Sometimes the past hits differently when you’re looking back as adults—and that’s exactly what happened when Keke Palmer and Demi Lovato got real about their teenage relationships. On a recent episode of Keke’s ‘Baby, This is Keke Palmer’ podcast, the two reflected on dating older men as teens, revealing just how much perspective changes with age.

Keke Opens Up About Dating Older Men As A Teen

During this week’s episode, Keke said, “I’m fifteen, why was my boyfriend 20?” as she reflected on her early years in the spotlight, including her time on ‘True Jackson, VP.’ She explained that the dynamics that once seemed normal now feel like exploitation. “The moment when you realize…[men] were taking advantage,” she admitted. As a mom to three-year-old Leo with ex Darius Jackson, Keke also applauded fellow child stars, like Hilary Duff, for using music to highlight similar experiences, noting that songs like Duff’s 2025 hit ‘Mature’ capture the reality many young stars faced while being told they were “mature for [their] age.”

Demi Talks About Her Past And Consent

Lovato, 33, chimed in with her own reflection: “Why was my boyfriend 30?” The singer, who dated Wilmer Valderrama for six years, shared how her experiences as a child actor shaped her maturity and perspective on relationships. Demi Lovato also revealed how she processes these experiences through music, referencing her 2022 release ’29,’ which touches on age gaps and consent: “Far from innocent / what the f–k’s consent? / Numbers told you not to / but that didn’t stop you.” She encouraged Keke to listen, saying the song captures feelings they both can relate to.

Roomies Weigh In

Fans immediately stormed TSR’s Instagram comment section and went off. Some were asking where their mommas were when they were dating older men as teens, while others shared their own age-gap stories from adolescence. A few more chimed in just to celebrate Keke and Demi, saying it’s refreshing to see both women grow and reflect on those past experiences.

One Instagram user @btaylor_tv commented, “I literally can’t stand men“

This Instagram user @_fancyyyy said, “Thank God for growth and accountability!“

And, Instagram user @thejazmynrenae added, “Keke said ‘girlll.. DAMNN’ she was like now wait a damn minute I said 20🤣”

Meanwhile, Instagram user @lulu_la_veganbod shared, “The 90’s & 00’s were different. We know better now“

While Instagram user @tynicolle wrote, “Where was yall mommas omg!“

Lastly, Instagram user @thebitchtheylovetohate said, “Why was mine older than my dad 😭”

With a face you can trust, it’s no wonder that Stephen Graham is so frequently cast as a good guy. Most recently, our hearts broke for his character in Adolescence — the award-winning drama the actor co-created alongside Jack Thorne — when he played a father struggling to handle the fallout of his teenage son’s criminal behavior. But his upcoming performance in Jan Komasa’s Heel will use his disarming appearance against audiences as it places him in his most depraved and villainous role yet. Today, as part of Collider’s Exclusive Preview event, we’ve got a new look at the film, which sees Graham star opposite MobLand favorite, Anson Boon.

Showcasing the incredibly unhinged and abusive dynamic between its main characters, our still from Heel sees Graham’s Chris standing under a ladder and next to Boon’s Tommy. On paper, the scene sounds rather tame, with family man Chris wearing a button-up shirt and glasses and appearing to be in the midst of getting some home repairs done. However, it’s through Tommy that the alarm bells immediately begin sounding off, as the young man stands in a bathrobe with a chain connecting his wrists to his neck. In his hands, he holds an overflowing bowl of popcorn, which — again out of context — seemingly points to all the makings of a cozy night in with the family.

In Heel, a married couple abducts a troubled teenager in an attempt to break him free from his past misdoings and set him on the straight and narrow. As the young man begins to give in to the twisted lessons and leans into his correctional teachings, the couple thinks they’ve saved a life, but is he really part of the family, or is it all for show? Joining Graham and Boon in the dark thriller is an ensemble that also includes Andrea Riseborough (Oblivion), Austin Haynes (Adolescence), Kit Rakusen (The Phoenician Scheme), Monika Frajczyk (Green Border), and Savannah Steyn (Intergalactic).

What’s Next for Stephen Graham?

