Tom Clancy is no longer with us, but his extensive novel series of military fiction, centered on CIA analyst Jack Ryan and Special Forces operative John Clark, continues to be a gold mine for Hollywood adaptations. The Hunt for Red October is the best submarine movie of the last 40 years, Patriot Games was one of Harrison Ford’s best action movies of the 90s, and John Krasinski’s Amazon series, Jack Ryan, is a smash hit. Notably absent to longtime Clancy fans is that one of his best novels has yet to be adapted. It’s been almost 30 years, and there’s still no Rainbow Six adaptation.

Rainbow Six Is A Hit Waiting To Happen

Before Rainbow Six became a wildly successful video game series, it was Tom Clancy’s 11th novel, and in the Clancyverse, this was like the Avengers getting together. The elite counterterrorism unit Rainbow, named because it was comprised of the best of the best from NATO member countries, was formed as a rapid response strike force. Led by John Clarke and his son-in-law, Domingo “Ding” Chavez, they stopped a bank robbery, a hostage situation, and took out a secret cabal of the global elite. All in one book. 

Amazon teased fans with the establishment of Rainbow during Jack Ryan Season 4. Michael Pena, as “Ding” Chavez, was clearly being set up as the team’s field leader. Michael B. Jordan was already established as the new John Clark in the streaming adaptation of Without Remorse, and though he’s significantly younger then the Clark of the novels at the point Rainbow is established, he’s Michael B. Jordan, he’d kill in the role. As with so many backdoor pilots over the years, it would seem Amazon has quietly killed the Rainbow Six spin-off.

Amazon Can’t Commit To The Clancyverse

Instead of giving fans the adaptation they want, Amazon produced the streaming movie Jack Ryan: Ghost War, a continuation of the series that ended in 2023. It’s a shadow of what the series was, and wastes Krasinski’s performance, but it was also meant to be a feature film release. In theaters that is, instead of debuting on Amazon Prime. That’s a sign of the problem at Amazon that’s keeping the world from experiencing Rainbow Six. 

In order to figure out what Amazon wants to do with the Clancyverse, fans may need the services of Rainbow’s psychologist, Dr. Paul Bellow, who’s so good at his job the members of Rainbow think he may be a mind reader. Does Amazon want to make more series, feature films, or streaming movies? Rainbow Six was going to be a series, and then retooled into a movie, then there was no news for months. 

The closest fans have to a status update is from Michael Pena. When asked by fans, Pena alluded to rights issues with some of the characters, including “Ding” Chavez, as to why the adaptation wasn’t moving forward. Rainbow Six was a best-selling novel, a blockbuster video game series still going today, and it would be perfect for a series or a movie, but pick one. Fans have waited over 30 years to see the Basque terrorists realize they made a horrible mistake at the amusement park, and the Horizon Corporation is the perfect villain in 2026. 

Until Amazon figures out what it’s doing, you can binge Jack Ryan again, run through Harrison Ford’s 90s films, and if you have to, check out Ben Affleck’s take on Jack Ryan in The Sum of All Fears. 

Beatriz Hatz entered the “Love Island” villa in Fiji hoping to find love. However, her time on the popular Peacock reality show came to an end nearly a week ago, as the Paralympic medalist was sent packing after co-star Corbin Mims was forced to save either her or Melanie Moreno. After her departure, Hatz, 25, spoke with Ciara Miller about her time on the show on an episode of “Aftersun.” Now, in a new interview, the Colorado native is spilling even more tea about her “Love Island” experience.

Before she was dumped from the island, Hatz had a connection with Sean Reifel before coupling up with day one bombshell Gabriel Vasconcelos. Throughout her time in the villa, Hatz and Vasconcelos bonded over their cultural similarities, resulting in a union that some “Love Island” viewers believed was among the strongest on the show.

After Hatz was sent packing, though, Vasconcelos immediately coupled up with Jennifer (Jen) Terry and even shared a passionate kiss with her the same night. Speaking with PEOPLE, Hatz said that Vasconcelos’ actions caught her “off guard,” but said that she couldn’t blame him for playing the game.

