The Secret Service confirmed that an alleged shooter who opened fire at Secret Service agents near the White House has died.

An agency spokesperson also announced on Saturday, May 23, that a bystander was injured during the violent incident and is currently in critical condition. The suspected shooter — who has not been named publicly — allegedly opened fire at a Secret Service checkpoint at 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington D.C., though no agents were injured.

“Shortly after 6 p.m. Saturday, an individual in the area of 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue pulled a weapon from his bag and began firing,” Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi told Us Weekly on Saturday. “Secret Service Police returned fire, striking the suspect who was transported to an area hospital where he was pronounced deceased. During the shooting, one bystander was also struck by gunfire.”

The statement concluded, “No injuries were sustained by officers. The President [Donald Trump] was in the White House during the incident, however no protectees or operations were impacted. The incident remains under investigation and additional information will be released as it becomes available.”

Shocking new video footage shows the moment shots rang out at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last weekend.

CNN reported that investigators matched the name of the suspected shooter with someone they’d had “multiple encounters with in and around the White House.”

Us has reached out to the White House and Secret Service for comment.

Earlier in the night, a Secret Service spokesperson confirmed to Us that the agency was “gathering information and will have more on this incident shortly.”

“FBI is on the scene and supporting Secret Service responding to shots fired near White House grounds – we will update the public as we’re able,” FBI Director Kash Patel tweeted a short time later.

White House reporters were on the premises when gunfire broke out. They were quickly rushed into the briefing room and locked down for around 40 minutes, per multiple outlets.

“I was in the middle of taping on my iPhone for a social video from the White House North Lawn when we heard the shots,” ABC News White House correspondent Selina Wang tweeted at the time. “It sounded like dozens of gunshots. We were told to sprint to the press briefing room where we are holding now.”

The incident took place less than one month after shots broke out at the Washington Hilton during the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25.

President Donald Trump praised first lady Melania Trump’s reaction to a shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. “I want to thank the first lady, that was a rather traumatic experience for her,” Trump, 79, told reporters from the White House on Saturday, April 25. “We’re not going to let anybody take over our society, […]

Cole Tomas Allen allegedly shot a Secret Service agent in their protective vest during the crossfire, with the agent being rushed to a local hospital for treatment. (Trump told reporters in a briefing that the Secret Service agent was saved by his security vest.)

Allen, 31, was later charged with attempting to assassinate the president, interstate transportation of weapons and discharge of a firearm during a violent crime and pleaded not guilty during a May 11 court hearing.

Although he’s been a fond favorite on British screens for many decades, thanks in no small part to his iconic role as the foul-mouthed government spin-doctor Malcolm Tucker in Armando Iannucci‘s The Thick of It, Peter Capaldi‘s popularity in the U.S. would finally come when he was cast as the titular Time Lord in the iconic sci-fi series Doctor Who. During his fondly remembered run, Capaldi helped steer the series into more mature and darker territory, in what is now considered a misunderstood period for the show.

Since his time in the TARDIS, Capaldi has been part of some critically acclaimed series, although few have proven quite as popular as Apple TV’s Criminal Record. Paul Rutman‘s British crime thriller scored impressive figures in its first season, including a reported 12.63 million viewers per episode globally, and a second season became quickly inevitable. That second season finally debuted earlier this year, with Cush Jumbo and Capaldi’s Detective Sergeant June Lenker and Detective Chief Inspector Daniel Hegarty returning for a more politically charged second installment.

Despite having to go head-to-head with some of Apple TV’s most popular shows, including the beloved comedy-drama Shrinking, a second season of the Jon Hamm-led Your Friends and Neighbors, and the hugely popular new series Margo’s Got Money Troubles, Criminal Record has held its own, regularly finding a place inside the streaming top ten. At the time of writing, the show has hit its best milestone yet, officially passing the 100-day mark on the Apple TV charts in the U.S.

What’s Next for ‘Criminal Record’?