In addition to Heel, Graham has plenty of other irons in the fire with a multitude of other feature-length projects headed to audiences in the near future. He recently celebrated the world premiere of his drama flick, Animol, from Ashley Walters, while he’ll soon reprise his role as Hayden Stagg in Steven Knight and Netflix’s Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man. Additionally, the Boiling Point alum will also add his name to the call sheet for Florian Zeller’s psychological thriller, Bunker, and Aaron Schneider’s Greyhound 2.

Check out our exclusive new look at Heel and stay tuned for more to come from Collider’s Exclusive Preview event.

Billy Porter Had Sepsis

The Actor Had To Exit His Broadway Show

Billy Porter Says He Was ‘Dead’ For Three Days

The Actor Updated Fans In December

The film world is being taken over by streaming platforms used worldwide, and with it comes a great new addition of miniseries. Great stories that have dynamic plots, fleshed-out characters, and gorgeous scriptwriting are boiled down into just a few episodes for audiences to enjoy all in one go. Without the need for long-term commitment to multiple seasons and episodes, miniseries are targeted for those who need something to binge.

Within the world of miniseries are some of the best works of the thriller genre that TV has to offer. The best limited series streaming right now include some fantastic thrillers from recent years, whether that be thrillers with undertones of horror or drama, they have it all. The best thriller miniseries to binge will keep audiences on the edge of their seats, but not for too long.

‘Secret Invasion’ (2023)

Shape-shifting Skrulls are hatching a plan to take over the world in the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe series, Secret Invasion. In the miniseries, Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) returns to earth after learning of the potential invasion that could lead to the end of humanity, but his post-Blip version can’t seem to keep up with the barrage of threats.

As a spy thriller series, Secret Invasion does a great job of keeping audiences guessing and building a tense atmosphere. That said, it hasn’t managed to impress fans and critics alike with its dull storytelling, which hasn’t earned it a spot among the best MCU shows released in recent years. Ending not with a bang but a whimper, Secret Invasion won’t appeal much to non-Marvel fans, as even the most hardcore followers of the franchise may find it disappointing.

29

‘The Clearing’ (2023)

Image via Hulu

The Clearing is a chilling psychological thriller inspired by a true story of a female-led cult. It draws from J.P. Pomare‘s book In The Clearing to tell its tale of a woman who must confront her past to stop a cult from kidnapping more kids in the not-so-distant future.

The Clearing boldly depicts the Australian New Age group known as The Family and explores the kind of long-lasting psychological effects it has on its members. While the pacing may be too slow for some, those who enjoy piecing together an intriguing mystery will find themselves coming back for more. It’s one of the best modern Australian TV shows worth watching today, with the fact that it draws from a real-life cult making it even more gripping.

‘Pieces of Her’ (2022)

Image via Netflix

Based on Karin Slaughter’s novel of the same name, Pieces of Her follows Andrea “Andy” Oliver (Bella Heathcote), a 30-year-old 911 responder, and her mother, Laura (Toni Collette), who get caught in a violent shooting at a local diner, where Laura skillfully eliminates the shooter. As Andy tries to dig deeper into her seemingly simple mother’s actions, Laura’s past begins to come to light, and Andy is forced to escape while piecing together her mother’s dark past.

Pieces of Her shines mostly in Toni Collette’s fascinating performance as a cancer survivor and speech therapist, but who holds a long, dangerous history. Andy’s desperation to seek the truth about her mother is well reflected in Heathcote’s delivery, even if her character falls short in further development. However, the show’s narrative has well-executed, shocking twists that drive enough suspense and drama. Overall, Pieces of Her is a fine enough thriller miniseries to binge. —Maddie P

‘Behind Her Eyes’ (2021)

Image via Netflix

A show that puts the “thrill” in “thriller” features Louise (Simona Brown), a divorced single mother who works as a secretary. One night she meets David (Tom Bateman), a man with whom she begins an affair. It just so happens that he is her new boss in the office. As they fall for each other, fate brings Louise’s path in connection to David’s wife, Adele (Eve Hewson). Louise is faced with many new twists and must find what is hidden behind David and Adele’s relationship.

Within this six-part show based on the eponymous 2017 novel by Sarah Pinborough, viewers’ minds are never at rest. It has you thinking about what the twisted love triangle could be hiding the entire time. With twists and mysteries you won’t see coming, Behind Her Eyes is a prime example of a psychological thriller series at its best.

