How Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show LSPR Interpreter Made History
The Super Bowl LX halftime show proved to be more than just a musical milestone. It was also a big win for Deaf advocacy. Although Bad Bunny made history as the first predominantly Spanish-language headliner, the real breakthrough came when a Puerto Rican Sign Language (LSPR) interpreter provided access to the deaf and hard-of-hearing community, a move that directly honors the linguistic rights of the Puerto Rican Deaf community.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Honored The Puerto Rican Deaf Community
For years, the standard for accessibility at major events has been American Sign Language (ASL). However, for the 220,000 deaf or hard-of-hearing residents of Puerto Rico, ASL isn’t always used.
LSPR evolved from ASL in the early 1900s, but has developed its own unique pacing, slang, and cultural nuances that make it a separate language. Despite its importance to the Puerto Rican community, linguistic experts have categorized LSPR as an endangered language. Advocacy for its use is a fight for the survival of a specific cultural heritage, and watching it being performed during the Super Bowl only highlights the importance of maintaining the language.

How Celimar Rivera Cosme Started Working With Bad Bunny
Celimar Rivera Cosme was the LSPR interpreter who provided services during the Super Bowl halftime show. Cosme is a native of Puerto Rico. She is hard of hearing and was hired directly by the NFL to interpret Bad Bunny’s set.
However, that doesn’t mean she’s unfamiliar with the superstar. She began working with him in 2022 after an Instagram video she made went viral. According to San Francisco PBS member station KQED, she begged him to include an LSPR interpreter at his shows, and he hired her a week after she posted the video.

Celimar Rivera Cosme Explains The Importance Of LSPR
According to a 2022 report, approximately seven percent of Puerto Rico’s residents identify as either deaf or hard-of-hearing. This would account for approximately 220,000 people in their overall population of 3.2 million.
“We’ve been fighting not to lose our language, but to keep it,” Cosme told The New York Times in an interview ahead of her performance. “The Super Bowl will be an excellent platform for us to use our language.”
She was also thankful for her opportunity to showcase Puerto Rico’s culture and language during the Super Bowl, one of the most-watched sports events of the year.

“The stakes here are to show that we are friendly people, and also how we dance, our lyrics, our slang,” she told the Times. “Puerto Rico… we might be a small island, but people here have a huge, huge heart.”

Celimar Rivera Cosme Was ‘Thrilled’ To Interpret The Super Bowl
In addition, Cosme told KQED that she was “excited” to perform, knowing it would make the people of Puerto Rico “happy” to see their language showcased in such a public way.
“I’m so excited,” she said. “And the deaf people of Puerto Rico are happy that the Super Bowl will be accessible to them in their own sign language.”
She went on to say, “I know I’m going to be the one standing up there, but it’s the deaf community of my island that’s going to shine.”
A Couple Got Married During Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
Only a few days before Valentine’s Day, love was in the air at the Super Bowl halftime show! According to KION, that was a real wedding that took place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. A pastor from Sacramento, Antonio Reyes from Sacramento’s Project Church, confirmed that he really married the couple in a message posted in Spanish on his Instagram page.
“Ahora ya que el secreto se a revelado… esto fue un honor para mí como latino y como un seguidor de Jesús ser presencia en un momento tan histórico como éste. Tengo más por compartir con ustedes,” he wrote, which can be loosely translated as, “Now that the secret is out… this was an honor for me as a Latino and as a follower of Jesus to be in the presence of such a historic moment as this. I have more to share with you.”

