With The Terminal List finally returning for a second season, fans are excited to see Jack Carr‘s sequel novel, True Believer, adapted on Prime Video. It’s been a long time coming after the first season of the Chris Pratt-led series aired back in 2022, and folks have been champing at the bit to see how James Reece’s journey might continue after completing his list of targets. But with Season 2, The Terminal List is expanding the roster beyond just returning cast members — which will no doubt bring in more viewers curious about the stars involved.

‘The Terminal List’ Is Stacking Its Cast Going into Season 2

One of the most exciting things about The Terminal List‘s new season is that plenty of new names and familiar faces are attached to the project, including some pretty well-known stars. Reprising their parts from The Terminal List: Dark Wolf prequel series, Tom Hopper is slated to return as Reece and Ben Edwards’ (Taylor Kitsch) SEAL brother Raife Hastings, alongside Dar Salim as Iraqi special forces operator Mohammed “Mo” Farooq and Luke Hemsworth as sketchy CIA operator Jules Landry. All three characters will intersect with James Reece again, further tying the world to the events of Dark Wolf — a show that will hopefully continue after that cliffhanger cameo — which took place seven years before the first season of the flagship series.

Among those being inducted into The Terminal List‘s cast are Diego Luna, who is set to join Season 2 as CIA operative Freddy Strain, Martin Sensmeier as Sergeant Major Otatkay, and Costa Ronin as former Russian operator Vasili Adrenov. While we don’t know the full extent of all of these roles at this point in the game — well, unless you’ve read True Believer, that is, which is said to be one of Amazon’s biggest television undertakings — there’s no doubt that these names will make a splash in the new season.

Also joining The Terminal List, in currently undisclosed roles, are stars like Olga Kurylenko (Quantum of Solace, Black Widow), Yul Vazquez (War of the Worlds, Severance), and Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy, Bosch). If anything, The Terminal List and Dark Wolf made enough waves for Prime Video to build out the cast further — and although we know very little about some of these roles, we do know that, somehow, they’ll all connect to Reece’s next mission, which centers on personal redemption.

What Can Fans Expect From ‘The Terminal List’ Season 2?

As for what to expect from The Terminal List Season 2, we’ll direct you to the official trailer first and foremost. Without spoiling any major plot points from the book, James Reece is haunted by his actions in Season 1 — especially by the ghost of Ben Edwards, whose betrayal marked a crippling moment for the show’s lead. After Season 1’s finale, viewers are only left to assume that Reece killed his former SEAL brother after discovering Ben’s role in the deaths of his wife and daughter. When a terrorist cell demands specific attention, Freddy Strain (Luna) brings Reece back into the fold with the promise of a presidential pardon for his actions.

If there’s anything to learn from last season’s divergence from the novel, fans can rest assured that the Prime Video adaptation will stay faithful to Carr’s text while still taking some creative liberties along the way. Even if you’ve read True Believer, the show will likely be different enough to build suspense — and there’s still no telling how some of these new cast members will factor into the finished product. With The Terminal List set to return next month, there’s no better time to revisit the first season and its prequel to gear up for more.

The Terminal List Season 2 premieres October 21 on Prime Video.

Zelda Williams is once again speaking out against AI videos featuring her late father, comedian Robin Williams, who passed away in 2014. The actress and filmmaker has criticized the use of artificial intelligence in the past, and she is making her feeling clear again. Her latest response comes from a deeply personal place, as she continues to push back against deep fakes of her father.

Zelda Williams Slams ‘Terrible’ AI Video Of Robin Williams

Robin Williams’ daughter, Zelda, took to social media after seeing a fake video of his father discussing conspiracy theories. The clip was falsely presented as a “private video” or “rare private footage” of the late actor that had supposedly been leaked.

Zelda clapped back, saying it was obviously AI-generated due to the “robotic and terrible” voice. The filmmaker addressed the creator of the video, writing, “leave him out of your delusional bullsh-t and let him rest. If you cannot make your case without making a dead man make it more convincing for you, then tell me: who’s the one manipulating the public thru media now?”

