After years away from Hollywood’s spotlight, Ellen DeGeneres is stepping back into a familiar role that once defined her film career.

The unexpected return comes after a turbulent period marked by controversy, public scrutiny, and a major career shift, setting the stage for what could be one of her most closely watched comebacks yet.

The longtime television host and comedian is set to reprise her beloved role as Dory in a new short film connected to the “Finding Nemo” universe.

According to Deadline, the project marks her first film role in years, bringing her back to a character that resonated with audiences worldwide.

DeGeneres originally voiced Dory in 2003’s “Finding Nemo” and returned for the 2016 sequel “Finding Dory,” which became a massive commercial success, earning over $1 billion globally.

That sequel ultimately marked her last appearance in a feature film before stepping away from Hollywood projects.

Her return to the animated franchise signals a full-circle moment, especially given how closely her voice became tied to the character’s identity and charm.

Ellen DeGeneres Faced Career Fallout After Workplace Allegations

The comeback follows a difficult chapter in DeGeneres’ career that began in 2020.

The controversy gained traction after a viral tweet invited people to share negative experiences about the star, quickly drawing widespread attention.

Soon after, an investigation was launched following allegations from former employees of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” who claimed there were issues involving workplace culture, including bullying and misconduct.

The fallout led to major internal changes, including the removal of key executive producers.

DeGeneres later issued a formal apology to staff and addressed the situation publicly, but the damage to her public image lingered.

Her daytime show eventually came to an end in May 2022 after nearly two decades on air, closing a significant chapter in her career.

Ellen DeGeneres Reflects On Controversy And Personal Growth

In the years following the controversy, Ellen DeGeneres opened up about the experience and how it affected her personally.

She described the period as both challenging and transformative.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in 2022, she said, “I have to just trust that whatever happened during that time, which was obviously very, very difficult, happened for a reason.”

She continued, “I think that I learned a lot, and there were some things that came up that I was shocked and surprised by. It was eye-opening, but I just trust that that had to happen.”

Despite the setbacks, DeGeneres has maintained that the experience offered her valuable perspective, even as it reshaped her place in the entertainment industry.

Return Attempts Draw Mixed Reactions From Audiences

Following a period away from the public eye, Ellen DeGeneres attempted to reconnect with audiences through her 2024 Netflix stand-up special, “Ellen DeGeneres: For Your Approval.”

The project marked her first major on-screen appearance since stepping back from daytime television.

However, the reception was far from unanimous. The special received mixed to negative reviews, with critics and audiences divided on its tone and content.

The response suggested that rebuilding her public image might take time, even as she works to reestablish her presence.

The reaction reflected the complexity of her comeback, with lingering perceptions from past controversies still influencing how new projects are received.

DeGeneres Splits Life Between UK And California

Outside of her professional life, Ellen DeGeneres has also made notable changes to her personal lifestyle.

She and her wife, Portia de Rossi, spent time living in the United Kingdom following political developments in the United States.

Reflecting on the move, DeGeneres shared per the Daily Mail, “We got here the day before the election and woke up to lots of texts from our friends with crying emojis, and I was like, ‘He got in.’ And we’re like, ‘We’re staying here.’”

She also spoke warmly about her experience abroad, saying, “It’s absolutely beautiful. We’re just not used to seeing this kind of beauty. The villages and the towns and the architecture – everything you see is charming and it’s just a simpler way of life.”

Continuing her thoughts, she added, “It’s clean. Everything here is just better – the way animals are treated, people are polite. I just love it here. We moved here in November, which was not the ideal time, but I saw snow for the first time in my life. We love it here. Portia flew her horses here, and I have chickens, and we had sheep for about two weeks.”

Despite her appreciation for the UK, DeGeneres has since expanded her presence back in the United States, purchasing a high-value home in Montecito, California.

The couple now appears to divide their time between both locations.

As her return to the “Finding Nemo” franchise approaches, all eyes are on whether this new chapter will redefine her legacy or simply reopen conversations about her past.

Wedding season is upon us, and that probably means you need to find a formal dress for at least one special event. As someone who has been to more than my fair share of weddings, I know the struggle of shopping for luxe-looking dresses that also fit the dress code, season and overall vibe. But after dozens of weddings, I’ve become a pro at finding stylish picks that are guaranteed to get you compliments.

