Frank Grillo and Tyrese Gibson face off with an evil corporation in a bleak future in the new cyberpunk thriller Kill Code. In the world of the film, the human body is just hardware that can be programmed to do the bidding of the rich and powerful, but even in this dark dystopia, there are those who fight back. Collider is proud to exclusively present the trailer for Kill Code, which will be released digitally on June 24.

In the dystopian future of Kill Code, America has been ravaged by the Second Civil War, and crime is a deadly pandemic; the rainy, neon-lit streets are dangerous to all who walk them. Alpire Industries CEO and scientist Eion Prescott (a silver-tressed Harvey Keitel) has the cure: the ONYX Program. AI-powered watches will be strapped to known criminals, which will inject them with nanobots loaded with a deadly computer virus: the kill code. It will force them to battle other criminals to the death, with the battered survivors earning redemption…and their lives. But Alpire won’t be satisfied until they’ve eliminated free will entirely. One cyber-enhanced Alpire operative (newcomer Franzi Schissler) has discovered the truth, and she’s hooked up with a ragtag resistance movement that might just win humanity’s freedom back.

Who Are the Stars of ‘Kill Code’?

Grillo is an action veteran, with roles in both the MCU, as Hydra operative Brock Rumlow, alias Crossbones, and the new DCU, as government agent Rick Flag Sr.; he will appear as the latter in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow. He also currently appears alongside Sylvester Stallone in the Paramount+ crime drama Tulsa King. Rapper and actor Tyrese Gibson has starred in two separate high-octane action franchises, as a regular in both the live-action Transformers films and as Roman Pearce in the Fast and Furious movies. He recently starred in the action horror comedy Vampires of the Velvet Lounge. Oscar-nominated actor Harvey Keitel’s appearances in the films of Martin Scorsese, including Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, and The Irishman, have established him as one of his generation’s foremost “tough guy” actors. He recently appeared in the actioner Hellfire alongside Stephen Lang.

Kill Code is written and directed by Justin Price (I Heart Robots), who also stars in the film. Formerly titled Hard Matter, it is distributed by Quiver Releasing; it was filmed on location in Mississippi. Kill Code will be released digitally on June 24. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

A new detail has emerged in the breakup of Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO, shedding light on when their marriage officially ended.

As moving trucks were spotted outside the couple’s Tennessee home, court documents revealed the date they reportedly separated.

The development comes months after the pair publicly celebrated one another, making the latest chapter in their relationship all the more surprising for fans who followed their journey.

The timeline surrounding Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO’s split is becoming clearer. According to reports, the country music star filed for divorce in Tennessee on May 18, citing irreconcilable differences.

Court documents reportedly list May 9 as the date the couple separated, meaning the marriage ended just nine days before the filing.

The singer, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, is seeking to formally end his marriage to Alisa DeFord, better known as Bunnie XO, after nearly a decade together.

Sources told TMZ that the decision was mutual and remains a private matter for the family.

Jelly Roll is being represented by Nashville attorney Rose Palermo, who has handled several high-profile divorce cases over the years.

While neither party has publicly commented on the filing, the revelation of the separation date offers a clearer picture of how quickly events unfolded behind the scenes.

Movers Arrive At The Tennessee Property

The latest development came when a moving truck was seen outside the couple’s home near Nashville.

Photographs showed boxes being carried out of the property, fueling speculation about the next phase of the separation.

It remains unclear whether Jelly Roll or Bunnie XO is leaving the residence. Neither has addressed the moving activity publicly, but the images added another layer to a breakup that has attracted significant attention.

The sighting arrived shortly after news of the divorce filing surfaced. For many fans, it marked the first visible sign that major changes were taking place in the couple’s personal lives.

The pair had largely kept details of their relationship private despite their public profiles, making the moving trucks a notable moment in an otherwise closely guarded situation.

Jelly Roll And Bunnie XO’s Last Public Appearance

The last time the couple appeared together publicly was on February 24 during a stop on Bunnie XO’s book tour.

Jelly Roll surprised attendees by showing up and performing for the sold-out crowd.

