Netflix’s New Fantasy Epic Officially Destroys a 3-Year Streaming Record
Some Netflix movies quietly arrive, hang around the Top 10 for a few days, and then vanish into the algorithmic fog. Others show up with enough momentum to make it clear that families are pressing play in huge numbers. This one seems to belong firmly in the second category. It’s bright, emotional, body-swap silly, and apparently exactly the kind of animated adventure viewers were looking for, because its opening numbers are genuinely huge.
Swapped debuted with 15.5 million views, pushing the animated fantasy movie to second place on Netflix’s weekly English-language movie chart. That makes it one of the streamer’s biggest family-film launches of the year, and a very strong start for Skydance Animation’s latest original feature. The movie follows two rival forest creatures who magically switch bodies, forcing them to understand each other’s worlds while trying to stop a larger threat.
The voice cast includes Michael B. Jordan (Black Panther, Creed) as Olly, Juno Temple (Ted Lasso, Fargo) as Ivy, Tracy Morgan (30 Rock, The Longest Yard) as Boogle, Cedric the Entertainer (Barbershop, The Neighborhood) as Caloo, Justina Machado (One Day at a Time, Jane the Virgin) as Calli, Ambika Mod (One Day, This Is Going to Hurt) as Violet, Lolly Adefope (Ghosts, Shrill) as Lily, and Táta Vega (The Color Purple, The Lion King) as Olly’s Grandma.
What’s the Message Behind ‘Swapped’?
The film’s director, Nathan Greno, recently sat down with Collider and gushed about how wonderful Jordan and Temple had been to work with. According to Greno, Temple brought sadness and vulnerability to scenes he thought he already understood, while Jordan’s process changed the way Greno thinks about directing voice performances at all. He told Collider, “And then Mike… it’s Mike. I mean, Michael B. Jordan is, I mean… the way he records, I’ve never experienced anything like that, and it’s kind of changed the way I even direct now, when I’m going forward. It’s, like, his way of working and his way of, like, finding the truth within the lines. Both of them change the course of the movie 100%.”
Temple, speaking to Collider’s Steve Weintraub, added that the message of the movie was an important one for her, and that she hopes kids took a lot from it. “I hope that they feel the absolute importance and need for friendship we’ll have throughout life. It doesn’t matter how old you are, where you come from, what you do, your friends are always going to be integral to making your life better, bigger, and more beautiful,” said Temple.
Swapped is streaming now on Netflix.

Goldie Hawn Reacts to Meryl Streep’s Claim They Had ‘Beef’
Goldie Hawn addressed her Death Becomes Her costar Meryl Streep‘s revelation that they had “beef” on set due to Hawn’s frequent tardiness.
“I think I’m 15 minutes late to everything. … I mean, honestly, it’s unbelievable,” Hawn, 80, admitted to Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday, May 6. “But, I think we got through that. I mean, we’ve been such great friends for so long. But it is our joke.”
Streep, 76, recently looked back on the experience of filming director Robert Zemeckis’ 1992 cult classic, where she and Hawn played aging Hollywood actresses who take a magic potion to restore their youth. The three-time Oscar winner admitted to Vanity Fair that she and Hawn had two very different approaches to working on Death Becomes Her.
“Goldie, she was always late to set,” Streep recalled on Thursday, April 30. “But she was so adorable. And I’m always on time, you know, and annoying. But she’s late, and she had a red convertible, I remember, and she’d drive herself to set. So that was probably the problem.”
The Devil Wears Prada 2 star went on, “She’d drive herself to set. She had her hair all … ‘Oh, gosh, sorry!’ And everybody thought, ‘Oh, she’s so cute.’ Yeah. So I had a beef with her.”
Streep eventually clarified that she and Hawn got past any “beef” long ago and now both look back fondly on Death Becomes Her.
“I loved her. I love her,” Streep said of Hawn. “She’s one of my buddies, and over the years, we’ve had some laughs about that movie because people love it. I thought it was like a documentary on Beverly Hills.”
Speaking to ET on Wednesday, Hawn jokingly flipped the script by questioning whether Streep was simply “too early” on set.
“So, she said I was too late on the set. Maybe she’s too early, I don’t know,” she pointed out on Wednesday. “You know, sometimes when you’re too early, you’re still waiting for somebody and you think, ‘Oh god, where the hell is she?’”