Following the explosive fifth episode this past Wednesday, Criminal Record will return on May 27 for Episode 6, “When the Music Stops.” Directed by Joelle Mae David, the episode is sure to kick the second season into its final gear with just three episodes left. A synopsis for the episode reads, “After the chaos in the woods, Billy goes dark; Operation Samphire hangs by a thread.” But what will happen to the show after the June 10 finale? Although Apple TV hasn’t yet committed to a third season, hope is high that this twisty thriller will return again, with star Jumbo even saying in a recent interview when asked about a third season, “We would love it, but it’s not up to us!”

Criminal Record is available to stream on Apple TV, and continues this Wednesday. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Last September, the world lost another Hollywood icon when it was confirmed that Robert Redford had passed away aged 89. Following his breakout performance in 1969’s Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Redford starred in countless great movies, such as 1975’s Three Days of the Condor, followed one year later by All the President’s Men, and 1985’s Out of Africa alongside Meryl Streep. Across his sixty-year career, Redford scored an Academy Award win for Best Director and even earned the Academy’s prestigious Honorary Award in 2002.

With countless entries in his filmography, from starring roles to directorial efforts, Redford’s movies regularly circle on the streaming charts. However, at a time when the usual suspects often crack the top ten, one of his more underrated modern performances has become an unlikely streaming favorite. The film in question is the modern Western drama An Unfinished Life, released in 2005, which stars Redford as a recovering alcoholic who is reacquainted with his daughter, with the pair learning to heal old wounds.

Also starring Morgan Freeman and Jennifer Lopez, the Lasse Halström-directed feature was cruelly underrated by critics at the time, although famed critic Roger Ebert saw the sparkling gem beneath the poor reviews, praising the screenplay for being “modest and heartfelt” in his 3/4 review. Over two decades on and, in the shadow of Redford’s passing, An Unfinished Life is earning its flowers. At the time of writing, the movie is one of the ten most-streamed on Paramount+ in the U.S., a list currently topped by Mckenna Grace‘s 2026 body horror comedy Slanted.

‘An Unfinished Life’ Was a Box Office Flop

As a consequence of studio restructuring at Miramax and other outside forces, An Unfinished Life faced many delays in the lead-up to release, with some fearing that the film’s title would manifest into a reality. This, plus a frustratingly limited theatrical release, left the film doomed from the start of its theatrical run. Against a reported budget of $30 million, An Unfinished Life earned just $18.5 million worldwide, split between a domestic haul of $8.5 million and a further $10 million from overseas markets. At its peak, the film was available in just 888 locations nationwide, earning no more than $2 million in domestic revenue on its most fruitful weekend.

An Unfinished Life is streaming on Paramount+. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for more of the latest streaming stories.

There’s no stopping the Taylor Sheridan universe. The cowboy connoisseur has a knack for television, looping audiences in with contemporary stories of the American Wild West, where real business is often conducted in plain sight — but under a veil of discretion. Whether it’s the past or present, the way of the ranch is a timeless culture.

In recent years, Sheridan has expanded beyond his Yellowstone roster, exploring other genres outside the traditional cowboy story. While some of his shows really get into the action and intensity, others place greater emphasis on character and storytelling depth. Without further ado, here are all the Taylor Sheridan shows, ranked by action. Note: we opted not to include The Road since it’s a reality competition show; the most action happening on it is singing.

11

‘The Madison’ (2026–Present)

Image via Paramount+

It’s never a nice feeling to be an outsider in your own family. The Madison follows the Clyburn family, who move from New York City to Montana’s Madison River Valley after a tragic plane crash takes the lives of Stacy’s husband and his brother. Staying at a remote ranch near Bozeman, Stacy (Michelle Pfeiffer) struggles to cope with her loss, all while the world refuses to pause for her.

Loyal Yellowstone fans might be in for a surprise with The Madison. Instead of the usual action-driven plot, much of the slow-burning conflict comes from getting over a personal tragedy. Grief can be difficult when everyone’s hurting, especially when they’re not on the same page. It might not be a cowboy’s cup of tea, but for those who enjoy bittersweet countryside sentimentality, The Madison is the right show.

