Nicole Kidman and Beyoncé shrugged at a Met Gala rule with their exquisite dates.

The actress and singer who co-chaired the star-studded fashion event along with other A-list industry stars left many talking, and not only because of their stunning looks. The former Destiny’s Child vocalist still made heads turn, marking her first appearance at the event in a decade.

Nicole Kidman and Beyoncé are not the only stars whose names remain on the lips of many after walking the Met Gala red carpet on Monday night. While the co-chairs’ appearances ignited conversation, the absence of many highly anticipated entertainers raised speculation.

Kidman made her debut at the Met Gala in 2003, and over two decades later, she walks hand in hand with his daughter, Sunday Rose. Sunday graced the 2026 Fashion is Art themed event for the first time, dressed in a strapless pink and lilac floral gown with a billowing bodice as she flashed smiles for the cameras. 

The 17-year-old sealed the look with matching statement earrings and a purse while her brown straight locks were neatly parted to the side, thanks to celebrity hairstylist Adir Abergel. The “Babygirl” star walked right by her daughter’s side, donning a deep red sequined Chanel gown that was part of Chanel’s 2027 Cruise collection.

PEOPLE shared that Kidman’s look featured a drop waist accessorized with a feather peplum and small train. She wore her blonde straight hair in a banged-down look that ran past her shoulders.

Why Sunday Rose’s Appearance Has Many Talking

Sunday is one year shy of the Met Gala’s age limit, which states that invitees must be 18 years or older to attend the event. This rule was brought to light in May 2018 when “Dance Moms” alum Maddie Zieler told news outlets that she could not attend the event because she was not old enough at the time.

The theme for the event that year was “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination,”  and widespread speculation was that the age restriction was in place due to the theme. However, the Met Gala organizers clarified that the age limit had nothing to do with the theme. They stressed that it was an executive decision that “it’s not an appropriate event for people under 18.”

Even though Sunday’s first-time appearance at the event seemingly bent the rules, she is no stranger to cameras, fashion, and strutting in glamorous outfits. The young model made her catwalk debut as part of Miu Miu’s summer/spring 2025 show in Paris in October 2024 and has since been a fixture at Fashion Week.

The Met Gala Age Limit’s Bar Dropped With Beyoncé’s Date

While Kidman’s daughter is just a year below the age limit, Beyoncé walked onto the red carpet with her 14-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. The “If I Were A Boy” singer’s appearance at the event after ten years turned a family affair as she not only walked the Met Gala carpet with her daughter but also with her husband, Jay-Z.

The young singer caught eyes effortlessly as she stepped out in a white gown with a dramatic bubble skirt, a matching jacket, and metallic heels. The iconic look that carried so much elegance beyond Blue Ivy’s years was completed with a pair of striking sunglasses, which she refused to take off for pictures on the carpet, as reported by The Blast.

Blue Ivy became one of the youngest attendees at the Met, totally defying the age limit by four years, leaving many talking. Her presence sparked debate online as many questioned why the organizers did not uphold the rules. “But so Blue Ivy is a minor too (14 years old isn’t 18), so she had no business being on the red carpet if we stick to the rules,” one netizen called out on X. 

Another viral video showed that the 14-year-old did not succumb to signals from paparazzi as she posed for pictures with her parents. Red-carpet etiquette typically involves removing sunglasses for photos, especially during close-up shots, but Blue Ivy stood her ground even after Jay-Z asked her to take them off.

Inside Other Eye-Catching Debut Appearances

Besides Sunday and Blue Ivy, other celebrities walked the Met Gala carpet for the first time clad in striking outfits tailored to the event’s theme. Jaafar Jackson, who plays his late uncle in the biopic “Michael,” stepped onto the carpet looking dapper in a black velvet Ralph Lauren suit and bow tie with intricate gold detailing.

