Young and the Restless spoilers for next week on the CBS soap, including Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) being arrested, and we expect a couple of more arrests before the week is done. Plus, Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) has a whole new murder plan he’s bringing to Genoa City.

We’re also going to talk about how Victor Newman‘s (Eric Braeden) schemes could literally kill Malcolm Winters (Shemar Moore). Plus, crazy Patty pushes Victor and Diane Jenkins Abbott‘s (Susan Walters) buttons.

Patty Williams Causes Problems on Young and the Restless

So, first, let’s talk about Genoa City’s newest nutcase, Patty Williams. And this past week, Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) had a very unpleasant encounter with Patty, who was blathering to him about her and Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). And you know, Patty thinks they belong together. Meanwhile, Jack was recovering some memories from their time on the yacht that had kind of slipped his mind.

So, he was recalling that he was trying to game Patty when they were on the boat. You know, Jack was thinking about when he said he’d give her a kiss if she gave him a tour. And he’s thinking that he might be able to flip Patty over to be loyal to him to get some payback on Victor. Cause let’s be real, Patty could cause serious problems for Victor if Jack can convince her to testify against Victor in the matter of his kidnapping.

Y&R Spoilers: Diane & Victor Annoyed

So, the week ahead, we’ve got Diane and Victor sitting at the bar at the GCAC. I don’t know if they went together or just wound up there together, griping about their spouses. And then Patty strolls up and says hello to them and asks if this day can get any better. I think that Victor is underestimating the risk that Patty poses to him as long as she’s in Genoa City because Victor already reminded Patty, don’t tell anybody they work together when he gave her that big bag of cash as payment for ripping apart Jack and Diane‘s marriage.

Multiple Arrests Coming on Young and the Restless

Now, let’s talk about Victor’s other awful antics and the one arrest that we know for sure is coming, but possibly up to three arrests. So, at the end of this week, Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) and Lauren Fenmore (Tracey E. Bregman) met with Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) because Phyllis was expecting Michael to be her attorney in case Christine Williams Romalotti (Lauralee Bell) decides to prosecute her using the faked evidence. Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) and Victor also discussed that he threatened Michael. He better not represent Phyllis. But that’s exactly what Lauren expects him to do, and his wife wants him to cut ties with Victor once and for all.

So, Michael warned Phyllis that Victor is going to put her in prison. He won’t stop. Phyllis knows the evidence is fake and she told Christine that what they have against her is bogus. And the problem is Cricket told Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian) that no matter what, she has to consider the evidence.

So, Victoria did deliver a stack of fake emails to Christine, who asked Victoria if she realized other people will go down with Phyllis, including her ex-husband, Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson), who is the father of her children. And Victoria’s attitude was, “Oh well, that’s Billy’s problem.” So, Victoria lied and told Christine they found the fake evidence on the Chancellor servers.

Lily Panics on Y&R

So, next week on Young and the Restless, Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) is horrified when the police slap handcuffs on Cane Ashby at the GCAC, and Christine is there overseeing the arrest personally. Cane’s supposed to be heading to New York to donate bone marrow to save Malcolm’s life. So, Lily is spiraling about how this can’t be happening. And Cane vows to Lily that Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan), his lawyer, will get him out on bail and he’ll make sure that he gets to New York in time to donate to save Malcolm.

With Cane arrested, I suspect that means Billy, who is newly engaged to pregnant Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope), is likely also going to be arrested. And if they go down, Phyllis is also likely going to be arrested, which is going to upset Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) and maybe even his dad, Danny.

I’m very curious if Amanda made a backup of the AI data before she deleted it. Remember Cane told her to delete it and in the meantime, Phyllis had, you know, moved the assets, but Amanda was in charge of deleting the AI. So, she might actually have evidence against Victor because honestly, the man needs a huge slap from karma for everything he has done.

So, we got one confirmed arrest, likely more than that. And with Malcolm’s life on the line, I wonder if Victoria is going to show any humanity at all and for once not enable her father. I kind of doubt it. But Johnny and Katie may not be happy with her. I also wonder if Sally being pregnant causes Victoria any crisis of conscience.

Matt Clark’s New Murder Plan on Young and the Restless

And now let’s talk about Matt Clark’s new murder plan. So, it turns out Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun) really thought she killed Matt, but she did not get the job done. But hey, gave it the old college try, right? By the end of this week, Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) is asking Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) to try and get Sienna to tell her what exactly happened with Matt. Cause it looks like Sienna is freaking out. She’s shutting down. She is scared she’s going to be arrested for killing Matt.

And Noah promises it won’t happen. And then Sharon questions Sienna, who says she tried to talk Matt out of hurting the Newmans. She was trying to talk him out of blowing up the gas station, but he did it anyway. And Sienna kind of freaked out, sort of blacked out, and then next thing she knew, Matt was lying on the ground, not moving.