Bad Bunny Dancer Pulls Back Curtain On Super Bowl Takeover
Bad Bunny
Crew Pulls Back Curtain On Halftime Show
… Was Love Letter To Puerto Rico
Published
TMZSports.com
Bad Bunny used the Super Bowl stage to tell a story about his culture — and his crew says the message was loud and clear!
TMZ Sports caught up with members of the global superstar’s cast at LAX on Monday after their big halftime performance … and they say their focus wasn’t just about putting on a show, it was about putting Puerto Rican culture front and center on the world’s biggest stage.
“I was blown away myself,” one of his backup dancers, Chris, told us.
“I feel like it’s such a monumental moment culturally. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico and everything they did culturally, I feel like they tapped in perfectly.”
He continued, saying the performance perfectly tapped into both the struggle and the beauty of growing up on the island.
And, Bad Bunny didn’t just show up and perform … he was deeply involved in building the show from the ground up. In fact, the dancer says Benito stayed hands-on throughout rehearsals … constantly weighing in on creative ideas and making sure every detail matched his vision.
“Doing this was beyond me,” Chris said. “I was fortunate enough to be a part of this and it’ll be part of history forever. To all those people that wanna do stuff after me, I feel like this was a stamp from time to know that you can do that.”
TMZSports.com
We also caught up with Victor Villa — owner of Villa’s Tacos in Los Angeles — who snagged a surprise spotlight during the halftime opener, “Tití Me Preguntó.”
During the performance, Bad Bunny bursts out from the sugar cane fields, grabs a shaved ice from a street vendor … then turns and hands it off to Villa, who was working a taco cart onstage.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
“I thank Benito for that, for bringing all the Latinos together and really giving us a platform to not only share our craft but to meet other amazing people who made an amazing show,” Villa said.
He added that business is booming since the performance, but Villa’s main takeaway was about Benito as a person, describing him as “a man of so much love.”
Halftime wasn’t just a concert … it was a statement.

We got the Democratic Senator from Massachusetts in the underground tunnel system under the Capitol and she made our camera man Charlie Cotton work hard to go step-for-step.
Liz was on her way to the Senate for a speech about ICE funding when we chopped it up with her about a ton of topics … including footwear.
The Senator says she doesn’t wear heels because she walks around all day … and jokes she wears a good pair of sneakers to keep in “fighting shape.”
Liz also tells us the secret to her speed-walking and explains why her dog and her husband keep her chugging along in a ruthless town.
Charlie’s accustomed to walk and talks with celebs at LAX, but Liz is giving him a run for his money here … literally.

Epstein Files Include Provocative Videos, DOJ Says No Crimes on Camera
Epstein Files
Videos Of Nearly Naked Women Unearthed …
But DOJ Says Not Criminal
Published
DOJ
Jeffrey Epstein had a massive stash of videos depicting young, scantily clad females — and we’re now getting a glimpse into the pedophile’s perverted world — although none of it is criminal, at least according to the Department of Justice.
The DOJ recently released roughly 2,000 redacted videos as part of the latest dump of the Epstein Files … and while you can see several of the victims in their underwear … at no point do you ever see Epstein, or anyone else, touching or engaging with them in any way.
Check out the video showing a compilation of women whose faces the DOJ has concealed to protect their identities. Most of them are striking various poses or mimicking models walking a runway.
Considering Epstein’s reputation, there’s an obvious reason for concern … but the feds say there were no crimes committed in these videos. In a 2025 memo, an FBI agent wrote they confiscated videos and photos from Epstein’s electronic devices at his residences in NYC and Palm Beach.
After reviewing all the content, the FBI found no evidence the women were abused in the videos or in the pics. It’s not clear how old they are, but the FBI agent on the case wrote … some of the females could be in their late teens.
Earlier this month, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche voiced similar rhetoric about the files, in general, telling CNN’s Dana Bash, the DOJ “reviewed the files, the quote Epstein files, and there was nothing in there that allowed us to prosecute anybody.”
Almost everyone else disagrees with Blanche and the DOJ, believing Epstein’s alleged accomplices should all be prosecuted and sent to prison. As you know, Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s cohort, is the only Epstein associate to be convicted for conspiring with Epstein to sexually abuse minors. She’s currently serving her 20-year sentence in federal prison.

Hollywood Divided Over Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show
Bad Bunny definitely left an impression on everyone who watched his Super Bowl Halftime Show performance, be it good or bad.
The entertainer’s call for unity and love in America touched the hearts of many within Hollywood, while other celebrities and public figures were more concerned with the lack of subtitles.
Stars like John Mellencamp, Kacey Musgraves, and Meghan McCain loved the show, while others like Donald Trump and Jake Paul were unimpressed by the singer’s performance.