His look was reminiscent of one of the late entertainer Michael Jackson’s looks. The Blast reported that Jaafar admitted that although his outfit was a “bit last-minute,” he was able to collaborate with the brand to achieve the stylish look, which not only matched the theme but also “felt not just visually striking, but intentional.”

“Saturday Night Live” breakout star Marcello Hernandez made his Met Gala debut alongside his girlfriend, Ana Amelia Baylor Cabral. The comedian wore a black double-breasted Thom Browne suit with a bow tie, which he accessorized with a brooch from his mother.

Another jaw-dropping reed carpet debut look was served from South Korean-American singer Kim Eun-jae, professionally known as Ejae, known for her Oscar-winning song “Golden”. Ejae came dressed in a sparkling silver gown, which she revealed to news outlets was inspired by her Korean culture. Among other accessories, she added binyeos, traditional Korean ornamental hairpins, to her hair.

Some Celebrities Walked The Met Gala Carpet Solo

While fashion is the order of the day at the star-studded event, romance still finds its way to the table of discussion as many industry stars attended the event without their famous partners, sparking online conversations. Among the many A-list stars absent, Harry Styles‘ absence could not go unnoticed as he was not seen by his beau’s side days after news of their engagement made headlines.

While fans had expected a major debut from the singer and his fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, they were met with disappointment as the actress stepped out solo. Another detail that raised whispers was that Kravitz’s left ring finger was missing a piece of jewelry, her diamond ring, which she flashed for cameras days ago during outings.

The Blast also reports that Timothée Chalamet skipped the event, leaving girlfriend Kylie Jenner to walk solo for the second year in a row. Chalamet reportedly chose to watch a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden rather than attend the fashion event with his partner. Katy Perry also walked the red carpet alone, and so did Gigi Hadid.

Did Nicole Kidman & Beyoncé start a trend that other stars will follow at the next Met Gala?

Not your average tee! Zoë Kravitz, Gracie Abrams, Laufey, Audrey Hobert, and a growing list of It-girls are stocking their wardrobes with Cleo’s signature tops, and once you see them, the appeal is instant.

With three-quarter length sleeves, a reversible neckline (low in the front or the back), plus two delicate buttons on the left side, the tee strikes a balance between effortless for day and elevated for night.

So, what’s the secret behind the viral staple? According to founder Cleo Camp, it all starts with that wear-anywhere appeal.

“I design an everyday elegance line for the girl who I imagine is the busiest girl in the world. She is busy building her own dream. … Cleo clothes and accessories fit 9-5 and 5-9 because my customer can do it all, without stopping at home to change,” she tells ET.

The celebrity co-signs prove the point.

“Audrey shows up on stage in front of hundreds of people in my Cleo Tees in the same way she would meet a friend or go out to dinner,” Camp notes.

With six colors available, along with two dress options, the brand makes it easy to build a rotation you can rely on all week, something that feels especially personal to Camp.

“My grandmother, Christie, is my big inspiration. She had a signature look. She would re-wear the same silhouettes in different colors and materials over and over again, creating a stylish uniform that I knew as only hers,” she shares.

That familial influence goes beyond philosophy; it shaped the top’s form itself.

“My mom and grandma always wore quarter sleeves which I found really flattering and I was really focused on silhouette when I designed my tee. I wanted to frame the shape of the female body. … I used that to create my version of the perfect tee, and luckily others thought so too.”

Outside of her chic relatives, Camp’s aesthetic is rooted in a love of vintage fashion and pop culture. She often looks to designers like Agnès B., Vivienne Westwood, Diane von Furstenberg, Donna Karan, Norma Kamali, and Betsey Johnson, as well as iconic television shows for inspiration. 

“Fashion is just what I consume and look for naturally. … In the studio, I replay episodes of Entourage and Sex and the City. I obsess over the details of every outfit from an era or style in fashion and TV that I wish still existed and find vintage designer pieces online late at night from eras before I was born.”

To take your own look up a notch, Camp recommends pairing her tees with the brand’s handcrafted leather and suede bags, which are equal parts practical and conversation starting.

