8 Thriller Trilogies That Are Perfect From Start to Finish
In the world of cinema, three has always been something of a magic number, and the only achievement greater than creating one masterpiece movie is creating three that work together to form a perfect trilogy. Across genres, from fantasy to sci-fi to crime, the best movie trilogies showcase cinematic storytelling at its finest, creating meticulously crafted arcs that follow narrative or spiritual connections between masterworks. And thrillers are no exception.
Whether they’re outright thriller movies or just really, really thrilling films, there have been several thriller trilogies attempted over the years, not all of which have paid off. But the best of them, the undeniable greats, are the trilogies that successfully deliver pitch-perfect experiences in all three entries. Without further ado, here’s our handpicked selection of thriller trilogies that are simply perfect from start to finish.
1
The Vengeance Trilogy (2002–2005)
‘Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance’ (2002), ‘Oldboy’ (2003), ‘Lady Vengeance’ (2005)
Directed by Park Chan-wook, the three iconic action films that together form The Vengeance Trilogy are not narratively connected, but they are interconnected in their themes and motifs, collectively exploring various aspects of vengeance and its lasting, unavoidable impact. Each film explores a chilling story of self-consuming guilt, revenge, moral decay, and the destructive aspects of the human condition. The key cast members include Oh Kwang-rok, who appears in all three films, with Choi Min-sik, Song Kang-ho, Shin Ha-kyun, and Oh Dal-su playing key roles across the trilogy.
The Vengeance Trilogy is considered a major milestone of Korean New Wave Cinema of the 2000s, with Oldboy garnering the most worldwide acclaim. The trilogy also became some of the most defining films of Park Chan-wook’s career that put him on the global map as a notable filmmaker. Each of the films in the Vengeance Trilogy is recognized for blending gruesome violence and intense emotions with sharp social commentary, complex existential themes, and remarkable cinematography.
2
The Mexico Trilogy (1993–2003)
‘El Mariachi’ (1993), ‘Desperado’ (1995), ‘Once Upon a Time in Mexico’ (2003)
Directed by Robert Rodriguez, The Mexico Trilogy is a set of three Western action films about the central character known as El Mariachi and his fateful journey of love, loss, and revenge. The sequels Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico follow new chapters in El Mariachi’s life but continue his saga of revenge. The first film stars Carlos Gallardo as El Mariachi, while the sequels star Antonio Banderas in the central role alongside Salma Hayek, with Steve Buscemi, Johnny Depp, Eva Mendes, and Micky Rourke appearing across the second and third films.
Though the three movies don’t follow directly interconnected events, The Mexico Trilogy is a great showcase of a character’s growth from a lovelorn artist to a vengeful force of nature. The journey also marks the series’ evolution from a niche, independent action flick to a major mainstream feature starring A-listers. Evidently inspired by Spaghetti Westerns and Latin folk mythology, particularly Sergio Leone’s Dollars Trilogy, The Mexico Trilogy boasts stylish and slick action set pieces with two-handed gunfights and Mexican stand-offs, making this action trilogy an ultimate entertainer.
3
Terminator 1-3 (1984–2003)
‘Terminator’ (1984), ‘Terminator 2: Judgment Day’ (1991), ‘Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines’ (2003)
James Cameron’s The Terminator launched a highly successful film series that now constitutes a massive global multimedia franchise. But despite the seemingly never-ending deluge of sequels, the first three films are arguably the best, forming a cohesive trilogy that follows the war between Skynet, an evil synthetic intelligence, and a human resistance group, which turns into a time-bending conflict as Skynet sends increadingly high-end killer cyborgs back in time to kill the resistance before it begins, starting with T-800, the franchise’s iconic titular character. Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as T-800 in all the films, with other cast members including Earl Boen, Linda Hamilton, Michael Biehn, and more.
The Terminator films solidified Cameron’s status as a sci-fi auteur while establishing Schwarzenegger as an action hero and a Hollywood icon. The battle of the Terminators, Skynet, and the resistance continues beyond Rise of the Machines, but the first three films shape the complete narrative arc of John and Sarah Connor’s prophecy, humanity’s destiny, and T-800’s role. All three films are noteworthy for their high-stakes, innovative action pieces, pioneering special effects, and a consistently relentless pacing and tone that redefined cyberpunk action thrillers.
4
Die Hard Original Trilogy (1988–1995)
‘Die Hard’ (1988), ‘Die Hard 2’ (1990), ‘Die Hard with a Vengeance’ (1995)
Originating from Roderick Thorpe’s crime novel Nothing Lasts Forever, Die Hard and its subsequent two sequels form the original Die Hard trilogy that redefined Bruce Willis’s career. All three films star Willis as John McClane, a NYPD police officer who continually finds himself targeted by ruthless villains and is forced to battle dangerous situations to save the day with his brains, brawn, and a little bit of luck. Bonnie Bedelia, Reginald VelJohnson, Alan Rickman, Jeremy Irons, and Samuel L. Jackson star in notable roles across the three films.