10

‘Landman’ (2024–Present)

Image via Paramount+

There’s a reason why oil prices keep rising, and it often comes at a human cost. Landman is set in the oilfields of West Texas, where roughnecks and billionaires fight to get their share of the booming industry. At the center is Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton), a strict M-Tex executive caught between corporate power players in skyscrapers and the riggers who risk their lives on the oil fields every day.

Landman only turns to violence when necessary, usually to deal with outlaws. Although the action intensifies when the drug cartel is involved, it only happens later in the series. Most of the story is corporate-driven, with M-Tex facing a financial crisis after a destroyed offshore rig. Instead of physical fistfights, much of the battle happens in boardrooms — think negotiations, backstabbing, and scapegoating.

9

‘1883’ (2021–2022)

Image via Paramount+

Hailed as the origin story of Yellowstone, 1883 may not feature the same confrontational action as Sheridan’s more contemporary works. Aside from the occasional bandit attack, the series is more focused on the Dutton ancestors’ fight for survival as they settle in what would eventually become Yellowstone. It is a family journey, only one filled with danger at every turn.

With only horses and caravans to carry them across the frontier, 1883 delivers a gritty and grounded take on the American Wild West, particularly the brutal realities of surviving the Oregon Trail before finally settling for Montana. Human threats are only part of the struggle. Nature itself becomes the main enemy, alongside disease, exhaustion, and sudden loss. While 1883 may not rely on nonstop deadly action, it remains heartbreaking nonetheless.

8

‘1923’ (2022–2025)

Image via Paramount+

While Yellowstone deals with land disputes involving the rich and powerful, and 1883 is about the Duttons settling their roots, 1923 is a historical epic about survival, colonialism, and generational trauma. Jacob Dutton (Harrison Ford) and Cara Dutton (Helen Mirren), now in their elder years, leave much of the fighting to the ranch hands as they struggle to keep their land intact within their limited capacity.

But 1923 promises far more brutal action on the other side of the world: Africa. The wildlife in Kenya is far deadlier than anything in Montana, and Spencer constantly finds himself fending off raging elephants, leopards, and lions. Fighting humans is difficult enough, but animals do not care about morality or mercy — to them, you are just flesh waiting to be consumed.

7

‘Dutton Ranch’ (2026–Present)

Image via Paramount+

Picking up right after the Yellowstone finale, Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Dutton (Cole Hauser) move to South Texas in the aftermath of a wildfire engulfing the Montana wildlife. Together with their adopted son, Carter (Finn Little), the family starts anew by purchasing a new ranch. However, not everyone is happy with the new competition, especially the highly pragmatic 10 Petal Ranch owner, Beulah Jackson (Annette Bening).

Considering that the two are outsiders, the much calmer Beth and Rip conduct business as civilly as possible. However, that doesn’t mean they aren’t still as strict and stern as ever. Given that it’s still early in the show at the time of writing, the action hasn’t fully ramped up yet. Still, with characters like Beulah’s wildcard son and Carter, who isn’t afraid to tackle an abusive man, Dutton Ranch knows exactly when to be soft and when to turn violent.

6

‘Lawmen: Bass Reeves’ (2023)

Image via Paramount+

Based on the real-life lawman who reportedly made more than 3,000 arrests, Lawmen: Bass Reeves follows the near-mythic figure as he becomes one of the first Black deputy U.S. Marshals west of the Mississippi River. The series plays out as both a historical recount and a character study, tracing Reeves from his beginnings in slavery to his rise as a feared and respected lawman on the frontier.

Much of Reeves’ work involves lengthy investigations, tracking fugitives across dangerous territory. However, the series wastes no time reminding viewers that Reeves is an expert marksman capable of turning a standoff violent in seconds. Shootouts, ambushes, fistfights, and tense manhunts all become part of the job, and when the law doesn’t side with men like Reeves, things can get ugly once in a while.

5

‘Marshals’ (2026–Present)

Image via CBS

When you put a rancher like Kayce Dutton (Luke Grimes) back into the field, things can get messy. A former U.S. Navy SEAL, Kayce goes back to his roots in Marshals following the death of his wife. To cope with his grief, he took the opportunity to serve as a U.S. Marshal. Unlike Yellowstone, where Kayce follows an unspoken code within the ranch and his family, he is now completely on his own as he is thrown into the deep end of protecting Montana.

