Two weeks ago, the legendary Steven Spielberg finally returned to the sci-fi genre after almost a decade with Disclosure Day. Opening at #1 at the North American box office and turning in just shy of $100 million, the film surprised many and is a hit with critics and audiences, albeit not without its detractors. The film stars the likes of Emily Blunt (A Quiet Place), Josh O’Connor (Challengers), and Colin Firth (The King’s Speech), and is based on a story by Spielberg and a screenplay by David Koepp.

Likely to be one of the best sci-fi movies of this summer, Disclosure Day is yet another reminder of how the genre and the cinematic form go together like salt and pepper. Back in 2015, one of the best sci-fi movies of the decade was released courtesy of Alex Garland, defining the early era of A24 in the process. Starring the likes of Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac, and Alicia Vikander, Ex Machina earned just shy of $40 million at the box office against a reported budget of just $13 million, becoming the highest-grossing A24 movie of all time worldwide, although this record has since been broken several times.

Ex Machina became an instant hit with critics, with Collider’s Perri Nemiroff one of many who saw just how special this sci-fi gem was. In her review of the movie at SXSW in 2015, Nemiroff said, “Ex Machina is a strong feature and a huge achievement in a number of ways.” She added, “There’s a surprising amount of very effective humor courtesy of Isaac’s character, there’s an extremely riveting scenario at the core of the film, and there’s also tons of stunning visual work to admire as well.” Next month, you can try this masterpiece for free, as it becomes available to stream on Plex on July 1.

A Sci-Fi Movie Joined the Box Office Race This Weekend

Described as “a big science fiction epic film” by producer James Gunn, Milly Alcock’s debut as Supergirl flew onto global screens this weekend, after receiving a hugely mixed reception from critics. Based on Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, the 2021–2022 comic series by writer Tom King and artist Bilquis Evely, hope was high that all involved could follow on from the success of the David Corenswet-led Superman. Alas, if first reviews are to be believed, this will go down as one of the most underwhelming box office blockbusters this summer.

Ex Machina will be available to stream on Plex this July. Make sure to stay tuned to Collider for more streaming stories.

Angelina Jolie is reportedly ready for the next chapter in her years-long legal battle with ex-husband Brad Pitt. Despite Pitt recently scoring several courtroom victories in the ongoing dispute over their French winery, Château Miraval, a member of Angelina Jolie’s legal team says the actress remains confident as the case heads toward trial in 2027.

According to a statement provided to PEOPLE, Jolie’s attorney insisted that Pitt’s recent legal wins have not changed the core of the case. “Have made no impact on the merits of the case, and certainly has no impact on Ms. Jolie’s case,” the lawyer said.

Instead, Jolie is reportedly focused on bringing the lengthy dispute to a close. The attorney added that the actress is “looking forward to defeating the case at trial next year so that their family can finally focus their energies on healing and moving on.”

Brad Pitt Scores Key Legal Victory In Winery Battle

Jolie’s comments come after Pitt secured a significant win in the ongoing fight over Château Miraval, the French estate and winery the former couple once owned together.

A California appeals court recently ruled that Russian-born billionaire Yuri Shefler can be pulled further into the lawsuit after previously arguing he had little involvement in the 2021 deal that saw Jolie sell her stake in the winery. Pitt has long maintained that he and Jolie had an agreement that neither would sell their share without the other’s consent. Jolie has disputed that claim.

The actor originally filed suit in 2022, alleging that Jolie secretly sold her interest in the winery to Shefler’s company despite knowing he opposed the transaction. As part of the latest ruling, members of the Stoli Group, which is connected to the purchase, are expected to sit for depositions later this year.

Angelina Jolie Sold Her Share Of Château Miraval In 2021

The legal dispute stems from Jolie’s decision to sell her stake in Château Miraval to Tenute del Mondo, the wine division of the Stoli Group. Pitt has alleged that the sale damaged the business and brought in an unwanted partner.

“The wine business associated with the French château has also suffered, as the business has been stymied by the dispute between the château’s indirect shareholders and by Stoli’s repeated efforts to interfere with, and gain control of, the château,” the court docs claim.

Meanwhile, in previous court filings, Jolie’s legal team accused Pitt of waging a “vindictive war” over the winery and attempting to maintain control of the property. The estate has become one of the final unresolved issues between the former spouses following years of legal battles.

The Former Couple Finalized Their Divorce, But Not Their Legal War

Pitt and Jolie married in 2014 after years together and separated just two years later. Although the pair were declared legally single in 2019, negotiations surrounding their divorce continued for years. In late 2024, reports confirmed the former spouses had finally reached a divorce settlement, ending one of Hollywood’s longest-running divorce battles.

“More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,” Jolie’s lawyer James Simon told PEOPLE in a statement. “This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.”

However, their fight over Château Miraval remains ongoing.

