For most DC fans, the critical and commercial failure of Supergirl comes as quite a shock. After all, last year’s Superman was the breakout blockbuster of the summer, earning more at the box office than either of Marvel’s films (The Thunderbolts and The Fantastic Four: First Steps). It was directed by geek king James Gunn, the same man who runs DC Studios. He absolutely loved the script for Supergirl and pushed the movie’s production schedule up. With Gunn’s seal of approval, the spinoff featuring Superman’s cousin seemed destined for greatness. But as the opening weekend projections plummeted and the critical reviews came in, it soon became clear that this movie was a failure. 

What we didn’t know was how much of a failure. Now, we have the answer, and it’s actually much worse than you thought. According to Deadline, the movie is currently set to lose Warner Bros. a cool $125 million. That would be bad news for any blockbuster and in any circumstance. However, Supergirl bombing is that much worse because it’s not just losing the studio plenty of cold, hard cash; it’s also shaking confidence in Gunn’s ability to lead the DCU in its fight with Marvel for box office supremacy. Now, a sobering fact emerges: the DCU may implode long before we even see the new Justice League onscreen.

Playing The Blame Game

Right now, some of the film’s biggest fans are trying to make the movie into another culture war flashpoint. The more militant fans are claiming that Supergirl’s critics are misogynists and incels who just weren’t ready to see a strong woman on the big screen. However, it genuinely seems like Supergirl was doomed more by the forces of apathy than misogyny. The low opening weekend (lower than Morbius, yikes!) is an indicator of how few people actually bothered to see the movie. Plus, in a bit of Morbin’ (er, morbid) irony, Supergirl undermines much of its girlpower street cred because of a very prominent storyline about sex trafficking.  

But how did Deadline arrive at the conclusion that Supergirl will lose the studio $125 million? They looked at factors such as the production cost (somewhere between $170-$186 million) and the movie’s opening weekend box office ($68 million). They also considered how much the domestic publicity and advertising budget was ($120 million) and how much the movie needed to make in order to break even (about $315 million). Throw in the estimates for declining weekly box office, and you get a bleak conclusion: Supergirl is going to lose somewhere around $125 million, making this a very public, very expensive failure for Warner Bros.

The Canary In The Coal Mine

With this kind of box office loss, it’s unlikely that Supergirl will ever headline another future film in the DCU. However, there may be a downstream effect where this impacts larger projects in the future. For example, Supergirl is supposed to be a major character in Superman: The Man of Tomorrow; if audiences hate that film because of her presence, it could spell bad news for James Gunn. If that Superman sequel is a hit, then it will pave the way for Wonder Woman, The Brave and the Bold, and, eventually, a Justice League film. If it bombs, though, the DCU could die before the JL even team up onscreen.

All DC fans should care about Supergirl’s failure because this movie is effectively the canary in the coal mine for the entire cinematic universe. Considering how many skipped seeing Supergirl, how much worse will it be for future projects featuring even more obscure heroes and villains? DC Studios has already shot a Clayface film, and they are currently working on a Deathstroke and Bane movie and a TV show that pairs Jimmy Olsen up with Gorilla Grodd. These are big creative swings, and they might all connect. But even if they all turn out to be excellent, that won’t matter if hardly anybody is watching them.

It’s worth noting that while critics dragged the DCEU for years, it produced about five commercial flops before Warner Bros. pulled the plug. Therefore, it might not be the end of the world now that James Gunn’s DCU has only produced one flop. However, superhero fatigue is dragging down box office earnings, and Gunn is facing stiff competition from Marvel in the form of Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday. Supergirl losing $125 million right before WB gets new leadership potentially changes the game for Gunn, and not in a good way. He’s not going to get five strikes; in fact, he’ll be lucky to get more than one! 

Affordability isn’t just a political buzzword — it’s a reality we all have to live in right now. Everything costs too much, from gas to mortgages and even subscription services like Netflix.

You know what doesn’t cost a single cent? Samsung TV Plus. Less well-known than other free streamers like Tubi and Pluto TV, Samsung TV Plus has a killer library of movies from different genres like action, thrillers and sci-fi.

This July, the platform added several cult classics that are worth watching, either for the first time or for the hundredth. From a haunting coming-of-age story starring River Phoenix to a ’90s comedy featuring Steve Martin and Diane Keaton, these films are perfect to stream on a lazy July afternoon.

‘Stand By Me’ (1986)

We recently ranked Stand by Me as one of 1986’s best movies, and one could easily argue it’s one of the best films of all time. It’s that good, and it remains the picture the late director Rob Reiner is best known for to this day. While it’s set in 1960s Oregon, Stand by Me has a timeless quality to it that makes it universally appealing — and endlessly enjoyable.

Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman and Jerry O’ Connell star as four childhood friends who hear about a dead body lying near some train tracks just outside of their small town. Believing they will be considered local heroes if they locate it, they set out on an adventure to find and retrieve it. But their journey brings them unexpected perils and surprising revelations, some of which will change their lives forever.

‘Father of the Bride’ (1991)

We all could use a laugh nowadays, and there are no two men better suited to do it than Steve Martin and Martin Short. The duo is currently killing it — sometimes literally — on the hit Hulu TV show Only Murders in the Building, but they’ve collaborated a few times before. Their best team-up occurs in Father of the Bride, a 1991 remake of the classic 1950 film starring Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor.

Martin stars as George Banks, a family man who must come to terms with the fact that his firstborn child, Annie (Kimberly Williams), is getting married. He also has to accept the fact that, as the father of the bride, he has to pay for her wedding, including hiring a very expensive wedding planner, Franck, who wants to spend George’s money to realize Annie’s dreams. Not everything goes according to plan, but George will do anything — including hold the wedding afterparty at his small Pasadena house — to make sure his little girl gets the send-off she deserves.

Diane Keaton stars as George’s exasperated wife, Nina, and Kieran Culkin appears as the Banks’ young son, Matty. Directed by Charles Shyler and written by Nancy Meyers, Father of the Bride is a heartwarming comedy about a dad saying goodbye to his child and welcoming the adult woman she’s about to become. It’s funny, it’s sweet and it’s perfect to watch during the idle days of the summer.

‘Molly’s Game’ (2017)

Jessica Chastain won an Oscar for her performance in The Eyes of Tammy Faye, but she deserved one for her terrific work in the poker thriller, Molly’s Game. Chastain stars as Molly Bloom, a former professional skier who gets involved with illegal gambling when an injury sidelines her athletic career. At first, she partners with Dean (Jeremy Strong) and helps him run his illegal side hustle, but soon, she’s operating her own backroom poker games that attract the enigmatic Player X (Michael Cera) and various members of the Russian and Italian mafia. Molly makes a lot of money very quickly, but she also gets into trouble with the FBI, who want to put her away for a long time. Is this one game she can’t win?

There’s a reason why Taylor Sheridan‘s television empire has become so expansive. The tentacles of Sheridan’s artistic vision, notably the various spin-offs of his crown jewel, Yellowstone, have ostensibly become the backbone of Paramount’s entire streaming library. Regardless of his political beliefs, Sheridan has tapped into the American Midwest in a way that is often ignored by prestige TV. One of his most recent triumphs on the small screen, Lioness, sees Sheridan tackling a familiar sentiment in American media throughout the century: the war on terror. Initially positioned as a new take on government intervention in the Middle East, Lioness, starring Zoe Saldaña as the leader of a CIA program to thwart terrorist plots, focused on the drug cartel and its intersection with government affairs overseas. Without trying to predict the future, Sheridan’s writing has eerily mirrored real-life headlines involving U.S. action against the drug trade.

‘Lioness’ Season 2 Inadvertently Predicted Real-Life Political Events

Season 1 of Lioness follows Joe McNamara (Saldaña) as she leads a covert CIA unit comprised of women to thwart terrorist groups in the Middle East — a familiar concept, given the typical Sheridan touch, that makes it feel fresh and revelatory about top-secret military operations. Now heading into its third season, premiering on August 2, Lioness has unexpectedly embraced a new kind of drama thanks to its timeliness. Centered around the international drug trade, Season 2 features the Lioness squad embarking on an extraction of a kidnapped high-ranking government official and infiltrating cartels to serve the interests of political forces domestically. The squad’s target is Alvaro Carrillo (Marcus DeAnda), who becomes the focal point of the government’s various espionage tactics and their broader attempt to control economic interests internationally.

Season 2 debuted on October 27, 2024, over a year before the United States launched a military strike in Venezuela and apprehended President Nicolás Maduro on charges of drug trafficking, a striking turn of events that has been one of the many political disputes dividing the nation. For those catching up with Lioness before its Season 3 premiere, Season 2 appears to be a dramatic reinterpretation of events ripped from the headlines, but Sheridan actually beat the political cycle to the punch.