“I can’t really fault him for moving on. You’re in the villa, you’re supposed to. I don’t want to harp on that, and I don’t want it to change the way that I viewed him,” she said.

Could Hatz See Herself Rekindling Things With Vasconcelos In The Real World?

Before leaving the villa, Hatz implied that she’d wait for Vasconcelos in the outside world. Today, however, she’s singing a different tune, telling the outlet that rekindling things might be off the table.

“I don’t know if we would rekindle anything,” she said. “I know I left and I said, ‘Oh yeah, you know where to find me,’ but he seems to be building a strong connection currently and that’s all I would want for him. So who knows what’s going to happen.”

What Was The Hardest Part Of Filming ‘Love Island’ For Hatz?

While Hatz bumped heads with a few of the islanders, including Melanie Moreno, her feuds with her co-stars weren’t the hardest part of filming the series—it was getting dolled up every night.

“Wearing dresses every day and having to do my makeup in the daytime and the nighttime was very surprising,” she said. “I think I don’t really wear a lot of makeup in the daytime because I’m working out all day. I’m on the track, but then maybe when I go out at night out with my friends, I’ll throw on some pants, some baggy pants and a cute crop top and maybe some sneakers or some cute kitten heels. I’m pretty low-key.”

Hatz explained that wearing dresses and fancy shoes added another layer of difficulty to the process for her. “I can’t move the way I want. You have to sit differently,” she said, adding that she was the “most athletic” girl on the cast, and being around a group of feminine women made her feel like a “tomboy.”

Drama For Some ‘Love Island’ Cast Members

Hatz appeared on an episode of “Aftersun” with Reifel, who spoke openly about being blasted by his former employer, the mayor of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

According to a previous report from The Blast, Mayor William J. Reynolds felt some type of way about Reifel leaving his job as a police officer to film the series, while Bethlehem’s police chief said she was “disappointed” in the 29-year-old.

Reifel responded to their statements, calling them “interesting” before revealing he had a lengthy conversation with his employer about where he was going and why he wanted to request unpaid leave.

“It does bother me because they – just before I left – gave me awards for like, with my partners, taking a lady out of a building on fire and talking someone off a roof that was mentally ill. So, to give me those, and then do something like this? I just don’t understand,” the father of one said.

Contestant Is Removed From The Cast After Previously Using A Racial Slur

Before all of that, drama had reached the “Love Island” villa prior to the new season even starting, as cast member Vasana Montgomery was removed from the series after previous videos of her using a racial slur resurfaced.

A new episode of “Love Island” airs tonight, June 19, on Peacock at 9 PM ET.

Anne Hathaway has millions of fans thanks to her expansive acting catalog, but her husband, Adam Shulman, has always felt like home.

“I knew from the second I met him that he was the love of my life,” Hathaway told Harper’s Bazaar UK in February 2013, less than one year after they got married.

The Princess Diaries star recalled telling a mutual friend of theirs, “I’m going to marry that man,” soon after they first crossed paths. “I think he thought I was a little nuts, which I am a bit, but I’m also nice,” she teased.

Hathaway — who announced in June 2026 that she is expecting her third baby with Shulman — isn’t the only one who is happy she met her match in the jewelry designer.

Adam Shulman and Anne Hathaway Have Matching Tattoos

The Oscar winner revealed during a 2023 appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show that she and Shulman have matching ink.

“We have this thing, it’s actually a tattoo, and the idea is that individually we’re whole, but together we’re more,” Hathaway explained, revealing the letter “M” tattooed on her left wrist. “And so I think it’s just that thing [where] I don’t expect him to complete me and he doesn’t expect me to complete him.”

She added, “I’m my own person. He’s his own person and we choose to be together because we believe we make each other better. And this union is something we both want to participate in.”

Alexis Ohanian, Serena Williams‘ husband, is facing intense public backlash after defending his presence at the recent White House UFC event, where a combatant directed an insult at a former First Lady. 

