Prime Video’s New Action Thriller Features The Fastest Car Chase Ever Filmed in London
Summary
- Collider’s Steve Weintraub talks with John Krasinski, Wendell Pierce, and Michael Kelly for Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War.
- The trio discuss why returning to the Prime Video series as a movie was the right move, A Quiet Place Part III, and Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness.
- Collider also talks with Ghost War director Andrew Bernstein.
It’s been three years since we saw the fourth and final season of Prime Video’s Jack Ryan, and according to series star and executive producer John Krasinski, even with A Quiet Place Part III now underway, he still hasn’t been able to let go of the CIA analyst fully. “I never felt good about leaving the character behind,” he tells Collider’s Steven Weintraub in an interview for Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War, the streamer’s upcoming spin-off movie.
Ghost War, directed by Andrew Bernstein from a screenplay co-written and produced by Krasinski, thrusts a reluctant Jack Ryan back into the world of espionage. After a covert international mission reveals a deadly conspiracy underway, Ryan must now confront a rogue black-ops unit that seems to know his every move. To best their enemy, Ryan, CIA operative Mike November (Michael Kelly), and their former boss James Greer (Wendell Pierce) team up with Emma Marlow, Sienna Miller’s whipsmart M16 officer, to unravel this intricate web of betrayal.
Don’t miss Collider’s interviews below, where Krasinski, Kelly, and Pierce discuss the move from a TV series to a feature-length return, and why a movie was the right choice to continue Jack Ryan’s legacy, opening up the universe to a whole new audience. The trio talks about “one-upping” the show in terms of scope and spectacle, and Krasinski and Pierce break down the scene that Pierce calls “one of the highlights” of his career. Don’t miss our conversation with Bernstein, as well, where he discusses Ghost War’s record-breaking car chase and more!
John Krasinski Is Ready to Close His Chapter With ‘A Quiet Place 3’
Kelly also shares an exciting tease for Taylor Sheridan fans.
COLLIDER: Before we jump into Jack Ryan and my silly questions…
JOHN KRASINSKI: Dunkin’ Donuts.
Oh, we’re getting there. Don’t worry.
KRASINSKI: Great. [Laughs]
Exactly. Michael, individual for you. I’m a fan of Lioness. Are you a part of Season 3? What can you tell people?
MICHAEL KELLY: I am, yes. We have completed it, and I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s somewhere around the end of the summer, probably, it’ll come out. It’s really good, man. Really fun.
John, I am a fan of these movies called A Quiet Place. I think you’re involved with them. I’m curious, when do you start filming the third one? What do you want to tell fans about it?
KRASINSKI: We start filming one week from today, and this is how nervous and stressed out I am. So I’m glad to be distracted because, yeah, it’s a lot. We’re so excited. Listen, I’m just really excited that I’m being given the chance to close out my chapter. This was always seen as a trilogy in my head. I just wanted to figure it out in an organic way, and I think we have.
‘A Quiet Place’ Star Shares a Hopeful Update on ‘Part 3’ and the Abbott Family’s Role [Exclusive]
Millicent Simmonds is currently starring in the action thriller ‘Pretty Lethal’ at SXSW.
One other thing before we get into Jack. Disclosure Day is coming out this summer, as you guys know. I think John’s aware. For each of you, do you have a favorite Spielberg?
KRASINSKI: Without a doubt, it has to be Jaws for me, because for me, Jaws changed my life in every single way cinematically, in not only how exciting and thrilling a movie can be, how brilliantly a movie can be shot, but also script. I think that that movie doesn’t get given as much due as it should as a script, because it’s such a huge, massive hit movie, but the truth is, I always turn back to it to look at how relationships, especially between three people, are really done.
WENDELL PIERCE: Schindler’s List. Yeah. Man, that…
KRASINSKI: That is the review of everybody for Schindler’s List. “Yeah. That is…”
PIERCE: I am haunted by the little girl in the red coat. That movie really just nailed me to my seat in the theater for a good 20 minutes afterwards. I couldn’t even stand. It was just so impactful.
KELLY: It’s a tough one. I think that he is our greatest storyteller. I’m not going to say filmmaker or whatever. He’s our greatest storyteller. But for me, I would go Jaws, too, just because I remember visiting my family, my dad’s brothers and sisters, and all the cousins, we all got together, and we saw the movie. We were staying at the shore, at the Jersey shore, and I just remember the impact that it had on me as a kid. And of course, watching it later, you realize how great it is, but at the time, to see it and just be like, “Oh my god,” like, it killed me. It killed me for many summers.
