Let’s be honest — when Bethenny Frankel, Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan all agree on something, we’re listening. The former Real Housewives of New York City stars have spent years in front of cameras, so they know exactly what it takes to keep skin looking smooth and lifted. However, the real shocker is that their go-to wrinkle cream isn’t some luxury splurge — it’s a $28 drugstore staple.
The trio reunited in partnership with RoC and didn’t hold back about what they actually use. Their top pick? The brand’s Deep Wrinkle Rich Cream, a formula designed to target dryness, firmness and fine lines all at once. Given that the reality stars are 55, 62 and 69 respectively — with skin that still looks incredibly youthful! — we’re definitely taking notes.

Finding a sunscreen that actually works for sensitive skin — without stinging, clogging or leaving a heavy film — isn’t always easy, which is why Cameron Diaz keeps her routine simple with one that checks all the boxes. Her go-to SPF, the Colorescience Colorescience Brush-On Sunscreen, is known for being gentle, lightweight and easy to […]
What makes RoC’s cream stand out starts with its formula. It’s powered by the brand’s patented retinol, which is designed to be more potent than typical versions, helping smooth the look of deep wrinkles over time. At the same time, it’s balanced with bio-ceramides that support the skin barrier, so it hydrates while it treats.
There’s also calcium infused into the formula, which helps revitalize and strengthen the skin, resulting in a firmer, more lifted appearance. This makes it a cream that works on multiple concerns at once, delivering up to 100 hours of hydration while improving texture day after day. Also dermatologist-tested, fragrance-free and gentle enough for sensitive skin, it’s an easy addition to almost any routine.
Plus, it’s not just a Housewife favorite — the Deep Wrinkle Rich Cream is a hit with everyday shoppers, too, with more than 3,000 sold in the past month. One reviewer praised the “visible results,” sharing that their skin feels “softer” and “firmer.” Another said they noticed a “noticeable reduction” in fine lines and wrinkles “pretty much instantly” after starting use.
Bethenny, Ramona and Sonja might not agree on everything, but this wrinkle cream is clearly the exception. It simplifies your routine while delivering smoother, firmer-looking skin over time. Add it to cart for just $28 on Amazon and see the RHONY-approved difference.

12 Years Later, Ridley Scott’s $100M Historical Epic Flop Is Exploding on Free Streaming
He might be nearing 90 years old, but nothing is going to slow Ridley Scott down. Later this year, Scott will try to put his disappointing pair of most recent movies — Napoleon and Gladiator II — out of mind with the release of his newest sci-fi venture. The Dog Stars, a post-apocalyptic sci-fi film that adapts Peter Heller‘s novel of the same name, hasn’t had the smoothest road to release, being pushed from its original March 27, 2026, release date to August 28, 2026. Although some believed this was due to a competitive spring market, it’s also been reported that test screenings proved so positive that August was deemed a better time to capitalize on the movie’s potential.
As can be expected from a Scott movie, the cast for The Dog Stars is stacked with talent, including Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin, Margaret Qualley, and Guy Pearce. Given the cast involved and Scott’s penchant for producing critically acclaimed sci-fi, it’s easy to assume the movie will be one of the best of the year. However, Scott certainly isn’t immune to disappointments, with one of his biggest failures released back in 2014. The film in question is Exodus: Gods and Kings, an ambitious biblical epic that awarded Scott a hefty $140 million budget and the freedom to produce an unforgettable cinematic experience.
Alas, critics were less than pleased, with Exodus: Gods and Kings earning just 29% on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. This is despite the film’s impressive cast, much like the upcoming The Dog Stars, which was led by Christian Bale as Moses and Joel Edgerton as Ramses. The rest of the ensemble included Ben Kingsley as Nun, John Turturro as Seti, Aaron Paul as Joshua, Ben Mendelsohn as Viceroy Hegep, long-time Scott collaborator Sigourney Weaver as Tuya, and Indira Varma as the High Priestess.
‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’ Is Bouncing Back
Twelve years after it left a lot to be desired in its poor theatrical run, Exodus: Gods and Kings is bouncing back on streaming ahead of the release of The Dog Stars. At the time of writing, the movie is one of the ten most-streamed in the U.S. on free streamer Tubi, a feat made all the more impressive when considering the film’s tough competition, which includes Sean Connery’s The Rock, a pair of Predator movies, and Martin Scorsese‘s gangster masterpiece GoodFellas.
Exodus: Gods and Kings was a streaming hit on Tubi, although sadly left the platform on April 30. Stay tuned to Collider for more streaming updates.

The landscape of daytime television is changing, with one of the most recent casualties being Sherri Shepherd‘s daytime talk show. Now, as the series nears its end, the beloved actress and comedian is opening up about her future in entertainment and revealing if she’ll consider bringing “Sherri” to social media.
TMZ interviewed Shepherd in May 2026 as she was leaving an event. The conversation started with the reporter noting the rise of celebrities making content on social media. They then asked the comedian if she would consider a similar fate for “Sherri” as it’s set to end.
She responded, “I don’t know. It’s like 6 million podcasts out there, so I have to figure out what I can do that’s different from the 6 million podcasts out there.” From there, the 59-year-old revealed that she had considered bringing the show to social media.
However, she’s also an acclaimed actress who has worked in sitcoms and films, and Shepherd stated that she’s considering returning to acting full-time. When asked if she’s gotten any offers, the host said, “I’ve had meetings and everything.”
The Host Teased New Projects
Shepherd continued her interview with TMZ and was then asked whether she plans to take a break after “Sherri” ends. According to her, “As soon as I finish my tour, I gotta go to South Africa to film my movie, ‘Angel in the Rubbel.’”
She went on to reveal that she’s executive producing the film alongside Robin Roberts for Lifetime. Additionally, she has a Hallmark movie set to be released, as well as a romance novel. Shepherd said, “No breaks,” before teasing that she’ll be on “somebody’s TV.”
Elsewhere in the interview, the “Trial & Error” alum was asked about the most surprising phone call she’s received amid news that Debmar Mercury had canceled “Sherri.” She said, “I’ve gotten phone calls from a lot of celebrities. Cussing folks out. I’ve got ratched celebrities that love me.”
Shepherd added, “But everybody’s been so encouraging, and the love has just been absolutely amazing.”
Fans Know Sherri Shepherd Will Bounce Back
Shepherd has made it no secret that hosting a daytime talk show was one of her career ambitions. Because of this, the news of her show’s cancellation is even harder for fans of the series, as well as for those who were fans of Shepherd years before the series. Now, many of them are reacting to her potentially bringing the show to social media and her upcoming projects
One person wrote on X, “It seems like she finally accepted that her talk show is canceled and it’s time to move on.” Someone else said, “If Sherri Shepherd smiles any harder her teeth may fall out. Masking that anger…”
After that, a different social media user stated, “Excited to see what’s next for Sherri Shepherd, she’s just getting started. She’s too talented to slow down. Whatever comes next will be big.” Another person said, “DUHH, go back to acting! What do you even mean?”
Lastly, someone else used a Wendy Williams GIF, writing, “Bring back Wendy!”
Gayle King Surprised Sherri For Her Final Live Show
There are still several more airdates for “Sherri.” However, on April 30, the series’ final live show aired, with journalist Gayle King surprising the host by wearing the same outfit as her for a special appearance.
King said on Instagram alongside a video of the appearance, “I love a good surprise! @sherrieshepherd’s team invited me to her last live show today and asked that I wear the same @bruceglen dress.”
She continued, “It’s a thing with me and Sherri! I can’t imagine daytime TV without Sherri. There’s nobody like her on the air, and here’s hoping she’s back on TV with a new show sooner rather than later. In the meantime, lucky us we can keep watching @sherrishowtv until [the] end of May!”
There Will Be Several More Guests On ‘Sherri’
Though the final live episode of “Sherri” has aired, several more are still scheduled for broadcast. Per the show’s official website, the week of May 4 through 8 will feature celebrities such as Carson Kresley, Matt Friend, and Taraji P. Henson.