“I’ve heard stories of women meeting on the street in a foreign city because they both had the same bag or a guy using my bag as an excuse to talk to a girl,” the California native spills.

But the designer’s ultimate outfit formula brings it back to individual style.

“Wear an accent or floral pin, a pair of standout shoes, heels or not, a perfectly fitting pair of Levi’s, and something meaningful that’s been passed down to you.”

After years of trying to get this project out of dry dock, Paramount finally confirmed that we’ll be getting a new Star Trek movie. The fandom is generally divided on this announcement. Some are happy that we’ll finally get Trek on the big screen again, and the fact that it will be written by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley (the duo who wrote the excellent Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves) is just icing on the cake. Others are quite unhappy that we are bidding a definitive goodbye to Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and the rest of the Kelvinverse cast in favor of a new continuity. 

That new continuity is actually what worries me the most about this upcoming film. It’s weird enough that Star Trek is getting its third, brand-new timeline, which will inevitably make things weird for casual audiences. But so far, Paramount hasn’t commented on how this new movie will affect plans for future Trek TV shows. As a lifelong fan of the franchise, I’ve got some friendly advice for Paramount: unless the TV shows retain the continuity that began with Star Trek: The Original Series, this franchise is doomed.

Set Your Phaser To “Reboot”

The franchise got its first real reboot with JJ Abrams’ Star Trek in 2009. At the time, Paramount worried that Star Trek’s decades of tangled lore would be too much for casual moviegoers to keep up with. The solution was a time travel plot that ended up rebooting the entire universe, and this resulted in something of a creative compromise. The Trek films would take place in the new timeline known as the Kelvinverse. Meanwhile, future shows (including Discovery, Strange New Worlds, and Picard) would take place in the same timeline as shows like The Original Series, The Next Generation, and Voyager.

Now, ironically, Paramount finds itself in the exact same position. Those Kelvinverse movies did a good job of reviving the franchise, but it’s been the better part of two decades since the first one came out. Nervous that audiences might have trouble keeping up with the lore of this not-so-new continuity, the powers that be have decided to reboot the franchise yet again. While there is no firm release date or story details, we do know that the upcoming movie will be set in a continuity that is different from both the TV shows and the Kelvinverse films.

Making Audiences Sick

What is even less clear is what the future of Star Trek television looks like. By the numbers, NuTrek has been a failure: every single show except for Picard (which was planned as a three-season show) ended up getting prematurely canceled. Furthermore, Starfleet Academy’s streaming numbers were so underwhelming (one unconfirmed report claimed it only averaged 40,000 views per episode) that the show ended up getting canceled after one season. This, combined with Paramount’s upcoming acquisition of Warner Bros., may tempt executives to ditch everything that came before and set future shows in the same continuity as the upcoming movie.

Despite NuTrek’s many failings, this would be a huge mistake. If there’s one thing Star Trek fans are, well, fanatic about, it’s the franchise’s continuity. Old timers find it endlessly rewarding to see how newer episodes callback to other ones. For example, even Starfleet Academy’s biggest haters mostly enjoyed the show’s tribute to Deep Space Nine’s Captain Sisko. Similarly, Discovery’s harshest critics generally enjoyed how the entire final season was a follow-up to a mostly forgotten Star Trek: The Next Generation episode. Clearly, if any new iteration of Star Trek is to retain its legion of older fans, it simply must continue to build on the continuity begun back in 1966 with Star Trek: The Original Series. Done right, this will give Paramount the best of both worlds: new timeline movies to hook newer fans and old timeline shows to keep the older fans.

Done wrong, however, and the studio may very well doom this franchise. What if audiences reject the latest movie, only after Paramount has planned multiple TV series around it? Keeping timelines different for the films and the shows allows execs to hedge their bets rather than going all-in on a single continuity. Plus, it’s an olive branch to the legacy fans who form the core of the fandom. Keep those fans happy, and you keep the franchise alive. Drive those fans away, though, and it will die even quicker than Starfleet Academy. 