Death Becomes Her was a financial success at the time but sharply divided critics. Over the years, the dark comedy has developed a cult following and even spawned a Broadway musical adaptation in 2024 that received 10 Tony Award nominations.
Zemeckis also pioneered computer-generated visual effects for Death Becomes Her’s gruesome scenes showcasing the grim physical side effects of Hollywood starlets Madeline Ashton (Streep) and Helen Sharp’s (Hawn) anti-aging potion. The movie won a Best Visual Effects Award at the 65th Academy Awards in March 1993.
Death Becomes Her continues to have a dedicated fanbase more than 30 years after its release. Drew Barrymore revealed on her daytime talk show in August 2025 that she was interested in remaking the 1992 hit with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. (Barrymore and Aniston worked together on He’s Just Not That Into You and have both played Sandler’s love interests on the big screen.)
“We’ve batted around some ideas,” Barrymore revealed on The Drew Barrymore Show. “As a joke, we say we’ll make the Three’s Company movie, but I’m really bullish on Death Becomes Her, a remake of that.”
She added, “Adam knows that I really want to work with him and Jennifer Aniston together. They both know that.”

Rudy Giuliani Is Out of ICU After Being Read Last Rites
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been released from the ICU three days after being read his last rites by a priest.
“Mayor Rudy Giuliani is out of the ICU and will spend some time recovering before leaving the hospital,” his spokesperson, Ted Goodman, tweeted on Wednesday, May 6. “The mayor and his family appreciate the outpouring of love and prayers sent his way.”
Goodman offered thanks to the politician and disbarred lawyer’s supporters for “the outpouring of love and prayers sent his way.”
“Mayor Giuliani — the man who took down the Mafia, saved New York City, and ran toward the towers on September 11th — is the same fighter he’s always been, and he’s winning this fight,” he went on. “The power of prayer is working. The mayor feels it. We feel it. Please keep them coming for America’s Mayor, Rudy Giuliani.”
Goodman previously confirmed on Sunday, May 3, that Giuliani, 81, was hospitalized in critical condition in Florida for pneumonia.
“Mayor Giuliani is a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength, and he’s fighting with that same level of strength as we speak,” the rep told the New York Times at the time.
The former mayor’s doctor, Dr. Maria Ryan, subsequently revealed to Fox News on Monday, May 4, that Giuliani’s health declined so rapidly that he’d been visited by a priest to deliver last rites.
“He’s a fighter — the way he was yesterday in such a critical condition, he did have a priest come anoint him,” Dr Ryan told the outlet. “And all the prayers from around — it’s like a miracle. This guy’s got [nine] lives … today he’s doing much better.”
That same day, Goodman released a statement explaining that Giuliani’s pneumonia was exacerbated by long-term health complications related to his on-the-ground response to the September 11, 2011, terror attacks. (Giuliani traveled throughout New York City on that day to assess the scale of the collapse of the World Trade Center towers. He served as mayor of New York City from January 1994 to December 2001.)

“Mayor Rudy Giuliani is recovering from pneumonia,” Goodman said. “On September 11th, Mayor Giuliani ran toward the towers to help those in need, which later led to a diagnosis of restrictive airway disease.”
The spokesperson added, “This condition adds complications to any respiratory illness, and the virus quickly overwhelmed his body, requiring mechanical ventilation to maintain adequate oxygen and stabilize his condition.”
Giuliani was previously hospitalized in August 2025 due to injuries from a car accident. Giuliani’s security guard, Michael Ragusa, told BBC News at the time that the politician’s vehicle was struck from behind in New Hampshire shortly after he’d assisted an alleged victim of domestic violence.
“On the evening of August 30, 2025, in New Hampshire, Mayor Giuliani was involved in a motor vehicle accident,” an official statement read. “Prior to the incident, he was flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident. Mayor Giuliani immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911. He remained on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety.”
The statement went on, “Following this, while traveling on the highway, Mayor Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from behind at high speed. He was transported to a nearby trauma center, where he was diagnosed with a fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg.”
Two weeks later, Giuliani was photographed wearing a full chest brace and sitting in a wheelchair while attending a 9/11 memorial event at One World Trade Center in New York City.