The prominent investor attempted to clarify his reasons for being at the sports arena by highlighting his corporate connections and previous social activism. 

However, his explanation failed to satisfy critics, who immediately condemned his choices and expressed concern for his household, given the racist undertones of the event.

Ohanian posted a message on X, explaining that while he considered the fighter’s remark about Michelle Obama to be completely offensive, he only attended the sports event because he received an official invitation from high-level corporate executives. 

“Lot of people asking me to comment: Yes, that fighter’s slur about former First Lady Michelle Obama was vile and inappropriate,” he wrote. “I was already on my way home when those comments were made and was glad to see Dana condemn them.” 

Despite his explanation, social media users fiercely attacked his decision to participate in the event, with one individual stating, “Have you ever heard the word No. It’s a complete sentence… shame on you for so many reasons. But I feel bad for your wife and child.”

Eager commentators expressed deep disappointment, with another user declaring, “as a White man married to a Black woman and the father of two Black girls, your a-s shouldn’t have attended that klan fest PERIOD.”

Another comment read, “You could have declined that invite, despite your relation to the sports world. Not a great look.”

Many concluded that the hostile environment directly reflected a deep disrespect for his own loved ones, destroying their previous positive perception of him.

The public outrage directed at Ohanian directly follows a broader wave of national criticism aimed at the sports event’s host. 

The mixed martial arts tournament, officially dubbed the “UFC Freedom 250,” took place on the South Lawn of the White House as part of a joint celebration for a major national milestone and Trump’s 80th birthday.

The main source of tension occurred during a post-fight victory interview, when Josh Hokit, who secured a win over his opponent, referred to the former First Lady as a man, as reported by The Blast.

Rather than displaying immediate disapproval, Trump “appeared to show a half-smile” immediately following the fighter’s unexpected comment. This reaction provoked massive public indignation from people who slammed the president for “normalizing hate.” 

Donald Trump Previously Endorsed Digital Attacks On The Former First Lady

Trump’s reaction at the tournament aligns with a documented pattern of public hostility directed at the former presidential family.

Months before the sports event, he utilized his personal social media network to endorse highly controversial statements targeting the Obamas, written by media personality Laura Loomer. 

Loomer’s statements heavily criticized former national security adviser Susan Rice and the former first family, per The Blast. 

The message Trump endorsed explicitly warned the public that Netflix would broadcast biased messaging from the former president and his spouse, whom the post openly labeled an “anti-white racist” woman.

Alexis Ohanian Pushed Back Against Bleaching Allegations Targeted At Serena Williams 

While Ohanian was bashed for his presence at the UFC event, he has been praised for standing up for his wife, Williams.

Earlier this year, the legendary tennis star was accused of intentionally altering her skin tone after she shared pictures of herself and her family. 

The Blast reported that Ohanian quickly defended her, writing, “Where are all the comments from idiots who don’t understand how photography lighting works?” 

When an online user argued that his defense was merely an attempt to dismiss legitimate observations, the businessman immediately clapped back, stating, “Or: photos from the same event can look different based on lighting.” 

Serena Williams Recently Made An Epic Comeback To Competitive Play

Ohanian’s unwavering support for his wife was similarly on display as he was present to watch her iconic comeback to tennis. After Williams’ lengthy four-year absence from competitive sports, she made her highly anticipated return to the court at the prestigious Queen’s Club Championship in London. 

The major international tournament quickly turned into a celebratory family gathering as Ohanian sat alongside their two young daughters, Olympia and Adira, to proudly cheer Williams on from the stands. 

Williams teamed up with Victoria Mboko, and together, the duo secured a dominant straight-sets victory against their opponents, per The Blast.

Anderson, has been keeping Netflix subscribers entertained; Rip (Cole Hauser) and Beth’s (Kelly Reilly) ranch rivalry in Dutton Ranch has kept Paramount+ subscribers hooked, and Apple TV’s new adaptation of Cape Fear has been topping the streaming charts.