According to Block Topickz on X, the final week of shows has also been set. According to the report, Niecy Nash-Betts will be the show’s final guest. It will air on May 21. Though May 21 will be the final new episode of the series, reruns will continue airing into the fall.

“Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” star Tatyana Ali details traumatizing birth of son: 'They pushed him back inside me'
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/tatyana-ali-1-146a3e8a66f043a2bb6af354c70d3792.jpg)
“It’s an incredibly dangerous thing that they did,” she recalled. “They could have snapped his neck.”
Following Daniel Craig‘s ushering of the franchise into a modern era, the future of the James Bond franchise is in the hands of a global powerhouse after Amazon acquired the rights to the iconic spy series for an eye-watering $1 billion. Director Denis Villeneuve has been confirmed for the director’s chair for the next Bond movie, although his work on the Dune franchise will keep Bond away until 2028, according to reports. Villeneuve will be joined in a dream partnership by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight as the man behind the script for the 26th Bond movie. Although we’re still some time away, Knight has already promised a “stronger and bolder” story than Bond fans have seen before.
So we know who the big names are behind the scenes, but who will be starring in front of the camera? Thus far, we’re not much closer to finding out the identity of the new 007, although Eternity star Callum Turner remains a favorite as Amazon apparently searches for a younger actor to take on the role. Whatever the outcome, the budding young hopeful taking over the role will indeed have to walk in the shoes of several Hollywood icons. Of all the many names to have played 007, it’s impossible to look past the first as one of the best.
Sean Connery‘s Bond movies are the stuff of legend, although the actor also appeared in several other iconic action movies, one of which is currently a streaming hit 30 years after its release. The movie in question is 1996’s The Rock (not to be confused with Dwayne Johnson), directed by Michael Bay before he tackled some of the biggest Hollywood franchises. At the time of writing, The Rock is one of the ten most-streamed movies on Tubi in the U.S., a list currently topped by a pair of Predator movies.
Who Else Starred in ‘The Rock’?
It wasn’t just the burgeoning talent of Bay and the veteran instincts of Connery that helped The Rock become a quintessential ’90s action classic; the movie also featured a selection of other famous names. The star-studded ensemble also includes Nicolas Cage as Stanley Goodspeed, Ed Harris as General Hummel, David Morse as Major Baxter, Michael Biehn as Commander Anderson, and William Forsythe as Special Agent Paxton.
The Rock is a streaming hit on Tubi. Stay tuned to Collider for the latest streaming stories.

Not every animated series from the 1970s appeals to audiences in the 2020s, but these 10 should still capture your attention
Editor’s note: The below mentions sexual assault and domestic abuse.
Margaret Atwood may be best known for her seminal novel The Handmaid’s Tale, but the prolific writer has six decades’ worth of published material under her belt. Given that repertoire, her works haven’t been brought to screen as often as one would expect. In a fun twist of fate, the same year that Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale debuted to widespread acclaim, a correspondingly visceral adaptation of Atwood’s 1996 book hit Netflix.
Directed by Mary Harron (American Psycho) and written by Sarah Polley (Women Talking), the Canadian miniseries Alias Grace fictionalizes the life of Grace Marks (Sarah Gadon), a notoriously controversial historical figure. Harron and Polley magnify Atwood’s scathing analysis into an enthralling psychological thriller ripe with impeccable suspense, lush subtlety, and fraught curiosity.
What Is ‘Alias Grace’ About?
In 1843, 16-year-old Irish immigrant Grace Marks and her fellow servant, James McDermott (Kerr Logan), were convicted of murdering their wealthy Canadian employer, Thomas Kinnear (Paul Gross), and his housekeeper-slash-lover, Nancy Montgomery (Anna Paquin). McDermott was executed, but the court commuted Grace’s death sentence to life in prison. Three decades later, Grace received a formal pardon and vanished like smoke in the wind.
Debate still ripples over whether Grace was an accessory in McDermott’s vicious double homicide, an active perpetrator, or an unaware bystander McDermott kidnapped and framed as a scheming mastermind. Atwood’s creative liberties embrace the true crime case’s turbulent economic backdrop and the symbolic potential behind the verdict’s unsettling ambiguity. Alias Grace offers no definitive answers; even the details Grace describes as indisputable fact could be fabricated.
