore many similarities to her own.
“If you’ve been following Joe Amabile … from The Bachelor, he’s been documenting in real time,” Philipps said via her Instagram Story on August 26. “I reached out to him because several of my friends sent me his original post. We have almost the exact same story — prenuvo scan, found this lesion in our brains, almost the exact same kind of tumor. His is slightly different than mine, we know now. I introduced him to my doctors.”
She continued, “He’s like my brain tumor brother. It’s so weird. But he’s been documenting it in real time. His recovery, he’s just a couple weeks out now. He’s going to run the marathon. He’s doing great. Love you Joe.”
BTS returned to Los Angeles for the final four shows of the North American leg of its “Arirang” tour and left SoFi Stadium with more records to its name.
The K-pop group had spent around five months taking the tour across the continent before the California finale, which drew roughly 282,000 die-hard fans.
This brought its North American audience to an estimated 1.92 million across 31 shows.
BTS returned to North America for a tour that marked another milestone for the K-pop group.
The tour lasted five months, with the band performing 31 shows. It took the group to cities such as El Paso, Mexico City, and New York, where eager longtime fans filled the venues.
In total, an estimated 1.92 million fans attended the concerts, according to the group’s agency, BigHit Music.

Drawing 1.92 million fans during a five-month run was not BTS’ only milestone on the North American leg of its tour.
The group also became the first music act to perform eight shows at SoFi Stadium, where it held the final four dates of the run.
Across those four shows, BTS welcomed roughly 282,000 fans to the Los Angeles stadium. Viewers in 177 countries also watched the performances through Weverse, the K-pop fan community platform.
Including attendance from its previous shows in 2021, BTS has now drawn approximately 496,000 fans to SoFi Stadium, setting the highest cumulative attendance for any act at the venue.

BTS fans who visited SoFi Stadium had another reason to celebrate, as the concerts fell on or near the birthdays of members Jungkook and RM.
Jungkook’s birthday fell on September 1, while RM will celebrate his on September 12. Fans serenaded Jungkook at the show on his birthday, while RM got an early celebration on September 6.
The celebrations extended beyond the singing, as fans lit up the stadium in gold and blue. The colors paid homage to Jungkook’s “Golden” and RM’s “Indigo” solo albums.
The group later thanked fans during its closing remarks, reflecting on how quickly the time had passed and expressing hope of staying connected with them wherever they were.
During the tour, BTS broke a record previously held by The Rolling Stones.
The group grossed $127.8 million and sold 641,000 tickets across 12 shows between May 2 and May 28.
That total exceeded the record The Rolling Stones set in August 2019 during their No Filter Tour by more than $30 million.
The result made BTS the month’s highest-grossing and best-selling touring act for the second consecutive month.
More significantly, the May figures gave BTS the biggest monthly gross by a group since Billboard’s Top Tours chart began in 2019.

Before the tour, BTS made an impact on streaming platforms when “Arirang” arrived in March.
At the time of its release, the album became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day in 2026 and set a single-day record for a K-pop album.
It earned 110 million filtered streams on its first day and 545 million streams during its first week.
One of its songs, “SWIM,” also reached 100 million Spotify streams in eight days, making it one of the fastest songs to reach the milestone in 2026.
The album had also generated significant interest before its release, with Spotify reporting more than five million pre-saves on its Countdown Page.