Coming to the most important subject: John, this is for you. True or false: You moved back to New York City so you could live next to a Dunkin’ Donuts?
KRASINSKI: That is true. Yeah. I usually dictate most of my movements with Dunkin’ Donuts.
You guys, you won’t understand. This is a 20-year joke between the two of us.
KRASINSKI: It’s true. It was our first interview. Literally.
Yeah, it’s 20 years. So I guess the next most important thing is, did you put a scene on Emirates first class so you guys could all get first class for life on the airline?
KRASINSKI: I wish I could say yes, but I don’t think it’s for life. Definitely for that one flight. But I will tell you that what you see in that scene is not Mike November. That’s just Michael Kelly in first class. This dude grabs every freebie. I think he had six eye masks and 14 glasses of champagne on that one flight.
I like how he’s laughing and not denying it.
KRASINSKI: Correct!
KELLY: [Laughs] Whatever, man. It’s a good time.
KRASINSKI: “They’ve got a shower?!” “Oop, Michael’s on the plane.”
John Krasinski Reveals Why He “Never Felt Good” Leaving Jack Ryan Behind
The trio discuss why it was time for a Jack Ryan movie.
All three of you have done action before, and I’m just curious, which of you was the first one to quote the great Danny Glover and say, “I’m getting too old for this shit,” making this, and was it a sequence or a stunt?
KRASINSKI: That’s really good. Who was the first? I usually live by that quote. I think on this one, what I have learned in my elder wisdom is stretching because, weirdly, where I’ve gotten hurt the most on this show is going from a standstill to a sprint, which you think I would have been able to figure out by now, but nope. It’s usually like, “John, we’ll be ready after lunch.” “Sure. No problem.” And then when we go, it just immediately quads out. I basically can’t walk for two weeks after I do one running scene.
Jack Ryan is a world-class data analyst. If he had to look at the Dunder-Mifflin quarterly reports, would you find a global conspiracy, or would he realize that Kevin Malone is a genius?
KRASINSKI: [Laughs] Why can’t it be both? Why can’t Kevin Malone be behind a global conspiracy?
You’ve added Sienna Miller to this cast as Emma Marlow. On a scale of one to Greer’s grumpiest morning, how quickly did she realize that the three of you are essentially a traveling comedy troupe disguised as CIA?
PIERCE: Almost immediately, so does that make it 10 or 1?
I don’t actually.
KELLY: The funny thing is that she actually became part of that within an hour.
KRASINSKI: She’s the funniest human.
KELLY: She’s so funny.
KRASINSKI: Oh my god.
Being serious, Jack Ryan as a TV show accomplished so much with huge action and spectacle, but John, I am very curious, you co-wrote the screenplay, so what was your goal in making the movie? What did you want to accomplish in this that hadn’t been on the TV show?
KRASINSKI: For me, I was going through exactly what Jack’s going through at the beginning of the movie, which is saying you’re done with something and not being quite sure you were. And so when I said that the show was ending and that I was moving on from that, I never felt good about leaving the character behind because I’ve always loved playing the character.
Then, as far as what we were trying to achieve, I think that there’s a whole new audience that we’re excited to reach that maybe haven’t seen the show. I think that Jack being pulled back into the CIA is very similar to Season 1, when he’s just coming into the CIA back then. So, for me, we never wanted to go near the movies without being extremely respectful, and I think that because of these relationships, we were able to do it. So, I do think that it became 10 times more intense and 10 times more action-packed, and weirdly, therefore, maybe 10 times more fun to shoot.
KELLY: Yeah. I’ve always been a fan of the show. I’ve loved the show. I watched with my kids and my wife. We actually really love it, and I knew this film would be great. Then, when John gave us an early sneak peek at it, I was like, “Oh my god.” It blew my expectations away. I was like, “Wow, we really one-upped the series,” and that’s a tough thing to do, but we did it.
PIERCE: What I look forward to is the fact that this is a standalone movie. If you haven’t seen any of the four seasons, you can still come into this, and it has the impact. So, I’m looking forward to the new group and pool of fans that we’re going to create with this movie.
This ‘Ghost War’ Scene Is “One of the Highlights” of Wendell Pierce’s Career
“I’ve always thought that Greer’s being demoted was such a wonderful opportunity to delve into that storyline.”
