Summary

In the 4-part MGM+ series ‘Vanished,’ Alice relentlessly hunts her boyfriend Tom after his train disappearance, exposing secrets and lies.
Alice and Hélène form a fierce, intimate friendship that becomes the show’s emotional core.
Tom shatters trust, leaving Alice to decide whether she can overcome and forgive his betrayal.

In the MGM+ original series Vanished, Alice (Kaley Cuoco) is determined to uncover what happened to her boyfriend Tom (Sam Claflin), after he disappeared aboard a train to the south of France. The couple’s trip to spend some much-needed time together in Paris turns dark when the doctor involved in humanitarian work seemingly vanishes, leaving behind his very confused archaeologist girlfriend. Uncovering shocking secrets that put her in danger don’t stop Alice from wanting to know the truth, as she realizes the man she thought she loved, she never really knew at all.

Collider recently got the opportunity to chat one-on-one with Cuoco about how her love of true crime helped draw her to this series, what she found most interesting about Alice, the dynamic between Alice and Tom, the nightmare of having someone you love just disappear, the special bond that Alice forms with Hélène (Karin Viard), the frustration in realizing that you sometimes you really just don’t know a person no matter how well you think you do, the moment Alice has decided that she’s had enough, Cuoco’s own input into the “Dear Tom” note, and whether there could be another season. She also discussed her upcoming HBO comedy series Kansas City Star and revealed why she’s so excited about it.

As a Big True-Crime Fan, Kaley Cuoco Understands Her ‘Vanished’ Character’s Drive for Answers

“I would want to know what happened.”

Collider: The characters that I’ve talked to you about previously, in The Flight Attendant, Role Play, and Based on a True Story, have all had other things going on with them than what it seems on the surface. And with Vanished, things are happening to Alice more than they’re happening because of her. As an EP on this, were there things that you wanted this character to be and qualities you wanted her to have that you thought would make her interesting to explore?

KALEY CUOCO: Yeah. I keep thinking, actually, because some people are saying, “Well, if you love The Flight Attendant, I think you’ll love this,” with Cassie in The Flight Attendant, so much was happening to her because of her. She was an unreliable narrator. She was an absolute disaster. A disaster with a heart of gold. Things happened a lot because of her behavior. And I feel like with Alice, she’s actually a pretty grounded person. She has her life together. She’s very organized. She loves her career. Her boyfriend and her have a really specific lifestyle. They meet in these different places, they travel the world, they have no kids, they just have this really cool lifestyle. She has a great career. She’s organized as hell. And so, I think that made it even more terrifying that she was so duped by this man, even though, possibly, you can look at it like he was doing this for technically the greater good.

She’s a step ahead of everybody. Cassie was always a step behind, and Alice is a step ahead. I think that’s even more terrifying when you’ve got your shit together, and you still have this big moment of betrayal. How do you move forward? How do you trust again? Is your curiosity so intense that you have to figure out what happened? I asked myself this through the whole process. I kept thinking, “God, if this happened to me, would I crumble and just get a flight home? Would I just run home?” But I’m so obsessed with true crime and answers that I think I would probably stay. I wouldn’t almost get myself killed, but I would want to know what happened. God forbid, what if something really did happen to him? How would you forgive yourself? There was a lot of push and pull that I thought was an interesting self-reflection on what I would do if I was in this situation.

To jump right into spoilers, Tom feels like a tricky character because this is a guy who’s been with Alice for years and she’s never suspected anything. So, what made Sam Claflin the right actor for Tom?

CUOCO: Well, two parts [to that]. Because of their lifestyle, they were really never together for long periods of time. They’ve been together for years and years. We know that they both have very global jobs, or careers. They meet up in these amazing countries. They have these two-week whirlwinds, and they separate again. It was believable that maybe he could be doing something totally different than what he’s telling her. What’s so lovely about Sam is that he’s so charming and endearing and authentic and just lovely. And then, he can play the, “Wait a minute, is there something else going on here?”