And Sienna swears that Matt was definitely dead. Obviously, she did it. But Sharon insists that Matt hasn’t turned up dead yet. So, nobody’s found a body. So, Sienna is yelling by the end of this week, insisting that Matt’s dead. And because she’s freaking out, Sharon can’t get any more details out of her.

Y&R Spoilers: Nick’s Still in Trouble

Also, on Friday, Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) confessed to Victor that he’s hooked on fentanyl. And Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) says Nick’s been going to meetings. They all seem to think, “Oh, he’s got this. He’ll be fine.” Nobody, not Victor and not Adam, so far have mentioned Nick needs rehab. So, I’m guessing the addiction story is not quite done. You don’t just walk off a cocaine and fentanyl addiction like it’s nothing. So, Matt may yet to get to see what he wants, which is Nick even deeper into addiction.

Meanwhile, on Friday’s episode, Matt woke up in the desert with a head wound that’s bloody. And in the week of May 4th through the 8th on Young and the Restless, we’ve got Sienna’s toxic husband crawling out of the sand and into a diner. And Matt asked the waitress how far is he from this place?

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Matt’s on Way Back to GC

And he shows the girl a card from the GCAC. So, that means that Matt is about to be on his way to Genoa City. And I’m sure his plan is to kill his wife Sienna for nearly murdering him. I’m betting Matt’s new murder plan is a lot like his old murder plan and also involves killing Noah. And that means Sharon and Nick and Adam also need to watch out, probably Chelsea Lawson (Melissa Claire Egan) as well and probably Victor also needs to worry. So, Matt’s going to be in town soon wreaking havoc as we get deeper into May sweeps.

I will say that the Newmans may suspect that Sienna lied about killing Matt, but at this point I tend to think she really believes that she killed him, but she was kind of in shock and denial. So, Y&R is absolutely getting wild next week and the second full week of May sweeps with arrests and not so dead people crawling back into town. Be sure to check out our full weekly spoilers for May 4th through the 8th, our weekly predictions, two week spoilers, and lots more.

Lizzo is gearing up for the release of a brand-new album, “B-TCH,” set for June 2026. However, after facing accusations from her dancers, the pop songstress has failed to match the commercial success of her previous releases. This includes scrapping a previously planned album. Now, she’s released the title track from the upcoming LP, but social media is rejecting it, calling it yet another flop.

Lizzo released the title track from her new album on May 1. Notably, this comes after the previous track from the album, “Don’t Make Me Love You,” has failed to gain traction on the charts in most parts of the world, especially the U.S.

The songstress took to X to share a snippet of the song’s music video. She said in the caption, “This song is dedicated to the women who get called a b-tch for having boundaries, for being sexual, for speaking up for themselves, for working hard and owning businesses… If we don’t smile and perform all the time, we’re ‘ungrateful.’ If we run a strict program, we’re ‘mean.’”

The music video is shot in black and white, featuring Lizzo with several dancers, all wearing black. Notably, the song interpolates Meredith Brooks‘ 1997 anthem of the same name.

Fans On X Aren’t Loving The Song

Unfortunately for Lizzo, the fans who replied to her X post weren’t pleased with the song, with some even mentioning the allegations made by her dancers. One person said, “Girl, how many ‘anthems’ are you gonna pull out of your a-s? Weren’t you a rapper? I guess that was only for an award.”

Someone else quoted Nicki Minaj, writing, “Hang it up, flat screen.” They then included a GIF of a person doing that very thing. After that, a different X user alluded to her string of failed singles, saying, “Must’ve run out of Velcro cause uhh..Ain’t nothing sticking.”

A different social media user stated, “This sounds really corny, Lizzo. This I’m a thing was everywhere in the Obama administration, and people hated it. Now you reheat it?”

However, it seems fans on Instagram are a bit more welcoming despite some criticism. One person said on the platform, “Welcome back to the top.”

Lizzo Shared The Album Cover In March 2026

Ahead of the release of the new single, Lizzo took to social media. Not only did the “Juice” singer celebrate her birthday, but she also shared her album cover. She said in the caption, “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! To celebrate, I present to you  — MY NEW ALBUM [is] COMING JUNE 5TH. Wanna get me a gift? Pre-order my album, baby!!!!” Lizzo then shared a link for fans to preorder the album.

Regarding the cover, it’s one of the simplest from her discography. It features, over a white background, a hand, complete with long nails, with Lizzo’s position as its middle finger. She also has her arms extended up in a celebratory pose.

According to Apple Music’s listing for the album, “B-TCH” will include 12 tracks. This will be Lizzo’s third album from Nice Life Recording Company/Atlantic.

The Songstress Was Supposed To Release An Album In 2025

Lizzo announced plans for a new studio album in early 2025. The first taste of the new project, a song called “Love in Real Life,” was released in February. The song failed to make a significant impact, and she later released “Still Bad” in March of that year. It enjoyed a bit more commercial success but didn’t come close to becoming the radio hit that major record labels sought before releasing albums.