There’s this great scene of Jack and Greer in the MI6 office, and they’re arguing over the way intelligence is gathered. Greer says, “There are people in the world who kill the monsters, so you don’t have to.” John, I don’t know how much you wrote that scene specifically, but talk about how important it was that the audience feels that both people are making a valid point. For the two of you, what is it like actually preparing for a scene like that, where there’s a lot of dialogue and a lot of emotion, and you need to make the audience feel that both of you are right?
KRASINSKI: Third part first. You were asking before about how to make the move to the movie. To me, I’ve always thought that Greer’s being demoted was such a wonderful opportunity to delve into that storyline at some point, because not only was he put in a very difficult position, but he’s also carrying this with a great deal of guilt, and that there’s a burden to him with that. So I always knew that that would be a really interesting thing to tap into for the movie.
I also will say, and again, he’ll react however he reacts — I know how he’s going to react — but Wendell is one of the greatest actors I’ve ever seen, let alone had the opportunity to work with, so I knew that in moving from the television show to the movie, the key was going to be he and I not only having the forefront of the story at a lot of times, but also at some point, like brothers, like family, we would have to defend each other’s sides. Because the truth is, like most things in life, he was just doing the best he could. And I love the idea that Jack is so set in his ways about black and white that he didn’t see that sometimes people are just doing the best they can, even if they make a mistake, or even if they do something that they regret.
PIERCE: For me, that scene was one of the highlights, not of just the movie, but of my career. To do that scene with John was like the culmination of everything that our relationship has been over the four years of the show. Then also, his writing in it actually examines and really memorializes the discussions going on and the debates that go on in the intelligence community, and it’s the checks and balances that they go through to stay true to that true north, and hold themselves accountable and hold each other accountable.
Starting the research of this, going all the way back to when it began, meeting the different offices and consultants that we had on the show, it was always very important for us to examine the personal journeys that they’re on to make sure that it’s reflected in the work. There were so many times where I’ve challenged even the officers who are actually friends of mine now on why they were a part of the intelligence community and what was important to them, and why is the mission important to them? And what they’ve all told me is to understand that it’s a time and a place for you to exercise your right of self-determination and actually do the things necessary to make this world, this country, your home, the place that it can be, and ultimately, we all dream of.
So, that’s what’s reflected in that scene. It’s two men who are holding each other accountable and reminding each other what’s important to them and what their values are, and then, “How are we going to go out and act on those values? Be careful and take heed of what you do, there’s accountability.” And that’s what I love about the scene.
‘Ghost War’s 14-Minute Car Chase Broke Records
Krasinski says this action sequence is why he “fell in love with movies to begin with.”
There is a massive action set piece that’s 14 minutes in central London, this massive spectacle. Can you talk about filming that sequence? Is something like that, for you guys, a huge pain in the ass or an example of why you have the best job on the planet?
KRASINSKI: The latter.
PIERCE: The latter, absolutely.
KELLY: 100%.
KRASINSKI: I think that that also is a perfect example of how this business looks like it’s just a bunch of people in front of a camera and then a couple of people behind the camera shooting those people, and it’s a huge ocean of talent and people. That particular sequence took not only hundreds and hundreds of people doing absolute perfect, A work, but also months and months of preparation and a lot of partnerships and a lot of people believing — that’s a big, scary thing for a city to do, and believing that we were going to be true to our word and not hurt anybody and not hurt the city. I think it’s the first car chase in London in over 20 years. And I’m pretty sure it’s the fastest London’s ever let anyone go in a movie, speed-wise, as far as that car chase. For me, I genuinely saw that scene as this is not only why I’m proud to be in the movies myself, but why I fell in love with movies to begin with.
PIERCE: Yeah, it was an adventure for me to be in the center of that. It was like riding a rocket ship, you know? It was like being on the hood of the car, having my stunt driver, Bobby, controlling it from the boot, as they say in London, it was so exciting. I’ll never forget the first day I got there and I said, “Okay, so we have a couple of people there, and we have a couple of people there,” and the stunt coordinator said, “No, Wendell, everything and everyone you see, we control in this Parliament Square.” And that’s when I realized the depth of expertise. It was like it was my Artemis II. I was riding the rocket. It was my Artemis II.
‘Ghost War’ Takes Audiences to All-New Locations With Higher Stakes
Director Andrew Bernstein discusses his practical approach to the action-packed script.
For Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War, Amazon MGM Studios tapped filmmaker Andrew Bernstein to bring his expertise from the series to the first Jack Ryan feature. Bernstein is an Emmy Award-nominated producer and a director best known for his work on hit shows like The West Wing, Ozark, Fear the Walking Dead, Foundation, and It: Welcome to Derry.

Taylor Swift paid tribute to her country roots — and her favorite Toy Story character — while celebrating the film series’ fifth instalment.
Stepping out for the Los Angeles premiere of Toy Story 5 at the Dolby Theatre on Tuesday, June 9, Swift, 36, rocked a strapless Western-inspired patchwork Erdem corset gown on the red carpet.
Swift, who penned her original track “I Knew It, I Knew You” to be featured in the film, paired the fall/winter 2026 creation with a gold horseshoe necklace and gold peep-toe heels. The ensemble’s country theme nodded to Toy Story’s Jessie, who inspired Swift’s new song and also influenced her childhood dress-up days, as revealed by the singer via social media last week.
The romantic ensemble was accentuated with the singer’s signature red lip and cat eye makeup, as well as a half-up hairstyle that showed off her soft bangs.
According to InStyle, Swift leant on styling guidance from Joseph Cassell Falconer, who “has worked with her since her Speak Now era.” (Speak Now was Swift’s third studio album, originally released in October 2010 before it was re-recorded and released again in July 2023.)
The musician posed for photos on the red carpet with the stars of Toy Story 5, which will be released on Friday, June 19, including Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Greta Lee and Conan O’Brien.
An X video, shared by Hollywood Reporter journalist Borys Kit, also captured Swift enjoying time within the theatre itself. Footage showed her speaking to a young child as podcaster Kelly Stafford watched on with her own children.
Additional social media footage shared by Variety showed Swift on stage in the venue, performing “I Knew It, I Knew You” for the first time in public. THR also posted a video that captured Swift joining fellow musician Randy Newman for a live rendition of his Toy Story track “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” treating the audience to a costume change that saw her perform in a vivid yellow floor-length gown.
Swift took to Instagram on Friday, June 5, to mark her inclusion on the Toy Story 5 soundtrack. “Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a @toystory kid from the age of 5 til now … is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond,” she wrote.
Rare childhood footage of Swift accompanied the post, showing her as a youngster stomping around a house dressed in a Jessie-inspired cowgirl outfit complete with a cowboy hat and boots.
Crediting her co-creator Jack Antonoff within the post, Swift continued, “We wrote this with so much adoration for these characters that made us laugh and helped us learn lessons and think outside the backyard all throughout our childhoods.”

Star Trek has been entertaining sci-fi fans for 60 years through TV shows, movies, books, and comics. There’s only one entertainment sector where the franchise historically falters: video games. If we’re being honest, there have only ever been a handful of really good Star Trek games, and the best ones came out literally decades ago. Because of that, any Star Trek fans looking to lose themselves in a good video game would be forgiven for giving a Bones-like prognosis to the state of modern Trek titles: “it’s dead, Jim!”
However, all of that is changing. We already got Star Trek: Voyager—Across the Unknown, a game that puts us in command of Voyager as the crew tries to make it back home from the Delta Quadrant. Later this year, we’ll be getting a SimCity-style game (Star Trek: Outposts Unknown) as well as a digital, customizable card battler (Star Trek Warp). Next year, Star Trek: Shadow Frontier will put us in control of Ro Laren, with Michelle Forbes reprising her role from The Next Generation. So, what’s the deal with all these games? What are they about, and when can you play them? Keep scrolling to replicate answers to all these questions!
Finally, You Can Kill Tuvix Yourself
The first game to kick off the Star Trek video game renaissance is Star Trek: Voyager—Across the Unknown, and it takes the franchise where it has never gone before. You take control of Voyager after it is zapped into the Delta Quadrant, and like Captain Janeway, you must help everyone find their way back home to the Alpha Quadrant. Much of the game is spent managing finite resources and using your best judgment of which systems to prioritize. Speaking of judgment, you’ll have to make snap calls in several adventures (including recreations of iconic Voyager dilemmas, like whether to kill Tuvix) that can save the day or possibly get everyone killed.
The general consensus on Star Trek: Voyager—Across the Unknown (which is out now on console and PC) is that it’s good but not great. The most notable thing about it is arguably its sandbox nature and its emphasis on resource management. Historically, many Star Trek games have been shooters, real-time strategy games, and RPGs filled with bonkers puzzles. This was the first game to focus extensively on both resource management and narrative choices, making it arguably the best Starfleet captain simulation since the 2002 title Star Trek: Bridge Commander.