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Jane Austen novel in possession of a good legacy must be in want of an adaptation. Such has been the case for Austen’s most acclaimed and popular work, Pride and Prejudice, which has received countless adaptations, from a classic Hollywood black-and-white drama to a BBC miniseries to a millennial cottagecore rom-com to even a zombie horror comedy. Most of these efforts range between “great” and “solid,” but few actually have something meaningful to say about Austen’s seminal novel.

Luckily, The Other Bennet Sister isn’t “most” adaptations; in fact, it’s among the rare ones that approach its source material with reverence, but its much-welcome sense of independence allows it to feel refreshing and, far more importantly, timely. The show premieres with its first three episodes May 6 on the criminally underappreciated streaming service BritBox, and it’s a must-watch, not only for hardcore Janeites or those who crave Regency romance as if it were oxygen, but for anyone who appreciates a beautifully crafted and exceptionally executed story.

What Is ‘The Other Bennet Sister’ About?

As the title implies, The Other Bennet Sister centers on Mary (Ella Bruccoleri), the most overlooked of the five Bennet sisters from Pride and Prejudice. Introverted and often disregarded by her family, Mary attempts to take control of her own story, much to the annoyance of her mother, Mrs. Bennet (Ruth Jones), and the loving indifference of her father, Mr. Bennet (Richard E. Grant). Through her distinct and invigorating perspective, we see the well-known events of Pride and Prejudice before the series’ story sends her on a journey of self-discovery to London, where she experiences the kindness of her relatives, Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner (Richard Coyle and Indira Varma), and might even encounter love for the first time.

Based on the eponymous novel by Janice Hadlow, The Other Bennet Sister also stars Dónal Finn as Tom Hayward, a close friend of the Gardiners who becomes crucial to Mary’s journey, and Laurie Davidson as Mr. Ryder, a free-spirited bachelor who catches Mary’s eye. Most of the main players in Pride and Prejudice also appear, including Mary’s four sisters, Jane (Maddie Close), Lizzie (Poppy Gilbert), Lydia (Grace Hogg-Robinson), and Kitty (Molly Wright). Mr. Collins (Ryan Sampson) and Charlotte Lucas (Anna Fenton-Garvey) play prominent roles, as does Caroline Bingley (Tanya Reynolds), Charles Bingley’s haughty sister and a minor antagonist in Pride and Prejudice, who becomes Mary’s main rival here.

‘The Other Bennet Sister’s Cast Makes the Series Soar

From the get-go, it’s clear that the main strength of The Other Bennet Sister is its outstanding cast. At the center of it all is an incandescent Bruccoleri as Mary, a remarkable period heroine and a true breath of fresh air. In many ways, Mary is less a reinvention of the classic Austen heroine and more of a logical progression of the archetype. She is shy, clumsy, and more than a little awkward, the type of character that many would consider “autistic-coded,” yet she’s also bold and, in her way, adventurous. While Mary is afraid to open herself up to new possibilities, she does so nonetheless — not because others compel her to, but because she wants to.

The Other Bennet Sister is, at its core, a wallflower story, but Mary is free of the tropes that permeate that subgenre. There’s no makeover here, no magical transformation that brings her out of her comfort zone and into the spotlight; Mary embraces herself, quirks and all. More importantly, she isn’t married to any notion of either life-altering romance or hopeless spinsterhood, while actively pursuing love; she tries, is disappointed, tries again, and dares to believe she can indeed find a match. It’s so invigorating to see a character like Mary, so honest and relatable, in a romantic period drama, not as the best friend or the comic relief, but as the object of attention and desire.