Regardless, the events inform the outlook of this “celebrated murderess” — and her father’s childhood abuse, her mother’s traumatic death, and her younger siblings depending upon her as a financial provider, strike too close to home to suspend disbelief. Grace’s employers enjoy their comforts while her sore, sweaty muscles scrub floors, any complaints locked behind her closed teeth. Grace repeats such obedience during her sanatorium days and earns special privileges for behaving as composed and articulate as decorum dictates.
‘Alias Grace’ Combines History, Speculation, and Biting Critique
Underneath Grace’s studiously neutral expressions, however, lies astute intelligence and seething resentment. Household after household, she witnesses how predatory men corner, assault, and kill women in a casual and remorseless cycle. One privileged son sweeps Grace’s only friend, the rebellious Mary Whitney (Rebecca Liddiard), off her feet. Once she’s pregnant, he abandons her. Desperate, knowing her tarnished reputation is an unmarried worker’s death sentence, Mary risks an illegal abortion and dies from mutilation and blood loss. Grace comprehends the agonizing rhythm of her Puritanical world — which some women uphold for their own security or superiority — long before it commodifies her into a sensationalized, malleable blank slate upon which to project patriarchal misogyny.
Netflix’s 6-Part ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ Replacement Is an Instant Streaming Hit
Molly Windsor leads the cast.
Regardless of Grace’s guilt or innocence, every reporter, judge, and civilian twists her testimony to suit their contradictory agendas. For some, she’s a propaganda cautionary tale: a sinful seductress who violated her subservient role. Those campaigning for her exoneration paint her as a guileless and pure victim. Bored socialites gawk because they crave thrilling entertainment. As for her mental and physical distress, consider yourself unsurprised that the doctors and penitentiary wards who brutally torture and rape Grace dismiss her as hysterical — the 19th century’s favorite catch-all diagnosis for women whose pain and fury defy an oppressive system.
Harron and Polley contrast how Victorian restraints warp Grace into a cultural lightning rod with the subversive opening image of her staring at her reflection. Grace’s identity as a working-class immigrant teenager navigating layered prejudices (class, gender, religion, xenophobia) illuminates why she’s offered up like a buffet feast. Everyone wants to pin this intriguing anomaly on their walls like a display insect. Yet Grace denies anyone access to her true self; they have no right to her last unmarred, private fragment. Even Grace’s unreliable narration invites the audience in yet holds them at a distance, evading facts when it matters most. She remains a self-contained mystery as painstakingly patchwork as Atwood’s quilt motif.
‘Alias Grace’ Is an Enthralling and Elusive Tragedy
If Grace indeed got away with murder, was the act born of cruelty or because she saw violence as the only way to express resistance? Was she akin to the trapped animal that gnaws its leg off to escape — her survival instincts and cumulative rage misdirected? Either disquieting way, Atwood’s interpretation manipulates psychiatrist Simon Jordan (Edward Holcroft). Although he presumes himself kind, he falls for his preconceived, constructed fantasy of a delicate creature who needs white-knight protection, and his sexual violence still explodes like an inevitable bomb. Jordan’s infatuated lust is another form of imprisonment; Grace’s sly rejection is the best justice she can seize.
Polley’s reverence for Atwood’s lyrical prose and resonant critiques shines through her superb translation. Harron’s adept hand for violence and satire lends itself to a psychological miasma — the laser-focused close-ups, the dread permeating like walls closing in. Piece by piece, the mesmerizing Gadon embodies a woman with manifold depth. Her straight-backed, opaque poise and piercing, soulful eyes attest to a subjugated child who’s never had the luxury of naivety, as well as a discerning, lonely adult whose safety depends upon satisfying performative mandates. All this said, one does wish for a multifaceted tableau that isn’t as white-centric. Even so, Alias Grace haunts viewers like the hushed murmurs of “murderess” trail Grace’s steps.