Marshals wastes no time throwing Kayce into dangerous operations, including investigating a possible terror attack on the Broken Rock Indian Reservation. Unlike in Yellowstone, where he was often pushed around by his family, Kayce’s moral code is now the law. Although not quite as abrasive as what he’s accustomed to during the Yellowstone days, Marshals promises a generous amount of shootouts, horse chases, and explosions.

4

‘Tulsa King’ (2022–Present)

Image via Paramount+

Tulsa King might start off with a classic New York Mafia premise, but for a gangster crime drama, it is surprisingly more on the lighthearted side. After being imprisoned for 25 years, Dwight “The General” Manfredi (Sylvester Stallone) expects to be treated like a hero for never snitching on his bosses all those years. Instead, he gets exiled to the middle-of-nowhere Tulsa, Oklahoma, forced to build his own business from scratch.

Anyone familiar with the mob genre knows how specific those action scenes usually are: slick, claustrophobic, and more interested in prolonging pain before finally killing somebody. But much of Tulsa King also revolves around Dwight building a crew of misfits who hilariously do not always get along. Still, when they lock in together, they pull off lively, tightly choreographed fights full of grappling, shootouts, and perfectly timed takedowns.

3

‘Yellowstone’ (2018–2024)

Everyone — literally everyone — is beating the living lights out of each other in Yellowstone. Following John Dutton III (Kevin Costner) and his exceptionally different adult children, the series makes one thing painfully clear: everybody is capable of physically fending for themselves, whether they are ranchers working the land or corporate players fighting from behind office desks. Above all else, their main priority is protecting the ranch from vulture enterprises and corporations trying to seize it for themselves.

On their best days, they get into fistfights outside the family home or deliver casual beatings to remind enemies who is in charge. At their worst, rival gangs send men to literally tear through their offices, leaving behind bloody trails of bodies. It does not matter whether it happens in a store in broad daylight or a bar in the dead of night — one wrong move, and you are gone.

2

‘Mayor of Kingstown’ (2021–Present)

Mike McClusky (Jeremy Renner) is not someone to be messed with in Mayor of Kingstown. Unlike Sheridan’s usual lineup of cowboys and countryside dramas, the crime thriller follows Mike as he becomes the unofficial “mayor” — or rather, the fixer — of the fictional Kingstown, a place that feels less like a home and more like a company town built on incarceration.

A former inmate himself, Mike knows how to keep the criminal underworld from spiraling out of control. With seven prison systems within a 10-mile radius, he is always one arm’s length away from pulling a gun, slamming somebody into the ground, or getting nearly stabbed. But the scariest part of Mayor of Kingstown’s violence is that it stems from a corrupt prison system that fails to rehabilitate the incarcerated.

Game of Thrones alum Hannah Murray says she suffered a catastrophic psychotic break after joining a wellness cult.

“It’s easy to go, ‘Well, that would never happen to me,’ but we do ourselves a disservice when we start saying that, because you don’t know,” Murray, 36, told The Guardian in an interview published on Saturday, May 23. “I had no idea I was going togo through any of the things in the book. I would’ve assumed I couldn’t, that I was safe. I was well educated, from a middle-class family; everything should have been fine.”

She continued, “I thought, “I’m smart. I make good choices.’ Well, I made terrible choices. But it’s important to understand why people do these things, rather than going, ‘Oh, they must be idiots.’ Or, ‘How stupid could you be?’”

Murray, who appeared in 25 episodes of the hit HBO series across Seasons 2 through 8 as Gilly, declined to name the wellness cult she says she joined at age 27, instead only referring to it as the “organization.” She told the outlet she was introduced to the cult via a so-called “energy healer,” who she met through her personal trailer on the set of Detroit.