Zelda said she hates having to debunk AI slop but strongly feels the need to protect her father’s legacy. “I love him, so I will,” she wrote.

The Actress Reiterates Her Stance On AI

On an Instagram Stories post, Zelda underscored her position on artificial intelligence, writing she “abhor[s] AI in every form.”

She also raised concerns about the ethical side of replicating people using AI, writing, “if you use these ‘tools’ to recreate real people and make them do whatever you’d like, you are very much removing their consent from the equation.”

Speaking about recreations of people without their consent, Zelda noted that deep fake creators are “denying another person of their autonomy” for the sake of spectacle.

Zelda Williams First Spoke Against AI In 2023

In 2023, SAG-AFTRA went on strike over a labor dispute, including protections against artificial intelligence.

Amid the controversy, Zelda voiced her concerns on Instagram Stories, saying she was “not an impartial voice” in the fight against AI.

“I’ve witnessed for YEARS how many people want to train these models to create/recreate actors who cannot consent, like Dad,” she wrote. The filmmaker added that her concerns extend beyond her personal feelings about the matter.

William’s died by suicide on August 11, 2014 at 63 years old. The comedian struggled with health issues, which was later diagnosed as Lewy body dementia. His final Instagram post was a black-and-white photo with a young Zelda, shared on July 31, 2014, to celebrate his daughter’s birthday.

In August, Zelda, along with her siblings Zak and Cody, announced that they would be reviving their father’s Instagram account to share posts focusing on Robin’s comedic talent and humor.

“As technology evolves, we want this to be a safe, trusted place where the stories, photos, videos, and memories shared reflect his legacy with authenticity, warmth, and care,” the siblings wrote.

So far, the account has shared two new posts. The first one was a 1979 portrait of the comedian for TIME, and the second, a short clip of Williams as his alien character Mork from the sitcom “Mork & Mindy.”

The NO FAKES Act Bill Aims To Protect Against AI-Generated Replicas

The NO FAKES (Nurture Originals, Foster Art, Keep Entertainment Safe) Act is a proposed legislation designed to protect the voice of individuals, both private citizens and public figures, from unauthorized replicas generated by AI.

The proposed bill also covers post-mortem protection, allowing heirs or executors of estates to represent a deceased person.

Despite its purpose of protecting individuals against unauthorized use of their image and likeness, some have raised concerns that the proposed law could also restrict commentary and satire.

As we await a new reboot of the James Bond franchise, now is the perfect time to revisit the last reboot — and the ingenious way it tied itself to the larger history of the film series. Three months from now marks the 20th anniversary of Casino Royale, which debuted in theaters on November 14, 2006. The franchise reset starred Daniel Craig, portraying the new big-screen iteration of Bond, based on Ian Fleming’s original novel of the same name. Craig truly kickstarted his new era of the franchise with a bang. However, no Bond movie and performance is truly complete until the actor utters the iconic line first spoken by Sean Connery in Dr. No, “Bond. James Bond.” Craig’s iteration redefined the entire franchise.

‘Casino Royale’ Took James Bond Back to His Roots

Casino Royale marked a much-needed reset for the 007 movie franchise. Pierce Brosnan did well as the MI6 agent with a license to kill, but towards the end of his run, his movies were descending into opulent, laughable self-parody, as demonstrated in his final entry, Die Another Day. Casino Royale, by adapting Fleming’s original novel, brought Bond back to his literary roots, taking a much more grounded spy-thriller approach. Brosnan’s movies had taken steps towards transforming Bond into something akin to a comic book superhero, with villains and plots to match, and that’s just not how Fleming originally conceived the character. Craig was the perfect actor to portray a more realistic version of 007.