For more recommendations, check out our list of the best shows and movies on Prime Video.

1

‘Every Year After’ (2026)

Rotten Tomatoes: 73% | IMDb: 6.3/10

The Summer I Turned Pretty was arguably Prime Video’s defining show of 2025, and the feature film finale is getting closer by the day. But to pass the time, Prime Video has just debuted the perfect replacement. Every Year After, based on Every Summer After by Carley Fortune, follows Percy Fraser (Sadie Soverall) and Sam Florek (Matt Cornett), who, a decade after falling in love during a summer at Barry’s Bay, explore whether their first love was true love.

A touching, heartwarming series set against a gorgeous backdrop, Every Year After is an easy watch waiting to whisk you away this weekend. All eight episodes in the series are available to watch right now, and, with its success on the streaming charts, there’s a chance this could be the start of another YA franchise. “If showrunner Amy B. Harris has her way, we’ll hopefully be spending more summers in Barry’s Bay, and I’d welcome the chance to return,” said Meredith Loftus in Collider’s review.

2

‘Teen Titans’ (2003–2006)

Rotten Tomatoes: 92% | IMDb: 7.9/10

As The Boys and Invincible have recently shown, superhero shows are hugely popular on Prime Video. So, this weekend, why not head back to 2003 and binge-watch one of the very best? Created by Glen Murakami, David Slack, and Sam Register, Teen Titans follows five teenage superheroes as they face the world’s most evil villains, as well as typical teenage angst.

Few animated superhero shows are better than Teen Titans. A pitch-perfect adaptation of the DC Comics superhero team, 66 episodes of Teen Titans are currently available, with each season growing from strength to strength. With animation inspired by anime and a desire to tackle some nuanced, mature themes, this is a show you certainly won’t regret watching.

3

‘The Night Manager’ (2016–Present)

Rotten Tomatoes: 88% | IMDb: 8.0/10

Although there was a 10-year wait between Season 1 and Season 2, nothing could stop this clever, twisting series from being a hit. Based on the 1993 novel by John le Carré, The Night Manager follows Tom Hiddleston as former military officer-turned-hotel manager Jonathan Pine, as he is caught up in a criminal underworld.

Also featuring the likes of Hugh Laurie, Olivia Colman, Tom Hollander, David Harewood, and Elizabeth Debicki in Season 1 and Diego Calva, Camila Morrone, and Hayley Squires in Season 2, The Night Manager is a star-packed whirlwind that will keep you hooked from its very first moments. A winner of two Primetime Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes, this is one of the best adaptations on streaming today.

Former “Summer House” star West Wilson said he knew that his time on the Bravo reality series was coming to an end long before the network confirmed his departure. In the season 10 bonus episode, titled “The Aftermath,” Wilson, 31, told his co-star, Kyle Cooke, that his performance during one critical moment was the nail in the coffin.

In the “Summer House” bonus episode, Wilson spoke with Cooke about his secretive romance with his estranged wife, Amanda Batula. At the beginning of the conversation, Wilson said that he wanted to meet with Cooke privately; however, the latter suggested they film the sit-down for the cameras since the audience was invested in their personal drama.

During the conversation, Wilson appeared to tell Cooke that he was done filming the Bravo reality show, saying, “This won’t make it, but, like, my time on camera is over.” Continuing, the Missouri native said his departure was due to the “bad job” he did during the season 10 reunion.

Why West Wilson Wanted To Speak With Cooke About His Romance With Batula Privately

Elsewhere in the conversation, Wilson told Cooke, who joined the “Summer House” cast in 2017, why he preferred to meet with him privately rather than on camera.

“In my experience, anything I’ve done following it, publicly, has landed poorly,” Wilson said, referring to the pushback he faced following the season 8 reunion, during which he confirmed he ended things with co-star Ciara Miller after introducing her to his family.