I like, with the flashbacks, that they start out with such rose-colored glasses and, as time goes on, they start to shift for her where she’s like, “Wait a minute, maybe I’m not remembering this the way that [it happened].” We’ve all done that. We’ve all romanticized so many different things and realized, “Oh, God, maybe that’s not exactly what it was.” So, he was perfect for this because he’s so lovable, and you believe that he wants to be with this woman, and he’s in this relationship. But there’s an edge there, and maybe he is lying. And how is he getting away with this? You see why maybe she never suspected anything, because he’s really innocent on the surface, and he’s doing all this good, saving children and [being] this global ambassador. You want to believe that that’s this wonderful trait that this man has.

I thought it was really interesting to have him disappear on a train while he’s taking a phone call while they’re in between stations. It makes a situation that already seems unbelievable that much more difficult to understand and explain. Do you feel like that really helped add to the feeling of desperation and panic since she’s essentially trapped on this train? She can’t even go out and look for him.

CUOCO: It’s literally my worst nightmare. This is my favorite part of the show, to literally wake up from a nap on the train, you look over, and your boyfriend’s gone. Okay, maybe he’s in the bathroom. Okay, maybe he’s walking around. You’re on a train, [which is] a moving vehicle. Where did this man go? It’s terrifying. Unless he magically disappeared, how the hell did he get off this train? It’s a terrifying thought. She’s in a country she doesn’t know, and he’s literally gone. That’s horrifying. She innocently goes to the police, and then they start to look at her weirdly. Who can she trust? Now she’s thinking, “Oh, my God, what if they blame me for something?” They know, deep down, she’s not a part of this, but is she getting framed? She has no one there to protect her. It’s terrifying.

And I think with this much true crime as I watch, and with as many podcasts and documentaries as I’ve seen of people making absolutely insane decisions, that’s why this intrigued me. I was like, “Hell, yeah, this could happen. This could happen.” Would you stay? Would you try and figure it out? Would you go back? When I was reading the end, for a moment, I was like, “Oh, my God, are they really writing this, that she’s going to get back with him?” And then, obviously, she doesn’t. It was like, “I don’t think I could ever trust this man again.” There’s no way, even if he’s like, “I had to do this.” It’s like, “You couldn’t have told me anything? Maybe something small? Come on!”

Kaley Cuoco Sees the Friendship Between Alice and Hélène As the Real Love Story of ‘Vanished’

“That friendship was very special.”

In the first episode, Alice meets Hélène, who offers to help her. By episode two, we learn somehow she knows more than she’s let on. They’re also a lot more alike than either one of them realized. What was it like to figure that relationship out? What did you most enjoy about exploring that dynamic? I thought it was such an interesting pairing that we don’t really get to see.

CUOCO: Yeah, it was. I actually think that was the love story of this story, this friendship. When she’s on the train and Hélène actually starts interpreting for her, Alice grasps onto her because she’s the only person that’s helping. She’s the only person that’s getting in the middle. Then, she sees her again, and it’s like, “Okay, it’s familiar. This woman’s trying to help me.” But now, you’re thinking, “Is she overstepping? This is now feeling weird.” And then, she runs into her again, and it’s a little suspect, but she has no one else to turn to and this woman seems to have information. She’s also extremely chaotic, so she’s like, “How do I trust her?” But I actually love their friendship. And obviously, as time goes on, Alice doesn’t have anyone else but this woman, and she has to put her trust in her. She has to be like, “Okay, this is the only person I have here. I’m totally screwed.” And they end up forming this really interesting, really sweet relationship where they truly help each other out. I love how they become friends in the end. I truly think that was actually the love story that we really wanted to happen. That friendship was very special.

There’s that moment when Alice finally catches up with Tom, and he’s just so cold to her and says, “Sorry, but we’re over.” At that point, why do you think she didn’t just completely lay into him? Did you have conversations about what that reaction would be?

CUOCO: Yes, we did. There were parts of me that [were], just like you said, “How do you not completely lose your absolute mind in that moment? How are you not attacking him and screaming at him?” Remember, she knows that there are people watching her and there are police that are actually still following her. They’ve had their eyes on her, whether they’re framing her or not. If she starts to lose her mind in this public place, it’s going to be done for. She has to be very careful. I also think a betrayal of that deep, you go one of two ways. You go crazy and absolutely lose your mind, or you’re literally speechless and you’re caught off guard so poorly that you can’t even cry. It’s such a shock. You almost seem like you’re in a dream and it’s not real.