Creatine Benefits, Brain Health and Dosing for Women
Creatine sales jumped 120 percent in the 52 weeks ending March 2023, according to SPINS data , and the new wave of customers driving that growth isn’t the male gym crowd that built the supplement’s reputation. It’s women, many of them in their 30s, 40s and 50s, paying attention to research suggesting creatine may do more than support strength training.
It may also support brain function, sleep and the muscle and bone changes that come with perimenopause and menopause. Halle Berry has publicly credited it for helping her manage menopausal brain fog, and the science behind that claim has been building for years.
What Creatine Actually Is and Why Women May Respond Differently
Creatine is a naturally occurring compound the body produces in the liver, kidneys and pancreas. About 95 percent is stored in skeletal muscle and 5 percent in the brain and heart, according to a May 2025 review in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition. It’s not a steroid or a hormone. Both men and women make it naturally and consume it through food, primarily red meat and fish.
Women tend to start from a lower baseline. The JISSN review reports approximately 20-30 percent lower dietary creatine intake in women than men, along with lower natural synthesis rates, which may make women especially responsive to supplementation. Post-menopausal women also face declining estrogen, accelerated muscle loss, reduced bone density and changes in brain function, all areas where creatine has shown measurable benefit.
Does Creatine Make Women Bulky? The Myth vs. The Science
This is the question that keeps many women from trying it. Women have approximately 15 to 20 times lower testosterone than men, making significant muscle bulk from creatine physiologically implausible.
What creatine actually does is support ATP energy production during high-intensity effort, allowing harder training sessions that over time support lean muscle development. Initial water retention occurs inside muscle cells as part of the mechanism that stimulates muscle protein synthesis. It’s not cosmetic bloating.
What New Research Shows About Creatine, Perimenopause and Menopause
TheCONCRET-MENOPA randomized controlled trial, published in the Journal of the American Nutrition Association, was the first double-blind RCT to specifically test creatine in perimenopausal and menopausal women. Across 36 participants over eight weeks, a medium dose of 1,500mg per day of creatine HCl improved reaction time by 6.6 percent versus 1.2 percent with placebo and increased frontal brain creatine levels by 16.4 percent.
A separate July 2025 study from St. Olaf College of 15 peri and postmenopausal women found significant increases in lower body strength and positive improvements in sleep quality in perimenopausal women, a benefit not typically associated with the supplement.
Why Creatine and Brain Health Are Now Being Talked About Together
As estrogen declines during perimenopause, creatine stores in the brain can fall precisely when the brain needs them most.Research reported by ScienceDaily in May 2026 on new Taylor & Francis findings noted creatine may support memory, mood and cognitive speed, especially in people with lower baseline levels. The CONCRET-MENOPA trial’s 16.4 percent increase in frontal brain creatine is the first human evidence of its kind in menopausal women.
It’s the same mechanism Halle Berry has pointed to, telling her podcast audience she thought she’d “never” take creatine, associating it with bulking, but now takes it daily and credits it for helping her think more clearly during menopause.
Is Creatine Safe for Women to Take Long Term?
A comprehensive 2025 analysis of 685 clinical trials found no significant differences in side effect rates between placebo and creatine groups, per the JISSN review. The CONCRET-MENOPA trial reported no severe adverse effects in perimenopausal and menopausal women. Readers with kidney concerns or who take other medications should check with a clinician before starting.
How Much Creatine Women Should Actually Take
The standard recommendation is 3 to 5 grams per day of creatine monohydrate, with no loading phase required. Creatine HCl shows specific promise for cognitive benefits in menopausal women at lower doses of 750 to 1,500mg per day per the CONCRET-MENOPA results. Timing matters less than consistency, according to the JISSN review. Daily intake over weeks and months is when the muscle, strength and cognitive effects tend to show up.