“And so, I didn’t want you to think I, like, waited ’til the reunion was over and then, like, gathered myself and then was like, ‘Oh, let’s film a scene together’ kind of thing. The processing and, like, slowing down and just sort of, like, soaking it all in didn’t really happen until the last two weeks,” he continued.

West Wilson Said He Was Disappointed In Himself For Fracturing Some Of His Friendships

Cooke asked Wilson whether his revelations had come to him “post reunion,” to which Wilson replied, yes.

“I mean, when this all happened, everything was just such a f–king disaster tornado, and there’s so many layers to this. But, like, the friendship part of this has been really hard to process. To watch it fully implode with other people who you care about, I care about, um, f–kin’ sucks. … It’s really f–king hard to know that something so special, like, I f–kin’ super fractured,” Wilson added.

Their conversation occurred months after Wilson confirmed he was dating Batula—Cooke’s estranged wife and Miller’s former best friend. The pair released a joint statement following weeks of speculation, saying their relationship had developed over the years.

Wilson Joined ‘Summer House’ In 2024

Wilson gained significant popularity after joining the cast of “Summer House” in 2024. During his debut season, the sports journalist shared that he was looking for a change after being laid off. He also discussed his love life, revealing that he was scared of commitment.

Over the years, Wilson’s star began to fade as the Bravoverse criticized him for appearing to live one way in front of the cameras and another when they went down. His co-stars also hinted at this being true during the season 10 reunion.

He was fired from the series days ago, according to The Blast, and it’s unclear if he’ll be featured on the program again.

Bravo Exec Speaks About Wilson’s ‘Frustrating’ Reunion Performance

A Bravo and “Summer House” executive discussed Wilson’s fall from grace, according to The Blast, and opened up about why his reunion performance was so bothersome.

“When you watch the reunion, as incredible as it is, and as great television as it is, you walk away feeling a little unsatisfied because of the way that West and Amanda handle themselves,” Noah Samton, the current SVP of production for Bravo and Peacock unscripted, said. “They didn’t explain themselves in a satisfying way. And then there was a whole separate conversation with Meija, who nobody knew anything about. To me, those were the three stories that needed to be fleshed out further.”

“I think we didn’t get that in the reunion, and that was very frustrating for us. So I feel very happy that we were able to make a lot of progress in that ‘Aftermath’ episode,” Samton added.

Anne Hathaway has plenty of iconic roles to be proud of, but perhaps none more special than mom.

The actress married Adam Shulman in 2012, but their path to starting a family wasn’t easy. Hathaway suffered a miscarriage in 2015 while performing in a play that required her to “give birth on stage every night.”

“It was too much to keep it in when I was on stage pretending everything was fine,” she told Vanity Fair about the toll it took on her emotional well-being nearly 10 years later in 2024.

Hathaway and her husband did eventually expand their family with two sons.

Plenty of adventure movies are fun, or if they’re not fun 100% of the time, the darker parts aren’t really overwhelming. You’ve got films like The Princess Bride that are pretty lightweight all the way through, and then maybe The Lord of the Rings is more what you’d expect tonally out of a standard adventure movie, since there are emotional highs and lows there, but ultimately more of a focus on the highs, once all is said and done (also, very little about that trilogy is “standard” in a technical sense, it has to be stressed).

Yet not all adventure movies are wholly fun, or even partly fun. The following ones, for example, are pretty downbeat all the way through, and some are genuinely soul-crushing. They’re the heaviest adventure movies ever made, basically, and maybe some you have to squint at a little, before you see they’re adventure films, but if “adventure” is listed as a genre on either Letterboxd or IMDb, then it’s fair game to be included here.

‘Gerry’ (2002)

Image via THINKFilm

The first entry in a bleak thematic trilogy directed by Gus Van Sant, Gerry does star two very recognizable actors, Casey Affleck and Matt Damon, but is otherwise a pretty difficult-to-approach movie. It’s about their two characters (both named Gerry, because of course they are; it’s that kind of film) getting lost in the desert, and finding it increasingly difficult to get back to somewhere familiar.