From long and glamorous gowns for black tie affairs to short and flirty cocktail dresses perfect for a daytime wedding, there’s something for every wedding goer below. The best part: you won’t have to spend your entire paycheck to get one.

17 Wedding Guest Dresses Everyone Compliments

1. My Favorite: Elegant and sophisticated, PrettyGarden’s maxi dress works for a few different dress codes and looks so much more expensive than it is. The silky look and draping in the torso make it extra special.

2. Runner-Up: I love this mermaid maxi dress for a black tie optional affair or even something slightly less formal. The ruffle is fun, and the material is thick, stretchy and surprisingly comfortable.

3. Short and Sweet: This mini dress is a versatile pick that would work as cocktail attire for a wedding or even as a cute dress for a different special event. I appreciate the arm coverage and flattering wrap-style top.

4. Tummy-Hiding Pick: While Nia’s strapless dress has a more body-con fit at the bodice, the rippled ruching throughout makes it extra flattering. The chiffon skirt also allows for plenty of movement.

5. So Versatile: A staple in my closet, this tie-strap dress can easily be dressed up for a wedding, but can also work for other special events. I love the feminine details, like the bows at the shoulder and ruffled hem.

6. Florals for Spring: They might not be groundbreaking, but florals are always a classic go-to print. This maxi dress has the prettiest silhouette with a flattering halter neckline and on-trend drop waist.

7. Open Back: Show a little skin with an open-back maxi dress. The slinky look, feel and unique floral design are guaranteed to get you tons of compliments.

8. Little Black Dress: It’s hard to go wrong with a timeless option like this black bodycon dress. The ruching helps to hide your tummy while the flowy sleeves balance out the plunging V-neck.

9. Black Tie Ready: Adrianna Papell’s high-low gown is a stunning option for your fanciest affair. With a ruffled hem, tighter fit and flattering draping at the belly, this will look good on anyone.

10. So Many Options: Snag this convertible gown while you can. The adjustable ties mean you can wear it so many different ways, so it can be a new dress every time you put it on. And the stretchy mesh material is super comfy too.

11. Ruffled Perfection: Trust me: the color of this midi dress is even brighter and more beautiful in person. The tiered ruffled skirt makes it feel just dramatic enough, and the plunging necklines are worthy of a special occasion.

12. Worth the Splurge: If you’re going to spend a lot, do so on a classic dress you can wear more than once. This sheath maxi fits the bill, with a gorgeous fit and details that make it feel so high-end.

13. Long Sleeves: If you prefer to keep your arms covered, this maxi dress is a stylish option. The sheer sleeves keep it from being too much fabric, and the floral design is so pretty.

14. Hollywood Glam: Reformation’s silk maxi dress is glamorous enough on its own, but when you add the sheer cape that comes with it? It’s basically red-carpet ready. And the cape can be removed when you want to shed your layers.

15. Tried and True: A black maxi dress like this one is always a go-to in my closet. The pleating throughout makes this stand out, and it has a beautiful fit.

16. Slinky Slip: Made of the prettiest ribbed fabric with a silky soft feel, this cowl neck dress is rich, mom-approved. It also has a perfectly stretchy feel, making it surprisingly comfortable.

17. Looks Expensive: A sculptural and unique pleating makes this formal gown look like it came from a high-end designer — but it’s actually under $100. This is a standout look that works for formal and even black tie affairs.

Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans has continued to bring innovation to the season, for better or for worse. “I Deserve All Of This,” the episode that aired on April 22, 2026, continued this trend with two historic Survivor firsts, both of which came from fans of the show. Voting was open before the season was filmed for fans to decide some elements of the game, like how hard the challenges would be. Meanwhile, celebrity fans like Billie Eilish and Zac Brown have had suggestions and appearances that have changed the game.

That influence hit its peak in this episode, where even host Jeff Probst stepped into the game, while a separate twist led to fan-favorite Christian Hubicki’s painful elimination.

Jeff Probst Puts His Money Where His Mouth Is

The first of the two historic events was during the immunity challenge. Fans of the show should recognize the competition in which individualized buckets representing each castaway’s weight at the start of the season are tied through a pulley to rolling metal bars. Contestants have to hang onto the bar and keep their bucket from crashing to the ground. This challenge has been a Survivor staple for many seasons.

