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.

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.

“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

Sutherland has called off the U.S. portion of his ongoing tour, citing disappointing ticket sales just months after he was involved in an alleged altercation with a rideshare driver.

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.

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.”

Prime Video’s Off Campus premiered in May 2026, and Briar U devotees haven’t stopped pausing, screenshotting and dissecting every frame since.

Off Campus, adapted from Elle Kennedy’s bestselling hockey romance series, follows a group of collegiate athletes balancing life on the rink with their efforts finding love on the campus quad. In season 1, showrunner Louisa Levy loaded all eight episodes with sneaky nods to the beloved book series with a few twists no one saw coming.

Consider this your ultimate cheat sheet to every blink-and-you’ll-miss-it hint:

Prime Video’s Off Campus follows different love stories at Briar U — but which couples end up together in the books? Based on the Off Campus book series by Elle Kennedy, the show follows an elite ice hockey team — and the women in their lives — as they “grapple with love, heartbreak, and self-discovery […]

Tucker’s Fruit Gag Foreshadows Future Season

One of the most-discussed Easter eggs involves Jalen Thomas Brooks‘ character, John Tucker, who spends season 1 pledging Dean (Stephen Kalyn) and Beau Maxwell’s (Khobe Clarke) fraternity. Part of his hazing requires him to care for a piece of fruit — starting with a grape, which is later swapped for a strawberry, banana and watermelon as the season progresses.

Fans quickly connected the gag to The Goal, Tucker’s book in Kennedy’s series, in which his eventual love interest Sabrina James discovers she’s pregnant after a hookup with Tucker. Pregnancies are typically measured weekly by fruit size.

“Apparently someone said Tucker holding a fruit in season 1 is a foreshadow for his season since babies are usually measured by fruit when they’re in the womb,” one fan tweeted in May 2026.

Tucker and Logan’s ‘Dynamic Duos’ Costumes

At Dean and Beau’s joint birthday party, Tucker dresses as a bumblebee and Logan (Antonio Cipriano) dresses as a hawk — a reference to the “birds and the bees” and Tucker and Sabrina’s future child.

“I’m a bumblebee, and then Logan’s a hawk or a bird,” Brooks told Deadline in May 2026. “[It is a] whole play on words was the birds and the bees, which is kind of correlated to both John Logan and John Tucker’s stories, in a sense. Specifically John Tucker’s. There’s a lot of foreshadowing going on in that episode.”

Brooks also teased Tucker’s future to Us Weekly: “You’re gonna see a lot of Tucker becoming this guy that he’s known to be in the books and everything. I’m excited for audiences to see Tucker, [who is] supposed to creep up on people, you know, and have a little bit of romance.”

Beau Maxwell’s Role Expanded 

Clarke’s portrayal of Beau Maxwell — a Briar University football player and friend of the hockey team — has fans emotionally bracing for his onscreen fate. In Kennedy’s novels, Beau dies in a car crash during Sabrina and Tucker’s story, and viewers are already dreading the character’s expected exit.

“I mean, in season 1, we only get, I think, a little taste of Beau, but he does [fill] the screen a little,” Kennedy told Us. “I think that Khobe, he’s such a great actor and he’s the sweetest guy. He had a lot of the little comedic bits in the season.”

According to Kennedy, fans will “fall in love” with Clarke’s Beau before being “eventually devastated.”

Hunter Davenport’s Debut Delivers Major Twist

The season 1 finale introduced Hunter Davenport, played by Charlie Evans, in a major departure from the books. On the page, Hunter doesn’t appear until Dean’s book, The Score, before leading his own book, The Play — though he wasn’t linked to Allie (Mika Abdalla) in either.

The final scene showed Dean arguing with Hunter, with hints the conflict involves Dean’s sister Summer, who previously dated Hunter in high school

“[Hunter’s arrival is] a launching point to hopefully explore some of Dean’s backstory in season 2,” the showrunner told Swooon in May 2026. “But it really was an opportunity to put a little bit of a twist in their story line and prolong it just a little bit, so that we have lots of room to play with them in future seasons. And we also wanted to nod to the book fans that we might have some other characters that you might not expect showing up in fun ways.”