Then, in September, she spoke to New York Magazine, saying that despite the album being complete, she was unsure if she’d release it. According to Lizzo, “By 2025, I’ve changed, the world has changed so much, and so much has happened.”

She said, regarding the album, “It just wasn’t what I was feeling right now. I was like, ‘I need to do s–t differently, and I don’t know what it is, but I’m going to just start following my instincts.’”

Lizzo Addressed The Public’s Misconceptions About Her

Lizzo appeared on “CBS Mornings” on May 1 to promote “B-TCH.” During the conversation with Gayle King, she was asked what people don’t understand about it. The Yitty founder said, “I think there’s a long list. I think I might be one of the most misunderstood.”

After that, she stated that the public doesn’t understand that she’s “always trying to help.” Lizzo also said that people “tone police” her. She added, “Once I realized that that’s how people are going to take it, I just stopped. I’ll just put it in the music.”

Jayda Cheaves Addresses Accutane & TikTok Criticism

In the clip shared to her TikTok, Jayda stitched a video of a user—who appeared partially off-camera and in bed—questioning what happened to her face while also commenting on aging. The moment didn’t sit well with Jayda, who responded with a pointed “and you ’bout to be a nurse?” paired with a stank face, while recording from her luxury bathroom in a black tank top with hair clips in.

Jayda also went on to explain that she’s currently on Accutane, which she says is helping clear her adult hormonal acne. However, she admits that it comes with noticeable side effects. Jayda shared that she started the medication in January and emphasized that she believes in being open about her skin journey, even on days when things don’t look perfect, because she still shows up online with confidence and self-love.

The Internet Is Clearly Being Nosey In TSR Comments

As soon as the clip hit timelines, folks ran straight to TSR’s Instagram comment section to weigh in with their unfiltered takes. Some called out the nurse in the video for hiding her face while coming for Jayda. While others were quick to gas Jayda up, saying she’s still that girl regardless of what people say. Meanwhile, a portion of users pushed back on the negativity altogether, reminding everyone that people should be a lot kinder when commenting on others’ looks online.

One Instagram user @jniceofficial_ said, “Everybody’s clear skin journey is different. She’s doing what works for her. Next and skin actually looks tea 😍”

She reflected on how some connections have felt more transactional than genuine, admitting that her naturally giving nature has often left her feeling taken advantage of. Fighting back tears, she also took accountability for her experiences, saying, “I fault myself 100% because I allowed these things to continuously happen,” a moment that quickly struck a chord online as she reminded viewers she’s been transparent about this journey before.

Dwayne Johnson has been busy lately. The soon-to-be Disney Legend award recipient has two films coming out this year and will be making his return for the final Fast & Furious movie. Now, one of the actor’s underrated sci-fi dramas is heading to a new streaming platform and will be available for free.

Throughout Johnson’s decades-long acting career, the wrestler has appeared in many projects. He made his acting debut in an episode of That ’70s Show and first appeared on the big screen in the 2001 feature, The Mummy Returns, where he played The Scorpion King. Since then, he has starred in franchises such as Jumanji and the DCU, as well as appearing in many Disney titles, including Hannah Montana, Race to Witch Mountain, and Wizards of Waverly Place. But if there is one genre Johnson is known for, it’s action and thriller movies, and one of them has found a new streaming home.

San Andreas is a 2015 disaster thriller that grossed over $475 million worldwide. Johnson plays Ray Gaines, a helicopter rescue pilot for the Los Angeles Fire Department, who will do anything to save and protect his family after a series of massive earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault devastate California. Also starring in this film are Carla Gugino (Spy Kids), Alexandra Daddario (Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part One and Two), Ioan Gruffudd (Fantastic Four), and Hugo Johnstone-Burt (NCIS: Sydney). Since its release, San Andreas has received mixed reviews, earning a 48% critics score and a 52% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. 11 years later, Johnson fans have another chance to catch this movie as it’s now available to stream on Tubi.

Other Films To Watch If You Like ‘San Andreas’

Before San Andreas entered theaters, there were discussions about what if the fault line were to shift. The film showcases one disastrous version of what could happen if that day were to come, and those depictions were criticized by reviewers and seismologists who went out of their way to separate fact from fiction.

San Andreas is one of many films that attempted to showcase a heavily discussed natural disaster scenario, and there are other titles worth watching that fit the bill. One notable example is 2012, a film that dramatizes the 2012 phenomenon, where it’s predicted that the world will end on December 21, 2012. Another film worth watching that you might not have heard of is Pandora. This 2016 South Korean disaster film, inspired by the 2011 Fukushima Nuclear Accident, but set in a Korean town, follows power plant worker Kang Jae-hyeok (Kim Nam-gil) as he attempts to save lives after an earthquake triggers a nuclear meltdown.

