In the 2025 groundbreaking one-shot series Adolescence, Netflix subscribers understood just how talented Stepen Graham is. Playing a dad whose teenage son is accused of murder, Graham gave one of the most powerful and raw performances the streaming giant has ever seen. For the role, Graham went on to win his first Golden Globe, Critics Choice and three Emmy Awards. But while his acting in the series is one for the books, there’s another series of his on Netflix worth watching too.

On October 19, 2023, Netflix released Bodies, a sci-fi murder-mystery thriller packed with time-travel that is as riveting as it is rich and complex. In each timeline the series explores, Graham emerges as a mysterious and all-knowing character, one that soon becomes the prime suspect in multiple timeframes. Graham’s wicked performance, coupled with incredible writing and a talented cast, make the series not only a must-watch, but one of Netflix’s best shows to date.

What Is ‘Bodies’ About?

Based on the DC Vertigo graphic novel, Bodies follows four detectives in separate eras as they investigate the same man’s body after they’re all found in the same spot in London. Alfred Hillinghead (Andor’s Kyle Soller) investigates in the late Victorian era of 1890, Charles Whiteman (The Queen’s Gambit’s Jacob Fortune-Lloyd) works to solve the mystery during World War II in 1941, Shahara Hasan (Amaka Okafor) works the case in the 2023 present, and Iris Maplewood (Shira Haas) is assigned to the case in a dystopian future in 2053. Shahara is the first detective to find the otherworldly connection between the cases, and quickly realizes that the secret to getting the mystery solved is to find ways to communicate across time.

The series then jumps across four time periods and sees each of the detectives attempting to solve the same murder to varying degrees of success. So, in addition to exploring the sci-fi element of time-travel and defying the laws of space and time, the series is also a heavy and addictive whodunit, with hundreds of rabbit holes and shady suspects. Speaking of, Graham plays the formidable villain Elias Mannix in each of the timelines. In the Victorian era, Elias goes by Jullian Harker, a wealthy man whose mother holds seances. In the dystopian future, he leads the group ruling Britain. In 2023, he’s a troubled teen played by Gabriel Howell. With all that said, Bodies reaches a rare feat by perfectly balancing multiple genres as a murder mystery, period piece, and family drama all rolled into one.

‘Bodies’ Uses Separate Timeframes to Explore Prejudice and Oppression

While the synopsis alone might have viewers eager to press play, Bodies‘ relevance only increases when looking at the detective’s personal lives too. Like any good detective show, the series is about much more than the case at hand, and explores the detective behind it too. And, this time around, there are four detectives to dive into.

With each of the characters, Bodies highlights an oppressed minority of the time. Hillinghead is a closeted gay man fearful of the prejudice around him, Whiteman is a Jewish man hiding his true background during World War II, Hasan is a Muslim woman dealing with the xenophobia of current-day England, and Maplewood lives in a tyrannical future. Despite having such different backgrounds, the show uses a sci-fi premise to portray oppression in multiple ways, showing not only how harmful hate can be in its many forms, but how different people can respond and retaliate at the center of it.

With a sci-fi time-travel element, and a mysterious and mind-bending whodunit driving the story, Bodies is one of Netflix’s most interesting and experimental shows. By blending so many genres into one, while still exploring the heartfelt and emotional personal lives of the four detectives, the eight-episode miniseries sets itself apart and becomes one of Netflix’s most underappreciated titles. At its heart, the series is all about using empathy and connection to get to the bottom of the truth, and viewers are at the edge of their seats throughout the journey to find it.

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Mikayla Matthews appears to be addressing the drama surrounding one of MomTok’s biggest members.

After news broke that production on season 5 of the hit Hulu reality show has been paused following a domestic assault investigation into costar Taylor Frankie Paul, Mikayla seemingly acknowledged the headlines in a social media post.

It all began when Mikayla joined Mayci Neeley to address recent online rumors that the pair are dating.

“Honestly one of the better rumors I’ve heard about myself the last couple days lol😚🥰😏,” Mikayla wrote via Instagram on Monday, May 16. Mayci added, “Who said it was a rumor👀.”

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jessi Ngatikaura is weighing in on the news that production has paused on season 5 amid Taylor Frankie Paul’s legal drama with ex Dakota Mortensen. TMZ and People reported on Monday, March 16, that producers behind the hit Hulu reality show stopped filming earlier this month following an alleged […]

Mayci’s own husband, Jacob Neeley, decided to join in on the chatter by commenting, “I don’t think MomTok would survive this type of scandal.”

Mikayla, however, had a different point of view.

“@jacob.neeley I think it’s the only redemption for MomTok right now,” she replied.