Taylor Sheridan Taps Into the Heart of the Contemporary U.S. Military in ‘Lioness’

As a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience, Sheridan discussed his writing process for Season 2. However, he denied any attempt to predict the future and said the decision to center the season around such eerily timely matters was purely coincidental. If anything, his scripts were merely an educated guess about the current state of political affairs overseas. Despite his prominence in television as a voice for middle America, particularly audiences in red states, Sheridan has vowed that he approaches his work without a political agenda, with Lioness meant to be a literal dissection of the relationship between intelligence agencies and the military.

There’s been plenty of discussion surrounding Sheridan’s alleged political beliefs and how they are reflected in his Westerns, crime and war thrillers, and dramas about oil tycoons. Regardless of where he stands or whether he sympathizes with his characters, there’s no doubt Sheridan resonates with the mainstream public, and his wealth of new shows on Paramount speaks to the demand for more of his stories. Although it has been proven to predict real news stories, Lioness is rooted in an understanding of modern U.S. history and the nation’s dealings overseas, as the series echoes 2000s-era media coverage of the Iraq War and the murky divide between patriotic vengeance and the protection of the oil trade.

Whatever your preconceived notions of Sheridan’s work, both seasons of Lioness end not with a sense of rah-rah jingoism, but instead with a sobering indictment of the American military-industrial complex. In Season 1, our idyllic heroes realize they’re only fighting over oil, and in Season 2, the grueling labor and hardships to overthrow the cartel are futile, as someone else on the ladder will take over Carrillo’s throne. Conservative or not, Sheridan has tapped into the cynicism of the American spirit in 2026.

There’s something undeniably classic about a denim button-down — but not when it feels stiff, bulky or boxy. If you’ve ever peeled off a rigid jean shirt after a few hours, you’re not alone.

British pop star Lily Allen has a few words to say to her critics. 

The singer is defending her current live concert series against complaints regarding ticket prices and the total length of the event, making it clear that she put a lot of work into it. 

The singer has been traveling since the spring for a special concert series centered completely on her most recent musical release, “West End Girl.”

Allen is standing up for her live musical production after an audience member openly complained about her short set on social media. During the show, she sang all fourteen songs from the record back-to-back while delivering a solo dramatic performance on stage. 

However, a fan who went to her London arena show expressed disappointment over paying £86 for a seat to see a performance that lasted under an hour without any crowd interaction or an opening musical group.

The pop star quickly fired back online to clear up the misunderstandings. Taking to X, she clarified that the event has always been explicitly promoted as a full performance of the specific album and also explained that she was a few minutes late due to a wardrobe emergency. 

Addressing her silence toward the crowd, Allen noted that keeping the imaginary barrier up is a deliberate creative choice that helps her act out the emotional themes of the music. 

“It’s my artistic choice not to talk to the audience; the fourth wall helps with the storytelling,” she explained. 

The artist concluded, stating she never wants her audience members to feel cheated, writing, “I don’t want anyone to feel ripped off; everyone on this tour is working really hard to give people the best show we possibly can, and I’m extremely proud of it.”

What David Harbour Said About His Former Partner’s Newest Project

Allen’s statements came a few weeks after her former partner, David Harbour, broke his silence on how he feels about “West End Girl.” He addressed the public chatter surrounding the record, which many listeners believed directly detailed the breakdown of their marriage. 

Listeners quickly pointed out a specific track describing a distant and unfaithful partner, leading to internet rumors about the television actor. However, the star admitted that while the situation felt “weird,” every creative individual has the right to use their personal hardships to make art.

“I do believe that it is the privilege of every artist to use their experience to create art, and so I respect her for doing that,” he said, per The Blast. 

Lily Allen’s High Spending Sparked Fan Backlash

As Harbour defended Allen’s creative liberty, the singer found herself on the receiving end of more backlash from fans who shifted their criticism from her music to her spending habits. 

According to The Blast, a video surfaced showing the pop star pulling stacks of money directly from an expensive handbag to buy a $15,000 bracelet and $25,000 diamond earrings. 

This lavish shopping spree heavily frustrated social media users, especially since the musician previously confessed to entering professional therapy to treat a serious shopping addiction where she spent money recklessly.

Disappointed fans flooded the internet to label her behavior as deeply insensitive to regular working people given the tough global financial climate. 

Lily Allen Appreciated Fans For Supporting Her Newest Release

This financial controversy and the criticism of her shopping habits occurred just months after the performer openly expressed her appreciation to her followers for supporting her music during a deeply painful period in her life.

Late last year, she revealed that the massive public reception to her heartbreak project offered a true sense of comfort as she processed her emotional wounds, per The Blast. 

The singer confessed she felt overwhelmed and thankful for the viral success of the tracks, while also disclosing that the painful separation had originally driven her to check into an expensive recovery clinic that cost thousands of dollars per week.