San Andreas is now streaming on Tubi.

Kylie Jenner is facing mounting legal pressure after a second former household employee filed a lawsuit against her. The new complaint alleges inhumane working conditions, racial discrimination, harassment, and wage violations.

The legal drama comes as Jenner continues to make headlines for her high-profile relationship with Timothée Chalamet. The pair were recently spotted courtside in New York, fueling ongoing engagement rumors, even as sources suggest Jenner may not be rushing toward marriage.

Jenner is facing another lawsuit from a former household employee, adding to mounting legal pressure surrounding her working environment.

According to the Los Angeles Times, Juana Delgado Soto has filed a lawsuit against Jenner and multiple other entities. The complaint alleges racial discrimination, harassment, and unfair labor practices during Soto’s time working for the reality star.

Soto claims she began working for Jenner in 2019 and was initially subjected to denied rest breaks and missed meal periods. However, she alleges the situation escalated in 2023 when Sibrian became her supervisor.

In the filing, Soto accuses Sibrian of repeatedly treating her with disrespect, including mocking her accent and humiliating her in the workplace. She says she reported the behavior to human resources, which led to Sibrian’s temporary removal.

Housekeeper Claims She Tried To Warn Jenner

Soto claims she attempted to bring the alleged mistreatment directly to Jenner, but the situation only escalated. According to the lawsuit, Sibrian allegedly retaliated against her by reducing her wages, increasing her workload, and altering her schedule.

Soto also claims she was denied time to mourn her brother’s death and missed a planned birthday celebration due to work demands.

In April 2025, Soto says she wrote a letter to Jenner describing what she called unbearable treatment and slipped it into a massage room the beauty mogul was scheduled to use. However, instead of relief, she claims she was threatened with termination.

Kylie Jenner Not Named Directly In Claims

Despite the disturbing allegations, the lawsuit does not make direct claims against Jenner personally. Soto alleges the conditions continued to deteriorate, claiming she was given restricted bathroom access, forced to clean Jenner’s doghouse, and even barred from drinking water while on duty.

Unable to endure the situation any longer, she says she resigned via text in August 2025.

“I am sorry, I cannot do this anymore. Every day you guys mistreat me, and I have bitten all my nails off. I cannot sleep at night, and I always have anxiety because of the way you guys treat me,” the lawsuit quotes.

The latest case comes just weeks after another former housekeeper filed a similar complaint against Jenner, alleging she was treated “with hostility and exclusion,” per PEOPLE.

Jenner Steps Out With Chalamet

Amid the legal drama, Jenner has continued to step out with Chalamet. The couple has been drawing attention in recent months, from her support of the actor during awards season to their PDA-filled moments at Coachella.

Most recently, they were spotted courtside in New York on Tuesday as they watched the New York Knicks take on the Atlanta Hawks, with Chalamet cheering on his home team.

Kylie Jenner ‘Not Ready’ For Marriage With Chalamet

Despite their relationship heating up, Jenner is reportedly not in a rush to walk down the aisle with Chalamet. Rumors of a possible engagement have been swirling, but sources claim she is hesitant about taking that step anytime soon.

“Timothée has talked about proposing to Kylie, but she doesn’t want to get married, at least not yet,” an insider told the Daily Mail, adding that she believes relationships can change after marriage.

The report also claims Chalamet has been seeking advice from Jenner’s inner circle, including her mother Kris Jenner and sister Kendall Jenner, on how to win her over. Another source noted that the couple is currently enjoying their relationship while balancing their careers and business ventures.

Still, Jenner’s family is said to be fully on board with the romance, with insiders claiming they would love to see the pair tie the knot sooner rather than later. According to the report, Chalamet has already grown close to Jenner’s children, Stormi and Aire, and is considered “very involved,” with her family reportedly embracing him as one of their own.

Saturday Night Live writer Jimmy Fowlie revealed in December 2025 that his sister Christina Lynn Downer went missing. He shared a heartbreaking update four months after her disappearance, telling social media followers that she is no longer alive.

Keep scrolling for everything to know:

Who Is ‘SNL’ Writer Jimmy Fowlie?

Fowlie joined Saturday Night Live as a writer in 2022 and became a breakout name behind the scenes thanks to the viral “Domingo” sketch — originally titled “Domingo: Bridesmaid Speech” — which he cowrote with Ceara O’Sullivan. Featuring Marcello Hernández, the sketch first aired in October 2024 when Ariana Grande hosted. Fowlie has also written for A Nonsense Christmas With Sabrina Carpenter and the LGBT-themed web series “Go-Go Boy Interrupted.” In September 2025, Vulture named him one of the comedians “you should and will know in 2025.”

Jimmy Fowlie Reveals Christina Downer’s Disappearance

When Fowlie first went public with details about Downer’s disappearance in December 2025, his message spread through Hollywood. The SNL writer’s industry connections led notable names across comedy and reality TV to amplify his message in real time.