Bad Bunny Receives His Flowers From Multiple A-Listers

The Puerto Rican rapper/singer received positive reactions from several celebrities on X, with renowned singer-songwriter Mellencamp giving him a raving review.
“I don’t know what Bad Bunny is saying; however, I do know he is standing up for Puerto Rico, and I am standing up for him. His halftime show was great,” Mellencamp wrote.
Fellow singer-songwriter Musgraves echoed similar sentiments, using the moment to slam Turning Point USA’s halftime show. “Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done,” she declared. Political commentator McCain shared the same view, questioning critics’ taste.

“I’m sorry, but I just genuinely question your taste level if you didn’t enjoy the Bad Bunny halftime show,” McCain quipped. “And everything in life doesn’t have to be ruined with politics.” She received a thumbs-up from Piers Morgan, who similarly loved Bad Bunny’s performance.

The Reviews Turned Political As Public Figures Weighed In

Morgan approved McCain’s message after slamming Donald Trump’s reaction to Bad Bunny’s performance. The President had penned a scathing review on his Truth Social platform, labeling the show “absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER!”
Trump claimed Bad Bunny’s performance was “a ‘slap in the face’ to our Country” and stressed that there was nothing inspirational about the show. He found faults with the non-English songs and the “disgusting” dancing, claims Morgan refuted as false.
The reactions to Bad Bunny’s performance turned political, with public figures like Martin Luther King III weighing in. In his tweet, the human rights activist thanked the Puerto Rican rapper for “an incredible—and important—performance.” He noted his late father would have approved of his message.

United States Representative Jasmine Crockett similarly applauded Bad Bunny for understanding the assignment. Governor Gavin Newsom shared the same view, thanking the singer for a “beautiful” show.

Two Real Housewives Were Unimpressed By Bad Bunny’s Performance

On the other hand, not everyone in Hollywood was a fan of Bad Bunny’s halftime show. The “Real Housewives of New York City” alum Jill Zarin had plenty to say about the Puerto Rican entertainer’s performance, as seen in a video reposted on X.
She slammed the performance as “the worst halftime show ever,” arguing that it was inappropriate for the songs to have been sung in Spanish. Zarin was also offended by Bad Bunny’s dancing, claiming he grabbed his crotch one too many times and believed it was a sign of insecurity.
“I don’t speak Spanish, I would’ve liked to have known the words he was saying. To me, it looked like a political statement because there were literally no white people in the entire thing,” Zarin said. The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Taylor Armstrong was equally unimpressed.
Armstrong shared a picture of Russell Crowe from “Gladiator” on her Instagram Story, with her head photoshopped onto his. She captioned the post, “Were you entertained?? I am embarrassed for the @NFL and Apple for the Super Bowl halftime show totally in Spanish with a Cuban flag!!”

Candace Owens’ Reaction To The Two Halftime Shows

After Bad Bunny was announced as the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show headline performer, Turning Point USA declared it would host its own halftime show for the American people. Both shows went down on February 8, with Candace Owens significantly disappointed.
The Blast covered her reaction to both shows, reporting she shared her thoughts on X in a series of tweets. The political commentator stressed that she disliked both performances, noting that Bad Bunny’s performance wasn’t enjoyable as it wasn’t in English.
On the other hand, TPUSA’s performances did not move her, nor did she like the Charlie Kirk Foundation’s alleged attempt to increase its views through scams. “The left vs. right grift is actually boring now. What exactly are we doing here, America?” Owens wondered.
The Paul Brothers Clashed Over Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show Performance
Hollywood wasn’t the only place divided by Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance, as the Paul brothers clashed over their differences. The Blast reported that the drama began when Jake Paul implored fans to boycott the Puerto Rican singer’s show.
“Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that,” Jake wrote. His younger brother, Logan Paul, immediately distanced himself from the drama by refuting Jake’s stance.
Logan stressed that he loves his brother; however, he could not support his message. He clarified that Puerto Ricans were Americans, and he was happy that a member of their community got the opportunity to showcase their talents. Jake has since taken back his use of “fake American.”