The comments come after news broke of an alleged domestic dispute between Taylor and her on-again, off-again partner, Dakota Mortensen. A Draper City Police Department spokesperson confirmed to Us Weekly on Monday that a “domestic assault investigation” involving the former couple is ongoing.

A source also exclusively shared with Us that the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast is “honestly terrified to film with Taylor right now” and revealed that the women “have made it clear they don’t want to be around her because they see her as a major liability.”

Although the insider noted that prior to the incident, the cast “believed Taylor was in a better place” after she filmed her season of The Bachelorette, the reality star’s latest incident has raised some concern in the MomTok circle.

“Now, many of them feel they’ve moved past the point of dealing with this kind of behavior and simply don’t want to be put in that position again,” the source claimed.

Despite Taylor and Dakota’s drama, much of the cast is trying to move forward and continue to document the realities of their lives.

In her latest video, Mikayla asked Mayci to join in and mouth along to a sound from an episode of South Park that sees character Kyle Broflovski asking Eric Cartman, “What the hell are you doing going around telling people that we are a gay couple?”

After seeing the clip, costar Chase McWhorter commented, “MomTok Heated Rivalry would break the internet.”

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are taking parenting a notch higher, shedding light on a unique rule in their home.

The couple’s parenting style may not come as a surprise, as they gave insight into shared principles they actively put in place to keep their family life grounded.

While the Pratt household appears to be thriving beautifully, his career, however, does not seem to be faring as well. 

Chris Pratt Reveals The Movie Rule That Exists In Their Home

Movies are widely accessible to many, but that is not the case for Pratt and Schwarzenegger’s children, as they shared per E! Online.

The “Parks and Recreation” alum revealed that not only have he and his wife’s children, Lyla, 5, Eloise, 3, and Ford, 16 months, never watched his movies, but they have never watched any films at all.

“My 5-year-old, my 3-year-old, and my 1-year-old have never seen movies,” he detailed, describing his wife as old-school. “Katherine is very old-school when it comes to screens and technology and all of that stuff. So, we’re waiting.”

However, the actor, also a father to 13-year-old son Jack with ex-wife Anna Faris, is looking forward to the day his younger children finally watch his films. 

“There’s gonna be a season, they’re gonna realize their dad is really cool,” he teased. “They haven’t realized it yet, but one day.”

He added that his teenage son already sees him that way. “My 13-year-old, I took him to a screening of the first movie,” he said of his animated film “The Super Mario Bros. Movie.” “He thinks it’s pretty cool.”

Chris Pratt Attributes Faith Journey To His Son

Although Pratt grew up with a strong understanding of faith due to his Catholic background, his beliefs wavered over time.

As reported by The Blast, after rediscovering his faith, Pratt admitted he struggled internally, caught in cycles of sin and forgiveness. This continued until the birth of his son, who was reportedly born nine weeks prematurely in 2012 and spent a month in intensive care.

“Then, when my son Jack was fighting for his life, I found myself back on my knees, pleading to God for a miracle. I promised that if Jack survived, I would devote my life to sharing God’s message. This time I meant it.”

The actor noted that since his family made it through that difficult period, each day has given him a renewed opportunity to thank God for his family and children.

Katherine Schwarzenegger Turns To Therapy To Embrace Parenting Role

Schwarzenegger did not simply step into parenting; she took intentional steps to ensure she approached the role with care and awareness.

As reported by The Blast, she prepared for her new responsibilities, not only as Pratt’s wife but also as a stepmother, by consulting a step-parenting therapist shortly after their engagement, fully aware of the role she was stepping into.

“And it’s been incredibly helpful for me and also just understanding my role as a step-parent,” the author shared, reflecting on her co-parenting dynamic with her husband’s ex.

She admitted that while her ego occasionally surfaces, she has learned to manage it, recognizing that the focus should remain on the child rather than herself.

Chris Pratt And Katherine Schwarzenegger Speak About Marriage Counseling

The couple’s intentional approach to parenting comes as no surprise, as they have previously spoken about the foundational steps they took before marriage.

Per The Blast, the “Jurassic World” star revealed that premarital counseling played a significant role in strengthening their relationship before it began.

“We did like six sessions with this guy who was, by the way, the best thing in the world.” She noted
“If you’re somebody who’s thinking of getting married, you should definitely follow this,” he continued, giving insights into the questions counseling forces one to sit with. 

Chris Pratt Panics Over Career Update

While his family life continues to flourish, the same cannot be said for his career at the moment. His recent movie, “Mercy,” has received negative reviews and performed poorly at the box office since its release this month.

Per The Blast, an insider revealed, “Chris is panicking. Full stop.” Elaborating further, they added, “This is the first time he’s really feeling his age in Hollywood, and it’s shaken him.”