The new twist borrowed from another Survivor staple: bartering for rice. Typically, if the tribe needs rice, host Jeff Probst offers to trade a bag in exchange for some number of contestants sitting out of the challenge. This time, though, Probst put his money where his mouth is and turned the rice barter into a side bet between himself and four castaways (who turned out to be Jonathan Young, Tiffany Ervin, Ozzy Lusth, and Joe Hunter). Everyone still participated in the immunity challenge, but so did Jeff, and the castaways would win the rice if the four volunteers could outlast him.

They did. Handily. In fact, most of the tribe did as Probst struggled with this well-used challenge of the show, shocked at how difficult it was. The competition only got more hilarious when the first three contestants to lose the challenge were Rick Devens, Emily Flippen, and Rizo “RizGod” Velovic, all three known for their flamboyant senses of humor. Devens put his news anchor skills to work, taking over for Probst by making commentary that was augmented by the other two.

Christian Was Done Dirty

In addition to besting Jeff Probst in the challenge, Joe won immunity. Part of his prize was to select someone to go on one of Survivor’s infamous journeys. Ever fair to a point that would make Ned Stark blush, Joe had the remaining contestants play a game of rock-paper-scissors, which ultimately saw genius Christian Hubicki go on a journey that would be a second, tragic instance of new Survivor lore.

Christian was tasked with putting together a puzzle while timed anchors dropped into the ocean around him. Once they all dropped, they would pull the puzzle with them. The stakes were set by late night talk show host Jimmy Fallon, whose contribution to the game was the consequences, win or lose. If Christian succeeded in putting together the puzzle, he’d win an extra vote that he could make right then, causing someone else to walk into Tribal Council with one vote against them. If he lost, he had to read a sinister letter to the rest of the tribe.

Shockingly, Christian just couldn’t get the puzzle together before it, and his hopes of an extra vote, were whisked away into the Pacific. The letter was even worse: it revealed that Christian would be voting for himself at Tribal Council. Since the entire tribe knew Christian’s vote had to be for himself, a coalition was formed against him, and he became the show’s latest victim and newest jury member. Thanks, Jimmy Fallon.

Jimmy Fallon Continues His Villain Arc

Fans were split about this twist, noting that both winning and losing might not have been advantageous. A win was a double-edged sword in that, without knowing who his allies were voting for, Christian’s vote would dictate to the rest of them. However, almost all the fans, even those who don’t like Christian, were angry at the way he went home and the fact that he was forced to vote for himself. Christian himself was extremely displeased as he wrote his own name down, directing some commentary at Jimmy Fallon in the voting booth.

In a twist worthy of the show, Fallon not only had Christian on The Tonight Show but also took the opportunity to publicly apologize to him. While the late-night host was impressed with his idea for a twist, he admitted that he was sad that it fell upon one of his favorite players in the game.

Who will be the newest twist victim next week as the classic Survivor auction is joined by the long-awaited Mr. Beast? Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans airs Wednesday nights at 8 p.m. on CBS and streams the next day on Paramount Plus.

Sydney Sweeney is a strange place in Hollywood. She’s a star. People devour every bit of news they can find about her, but she’s still trying to find her footing. The Housemaid was a hit, Euphoria Season 3 finally arrived, but the jury’s out on how it sticks the landing, which means all eyes are on her next major project for Netflix: a live-action Gundam adaptation. After years of rumors, the film has entered production. Sydney Sweeney’s Gundam movie is on the way. 

Sydney Sweeney Overshadows Massive Mecha

It doesn’t matter what the actual name of the movie is, or what part of the long-running franchise is being brought to live-action, because it’s going to be referred to as Sydney Sweeney’s Gundam Movie across social media. Netflix has come out and clarified that this won’t be tied to any specific era or sub-series, so it’s not adapting Gundam Wing, Char’s Counterattack, The Witch From Mercury, G-Gundam, or any of the other fan favorites going back decades. That’s either a smart decision, as nothing could compare to the fan expectations for an adaptation, or an early setup for failure, since there are great stories and characters already out there that may not get used. 

Joining Sydney Sweeney in Sydney Sweeney’s Gundam Movie are Noah Centineo as the male lead, Michael Mando (from Better Call Saul) who’s likely going to play the slightly unhinged psychotic villain, and Jason Isaacs, who’s likely going to play the evil authoritarian figure orchestrating the attack against the Earth/Colonies, depending on which side this version of Gundam wants to paint as the heroes. 