‘Twilight’s Dr. Carlisle Cullen Isn’t Done With His Most Morally Messy Medical Role [Exclusive]
For Twilight fans, Peter Facinelli will forever be known as Carlisle Cullen, the benevolent doctor and head of the Cullen family. From 2008 to The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 in 2012, he was one of the most unique vampires to ever take the screen, completely conquering his thirst for human blood and proving himself as driven primarily by his compassion for his family and his patients alike. However, while the actor was making the five-film saga, he was also busy in a very different medical role on the small screen. Showtime counted him among the staff of All Saints’ Hospital in the Emmy-winning dark comedy-drama, Nurse Jackie.
In the Edie Falco-starring hit, Facinelli was the “Golden Boy” Dr. Fitch Cooper, a petulant, deeply competitive, and nervous emergency room doctor who still managed to be a likable presence despite his flaws. Compared to Carlisle, however, he showed a completely different side to what a physician could be on-screen. Before a post-con screening of the original Twilight at Big Lick Comic-Con over the weekend in Roanoke, Virginia, Collider’s Maggie Lovitt held a Q&A session with Facinelli and Kellan Lutz in the Historic Grandin Theater, where the subject of the unhinged Nurse Jackie and, specifically, how the former juggled his roles as the two doctors and whether a return as Fitch could be in order, came up. Despite being locked into both roles at the same time and constantly swapping between them, he emphasized there were never any moments of Fitch slipping into Carlisle or vice versa, thanks to the very different, yet uniquely enjoyable experiences both brought.
“So fun… I did a show called Nurse Jackie, and that character’s also a doctor. If you haven’t seen it, he’s like, socially awkward, and he has weird Tourette’s, physical Tourette’s that I won’t get into. And he’s kind of like a 13-year-old boy in a grown man’s body, so he’s very funny to watch. So, I just happened to always be filming both at the same time every year, because that’s when the schedules went, so I would go and shoot like two weeks in Vancouver doing Twilight, and then they’d let me out to go do Nurse Jackie for a week or two. And I’d be flying back and forth, and people would be like ‘Don’t you get the characters mixed up or the lines?’ and I’d say no, because they’re so different. So for me, as an actor, it’s the best time of my life, because I have these two great jobs where I’m playing these two opposite doctors, and one is in a critically acclaimed show and one is like in a franchise that’s doing really well. So, every time I was on an airplane — I felt like I lived on American Airlines because I was just always on an airplane.”
Peter Facinelli Says ‘Nurse Jackie’ and ‘Twilight’ Show Doctors Are More Than Their Jobs
Stepping into the shoes of two doctors who were worlds apart in so many ways at the same time satisfied Facinelli as an actor. Funnily enough, Carlisle, despite being an immortal creature of the night, proved to be the more picturesque image of a good medical professional fighting to save lives and treating his job with the utmost care when compared to Fitch, who wasn’t always the most thorough. Yet, both satisfied vastly different needs in their respective stories and became fan favorites in their own ways. Each also got plenty of runway to evolve, with Fitch sticking around at All Saints’ for parts of all seven seasons of Nurse Jackie through 2015.
Facinelli believes that, in taking on both Twilight and Nurse Jackie together, he demonstrated that on-screen doctors can’t be stereotyped. While he knows many fans have an assumption of what characters in these professions should be in their heads, he says actors and writers need to focus on the person first, and not their line of work. Doctors can be renegades, like House, compassionate goofballs, like Hawkeye Pierce in M*A*S*H, or complete messes like The Simpsons‘ cheery Dr. Nick Riviera, and so much more that their job doesn’t necessarily define.
“But, like, as an actor, to have two fantastic jobs and have together doctors who could be completely different and so fun to shoot. And it shows you that people often think that doctors are a certain way, and so they’re like ‘Oh, you play a lot of doctor roles, you must be this type of person,’ but it’s not the occupation you play. It’s the person in the occupation you play. So, like, a fireman can be a lot of different people, a police officer could be completely… so a lot of times, early on, if you’re a young actor, you’re like ‘Oh, doctors act like this, lawyers act like this, plumbers act like this!’ It’s not, it’s just their job to do, so you find the person and the character within the occupation.”
Facinelli Would Gladly Return for a ‘Nurse Jackie’ Reboot
Finally, Lovitt asked in a follow-up about what Facinelli knew about the Nurse Jackie reboot. News broke back in 2023 that the medical dramedy and fellow Showtime darling Weeds were being eyed for reboots that would bring back both Falco as Jackie Payton and Mary-Louise Parker as Nancy Botwin. Despite changing hands to Prime Video and seemingly gaining momentum, however, Falco revealed last year that nothing concrete was in place and, so far, Nurse Jackie was just talk. A story idea following Jackie’s attempts to stay on the straight and narrow after losing her nursing license, with Liz Flahive and Abe Sylvia writing, was said to be in place, though, and Falco hasn’t been willing to give up on the possibility that something could eventually happen.
“I heard something about it!” Facinelli confirmed before assuring that he’d be all-in if he was ever asked to come back. “No one ever reached out to me, so maybe they’re doing it without me. [Laughs] No, I don’t think they ever did it, but I would love to again revisit the part, too.” He sees any chance to get to reprise a long-time role as sacred, because, once it’s over, he knows all too well the sting of saying goodbye to a character for good. That may be the one thing both Fitch and Carlisle have in common — both were huge parts of his life that left him with a sense of loss when they were over.
“The sad part is, you play these roles, then, when the job is over, that character kind of dies. I honestly go through a period, I don’t know if you do, but there’s like a three-to-four-day, sometimes longer period where you kind of feel sad because this person that you’re playing no longer exists. And you can see them and watch them on a screen, but they’re no longer part of you, and they don’t belong to you; they belong to an audience. So it’s just, when you’re finished with a character, you definitely feel a sense of loss. Yeah, so being able to revisit that is always incredible. I mean, I did Nurse Jackie for seven years, and I was able to revisit that character over and over, and it would grow with me, and same with Twilight. It was a five-six-year period where we got to all come together all the time.”
Nurse Jackie is currently streaming on Netflix. Stay tuned here at Collider for more from Big Lick Comic-Con.