Bond is best described by his original creator, Fleming, as “an anonymous, blunt instrument wielded by a government department.” In short, he’s a government-sanctioned assassin, with a license to kill. The blunt instrument term is even evoked by Bond’s superior, M (Judi Dench), during Casino Royale after Bond invades a foreign embassy and kills a wanted operative whom MI-6 was pursuing. Rather than a superhero fighting for queen and country, Craig’s Bond acknowledges that he might be working at the behest of the British government, but he’s still a killer operating in a morally gray world. Casino Royale, and Craig’s stint as the character, explore what a job as a government-sanctioned hitman does to a man’s soul, offering a strong level of depth and introspection into the character’s psyche.

‘Casino Royale’ Explores Bond’s Origins

Casino Royale depicts James Bond at the start of his journey as a 00 agent, with the exceptional black and white prologue showing Bond completing his mission to receive his license to kill. Moviegoers had never previously seen this side of Bond depicted onscreen; Bond’s license to kill and 00 agent status had been baked into the character going back to the 1960s. However, seeing his mission that led to the license was a monumental cinematic moment.

Elsewhere, Casino Royale plays with audience expectations of the Bond legend, except through the lens of Craig’s version of the character becoming the icon that legions of fans have come to know and love. This is shown through scenes such as when Bond dons his famous tuxedo for the first time. Also, when a waiter asks Bond if he wants his drink of choice “shaken or stirred,” Bond then bluntly answers, “Does it look like I give a damn?!” However, the coup de grâce of Craig’s performance is the movie’s ending, when he finally delivers his first utterance of the famous line, “The name’s Bond. James Bond.”

The moment occurs after Bond receives a parting message from his late girlfriend, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), who gave Bond the phone number of Mr. White (Jesper Christensen), a high-ranking member of the international criminal organization QUANTUM. The movie ends with Bond discovering White’s location and shooting him in the foot before properly introducing himself as Bond for the first time, all while the classic Bond score starts blaring. The ending shows that Bond returned to MI-6, rescinding his earlier resignation, marking a new era for the character.

Daniel Craig Completes His Transformation into James Bond

After his ordeal with Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen) in Casino Royale, Bond attempts to quit the spy life and start over with Vesper. That comes to an end when it’s revealed that Vesper was a double agent, culminating in her death. Vesper’s betrayal and her subsequent death instead harden Bond, pushing him back toward the life of a spy and resuming his occupation as MI-6’s blunt instrument. His encounter with Vesper also shows why he struggles to settle down and form a long-term romantic relationship, as her betrayal and his career make it difficult for him to trust others.

Although Craig delivers the iconic line at the end of the movie, which concludes Casino Royale in an exciting, cool, and energetic moment, it’s also somewhat bittersweet. James Bond’s transformation into the MI-6 superspy is complete, yet it comes at the cost of knowing Bond can never truly know peace or happiness. However, the ending marks a triumphant moment for the audience, since it depicts that Daniel Craig has fully become James Bond, and a cinematic icon is reborn. With the ending, Craig’s journey as the legendary character finally begins, as James Bond’s origin story is now complete.

Jennifer Eckhart, a former associate producer for Fox Business, has died. She was 36.

Eckhart was found dead in her home in Martin County, Florida, on Saturday, September 19, according to a Martin County Sheriff’s Office incident report obtained by People.

Christine Christofek, a spokesperson for the sheriff’s office, said in a statement, “This death has been ruled a suicide.”

In a press briefing, Martin County Sheriff John Budensiek stated that Eckhart had been “‘Baker Act’ed” six times before her death. According to the Florida Department of Children and Families, the Baker Act “focuses on crisis services for individuals with mental illness, much like an emergency department is for individuals experiencing a medical emergency.”

Us reached out to the Martin County Sheriff’s Office for comment.

TMZ was first to report the news.

Eckhart, who was born and raised in Miami, earned a bachelor’s degree in telecommunications news from the University of Florida’s College of Journalism and Communications. She began her media career in the Sunshine State, working as an entertainment anchor for WUFT-TV, a PBS affiliate in Gainesville. She also worked as a correspondent for ESPN Radio, where she hosted the 2011 ESPN College Football Awards.

