Landman has gone through some surprise onscreen losses — but could Billy Bob Thornton‘s Tommy be next?

“I think Yana Grebenyuk Taylor [Sheridan] is going to let me hang around,” Thornton, 70, exclusively told Us Weekly while attending the Newport Beach TV Fest sponsored by Visit Newport Beach on Saturday, June 6, hinting that his character won’t be killed off just yet.

Thornton’s insight comes after season 1 of the hit Paramount+ series concluded with Monty (Jon Hamm) dying after suffering numerous strokes. The death shocked viewers, considering Hamm’s status as a main cast member. In season 2, Thornton’s character took over Monty’s role at the oil tycoon’s company M-Tex.

Tommy has since branched out from M-Tex, but he is once again at the center of the business, which has made some fans worry that it could cause health issues down the line. While the audience can breathe easy about Tommy’s faith for now, season 2 left a lot of unanswered questions.

Taylor Sheridan‘s hit series Landman was renewed for season 3 — but which stars are and aren’t returning after that shocking firing? Inspired by the “Boomtown” podcast series, Landman is focused on the West Texas oil industry with a specific focus on crisis executive Tommy Norris and his family. The Paramount+ show, which premiered in […]

Both Ali Larter and Andy Garcia revealed to Us that they were in the dark about what is still to come.

“I really can’t even assume or try to guess what Taylor is going to imagine for season 3,” Larter, 50, shared at the event. “One thing I know is that to be able to get this far into our story lines, we all know each other. So the characters really understand what their dynamics are.”

Larter, who plays Angela, teased that Sheridan will “just lean into that,” adding, “And I think what’s nice is that it’s not the first time. So when you’re going back down, it’s not the anxiety and the nervousness. You’ll get a little bit of the jitters, but to be able to go down and just do what we love [is wonderful].”

Garcia, 70, had a similar outlook on the experience.

“I’m in Taylor’s hands. I’m in it to win it. So, whatever he wants or has plans for me, I’m ready to execute,” he told Us. “It all starts from the writing. He’s the writer — and he’s the storyteller — and I think he writes all the characters in a very specific way. They are very well rounded and the stories are intertwined in a way that’s very engaging and he has a flair for the dramatic.”

Garcia continued, “He also [has] an understanding of humanity and empathy and he has an insight into relationships that are very keen. Whether it’s husband and wife, or father and daughter, or father and son, or in case maybe a businessman. It’s a privilege. When you have great writing, it’s always a privilege.”

Taylor Sheridan‘s Landman introduced some shocking twists and turns — but where would season 3 go after Demi Moore‘s Cami fired Billy Bob Thornton‘s character Tommy? Landman, which premiered in November 2024, is Sheridan’s newest hit series, joining the ranks of Yellowstone, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Lawmen: Bass Reeves and Lioness. Based on the […]

Thornton, for his part, showed his support for Sheridan’s work — and once again took the chance to advocate for the prolific producer’s lack of award show recognition.

“It’s like, ‘If you have a disagreement over someone’s way or vibe or whatever it is, that’s not the point,” he noted. “The point is, is he good? He writes great stuff.”

The actor continued, “He’s created quite an empire — and you have to respect him for that. He has the fame, he has the success, he deserves to be recognized for his work in TV shows, for sure.”

Landman is streaming on Paramount+.

Euphoria‘s Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje is addressing the confusion over Alamo and Maddy’s shocking hookup.

“With regard to the wonderful Alexa Demie — and what a great performance of Maddy — there was a lot of conjecture as to whether she slept with him,” Akinnuoye-Agbaje, 58, exclusively told Us Weekly.

Akinnuoye-Agbaje didn’t have as many questions.

“He laid out the bikini, he put on Etta James, he got the champagne, he’s in the hot tub in a snake skin speedo,” he noted. “I don’t think he’s there to play with the tootsies. So I just thought that was pretty obvious.”

Related: What Happened Between Euphoria’s Maddy and Alamo? Confusion Explained

Euphoria has caused a lot of confusion for viewers throughout the seasons — and now they are asking what exactly took place between Maddy and Alamo. Ahead of the season 3 finale, Maddy (Alexa Demie) had to ask Alamo (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) for money after Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) found out that Nate (Jacob Elordi) only had […]

The actor has enjoyed the offscreen reaction to his character’s development, adding, “What has been amusing is I’ve seen a few memes of what they call M and M — Mo and Mads — with four cocoa colored babies. That’s kind of fun. But I’ve done my part. I leave the rest for you guys to make your own movies.”

Euphoria viewers were initially confused after a May episode of the hit HBO show had Alamo forcing Maddy to put on a bathing suit and get in a hot tub with him. He ultimately agreed to help Maddy get the $1 million needed to save Nate (Jacob Elordi), but the scene cut off before the rest of their interaction was shown.