Two More To Beam Up
Surprisingly enough, we’re going to get two more Star Trek games this year. One of them is Star Trek: Outposts Unknown (which will be released for PC and console sometime this year). This game is designed like SimCity, but with a Trek twist. Basically, you are trying to build, maintain, and defend an outpost on a distant planet. That means exploring strange new worlds, gathering resources, and defending everyone from the planet’s most hostile creatures. While not exactly a cozy game, the Outposts Unknown demo (which is out on Steam) proved surprisingly relaxing, which may be good news for players who don’t like the intensity of games like StarCraft.
The other big Star Trek video game of 2026 is Star Trek Warp. This title is described as a “card battler” that lets players “choose characters from a huge roster of Star Trek legends, heroes, and villains, and deploy them at iconic locations like Ten-Forward and the Warp Core.” With seven virtual lanes to defend, this game is designed to keep you on your toes; the title also features both PvE and PvP modes. Overall, Warp sounds like the weird lovechild of League of Legends (what with the lane defense) and the old Star Trek Customizable Card Game. That might just help it appeal to both young fans and older fans.
A New Strategy And An Old Legend
The most exciting new Star Trek game won’t be coming out until next year. Star Trek: Shadow Frontier is a survival horror title where a Starfleet officer must survive on a mysterious planet. The twist? That officer is Ro Laren, who once left the Enterprise-D to join the Maquis before making her way back to Starfleet. Since her surprise appearance in Picard, fans have been wondering how she went from being a principled rebel to being a good, rule-abiding officer. Shadow Frontier may very well give us that explanation. If nothing else, it will give us something unique: a Silent Hill-type game set in the Star Trek universe.
So, what’s up with this sudden influx of Star Trek video games? The smart money is that Paramount is continuing to throw everything at the wall with this franchise to see what sticks. No Star Trek show is currently in development, and the only definitive thing on the horizon is a movie intended to give this universe its second huge reboot. Trek games (particularly those featuring characters like Ro Laren and Tuvok) are a way of appealing to older fans who like the IP and younger fans who just like gaming. By seeing what sells, Paramount can finally get to the bottom of a decades-old question: what the heck Star Trek fans actually want.

The Pitt is going through another major change — with a main character leaving the ER in season 3.
Shabana Azeez, who plays student doctor Victoria Javadi, told Bustle earlier this month that she will be returning to the hit HBO Max show in a different way, saying, “I’m not in the ER this season.”
Azeez broke down the reason for the shakeup.
“I’ve done my ER rotation, so I’m doing my psychiatry rotation,” she continued. “It’s a very different vibe for me. And I’m scared and nervous. But it’s an honor to be able to show that part of medicine.”
The season 3 update comes after The Pitt received backlash for Supriya Ganesh‘s exit. The actress made her mark on HBO Max’s The Pitt when she was introduced in the role of Samira Mohan.
Ganesh appeared in two seasons before news broke in March that she would be written out of the show after season 2. The decision wasn’t well recieved by fans who were still upset about Tracy Ifeachor‘s exit after season 1. Both departures were referred to as a creative choice.
“It’s sort of the nature of the show. Unfortunately, the way the medical profession works, you come in, you learn, you move on, and we want to try and be as truthful to that process as possible,” Gemmill explained to Us Weekly at the time. “So we’re going to turn over our cast. But I think it’s a great launching pad for people, and that’s the best we can do.”

In a separate interview, Gemmill addressed the criticism surrounding multiple women of color leaving The Pitt.
“It eliminates the false jeopardy some shows have,” he told Vulture. “[Mohan] is somebody who doesn’t have a job lined up and might not know where she’s going next, and we’re trying to build up the uncertainty that these young physicians face.”
The interviewer pointed out to Gemmill that the show’s two major departures have both been women of color. In response, Gemmill called it “just a by-product of having a diverse cast,” adding, “We have a lot of women, and a lot of women of color. It’s just a coincidence more than anything else.”
The Pitt cast has not shied away from reacting to losing some of their own as multiple actors leave the show. HBO Max’s hit series, which premiered in January 2025, follows a group of employees at a fictional Pittsburgh hospital’s ER working a single 15-hour shift. The series is led by Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle), […]
Wyle, 54, also defended the casting shakeup.