26

‘The Crowded Room’ (2023)

Image via Apple TV+

Set in 1979 and inspired by Daniel Keyes‘ 1981 non-fiction novel The Minds of Billy Milligan, The Crowded Room tells the story of Danny Sullivan (Tom Holland), who is arrested following his alleged role in a New York City shooting. The series depicts his interrogations conducted by Rya Goodwin (Amanda Seyfried), whose questions soon begin to unravel Danny’s mysterious and troubled past.

Holland’s raw and evocative performance makes the Apple TV+ series a must-see for fans of the actor, who stands out in this refreshingly different role. While the miniseries has been criticized for being somewhat repetitive, fans of slower-paced stories and complex character studies mixed with true crime will likely find it worth watching.

25

‘The Cry’ (2018)

The disappearance of a newborn from a small Australian seaside town serves as the starting point for an investigation into the crumbling psychology of a young couple as they cope with an unimaginable catastrophe both in the open eye of the public and behind closed doors.

Nominated for an International Emmy for Best Actress, Jenna Coleman leads The Cry with her character of devastated mother Joanna. Coleman’s portrayal of grief over a lost child is a wonder to behold. As you watch the three-part series adapted from the eponymous 2013 by Helen FitzGerald, you feel pity, hatred, and justice. It’s all cleverly played out in this engrossing show about dealing with grief, with its overarching narrative of the ongoing investigation entertaining any thriller fan.

24

‘Love & Death’ (2023)

Based on the true story of a housewife from Wylie, Texas named Candy Montgomery, Love & Death is a popular miniseries on Max. It portrays Candy’s (played by Elizabeth Olsen) seemingly mundane experiences as a housewife during the 1970s, which soon take a dark turn after an affair with her neighbor becomes deadly.

Much can be said about the stellar casting, suspenseful atmosphere, and well-written lines in the series, but it’s Elizabeth Olsen’s outstanding performance in Love & Death that makes it truly incredible. She somehow breathes humanity into the twisted character, making it impossible to turn away as Candy’s life begins to unravel. The show’s story overall is well-crafted, with Love & Death succeeding in its portrayal of the gruesome case and ensuing media circus.

23

‘The Undoing’ (2020)

Image via HBO

The HBO original miniseries reunites creator David E. Kelley and star Nicole Kidman from Big Little Lies, launching another intense mystery psychological thriller. Based on Jean Hanff Korelitz’s novel, You Should Have Known, The Undoing follows Grace Fraser (Kidman), a wealthy New York therapist, whose life is upended when her oncologist husband, Jonathan (Hugh Grant), is accused of a brutal murder. As the investigation proceeds, the family has shocking revelations about Jonathan, unraveling her seemingly perfect life.

The Undoing is a remarkable, contemporary take on a classic whodunnit trope, with strong psychosexual and psychosocial elements in its narrative, which brings out unexpected plot twists. Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant’s performances are the biggest highlights of the show, with strong supporting performances by Donald Sutherland, Edgar Ramirez, and Noma Dumezweni. Exploring themes of class privilege, deception, and the fragility of trust, The Undoing makes for a gripping mystery drama. —Maddie P

22

‘Ripley’ (2024)

Ripley is a neo-noir odyssey based on Patricia Highsmith‘s gripping novel that explores the psyche and brilliance of a conman. Lured by a shipping magnate’s offer, Tom Ripley (Andrew Scott) embarks on a mission to Italy, tasked with retrieving the magnate’s wayward son. But Ripley’s intentions are far from pure. Captivated by the son’s opulent lifestyle and a mysterious woman named Marge Sherwood (Dakota Fanning), Ripley’s descent into moral ambiguity is as captivating as it is chilling.

Directed and written by Steven Zaillian, the miniseries undoubtedly captures the essence of Highsmith’s novel. Ripley takes its time as it dives deep into the characters’ psychology, building suspense with each written scene. But it’s the stunning black-and-white that takes the experience to the next level, as light and shadow are used to amplify the moral ambiguity around Ripley’s character. It’ll surely leave viewers questioning who, if anyone, can be trusted.