“My sister has been missing and we are worried that she isn’t safe,” Fowlie captioned a social media post at the time. “Her married name is Downer but she may go by Christina Fowlie. Please share this so that if anyone has seen her, they can give any information to the police.”

SNL stars Bowen Yang, Sarah Sherman and Chloe Fineman helped boost the search, joined by Ariana Madix, Angie Harmon, Amy Schumer, Casey Wilson and Wendi McLendon-Covey.

The Last Time Jimmy Fowlie Heard From Christina Downer

Fowlie offered intimate details about his sister’s life in another December 2025 revealing the last time they spoke.

“Christina is very attached to her dog Rex. He’s a min pin and if you see her chances are he’d be with her,” he wrote. “Last seen in Koreatown. I heard from her on Nov 26th. She was active on social media up to Dec 15th.”

The LAPD later confirmed Downer was last contacted via text on December 10, 2025. Officials described her as a 38-year-old woman with black hair and brown eyes, standing 5 feet, 1 inch tall and weighing approximately 115 pounds. “The family wants the public to be aware that Christina Downer has no known medical conditions and has not gone missing before,” police said.

Jimmy Fowlie’s Update on Christina Downer

The SNL writer broke the news on April, 29, 2026, that the search for Downer had been adjusted to a homicide investigation.

“The LAPD has informed our family that Christina is no longer alive, and the case has officially transitioned from a missing person to a homicide investigation,” Fowlie wrote on social media. “Our prayers for her to be found safely have transformed into prayers for the truth to be revealed and for those responsible to be held accountable.”

One day later, the LAPD released a statement with new, additional information.

“Robbery-Homicide Division continues to investigate the disappearance of Christina Downer,” LAPD said in a statement to Us Weekly on April 30, 2026. “Although the circumstances of her disappearance are suspicious, Ms. Downer has not been located, and her case has not been reclassified as a homicide. RHD will diligently investigate this case until a resolution can be reached.”

Jimmy Fowlie Shares Details About Christina Downer’s Phone

In his April 2026 update, Fowlie dropped a bombshell allegation about the weeks before Downer vanished.

“We have reason to believe that in the weeks before she went missing, her phone and social media were compromised,” he wrote. “The individual(s) in possession of her phone used it to hide the fact she was gone, to ask for money and to create a false narrative that she was going ‘off the grid.’”

He added, “I am sharing this because I believe that whoever is responsible is hoping to erase her in every way possible. I want to amplify her story in the only way I know how.”

Some thrillers are easy to follow, but others feel far more immersive and keep you guessing. These films plant small details without the audience noticing or take hard turns towards the end, making them outright unpredictable. Whether it’s the fractured timeline of Memento or the ambiguity of the indie Sound of My Voice, these thrillers thrive on crafting their story and misdirection.

Here, we take a look at some of the thrillers that keep you guessing from start to finish. Instead of guiding the audience toward a clear resolution, they embrace uncertainty, unreliable narrators, and narrative sleight of hand. The result is a viewing experience that stays with you, inviting rewatch after rewatch, not just to catch what you missed, but to see how expertly you were led astray in the first place.

‘The Usual Suspects’ (1995)

Image via MGM

The Usual Suspects centers on Roger “Verbal” Kint (Kevin Spacey), a small-time con artist and the sole survivor of a deadly ship explosion, who recounts the events leading up to the incident during a police interrogation. Through his story, it is revealed that a group of criminals came together to collaborate on dangerous jobs for a mysterious, ruthless crime lord named Keyser Soze.

Written by Christopher McQuarrie, The Usual Suspects is often cited as one of the best thrillers of all time because of how smartly it constructs the narrative. With Verbal’s story framing, the film sets the audience up because this character is an unreliable narrator, evidenced by inconsistencies and visual cues suggesting something is off. By the time the truth is revealed, it surprises the audience and forces the audience to completely reevaluate everything that came before. It is no twist ending that the film won Best Original Screenplay at the Oscars.

‘The Invitation’ (2015)

Image via Drafthouse Films

The Invitation centers on Will (Logan Marshall-Green), a man who attends a dinner party hosted by his ex-wife, Eden (Tammy Blanchard) and her new partner, David (Michiel Huisman), at the house they once shared. As the evening unfolds, the gathering feels increasingly off, and Will becomes convinced that something is wrong, but his concerns are dismissed as paranoia, leaving him to question whether there’s something or if it’s just his grief.

Karyn Kusama‘s The Invitation utilizes slow-burning tension and ambiguity to become an effective thriller, undoubtedly one of the most underrated in recent memory. It carefully balances two competing interpretations: either Will is right, and something sinister is unfolding, or he’s projecting his trauma onto an otherwise harmless situation. Kusama stretches this uncertainty to its limit, using subtle cues and social discomfort to keep viewers guessing. When the truth finally emerges, it expands the scope of the threat in a chilling way and becomes an unforgettable experience.