Summer meant wearing sneakers daily, but now that it’s (basically) fall, I’m ready for new go-to shoes. Instead of opting for boring black boots, I’m copying the New York rich girls on Pinterest with these 13 sleek, luxe-looking styles.
From loafers and flats to mules and slingbacks, these elevated fall shoes give sporty kicks a run for their money — and they don’t cost much of it. My favorite styles from Dr. Scholl’s, Vionic, Sam Edelman and more scream ‘expensive’ yet start at only $8! Read on to see the chicest fall looks on my radar this season.
1. My Favorite: This slingback style gives boring flats a modern twist, especially with the pointed toe and rich nude color.
2. Brown Trend: Everyone’s rocking chocolate brown lately, and these matte penny loafers nail the aesthetic. The intricate stitching gives them a high-end appearance.
3. Ballerina Babe: Ever since Nicole Kidman wore ballerina sneakers, I’ve been eyeing this bow-lace pair. They’re much more chic than trainers.
4. Luxe Leopard: Leopard print is totally back, so it’s no wonder these classy, sassy flats are selling out. I also adore the metal hardware on top.
5. Busy Mornings: When you’re running out the door, you’ll be glad to have these easy suede mules that slip on in seconds. I promise, they’ll instantly add polish your outfit.
6. Real Leather: If you’re serious about dressing expensive, opt for these leather Vionic loafers. The hidden arch support is just a bonus.
7. Glam Girl: Become the center of attention in these shiny gold shoes that feature a slingback strap, pointed toe and modest 3-inch block heel.
8. Total Classic: Look no further for shoes you’ll wear from now through 2030. These timeless Mary Janes never go out of style.
9. Wine Night: These wine-colored mule flats make even a tee and jeans look expensive. The glossy finish seals the deal.
10. Secret Support: Calling comfort connoisseurs! Not only do these Dr. Scholl’s loafers have a cute tassel accent, but they also feature plenty of cushioning.
11. Confidence Boost: Swap flats for these boutique-like kitten heels and watch your confidence (and height) skyrocket.
12. Diamond in the Rough: I scoured DSW’s fall collection to find these bejeweled Sam Edelman flats that truly go with everything.
13. Oddly Versatile: Give your wardrobe a pop of color with these oddly versatile blue loafers. They’re equally pretty and playful.