At the time, there was little indication that the marriage was approaching its final chapter. The appearance reflected the supportive dynamic that had often defined their relationship in the public eye.

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO married in 2016 and frequently spoke about overcoming challenges together.

Their relationship endured difficult periods, and both were open about the effort required to make the marriage work.

Earlier this year, Bunnie reflected on those struggles while speaking with PEOPLE. She explained, “When you are with somebody for a long time, you are going to have to love them at their lowest. And I truly believe that true love is not about so much as accepting things that you shouldn’t, but I do think that everybody deserves a second chance.”

She continued, “Loving somebody at their lowest is one of the most beautiful things you can do, especially if they bloom and they blossom like my husband has.”

Those remarks now carry added weight given the couple’s decision to part ways months later.

Emotional Grammy Tribute Takes On New Meaning

One of the most memorable moments in the couple’s recent history came during the 2026 Grammy Awards.

While accepting the award for Best Contemporary Country Album for “Beautifully Broken,” Jelly Roll delivered an emotional tribute to his wife.

Standing onstage, he credited her with helping transform his life and supporting him through some of his darkest moments.

“I would have never changed my life without you. I’d have ended up dead or in jail. I’d have killed myself if it wasn’t for you and Jesus,” he said during his acceptance speech.

The heartfelt declaration drew praise at the time and became one of the ceremony’s most talked-about moments.

With news of the divorce now public, the speech has taken on a different significance for fans looking back on the couple’s journey.

Jelly Roll Continues Personal Challenges Amid Divorce

As his marriage comes to an end, Jelly Roll is also continuing a highly publicized battle with his health and fitness goals.

Over the last few years, the singer has undergone a remarkable weight-loss transformation. After once weighing more than 500 pounds, he slimmed down to 265 pounds by the time he appeared on the cover of Men’s Health last November.

Recently, however, he admitted that maintaining that progress had become difficult. In a YouTube video, he revealed that he stepped away from his strict routine during the holiday season and struggled to regain momentum after suffering an injury.

Reflecting on that period, Jelly Roll explained per the Daily Mail, “We hit the goal and it was right before the holidays, so I was like, ‘You know what man, I’ve been working hard for the last three years losing this weight, I’m going to enjoy the holidays.’”

He added, “I had a big Thanksgiving meal, I had a big birthday meal, I ate a big Christmas meal. Kinda got off the rails and I broke my collarbone… a few days before Christmas.”

As he navigates both personal and professional changes, the coming months are expected to mark a significant transition for the country star following the end of one of the most important relationships of his life.

Amanda Seyfried is opening up about the heavy backlash she received following her statements about the late Charlie Kirk.

The actress noted that she has had to hire extra security for her safety and that of her family, despite her repeated clarification of her statements. 

Kirk, the popular American political activist and entrepreneur, was assassinated in September 2025 by a rooftop sniper while speaking at a TPUSA event.

Following Kirk’s brutal murder, Seyfried responded to an Instagram post highlighting some of the late political activist’s most controversial statements. Her comment read, “He was hateful,” and it instantly resulted in a torrential rain of backlash from Kirk’s supporters. 

Speaking during a recent interview with GQ Magazine, the actress recalled the situation, noting that it was “crazy.” She revealed that the turn of events surprised her because she believes in voicing her opinion without sounding unkind. 

“A, I’m allowed to f-cking voice my feelings, and B, do it in a way that’s not unkind necessarily,” she said. Notably, the situation spiraled out of control so much that she started worrying about the safety of her family. 

Despite it all, Seyfried still stated that in the heat of the backlash, she still wanted her children to know that they can voice their opinion freely as long as they are “not harmful.” 

“And then all of a sudden I find myself with a f-cking bodyguard at the airport, and I’m like, ‘this is crazy,” she added.  

Amanda Seyfried Previously Cleared The Air On Her Statements

Following the backlash that stemmed from her initial comments about Kirk, Seyfried attempted to clear the air, insisting that while she said Kirk was hateful, she didn’t think his murder was justified.

She shared a post on Instagram urging her followers to “remember the nuance of humanity.” The Golden Globe award winner maintained that she can get angry about racism and misogyny and still “very much agree that Charlie Kirk’s murder was absolutely disturbing and deplorable,” per The Blast.