‘Coherence’ (2013)

Image via Oscilloscope Laboratories

Coherence follows a group of friends attending a house dinner party. When a comet passes overhead while they’re gathering, minor oddities begin to appear, and reality begins to decay. Their familiar surroundings become confusing and eerie, and they even encounter alternate versions of themselves. As the film progresses and they try to find the answers, the situation becomes more and more unstable.

Made with an ultra-low budget, Coherence maximizes its production through its minimalist approach. Shot in a naturalistic way with improvised dialogue and tight setting, Coherence immerses the audience in the same confusion as its characters. Each revelation is simultaneously conveyed to the characters and the audience, keeping viewers guessing not just about what’s happening, but which version of events they’re even witnessing. It’s like solving a puzzle, but the last pieces keep missing before we’re able to finish it, in the best way possible.

‘Shutter Island’ (2010)

Image via Paramount Pictures

Set in 1954, Shutter Island follows U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) as he travels to Ashecliffe Hospital, a remote psychiatric facility on an isolated island, to investigate the disappearance of a patient. Alongside his partner Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo), Teddy interviews staff and patients, but quickly encounters challenges in the hospital. As a violent storm traps them on the island, Teddy’s investigation becomes increasingly personal, haunted by visions of his past.

Martin Scorsese carefully blurs the line between reality and delusion in this thriller. By aligning the audience entirely with Teddy’s unstable point of view, the film becomes thoroughly engrossing and unpredictable. Shutter Island plants clues throughout but frames them in a way that allows multiple interpretations until the final act reveals the most important information. Although usually diminished to its twist, the buildup towards it that differentiates Shutter Island from other thrillers. It fills the atmosphere with so much uncertainty that even after the reveal, some audiences may still be questioning whether it’s real or not.

‘The Prestige’ (2006)

The Prestige follows rival magicians Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale), whose professional competition escalates into a fatal game. In an attempt to perfect an impossible trick, The Transported Man, the two become locked in a cycle of dangerous one-upmanship as they spy and sabotage each other.

Replicating the structure of a magic trick (The Pledge, The Turn and The Prestige), Christopher Nolan‘s The Prestige is a trick in itself. It hides its biggest secrets in plain sight while also distracting the audience with spectacle and misdirection. What makes it such an effective guessing game is that the clues are all there, yet the narrative framing encourages you to overlook them. The Prestige moves confidently, knowing that it always stays one step ahead of the audience. In more ways than one, this film is a foundational piece in Nolan’s filmography, with his narrative tricks and filmmaking trademarks all intact here.

‘Sound of My Voice’ (2011)

Sound of My Voice follows two documentary filmmakers, Peter (Christopher Denham) and Lorna (Nicole Vicius), who infiltrate a secretive cult led by a woman named Maggie (Brit Marling), who claims to be from the future. As they gain her trust and begin documenting her teachings, they encounter a group of devoted followers who believe deeply in her story. Maggie provides specific, seemingly verifiable predictions and details about the future that make the filmmakers question what they believe.

Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij have consistently created thought-provoking indie movies before their breakout mainstream success with The OA. Sound of My Voice is instrumental to the Netflix cult series, as it has a lot of its DNA, notably in the setting and atmosphere. The film sustains ambiguity around Maggie’s legitimacy and never directly confirms or debunks her position, and the audience, like the two documentarians, is consistently questioning her. The film is infamous for its abrupt ending, which can be frustrating, but it also gives space for the audience to rethink what they have seen and make their own conclusion.

‘Oldboy’ (2003)

Oldboy follows Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik), who is inexplicably imprisoned in a private cell for 15 years without explanation. Suddenly released, he is given money, clothes, a phone, and a task to discover the reason for his imprisonment within five days or face consequences. As Dae-su retraces his past, he forms a connection with a young woman named Mi-do (Kang Hye-jung) and begins to uncover a long-buried secret.

Similar to other films on this list, Oldboy is effective and memorable for putting the audience in Dae-su’s perspective. It is already a relentless thriller thanks to its layered structure and innovative filmmaking. Park Chan-wook constantly feeds the audience partial answers that feel satisfying in the moment but ultimately lead to even darker questions. The film’s mix of genres makes it richer, ranging from a revenge story to a psychological thriller to a tragedy. The final reveal is shocking for Dae-su and the audience, recontextualizing everything that came before and forcing the audience to let everything sink in.

‘Gone Girl’ (2014)

Gone Girl sees devoted wife Amy Dunne (Rosamund Pike) disappear on her fifth wedding anniversary. Suspicion quickly falls on her husband Nick (Ben Affleck), whose awkward public image and inconsistent statements make him an easy target. The police begin to investigate the case, with the crime scene and Amy’s diary entries as the main clues that point to a deteriorating marriage, which corners Nick even more.