One Tree Hill alum Bethany Joy Lenz revealed she was in a cult for a decade, and she hopes that her experience can eventually help others. “I was in a cult for 10 years,” Lenz, 42, shared on the Monday, July 10, episode of iHeartRadio’s “Drama Queens” podcast. “That would be a really valuable experience […]

“My own experience felt highly eroticized, without anything explicitly physical happening,” she said of her experience in the alleged cult. “There was just this charge to the energy in the room. I think there often is in these hierarchical spiritual organizations. I found it interesting that it was a primarily quite female space — the teachers, the healer — and then this man walks in and he’s incredibly confident and magnetic. The first thing he says is a joke about sex. From this quite floaty, quite gentle, wishy-washy energy, it was suddenly, like, ‘Hey, I’m here,’ and, ‘Let’s f***.’ I think he was doing that deliberately.”

The leader of the wellness cult, also not named by Murray, allegedly wrote a “symbolic necklace and carried a giant Starbucks cup” with him everywhere he went. The actress spent thousands of dollars to obtain “wisdom and specialness,” but ultimately suffered a psychotic episode so intense that she was admitted to a psychiatric unit and, later, diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

She documented her experience in her new book, The Make Believe: A Memoir of Magic and Madness, and today stays away from all things wellness industry-related.

“Even the tame stuff can feel quite distressing,” she explained. “I don’t meditate any more. I wouldn’t go into a crystal shop. I don’t do yoga, because I don’t quite know what might come up that might feel a bit too woo-woo for my personal threshold. But I realize now how pervasive it is. How often people you don’t know will offer it as a remedy.”

She added, ‘You’ll say, ‘I’m not really sleeping,’ and they’ll say, ‘Have you tried meditation?’ It’s everywhere, seen as an inherently positive solution. And there are harmless or positive versions. But as someone looking for something to fix me entirely, a magic wand or silver bullet, the promise felt seductive and addictive.”

For the past couple of months, Prime Video has been dominated by the final installment of Eric Kripke‘s beloved superhero satire, The Boys. Karl Urban‘s Billy Butcher, Jack Quaid‘s Hughie Campbell, Antony Starr‘s Homelander, et al. have been busy dialing the drama and action up to 11 for the fifth season, with the bold chaos coming to an explosive end this past week. Ending on “a rushed but mostly satisfying note,” according to Collider’s review of the finale by Nate Richard, Prime Video is ready to enter its post-The Boys era, and one series is already flying that flag.

The show in question is the acclaimed Off Campus, based on Elle Kennedy‘s book series, which is being dubbed by many as the perfect replacement for HBO Max’s Heated Rivalry. The series features a stellar ensemble, including leads Ella Bright (The Crown) and Belmont Cameli (Until Dawn), alongside Josh Heuston (Dune: Prophecy), Antonio Cipriano (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin), Jalen Thomas Brooks (The Pitt), Mika Abdalla (The Pitt), and Stephen Kalyn (Gen V). Off Campus debuted on Prime Video on May 13, dropping all eight episodes at once, and scoring immediate popularity across the world.

Just over a week since the show’s premiere, and it continues to rise in popularity. At the time of writing, Off Campus is one of the most-watched shows on Prime Video in the U.S., as well as the second-most-watched show in the world, behind the aforementioned The Boys. The show ranks as the most-watched on Prime in several countries, including Switzerland, South Africa, and Canada, and is expected to climb to the global #1 spot as the dust settles on The Boys‘ finale. Unsurprisingly, the show has already been renewed for Season 2.

How Have Critics Reacted to ‘Off Campus’?

Romantic dramas aimed at older teens often prove divisive among critics. However, Off Campus is breaking that trend by earning near-universal acclaim from both critics and audiences. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the series has scored a near-perfect 93%, with audiences awarding a 90% rating. Collider’s Therese Lacson was full of praise in her review, calling the series “exactly what romance novel lovers want from a TV adaptation.” She continued, “Detractors might call the show cheesy or a guilty pleasure, but for lovers of romance, there’s nothing guilty about it.“

Off Campus Season 1 is available to stream on Prime Video. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Some of the biggest off-screen movie news this month arrived on May 4, as it was announced that Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni‘s legal battle, following their collaboration on It Ends With Us and Lively’s accusation of sexual harassment, had come to an end via a confidential settlement. As the dust settles on the controversy, and fans allow themselves a moment to share their opinion on social media, the time has come to move on and look forward to more adaptations from Colleen Hoover’s catalog.