Andy Cohen Responds to Jill Zarin’s Super Bowl Halftime Remarks
Bad Bunny took to the Super Bowl Halftime stage on February 8, delivering a high-energy performance that has drawn both praise and criticism. One of the show’s outspoken critics was “Real Housewives of New York City” alum Jill Zarin. Now, one of her former bosses, Andy Cohen, has a perfectly shady response as fans also weigh in.

Andy Cohen Had A Quick Response To Jill Zarin’s Bad Bunny Comments

Cohen took to his “Radio Andy” SiriusXM radio show on February 9 to react to what Zarin had to say about the Super Bowl. He said in the clip, “And in terms of Jill, just… I don’t know. You know, call E!” After that, Cohen’s co-host then noted that former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Taylor Armstrong had also made disparaging remarks regarding the Super Bowl.
The “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” host then said, “Two people who are not employed by Bravo anymore, so just…” Regarding Cohen saying, “Call E!,” he’s referring to the recently announced series featuring Zarin and several of her fellow “Real Housewives of New York City” alums.

The Former ‘RHONY’ Star Had Quite A Bit To Say

Zarin has never been shy about sharing her opinions, and the former “RHONY” star was no different when it came to the 2026 Super Bowl with Bad Bynny as the Halftime Show headliner. She began in the video, which she originally posted to Instagram, “So we all agree, I said it before, that it was the worst halftime show ever, and it’s 250 years that we’re celebrating right now in the United States, and I just don’t think it was appropriate to have it in Spanish.”
She continued, “And quite frankly, I didn’t want to see him grabbing his G-area. I think it was totally inappropriate. You’ve got all these kids, young kids, watching the Super Bowl, and he doesn’t have to be grabbing himself every five seconds. Is he so insecure? Seriously.”

From there, the former “Real Housewives” star reiterated that she wished she could have understood the lyrics. She went on, “For me, it looked like a political statement because there were literally no white people in the entire thing. I think it was a political statement, and I’m not taking a side one way or another. I just do. I think it was an ICE thing.”