21

‘The Sympathizer’ (2024)

Image via HBO

HBO’s new thriller show The Sympathizer offers a unique perspective on the aftermath of the Vietnam War. The story follows The Captain (Hoa Xuande), a half-French, half-Vietnamese communist spy. After years within the South Vietnamese army, the Captain became a refugee in Los Angeles after the fall of Saigon in 1975. While grappling with cultural adjustment alongside his General and fellow refugees, the Captain remains a sleeper agent, relaying information back to his communist handlers.

His relationships with fellow spy Bon (Fred Nguyen Khan) and captivating professor Sofia Mori (Sandra Oh) threaten to expose his carefully constructed world. Praised for its bold storytelling and satirical edge, The Sympathizer offers a fresh take on the legacy of the Vietnam War. The show’s delicate and nuanced portrayal of the Captain’s dual life was also praised, which was further elevated by Xuande’s captivating performance. It’s a thrilling show that acts as a commentary on American perspectives of the war and the Vietnamese refugee experience.

Editor’s note: The following contains spoilers for Tracker Season 3 Episode 10.With Tracker‘s long-anticipated return in “The Fallout,” the midseason premiere concludes the tale that started a few months ago, before the network hit went on hiatus. The two-parter delves into a complicated conspiracy that involves dirty cops, mafia money, and love-lorn hitmen, all culminating in a climax that Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley) barely gets out of alive. It’s a thrilling change of pace for the popular CBS drama, one that proves the two-part story structure ought to become commonplace.

‘Tracker’ Season 3 Has Proven That Occasional Two-Parters Work Like Gold

After barely surviving the gunshot and car wreck from “Good Trouble,” Colter teams up with Billie Matalon (Sofia Pernas) in “The Fallout” to uncover the truth about those trying to cover up a Tacoma-based task force that went rogue — naturally, the whole thing goes all the way to the top. While Tracker has certainly leaned into the art of the standalone, case-of-the-week style episodes that thrive best on network television (in fact, it’s one of the best things about the show), this two-parter, not unlike the season premiere, proves that the show has the chance to get even better with extended stories like these.

Combined, these two installments equal the runtime of a 90-minute action movie, and that style works wonders on a show like Tracker, which frankly could even lean into the action a bit more. The two-part structure allows viewers to better invest in the show’s supporting characters (especially newcomers) and makes the plot more believable. We see this especially in the case of the two-part Season 3 premiere, which needed a double-feature to unpack the complexity of “The Process” plotline. In truth, it could have easily extended beyond just two episodes.

It’s no secret that some episodes of Tracker can feel like a bit of a stretch at times. When things wrap up so easily without any major consequences, it breaks the immersive experience and risks coming off a bit contrived. Part of that could be that certain plotlines are underdeveloped, so Randy (Chris Lee) has to come in at the eleventh hour to connect the final dots and send Colter to the inevitable showdown. While there are certainly times when this works, relying too much on thin evidence and guesswork could easily become a crutch. However, by extending more episodes into two-part adventures, Tracker can raise the stakes, introduce more complex or recurring characters, and tell more engaging stories that don’t feel like we’re only skimming the surface of their narrative potential. Season 2’s “Ontological Shock” comes to mind, as Colter and Russell’s (Jensen Ackles) investigation into a government conspiracy potentially involving UFOs easily deserved more time to unpack — especially given the government’s ties to their father.

‘Tracker’ Should Deviate From the Typical Standalone Format From Time to Time

Two-part episodes also give the audience more time with fan favorites like Russell Shaw and John Keaton (Brent Sexton). They can rip the audience out of their false sense of network TV security by tossing these characters into more imminent danger, resulting in powerful cliffhangers and dangerous enemies that may hold more personal grudges — no wonder we were worried that Tracker was about to kill off Keaton. While small recurring plotlines like “The Teacher” arc in Season 2 are great ways to thread together narrative interest and tension, straight-up multipart episodes are better because they don’t rely on “end of episode” revelations, but give the characters time to flesh out the latest mystery on-screen.

Of course, we’re not saying that Tracker should solely rely on the two-part formula. Again, one of the best things about the show is that it isn’t heavily serialized. In many ways, it’s a time capsule of what episodic network television could be, and as the show keeps getting better, it only further encourages us that the standalone (or “filler”) episode may not be a lost art the way many of us feared. But if Season 3 has proven anything so far, it’s that this show has the ability to dive into these more detailed stories and pay them off in earnest (in some ways, echoing the more detailed nature of the books themselves). In the end, extending episodes to two (or even three if Tracker were bold enough) parts without serializing the production at large is a great way to push the boundaries of network television. That’s something we can certainly get behind.