Over the years, Die Hard has grown into a widely loved action film franchise, though the sequels following Die Hard with a Vengeance are not as successful or popular as the first three films. The film makes the best of the “wrong man, wrong place” trope, redefining what an action hero meant at the time and establishing John McClane as an everyman action hero that became a genre prototype of the ’90s. With dramatic fights, explosive stunts, and quirky, memorable one-liners from the maverick hero, the first three Die Hard films are true action masterpieces.
5
The Alien Original Trilogy (1979–1992)
‘Alien’ (1979), ‘Aliens’ (1986), ‘Alien 3’ (1992)
While not technically a “trilogy,” Alien, Aliens, and Alien: Resurrection together make up a complete set of films and can be defined as the original trilogy of the film franchise. In this sci-fi horror universe created by Ridley Scott, Ellen Ripley, a soldier on a distant planet, battles extraterrestrial creatures called Xenomorphs and an evil corporation trying to weaponize them while navigating personal loss. Sigourney Weaver stars as Ellen Ripley, with Tom Skerritt, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and Lance Henriksen appearing across the three films.
Among all the films in the sci-fi horror franchise, the first three Alien movies are considered to be among the most seminal works of the genre. Perfectly balancing psychological horror, existential dread, and survival thriller, the trilogy collectively charts the complete evolution of Ellen Ripley from a survivor to a warrior and mother. Following the initial mixed reception, the Alien films turned into 20th-century sci-fi classics that paved the way for a massive multimedia franchise spanning decades, redefining extraterrestrial movies and inspiring numerous sci-fi horror filmmakers of the future.
6
The Bourne Trilogy (2002–2007)
‘The Bourne Identity’ (2002), ‘The Bourne Supremacy’ (2004), ‘The Bourne Ultimatum’ (2007)
Based on Robert Ludlum’s Bourne novel series, The Bourne Trilogy comprises the first three films in the franchise, with Doug Liman directing The Bourne Identity and Paul Greengrass directing the sequels, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum. The overall plot follows Jason Bourne, a CIA assassin suffering from dissociative amnesia, as he tries to reclaim his identity and seek the truth, while being hunted by his former employers. Matt Damon stars as the titular hero, appearing in all three films alongside Franka Potente, Julia Stiles, and Brian Cox.
The Bourne series would continue with two more films following Ultimatum, but the first three movies are considered to be the best in the series. The original trilogy redefined the presentation of spies in cinema, shifting from the slick, tuxedo-clad James Bond-like gentlemen to everyday characters with real-world stakes. Powered by Matt Damon’s authentic performances that established him as an action star, The Bourne Trilogy broke several box office and critical records and set new standards for spy action thrillers.
7
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2001–2003)
‘The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring’ (2001), ‘The Two Towers’ (2002), ‘The Return of the King’ (2003)
Based on and titled after the novels by J.R.R. Tolkien, Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the first-ever live-action feature film adaptation of the fantasy classics. Spread across three chapters, the trilogy follows young hobbit Frodo Baggins and his companions as they travel across Middle-earth to Mordor to destroy the One Ring, an evil artifact tied to the Dark Lord Sauron. The ensemble cast includes Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Ian McKellen, Sean Astin, John Rhys-Davies, and Orlando Bloom, among many others.
The Lord of the Rings is unarguably the most epic trilogy of the 21st century, winning 17 Academy Awards, with Return of the King winning all of its 11 nominations, breaking all records at the time. Each of the three films is sheer spectacle, unfolding like a cinematic epic, frame by frame. The fantastical settings, sweeping visual effects, pitch-perfect music, and remarkable character designs that became synonymous with the films make The Lord of the Rings Trilogy truly one of the greatest and most influential film series ever made in the history of cinema.
8
The Dark Knight Trilogy (2005–2012)
‘Batman Begins’ (2005), ‘The Dark Knight’ (2008), ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ (2012)
Based on fan-favorite DC Comics characters, Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Trilogy is a series of superhero films starring Christian Bale as the titular protector of Gotham City. The trilogy kicks off with Batman Begins, chronicling Bruce Wayne’s origin story as an orphaned heir who transforms into an invincible vigilante with an all-consuming mission, which is further elaborated on and deconstructed in the sequels. The ensemble cast also includes Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Cillian Murphy, and more.
Batman and associated DC characters have appeared on the big screen for decades, but Nolan’s cinematic interpretation of the Caped Crusader remains the most iconic of all. While The Dark Knight is arguably the best film in the trilogy, all three films make for satisfying journeys, following the dark superhero as he dishes out his particular brand of justice to keep his city safe. All three films boast magnificent production values with high-octane, perfectly choreographed action, powerhouse acting from Bale and others, remarkable special effects, and Hans Zimmer’s haunting score, all of which work together to create a truly unmatched experience.

Love Island U.K. star Tommy Fury was seemingly absent when his 16-year-old niece, Venezuela Fury, married her fiancé, Noah Price.