Louisa Levy and Elle Kennedy Explain Adaptation Approach

Levy exclusively told Us Weekly in May 2026 the team prioritized the series’ emotional core over a literal translation.

“We have a lot of stories told in different ways. We have eight episodes instead of the whole book. So we really started with the things that were super nonnegotiable — that without those things it wouldn’t be Off Campus,” the show creator said. “From there, we added as many of the book moments as we could. We dropped them in like Easter eggs.”

Kennedy, who consulted on scripts but didn’t have final creative control, told Us in a separate interview that she was prepared for changes from her source material.

“I went into this knowing they’re going to have to change certain things,” Kennedy said. “Every adaptation has that — especially because the book is written in first person so you’re getting their thoughts a lot. They have to find different ways to show it.”

Season 2 has already been renewed, with production beginning June 2026.

This story was compiled with the help of AI tools and edited by journalists. 

Tara Reid is back in the spotlight, but her latest public appearance has social media users sounding the alarm. The 50-year-old “American Pie” actress stepped out at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival in France on Friday, appearing in good spirits as she posed for cameras and enjoyed the star-studded festivities. But while Tara Reid seemed upbeat during the outing, online reactions quickly took a more concerning turn.

Reid’s appearance comes less than a year after the actress claimed she had been drugged during a frightening night out at a Chicago bar. Despite the harrowing ordeal, the actress appeared to be bouncing back at her latest red carpet appearance in Cannes, smiling for photographers and soaking in the festival atmosphere. However, photos from the event quickly spread online, where some fans voiced concern over the actress’s appearance.

Social media users didn’t hold back as photos of Reid from Cannes began circulating, with many expressing worry about the actress. “She and Britney [Spears] need intervention, booze, drugs, and makeup. Raccoon eyes are never a good look,” one commenter wrote. Another critic bluntly added, “Hot mess as always.”

A third person suggested Reid simply needed a glam refresh, writing, “She needs an intervention. Ideally, by a makeup artist. Her eye shadow looks dreadful. She does not need black eyeshadow to make her eyes pop. Brown would equally do the trick and be softer.”

Others worried Reid may not be doing well behind the scenes. “Not even makeup can hide the way she feels. She doesn’t look well for a long time; now it seems to be worse,” another person commented. Meanwhile, one fan took a softer approach, simply writing, “Sad. Bless you, Tara.”

Reid Previously Claimed She Was Drugged During ‘Scary’ Chicago Ordeal

Reid’s Cannes appearance comes months after the actress spoke out about what she described as a frightening experience at a Chicago-area hotel bar. The “American Pie” star claimed she blacked out after having what she said was just one drink at a hotel near Chicago O’Hare Airport in late 2025 and later woke up in a hospital with little memory of what happened. Reid alleged someone may have tampered with her drink after she briefly stepped away from it.

Speaking about the ordeal afterward, Reid called the experience deeply unsettling. “It’s just really scary. It’s for all – not just girls, but for guys, for anyone. You have to really be careful with your drink,” she said, later adding, “It made me pass out for eight hours.”

Authorities later reviewed surveillance footage from the hotel and said they found no evidence showing anyone tampered with Reid’s drink, though officials noted chemical testing and hospital records were part of the investigation. Reid, however, continued to maintain that something had happened. “That was the scariest feeling I have ever felt,” Reid previously said. “I felt so helpless.”

Tara Reid Detailed Alleged Drugging Incident In Police Report

Additional details surrounding Reid’s alleged drugging incident emerged through a police report filed on November 25, months after the actress said the terrifying experience unfolded during a trip to Chicago. According to the report, Reid claimed she “completely blacked out” after having a drink with a stranger while staying at the DoubleTree Hotel ahead of a celebrity signing event two days earlier.

The actress said she initially tried to file a report after returning home to Los Angeles, but ran into complications. “They said that I could not file one over the phone and had to be there in person,” Reid recalled, later noting she was ultimately able to complete the report without returning to Illinois.

Reid Says Stranger Joined Her Before Alleged Ordeal

In the filing, Reid alleged she had ordered a glass of white wine at the hotel bar when “A man came up to me and introduced himself as Sean P, a very successful influencer and YouTuber,” before joining her for drinks.