Tracker airs Sundays on CBS and is available the next day for streaming on Paramount+.

It’s not always the case that a great novel is easily adapted to the screen, as certain stories have components that simply work better on the page than they do when visualized. Considering that the novel that it was based on won the Pulitzer Prize for literature, All the Light We Cannot See was a highly-anticipated adaptation about a powerful World War II story that examined the importance of memory, art, and resistance. Although it looks beautiful and features a tremendous score by James Newton Howard, the Netflix adaptation of All the Light We Cannot See was ultimately a disappointment, as director Shawn Levy didn’t feel like the right choice to tell such a thorny, weighty story that deals with such an ugly period in history. It’s an adaptation that’s worth watching because of the ambition involved, but it’s especially because of the amazing performance by Mark Ruffalo that makes the series far more emotionally and powerful than it would’ve been with another actor in the role.

Set during the height of World War II, All the Light We Cannot See stars Ruffalo as Daniel LeBlanc, a locksmith at the National Museum of History in Paris who, unbeknownst to his daughter Marie-Laure (Aria Mia Loberti), is secretly working with the resistance to smuggle valuable artifacts so that they are not intercepted by the Nazis. The story is told in a bifurcated manner; while half of the series follows Marie-Laure when she forms a connection with the German officer Werner Pfennig (Louis Hofmann), the more compelling part of the show follows Daniel’s attempts to avoid persecution as the military invasion of France becomes more violent. Even if they’re separated for a majority of the series, the connection between Marie-Laure and her father is the most powerful aspect of All the Light We Cannot See.

Mark Ruffalo Is the Best Part of ‘All the Light We Cannot See’

All the Light We Cannot See earned praise for casting a blind actress in the role of Marie-Laure, which was both an important piece of representation and the best way to make the performance feel authentic. All the Light We Cannot See would only work as a spotlight for Loberti if there was an equally gracious actor in the role of her father, and Ruffalo has always had a talent for playing key supporting roles without detracting from his co-stars. While Daniel is an admirer of art, often thought to be a visual medium, the efforts he takes to find ways for Marie-Laure to share his passion are truly heartwarming and incredibly tender.

Even though All the Light We Cannot See takes place during a monumental world event that shook the landscape of European politics, Ruffalo was able to highlight an understated side of heroism revolving around the preservation of cultural history. The desire to ensure that the treasures of the past are not corrupted is not a result of materialism, but a desire to ensure that a people’s history can be remembered in their own words by its artists. Daniel is not someone of high stature within the museum, but the responsibility that he puts on his shoulders is tremendous. At the same time, Ruffalo shows how Daniel justifies the sacrifice he is willing to make; even if it means never seeing his daughter again, Daniel wants to embark on a mission that will ensure the sanctity of the nation’s future, which he hopes Marie-Laure will be able to grow up peacefully within.

‘All the Light We Cannot See’ Works Best as a Father-Daughter Story

The detracting aspects of All the Light We Cannot See come down to Levy’s direction, which tends to be a bit too overly sentimental. However, Ruffalo is able to bring the appropriate grittiness to Daniel’s survival mission, particularly when he is abducted and questioned by the sadistic SS officer Reinhold von Rumpel (Lars Eidinger). Eidinger gives a terrifying performance as a villain who lacks all sense of empathy, and Ruffalo conveys a sense of genuine fear that helps to make the series feel less idealized. Even if Daniel has not given up his conviction that what he is doing is right, that doesn’t make it any less horrifying for a civilian to face the rage of a cruel fascist who would strip his dignity away just for the sick pleasure of feeling empowered.

Levy may be a director who literalizes story components that are best left unspoken, but the notion that Marie-Laure has come to adopt her father’s perspective is well-realized thanks to the strength of both performances. It’s within Marie-Laure’s search for the mysterious “Sea of Flames” that she discovers the same drive that her father has, which leads her to begin mirroring his behavior. The connection is so strong that Daniel’s sacrifice, while tragic, isn’t entirely depressing because his spirit lived on within his daughter. While a great actor can always deliver when the material is there to support them, Ruffalo is the type of special performer who can elevate whatever he is in to be even greater quality.