Joy Behar alleges “Hiding Out ”director made her cry on set of Jon Cryer movie: 'Wasn't nice to me'
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/The-View-Hiding-Out-050126-ac1f478fe77e45c98572f60a56bdf7ba.jpg)
Cryer appeared Friday on “The View,” where Behar recalled working with him on the 1987 movie directed by Bob Giraldi.
Dancing With the Stars pro Sasha Farber has had a busy few years in the romance department.
The dancer has been linked to three high-profile women: longtime love and fellow DWTS pro Emma Slater, Bachelorette alum Jenn Tran and Pretty Little Liars star Janel Parrish.
“I hate dating. But it takes like a sec, you got to meet the person. There’s a lot that goes into when you want to find someone special,” Farber said on the “Casual Chaos” podcast in January 2026, noting that DWTS has a history of showmances turning into real relationships. “[On the show], you’re just thrown in. ‘Let’s go. Hi, nice to meet you. OK, we are going to rub hips. We are going to dip. We are going to do this. I want to get in your face here. You have to really look at me.’”
After Hallmark star Janel Parrish and estranged husband Chris Long separated, fans have wondered whether she sparked a romance with former Dancing With the Stars pro Sasha Farber. “She’s still got it @janelparrish 🔥,” Farber wrote via Instagram on April 9, 2026, sharing footage of the pair dancing together on a sidewalk. Parrish replied, “Thanks […]
Here’s a look at where each of Farbers’ relationships stands — and how they unfolded:
Emma Slater: From Co-Stars to Exes Who Stayed Close (2011-2024)
Farber and Slater met in 2009 and started dating in 2011. Three years in, they paused the romance but kept working together on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars.
In a December 2014 Glamour interview, the U.K. native opened up about their bond beyond a romantic relationship.
“It goes through moments, but I think the world of Sasha. I really do,” she said. “I wouldn’t have been so close to him for three years of my life. He’s just the best person. I don’t think we’re supposed to finish together. I think there are other people that might make us both individually happy, but I’m always going to be his best friend.”
The two reconnected in 2015 and Farber proposed on DWTS in October 2016. The couple wed in 2018. They split in February 2023 and finalized their divorce the following year.
Despite the breakup, Farber and Slater have stayed friendly. In a TikTok shared by Slater in March 2026, Farber mouthed, “Your ex-husband is so attractive,” and Slater responded, “But you’re my ex-husband.” After fans criticized the chummy dynamic, Slater fired back.
“If you can’t handle that exes can be mature and can be friends, I’m sending you love and positive vibes but I also know it’s not my problem to solve. Meant with love, I’ve just healed, moved on from that,” she wrote.
Jenn Tran: A ‘DWTS’ Romance That Quickly Fizzled (2024-2025)
After Tran’s engagement to Devin Strader collapsed following her season of The Bachelorette, she joined season 33 of DWTS and was paired with Farber. Romance rumors took off when Farber called Tran “babe” in a TikTok video.
Tran later credited Farber with helping her cope with the public fallout from her breakup.
“He kept reminding me that it’s the stuff that’s not online that really matters, It’s your friends and family who know you the best that really matters,” she told People in November 2024. “Right after the breakup, I was going through a lot of stuff being said online and stuff being spilled out, and I had to just turn my phone off.”
She added, “Sasha really helped ground me and tell me that it’s my friends and family who really matter at the end of the day and everything’s going to blow over on social media and just keep doing me because, at the end of the day, I only have myself, right?”
After Tran was eliminated in week 6, the two kept spending time together — and Tran admitted she was crashing on Farber’s couch. Us Weekly confirmed in December 2024 that the pair were officially dating.
The pair broke up by June 2025, when a source told Us Farber and Tran are “no longer seeing each other.” The insider added that Tran is “focusing hard on her studies” in PA school and “not letting anything else get in the way of her goals right now.”
Janel Parrish: A Parking Lot Dance Turns Into Something More (April 2025)
In a clip posted to Farber’s Instagram in April 2026, the Hallmark actress appeared alongside the dancer as the two danced in a parking lot.