“Emergency rooms have a high revolving door,” Wyle told Variety at PaleyFest’s screening of The Pitt earlier this month. “As always, we try to bring in new characters or promote from within as we go through these cast changes and try to keep the story lines fresh.”
Wyle didn’t rule out more departures before the show starts filming season 3, adding, “It’s an inevitability that’s going to happen every season with this show, because as writers we’re hard-pressed to figure out what a lapse of time we can have and keep most of the ensemble together realistically.”
He concluded: “Obviously Supriya has been a huge part of our show since the beginning. Dr. Mohan is a beloved character, and I love playing with her and working with Supriya, and we wish her all the best in her next endeavors, and we’re going to miss her.”
The Pitt has been renewed for season 3 on HBO Max.
Meghan Markle is celebrating the arrival of a new season with a rare look into her home life with Prince Harry and their children.
Markle, 44, took to Instagram on Tuesday, June 9, to post a carousel of candid photos snapped throughout the couple’s idyllic home in Montecito, California.
“Springing into summer 🌼,” the Duchess of Sussex captioned the post, which opened with a black-and-white snap of herself lying on the grass with a straw hat, concealing her face as she sprawled beside a bunch of fresh-cut blooms.
Another shot captured Harry, 41, kicking a super-sized soccer ball around the grass with the couple’s son, Archie, 7, while another image showed their daughter, Lilibet, 5, wearing a white T-shirt emblazoned with an illustration of Beyoncé. “B if for Beyoncé,” read a line of text above the drawing, which also depicted large hoop earrings that read “Queen Bey” from left to right.
A second black-and-white shot showed Markle and Harry from behind, seated on a bench seemingly amid a workout as Markle rested her sneaker-clad feet up next to her as she cuddled Harry, who wore a backwards cap.
Additional photos in the carousel showed the couple’s rescue beagle, Mamma Mia, sleeping under the sunshine just off the home’s porch, a bird’s nest filled with three white eggs and later with three baby birds, Markle rocking a double denim ensemble and slicing onions in the kitchen, and a basket haul of fresh vegetables and fruit seemingly harvested from the family’s garden.
Just five days prior, Markle celebrated Lilibet’s 5th birthday with a smaller Instagram carousel that showed both the youngster exploring a lush green garden and her being doted on by her beaming parents. “Our dream girl,” Markle captioned the post. “Happy 5th birthday, Lili.”
Meghan Markle is celebrating her and Prince Harry’s daughter, Princess Lilibet, on International Women’s Day. “For the woman she will one day be … Happy International Women’s Day,” Meghan, 44, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, March 8, noting that the photo was taken by Harry, 41. “📸: Papa Sussex.” In the snap, Meghan is seen […]
Markle and Harry tied the knot on May 19, 2018, at Windsor Castle’s St George’s Chapel in England. They celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary the same month that they welcomed Archie into the world. The following year, the pair announced their decision to step back as senior members of the royal family before relocating to the U.S. permanently.
News broke in August, 2020, that the couple had purchased a $14.65 million home in Montecito. A source told Us Weekly at the time, “Montecito is only just over an hour’s drive from L.A., which is where a majority of their work is based, yet far enough away to escape the crowds, paparazzi and tourism in Hollywood.”
Lilibet arrived in June 2021. The pair shared via a statement posted to their philanthropy website at the time, “On June 4th, we were blessed with the arrival of our daughter, Lili. She is more than we could have ever imagined, and we remain grateful for the love and prayers we’ve felt from across the globe. Thank you for your continued kindness and support during this very special time for our family.”
The couple added that their daughter’s first name was chosen to honor her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, who died at the age of 96 in September 2022. She had held the family nickname, Lilibet, herself.

Time to roast the host!
Prime Video’s ongoing fantasy series has become a streaming hit. The Amazon-owned streaming platform has been making headlines lately, with shows like Spider-Noir and Off Campus catching audiences’ attention. But, this week, the streaming platform released the latest installment of its adult fantasy adventure.
The Legend of Vox Machina is an animated fantasy series that began as a Dungeons & Dragons web series/live stream called Critical Role, starring Matthew Mercer as the dungeon master and featuring Laura Bailey, Taliesin Jaffe, Ashley Johnson, Liam O’Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, and Travis Willingham as the players. In 2019, a Kickstarter campaign was announced to help fund one animated special, but fans raised over $1 million within the first hour the campaign launched, leading to the show receiving a full season.