They also noted that prior to “Mercy,” Pratt had starred in several blockbuster franchises that were expected to succeed. Without that strong backing, he is now reportedly confronting the possibility that he may not be as untouchable as he once believed.

Cruz Beckham, the third child of David and Victoria Beckham, is drawing attention for his new song, as listeners focus on its emotional lyrics. Many believe the singer wrote “Loneliest Boy” with his eldest brother, Brooklyn, in mind, seemingly hinting at his estrangement from the family.

This comes months after Brooklyn distanced himself from the rest of the Beckhams, blocking any communication with them after a lengthy post on Instagram alleging his parents had been controlling his life.

Is ‘Loneliest Boy’ About Brooklyn Beckham?

Cruz is on tour in the UK, and he has been performing an unreleased song titled “Loneliest Boy,” which seems to be about Brooklyn. The singer posted a short clip on social media on March 16, showing him singing the somber song and playing the guitar.

“Loneliest boy, mama don’t talk too much / It’s breaking her heart / It shows in the small things that you don’t do,” Cruz sang. In another part of the song, the lyrics talk about the loneliest boy always finding “something bad in somebody good.”

“Loneliest boy, I hope that you’re listening / Don’t push all your friends away, when we’re tryna show you love,” Cruz crooned.

Many fans loved the song, while others simply reacted with a crying face emoji, moved by the emotion behind the lyrics. One commented, “Awww, those words cut deep, it’s a beautiful song,” while one wrote, “Tell who hes addressing song to [sic].”

Cruz Beckham Defended His Parents

In December 2025, several outlets reported that David and Victoria unfollowed Brooklyn on Instagram amid their ongoing family feud. Cruz cleared the air and defended his parents by posting a screenshot of Daily Mail’s headline writing, “NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son.. Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I.

In mid-January, Brooklyn released a lengthy statement on Instagram Stories, airing out his grievances toward his parents and claiming they “controlled” his life. He also alleged that his family “consistently disrespected” his wife, Nikola Peltz. “I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he said toward the end of the post.

Cruz Beckham’s Cooking Video

In March, Cruz uploaded a cooking video on TikTok, where he made potato soup with cheese and bacon bits. “wanna see the best cooking video ever? don’t watch this then,” he captioned the post.

It was an innocent post, but fans were quick to point out that it may have been a dig at Brooklyn, who is passionate about cooking and often posts cooking videos on his social media. Cruz also posted the video on Instagram, tagging the Beckhams’ long-time family friend and celebrated chef, Gordon Ramsay, telling him to “watch out!”

As previously reported by The Blast, Ramsay shared his opinions on the rift between the Beckhams and offered Brooklyn some advice. At that time, the chef was still in contact with Brooklyn. Days later, however, Brooklyn also blocked Ramsay and his kids on social media.

Brooklyn Beckham Has Been Ignoring His Parents

David and Victoria seemingly want to bury the hatchet and reconcile with their eldest son. On March 4, Brooklyn celebrated his 27th birthday, and his parents greeted him on social media, posting Instagram Stories with sweet photos of Brooklyn during happier times with them. The couple expressed their love for Brooklyn and greeted him a happy birthday. Brooklyn didn’t respond to the post.

On March 15, it was Mother’s Day in the UK, and again, Brooklyn failed to greet Victoria. He did, however, greet his mother-in-law the day before, which also happened to be her birthday. “Happy birthday to the best mother in law x love u so much and hope u had the most amazing day,” he wrote.

Cruz Beckahm Hopes For A Reconciliation With Brooklyn

In an article with a video published on March 17, HELLO! caught up with Cruz as he was walking down the street and asked him whether he had spoken to Brooklyn amid the ongoing tensions in their family. Cruz kept his head down while walking, seemingly ignoring the question.

He was then asked whether he was hoping to repair their relationship. After a few strides, he looked up and said, “Hope to.”

Cruz is in the middle of his “mini tour” and will be heading to Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, and London for the rest of March.

Generations of sci-fi fans waited for Dune to finally be recognized as one of the greatest sci-fi epics in history. Frank Herbert’s grand vision was deemed unfilmable, unadaptable, and incomprehensible for the average movie-goer. That’s why the reveal of Dune: Part Three is so stunning. The story of the second novel, Dune Messiah, is coming to theaters. It’s being marketed as the conclusion of the Dune trilogy, which is odd, as in the books, it’s the end of the prologue to the real story yet to come. 