“She’s still got it @janelparrish 🔥,” Farber captioned the video, which Parrish reshared alongside the caption, “When you ask @sashafarber1 to teach you a dance in the parking lot.”
Days later, Parrish confirmed her separation from husband Chris Long after eight years of marriage.
Parrish and Farber both previously appeared on season 19 of DWTS in 2014, when Parrish was partnered with pro Val Chmerkovskiy and Farber was part of the show’s troupe. Almost a decade later, Parrish and Farber hard-launched their romance in April 2026.

Forget ‘The Walking Dead’ — Prime Video’s 6-Part Forgotten Sci-Fi Is the Perfect Weekend Binge
The entertainment space has been flooded with haunting images of what a post-apocalypse might look like for years. From visceral big-screen entries like 28 Days Later and World War Z to television shows like The Walking Dead, audiences have become accustomed to the dire and urgent tone that these productions have associated with the end of civilization as we know it. And to be clear, these new techniques have been very effective in re-energizing a somewhat dormant genre at the turn of the century. Still, there is room in the space for other things. There is a limited series streaming on MGM+ that takes a different approach to The End of Days.
Earth Abides is based on George R. Stewart‘s sci-fi book of the same name and stars Alexander Ludwig as Ish and Jessica Frances Dukes as Emma, two survivors of a worldwide plague that has killed off 99% of humanity. What show creator and director Todd Komarnicki has done completely subverts the typical tropes of the genre as we have come to understand it in the last 25 years and instead inserts some hope and a nurturing environment that spans several decades and generations. If the long-running NBC hit show This Is Us and genre-defining AMC smash The Walking Dead were to have a lovechild, it would look a lot like Earth Abides.
Notably, the series was conceived as a limited series with its story fully contained in its current run, and there are no plans for a second season.
What Is ‘Earth Abides’ About?
When Ish comes to after being in a weeks-long coma from a venomous snake bite, he finds the world’s population has succumbed to a quickly spreading plague, and there are only a handful of people left alive (Yes, it does sound like Rick Grimes’s predicament in The Walking Dead or Jim in 28 Days Later). After a bad experience with survivors in Las Vegas and then several days on his own, he miraculously comes across Emma, and together, they fall in love and begin rebuilding with the little resources they have left.
They have children together at their San Lupo commune and, over many years, take in newcomers and form a commune with the intent of surviving and thriving in a new world they build together. The population of their new community begins to swell after they selectively allow new survivors to be a part of a new beginning. As much as Earth Abides works to keep the show’s mood different from the sadness and melancholy of other post-apocalyptic entries, it doesn’t pretend that challenges don’t exist.
‘Earth Abides’ Accentuates the Positives, but Also Addresses the Negatives of Starting Over
Earth Abides is unique in focusing primarily on the rewarding aspects of rebuilding civilization, including raising a family free from social distortion and forming lifelong friendships with like-minded survivors. It is an example of what can happen if the humans remaining after a cataclysmic event unite for the mutual good of a new society instead of trying to conquer other groups, as seen in The Walking Dead and others, and hordes of flesh-eating zombies that have also become the post-apocalyptic threat du jour. But to be clear, it is far from all rainbows and gumdrops in a depleted and broken world, and not everyone will fall in line with the way Ish and Emma try to maintain peace and order at San Lupo.
There is still malfeasance among some of the survivors, which is consistent with human nature. The edge of Earth Abides comes from the tension created every time Ish and Emma are feeling out newcomers and their true motivations. For instance, in Episode 5, a newcomer named Charlie (Aaron Tveit) initially appears to be a Godsend as he is able to locate and successfully pull water from an underground well when they are running low. But after several weeks, he is revealed to be a rapist. Ish, Emma, and the senior elders of the commune members, including Jorge (Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll), Maurine (Elyse Levesque), Molly (Luisa D’Oliveira), and Ezra (Birkett Turton), decide that the penalty for what he has done is death. Ish savagely beats him with a hammer. Despite an overarching theme of love and kindness, the ugliness of men isn’t ignored or underplayed; the world is still savage, but that doesn’t mean it’s completely hopeless.
Earth Abides is available to stream on MGM+ in the U.S.