Eckhart worked at Fox Business from 2013 to 2020, producing programs such as The Claman Countdown and interviews with prominent figures in the business world.

Around the time of her departure from the company, Eckhart made headlines when she filed a lawsuit against former Fox News anchor Ed Henry and Fox News. She claimed that Henry, 55, sexually assaulted and raped her and used his position within the company to manipulate and control her. The lawsuit also alleged that Fox News promoted Henry even after receiving complaints of sexually inappropriate behavior.

“I think it’s safe to say that I was paralyzed by fear when I was working there [at Fox News Network]. I don’t know how you could continue to cultivate and foster an environment that rewards sexual predators consistently year after year,” Eckhart said in a 2020 interview on CBS This Morning.

She added, “I felt that [Henry] had the power to derail me, to destroy me, to ruin my career. And, I just, I didn’t have a voice until now.”

Henry denied all allegations. He was fired from Fox News in July 2020, with the network noting that it “strictly prohibits sexual harassment, misconduct and discrimination.” Fox News was dismissed from the case in March 2025. Three months later, Eckhart and Henry reached a confidential settlement before the case went to trial.

After leaving Fox, Eckhart launched the “Reinvented” podcast, dubbing the venture her “second act.” The podcast series focused on “inspirational tales of reinvention from some of the world’s most sought-after names in business, sports and entertainment who have overcome incredible obstacles and adversity on their journey to success,” according to Eckhart’s website.

The latest episode was released in March and featured former Florida State Senator and Palm Beach County prosecutor Dave Aronberg.

A woman was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the 2024 fatal shooting of a fast food employee that allegedly occurred over a drive-thru order.

Monica Williams pleaded guilty on Friday, September 18, to second-degree murder in the death of Anitra West, who was killed outside of a Church’s Texas Chicken in Memphis in July 2024, according to the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office.

Following Williams’ guilty plea, she was handed her 30-year sentence, the district attorney’s office said in a Monday, September 21, news release. In addition to second-degree murder, Williams pleaded guilty to being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.

Williams was accused of killing West outside of the Church’s Chicken located on Park Avenue in Memphis’ Orange Mound neighborhood on July 8, 2024.

A Missouri woman was sentenced to nearly two decades in federal prison after she pleaded guilty to a successful murder-for-hire plot that targeted her fiancé in 2011, prosecutors said. More than 14 years ago, St. Louis County resident Victoria Rena Williams “secretly took out” an insurance policy on her fiancé, Charles Harris III, before he […]

According to prosecutors, Williams and West “had an exchange involving a food order in the drive-thru” while West had been working.

Williams left following the exchange without paying for or grabbing her order, but later returned and shot West outside of the fast food establishment while she was outside for some fresh air, prosecutors said. West, who was 48, ultimately died at a hospital.

West’s friend, who had been on the phone with West when she was shot, told police she heard a customer yell “I will kill you!” to West over the phone, WHBQ-TV reported.

West’s co-worker had called 911 that evening to report the shooting, according to WMC-TV.

The Memphis Police Department reportedly said Williams and West had a “dispute over a food order” while Williams was in the Church’s Chicken drive-thru. The women didn’t know each other prior to the incident.

Following West’s death, her father, Bruce Stevens, told WMC-TV in 2024 that “Anitra had a personality that could just fill the room.”

Stevens and Anthonette Stevens, who was West’s mother, said that she was one of their six children. They also shared that West was killed after the family had recently taken a trip that West missed due to work.

“Her standards for working are being there, being on time, and doing what she needs to do,” Anthonette Stevens told the TV station. “Being there for the customers and also her employees, she didn’t want to leave people in a lurch all the time. Working in food service is difficult, but she never seemed to tire of it, just kept doing it and doing it.”