In the season 3 finale, which aired earlier this month, Maddy visited Alamo at his strip club, where he made a move on her while proposing they have four kids together. Alamo started to touch Maddy — who got on his lap — before the scene cut out again amid an implied but unseen kiss.

“I think he saw things in Maddie that reminded him of himself,” Akinnuoye-Agbaje shared. “She’s a business woman, she’s bold and she’s well put together. She’s a no-nonsense person.”

Akinnuoye-Agbaje thought Alamo was “turned on by that,” saying, “He was inspired by that. The point that she came into his life, he had achieved everything, he defeated the DEA, he defeated Laurie, he got rid of Rue the rat and he’d gotten all of the drugs and the money. He was on top of the world.”

Alamo was ready for something serious with Maddy.

“He realized he has everything but nothing. He had this wonderful moment of self-reflection — this epiphany that he had been exploiting women all this time — and now he wanted to surrender to them,” he continued. “He mistakenly — or rightly — thought that, ‘OK, Maddy, you’re The One.’ But obviously when push comes to shove — excuse the pun — he threw her out the window and used her as a bulletproof shield.”

Akinnuoye-Agbaje only saw one ending for Alamo. “He was always going to be about himself first,” he told Us. “That is the man. So would they have had a future? I think he would have tried. They would have had their cocoa colored babies, perhaps. But I think anytime he was under threat — his empire or his life — he would have sacrificed her in a minute as we saw in the showdown.”

After playing such a divisive character, Akinnuoye-Agbaje is curious what role will come his way next, adding, “I personally always like to go with things that challenge me to do something different. It could be humor or could be a comedy. The one thing I would say is that I’ve played a character that’s been so rich, complex, and layered that anything I do has to be at least on that level.”

He concluded, “How that manifests, I don’t mind. But I think I always like to keep my audience guessing. I enjoy disappearing from myself and transforming. So it would be probably something different for what I’ve played. It could be something that’s the antithesis to what I’ve just played.”

Euphoria is currently streaming on HBO Max.

Sam Raimi isn’t only one of the best horror and superhero directors of the last 40 years, he’s also an incredibly successful producer who kickstarted the 90s syndication boom. Hercules, Xena, Young Hercules, Jack of All Trades, all of them were executive produced by Raimi and filmed in New Zealand. There’s another show in his stable, one that doesn’t get talked about as much as the others, and unlike all of them, it’s sci-fi. Cleopatra 2525 is so campy, it makes She-Spies seem grounded, and it was another Raimi hit that aired for two seasons. Today, you can’t find it streaming anywhere, which has denied generations the chance to see a stripper save the future. 

Cleopatra 2525 Is A Sci-Fi Fever Dream

Cleopatra 2525 is as goofy as the title. Cleo (Jennifer Sky), an exotic dancer, was cryogenically frozen after a simple cosmetic procedure  went wrong, and wound up waking up 500 years later in a future where humanity lives underground. AI has taken over the surface using drones called Baileys to keep humanity in check. Cleo joins the resistance fighters Hel (pre-Firefly Gina Torres) and Sarge (Victoria Pratt) as they are given missions by The Voice (Elizabeth Hawthorne). Three women, missions given by only a voice? It’s sci-fi Charlie’s Angels. 

Most of the plots center around Betrayers, which, as the name implies, are humans working for the Baileys. In practice, this turns episodes into games of Among Us where the team has to deduce who the Betrayer is, or go out of their way to capture a Betrayer, and you get the idea. As with Xena and Hercules, the majority of the episodes are self-contained adventures, though as with Raimi’s other shows, there’s a stable of supporting characters that pop in and out of the series.

What you can expect every episode is Cleo impressing the residents of the 25th century with her deep, philosophical musings, such as “The truth is out there” or “Live long and prosper. The Force is with you.” It’s a take on Idiocracy, years before Mike Judge released his documentary. Pop culture of today is to the future what Shakespeare is to us. 

The Golden Age Of Campy Sci-Fi

Cleopatra 2525 is available as an out of print DVD box set but other than that, it’s not streaming anywhere. For the longest time, it was on Tubi, which means it’ll likely pop back up at some point and when it does, it’s well worth checking out. The early 2000s were a Golden Age of campy, low-budget sci-fi that holds up remarkably well. It’s insane, the special effects looked dated back then, and yet, Cleopatra 2525 has more heart and joy than the majority of today’s sci-fi.

One question that I get asked very often is why I like movies so much. Obviously, there are plenty of reasons: for example, movies are the best way to bring amazing stories to life in a way that audiences will never forget. What I don’t always admit to people is that I love films because they help me psychoanalyze myself. Like, why do I adore horror movies so much? Like, I live a pretty mild-mannered life and get wigged out by the grisly details of true crime podcasts. Nonetheless, nothing delights me quite as much as films where psychotic killers turn hapless victims into mincemeat.  