Dune: Part Three Brings Dune Messiah To Life

After the events of Dune: Part Two, Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) is seen in the teaser trailer as the leader of the Fremen, accepting his role as their Messiah, the Muad’Dib, while his lover Chani (Zendaya) appears to be pregnant. The teaser doesn’t reveal if it’s a boy or a girl, but what the brief two minutes and 30 seconds of footage does reveal is Paul’s doubts about being the Messiah. In the best line of the teaser, his mother, Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) reminds Paul that his father “didn’t start any wars.” 

Dune: Part Three is again going to be full of amazing special effects, gorgeous shots of Arakkis, and even more all-out wars between the Fremen and everyone who wants them dead. Which, as it turns out, is everyone else. Towards the end of the trailer, we hear Paul say he’s not afraid to die, not yet, as what looks like the biggest explosion yet goes off right in front of him. 

A Darker Story Than It Looks

Those who have read the books are excited that Dune: Part Three looks, amazingly, to contain the major plot beats of the novel. If Denis Villeneuve and Brian K. Vaughn’s script sticks to Frank Herbert’s masterpiece, this is going to be a dark, but very satisfying movie that’s not going to go the way fans of the films will expect. The trailer looks like it’s front-loading the battle scenes, but as with every Dune film, it’s the political intrigue and philosophical discussion that’s going to eat up most of the running time. 

Joining the cast for Dune: Part Three is Robert Pattinson, as the Tleilaxu Face Dancer, Scytale, another role that’s going to remind people that playing Edward in Twilight was the odd role out for one of Hollywood’s strangest leading men. The returning Florence Pugh, as Paul’s wife Irulan, and Anna Taylor-Joy as his sister, Alia, will get substantially more to do in the third movie. Jason Momoa, who brings to life Duncan Idaho, will also get a lot more screen time now that he’s overcome the small problem of being dead. 

The Last Dune Movie Because Studios Are Cowards

There’s a lot to unpack in just over two minutes of footage, and book readers can already pick out key scenes that have made the jump to the big screen, but it’s the marketing for Dune: Part Three that’s revealing a whole lot. We knew Denis Villeneuve was only to make three movies, but again, the original series is six novels, with Dune and Dune Messiah becoming mere footnotes by the time of the fourth novel, God-Emperor of Dune. No studio will ever adapt that particular novel about a human/sandworm hybrid galactic tyrant ruling for thousands of years as he brings humanity to his grand vision, “The Golden Path.” 

All of that is to say that Dune: Part Three, referred to as the end of the trilogy, is going to be as far as Hollywood goes into Frank Herbert’s universe. This is the final time we’ll get to see Villeneuve’s vision for Arakkis, and in a landscape devoid of smart sci-fi, it might be the last great sci-fi blockbuster of this decade.

Jennifer Aniston‘s beauty routine may be famously low-maintenance, but it’s clearly effective. Her lips always look naturally smooth and hydrated, no matter the occasion. According to the actress, it all comes down to a moisturizing lip balm she refuses to skip.

In a “What’s Really in Her Beauty Bag” video with Harper’s Bazaar UK, the Friends star revealed she uses the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Balm. She shared that a makeup artist introduced her to the Eight Hour Cream in the late ’90s, and she became “addicted to it.” These days, she takes the lip balm version with her “everywhere.”

Get the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Balm for just $38 at Amazon! Please note, prices are accurate at the date of publication but are subject to change.

Created with the brand’s iconic Eight Hour Cream base, the lip balm is formulated with shea butter, coconut oil and vitamin E. The nourishing ingredients hydrate all day, relieve chapping and soften lips. That level of hydration alone explains why it’s stayed in her beauty bag for decades.

When it comes to airport style, Gisele Bündchen has quietly mastered the art of the perfect carry-all. The supermodel was spotted traveling with a $4,500 Chanel tote that struck the ideal balance between oversized and elegant. And no, you don’t need a runway budget to channel the look — Amazon has an almost-identical option for […]

There’s more to love beyond hydration. It includes SPF 15, likely something she appreciates for helping her lips stay protected in the California sun. The balm also doubles as a primer, creating a smooth base for lip liner, lipstick, gloss and more.

Aniston’s not the only fan! The lip balm has earned more than 3,200 five-star ratings on Amazon. One user, who’s tried pricier brands like “Dior and Chanel,” said this is “one that works.”

Another shopper labeled it “a must” in their makeup bag, noting that it “heals lips” when worn “overnight.” They also emphasized it helps “heal cuts faster” and is effective for “dry cuticles.”

For anyone reassessing their everyday lip care, this Eight Hour Cream Lip Balm offers more than just moisture. At $38, it may cost more than the average balm, but its versatility makes it feel like a worthwhile investment rather than a splurge — especially when it’s a longtime staple in Aniston’s routine. Once it’s in rotation, it’s easy to see why it’s earned lasting loyalty.