It’s not like you can read into it, but more that you have to read into Gerry and come up with something beyond the surface-level stuff here. It’s an art film, and a particularly aggressively artful one at that. Maybe it’s a bit pretentious, too, but it is technically a sort of adventure/survival film, and it’s a pretty anxiety-provoking and overall unhappy one, so it feels like it belongs here, even if its actual quality is kind of questionable and up for debate.

9

‘Beau Is Afraid’ (2023)

Image via A24

The title doesn’t lie, because Beau really is afraid throughout the entirety of Beau Is Afraid. What might be more surprising is just how long he’s afraid for, since Beau Is Afraid comes in at a kind of ridiculous three hours in length. Okay, technically, it’s a couple of minutes shy of three hours, but so are The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers, respectively (at least the theatrical cuts of those films), so being hyper-fixated on the runtime here feels understandable.

It’s definitely an adventure movie, too, albeit a dark and consistently intense one, since the plot here involves a man having to undertake a long trip so he can attend his mother’s funeral, even though the idea of leaving his comfort zone (which doesn’t look too comfortable in the first place) is absolutely terrifying to him. Beyond all that, Beau Is Afraid is also a comedy, more or less, and does succeed at being both a tonal and general nightmare, so approach this one with caution… even if there is quite a lot here to appreciate; like, the sheer gutsiness of it all.

8

‘The Northman’ (2022)

If The Northman counts as an epic, then it is admittedly on the shorter side of things, by epic movie standards, but it does feel pretty big, and you can’t fault its ambition, either. It’s about a young boy whose father is murdered by his uncle, and he escapes while vowing revenge, once he’s older. Then, the film jumps forward, and he is older. Vengeance ensues, and then also, vengeance turns out to be a messy thing to try and get.

There are some strange fantastical elements at play throughout The Northman, and then it’s also got quite a bit of action for something so unusual and unsettling, with all of that adding up to make a fairly unique film, even if the narrative is familiar, what with it being based on the story that influenced the (also influential) Hamlet and all. It’s not quite as downbeat as some of the horror films Robert Eggers has directed, but it’s also not too far off, and is pretty savage and brutal when judged as a fantasy/action/adventure film.

‘El Topo’ (1970)

El Topo is one of the most surreal Westerns ever made, and since it depicts a strange and drawn-out journey, it can technically count itself among the weirdest adventure films of all time, too. The central characters here are a violent man and his son, and they venture through a landscape that gets increasingly bizarre and difficult to navigate, with the whole movie feeling quite episodic, and frequently very violent, too.

For better or worse, El Topo does a very good job at feeling like a nightmare transposed to the big screen, with it being one of the trippiest films not just of its era (which, you know, was pretty trippy in the first place), but maybe even of all time. There are some very dark and unpleasant places it goes to, even for something that seems very willing to push boundaries while running the risk of offending people, so to say it’s not the sort of thing that’s for everyone would be a massive understatement.

‘Watership Down’ (1978)

Sure, it’s an animated movie, and it features rabbits, but Watership Down is indisputably savage and overall a pretty feel-bad affair. The narrative centers on a group of rabbits who have to undertake a journey to some sort of new land after events transpire, and it turns out they can’t really live where they used to anymore. From there, things get dark pretty early on, and eventually, things also get surprisingly violent, too.

By this point, it’s probably well known that Watership Down is not really kid-friendly, or if younger viewers do watch it, they should be warned it’s not going to be sunshine and rainbows, or otherwise very “Disney,” for lack of a better word. It’s not going to surprise people in that sense anymore, because it’s known for being one of the darker animated movies out there that’s not technically only for older audiences, but still, it is surprising, to some extent, where this one’s willing to go, and especially where it eventually ends up narratively and thematically.

‘Deliverance’ (1972)

With Deliverance, you get something that starts out feeling a bit like an adventure movie, with the focus being on a group of friends who go on a river-rafting trip, but then things eventually take a turn that throws the film more into survival/psychological thriller territory. If you know, then you know, and if you don’t know, maybe you’re better off not knowing, because Deliverance – despite its age – is still incredibly confronting.