By getting closer to answering that question, I get that much closer to learning what makes my weird brain tick. That’s part of why I loved Nope (2022) so much: it’s a blockbuster from iconic horror director Jordan Peele that doesn’t settle for simply scaring us. Instead, the movie explores the weird intersection of film history, yearning nostalgia, and destructive spectacle, all of which force the audience to learn more about what they find scary and why. Care to learn more about yourself with one of the decade’s freshest, most frightening films? Good news, pilgrim: Nope is currently streaming on Netflix!

Cowboy And Alien

The plot of Nope is that a pair of siblings who provide horses for Hollywood productions discover something astonishing: namely, that a UFO has been snacking on their horses. They then decide to do what most of us would in their position: record the UFO and then sell the footage for cash. Unfortunately, capturing this thing on camera is easier said than done. For one thing, it has a bad habit of shutting down nearby electronics. For another thing, anyone who so much as looks at this thing is in danger of becoming its next meal.

Still, the stubborn siblings persist in their plan. They get help from an increasingly eclectic series of allies, including a grizzled cameraman and a former child actor who narrowly survived getting killed by a chimpanzee costar. Eventually, everything culminates in a madcap attempt by this ersatz crew to capture live footage of this alien object. But as its body count grows and they learn more about its terrible secrets, one thing becomes clear: everyone involved will be lucky if they manage to somehow get out of this alive!

The Dangers Of Nostalgia

One of the weirder things I loved about Nope is how it unflinchingly presents nostalgia as a kind of double-edged sword. Sometimes, looking back to the past can be wholesome, like when the sibling protagonists take pride in their family’s connection to the earliest days of Hollywood. Plus, the veteran cameraman uses a handcranked camera to circumvent the UFO’s anti-tech abilities, a moment that is presented as the ingenuity of the past triumphing over the problems of the present. But nostalgia can also be dangerous and debilitating, as evidenced by Steven Yeun’s Jupe character.

Jupe narrowly survived a tragedy in the ‘90s when a chimpanzee co-star named Gordy got startled and murdered everyone else before being shot. As an adult, Jupe weaponizes public nostalgia for his show and for old cowboy movies by creating a tacky, Western-style theme park. Jupe never stops dwelling on the past, and he would do anything (including putting hundreds of people in danger) to regain the fame he had as a child actor. He ultimately dies because he misunderstands how he survived the chimp’s attack in the first place (namely, by never looking directly at its eyes), showcasing how fatally fickle our nostalgic memories can be.  

The Most Believable Performances In Horror

As with all of director Jordan Peele’s films, the single best part of Nope is the cast. Sure, the special effects are excellent, and they do a great job of helping the UFO at the center of this weird tale be properly frightening. But the frights only work because we witness the scary events through the lens of what might be the most believable performers in horror history. Daniel Kaluuya’s OJ, for example, isn’t some walking horror cliche who makes a constant stream of bad decisions. Instead, he is the ultimate audience surrogate, reacting (often hilariously) in the exact baffled and beleaguered way that the rest of us would to a hungry UFO.

Kaluuya has absolutely amazing chemistry with Keke Palmer, who plays his sister. With one scene-stealing line after another, she helps bring their sibling rivalry to hilarious life, and Palmer always ensures that we can see the warmth and love undergirding every mean comment she makes to her onscreen brother. I also thought that Steven Yeun’s Jupe was remarkably complex: he is both a trauma survivor and a trauma-powered grifter, and Yeun helps to sell the desperate pathos of a man who makes one bad decision after another, all in an attempt to return to Hollywood glory days that everyone has forgotten but him.

A Deconstructed Mystery Box

When rewatching Nope, I finally put my finger on one of the more elusive reasons I always loved this movie: Jordan Peele takes the most annoying trope in film and finally does something interesting with it. After the success of JJ Abrams’ Lost, an increasing number of movies and TV shows embraced “mystery box” storytelling. These are the kinds of stories where key details are released in a slow trickle to force audience engagement. As with Lost, the answers are almost always disappointing, but the driving idea behind mystery box storytelling is that it’s okay if the reveal sucks, so long as the mystery is compelling.

Nope, by contrast, provides a kind of deconstructed mystery box. Key information isn’t trickle-truthed out to the audience; instead, we discover the most important things right alongside the characters, and every single promised payoff seriously delivers. That makes this horror film as immersive as it is rewarding, especially the climax that will leave you on the edge of your seat. What happens in this iconic horror movie, and what will it tell you about what you’re afraid of? The only way to find out is to stream it for yourself on Netflix!