Since It Ends With Us earned $350 million at the global box office, two more Hoover adaptations have been released. Despite being somewhat overshadowed by its predecessor’s headlines, both films have performed well at the box office, although they fell short of It Ends With Us‘ high heights. Most recently, Reminders of Him, starring Maika Monroe and Tyriq Withers, and directed by Vanessa Caswill, took home $88 million against a production budget of $25 million, despite facing competition from the likes of Scream 7, Wuthering Heights, and the huge sci-fi hit Project Hail Mary.

Last year, the second feature Hoover adaptation, Regretting You, capitalized on the financial success of It Ends With Us by scoring a $90 million haul against a reported budget of $30 million. Starring the likes of Allison Williams, Mckenna Grace, Dave Franco, Mason Thames, Scott Eastwood, Willa Fitzgerald, and Clancy Brown, the film earned a poor reception from critics, dubbed “messy” in Isabella Soares‘ review for Collider, but impressed fans enough to earn an 84% audience score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Seven months later, Regretting You is still impressing fans and has landed as the most-watched movie on Prime Video in the U.S., at the time of writing.

When Is the Next Colleen Hoover Adaptation?

Romance is exchanged for psychological thrills in the next Hoover adaptation, as Verity debuts on the big screen on October 2, 2026. Led by the hugely talented Anne Hathaway, who is now the biggest star to feature in a Hoover adaptation, this eye-catching line-up also features Dakota Johnson, Josh Hartnett, Ismael Cruz Cordóva, and Brady Wagner. The movie is directed by Michael Showalter, who has previously worked with Hathaway on Prime Video’s The Idea of You, which became a big hit for the streamer.

Regretting You is streaming now on Prime Video. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

The U.S. Secret Service is responding to reports of two people being shot near the White House less than one month after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting.

“We are aware of reports of shots fired near 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW and are working to corroborate the information with personnel on the ground. Additional information will be provided as it becomes available,” the Secret Service tweeted on Saturday, May 23.

A Secret Service spokesperson told Us Weekly that the agency was “gathering information and will have more on this incident shortly.”

CNN reported that reporters on the ground heard gunfire coming from the corner of 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest in Washington, D.C., with speculation that the gunfire may have emanated from the Eisenhower Executive Office Building side of the White House.

ABC News White House correspondent Selina Wang shared video of her live report from the premises being interrupted by what appeared to be loud sounds of gunfire. She ducked for cover before the video footage cut off.

“I was in the middle of taping on my iPhone for a social video from the White House North Lawn when we heard the shots,” Yang, 33, tweeted. “It sounded like dozens of gunshots. We were told to sprint to the press briefing room where we are holding now.”

Reporters were reportedly told to shelter in place while locked down in the White House press briefing room.

Us reached out to the White House for comment.

This latest incident occurred just shy of one more after Cole Tomas Allen allegedly opened fire in the lobby of the Washington Hilton during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25. Allen, 31, allegedly struck a Secret Service agent in crossfire before he was apprehended. (The White House later confirmed the Secret Agent was shot in his protective vest but taken to a local hospital for treatment.)

President Donald Trump, first lady Melania Trump, Vice President JD Vance and numerous other administration officials were inside the Washington Hilton ballroom at the time of the shooting and were quickly evacuated.

Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk was seen being rushed from the ballroom in tears moments after the shooting. Kirk, 37, later called the shooting “another traumatic example of the evil in our country and the continued rise in political violence.” (Erika’s husband, conservative activist Charlie Kirk, was fatally shot at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, on September 10, 2025. A 22-year-old man was later charged with aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm, obstruction of justice and witness tampering. He has yet to enter a plea.)

Following Allen’s arrest, he was charged with attempting to assassinate the president, interstate transportation of weapons and discharge of a firearm during a violent crime. He pleaded not guilty during a May 11 court hearing.