Tommy’s partner Molly-Mae Hague — who is pregnant with Baby No.2 — was present and their daughter, Bambi, 3, served as flower girl for Venezuela and Noah’s special day on the Isle Man on Saturday, May 16. However, Tommy was nowhere to be seen in various family photos. (Venezuela’s parents are Tommy’s half-brother, boxing legend Tyson Fury, and Paris Fury.)
There has been speculation that Tommy, 27, missed the family wedding because he is in intense fight training for his boxing match against Eddie Hall at the AO Arena in Manchester on Saturday, June 13. Tommy’s most recent Instagram post on Sunday, May 9, showcased his training routine, including hitting the speed bag, performing push-ups and pumping iron.
“Ready to GO. 🕺🕺🥊🥊 5 weeks out,” he wrote alongside the training photos.
Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague have dated on and off for five years after leaving the Love Island U.K. villa. Fury, a professional boxer, was one of the first bombshells of season 5, which aired in June 2019. After exploring his connection with fellow contestant Lucie Donlan, Fury was drawn to Hague several days later after […]
Us Weekly has reached out to Tommy’s spokesperson for comment.
Tommy’s fight against Hall, 38, is set to take place one day after Hague’s projected due date on June 12. In a recent vlog, Hague assured fans she wasn’t upset over Tommy’s fight being scheduled so close to her due date.
“A lot of questions about, ‘How do you feel about Tommy’s fight,’ and obviously the date of it,” she told viewers in April. “Obviously I knew that you guys were going to be concerned about that and have questions about that, but fear not.”
The Love Island U.K. star went on, “Fear not fair maiden because we’re actually feeling really, really good about it and have a really good plan in place.”
Hague insisted that she was “not worried and I’m actually really, really happy” that Tommy got a fight on the calendar. (Tommy last stepped into the ring on May 9, 2025, when he defeated Kenan Hanjalic by unanimous decision in Budapest, Hungary.)

“Just having a date for something and having a focus and us having something to look forward to in the fight, it’s actually a really, really, really positive thing and he will be here when I get home. He will be able to support me,” she noted.
Meanwhile, Hague documented some special moments for daughter Bambi at Venezuela and Noah’s wedding on Saturday, including showing off the six-tiered, blue wedding cake decorated with blue-and-yellow roses.
Venezuela wore a strapless, lace mermaid gown from designer Ava Rose Hamilton for the ceremony while Bambi was dressed in a blue princess gown to perform her flower duties. Hague wore a black lace jumpsuit.
Venezuela previously confirmed that her now-husband proposed at her 16th birthday party in September 2025.
“Congratulations to @venezuelafuryofficial and @7noahprice on getting engaged,” her mom, Paris, announced via Instagram on September 27, 2025. “Both only young but when you know you know! Still in shock, but very happy for you both.”

Forget ‘School of Rock,’ This Coming-of-Age Music Favorite Is the Perfect Free Streaming Watch
The best coming-of-age movies are about getting out, or about finding the thing that makes you feel everything, making life easier when the going gets tough. This movie is a great example of both, plus it’s got guitars, eyeliner, homemade music videos, school bullies and the massively wholesome belief that all your problems might just go away if only you could form a band. Which means your pain will be accompanied by a banging soundtrack.
Sing Street is streaming for free this month on Fawesome. Written and directed by John Carney, the film is set in 1980s Dublin and follows Conor, a teenager who starts a band to impress a mysterious girl named Raphina. We’ve all been there, surely. What begins as a romantic stunt ends up actually working and becoming more meaningful, giving Conor a creative outlet as his family life falls apart, and his future starts to feel uncertain.
The cast includes Ferdia Walsh-Peelo (Vikings, CODA) as Conor, Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody, The Politician) as Raphina, Jack Reynor (Midsommar, The Peripheral) as Brendan, Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones, Peaky Blinders) as Robert, Maria Doyle Kennedy (Orphan Black, Outlander) as Penny, Mark McKenna (Wayne, One of Us Is Lying) as Eamon, Ben Carolan as Darren, and Ian Kenny (Solo: A Star Wars Story, The Journey) as Barry.
Was ‘Sing Street’ a Success?
Oh yes, this is one of the most beloved movies of the 2010s. It was a major critical success and a solid financial success, especially considering it was a small indie musical. Critically, it was adored. It holds a 95% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus calling it “a feel-good musical with huge heart and irresistible optimism,” and the reviews praising the cast’s performances and the songs. It was also nominated for Best Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes. Financially, it did well too. The movie reportedly cost around $4 million to make and grossed about $13.6 million worldwide.
Boynton, while speaking to Collider’s Perri Nemiroff, gushed about the experience of working on the film, saying that the work done by Carney behind the scenes made it one of her best experiences. “[Writer-director John Carney] had created these characters so vividly, and it was semi-autobiographical,” she said. “I think I just turned up willing to be directed, not in a passive way, but in a way that really gave him all the authority and he really pushed back on that and gave all of us complete ownership of our characters, and I had never experienced it to that extent before“

Josh Duhamel and his wife, Audra Mari, are celebrating the birth of their new baby girl.
“Rocca de Leon Duhamel our baby girl is here,” the couple announced via a joint Instagram post on Saturday, May 16.