If Mary is the logical next step for an Austen heroine, then Dónal Finn’s Mr. Hayward is an Austen leading man to a tee. He has all the bumbling charm of Edward Ferrars, the witty intellectualism of Henry Tilney, and the silent longing of Frederick Wentworth. If you like soft, enchanting leading men who are just the right amount of pathetic, you’ll love this guy. Gallant, shy, and just as awkward as Mary, Tom Hayward might just be the best period romance leading man we’ve had since Matthew Macfadyen‘s Mr. Darcy, complete with his own version of the hand flex (who knew forearms could be so appealing?). After being a highlight in the latter two seasons of the cruelly canceled The Wheel of Time and outright stealing this year’s Young Sherlock, it’s great to see Finn receive some much-deserved recognition.

The rest of the cast is uniformly great, too. Coyle and Varma are simply exceptional as the Gardiners, Mary’s de facto fairy godmothers. Davidson’s free-spirited Mr. Ryder is a wonderful sparring partner to Mary, and the familiar but underrated Tanya Reynolds is a riot as the loathsome Caroline Bingley. Perhaps most surprising is how the show reframes the classic characters of Mr. Collins and Charlotte Lucas, two of Pride and Prejudice‘s biggest punching bags. Particularly inspired is the series’ version of Mr. Collins, often depicted as absurd at best and outright pitiful at worst. Here, he’s just a misunderstood man trying to find love and understanding, and his unexpected connection with Mary is among the show’s many highlights.

‘The Other Bennet Sister’ Takes a Bold Creative Swing With the Bennets

If there’s an element that is bound to be divisive, it’s The Other Bennet Sister‘s depiction of the titular family. In Pride and Prejudice, the Bennets are somewhat embarrassing but largely respectable and loving to each other. Here, those dynamics are altered. On the page, Mary is indeed the odd one out; Jane and Lizzie are best friends, and so are Kitty and Lydia, meaning Mary is often ignored by everyone in the household. The Other Bennet Sister takes that to the next level, where many members of the Bennet family are actively unkind toward Mary.

This approach isn’t inherently good or bad; it’s just what fits best for this story, yet one can’t help but suspect that Austen purists will feel betrayed. The other four Bennet sisters are mostly true to their roles in Austen’s story, except for Lydia, who assumes a more antagonistic role. The biggest change comes with the show’s depiction of Mrs. Bennet. In Pride and Prejudice, the Bennet matriarch is loud, abrasive, frivolous, and melodramatic but mostly harmless and well-meaning towards her daughters. In The Other Bennet Sister, she’s an outright villain and actively mistreats Mary to the point of bordering on actual cruelty. In short, she’s less Mrs. Bennet and more Lady Tremaine, a change that’s bound to ruffle some feathers.

Overall, though, The Other Bennet Sister is nothing short of a triumph. Its aesthetic is classic Regency drama, but with a welcome splash of color that feels lively without entering into anachronistic territory. Narratively, it’s a beautiful and winning story with just enough edge to feel modern while still offering everything a romance fan could want. Thematically, it’s the type of story that only takes a few rewatches to become a proper feel-good classic, and there’s also genuine heat, filmed through a distinctive female-gaze approach that makes it all the more effective. The Other Bennet Sister is the show you’ve been waiting for but didn’t know you needed, the perfect offering for these dark times, and a prime example of how timeless and irresistible the period romance subgenre can be when it’s actually done right.

Kylie Jenner continues to prove that beauty is pain, and sometimes ruined facial features!

The socialite sparked mixed reactions on social media platforms after her bold choice for this year’s Met Gala.

She took the dress code “Fashion is Art” quite seriously, going all out with her outfit and makeup. However, Kylie Jenner was in for a shock after the event.

The “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” alum updated fans on her Instagram Story after the prestigious fashion event, revealing she had paid a price for her bold fashion statement. The video captured Kylie unable to stop laughing at herself.

She showcased her eyebrows, which appeared to have been damaged after getting bleached to match her skin for the event. In the clip, Kylie had one eyebrow that had been successfully bleached back to black, but it appeared thinner than it used to be.