Seyfried concluded by reiterating that no one, including Kirk, deserved to experience such a gruesome death. She further added that at least everyone could agree that there were too many violent deaths and unnecessary shootings in the country.

Amanda Seyfried Insisted That Her Words Were Based On Reality

Months after clearing the air on her statements, Seyfried still found herself under scrutiny during an interview in December.

She insisted that she didn’t just call Kirk “hateful” out of the blue, but chose her words based on “actual reality.”

According to Seyfried, what she said was based on real quotes and footage from Kirk’s many interviews where he aired his famously controversial opinions, per The Blast.

The Actress Opened Up About The Positive Aspects Of Her OCD Diagnosis 

In addition to speaking about her controversial remarks, Seyfried also gave the public a peek into her life as someone living with OCD. 

Seyfried’s formal OCD diagnosis came when she was 19. While it may have seemed like a debilitating condition at the time, it actually helped the actress make better choices when she was younger.

As reported by The Blast, Seyfried revealed that due to her condition, she purposely avoided drugs, staying out too late, or drinking too much. Instead, she would find herself making social plans and canceling them at the last minute, choosing instead to stay within her comfort zone.

Amanda Seyfried Gave An Inside Look Into The Making Of Her Recent Film

Even as young Seyfried avoided drugs to stay in her comfort zone, she eventually made a name for herself in the film industry, going on to appear in many critically acclaimed projects.

In one of her most recent films, “The Testament of Ann Lee,” the actress was further pushed out of her comfort zone. 

She revealed that the movie “needed to be graphic,” requiring her to be exposed in some scenes. Although some might have presumed she was completely naked, Seyfried noted that she wore a “prosthetic butthole” as an extra precaution, according to The Blast.

Seyfried also opened up about the mental challenge of taking on such a role, saying that it was daunting.

However, she explained her reason for agreeing to challenge herself, noting that her artistic growth is largely driven by fear. As such, doing something that scares her helps her improve her acting skills and become a more creative person overall.

If you spend as much time trolling around Hulu and Tubi as I do, you’re bound to come across a few hidden gems from time to time. This was certainly the case for me when I stumbled across Self Reliance on Hulu last week. The film is a fun, screwball comedy written, directed, and starring New Girl‘s Jake Johnson. Fresh off that viewing experience, my algorithm detected that I was on some kind of Jake Johnson kick, and alerted me to another starring vehicle for the comedian which released two years earlier.

The second film in my unexpected double feature, Ride The Eagle, touts Johnson’s writing and performance, as directed by Australian filmmaker Trent O’Donnell. While I enjoyed both movies tremendously, I was shocked at just how similar they were. In fact, I’m now on the hunt for a third thematically identical Jake Johnson film, just to see if I can round off a perfect trilogy.

An Unassuming Double Feature

Let’s start from the beginning. On its face, the plot of Self Reliance has little in common with the plot of Ride The Eagle. The former centers on Johnson’s Tommy Walcott as he joins a high-stakes reality game show which is live-streamed to the darkest corners of the internet. Essentially, he’s in a snuff film where he’s being hunted by celebrity lookalikes at all times. The catch is, they can only attack him when he’s completely alone, so Tommy makes an effort to be surrounded by friends and strangers at all times.

Ride The Eagle, on the other hand, sees Johnson portraying a burnout percussionist by the name of Leif Reinhold, who is informed right at the start that his estranged mother has passed away. Leif’s mother abandoned him when he was a child, and the two never reconciled, but she has agreed to leave him a cabin in her will, so long as he follows a set of carefully laid instructions. Feeling conflicted about his tenuous relationship to his mom, Leif packs up his adorable, scene-stealing dog, and moves into the cabin as he begins working his way down the eccentric checklist.

Thematic Overlap

Here’s where the similarities begin. Both films feature Jake Johnson working out his issues with his parents. Leif’s strained relationship with his mother leaves him searching for meaning, and wondering if he should be grieving differently. In Self Reliance, a major plot element is the fact that Tommy’s dad abandoned him in his youth. At one point, Tommy’s dad returns to give him some words of advice, which places major strain on Tommy’s relationship to his sister, since she believes he’s suffering from delusions of grandeur.