They shared a carousel of baby Rocca’s early milestones, including introducing her to big brother Shepherd. One adorable shot showcased Duhamel, 53, near tears as he cradled his newborn daughter.
Duhamel and Mari’s daughter joins their son, Shepherd, who arrived in January 2024. The actor is also the father of son Axl, whom he welcomed with ex-wife Fergie in August 2013.
Many stars grew their families in 2026. In March, Riverdale alum Charles Melton, Carly Rae Jepsen and Charlie Puth all became parents for the first time. Hailee Steinfeld also welcomed her first baby, a daughter, with husband Josh Allen before the end of the month. Thank You! You have successfully subscribed. Subscribe to newsletters Enter […]
Mari announced via Instagram in March that she was pregnant with the couple’s second baby.
“Adding a little girl to our story. We can’t wait to meet you,” she captioned black-and-white maternity photos that highlighted her growing baby bump.
In the comments section, Duhamel responded, “Can’t wait to meet that little cutie 💕 Love you momma.”
Fergie — who was married to Duhamel from 2009 to 2019 — also sent her well-wishes, replying, “Welcome the cuteness! 💖💖.”
Duhamel and Mari confirmed their engagement in January 2022 after two years of dating. That September, the pair tied the knot.
After a high-profile marriage and subsequent divorce from Fergie, Josh Duhamel sparked a low-key romance with now-wife Audra Mari. “Everyone told me that after you get married you feel different,” Mari exclusively gushed to Us Weekly in September 2022. “To be honest, I never really believed them and I thought it would feel the same […]
Prior to Shepherd’s birth, Duhamel expressed his excitement about becoming a father again while hinting at his plans to have more kids with Mari.
“I get to do this again and hopefully again after that,” he said on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show in September 2023. “Axl’s going to be a great older brother. Audra’s going to be a great mother, [I’m] very blessed. … I’m jumping back in at this ripe old age. I’m doing it. To me, that’s what it’s about. I’m meant to be a dad.”
In March 2025, Duhamel opened up about parenting a toddler in his 50s. He exclusively told Us Weekly at the time that he was “trying to stay as young and youthful as I can,” not only so he could “work as long as possible” but also “to stay as healthy and useful to chase my 1-year-old.”
Later that year, Duhamel reflected on his experience as a father amid his role as a less-than-stellar dad in the film London Calling.
Many stars are expanding their families in 2026. Riverdale alum Charles Melton’s girlfriend, director Camille Summers-Valli, rang in the new year by confirming her pregnancy with their first baby. Two days later, Paradise star Krys Marshall debuted her baby bump at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards. Adding to the baby bliss, February began with reality […]
“It was fun to look at some of the things that I could even do better as a dad,” he exclusively told Us in September 2025. “I work a lot, and I often have a lot of guilt about not being there as often as I could be. So I try to maybe overcompensate or do things to be there often.”
He continued, “But at the same time, you want your kid to look and see [that] this is what you have to do to provide for your family. So on the other hand, you can’t be there all the time because you’ve got to be setting an example. But on the other hand, you might be missing out on life moments that you’d [be there for] if you were a 9 to 5 dad who went to work every day and came home. So it’s a constant struggle in this business. It’s not easy.”
Duhamel went on to rave over his coparenting dynamic with Mari and Fergie, noting, “We all have to work together to make sure that this thing works.”
Kiefer Sutherland has canceled the U.S. leg of his ongoing tour due to low ticket sales, while continuing to perform shows in Europe and the U.K.
The actor turned musician said refunds will be issued and hinted at returning to the U.S. in the future.
The decision comes amid recent legal scrutiny tied to an alleged incident between Kiefer Sutherland and a rideshare driver earlier this year, along with renewed attention around his past legal history.
Kiefer Sutherland Cancels U.S. Tour Dates Over Low Ticket Sales
In a post shared on Instagram, the 59-year-old actor and musician said he was “disappointed” by the decision but felt continuing the shows in America wouldn’t be fair to fans or venues if attendance was low.
He added that anyone who had already purchased tickets would be refunded through their original point of sale, and expressed hope to return for future U.S. dates under better circumstances.
The cancellation affects several planned stops across major cities, including Los Angeles, Boston, and Phoenix. However, his final scheduled performance in Las Vegas is still currently listed as going ahead, along with a later appearance at a music festival in Canada.
Sutherland is still completing the European and U.K. legs of his “Love Will Bring You Home” tour, which supports his upcoming fourth studio album, “Grey,” set for release later this month.
The Actor Thanked His European Fans As The Tour Continues
Sutherland recently thanked European audiences online, saying the shows had been a positive experience as the tour continues.
The tour marks his first full run since 2024, as he has been steadily building his music career alongside his acting career.
His recent work has focused more on personal themes, with him describing the new album as a more introspective project shaped by his experiences over the past couple of years.
“In many ways, these songs mark a growth for me personally, as I wrote less about observations and more about personal feelings that I have been navigating in my own life,” he shared, per the Daily Mail.