Since The Legend of Vox Machina debuted in 2022, the show has released three seasons and is currently airing its fourth. As of writing, the first three episodes of Season 4 were released, and over the weekend, The Legend of Vox Machina landed at #5 on Prime Video’s Top 10 charts worldwide, sitting between Clarkson’s Farm and Yo soy Betty la fea. With only three episodes out, Season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina received high praise, earning a perfect critics’ score and a 95% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
What Is ‘The Legend of Vox Machina’ About?
Based on the first Dungeons & Dragons campaign of Critical Role, The Legend of Vox Machina is set in Mercer’s fictional world of Exandria. The series follows Vox Machina, a group of adventurers who undertake dangerous quests to protect the realm. In Season 3, the team faced the Chroma Conclave, a powerful alliance of dragons that sought to conquer Tal’Dorei. After defeating the Conclave, Vox Machina goes their separate ways. Scanlan Shorthalt (Riegel) leaves to travel with his daughter, Kaylie, while Keyleth (Ray) continues her Aramenté, with Vax’ildan (O’Brien) accompanying her. Meanwhile, Vex’ahlia (Bailey) and Percy de Rolo (Jaffe) begin a new chapter together in Whitestone. Season 4 picks up one year after the events of Season 3, exploring what has become of the members of Vox Machina since their separation. However, a new threat soon emerges, forcing the legendary heroes to reunite once again.
The first three episodes of The Legend of Vox Machina Season 4 are available to stream on Prime Video, with new episodes coming out every Wednesday. Follow Collider for more updates.

Travis Kelce found himself at the center of unexpected controversy after a joking comment from model Jena Sims sparked backlash among Taylor Swift’s fans.
The wife of golfer Brooks Koepka recently referred to the Kansas City Chiefs star as her “hall pass” while recalling their meeting earlier this year, a remark that quickly ignited criticism online.
While Sims appeared to be joking, many Swift supporters were unimpressed, with some accusing her of crossing a line by publicly discussing the NFL star in that way.
The controversy stems from comments Sims recently made while reflecting on her interactions with Travis Kelce.
The model first met the NFL star at a pro-am golf event in Scottsdale, Arizona, earlier this year.
Kelce and Koepka were paired together for nine holes during the tournament, giving Sims an opportunity to meet someone she had apparently admired for years.
At the time, she openly shared her excitement on social media. “I’m obsessed with Taylor Swift’s fiance even before Taylor was in the picture,” Sims said in a TikTok post.
She also uploaded a photo of herself standing alongside Koepka and Kelce at the event while supporting her husband on the course.
Months later, Sims revisited that encounter during an interview and made another comment that quickly grabbed attention online.
While speaking about meeting Kelce, Sims jokingly referred to him as her celebrity exception. “I was so excited to meet Travis Kelce, I mean, he’s my hall pass. Brooks knows that,” she said in an interview with PEOPLE.
The actress also admitted she specifically planned her outfit for the occasion because she knew the NFL star would be there. According to her, she decided to go for something a “little more sportier” than usual.
Sims revealed that her husband found the whole thing amusing. “Brooks was like, ‘You’re so ridiculous,’” she recalled.
Elsewhere in the interview, she also shared that Kelce recognized her when they crossed paths again several weeks later at the Masters. According to her, the interaction caught her completely off guard.
“He came straight up to me and was like, ‘Hey, it’s good to see you again,’” she said. The recognition surprised Sims because she never expected Kelce to remember her after their brief meeting in Arizona.
“I’m like, ‘Oh my God. You remember me?’” she recalled.
Although she clearly enjoyed the interaction, Sims joked that she will not be receiving an invitation to Kelce and Swift’s wedding.
Despite making the remarks as a joke, many Taylor Swift fans did not find the comments quite as funny. Several took to social media to criticize the interview, arguing that the remarks were inappropriate considering Travis Kelce’s relationship with the singer.
One user wrote per the Daily Mail, “This is the kinda sh-t you keep to yourself and don’t say in an interview…” Others were equally blunt in their reactions.
The backlash continued as Swift fans dissected various parts of Sims’ interview. Some were particularly surprised by her admission that she intentionally dressed differently because she expected to meet Kelce.
“To admit the outfit you’re wearing is because of Travis ….like wtf who says that in an interview,” one critic commented.
Another user questioned why the topic needed to be discussed publicly at all. “I’ve never heard of this woman but how disrespectful to all involved. Maybe she shouldn’t be publicly sharing her ‘hall pass’ as a joke,” they said.