The next major through line is JJ’s romantic relationships with women. Ride The Eagle features an absolutely electric performance from The Good Place‘s D’arcy Carden, as Leif’s ex girlfriend Audrey. Lief calls Audrey after his mom’s checklist commands him to rekindle his feelings for the “one who got away,” sparking a level of on-the-phone chemistry that made me blush like I was in a three-way call. In Self Reliance, this character is effectively split into two women, as Tommy sparks up a whirlwind romance with Anna Kendrick’s Maddy. Elsewhere in the film, he confronts his ex girlfriend Theresa about their recent break up, in a scene that feels way too real to be entirely fictional.

Back To Back, Or Over Time?

Finally, there’s the revolving cast of characters that fill out the world of each movie. Jake Johnson has a fun-loving, adorable sidekick in both films, who goes missing for a portion of the runtime only to reappear again later with little explanation. Both films feature Jake Johnson calling out to an uncaring onlooker about keeping his loved ones safe from harm, concluding with a threat of violence if his warning goes unheeded. And of course, both films conclude with JJ going after the girl, having unearthed a level of spontaneity and passion that was previously buried by trauma or listlessness.

I’m not making the argument that Jake Johnson is a one-trick pony here, but I do think it’s odd that these two films have so much in common. Personally, I’d give a slight edge to Ride The Eagle, if only for the knock-out performances of JK Simmons and Susan Sarandon. Despite their obvious similarities, I’d still wholeheartedly recommend both films, but maybe they should be viewed a few weeks apart, so they don’t blend together in your brain.

If you’re interested in checking this Jake Johnson double feature out for yourself, you can find Self Reliance on Hulu, and Ride The Eagle on Tubi. These are a great watch for anyone suffering New Girl withdrawals, or anyone who loves a concise, comedic character study set in a bizarre, offbeat world.

Speculation surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding has intensified after an unexpected comment from New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

While details about the couple’s plans have remained closely guarded for months, a brief remark during a public event sent fans and media outlets scrambling for answers.

The moment has also renewed interest in reports of secret preparations already underway behind the scenes.

The latest twist arrived during a press conference held ahead of New York City’s planned ticker-tape parade celebrating the New York Knicks’ NBA championship victory.

While discussing how the city was preparing for a packed calendar of major events, Mamdani appeared to casually reference the wedding that has become one of pop culture’s most talked-about mysteries.

“We are the biggest city in the country, we are used to big events and we are incredibly excited for this one [the World Cup],” Mamdani said per the Daily Mail.

He then added, “We know it coincides with the Knicks finals run. We know it coincides with July 4th, America 250, Taylor Swift’s wedding, all happening at the same time and we are so excited to welcome the world here.”

The comment immediately grabbed attention because neither Swift nor Kelce has publicly confirmed details about their wedding plans.

When reporters later asked whether he had received an invitation, Mamdani responded, “No,” before offering his well wishes and joking that he hoped the couple would have a “lovely wedding.”

He also joked that he would spend the occasion listening to Swift’s song “Only the Young” from Gracie Mansion.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Wedding Rumors Gain Momentum

For months, reports about the couple’s wedding have pointed to several possible locations, with rumors frequently changing as preparations reportedly moved forward.

However, Mamdani’s remarks have added fresh fuel to speculation that Madison Square Garden could ultimately host the ceremony.

Although there has been no official confirmation from Swift or Kelce, fans quickly interpreted the mayor’s comments as a sign that the long-running rumors may be closer to reality than many previously believed.

The possibility of the wedding taking place at one of the world’s most famous venues would certainly match the scale of an event expected to attract enormous public attention.

Since announcing their engagement last summer, the couple has remained largely private about the planning process, making every new detail a major talking point among fans.

Secret Stage Project Raises New Questions

Adding another layer of intrigue, recent reports suggest a large-scale production project connected to the wedding may already be underway.

According to TMZ, Swift has commissioned a custom stage that is currently being constructed at Rock Lititz in Pennsylvania.