Kiefer Sutherland Has Gotten Into Legal Troubles Over The Years
Sutherland’s recent tour announcement comes after a period of legal scrutiny earlier in the year, due to an incident involving a rideshare driver in Los Angeles.
Authorities reviewed the case, with further investigation requested before any final decisions on charges.
Sutherland was initially taken into custody in connection with allegations tied to the encounter and released on bail.
Best known for his role as Jack Bauer in “24,” the actor has faced multiple legal issues over several decades, including driving-related incidents and prior arrests.
His history includes incidents dating back to the late 1980s and 1990s, as well as later DUI-related cases in the 2000s that resulted in jail time, probation, and community service requirements.
The Actor Opened Up About Stigma Around His Music Career
Despite past controversies, Sutherland has remained active across both film and music.
Alongside his touring schedule, he continues to work on screen projects, with recent and upcoming films still in development, including a thriller and another production currently in post-production.
He previously reflected on his decision to pursue a music career, admitting he was initially hesitant about stepping into the industry as an established actor.
In an interview with People Magazine, the actor acknowledged the common skepticism toward actors who transition into music, saying he once shared that same reaction himself.
“I had no intention of making an album. I hear about an actor wanting to do music, and my eyes roll back too,” Sutherland said, adding that he was fully aware of the stigma, which contributed to his reluctance for years.
Kiefer Sutherland On His Unexpected Path Into Music And First Album Journey
In his chat with the publication, Sutherland explained that music had actually been part of his life since his teenage years, even though he never initially planned to turn it into a professional path.
According to the actor, his first album, “Down in a Hole,” came together more organically than expected after working with collaborators in the studio.
Sutherland recalled how a recording session with a collaborator named Jude helped shift his perspective.
After laying down a couple of songs early in the process, he was encouraged to consider turning the material into a full album.
“At the end, he said, ‘I really like your songs, and they are clearly yours. You should do them. You should make a record,’” Sutherland shared.
He initially dismissed the idea, joking that it would never happen, but said that after spending more time in the studio, the idea began to feel more realistic and eventually led to the creation of the record.
The president of a Staten Island condo building has provided some rare insight into who Pete Davidson is as a neighbor.
“He is a perfect neighbor. He was polite, he was nice to everyone,” Christopher Campbell, building president of the Accolade Condominium at 90 Bay Street Landing, where Davidson lived for years, wrote in a reported “thank you” letter of sorts, according to a Saturday, May 16, report from local media outlet silive.com.
“He knows that people want to talk to him, so he broke the ice,” Campbell continued in the reported letter. “If he’s on the elevator and he doesn’t know the person, he would introduce himself, and people just thought of him as their neighbor.”
Campbell reportedly added, “When he was dating [Kim Kardashian], she would come here… and he thought of his neighbors, and he didn’t want to have an entourage blocking the front entrance, so he would take the side door to be police. He used to bring his celebrity friends, so you never know who you’re going to meet in the building. Miley Cyrus has been here, Kid Cudi, Machine Gun Kelly.”
An unexpected romance. After shocking fans with their relationship in 2021, Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson have called it quits. “They amicably split this week,” an insider told Us Weekly in August 2022. The breakup came after the two had been dating for nine months. Prior to their decision to part ways, Kardashian and Davidson […]
The building president also reportedly thanked the Saturday Night Live alum for donating an air hockey table to the residents of his former home.
“On behalf of everyone at The Accolade Condominium, we want to extend our heartfelt best wishes as you begin your next chapter,” the reported thank you letter read in part. “It has truly been a pleasure having you as part of our community. You were the perfect neighbor, always friendly, approachable, and respectful to everyone around you. Your presence brought a special energy to our building, and we know many residents will fondly remember their interactions with you.”
The letter reportedly concluded, “We are especially grateful for your generous donation of the air hockey table to the community room. It has already brought so much enjoyment to residents of all ages and will continue to be a lasting reminder of your kindness and thoughtfulness.”
Insight of Davidson’s neighborly tendencies comes just hours after Us Weekly broke the news that the comedian and his partner, Elsie Hewitt, have called it quits five months after welcoming their first baby together, daughter Scottie Rose. (Scottie is named after Davidson’s father, a former firefighter who died while responding to the September 11, 2011, terrorist attacks.)
“They are still sorting things out as it pertains to their split,” a source close to the couple exclusively told Us on Saturday. “They tried to make it work but there were different stressors, including having a baby together as two people who didn’t yet know each other that well. They are both trying to make it work and have made accommodations in their schedules for the baby.”
The SNL alum and model were first romantically linked in March 2025, going on to welcome their daughter in December of that same year.
“The best thing I’ve been telling people is [that Scottie is] the biggest gift,” Davidson exclusively told Us one month after his daughter’s birth. “Nothing else matters as much or intensely, like career, activities, hanging out with people [or] what do people think of me, that sort of s***. I still want to do cool stuff, but it’s like, ‘Well, how long do I have to stay away?’ Or, ‘Is this worth being away?’”