“My brows are ruined. What is this? What the f-ck is this?” Kylie asked in between giggles. “This looks horrible,” she declared while someone in the background could be heard laughing and blaming Kylie’s celebrity hairstylist, Iggy Rosales, for leaving her with “no hair.”

The Socialite Opted For A Nude Illusion Ensemble 

For the annual Met Gala, Kylie used her body as a canvas to express her artistic side, as seen in pictures shared on her Instagram page. She stepped out in a sexy yet bold ensemble that gave off the illusion of a dress being taken off, with a voluminous, embellished satin skirt hanging from her waist.

Kylie was fully committed to the half-dressed look, rocking a nude corset with faux nipples and a belly button indentation. She also bleached her brows to match her skin, giving off the illusion that she had shaved off her eyebrows, while her hair fell down one shoulder in grateful waves.

The custom Schiaparelli Haute Couture ensemble impressed some fans, who believed she had embodied the “Fashion is Art” dress code perfectly. On the other hand, some fans argued that Kylie’s nude illusion had gone too far and was not Met Gala worthy.

Fans Were Divided Over The TV Personality’s Bold Ensemble

Fans shared their thoughts about Kylie’s outfit on X, with one supporter raving about her perfect ensemble. “Honestly, this look just hits. The fit, the fabric, the way the train moves — everything feels effortless,” they wrote. Another agreed, declaring:

“Definitely my favorite outfit. I love the way the top blends in with her skin.”

A third applauded Kylie, comparing her outfit to a Greek statue. On the other hand, critics were not impressed and slammed the reality TV star’s fashion statement as a flop. “What a stupid outfit! She’s so thirsty!” someone claimed. An X user echoed similar sentiments, wondering why Kylie had bleached her eyebrows.

More About The Kylie Cosmetics Founder’s Bold Met Gala Look

Kylie’s celebrity hairstylist, Iggy Rosales, opened up about her Met Gala outfit in an interview with Vogue. He explained that the goal of the custom Schiaparelli outfit was to give the illusion of a dress slipping away and make Kylie look like “a living sculpture.”

To achieve the illusion, Rosales experimented with different eyebrow looks before settling on bleaching Kylie’s brows to match her skin. “We even tested no brows just to see how far we could push it,” the hairstylist revealed.

Rosales wanted a similar effect as the dress with Kylie’s hair, noting he wanted “tension between something sculpted and something undone.” He styled the entertainer’s hair in curly waves, allowing the midsection to have more precise shaping around the face, and a kiss-curl over the eye area.

Kylie Jenner Is No Stranger To Post Met Gala Hiccups

Kylie’s bleached eyebrow drama isn’t the first time her fashion statements have caused undesirable aftermaths. Last year, she attended the annual fashion event in a sleek, futuristic Ferragamo ensemble that gave off corseted elegance.

She complemented the stunning look with a pair of strappy stilettos that later became the price she had to pay for beauty. After the event, HOLA! reported that Kylie had shared her woes on Instagram, revealing the shoes were stuck to her feet.

Kylie had shared a video of her assistants spraying glue release on the shoes while trying to pry her feet out. The process appeared painful, as the reality TV star could be heard wincing. As for what happened, Kylie explained that Ferragamo’s creative director, Maximilian Davis, had advised her to tape her shoes to her feet.

Was Kylie Jenner’s Met Gala look worth ruining her eyebrows?

2026 has been a massive year for Prime Video so far, but the success it has seen this year dates back to the end of 2025. On December 16, 2025, Prime Video debuted the long-awaited second season of Fallout, its hit sci-fi series based on the popular video game franchise of the same name. Prime Video was so confident that Fallout was going to perform that the show was renewed for Season 3 months before an episode of Season 2 hit the air. Prime Video is also fresh off the success of the fourth season of Invincible, which just went off the air a few weeks ago. After a considerable gap between the first and second seasons, though, Prime Video has since righted the ship and released new seasons of Invincible at a much quicker pace since Season 2 — Season 5 is already confirmed to premiere in 2027.