Gone Girl thrives on its ability to constantly reset the audience’s assumptions through unreliable narrators in both Amy and Nick. Gillian Flynn‘s book leans to the trope even more, but David Fincher and Flynn herself adapted it perfectly for the film. So every time you think you understand the dynamics of the relationship, the story pivots and forces you to reconsider everything. It’s less about a single twist and more about continuous unpredictability, especially if you haven’t read the source material. Gone Girl also plays with media narratives and public perception, adding another layer of uncertainty about what’s real and what’s being performed.

‘Memento’ (2000)

Memento follows Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce), who suffers from short-term memory loss after a traumatic attack that also resulted in his wife’s death. Unable to form new memories, Leonard relies on handwritten notes, Polaroid photos, and tattoos on his body to track clues in his quest to find the man he believes responsible. To add to the unpredictability, the narrative moves in reverse chronological order.

Christopher Nolan’s obsession with time stems from this film. Its disorienting structure forces the audience to tap into Leonard’s fractured mindset. Viewers are constantly piecing together events without full context, only to have each new scene reshape their understanding of the last. Nolan turns memory itself into the central mystery, raising questions about truth, self-deception, and the stories we tell ourselves to cope. The final reveal seems secondary after trying to guess what it all meant throughout the film. Instead, Memento challenges whether Leonard, and by extension the audience, ever truly wanted to know the truth at all.

‘The Game’ (1997)

In The Game, wealthy banker Nicholas Van Orton (Michael Douglas) receives a mysterious birthday gift from his brother (Sean Penn) to participate in an elaborate, personalized experience run by a company called Consumer Recreation Services. Initially skeptical, Nicholas soon finds his life spiraling out of control as the game begins to blur with reality. With his money gone and his home compromised, Nicholas tries to find the truth behind the organization and stop the game.

The film excels as a thriller because it systematically dismantles both Nicholas’s sense of control and the audience’s grip on reality. In his third feature film, David Fincher demonstrates mastery in filmmaking and narrative deception, constructing a narrative where every development could either be part of the game or a genuine threat; there’s no clear way to distinguish between the two. This constant ambiguity keeps viewers in a state of tension. The Game becomes more and more intense as it develops, so much that the third act reveal feels like an extended exhale after holding our breath throughout the movie. In Fincher’s decorated filmography, this film, unfortunately, is the one that gets overlooked the most.

Days of Our Lives is gearing up for the reading of Stefano DiMera‘s (Joseph Mascolo) will and there are some changes in the wind. First off, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) was added to the list of beneficiaries and also Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson) has been revealed as the new executor thanks to a codicil that EJ DiMera (Dan Feuerriegel) just learned about.

So, there’s also some talk about Marlena and Stefano’s twisted past and some hints that have us wondering if the Phoenix and his Queen of the Night had a child together that we never knew about. And we’re going to talk about a big twist that may be coming.

So, it could be that the writers did a huge retcon of known history and they may reveal a twist in somebody’s maternity. Not paternity. But maternity as in a different mom. So, before we dive into a possible Marlena and Stefano baby twist.

Major Days of Our Lives Storyline Twists Coming

So, already I think that the reading of Stefano’s will is going to yield major storyline twists for many in the DiMera family and people adjacent to them as well. And one of those twists could tie into his ongoing bizarre and decades-lasting obsession with Marlena.

So this past week when Abe Carver (James Reynolds) was talking to Theo, he mentioned that aside from Marlena, he thinks that Lexie Carver‘s (Nikki Crawford) mom, Celeste Perrault (Beverly Todd), was the only woman that Stefano truly loved. And Abe also sort of implied that Stefano might have loved Celeste more than Marlena. Primarily because Stefano had a child with Celeste. But is there more to it? And we’re about to get a huge retcon that could shock the fans and the DiMera family.

Marlena in for a Huge Shock on DOOL?

Given that Stefano had pet mad scientist Dr. Wilhelm Rolf (Richard Wharton) at his beck and call, I mean honestly anything is possible when it comes to secret kids. So, is Stefano going to twist and manipulate Marlena’s life from beyond the grave? We should see the will being read in the week ahead, the week of May 4th through the 8th.

So, EJ already spent time with Marlena this week talking to her about hypnotherapy. Because he wants to find out more about his time in the Italian hospital with Cat Green (AnnaLynne McCord). And EJ again was encouraging Marlena to attend the will reading. But she wasn’t quite sure.

Could Chad Be Marlena’s Son on Days?

So, if there is a twist like this coming, I’m wondering if EJ’s in the dark about it or if he knows. So, even though Stefano, who was Marlena’s tormentor, is confirmed to be dead and buried, he is living rent-free in her head. And EJ told Marlena that showing up for Stefano’s will reading could give her closure.