The facility is well known in the entertainment industry as a rehearsal complex and stage production center for major touring artists.

The report claims that a “massive stage” is being assembled in a restricted area described as being “under lock and key with security guards patrolling the area.”

The facility also shares a connection to Swift’s touring history. Rock Lititz previously produced the towering video structures featured during her 2018 Reputation Stadium Tour.

While the exact purpose of the stage has not been publicly confirmed, the report has fueled further speculation about the scale of the upcoming celebration.

Taylor Swift Faces Pressure Behind The Scenes

As excitement continues to build, sources claim the wedding planning process has not been entirely stress-free for the global superstar.

According to Star Magazine, Swift has been feeling increasing pressure as preparations intensify and decisions grow more complicated.

“The last thing Taylor wants is for her wedding to turn into a big showbiz circus,” a source told the publication.

The insider added, “She’s trying not to get bogged down by the guest list and all the details, but it’s difficult with so much global attention and the pressure for everything to be perfect.”

With millions of fans eager for updates and widespread media attention surrounding every development, maintaining privacy has reportedly become one of the couple’s biggest priorities.

Despite the challenges, sources indicate that both Swift and Kelce remain excited about the milestone ahead.

Swift And Travis Kelce Prioritize Privacy

Security has reportedly become one of the most important aspects of the wedding preparations.

Given their celebrity status, the couple is said to be investing heavily in measures designed to keep unwanted attention away from the event.

“It’s a shame security has become such a big deal,” the source explained. “But it is what it is, and Travis and Taylor are grateful they can cover the expense.”

Reports also suggest that experienced professionals are overseeing everything from the venue and décor to Swift’s wedding dress.

Even guests are reportedly being asked to play a role in protecting the couple’s privacy.

According to reports, attendees have signed nondisclosure agreements designed to prevent information from leaking before the ceremony.

For now, many details remain hidden from public view. Still, after Mamdani’s surprising comments and reports of secret preparations, interest in the wedding has reached a new level.

Whether his remarks were a simple joke or an accidental reveal, they have added another fascinating chapter to the story of what may become one of the most closely watched celebrity weddings in recent memory.

The Pitt always has a lot going on, which is probably par for the course whem it comes to the emergency room of a busy big city hospital, and that means nobody should be allowed to catch their breath for more than 4 seconds at a time. It’s full of intense pressure and chaos and each season makes you think the doctors involved lose three years off their lives by the time they finish a shift. And yet the thing that keeps us coming back again and again is probably the quieter connections forming between the doctors and staff. But one relationship above all else is a major talking point with the fandom, and Patrick Ball knows just why you love it.

Speaking with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff during an FYC Forces interview for The Pitt, Ball opened up about the special dynamic between his character, Dr. Frank Langdon, and Dr. Melissa “Mel” King, played by Taylor Dearden. While Langdon has distinct — and not altogether warm — relationships with the other veterans in the department, his spark with Mel has stood out to fans in a big way, and Ball thinks that’s really exciting to watch.

“It is an incredible relationship between Langdon and Mel, and it’s pretty awesome to see everybody get so excited about it, and sometimes, I won’t say too excited, but I’ll just say very excited about it. [Laughs] It’s great. Taylor [Dearden]’s amazing, and she kind of has a little bit of that Noah Wyle quality. She’s another one of these people who is just such a technician and just really knows what she wants to do and how she wants to accomplish it.

Ball explained that he began to lean on Dearden for her experience, and her uncanny ability of knowing exactly what to do, where to stand, even just how to project her presence. “I’m pretty different,” Ball explained. “Especially Season 1, where I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I was just like, ‘I’m just going to do the thing my character is doing. I’m just going to get this tube down that pipe and hook it up to that bag.’ How that works on camera, I don’t know, but Taylor knows. Taylor knows. She knows how to find her shot because she’s done this.”

He continued, “So, we found this rhythm that we got in pretty early, where it’s like, ‘Okay, what are you trying to accomplish? How can I figure out how to do that?’ even whenever I felt much of the time that I was sort of over my skis and I didn’t know how to find my shot, I didn’t know how to do any of that. But figuring out how to listen to what the other person was trying to accomplish created a really specific way of paying attention to one another that I think then turned into the way Langdon and Mel paid attention to each other, and it ended up being this really useful thing.”