However, one show that’s been on the air longer than both Fallout and Invincible is The Boys, the hit superhero series that tackles a much more realistic take on what superheroes would be like in the real world. The Boys arrived back in 2019, and the show has consistently put out new seasons every year or two. At the conclusion of Season 4 back in 2024, Prime Video renewed The Boys for Season 5, confirming that it would be the show’s final season. There are now only a few episodes remaining in The Boys Season 5, but Prime Video just made a game-changing announcement for the series. The Boys series finale is officially coming to theaters on May 19, one day before the final episode is set to air on Prime Video. A new poster has also been released to celebrate the announcement.

Your Fate Has Been Calculated
You’d Survive In…

Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.

The Resistance, Zion

The Matrix

You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.

• You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
• You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
• You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
• The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.

The Wasteland

The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.

• You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
• You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
• You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
• In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.

You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.

• You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
• In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
• You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
• In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.

Arrakis

Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.

• Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
• You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
• Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
• In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.

A Galaxy Far, Far Away

The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.

• You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
• You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
• You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
• In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.

What’s Happening in ‘The Boys’ Season 5 Right Now?

The latest events in The Boys Season 5 have Homelander (played by Antony Starr) and his father, Soldier Boy (played by Jensen Ackles), racing against The Boys to find V1. The original Compound V formula not only produced the strongest supes when it was first invented, but it also made those who could survive it completely immortal. If Homelander gets his hands on V1, there’s no one or nothing that can stop him from killing whoever he wants. The Boys aim to use a supe-killing virus to take him out before he can acquire the ultimate upgrade.

Check out new episodes of The Boys on Prime Video and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the series.

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Beth and Rip have never exactly been the kind of couple you’d expect to settle quietly into a peaceful life, and honestly, thank God for that. After everything they survived in Montana, the dream of a clean fresh start always felt slightly optimistic, if not completely delusional. There are some people who carry trouble with them like luggage, and these two have basically packed an entire emotional moving truck. Now, the next chapter of the Yellowstone universe is almost here, and the official trailer makes one thing very clear: peace will have to wait.

The official trailer for Dutton Ranch is out now, with Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser returning as Beth Dutton and Rip Wheeler. The new Paramount+ Original Series premieres globally on Paramount+ on Friday, May 15, with its first two episodes. The series will also premiere on Paramount Network the same day at 8 p.m. ET/PT, also with two episodes, before continuing weekly throughout the season.

The new series finds Beth and Rip staking their claim in Rio Paloma, Texas, where they’re trying to build a future together away from the poisoned Dutton legacy of Montana. Obviously, because this is Beth and Rip, that future doesn’t stay quiet for long. They can’t help themselves, can they? The official synopsis teases a brutal new chapter for the couple, as they face new enemies who might just be as ruthless as they are.

“As Beth and Rip fight to build a future together — far from the ghosts of Yellowstone — they collide with brutal new realities and a ruthless rival ranch that will stop at nothing to protect its empire. In South Texas, blood runs deeper, forgiveness is fleeting, and the cost of survival might just be your soul.”

Who Stars in ‘Dutton Ranch’?

The cast includes Finn Little (Those Who Wish Me Dead, Storm Boy) as Carter, Juan Pablo Raba (Narcos, The 33) as Joaquin, Jai Courtney (Suicide Squad, Terminator Genisys) as Rob-Will, J.R. Villarreal (Akeelah and the Bee, Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion) as Azul, Marc Menchaca (Ozark, The Outsider) as Zachariah, Natalie Alyn Lind (The Gifted, Big Sky) as Oreana, Ed Harris (The Truman Show, Apollo 13) as Everett McKinney, and Annette Bening (American Beauty, Nyad) as Beulah Jackson. The series is created by Chad Feehan, based on characters created by Taylor Sheridan and John Linson. Feehan also serves as showrunner, while Christina Alexandra Voros directs multiple episodes, including the premiere and finale.