Gundam Fans Have Good Reason To Be Nervous

The basic plot of Sydney Sweeney’s Gundam Movie is again centered on the conflict between the forces of Earth and those of the Space Colonies. Netflix’s brief summary mentions a “high-stakes race across the stars” which could be a hint of a technological discovery, or a rare resource, that both sides want to retrieve. Given Netflix’s recent track record with live-action anime adaptations, with One Piece hitting and Avatar missing, Gundam’s live-action debut could land on either end of the spectrum.

Jim Mickle, who worked with Netflix on bringing the graphic novel Sweet Tooth to life on the platform, will direct the upcoming Gundam film that honestly, as more information is coming out, sounds like it might be closer to the Americanization of Godzilla in 1998 than it is One Piece. Which is a shame, as Gundam is one of the most popular anime in history, and Gundam Wing is widely credited for popularizing the entire medium thanks to its prime spot in Cartoon Network’s Toonami lineup. 

 
Netflix already hosts the Gundam Seed series (the original, Freedom, and Destiny) alongside Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway, and the CG series Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, which turns the giant mecha into horror monsters. Bringing Gundam to live-action is a no-brainer that countless studios have attempted over the decades. Could this be the film that lets Sydney Sweeney reach a brand-new audience and cements her career? Or will this be another misguided misstep similar to Christie? No matter what happens, you’re going to hear about it.

It really takes a lot for me to sit through an entire movie without knowing what the hell it’s about, and I most recently experienced this with 1996’s Savage. There are so many unrelated storylines that feel like they should connect and lead to a satisfying payoff, but they never really do. My experience with the film made me want it all to make sense, but I had to read detailed plot synopses on both Wikipedia and IMDb just to make heads or tails of the thing, and somehow I ended up even more confused.

Normally when I write reviews, I open those tabs to get the character and talent names straight because I’m great with faces but terrible with names. In this case, I had to SparkNote my way through the plot because Savage is profoundly nonsensical, to the point where I think it should be studied.

Savage is a sci-fi action film, but also a revenge film, but also a film about ancient aliens, super-powered cavemen, and an evil virtual reality game company, all of which are completely at odds with each other. Visually, it’s an absolute feast of low-budget special effects, which is what drew me to it during a late-night Tubi scroll in the first place. I don’t regret watching it, but I can’t speak for how you’ll feel about this one, dear reader.

Hell Hath No Fury Like An Alien Caveman Hellbent On Revenge

Here’s where I try to explain what Savage is all about. A man named Alex Verne (Olivier Gruner) gets committed to a psychiatric hospital after his family is randomly murdered. One day, two years later, he decides it’s time to escape. Wandering through the desert, he hears a voice that leads him to a cave. Inside are paintings of ancient aliens. Alex lives like this for an indeterminate amount of time until he encounters an alien apparition that first takes the form of his dead wife, and then the killer. The alien tells him he has to get revenge because the killer will do it again to “millions of others.”

Alex gets electrocuted and suddenly has superhuman strength, which pairs nicely with the caveman skills he developed while living out in the desert. He wanders the streets naked and gets taken into police custody, where he meets Officer Nicky Carter (Jennifer Grant), who’s put off by his strange behavior but still somehow finds him irresistible enough to become a valuable ally by the third act.

Meanwhile, and completely out of nowhere, we’re introduced to Reese Burroughs (Kario Salem), the corrupt chairman of the Titan Corporation. He specializes in virtual reality video games and has hilariously named henchmen Marie Beloc (Kristin Minter), Edgar Wallace (Sam McMurray), and Allan Poe (Herschel Sparber) following him around wherever he goes. As luck would have it, Reese has been waiting a long time for a police report about a weird naked caveman type getting arrested, and now he has to track down Alex and eliminate him for … reasons, I guess.

Alex, now referred to as a savage by Reese and his goons due to his alien caveman abilities, escapes the holding cell, hellbent on breaching the Titan Corporation for … other reasons, I guess, as the home viewer (because this is obviously a direct-to-VHS effort) tries to piece these plot points together. You’re left wondering how the final showdown between these characters will play out in both the real world and the virtual one they occupy.