Jennifer Lopez is facing backlash online after a recent hotel exit left some social media users accusing the superstar of staging a paparazzi moment. The singer and actress was spotted outside a Four Seasons Hotel in New York City on Wednesday, where cameras captured what many believed was a carefully timed entrance for photographers waiting outside.
Video circulating online showed Lopez lingering near the hotel entrance as several guests exited the building before she eventually made her way outside. Once the lobby had cleared, the “Jenny From the Block” singer stepped out, appearing to make a dramatic, runway-style walk toward her waiting vehicle while photographers snapped away.
Lopez briefly waved to fans before hopping inside her SUV and heading off to her next stop. The star was reportedly on her way to a screening event for Netflix’s “Office Romance” at AMC Newport Center in Jersey City.
As clips of Lopez’s now-viral hotel departure continued making the rounds online, even more critics piled on with blunt reactions. Some commenters questioned the singer’s relevance, with one writing, “She would be nothing without autotune. A washed-up has-been who has been reduced to staged paparazzi photo ops because no one gives a crap about her.”
Others admitted they still thought Lopez looked stunning, but couldn’t get past what they viewed as an awkward moment. “Sooooo embarrassing, she looks great of course but it’s just cringeville 2.0,” another person commented. A different user criticized celebrity appearances in general, writing, “She looks ridiculous. Most of these celebrities look stupid in real life. Their looks are embarrassing.”
Meanwhile, another harsh critic added, “Sick, insecure diva with zero talent.” One person summed up their thoughts on the moment more simply, writing, “Yup diva antics!”
Jennifer Lopez Gushes Over Brett Goldstein Amid Growing Buzz
Despite the online chatter surrounding her latest public appearance, Lopez had nothing but glowing things to say about Office Romance co-star Brett Goldstein. Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE at Netflix’s Upfront event in New York City on May 13, the singer and actress opened up about their connection while filming the upcoming romantic comedy. “We had great chemistry to begin with,” Lopez said. “It just grew as we did the film together.”
Lopez also revealed she was already a fan of the actor long before they worked together. “I was a huge fan of his from him doing Ted Lasso. Roy Kent, that’s one of my favorite characters,” she explained. “I thought he was going to be more like the character, but he was so soft-spoken and sweet and totally different.”
The sweet comments come as rumors continue to swirl that the pair may have “grown close” following production on the Netflix film.
Lopez Says She’s In Her ‘Happy Era’ After Ben Affleck Split
Earlier this year, Lopez opened up about entering a brand-new chapter in her life while promoting her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace. Structured in four acts, the residency reflected not only on Lopez’s decades-long career but also on the personal lessons she has learned along the way.
“I feel like my shows are always an athletic event,” Lopez joked during an interview with ABC News’ Juju Chang that aired on “Good Morning America.” But beyond the spectacle, Lopez said the residency represents something much deeper: what she calls her “happy era.” “I’m in my happy era,” Lopez shared. “I think for the first time in my life, I feel like I’m free. I am on my own. And it feels really good.”
Jennifer Lopez Gets Candid About Life After Ben Affleck
The candid comments came after Lopez’s 2024 split from ex-husband Ben Affleck and marked one of her most personal reflections yet on independence. “I didn’t really know what that felt like since I was in my early 20s,” she continued. “And even before that, you know, I’ve always had a boyfriend. There was always kind of, like, someone in my life and so many other things that I felt like were out of my control.”
Lopez added that she has reached a place where she trusts herself more than ever. “I just am at a point in my life where I really trust myself and have learned to kind of, I guess this sounds funny, appreciate myself a little bit more instead of being so hard on myself all the time and always trying to prove so many things,” she said.
OnlyFans creator Amira Evans is pulling back the curtain on her finances and revealing what she says she makes from her niche “giantess” content on the controversial adults-only platform.
“Men love the power dynamic where they feel so tiny and pathetic, and the woman is in charge and can just step on them any time and squish them like a bug,” Evans, 26, said in a press release shared with Us Weekly on Wednesday, May 13.
“Guys are really into the tall thing — they’ll often say things like, ‘Pick me up, mommy,’ and, ‘Sit on me,’ or, ‘Squish me,’” she added in the same release. “I have been asked to put a doll on the floor, face up, and stand on the doll in both high heels and barefoot. I have also been asked to put the doll inside my sock and stand on the doll with my sock on.”
According to the 6 foot, 7 inch, British OnlyFans star, she is paid $100 per minute for so-called “giantess” content, i.e. height- and dominance-based custom content. For the uninitiated, so-called “giantess” content focuses on a particular fascination with women of immense, larger-than-life status or size. This fascination allows for an exploration of size disparity between the sexes, power dynamics and role play.
Niche “giantess” erotic content has been gaining mainstream popularity after appearing in the long-awaited season 3 of HBO Max’s hit Euphoria. In the series, Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) becomes an OnlyFans-like star who acts like a “giantess” to the delight of one of her subscribers, who pays her to pretend to squash people.

In one scene that has gained a slew of online criticism, a larger-than-life Cassie unzips her top and presses her giant breasts up against a building’s windows. A normal-sized man, who was masturbating to one of Cassie’s online videos inside the office building, then comes to the window and presses his face against it and Cassie’s oversized breasts.