David Harbour’s Alleged Fling Was Reportedly Booted From A Party

While Allen was focused on recovering from the emotional damage caused by her failed relationship, she was seemingly surrounded by close friends who went to great lengths to defend her even in her absence. 

According to The Blast, a woman associated with Harbour following his split from Allen was reportedly asked to leave a private party full of Allen’s closest friends. 

Although the pop star herself was not present at the gathering, her tight-knit circle of allies quickly recognized the uninvited guest, and she was reportedly told to leave.

YouTuber Connor Franta came out to his hundreds of thousands of subscribers over 10 years ago, and today, he’s reflecting on the moment and sharing how that shaped who he is. In a new interview, the “A Work in Progress” author looked back on his video—which has over 12 million views today—and got candid about how the support from his family, friends, and the online community helped him navigate a challenging time in his life.

Speaking with PEOPLE, Franta, 33, looked back on his coming out video, saying that he told his audience of subscribers shortly after telling someone else in his life for the first time that he was gay. He called the experience “a very fast-tracked process,” adding that his coming out was very reflective of who he is as a person.

“I mean, in many ways that is kind of who I am as a person that once I want to go for something or once I accept something or I have a goal or a mission, it’s kind of hard for me to not just seek it out. So I think once I’d come out to one person and then my family and then my friends, it was like, ‘Well, why wouldn’t I just come out to everyone? This is just what it is,’” he said.

Why Did Connor Franta Choose To Come Out In A YouTube Video?

By the time Franta came out, the content creator had been making videos online for years and had a dedicated group of fans. He told PEOPLE that keeping this part of himself “hidden” didn’t really make sense, adding that his “life was my career.”

“I think it was the perfect combination that everything was growing — content was king,” he said.

Reflecting on it today, Franta is glad he chose to speak freely about his life, saying he was met with “unfiltered joy and support” from those around him, including his family, friends, teammates, and subscribers.

“The fact that I was welcomed, I think that shaped who I am today in many ways, and that my experience could have been completely different,” he said.

“I remember receiving not only positive from the community, but the gay community at large. I got a lot of messages and a lot of people offering me support or friendship. I remember I was five trending Twitter topics at the same time,” he continued.

Connor Franta’s Coming Out Video Has Millions Of Views

For those who haven’t seen the video yet, Franta’s coming out post has racked up millions of views and nearly 160,000 comments since it was first posted over 10 years ago.

“2014 is truly the year that I have accepted who I am and become happy with that person, so today I want to talk to you guys about that and be open and honest and tell you that I’m gay,” the influencer said on camera.

He captioned the video, “I hope this doesn’t change a thing.”

And it clearly hasn’t, as the content creator has 4.73 million subscribers on YouTube and 3.8 million followers on Instagram.

His loyal fanbase has only provided the YouTuber with more opportunities, such as partnering with Apple to run in the London Marathon, where he completed the trek in 3:30:42.

This Reality Star Recently Came Out As Bisexual

Speaking of coming out, The Blast reported on “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star Layla Taylor recently sharing with her followers that she’s “gay and bi.”

On Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast, the mother of two said that she’d been living with the secret for some time, but finally felt confident enough to share it with others.

“I’ll be d-mned if I’m not able to fully be who I am,” she said.

What Prompted Taylor To Speak About Her Bisexuality?

As the conversation continued, Taylor told Shetty that although she had previously only dated men, her recent breakup with Mason McWhorter prompted her to explore a new side of herself.

“Honestly, I went through a breakup at the beginning of this year, and I feel like for just a long period of my life, I was constantly living my life for other people,” she said. “Whether that was being a mom or I was in a marriage at one point, I was married. And I just feel like I was always fulfilling other people around me. And it honestly just caused me to never really focus on myself and never be able to really just sit alone with who I am as a person… And I think honestly that breakup was like a blessing in disguise because I feel like now I’ve been fully able to just focus on Layla. And yeah, just focus on who I truly am.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice’s daughter, Milania Giudice, was allegedly “throwing things” at her mother’s house before her assault arrest earlier this month, police claim.

Milania’s sister Gabriella Giudice called police in Montville Township, New Jersey, on May 14 to report that Milania, 20, was “acting erratically,” according to the arrest report obtained by Us Weekly on Tuesday, June 30. Gabriella, 21, told the dispatcher that her sister had been “throwing food [and] candles,” although the alleged victim was not named. No weapons or injuries were reported.

According to the report, Milania was placed in handcuffs at the time of arrest. Her vehicle was searched “before and after transport.”