Thematically Bankrupt With Plenty Of Visual Bangers

Most reasonable people will read the above synopsis of Savage and decide not to watch it. I don’t blame them. However, for a direct-to-video sci-fi B-movie, it has tremendous visuals. The virtual reality sequences are immersive. The aliens are corny but cool, and they perfectly capture that “waking up at 3 am and this is what’s playing on TV after I passed out watching something else” vibe that I remember so fondly from my university days.

If you can get past the fact that the plot makes no sense, Savage is tremendously fun to watch. Personally, I treated it as a series of vaguely related vignettes occupying the same universe, which allowed me to appreciate the visuals without scrutinizing the storytelling too much. That said, it feels like there has to be a director’s cut floating around somewhere because the connection between Alex and Reese is vague at best until far too late in the runtime.

Savage, in all of its insane glory, is currently streaming for free on Tubi. Throw it on when you’re looking for something different because there’s nothing quite like it. Just don’t say I didn’t warn you when you get halfway through and realize that so much has happened without telling anything close to a coherent story.

The Star Wars sequels are very different from the prequels in writing, tone, characterization, and more. But these newer movies have one thing in common with older films like The Phantom Menace: they are best enjoyed ironically. For example, The Rise of Skywalker may have failed to deliver organic storytelling or satisfying character arcs, but it did give us hilariously bad lines such as Poe Dameron’s “Somehow, Palpatine returned.” It took fans no time at all to make endless memes of this silly dialogue to make fun of how poorly thought-out the sequels are.

Recently, Josh Horowitz interviewed Oscar Isaac, and the Poe Dameron actor actually spoke about the infamous line of dialogue. In the interview, Isaac revealed that this line was added at the last minute as part of reshoots for this final film in the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. He also gently called the line of dialogue out, revealing that he was surprised that it became his most famous line, and that when he rewatches the scene, he mostly focuses on how good his wig looks.

He’s Just A Poe Boy

In The Last Jedi, Kylo Ren surprised us all by killing Lord Snoke, the mysterious First Order leader who had been set up to be the franchise’s newest Big Bad. Instead of giving us a new villain for the sequel, J.J. Abrams brought Emperor Palpatine back for The Rise of Skywalker. This was understandably confusing for fans because we all saw him die in Return of the Jedi. His body seemingly blew up after Darth Vader threw him into a Death Star shaft. Shortly thereafter, the entire space station exploded. How the heck could anyone, even someone with the power of Emperor Palpatine, survive all that?

Well, The Rise of Skywalker didn’t bother to explain something so fundamental to Star Wars lore. Instead, the beginning and end of the explanation were given to Oscar Isaac, whose Poe Dameron character reveals to his fellow Resistance members that “somehow, Palpatine returned.” The dialogue is frustrating in its vagueness, and it arguably highlights the core problem of the Sequel Trilogy. Namely, the seeming belief among writers, producers, and directors that nothing has to make sense and that fans will show up to blindly support anything with the Star Wars name on it.

How Palpatine Got His Groove Back

In Oscar Isaac’s interview with Josh Horowitz, he was pretty blunt about the circumstances that led to this infamous line of dialogue. “Yeah, those were reshoorts … those are like surgical strikes where you come in and try to make sense of it all while they’re scrambling to get everything done. That line was a new addition, right at the end.” While Isaac didn’t directly criticize how bad the script for The Rise of Skywalker was, his words emphasize the haphazard nature of the entire film. Apparently, JJ Abrams and his team forgot to explain how Palpatine came back to life, and having Isaac’s hotshot pilot blurt out “somehow, Palpatine returned” was the best thing they could come up with.

Plus, there’s a bit of ambiguity (intentionally, I imagine) in his phrasing of reshoots as “surgical strikes.” He could simply be talking about the actors who come back for reshoots trying to understand what has changed since they were last on set. Of course, he could also be talking about how Abrams and his team used last-minute reshoots to make their botched story line somehow make sense. Either way, he’s calling out The Rise of Skywalker for being a movie so crazy that even those who spent months making it had no idea what it was really about.

Now, Disney is hoping that the upcoming film The Mandalorian & Grogu will help reignite fans’ passion for this dying franchise. Unfortunately, after a decade of executive mismanagement, most of the fandom no longer trusts the creators involved to deliver a quality product. If the film somehow blows us all away, though, fans may finally put a positive spin on Oscar Isaac’s most infamous line with their own ironic twist: “somehow, Star Wars returned.”