Paramount+’s ‘Landman’ Season 3 Gets Promising New Update From Returning Director
Taylor Sheridan’s TV empire does not seem especially interested in slowing down, which is probably bad news for anyone trying to keep up with the man’s production calendar. One of his biggest Paramount+ hits has already been renewed, and now it sounds like the next season is moving quickly behind the scenes. That’s a relief for fans who were worried they might be waiting a long time to get back to the oil fields, family chaos, corporate knives, and Billy Bob Thornton looking like the only adult in a burning building.
Landman Season 3 has received a promising update from returning director Stephen Kay, who confirmed that the team is already editing the new episodes while filming is underway. Speaking at The Hollywood Reporter’s Directors in Focus event, Kay said, “We’re cutting while we’re shooting and so it’ll hopefully be out soon.” That doesn’t give fans an exact release date, but it does suggest that the Paramount+ drama is being built with the same speedy turnaround that has powered several of Sheridan’s recent shows.
The first two seasons also established a very useful rhythm. Season 1 premiered in November 2024, Season 2 arrived in November 2025, and Season 3 is already in motion. If the show can maintain that pattern, a late 2026 return would make a lot of sense, though Paramount+ has not officially announced a premiere date yet. No need to start engraving the oil rig calendar just yet.
There’s plenty more drama to come, though. With Tommy’s firing from M-TEX at the tail end of Season 2, Cooper’s narrow escape from the law, Angela and Ainsley… existing, there’s so many more things to go wrong down in Midland, Texas.
Who Stars in ‘Landman’?
The cast includes Billy Bob Thornton (Sling Blade, Bad Santa) as Tommy Norris, Ali Larter (Final Destination, Legally Blonde) as Angela Norris, Jacob Lofland (Mud, Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials) as Cooper Norris, Michelle Randolph (1923, A Snow White Christmas) as Ainsley Norris, Paulina Chávez (The Expanding Universe of Ashley Garcia, Fate: The Winx Saga) as Ariana, Kayla Wallace (When Calls the Heart, Heatwave) as Rebecca Falcone, James Jordan (Yellowstone, Wind River) as Dale Bradley, Demi Moore (Ghost, The Substance) as Cami Miller, Andy Garcia (Ocean’s Eleven, The Godfather Part III) as Galino, and Sam Elliott (A Star Is Born, Tombstone) as T.L.

Fans Tease Kim Kardashian Over Her Met Gala Treat
Kim Kardashian brought legs and a seriously cinched waist to the 2026 Met Gala, but before she stepped onto the famous carpet, the reality star gave fans something else to talk about.
Ahead of the event, Kardashian shared an Instagram Story showing what appeared to be a chocolate-and-vanilla soft-serve cone covered in rainbow sprinkles, captioning the sweet snap, “Met Prep.”
The post had fans predicting that the reality TV star might pull a Lady Gaga-style stunt in “a dress made of ice cream.” Some also used the moment to joke about why Kardashian never seems to miss the Met.
On the day of the Met Gala, Kardashian gave fans a sweet glimpse into her pre-carpet routine by posting an ice cream cone on her Instagram Story.
Although it is unclear which creamery she visited, the business mogul opted for what looked like a chocolate-and-vanilla soft-serve twist served in a waffle cone. The frozen treat was also heavily coated in rainbow sprinkles, as seen in a photo published by Cinema Blend.
The moment stood out even more because of Kardashian’s past Met Gala preparation. A few years ago, she revealed that she had lost 16 pounds to fit into an iconic Marilyn Monroe dress.
Fans React To Kim K’s Sweet Pre-Met Tease

Kardashian’s ice cream-themed IG Story gave social media plenty to chew on, both in the lead-up to and in the aftermath of the Met Gala. Ahead of the event, some wondered whether the treat was a hint at what she planned to wear.
“So, she’s showing up dressed as a ice cream cone with sprinkles?” one user pondered on X, with another one saying, “She’s gonna pull a Lady Gaga & arrive in a dress made of ice cream.”
Of course, not everyone was amused by Kardashian’s continued presence at fashion’s biggest night. One critic asked, “Can she skip the Met Gala at least for ONE year? Why do we have to see her every year?”
Kim Kardashian Put Her Legs On Display At The Met
Kardashian created her Met Gala outfit in collaboration with creative director Nadia Lee Cohen, British artist Allen Jones, and designer duo Whitaker/Malem.
The “KUWTK” star stepped out in a striking, form-fitting tangerine look that resembled armor fit for a warrior heading into battle. The outfit featured a high neckline, a corset-like structure across the torso, and a sculptural cone shape around the bust.
Attached to the look was a long, semi-sheer skirt panel that opened at the front, putting Kardashian’s legs on full display. She paired the ensemble with nude high heels, seemingly allowing the outfit to remain the center of attention.
Her hair was styled in long, voluminous blonde waves, giving the already dramatic look a goddess-like finish.
Kim Opened Up About Her Design Team

In a chat with Vogue, Kardashian gave fans an inside look at how her Met Gala outfit came together, beginning with her decision to reach out to Cohen to take the lead.
The creative director then recommended Allen Jones for the dress design, an idea Kardashian quickly embraced, as she had already been familiar with his work.
“I have seen his work referenced so many times by people in fashion, and I’ve always been a big admirer of his work,” the businesswoman said.
She also explained her belief that Jones could help create something truly unforgettable, possibly even rivaling her 11 previous Met Gala looks.
“Allen Jones would be iconic… Sexy. Classic. Cool. Innovative,” Kardashian added.
How Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala Look Was Designed

To design the dress, Jones repurposed a cast created for an unreleased film from the mid-1990s. The decision reportedly came from Kardashian’s desire to wear something original, rather than have her own body cast for the look.
From there, completing the outfit took a whopping three weeks. The process included the difficult task of sourcing fiberglass and painting the sculptural piece at an auto body shop.
For the leather skirt, Kardashian relied on the craftsmanship of artisans Patrick Whitaker and Keir Malem.
There was also one final twist in the creation process, and it came from Kardashian herself. The outfit was initially designed as a full-length body cast, but she ultimately chose to have it shortened into a bodysuit to allow for more movement.