Why Do Langdon and Mel Have a Spark?

What makes this so interesting is that connection wasn’t forced into the show from outside, but rather the actors figuring it out as they went. As stated before, Ball described Dearden as a precise performer who understood the technical side of shooting in a way that helped him, especially during Season 1, when he was still finding his footing inside the show’s demanding pace, and as a result, that connection from off-camera made its way onto the screen.

“It’s sort of a very similar experience with Langdon and Mel, Langdon being like, ‘Okay, Mel, you see things a little different than everybody else. I like the way you see things. I think you see things correctly in a very cool way, but it is different, and I want to understand it. I want to figure out how to speak that language because I know I’ve got a lot to learn from it,’ which I think that’s true about Langdon and Mel, and I think that’s true about Patrick and Taylor, which has been another one of those great things. Talking about the alchemy of [an] ensemble, that’s something that we just kind of discovered for free.”

The cast of The Pitt includes Noah Wyle (ER) as Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch, Katherine LaNasa (Truth Be Told) as Dana Evans, Supriya Ganesh (Grown-ish) as Dr. Samira Mohan, Fiona Dourif (Chucky) as Dr. Cassie McKay, Isa Briones(Star Trek: Picard) as Dr. Trinity Santos, Gerran Howell (Catch-22) as Dennis Whitaker, Shabana Azeez (Birdeater) as Victoria Javadi, and Jalen Thomas Brooks (Walker) as Dr. Mateo Diaz.

The Pitt streams on HBO Max. Stay tuned for the full interview when it drops tomorrow.

Not every World War II movie has to sell itself on its visceral battle scenes, its explosions, or its impassioned speeches as the battalions face a do-or-die moment. What makes the latest movie in the genre so remarkable is that it finds its tension in the impossible choices behind D-Day, focusing not on the beach landings themselves, but on the momentous predictions made by one man that could have cost the Allied Forces the war at its most vital stage. After becoming one of the year’s strongest underdog movies at the box office, it’s time to feel the Pressure at home.

Collider is delighted to exclusively reveal a new special feature clip from Pressure, just in time for the film’s digital release. Pressure will be available for purchase on all digital platforms beginning today, June 16, arriving just in time for Father’s Day — and we highly recommend this as a movie for all dads everywhere. It may be the definitive Dad movie. Our exclusive clip pulls back the curtain on one of the film’s more remarkable behind-the-scenes connections, explaining how the production coincidentally ended up working with the grandson of James Stagg, the real-life meteorologist whose weather forecast helped determine the timing of the D-Day invasion.

How Good Is ‘Pressure’?

Directed by Anthony Maras, Pressure was very well received by critics and viewers, unsurprisingly given how well it’s made and how good the cast is. The film currently holds an 86% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 95% audience score, which is hugely impressive given how crowded the World War II movie field actually is. What makes the movie stand out so much is how it doesn’t retell D-Day from the battlefield, but rather on the hours before the Normandy landings, when the weather was as vital as the soldiers themselves.

That different approach has also helped Pressure find momentum at the box office. The film recently overtook the domestic haul of Clint Eastwood’s Letters from Iwo Jima, another acclaimed WWII drama. That film earned nearly $70 million worldwide and four Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, but Pressure has now pushed ahead of its $13.7 million domestic total. The cast includes Brendan Fraser (The Whale) as Dwight D. Eisenhower, Andrew Scott (All of Us Strangers) as James Stagg, Kerry Condon (The Banshees of Inisherin) as Kay Summersby, Chris Messina (Air) as Irving P. Krick, Damian Lewis (Band of Brothers) as Bernard Montgomery, and David Haig (Killing Eve) as Trafford Leigh-Mallory. Haig also co-wrote the screenplay with Maras, adapting his own stage play.

Pressure will be available for purchase on all digital platforms beginning June 16. Stay tuned at Collider for more.