Workout clothes have officially become everyday clothes, and Hillary Duff just gave Us another reason to embrace the crossover. The actress stepped out in the Free People Go To Striped Sports Bra, a sporty $48 top that’s cute enough for the gym, running errands or even when your workout plans never quite materialize. Suddenly, our usual black sports bras are starting to feel a little bit boring.
Duff was spotted wearing her Free People sports bra after a workout, pairing the striped style with leggings and low-profile sneakers for an easy off-duty look. Shockingly, the triple-threat’s top is still available for purchase, so you can recreate her sporty style without the hassle of hunting down a quality lookalike.
Get the Free People Go To Striped Sports Bra for $48 at Free People! Please note, prices are accurate as of the publishing date but are subject to change.
A playful striped design instantly separates this sports bra from the sea of plain workout tops already taking up space in your drawer. The scoop-neck silhouette has a sporty, retro-inspired look, while the cropped length makes it easy to style with your favorite high-rise leggings or bike shorts.
You don’t have to reserve this pick for workouts, either. Throw an oversized zip-up or button-down on top for coffee runs and daily errands, or pair it with relaxed sweatpants when comfort is the only goal. On warmer days, it’s cute enough to stand on its own with casual shorts and sneakers. Plus, it comes in so many color combinations that there’s an option for everyone.
Shoppers are so impressed that buying just one apparently isn’t always enough. “I have 5 of these,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “I loved the first one so much I ordered another and then just kept going.”
Another shopper confirmed its appeal extends well beyond workouts. “This top is so cute and perfect just for a lazy day or going for a run,” they wrote, making a strong case for keeping it in your rotation regardless of what the day has in store.
If your activewear drawer could use something a little more fun than another basic sports bra, follow Duff’s lead while her exact striped style is still available. At $48, it’s the kind of versatile Free People find you might end up wanting multiples, too.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has featured a variety of intriguing guest stars over its four-season run; for one, this season saw Days of Our Lives legend Deidre Hall drop in for the show’s soap-opera-themed episode, “Like Chronitons Through the Hourglass.” Now, one of the show’s most beloved guest stars is set to return to the show in the future, as revealed by star Christina Chong at a panel at last weekend’s Tampa Bay Comic Con moderated by Collider’s Maggie Lovitt.
On the series, Chong plays La’an Noonien-Singh, a descendant of genetically-enhanced dictator Khan Noonien-Singh, one of Star Trek‘s most infamous villains. The survivor of a horrific attack by the reptilian Gorn aliens, she now serves as the chief of security aboard the USS Enterprise. The businesslike La’an is quite different from her effervescent portrayer, who managed to get one of her best friends a role on the series. Chong’s beloved dog Runa Ewok, named after the cuddly critters from Return of the Jedi, is officially slated to make a return appearance. Sadly, she couldn’t attend the panel in person, thanks to a customs issue, but her owner was happy to speak on her behalf: “She may or may not be appearing on the show very soon, so keep an eye out for that, in a big way. I’m very excited for you to see that.”
Runa previously appeared on the first-season Strange New Worlds episode “The Elysian Kingdom.” When a powerful entity turns the Enterprise into a storybook kingdom, La’an becomes the kind-hearted Princess Thalia and is never seen without her furry companion. Chong explained how Runa landed that role with the power of social media. “During the first season we had, during the quarantine before the show actually started, I created an Instagram page for her,” Chong explained. “And I had to decide what character she was going to be. I know, she wanted to be an actress, and wants to get an audition for the show, so I started doing her posts like that. If you go to her Instagram, you’ll see, from the beginning, how I was like setting it all up.”
When it came time for her big moment, Chong had some help from castmate Celia Rose Gooding, who plays Uhura, in getting Runa on-screen. She told the audience:
“And then obviously, work colleagues would follow her and look at her page, and they would be like ‘Why don’t you just ask if she can be on the show?’ I’m like, ‘Oh yeah, that’s a good idea, why don’t I just ask?’ And then the script came out for the fantasy episode of Season 1, and I was like ‘Oh my gosh, this is the perfect episode for her, she can be the princess’ dog.’ And so I asked them, and they were like, ‘Is this like a morale thing, or what is this?’ I was like ‘Yeah yeah yeah.’ So this was around Covid, we were all really struggling, and we needed a dog on set. Celia was behind me, and was all ‘Yeah, we all want it, we all want the dog.’ So the next time a draft came out, the dog was in it.”
Surprisingly, there have been several canine guest stars on Star Trek, dating back to The Original Series; in the episode “The Enemy Within,” an alien canine is played by a costumed puppy, complete with a horn on its forehead. Of course, Star Trek‘s most prominent pooch is Porthos, the prized beagle of Captain Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula) on Star Trek: Enterprise. Despite the impracticalities of keeping a dog aboard a spaceship, Porthos (who was played by several different canine thespians) remained at Archer’s side for all four seasons of the series. More recently, Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) owned a dog named Number One after his preferred sobriquet for Will Riker on Star Trek: Picard.
The first eight episodes of Season 4 of Strange New Worlds are now streaming on Paramount+; the season finale is slated to premiere on September 24. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

Cassie and her husband Alex Fine made a rare public appearance together more than a year after testifying at the high-profile trial involving her ex, Sean “Diddy” Combs.
The singer, whose real name is Casandra Ventura, stepped out to support Fine, 33, at the Season 2 premiere of MobLand at Odeon Luxe Leicester Square in London on Thursday, September 10. (Fine plays Donnie in the crime drama, which stars Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren.)
Cassie, 40, stunned in a grey, figure-hugging dress while posing alongside Fine, who opted for an all-black ensemble.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2019, share two daughters, Frankie Stone Fine, 6 and Sunny Cinco Fine, 5, and a son who was born in May 2025 — just weeks after her testimony in the Diddy trial. After the case concluded, Cassie and Fine have mostly kept out of the limelight.
Combs was arrested in September 2024 and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. For four days, a heavily pregnant Cassie testified against Diddy, claiming the rapper physically and sexually abused her throughout their on-again, off-again relationship from 2007 to 2018. (Diddy has denied all the allegations against him.)
Diddy was ultimately found guilty of transportation for prostitution, though he was acquitted of the more severe charges. He was sentenced to four years in federal prison. His legal team has attempted to appeal the conviction.
Fine was by Cassie’s side throughout the legal ordeal. After Cassie’s 20 hours of testimony, Fine supported his wife via a statement read by his attorney Douglas Wigdo outside the courthouse.