The location of the arrest was listed in the report as Teresa’s New Jersey home.

TMZ was first to report the arrest details. Us reached out to Milania’s legal reps for comment.

Despite this accusation, the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until she has been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.”

A hearing was held on May 19, but no plea was entered.

Few psychological thrillers have left a mark on pop culture quite like 1987’s Fatal Attraction. Equal parts cautionary tale and nerve-shredding suspense, the film transformed a seemingly ordinary affair into one of cinema’s most unforgettable stories of obsession, helping define the thriller genre for an entire generation.

A Deadly Affair

Fatal Attraction shows audiences what happens when a man steps out on his wife with the wrong woman, leading to his life being turned completely upside down and the safety of his family threatened.

Attorney Daniel Gallagher (Michael Douglas) meets the attractive Alexandra Forrest (Glenn Close) at a work event and begins what he believes is a brief tryst with her while his wife Beth (Anne Archer) and daughter Ellen (Ellen Hamilton Latzen) are away visiting Beth’s family.

The fling’s intensity goes from zero to 100 when Daniel tries to leave Alexandra’s apartment the next day and she gashes open her wrists with a knife in a plea to make him stay.

Got My Mind Set On You

Fatal Attraction sees Daniel stay with his obviously disturbed new friend overnight as he wants to make certain that she’s okay. Days later, she shows up at his office and invites him out on a date, but he rejects her. Not taking a hint, Alexandra begins to continuously phone Daniel at work, prompting the lawyer to have his secretary block all incoming calls from her.

But Alexandra just can’t take no for an answer. She begins to stalk her former lover at his home, telling him that she is pregnant with his child. When this ploy fails, the jilted Alexandra becomes destructive and violent.

Things Turn Violent

Fatal Attraction lives up to its name as it follows Alexandra vandalizing Daniel’s car, stalking his wife, and unleashing her fury on one of his daughter’s pets. The film shows a once docile Alexandra spiral completely out of control, leaving audiences to wonder whether or not the unfaithful Daniel will be able to escape her lunacy with his life.

While Michael Douglas gives audiences a performance worthy of praise, Glenn Close is absolutely brilliant. Fatal Attraction serves as a great vehicle for the actress to show every imaginable emotion on the spectrum with such a heightened level of intensity that it became the role that Close is best known for portraying. For her efforts, she was nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards, losing out to Cher for her role in Moonstruck.

Fatal Attraction was nominated for five other Oscars, though it did not garner any wins. In addition to Close, Archer was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. The film was also a Best Picture nominee, and director Adrian Lyne nearly brought home the coveted gold statue for Best Director.

As of this writing, Fatal Attraction is streaming free with ads on Pluto TV, and without ads through a Paramount+ subscription.

Taylor Swift is reportedly dealing with increased pressure as her highly anticipated wedding to Travis Kelce draws near.

The couple is expected to say “I do” in New York City on July 3, with Madison Square Garden believed to be the location for an event related to their nuptials.

However, as the big day approaches, sources claim Taylor Swift is stressing over the finer details as she and her fiancé are determined to ensure everyone on their massive guest list has the “time of their lives.”

Sources have shared with Star Magazine that Swift is dealing with “stress dreams” over her upcoming wedding.

Even though Swift and Kelce have a huge team of people assisting with the planning of the event that might take place in Madison Square Garden, the couple is said to still be very involved in the process, which is taking a toll on Swift in particular.

“Planning this wedding has become a full-time job and then some,” a source told the publication. “This isn’t a situation where they just gave their planners a mood board and let them go to town. Taylor, in particular, wants a say in everything.”

“They’ve invited so many people, and they want every single one of them to have the time of their lives, so the pressure they’re putting on themselves is enormous,” the source shared, before claiming that Swift has been “having stress dreams about everything from the cake to her dress going wrong.”

The Couple Is Excited About Their Big Day But ‘Can’t Wait For It To Be Over’ Due To The Stress

While things seem to be going smoothly with the couple’s wedding plans, Swift and Kelce were reportedly forced to change their initial venue and location due to security concerns and information leaks.

According to reports, the couple initially had their sights set on Rhode Island before switching to New York City and settling on Madison Square Garden.

Speaking about Swift and Kelce’s desires to keep their wedding details under wraps, a source noted, “They’ve been desperately trying to keep the details a secret until after the fact, so it’s being treated like some sort of military operation.

“Every time something leaks, they end up having to change something,” the source added. “In a lot of ways, they can’t wait for it to be over, so they can stop stressing about it.”