The Reality Star Also Called Out Lady Gaga And The NFL

Zarin’s commentary on the Super Bowl Halftime Show didn’t end there. The former “Real Housewives of New York City” star also had words for the NFL and Lady Gaga, who joined Bad Bunny on stage for a Salsa rendition of “Die With a Smile.” She said, “I just think the NFL sold out, and it’s very sad because this is 75 years, and you know, shame. Shame.”
After that, she went on to assert that Gaga had gotten plastic surgery, claiming not to recognize the pop superstar. According to Zarin, “And Lady Gaga got a facelift. I didn’t recognize her. I literally had to Google her face to see who it was. We all couldn’t agree who it was, so that was kind of fun in the middle of halftime. At least it gave me something to do because it was so hard to watch.”

Fans Are Outraged Over The Former Bravo Star’s Comments
Following Zarin’s comments going viral, many fans of “The Real Housewives of New York City” reacted. One person mentioned her upcoming show, saying, “We need a petition to fire Jill Zarin before she even starts filming.” Comedian Dustin Ross said, “I never liked Jill Zarin anyway because she looks like her perfume stinks.”
Another fan wrote, “Not Jill Zarin being mad that there weren’t any ‘white people’ in Bad Bunny’s performance. Here’s to hoping her new show FLOPS.” Someone else said, “I won’t track or watch another thing about her low-budget, future flop of a show – except to report that Jill Zarin is 74.”
A different X user stated, “Someone check on Jill Zarin and Taylor Armstrong’s agents today because we’re likely inside 12 hours to a press release that they’ve been replaced for this Palm Beach project.”

Andy Cohen Recently Reacted To The Upcoming Show
Before Zarin’s comments, Cohen expressed positive views about the upcoming E! series, “The Golden Life.” According to Deadline, he said on his radio show, “I’m so excited for them. I texted the ladies yesterday. I think it’s gonna be a great show. I could never root against these women.”
Cohen continued, “I absolutely love them. I love them together. So does America. I’m gonna speak for America, and I think it’s gonna be great, and I can’t wait to watch, and I’m happy for them.”
It’s unclear when they will film “The Golden Life,” but it was previously reported that the E! network wanted to air it by the end of 2026.

Chris Evans’ Dystopian Sci-Fi Film Is Suddenly Clicking With ‘Silo’ Fans on Free Streaming
A post-apocalyptic sci-fi series, when done right, should hook you in, leave you with lingering questions, mounting curiosity, and a sense of unease that keeps you glued to its fictional dystopia. If there’s any show that has nailed that hard, it is Apple TV‘s Silo. With its success, the appetite for similarly high-concept, thought-provoking sci-fi has only grown. Fortunately, stories built around rigid hierarchies and claustrophobic futures are nothing new to film. One Chris Evans–led sci-fi blockbuster that hits many of the same thematic notes has recently resurfaced on streaming and is rapidly climbing the charts as a free-to-watch hit.
Silo follows Juliette Nichols (Rebecca Ferguson), an engineer living among the remnants of humanity inside a vast underground bunker after an apocalyptic catastrophe. The silo hides secrets beneath its rigid rules, and Juliette’s search for answers uncovers a mystery that threatens to unravel a carefully constructed lie about the world beyond its walls. Season 2 ends on a massive cliffhanger, with an uprising brewing inside the silo as newly uncovered truths ignite growing unrest. Silo mirrors Chris Evans’ post-apocalyptic film Snowpiercer (2013) in its strict class divide and ambitious high-concept world-building.
Instead of an underground bunker, the scheming in Snowpiercer unfolds aboard a massive train that endlessly circles the globe, powered by a sacred perpetual-motion engine. The film imagines the aftermath of a catastrophic attempt to reverse global warming that instead plunges Earth into a devastating ice age, wiping out most life on the planet. The last surviving humans are confined to the Snowpiercer, where a brutal class system takes hold. The poorest passengers are crammed into the filthy rear cars while the elite live in comfort and excess at the front. As resentment festers, a rebellion led by Evans’ Curtis Everett breaks out. Directed by Bong Joon Ho, the film also stars Tilda Swinton, Jamie Bell, Octavia Spencer, and Ed Harris.
‘Snowpiercer’ Was a Commercial and Critical Hit
Snowpiercer was a South Korean co-production and, with a reported $40 million budget, ranks among the most expensive films ever produced in the country. The gamble paid off handsomely. The film became an international hit, shattering multiple box office records in South Korea, including the highest opening figure for a Korean film and the fastest to reach four million admissions. It ultimately grossed more than $86 million worldwide, though its U.S. box office stalled at just $4 million, due to a post-production dispute between director Joon Ho and distributor Harvey Weinstein.
Snowpiercer was also a critical success, earning a 94% rating and a consensus that praised it as “an audaciously ambitious action spectacular for filmgoers numb to effects-driven blockbusters.” More than a decade after its release, the film continues to draw audiences, ranking among the most popular titles on streaming. It’s currently available to watch for free on Pluto TV, where, at the time of writing, it sits as the fifth most popular title among U.S. viewers. The film also spawned a four-season television adaptation of the same name, which has likewise been enjoying a recent surge on the streaming charts.
You can watch Snowpiercer for free on Pluto TV, while the Snowpiercer TV series is available to stream in the US on Starz, AMC+, and on Netflix internationally.