Others summed up their reactions in simpler terms. “CRINGE,” one person posted.
Swift and Kelce’s Rumored Venue Linked To Attack That Left Five Injured
Amid the drama, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are getting ready to walk down the aisle this summer.
As the couple gear up for their big day, their wedding venue has been connected to a disturbing crime story.
As The Blast reported, a violent stabbing rampage unfolded just steps away from Madison Square Garden, the New York arena reportedly being considered for their wedding.
According to reports, five people were slashed inside Penn Station on June 7 when an assailant allegedly attacked victims at random inside the busy transit hub located directly beneath Madison Square Garden.
The incident immediately drew attention because Swift and Kelce are rumored to be planning to host between 1,100 and 1,200 guests on July 3.
Now, security concerns have become an even bigger talking point. Reports indicate Madison Square Garden quickly has implemented enhanced security measures for major events in the area, including increased screening procedures, perimeter controls, and stricter entry requirements.
Taylor Swift Reportedly Left Feeling ‘Very Vulnerable’ After Wedding Leaks Force Major Changes
Last month, The Blast reported that Swift and Travis Kelce were forced to overhaul parts of their wedding plans after a series of leaks exposed details about the highly anticipated event.
According to sources, the leaks were “incredibly disheartening” for the couple, with one insider claiming they had already changed venues and dates in an effort to protect their privacy.
“They’ve had to change venues and dates. It’s been such a monstrous headache, but even worse, it has left Taylor feeling very vulnerable. There are a lot of questions about who to trust,” the source said.
The reported breaches allegedly prompted Swift to become even more protective of the guest list, with strict no-plus-one rules implemented for many attendees.
Insiders claimed the singer didn’t want “random faces in the crowd” and was determined to prevent anyone from “spying” on the ceremony.
One source described the planning process as being “orchestrated like a military operation,” adding that Swift was willing to make “hard choices” if it meant preserving the privacy of what is expected to be one of the most closely watched celebrity weddings in recent memory.
Entertainment
‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Meets ‘The Lord of the Rings’ in This Fantasy Adventure Sleeper Hit
While science fiction has been dominating entertainment in 2026, fantasy has been on the rise lately, with the release of Masters of the Universe, Season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina, and, arguably, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which has reached $1 billion at the global box office. With many fantasy-adventure projects coming out, it’s no surprise that fans of the genre are revisiting one of its most underrated films, which features a star-studded cast but was seen as a box-office disappointment despite high praise.
Recently, a handful of projects that were seen as disappointments at release have found new audiences on streaming. One current example is the Battleship movie — based on the board game of the same name and featuring a slew of A-list celebrities — which was one of the “biggest box-office bombs of all time,” but has made a streaming comeback. Now, another movie based on a popular board game has found a new audience on streaming.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was a 2023 fantasy heist film based on the Dungeons & Dragons franchise. Recently, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves dominated Pluto TV’s Top 10 Movie charts during the weekend, ranking #1 in the U.S., just above Top Gun: Maverick. Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves stars Chris Pine as Edgin the bard, as he embarks on a heist with his friend Holga the barbarian (Michelle Rodriguez), Simon the wizard (Justice Smith), and Doric the druid (Sophia Lillis) to take back a magic artifact from their former friend and con artist Forge (Hugh Grant), and regain the trust of Edgin’s daughter, Kira (Chloe Coleman). Alongside the main cast, the film also features Bradley Cooper as Holga’s ex-husband, Marlamin; the Australian comedy group Aunty Donna; and a live-action cameo from the main characters of the Dungeons & Dragons TV series.
Is ‘Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves’ Worth Watching?
Since its release, Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has grossed over $208 million worldwide and was seen as a box-office disappointment. However, the movie was highly praised, earning a 91% Certified Fresh critics’ score and a 92% Verified Hot audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. According to critics, ScreenRant praised the movie’s action sequences and special effects, but there were moments where it may be hard to keep up with the Dungeons & Dragons references, especially for those who have not played the board game. Meanwhile, CBR also praised the movie, most notably the cast, who were able to bring their characters’ personalities and archetypes to life.
Collider’s Carly Lane gave Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves a “B+” rating. She praised the movie for being thoughtful and playful in its execution, and for its filmmakers, Jonathan Goldstein, John Francis Daley, and screenwriter Michael Gillio, for adapting a franchise without shoving Easter eggs or fan service into every scene.
Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is available to stream on Pluto TV. Follow Collider for more updates.