The pair later stepped outside for a cigarette and exchanged phone numbers. But according to Reid, something felt off after they returned to the bar. “Once she returned inside, ‘there was a napkin over my drink,’” Reid alleged in the report.

Tara Reid Says She Woke Up In Hospital With ‘No Recollection’

She told police the final moments she remembered before losing consciousness were sitting near another couple and taking another sip of her drink.

“Then the last thing I remember was drinking that drink and seeing a couple sitting next to us,” Reid stated. “The next thing I remember was waking up in the hospital around 8 hours or more later, not knowing where I was or anything that happened. I completely blacked out with no recollection of anything.”

Still, her Cannes appearance has once again put her at the center of online discussion, with many fans hoping the actress is doing okay behind the scenes.

While he is best known for helping to breathe new life into the Star Wars universe by helping to rewrite Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and delivering the universe’s best show ever with Andor, Tony Gilroy has been making terrific genre entertainment in the industry for well over two decades. In addition to earning several Academy Award nominations for his brilliant directorial debut, Michael Clayton, Gilroy was also essential in mapping out the story of the Bourne franchise.

Although his contributions to the galaxy far, far away have given him a greater audience than he ever would have had previously, he does have some underrated films that are worth another look from those that are obsessed with Andor. Gilroy wrote a terrific, old-fashioned political thriller with Beirut, which featured Jon Hamm in what may be his best performance since playing Don Draper on Mad Men.

What Is ‘Beirut’ About?

Hamm stars in Beirut as the retired American diplomat Mason Skiles, who decided to give up serving his company after his wife was killed in a violent incident overseas. Although he has now begun to suffer from severe alcoholism and depression due to the way that his life has panned out, Skiles is approached by members of the American government who ask for his participation in an academic conference in Lebanon. Once he is overseas, Skiles realizes that he was brought for an entirely different purpose; his old ally, Cal Riley (Mark Pellegrino), has been abducted by a group of kidnappers that want one of their prisoners freed as part of a deal. Although any mismanaged negotiations with the rebel forces could lead to disastrous consequences for global politics, the CIA field officer Sandy Crowder (Rosamund Pike) believes that Skiles can help broker an agreement and allow the deal to proceed without any loss of life.

While it is not based directly on real events, Beirut is a fascinating political thriller that examines an interesting period in history by granting merit to multiple perspectives. Although the film shows that American involvement in an overseas political coup could end up doing more harm than good, it also shows why Riley is treated with such importance and why it is important to not set the precedent that American lives can be given up on. Skiles is an interesting protagonist because despite his experience, he actually doesn’t have a dog in the fight; his only interest is to save a friend, to whom he feels he owes a debt of gratitude to because of the many years that they worked together. Skiles’ political ambiguity isn’t only the perfect justification for why he would be involved in such a top-secret assignment, as it also helps to make him a more interesting protagonist.

‘Beirut’ Shows Why Jon Hamm Is a Movie Star

Hamm is perfectly believable in the role of a seasoned diplomat; in the same way that he made all of Don’s pitch meetings feel completely authentic in Mad Men, Hamm is able to ensure that Skiles feels like he is perfectly attuned to help diffuse any toxic situations when he is forced to negotiate with the Lebanese. Although the film works purely as an exercise in espionage fiction, it also serves as a powerful story about grief and redemption. Skiles feels burned by the world and blames himself for putting duty over saving someone that he cares about; although he is initially resistant to signing up for another dangerous mission within an international conflict, he comes to realize that Riley would easily be killed or injured if he did not become involved in setting him free.

Beirut required some of Hamm’s charisma to make the story more enthralling, as Gilroy never attempts to dilute his material by making it less complicated; while it contains the same level of political intrigue and conspiracy mysteries as the Bourne films, it does not have the same type of action that could intrigue more casual viewers. Nonetheless, Hamm does a great job at showing how Skiles is tested by each situation and what his personal motivations are. Although Mad Men had proven that he was already a wonderful actor, Beirut showed that those skills were equally applicable to his work in film.