There’s a lot done here with a simple premise, and the way in which a handful of characters are pushed to their physical and psychological limits. It might well even seem a bit too straightforward, but in execution, Deliverance makes it all work brutally well. The whole movie inspires fear of things you might not have been fearful of before, yet post-Deliverance, such things can never be seen (or heard) through innocent eyes (or ears) ever again.

‘The Descent’ (2005)

The Descent is most easily classified as a horror movie, but it’s got adventure film qualities, too, since it revolves around a group of women going on a caving expedition through increasingly claustrophobic territory. The darkness and the general confinement are already tense enough, but then The Descent throws in some creatures to make the whole experience so much worse for the main characters, and in that way, it transitions from a survival thriller to more of a horror film.

Also, the main character in The Descent is grappling with a recent personal tragedy when she agrees to go on the expedition, so that leads to some extra heaviness, and heaviness that’s there right from the start. The Descent jumps around a lot, making you feel sad at times, unsettled at other points, and then sometimes genuinely terrified, too. It’s a lot to handle, and it’s also really good, so long as you don’t mind feeling on edge throughout, then more than a bit bummed out by the time it’s all over.

‘Sorcerer’ (1977)

There’s a bit of a dilemma here, and it comes down to not feeling comfortable including both The Wages of Fear and Sorcerer, just because they’re heavy-going and anxiety-provoking for similar reasons. The Wages of Fear came first, and might be the better film because it was more groundbreaking and admirable (considering its age), but Sorcerer, its remake, is perhaps even more downbeat and unapologetic with just how cynical it’s willing to get.

So, consider The Wages of Fear honorably mentioned, as something that pre-dated Sorcerer by about a quarter of a century, and was also about some desperate men trying to transport highly explosive material through dangerous terrain. Sorcerer is here, though, because William Friedkin admirably attempted to make the whole thing even darker and more vicious, and potentially succeeded, since Sorcerer stands a good chance at shocking and unnerving you even if you’ve already watched The Wages of Fear beforehand.

‘The Road’ (2009)

Cormac McCarthy wrote a post-apocalyptic book about surviving the aftermath of some sort of world-ending catastrophe called The Road, so of course the movie based on that book is a pretty darn bleak – and overall desolate – affair. Of all the movies here, this one feels like the biggest stretch, in terms of labeling it an adventure film, but there is a journey undertaken here throughout the whole thing, by a father and his son, even if the destination feels uncertain a good deal of the time.

For what it’s worth, it is a very effective film adaptation of some challenging source material, since both the book and movie versions of The Road manage to be bleak and upsetting in comparable ways. This is the sort of film you should probably watch, but it’s also maybe one of the least rewatchable films ever made. One viewing is more than enough, in other words.

‘Aguirre, the Wrath of God’ (1972)

By all accounts, Fitzcarraldo was the more hellish adventure film to make, for Werner Herzog and everyone else involved, but the film itself is not quite as confronting and despairing as Aguirre, the Wrath of God. And, for what it’s worth, there were still some production problems when it came to making this, but the reason the movie’s here, in the #1 spot, is that it’s pretty much the quintessential “going on a doomed expedition” sort of film.

The journey here involves looking for the lost city of El Dorado, with basically nothing going right early on, and then things going more aggressively wrong, like, later on. It’s a psychologically harrowing and unusually gripping film about madness, and it’s sort of just the cinematic equivalent of a non-stop – and continual – downward spiral. Aguirre, the Wrath of God is also really good, even if it feels designed to make you feel kind of bad.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz threw a light jab at Katy Perry’s boyfriend, Justin Trudeau, suggesting the former Canadian prime minister is essentially punching above his weight by being with her.

The “Dark Horse” singer certainly does not seem to see things that way, as she recently gushed about how Trudeau has changed her perspective on love and life in many ways.