So, it was, “Okay, she’s not going to lose her mind in front of all these people.” There are police there. They’re eyeing her. She already was running through the whole city, which is not a big place, by the way. She’s starting to already get known in this place. She had to keep her cool for a second because, even later, she kept thinking, “That’s not him. Something is going on. Something isn’t right.” And her gut was correct. It wasn’t just someone cheating on her or someone who’s left. It’s like, “This isn’t the person that I knew. This is a totally different person. What happened?”

‘Vanished’ Review: Kaley Cuoco and Sam Claflin’s Gripping Thriller Miniseries Builds to a Confusing Ending

‘Vanished’ cleverly subverts thriller clichés, but is the final revelation a satisfying payoff or a frustrating letdown?

We learn that he isn’t the villain that we’re thinking he could be and that he’s actually Interpol, even though he has done some things that he probably shouldn’t have done. Do you think that at least helps Alice feel like her internal judge of character wasn’t as broken as she thought it was?

CUOCO: Yes, I think that would comfort anyone to know, “Oh, my God, he didn’t just leave me,” and there was a reason. At the same time, it’s too big. You can’t come back from this. I just don’t think you can come back from this at all. It’s too large. It’s too intense. Also, he didn’t just leave her on vacation. She almost dies multiple times. She’s getting kidnaped. She’s getting beat up. She’s fighting people. She doesn’t even know what she’s doing, and she’s totally left to fend for herself. If he was as high up as he said, couldn’t he have sent someone? Couldn’t he do anything to make sure she was okay? He really left her. And to me, there’s no going back from there.

That’s why it’s so interesting to me that there is that moment of the two of them being together. They have sex again one last time before she leaves. Do you think she went into that knowing she was going to leave, or do you think she made that decision after that moment?

CUOCO: I went back and forth with what I thought about that. There are parts of me that like thinking she planned it all along, and she was like, “I’m going to totally mess with him, and I’m leaving him and that’s it.” Another part of me understands the emotional turmoil. Maybe there was a part of her that thought, “Oh, my God, he does love me. I can get past this.” And then, they have this moment together, and she’s like, “No, I can’t get past this,” and it was more of a decision later.

I understand both. The amount of true crime I’ve watched and watched the decisions people have made in these dire situations going, “I don’t know why they did that.” Stress and this horrible circumstance make you do some wild stuff, so I can believe either way. I think she loved him tremendously, and she was holding onto this hope that maybe she could get past this, but she realized very quickly that she couldn’t.

Kaley Cuoco Left Her Own Mark on the “Dear Tom” Letter Alice Writes in the Finale of ‘Vanished’

“He could have made any better decision that would have made this easier on her, and he didn’t.

I love the little dig of her leaving behind this note for him that says, “Dear Tom, at least I had the good manners to leave you a fucking note.” That was really a particularly perfect touch. Was that something that was always there? Was it always in the script? Was it always part of the character? Was that something that got added later?

CUOCO: The note was always there. I added the “fucking.” I added that part in because it’s so simple. It’s like, “You could have done that for me. You could have done anything to make me know, ‘Okay, there’s a reason for this,’ instead of leaving me, literally, ready to die.” He could have done anything. He could have made any better decision that would have made this easier on her, and he didn’t. To me, that’s not true love.

Clearly, he only needed one sentence. That one sentence conveyed everything.

CUOCO: That’s it! He could have written it. I know! There are so many things he could have done that he didn’t. I liked that little stamp on the end, and her going home and being like, “Okay, I can leave now knowing I did everything I could and this is it.”

Kaley Cuoco has been gracing our screens for longer than you think!

Would you like to play this character again? Do you think it would be challenging to figure out where to take her story next, or do you think there’s a way you could have her team up with Hélène and stop bad guys all over the world? Because I would watch that.

CUOCO: Anything can happen. I think this is definitely, probably tied up in a bow. It was always meant to just be this. But TV is weird, man. Different things get picked up later. Who knows? I loved the experience, I loved the character, and I loved the people I worked with. So, you just really never know what can happen.

Even though Alice leaves Tom behind, do you think that or do you at least hope that she stayed in touch with Hélène?

CUOCO: Yes. If I could see their future, they are lifers. They are lifelong friends. I think they laugh. I think they talk all the time. I think they’ve become really, really close. I like where their story ended up.