Stephen King-Approved 4-Part Horror Series Gets a Major Streaming Boost
MGM+ is fast becoming to horror fans what Apple TV+ is to sci-fi fans in the age of streaming. While it hasn’t yet broken into the mainstream like some of its bigger streaming rivals, the Amazon-backed platform is definitely on to something, and they are doing it right. While Apple TV+ boasts sci-fi shows like Severance and Pluribus, MGM+ is positioning itself as home to some bone-chilling titles, including The Institute and Chapelwaite, both of which are based on Stephen King novels.
MGM+’s biggest export, however, is the popular mystery horror series FROM, which continues to draw comparisons with the 2004 sci-fi horror series Lost, which set the bar for a mysterious tale that only bore a hole deeper into its lore. FROM premiered its first Season in 2022 and has since consistently maintained its spot on MGM’s Top 10 charts. While rankings typically shuffle to reflect changing audience appetite, From has never slipped outside the Top 10. Even The Institute, based on King’s novel and written for television by Benjamin Cavell, has been unable to wrestle FROM‘s crown despite receiving critical acclaim.
FROM is one of the most terrifying shows on television, and it stars Lost alum Harold Perrineau in the lead role. According to data obtained from FlixPatrol, FROM has expanded its sphere of influence, dominating several streaming platforms across multiple countries. The MGM+ series was created by John Griffin, who also serves as a writer and executive producer, and the sci-fi horror has sprung to life on platforms like MGM+, Catchplay, Starz, and Paramount+, among others. The show’s global reach is also growing as the series finds itself within the Top 10 of several countries using the aforementioned platforms, including France, Italy, Morocco, and Australia.
‘FROM’ Season 4 Is Poised To Be Groundbreaking
Griffin’s FROM centers on a cursed town that traps anyone who enters. The story begins with the Matthews family, whose road trip takes a terrifying detour when they stumble into the town, only to realize there’s no way out. Alongside other trapped residents, they race to unravel the town’s dark secrets before they’re all consumed by the malevolent forces that lurk after dark. The King of Horror himself, Stephen King, approves of the show, and he is not alone, as reflected by the show’s strong score of 96% from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. The show has thrived for three seasons, and MGM+ quickly greenlit a fourth season after the third finished airing. Season 4 finished filming in November 2025, with a trailer dropping in early February 2026.
MGM+ has also released a full synopsis for the fourth season of FROM, which can be found below:
“In Season Four, the closer the residents of town get to the answers they seek, the more terrifying their search becomes. Who is the Man in Yellow, and what does he want? Will Jade and Tabitha’s revelation be the key to finally going home? How much longer can Boyd hold the town together, even as his body and mind are falling apart? And what role will the town’s most recent arrival play in the events to come? Season Four will open doors that some in town will end up wishing had remained closed.”
Stay tuned to Collider for more updates on FROM Season 4, and catch up on the first three seasons on MGM+.