Perry also reflected on how the past year was “tough” for her, but said she chose to remain cool and collected, even though she felt she had every reason to be “angry.”

Texas Senator Ted Cruz gave a surprisingly candid take on international relations this week, weighing in on the steamy romance between Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau.

When cornered by a TMZ reporter, the Republican senator was asked directly about his thoughts on the budding couple. He did not hold back, leaning into a classic football analogy to describe the pairing.

“Well, you know, there’s an old phrase of ‘outkicking your coverage,’ and I think Justin’s managed to do so,” Cruz said with a grin.

However, the senator was quick to make sure his comments did not come across as offensive, immediately adding a self-deprecating caveat: “Although to be fair, I’m in that same camp as well,” referring to his wife, Heidi Cruz.

The interviewer then asked whether he thought the relationship had any effect on U.S.-Canada relations, to which he replied, “objectively, it does affect U.S.-Canada relations,” before walking away.

Trudeau’s Supportive Boyfriend Moment Stirred Debate

Although the couple had been linked for some time, they only made their red-carpet debut on June 8 at the Tribeca Festival in New York City, while attending the premiere of “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris.”

However, their romance has already sparked tension among citizens of both nations, as many took to social media to call out Trudeau for traveling to the U.S. to watch the U.S. play in the ongoing World Cup, even though his home country, Canada, was also playing.

“Sometimes supportive boyfriend duties call. But you know who I’m rooting for to take the Cup,” he wrote in an X post, adding a Canadian flag emoji.

Katy Perry Opens Up About Her New Love

Unlike what Cruz appeared to suggest, the “Roar” singer seems happy and satisfied with the way things are between her and Trudeau, and with the kind of love he has shown her since they got together.

In a recent chat with Justin Tranter on his “UnFamous Podcast,” Perry explained that it has been a transformative journey for her, saying Trudeau has helped change her perspective in no small way.

“I have love in my life now. That’s transformed me,” she said on the Wednesday, June 17, episode of the podcast when asked about how she has changed as a songwriter through the years. “You think when The Beatles say, ‘All you need is love,’ it’s a cliché? Clichés are clichés for a reason … it’s like you don’t know until you have your baby how beautiful that experience is and how it transforms you.”

“I am constantly in transformation, and I have so many placements of Scorpio in my chart that it would be easy for me to go to the dark side,” she added on Wednesday’s episode. “I’m constantly rebirthing, constantly transforming, constantly, you know, phoenix to ashes, then hopefully eagle.”

Perry Says Trudeau Has Become Her ‘Anchor’

The pair seems so enamored with each other that they cannot keep their hands off each other and have been spotted several times packing on the PDA.

During their appearance at the Tribeca Festival for the premiere of her concert film, “Katy Perry: The Lifetimes Tour – Live from Paris,” Perry spoke about how meeting Trudeau has been an “anchor” for her.

“I am very in love. And actually, that show was after I met the love of my life, and so I felt very anchored by that because I’m a little bit like a rainbow kite,” she said during a Q&A session, per PEOPLE. “I fly super high and touch the veil … cosmos … and sometimes I need to be anchored. So, to have that anchor finally makes me feel really whole now.”

Katy Perry Says Boundaries Changed Everything

Their relationship comes after a “tough” year for the “California Gurls” singer, who endured a painful split from her ex-fiancé Orlando Bloom, with whom she shares daughter, Daisy Dove. She also faced heavy criticism after joining an all-female space trip aboard Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin vessel.

Perry told Tranter that instead of falling into “that weird victim triangle,” she decided to sit with her emotions, learn from them, and get feedback.

After coming to terms with the split, she adjusted her “boundaries” before meeting Trudeau.

“You know what it is? It’s really boundaries [of] boundaries within yourself, and then, when to boil it even further down, it’s just self-respect. It’s just love for yourself,” Perry stated. “If you don’t have boundaries, you may need to look at that … or peel yourself out of it. That’s what I’ve been doing is peeling myself out of all the conditioning.”