Kaley Cuoco Is Excited To Start Shooting Her Upcoming HBO Comedy Series, ‘Kansas City Star’

It seems like you’re having so much fun with the characters that you’re playing and the stories that you’re telling. You’re getting to do so much. They’re all mixed genre. Do you know what you’re going to be shooting next? You already have something lined up? Are you thinking about what you could create for yourself next?

CUOCO: Definitely next, and I’m really looking forward to it, I have a show with the Hacks team, called Kansas City Star, with HBO, and we’re hoping to start shooting that hopefully by the end of this year, if not the beginning of ‘27. It definitely takes me back to my roots of just pure, ridiculous, make-fun-of-myself comedy with an amazing comedic team, with Paul [W. Downs], Lucia [Aniello], and Jen [Statsky], the trifecta of brilliance behind Hacks. The storyline for Kansas City Star happened from something that happened to me, which was a jumping off point. Eventually, I’ll get to talk about it. That’s going to bring me back to all the stuff that I love, just pure, simple, don’t-take-yourself-too-seriously comedy.

Influencer Bianca Dias Dies Days After Cosmetic Surgery Procedure

Published

Influencer Bianca Dias has died days after undergoing a cosmetic surgery procedure.

The Brazilian content creator died on Thursday, February 19, according to her loved ones. Dias, who was known for documenting her experience as a model, most recently shared content from a vacation in London in December 2025. Those posts appeared to be her last activity on social media.

Dias’ friend Jeff Carlos took to Instagram to share news of her death, writing, “Death is nothing at all. Our bond has not been broken.”

Patrícia Ganden, who is also a social media creator, shared a tribute for Dias.

“I just know that we had beautiful moments, incredible conversations, may God comfort the family,” she wrote via Instagram after news broke of Dias’ death. “I will remember with much affection and pride of you.”

Dias’ pal Giovanna Borges confirmed that she had recently undergone cosmetic surgery and had initially been “in recovery” at home, adding, “She had a pulmonary clot, had 2 seizures, and when she arrived at the hospital, she was no longer alive.”

Borges continued: “I want to thank the countless messages, thank you all who took the time to worry and send messages, if you can pray for the family regardless of religion, I will be extremely grateful! 🤍.”

A wake was held for Dias on Friday, February 20, in São Paulo, Brazil.

Dias’ death comes after social media paid tribute to several influencers who have died in 2026. Earlier this month, Damiano Alberti died after a three-year battle with cancer.

“A part of us has flown away forever,” his family wrote via Instagram. “Damiano is free from everything he went through.” The statement continued, “Thank you for always supporting and respecting him; he loved his whole community and was proud of what he managed to build.”

Jéssica Daugirdas died one month prior at age 35 after being hospitalized with sepsis amid her colorectal cancer battle. “It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Jessica,” her family wrote in a statement via Instagram. “God, in His infinite wisdom, has taken our warrior to be with Him, after she fought bravely until the end, with strength, faith and courage.”

The statement continued: “In this time of grief, we unite in prayer so that the Lord may comfort the hearts of all family and friends, and that the peace of Christ may sustain each one.”

That same month, Esther Thomas died after undergoing surgery.

“Greetings … We the family of Esther Thomas [A.K.A Sunshine] with pain in our heart we regret to announce the sudden demise of our beloved sister and daughter Esther Thomas who suddenly passed away on the 9th of January 2026 after an unsuccessful surgery,” read a statement shared via Thomas’ Instagram. “She had [a] fibroid and was operated on so she couldn’t make it so we are trying to put things in place so we could put her to rest.”

Chris Hemsworth Finally Understands Why Everyone Hates His Worst Movie

Published

By Chris Snellgrove
| Published 1 hour ago

Recently, Marvel icon Chris Hemsworth appeared on Smartless, a podcast hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett. They talked about many topics, and the conversation inevitably shifted to Marvel movies. At this point, I honestly expected the Thor actor to do some shameless advertising about how good these films are, essentially turning his appearance into a PR stunt for the MCU.

To my surprise, though, he got very frank about his absolute worst Marvel movie: Thor: Love and Thunder. In looking back on this disappointing film, Hemsworth admitted that it was “kind of like a Monty Python sketch” and “we sort of took the piss probably a little too much.” Thor was once one of the most serious heroes in the MCU, and the actor admitted that Love and Thunder left the fandom asking a very blunt question about his godly warrior: “Why is he a goofball?”