Pierce Brosnan brought a perfect mix of charm, charisma and swagger to the iconic character James Bond in the 90s. It was a long six years between 1989’s Licence to Kill, which was Timothy Dalton‘s final bow as 007 and 1995’s GoldenEye, which marked Brosan’s debut. GoldenEye kicked off a Bond for a new generation and finally showed audiences that Brosnan was worth the wait.

It’s hard to believe that the Brosnan-era only consists of four movies, but each is filled with breathtaking action and mind-blowing stunts. These pre-title sequences are comprised of over-the-top moments, suspense, and action scenes that might make previous Bond opening scenes blush. Here is every Pierce Brosnan James Bond pre-title sequence, ranked.

‘Die Another Day’ (2002)

Die Another Day is an often overlooked Bond film, but the opening sequence is a memorable and thrilling scene that keeps you on the edge of your seat. After the cringe-worthy intro of Bond surfing huge waves on the rocky North Korean shore, he hijacks a briefcase of diamonds and prepares to drop them on the North Korean side of the DMZ. Bond hides explosives in the diamonds and narrowly escapes thanks to a well-timed blast and jumps onboard a hovercraft and the fiery chase is on.

The explosive and action-packed scene features Bond getting “saved by the bell,” as he grabs a church bell to avoid falling into a waterfall as the hovercraft flies over the edge. In what is a departure for Bond’s pre-title sequences, it ends with 007 getting captured and tortured as the title credits begin over Madonna‘s dance and techno-heavy theme song. Die Another Day is the fourth and final time Pierce Brosnan portrayed James Bond.

Tomorrow Never Dies features a poignant and exhilarating opening sequence. It opens at a Terrorist Arms Bazaar on the Russian border, where Bond is sent for reconnaissance. Meanwhile, M and a British Admiral watch from England via surveillance. When the Admiral learns that many of the world’s terrorists are there, he deploys a missile to wipe them out.

They soon learn that there is a jet onsite carrying nuclear warheads. Bond springs into action and destroys nearly everything in sight while stealing the jet and narrowly escaping just as the missile hits an enemy’s plane. Once airborne, he faces off against an angry co-pilot, while under attack from a Russian plane. In traditional Bond fashion, he finishes off his copilot, the other missile-loaded jet and calmly radios home to ask where the Admiral would like the nuclear bombs delivered.

‘GoldenEye’ (1995)

The pre-title sequence in GoldenEye has a moment that is a bit over the top, but what an epic way to introduce Pierce Brosnan as Bond. The suspenseful scene features two huge stunts, a huge explosion and an incredible one-liner. Bond makes a grand entrance by bungee jumping off the top of a Russian dam to infiltrate a military base. He sneaks into the building and is hiding above a bathroom. A Russian soldier is doing his business and reading a newspaper. When he moves the paper, Bond appears hanging upside down and says, “Beg your pardon, I forgot to knock.” A classic first quote for the new Bond.

It’s one of the few times we see Bond working with a fellow agent with a “Licence to Kill.” Bond teams up with 006 Alec Tevelyan, played by Sean Bean, who gets captured and is “killed” by a Russian Colonel. Bond sets up a bomb and hides behind a wheeled rack loaded with fuel. He slowly makes his way from one end of the room to the other with about 40 guns pointed at him. Bond escapes in grand fashion via a conveyor belt that leads outside the warehouse. After 007 lays a few Russians to waste, he steals a motorcycle and races towards an unmanned plane racing down the runway. As the plane falls off the runway, located on the edge of a huge cliff, bond shoots off on the motorcycle right after it. 007 free falls until he gets into the plane and pulls it up to altitude, just before crashing into a mountain. He turns around to watch the Russian base explode in an epic blaze of glory.

‘The World is Not Enough’ (1999)

The World is Not Enough won’t be topping many best of Bond lists, but the opening sequence of the film is absolutely breathtaking. The classic scene has incredible moments, including a slick escape in Spain, a huge explosion at MI6 and one of the most exhilarating chase scenes in franchise history. The 15-minute opening sequence feels like a mini-movie and sets up Bond’s next mission.