Amanda Bynes Turns Heads With Bold New Eyebrows
Amanda Bynes is making headlines once again after debuting a bold new appearance during a rare outing in Los Angeles. The former child star stepped out Tuesday, May 5, showing off vivid purple eyebrows, pairing the dramatic beauty change with freshly lightened blonde hair and a casual outfit that included faded jeans and a colorful graphic tee. The eyebrow transformation immediately drew attention, marking one of her most daring style changes in recent months.

Bynes wasn’t alone during the outing. She was joined by boyfriend Zachary Khan, and the pair shared a rare public PDA moment as they held hands while crossing the street after lunch. The couple reportedly began dating in late 2025.
In addition to the eyebrow makeover, fans also couldn’t help but notice Bynes’ visibly slimmer appearance. The actress has been open about her Ozempic journey over the past year, previously telling followers she was excited about her weight-loss progress and her goals moving forward. At one point, Bynes revealed she had lost 28 pounds after beginning Ozempic injections, later explaining she wanted to continue slimming down so she could feel “skinny and cute.”
See the photos of Bynes’ latest appearance here.
Bynes Has Been Candid About Cosmetic Procedures

Bynes has also spoken openly in recent years about the cosmetic procedures she’s undergone. In 2023, she confirmed she had undergone blepharoplasty surgery to remove excess skin from her eyelids, later saying the procedure significantly boosted her confidence.
She has also revealed getting lip fillers, continuing her ongoing transformation, and experimenting with her appearance. Now, with purple brows and platinum blonde hair, Bynes appears to be embracing yet another reinvention.
Amanda Bynes’ Nickelodeon Rise

Amanda Bynes first rose to fame through her work on Nickelodeon, starring on hit shows like “All That” before landing her own breakout series, “The Amanda Show.” Both programs were created and produced by Dan Schneider, one of Nickelodeon’s most powerful figures throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s. Schneider was behind a string of massively successful children’s shows, including “Drake & Josh,” “iCarly,” “Zoey 101,” and “Victorious,” helping shape an entire era of teen television.

Schneider was behind a string of massively successful children’s shows, including “Drake & Josh,” “iCarly,” “Zoey 101,” and “Victorious,” helping shape an entire era of teen television.
In recent years, however, Schneider has faced intense scrutiny following allegations regarding toxic workplace behavior during his time at Nickelodeon. Former child stars and employees accused him of verbal abuse, inappropriate conduct, and creating uncomfortable environments behind the scenes, claims that reignited public debate following the release of the “Quiet on Set” docuseries. Schneider has denied sexually abusing children.
Bynes’ Public Struggles Played Out In Headlines

After becoming a household name through “All That” and “The Amanda Show,” Bynes experienced a turbulent public downfall in the early 2010s that included legal troubles and erratic behavior.
In April 2012, the actress was arrested on suspicion of DUI after reportedly attempting to pass a police vehicle in West Hollywood and side-swiping the car with her BMW around 3 a.m. According to reports at the time, Bynes allegedly refused both a Breathalyzer and a drug test at the scene before being taken into custody. She was later released from jail after posting $5,000 bail.
Just two months later, Bynes was formally charged with driving under the influence related to the arrest, but instead of staying silent, she took her frustration straight to social media. “I don’t drink,” she famously tweeted at then-President Barack Obama. “Please fire the cop who arrested me. I also don’t hit and run. The end.”
Amanda Bynes Faced Additional Legal Trouble Months Later

Later that same year, Amanda Bynes found herself dealing with even more legal controversy following another traffic incident in Los Angeles.
In August 2012, Bynes allegedly rear-ended another driver on Ventura Boulevard, reportedly causing around $800 in damage. According to the other driver’s account to police, the actress allegedly left the scene without exchanging insurance information or waiting for officers to arrive.
Bynes, however, disputed that version of events, later claiming both parties had agreed the damage was minimal. She was ultimately charged with hit-and-run.