A Fumbling Franchise Pivots

It would be one thing if Thor: Love and Thunder were the first Thor film to be very silly. However, that happened earlier in Thor: Ragnarok, an openly comedic film that was a very deliberate tonal shift for the entire franchise. Such a picot was considered necessary because the previous film, Thor: The Dark World, was a critical stinker that many fans consider the worst entry in the entire MCU.

Director Taika Waititi turned Thor: Ragnarok into a kind of cosmic road-trip buddy comedy, and the film became a critical and commercial hit. Chris Hemsworth noted that the movie offered “quite a twist” on what audiences were expecting, thanks in large part to “Taika’s tone.” He noted that the fandom found the movie “fun” specifically because of the pivot to comedy: “there was a huge…appreciation for the shift.”

Too Much Of A Good Thing

In retrospect, Hemsworth believes that Thor: Love and Thunder failed because it leaned too far into comedy, making it feel more “like a Monty Python sketch” than a traditional superhero film. He pointed out that there was “backlash” to returning director Taika Waititi’s humor, with audiences wondering why Thor had become such a “goofball.” This is quite fair, honestly: Ragnarok allowed Hemsworth to show off his considerable comedic chops, but in Love and Thunder, he went from cracking jokes to being a joke.

On paper, Waititi was just giving fans more of the zany humor that they appreciated so much in Ragnarok. But it’s genuinely hard to make a follow-up to a good comedy, which is why so many sequels (like Caddyshack II and Blues Brothers 2000) to hilarious movies are downright terrible. This sequel’s humor was far inferior to Ragnarok, and even when the comedy in Thor: Love and Thunder did work, it felt bizarrely out of place given the dark storylines driving the film.

Were We Supposed To Laugh Or Cry?

Thor: Love and Thunder had some broad comedy beats that fell flat, including those stupid screaming goats. But if you rewatch the movie, more of the jokes land than you likely remember. The essential problem with this movie was that the tonal shifts between comedic and dramatic moments were so severe that they gave you whiplash!

The Big Bad of the movie is motivated to kill all deities in the universe after his daughter starves to death, and he discovers the god he so fervently worships just doesn’t care. Meanwhile, Jane Foster is dying of cancer, and every time she transforms into Thor, it makes her cancer worse. But she is willing to court death itself to save the universe from Gorr, a self-proclaimed God Butcher seeking justice for the little girl he loved more than anything else.

These are intense plots, and they are that much more impactful because Christian Bale and Natalie Portman give such astounding performances. In another director’s hands, this would have been a recipe for a heartbreaking, dramatic film that takes more cues from the Jason Aaron Thor comics they are based on. But Taika Waititi tried to tug on our heartstrings and make us laugh all at once, resulting in a movie that was disjointed at its best and unhinged at its worst.

To Be Or Not To Be (Funny)

The first two Thor movies were downright Shakespearean, with Thor taking himself very seriously. The second two were comedic, with audiences generally preferring Ragnarok and hating Love and Thunder. In retrospect, these movies have a clear pattern: every other Thor film has been a stinker, but the odd-numbered ones are good.

Now, Marvel is at a crossroads and must decide whether to continue making Thor the class clown of the Avengers or return him to his more grounded roots. We’ll know what they’ve decided when Avengers: Doomsday finally hits theaters later this year. Here’s hoping that the MCU stops “taking the piss” (to borrow Hemsworth’s blunt Aussie slang) and helps fans start believing in this god once again.

Kris Jenner Claims Ray J ‘Publicly Terrorizing’ Kim Kardashian, Says He Caused ‘Deep Pain’

Kris Jenner
Slams Ray J For ‘Publicly Terrorizing’ Kim

Published
February 23, 2026
10:50 AM PST

Kris Jenner says Ray J has been making her daughter Kim Kardashian’s life hell for the past two decades — and now she wants him held accountable, TMZ has learned.

The famous momager filed a declaration in her ongoing defamation case against Ray J, detailing her feelings about him. Kris claims she sued her daughter’s ex-boyfriend after he made “outrageous and untrue” allegations that Kris and Kim were being investigated by the Feds.