And we know, of course, that Marlena is curious about what’s going on. But she also mentioned this isn’t necessarily something new. She’s been named as a beneficiary in some of Stefano’s past wills. I mean, the Phoenix rose from the death several times, like 13 or 14 times. It was insane.

Days of Our Lives: Grown Baby Bombshell Coming?

So, I do think secrets are going to come out that have never been revealed. And one possibility based on the recent conversations with Abe and Theo about Stefano’s fixation on Marlena and them not having a child is we find out something that she doesn’t know. Did Stefano get Marlena pregnant and she had his child but does not remember?

Are we getting a grown baby bombshell as part of the will reading? And if so, we’re wondering if they’re going to do a retcon. And we’re going to find out Chad DiMera (Connor Floyd) is the biological son of Marlena and Stefano.

Days of Our Lives writers are pretty skilled at using foreshadowing and little Easter eggs and hints. And when Theo and Abe were talking about Marlena and Celeste and Stefano having a child with Celeste. But not with Marlena, the very next scene it cut to was Chad talking to Marlena. So that could have been an Easter egg.

How This Could Be Possible on Days

When Chad first came on to Salem, the Salem scene, you may remember, I think he was 16. He was a teenager, introduced as the son of an affluent couple, Madeline Peterson Woods (Jessica Tuck) and Charles Woods (David Leisure). But it came out after Madeline died that she was a former call girl that Stefano had slept with and that he was Chad’s true bio dad, not her husband.

So, given that Chad came on the scene as a troubled teenager and wasn’t born on screen, the Days of Our Lives writers have a good amount of wiggle room if they want to rewrite the story of his origins. And if Marlena is indeed Chad’s biological mom, the big question is why wouldn’t Marlena know?

So, how could it be possible that Stefano got her pregnant, Marlena gave birth to a son, and knows nothing about it? I got two words for you. Dr. Rolf. Now, we know that Stefano kidnapped Marlena on many occasions, including during the Queen of the Night era.

Days of Our Lives: Stefano Impregnated Marlena Under Mind Control?

So, Stefano had Marlena under mind control, and he was manipulating her. A lot of it done in the dead of the night when she was dreaming or when she thought she was dreaming. So, Stefano may have had consensual sex or honestly it would have been non-consensual sex with Marlena when she was drugged, brainwashed, gaslit, and Stefano could have gotten her pregnant.

And because of the brainwashing and trauma and blackouts, Marlena didn’t know or she forgot. You know, Rolf could have delivered the baby early, put Marlena in a coma and delivered the child and Stefano gave the baby to Madeline to raise. So, Rolf may have altered records or brainwashed Marlena into thinking she was never pregnant or had a stillbirth, something like that.

Chad’s mother may have been paid or coerced to pretend that Stefano’s secret love child with Marlena was her child with her husband. Because the truth that Stefano was Chad’s dad didn’t come out until she died. So, they could also retcon it to Stefano saying that Madeline could never tell anyone the truth about Chad’s real parents.

Dr. Rolf’s Medical Wizardry on DOOL

Or from another angle, Stefano could have had Rolf harvest Marlena’s eggs during one of the kidnappings. And like Rolf did with Kate Robert’s (Lauren Koslow) and Roman Brady’s (Josh Taylor) DNA to create twins Rex Brady (Kyle Lowder) and Cassie Brady (Alexis Thorpe), you know, Rolf could have made a Stefano and Marlena embryo and implanted it into Madeline, and she was actually Chad’s surrogate mother rather than his biological mother. But then raised him as her own. Think about that.

Rolf stole Tate Black (Leo Howard) when he was just a little embryo from Theresa Donovan’s womb and planted him in Kristen DiMera‘s (Stacy Haiduk) womb. Dr. Rolf’s medical wizardry also helped Kristen get pregnant with Rachel way past her fertility expiration date. And I think it was 2020, so like six years ago, Rolf tried to implant a Stefano clone embryo in Kayla Brady (Mary Beth Evans) when she was also past her fertility expiration date.

Days of Our Lives: Marlena Gets Huge Shock

So, I do expect some really big and bizarre reveals at this will reading. And I have to say that this is a retcon I’d probably be okay with. I think it might turn out to be a good thing. You know, Marlena’s grieving John Black (Drake Hogestyn).

She could use some good news in her life. I mean, that would be a good news, bad news situation. Like, oh, by the way, you know, Stefano had a baby and you didn’t know. But good news, it’s a nice guy. It’s Chad, you know, and he’s an orphan, so he could use a loving mother figure in his life.

I mean, honestly, if they went this route, it might be one of the kindest things Stefano’s done for Marlena, revealing the truth at long last. So, the bequest that she gets from Stefano’s will may not be a trinket or some jewelry or some cash. But the reveal of a secret son she never knew that they had and that she already loves.