Evans explained in the same Wednesday press release that “giantess” fetish content is far more common than people realize, adding that many of her subscribers pay her “specifically” for her to make them feel “tiny” in comparison.
As OnlyFans made a name for itself as an online subscription service for content creators, many established stars took advantage of their large audience by joining the website. OnlyFans allows people to put out any sort of content, including nude photos, at a price they think their followers will pay to view them. From monthly […]
“I normally get my assistant to film me from the floor using a wide lens to make my legs look really long and my feet look massive,” Evans explained in the release.

Bethenny Frankel fired back after Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Dina Manzo and her daughter, Lexi Ioannou, accused her of not crediting their brand for one of her recent outfits.
“I don’t usually respond to things like this but I think there’s a business lesson here,” Frankel, 55, insisted via TikTok on Saturday, May 16.
The drama kicked off on Friday when Frankel showcased a strapless, polka dot sundress and received compliments about her black peep-toe pumps. She then pointed her fans to a Bloomingdales pair ($375) “for the same look.”
Ioannou, 30, later revealed that she’d sent the pumps to Bethenny as a promotion for her own fashion brand, Nou.
“Bethenny Frankel is a weirdo,” Ioannou claimed in an Instagram video on Friday. “I sent her a pair of shoes from Nou almost a year ago because I look up to her. [She is a] female entrepreneur [and from the] Bravo universe like me.”
Ioannou pointed out that Frankel never tagged Nou despite wearing the pumps in her social media content.
“OK, that happens, but then she posted a video today that’s going viral and a bunch of people are asking where the shoes are [from]. Instead of linking them, she linked a dupe with an affiliate link,” Ioannou complained. “I guess she’s got to get that bag in some sort of way? So, she got the shoes for free from a woman-founded brand, mine, and then she made money sending her followers somewhere else.”
Ioannou’s mom, Manzo, quoted one of Frankel’s iconic Real Housewives of New York City arguments with Ramona Singer while directing followers to buy “the real thing” from Nou.

“‘Wow Bethenny Wow!!’ So odd of you to post a dupe of your GIFTED @shopnou shoes instead of giving a young woman entrepreneur credit,” Manzo wrote via her Instagram Stories on Friday. “You wear them often so we know you like them??”
Frankel later released an “Outfit of the Day” video where she did credit Nou. In her TikTok response, Frankel insisted that her decision to link out to another retailer was standard practice in social media.
“The shoes were sold out so we linked to something similar because the audience gets frustrated when there’s something they can’t buy,” Frankel explained. “Why would I wear something and talk about it, if they can’t buy it?”
She went on, “This female owner decided to post a scathing video of me. Her body, her choice. I have stated multiple times that if you send me something, I have no obligation to link, like, use, wear, buy, tag. I can do whatever I want.”
Dolores Catania has thoughts on Bethenny Frankel’s attacks on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. “I mean, she’s a broken girl. She’s a very broken person,” Catania, 54, said of Frankel, 54, on the Wednesday, March 26, episode of iHeartRadio’s “Two Ts in a Pod” podcast. “I remember 14 years ago when this whole thing […]
Frankel suggested that she was now reluctant to support Ioannou’s brand after being called out.
“There are about a hundred brands that will watch this video that will message her to tell her how much product I move,” the former RHONY star predicted. “How many sprinkle cookies for Melissa Gorga, how many dresses for Ramy Brook, how many pairs of jeans for Guess. I move a lot of product because I don’t bulls***.”
The reality TV icon argued that Ioannou’s “whining and being a cry baby” was playing the “short game” in the business world.
“It means you’re not a real business person. You have a lot to learn,” Frankel quipped. “I would have worn all of the shoes on your site and you would have sold thousands of pairs and made hundreds of thousands of dollars.”
She added, “My account. My body. My choice. Once you send those shoes into my house, my shoes. You’re welcome!”
Us Weekly has reached out to Ioannou’s representative for comment.
Pete Davidson’s ex-girlfriend Elsie Hewitt is looking for a new “right hand person” following her split from the former Saturday Night Live star.
“I’m currently trying to find an assistant / mother’s helper / nanny type / basically [a] right hand person,” Hewitt, 30, announced via her Instagram Story on Saturday, May 16.
The Industry actress cautioned that any potential applicants would need to meet certain criteria before she’d consider them for the job.
“Apply here if qualified and serious,” she offered via her Instagram Story. “Only looking @ responses with resumes. ($ of course.)”
Hewitt’s search for a nanny comes five months after she and Davidson, 32, welcomed their first baby together, a daughter named Scottie Rose, in December 2025.
“Our perfect angel girl arrived 12/12/2025 scottie rose hewitt davidson,” she shared at the time. “My best work yet, i am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.”
Us Weekly exclusively reported on Saturday that Davidson and Hewitt recently decided to separate after 14 months of dating.