Kris said she has never been accused or charged with a crime. “To say that my daughter and I are being pursued for doing something worse than Sean “Diddy” Combs, is a horrific lie,” Kris writes in the declaration.

In her filing, Kris said Kim was with Ray J for a short period of time … saying “[o]ver the past two decades, I have had to watch [Ray J] publicly terrorize my daughter by continually talking, and lying, about her in the press to try and keep himself relevant.”

Kris said whenever Ray J talks about her family, it causes a “wave of attention” … adding that it is “extremely difficult to watch my daughter endure this cycle of scrutiny brought on by [Ray J].” She said Ray J’s recent statements “go too far” and caused her “significant emotional distress.”

“My family is of the utmost importance to me. It is deeply painful to watch my daughter experience the stress brought upon her by [Ray J], and her feelings of hopelessness and his harassment will never end.”

Kris said his allegations affected her too, saying she is “deeply angered, insulted and shaken by the accusations.” She claims she fears Ray J’s remarks will cause harm to her business, which she has worked decades to build.

In her declaration, Kris explained she has never sued anyone for defamation, but she decided to sue Ray J because his statements were “inexcusable and deeply painful.”

Kris said, “I took this step because I could no longer bear [Ray J’s] campaign of harassment against my daughter and my family or to watch my daughter cry again over the lies he’s painted about us.”

As TMZ first reported, Kim filed her own declaration claiming she was worried her dream of becoming a lawyer would be ruined by Ray J’s statements, too.

The transitional weather goes from one extreme to the other — and while I’m freezing in the morning, by the afternoon, I’m in a pool of my own sweat. After ten years of living through the moody New York City weather, I’ve finally curated the best transitional wardrobe for this finicky time of year.

Lightweight sweaters, angular jackets and trusty denim jeans have become the backbone of my closet. Not only do these pieces feel timeless, but they help me stay comfortable through the breezy spring season. If you want to emulate the most fashionable NYC girls, keep reading to discover my tried and true transitional fashion finds.

The Transitional Fashion Finds You Need From March to May

1. For the In Between Days: When the temperatures are chilly in the morning and extra warm by afternoon, I opt for a short-sleeved sweater. This one, with its etched flower design, is pretty on its own or layered with a light jacket.

2. Preppy Vibes: ‘90s-inspired short sleeve cardigans are going to be all the rage this spring — especially since Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette premiered — but to be honest, I’ve been wearing this buttery soft pick for years.

3. The Best Transitional Basic: My signature transitional piece is this lightweight wool blend tank. It beautifully hugs my body and looks professional without being stuffy. I wear it everywhere!

4. Fun Pockets: My latest denim finds — like this affordable silhouette — are much more fun than styles from years past, thanks to fun patchwork pockets, wide waistbands and a slightly flared hem.

5. Go Light: I tend to store my dark wash denim away once March comes around in favor of lighter wash jeans. The hue of this wide-legged pair matches the refreshing springtime energy. Plus, they go with everything!

6. Pop of Color: Who says you can only wear blue denim? These ivy green Levi’s are an easy way to incorporate color into your transitional wardrobe. The wide-legged silhouette is also extremely flattering.

7. The Ultimate Midi: Want to look model tall? This ribbed midi dress elongates your frame, while the expertly placed back tie cinches your waist. This is something I’ll wear with sneakers, boots and even sandals as the weather gets warmer.

8. Denim Days: While most denim dresses are extra thick and form-fitting, this one is light and breezy with a feminine babydoll silhouette. I’ll be wearing this to brunch all the time.

9. Who Needs an Excuse? I live in dresses from the moment it becomes spring. This high-neck drop-waist design from Abercrombie has already become a wardrobe staple due to its versatility.

10. Upgraded Denim: Blue denim jackets might be classic, but this burnished brown pick adds depth to any outfit.

11. 21st Century Trench: Long, timeless trench coats have their time and place. However, the NYC girls are obsessed with cropped trench coats, and I can’t deny they look tres chic!

12. Bye Bye Chill! On those random cold spring days, I have a short wool-blend coat on hand. This sharply-tailored one from Abercrombie is less bulky than a long jacket and a bit boxy for that model-off-duty look.

13. Suede Baby: The one thing I’m dying to add to my transitional closet is a utilitarian suede coat. All the cool girls wore it last season, and I know the style is going to be even more popular this year.