Dutton Ranch premieres May 15 on Paramount+ with a two-episode launch, and airs the same night on Paramount Network at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

Watch With Us loves the movies of the 1980s — from teen classics like Sixteen Candles to iconic action-thrill rides like The Terminator, it’s undeniable that the ’80s were a great year for cinema.

We love returning to this decade time and time again, and we put together a list of three ’80s movies he can’t help but revisit.

Our first pick is Paris, Texas, an epic, arthouse road drama starring Harry Dean Stanton and Nastassja Kinski that will rip your heart out.

We also highlight Dead Poets Society if you’re looking for the perfect feel-good watch.

Here at Watch With Us, we love the ’80s. With the recent premiere of Stranger Things‘ final season, we’ve got the best of the ’80s on the brain. Watch With Us wants to celebrate some of the decade’s cinema offerings by highlighting five particularly rewarding movies that we feel are worth checking out a second […]

Emerging from the West Texas desert is an unkempt man named Travis Henderson (Dean Stanton), who appears to be unable to speak. When he’s found after fainting in a convenience store, a doctor phones his estranged brother Walt (Dean Stockwell), who awkwardly reunites with the sibling who had been missing for four years. Things only become stranger when Travis is reunited with his young son, Hunter (Hunter Carson), and together they embark on a road trip to find Travis’ wife, Hunter’s mother, Jane (Nastassja Kinski).

Profound, melancholic and visually stunning, Paris, Texas reigns as an enduring cult classic. The film thoughtfully explores themes about loneliness, love and redemption, expressed with deep emotional nuance through Stanton’s haunting performance as Travis. Cinematographer Robby Müller captures a neon-drenched urban Americana and the expansive desert that surrounds it, using shades of red and blue to evoke the characters’ emotional states.

English teacher John Keating (Robin Williams) begins work at the prestigious Welton Academy, an all-boys prep school that is iconic for its long-standing traditions and rigorous standards. While a Welton alumnus himself, Keating utilizes unorthodox methods to teach his students, encouraging them to “seize the day” and live life to the fullest in spite of the overbearing pressures they face from the school and their parents. Together, a group of students, including Neil Perry (Robert Sean Leonard) and Todd Anderson (Ethan Hawke), take Keating’s teachings to heart as they learn to embrace their individualism.

Dead Poets Society is a feel-good classic, led by a scene-stealing turn by Williams. The movie’s final “O Captain! My Captain!” scene is iconic, but if that’s the only part of the film you’re familiar with, then you need to get to educating yourself. Dead Poets Society is a moving coming-of-age story about discovering your true sense of self and learning to challenge rigid institutions of authority. At the end of the day, the film is a heartwarming, mainstream movie-making at its very best.

Based on Thomas Harris’ novel Red Dragon, of the same universe as The Silence of the Lambs, Manhunter precedes the story of Clarice Starling and Buffalo Bill by focusing on FBI criminal profiler Will Graham (William Petersen) and his hunt for the elusive “Tooth Fairy” killer, Francis Dollarhyde (Tom Noonan). Called out of early retirement, Graham enlists the help of notorious, convicted serial killer and cannibal Hannibal Lecter (Brian Cox) to better understand the way Dollarhyde thinks. Soon, Graham finds himself in a twisted game with Dollarhyde, Lecter and a nosy reporter named Freddy Lounds (Stephen Lang).

Years before Hannibal made the character of Will Graham a beloved television icon through his portrayal by Hugh Dancy (and five years before Anthony Hopkins would prove to be a more memorable Lecter in The Silence of the Lambs), the characters of Red Dragon were first put to the silver screen in Michael Mann‘s seminal neo-noir. Incredibly stylized and superbly acted, Manhunter is probably the most underrated gem of the Hannibal Lecter-verse, yet it’s easily one of the best, with its unique synth soundtrack, moody atmosphere and strong psychological thrills.