“Over the past five days, the world has gotten to witness the strength and bravery of my wife freeing herself of her past,” Fine said in the May 2025 statement. “There has been speculation online surrounding how it must feel for me to sit there and listen to my wife’s testimony.”
Fine continued, “I have felt so many things sitting there. I have felt tremendous pride and overwhelming love for Cass. I have felt profound anger that she has been subjected to sitting in front of a person who tried to break her.”
He did not name Diddy, but Fine’s statement seemingly took aim at the disgraced music mogul rapper and others who tried to harm Cassie: “So to him and all of those who helped him along the way, please know this. You did not. You did not break her spirit, nor her smile, that lights up every room. You did not break the soul of a mother who gives the best hugs and plays the silliest games with our little girls. You did not break the woman who has made me a better man.”
Since the trial, the couple appear to have left the U.S. behind for good. In court documents obtained by Us in June 2026, Cassie declared that she is “not a resident of California.”
The singer now lives “outside of the United States” and does “not intend to move back,” per the docs.
Folks are calling an Ohio waiter a “hero” after a video captured him stopping a man from shooting his ex-wife in a busy restaurant. Tracy Cole Jr. was working in a restaurant in downtown Toledo when he tackled the man in heroic footage.
Heroic footage captured Cole stopping a man as he tried to shoot his ex-wife while she dined at the downtown eatery Sabira, per ABC News4. The drama unfolded on April 11, 2025.
Matthew Exton is seen in the clip pointing a gun at his ex-wife’s head, pulling the trigger. However, the safety was still on, and as he fumbled with the weapon, Cole came to the rescue.
Footage shows Cole walking into the frame as he sees Exton with the gun. Cole immediately ran toward Exton and tackled him from behind. Other people at the table jumped in to assist Cole, and Exton was arrested.
Exton was reportedly drinking at a venue nearby when he witnessed his ex-wife and her family at the downtown restaurant. Before the attempted shooting, Exton allegedly ordered a drink to be sent to her table. He then spat toward the group before leaving.
Furthermore, he returned to the restaurant with a gun and pointed it at his ex-wife, who yelled, “gun,” according to WMGT News.
Exton’s ex-wife’s name is being withheld from reports. However, she made a statement in a protective order, per NBC News.
“The gun made rapid ‘click’ noises as he pulled the trigger,” she reportedly recalled.
Exton reportedly denied trying to shoot his ex-wife.
“I did not fire,” Exton said. “I did not hurt her. I did not try to hurt her.”
Nevertheless, he was found guilty of attempted murder and assault charges. The former attorney is scheduled for sentencing later in September.
Cole told WMGT News what he was thinking in the moment he saw Exton pull the gun’s trigger. Additionally, he added that he does not consider himself a hero, even though he felt his life was in danger when he jumped Exton.
“The only thing that went through my mind was that I’m gonna die,” Cole recalled. “It’s hard when I watch the video, and I see him pull the trigger… It’s just hard to see that and know that it 110% could have gone a completely different way.”
Lucas County Prosecuting Attorney Julia Bates said that Exton tried to publicly execute his ex, per NBC News.
“Nothing in their training and soft openings at the restaurant could have prepared the staff for what walked through that door,” Bates said. “The defendant did not come with the intention of having a meal. He came with anger in him and with the intention to commit a public execution of his ex-wife at the restaurant that day.”