In Bilbao, Spain, Bond escapes a harrowing encounter with a briefcase full of cash. When he returns to MI6, the cash goes into a vault and has been rigged with an explosive device. After the intense explosion rips a hole through the wall, Bond sees a woman with a sniper rifle and races after her in the Q Boat, an armed experimental speed craft loaded with gadgets. He chases the woman all over the River Thames, including the iconic moment the boat dives underwater while 007 adjusts his tie, and up a hot air balloon in a thrilling scene that comes to an emphatic conclusion with an explosion that sends Bond falling onto London’s 02 Arena, with a thud. The River Thames chase is one of the best Bond sequences and highlights the best pre-title scene from the Brosnan era.

I run hot. Like, fan-on-all-year-round hot. As such, after years of living in Pennsylvania (where July humidity hits like a wet wool blanket), I’ve gotten ruthlessly picky about what I’ll put on my body when it comes to summer clothes.

The good news? I spend most of my days perusing Amazon, and the online mega-retailer has quietly become my go-to for breathable basics that don’t sacrifice style for survival. I’m talking airy linen pieces, flowy silhouettes, moisture-wicking fabrics and shoes that let your feet actually breathe. I love these picks because they’re as stylish as they are comfortable, and they don’t leave me red-faced and miserable by 2 p.m. If you’re the friend who’s always asking to sit by the AC vent, add these picks to your summer wardrobe!

Summer Fashion Finds for Anyone Who Runs Hot All Summer Long

1. Breezy Blouse: This shopper-loved cotton-linen blend top has 3/4 sleeves, meaning airflow without baring your whole arm. The khaki color and button-down fit give a polished look that stays light when the humidity rolls in.

2. Cool Cotton: The chest pocket on this sky blue blouse adds a little structure to the boxy shape. Short sleeves and a cotton-linen weave keep this under $15 pick breezy in 90-degree heat.

3. Easy Effort: A pleated front, fold-over hem and real pockets give these high-waisted linen shorts a tailored look. The black color reads work-appropriate when denim cutoffs won’t fly.

4. Very Versatile: These khaki vacation shorts move with you instead of pinching when you sit on a beach chair. I love an elastic high-waisted wide-leg because it means zero waistband digging after you’ve eaten.

5. Boho Beauty: A V-neck, short sleeves and an A-line skirt make this ivory floral maxi flattering without clinging anywhere. The lightweight fabric lets a breeze through on muggy afternoons.

6. Girly Girl: Floral embroidery and lace detailing dress this beige bohemian maxi up past the usual sundress territory. I’m a sucker for an A-line because the flow keeps it from clinging when humidity spikes.

7. Flowy Formal: A halter neck, backless cut and ruffle-layered skirt put this yellow wedding guest dress in the dressier lane. Maximum skin exposure means maximum airflow at hot summer ceremonies.

8. Summer Sundress: The boho shape is another option that skims the skin during the summer rather than cling, which means it’s a must in your summer wardrobe. I love this navy floral sundress for the spaghetti straps, eyelet lace and sleeveless cut. It’s one of the coolest dresses you can wear in the heat.

9. Versatile Set: Moisture-wicking seamless fabric in a crop and high-waisted short combo, all for just $15? Count me in. This purple workout set handles a sweaty walk without turning into a wet sponge.

10. Biker Babe: Just because it’s a workout set doesn’t mean I solely wear it to work out in. More often than not, you’ll find me in biker shorts with pockets and a racerback tank during the summer. That’s because a built-in bra means one piece less to wrestle with in the heat and humidity.

11. Trusty Trousers: Drawstring elastic waist! True wide leg! Real linen feel! These summery bottoms move air around your legs the way jeans never will on an 85-degree day.

12. Perfect Pants: These black-white palazzo pants read dressy enough for the office without the heat of slacks. The floral print on a flowy, wide-leg silhouette with an elastic waist and pockets makes these a summertime must.

13. Wear-Everywhere Sneaker:  These white mesh sneakers keep feet cool on long walks without that swampy-shoe feeling. A mesh upper with a removable insole means actual airflow, plus the mesh look is totally trending right now! They come in multiple colors and patterns, and at $34, you might be tempted to grab a few pairs.