“They are still sorting things out as it pertains to their split,” a source close to the couple told Us. “They tried to make it work but there were different stressors, including having a baby together as two people who didn’t yet know each other that well. They are both trying to make it work and have made accommodations in their schedules for the baby.”

The insider suggested that it was “very unlikely” that Hewitt and Davidson would ever reconcile romantically while stressing that they are committed to coparenting effectively.
“They are still rooting for each other but are each going their own ways, outside of working to coparent and focusing on their baby,” the source told Us.
Davidson and Hewitt’s whirlwind relationship began when they were spotted together in March 2025 before announcing that they were expecting a baby together that July.
In January, Davidson and Hewitt told Us in a joint interview that they were planning to get married and have more children together.
“Yeah, we’ll do all that stuff,” Davidson insisted.
He also hinted “I think, obviously, we talk about next steps and all that stuff. But right now, we’re just, like, let’s get this routine with this baby down. … The first three months of the baby is, you’re just keeping her alive. We’re already, like, we’re gonna have another one.”
Pete Davidson and model Elsie Hewitt kept their relationship relatively low-key before their 2026 breakup. After the pair were spotted together on multiple occasions in March 2025, Us Weekly confirmed that they were dating. Weeks earlier, Hewitt gave a clue about her romantic life. “It’s actually so simple, like, I just want somebody who is […]
Earlier this week, the comic opened up on his “Pete Davidson Show” podcast about experiencing heartwarming parenting milestones with daughter Scottie Rose.
“[She] is 5 months old now,” he revealed. “She’s doing tummy time. She is really, really communicative. She’s trying to talk now. She’ll talk all day, but it’s just she’s going ‘la.’ So we kind of talk all day, and she’s so young.”
Prior to dating Hewitt, Davidson was engaged to Ariana Grande in 2018 and had high-profile relationships with Kate Beckinsale, Kim Kardashian and his Bodies Bodies Bodies costar Chase Sui Wonders.
Harry Styles kicked off his highly anticipated Together, Together tour in Amsterdam on Saturday, May 16.
The three-time Grammy winner, 32, opened his concert at the Johan Cruijff Arena with “Are You Listening Yet?” before running through hits including “Watermelon Sugar,” “Treat People With Kindness” and “Sign of the Times.” He closed out his 20-song set with “As It Was.” (See the full setlist below.)
Styles and supporting act Robyn will perform nine more shows at the Netherlands arena through June 5 before undertaking a record-breaking 12 dates at Wembley Stadium in London with opener Shania Twain from June 12 to July 4.
The former One Direction member will then bring his residency-style tour to São Paulo for four nights at Estádio do Morumbi with support from electronic band Fcukers followed by six concerts at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City with Jorja Smith.
From nostalgic reunions to buzzy new headliners and possible farewells, this summer’s concert calendar is stacked with what are sure to be must-see tours. Below, Us Weekly rounds up 10 superstar acts — including pop princess Ariana Grande, global heartthrob Harry Styles and generation-defying party starter Bruno Mars — who are hitting the road with […]
On August 26, Styles will begin a historic 30-show run at Madison Square Garden in New York City — his only Together, Together stop in the U.S. — that is scheduled to conclude with a “Harryween” performance on October 31. DJ Jamie xx will open for the pop star at the iconic venue.
After taking nearly a month off, Styles is set to return to the stage at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia, with DJ Baby J from November 27 to December 2 before wrapping up his 2026 tour dates at Accor Stadium in Sydney from December 12 to 13 with supporting act Skye Newman.

Together, Together — Styles’ first outing since Love on Tour, which ran from September 2021 to July 2023 — supports the X Factor U.K. alum’s fourth studio album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.
Styles launched his latest musical era in January with the release of the album’s lead single, “Aperture.” He has since debuted music videos for two more songs, “American Girls” and “Dance No More.”
Harry Styles has had quite the transformation since the early days of his career. The Brit entered into the spotlight in 2010 after trying out for The X Factor UK. During Styles’ time on the show, creator and judge Simon Cowell paired him with fellow contestants Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik […]
In March, a source exclusively told Us Weekly why the former boy bander decided to bring Together, Together to only seven cities.
“Harry approached this project and tour very mindfully,” the insider explained. “By doing multi-night residencies, there is less travel and less burnout. He will likely add more dates next year, but he is approaching this in a way that feels healthy for him.”
The source continued, “For Harry, the past couple of years have been about slowing down, stepping back and finding peace. He really treasured that time and the sense of privacy and normalcy. He is coming into this tour knowing what works for him. He is incredibly emotionally mature and constantly working on himself.”
The insider also noted that Styles’ rumored fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, is “very supportive” of his career, which is “a big part of why their relationship works.”
The couple went public with their relationship in August 2025 before sparking engagement rumors in April. Neither Styles nor Kravitz, 37, has publicly commented on the reports.
Harry Styles has accomplished a great deal since he rose to stardom as part of One Direction — and he’s had some very famous faces by his side along the way. One year after competing on The X Factor U.K., Styles had a brief relationship with Caroline Flack in 2011. He then started seeing Taylor […]