The Couple’s Children Have Largely Distanced Themselves From Brad Pitt

The former couple share six children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox.

Their eldest son, Maddox, reportedly took steps in 2026 to formally remove “Pitt” from his legal name. Daughter Zahara also made headlines after filing paperwork earlier this year to drop the surname, while Shiloh legally removed “Pitt” from her hyphenated last name shortly after turning 18.

The couple’s youngest daughter, Vivienne, has also appeared to embrace her mother’s surname professionally, opting to be credited as “Vivienne Jolie” during her work on Broadway. Meanwhile, twins Knox and Vivienne have generally been viewed as being closer to Jolie amid the family’s ongoing tensions.

Pax is reportedly the only one of the former couple’s children who still maintains some contact with members of Pitt’s extended family and continues to use the double surname.

More than 30 years after Nicole Brown Simpson‘s murder shocked the nation, a man who once loved her is shedding new light on what he claims many people already knew about O.J. Simpson behind closed doors. Joseph Perrulli, who dated Nicole in 1992 following her separation from O.J., is opening up about his relationship with Nicole in a new book, claiming he witnessed the lasting fear she lived with amid allegations of abuse involving O.J. Simpson.

Joseph Perrulli recently reflected on their relationship and claimed the former NFL star’s alleged abuse was widely known throughout Hollywood. “I had people in the [movie] industry telling me about, you know, informing me about his abuse, so I knew,” Perrulli told Page Six.

According to Perrulli, there was a sense that few people were willing or able to challenge Simpson at the height of his fame. “We were all powerless,” he explained. “He was still a spokesperson for a very big company [Hertz], a rental car company, and he was still a sportscaster. So, you know, everybody was powerless, and it seemed like he could do what he wanted. And he did.”

Perrulli claimed Nicole confided in him about the violence she allegedly experienced during her relationship with Simpson. According to the businessman, Nicole told him she feared for her safety after being beaten so severely by her ex-husband.

The pair began dating after Nicole’s split from Simpson, whom she married in 1985 and with whom she had two children: daughter Sydney and son Justin. Although Nicole and O.J. divorced in 1992, their relationship remained complicated, and they later reconciled.

Perrulli said he was deeply in love with Nicole but became increasingly alarmed by Simpson’s behavior during their relationship.

A Disturbing Dream Marked The End Of Their Relationship

Among the experiences Perrulli says convinced him to step away from the relationship were allegations that Simpson monitored him and Nicole while they spent time together. He claimed he learned that the former football star had watched them at Nicole’s Brentwood home and had even followed them while they were jogging. Still, Perrulli said the defining moment came in the form of a disturbing dream.

According to his account, he dreamed that he and Nicole were driving together when their vehicle plunged off a cliff, killing them both. The following morning, he gathered keepsakes from their relationship, placed them in a briefcase, hid it, and began distancing himself from Nicole. Despite his feelings for her, he said he felt he had no other choice.

Their Final Meeting Happened Months Before Nicole’s Death

Perrulli said the last time he saw Nicole was during the Christmas season in 1993 at a holiday gathering hosted by the Jenner family. “She wanted to be friends,” Perrulli explained. “It was very difficult to be friends with her when I was in love with her, trying to maintain a platonic relationship like that.”

The reunion was especially uncomfortable because Nicole attended with Simpson. Still, Perrulli believed they would eventually reconnect. “I would see her again. I would apologize, but I got the phone call six months later that she’d been murdered.”

Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman were killed outside her Los Angeles home in June 1994.

O.J. Simpson’s Legacy Remains Tied To The Case

The former Buffalo Bills star was arrested and charged with the murders, but was acquitted in the highly publicized criminal trial in 1995. A year later, a civil jury found Simpson liable for the deaths.

Long before Nicole’s murder, police had responded to multiple domestic violence incidents involving the couple. During a 1989 incident, Nicole reportedly told officers she feared Simpson was going to kill her. Simpson later pleaded no contest to spousal abuse.

He died in 2024 at the age of 76.

Why Joseph Perrulli Decided To Tell His Story

Perrulli has now chronicled his relationship with Nicole in a book titled “The Forgotten Briefcase.” He said he never intended to write about their time together, but changed his mind after rediscovering the briefcase in 2024.

“I spent close to four hours on the stairs rediscovering this woman and and and realizing who she was,” he shared. “All these little mementos. I’d say they humanized her. She was a victim. And because of the way we broke things off, I. I ignored how much I loved her.”

For Perrulli, the memories ultimately inspired him to revisit a chapter of his life that ended in tragedy and to share a side of Nicole Brown Simpson that he believes the public never truly knew.

‘Love Island USA’ Casa Amor Recoupling Sparks Heated Confrontations

On Friday, June 27, ‘Love Island USA’ had one of its most explosive moments of the season thus far. Friday’s episode marked the end of Casa Amor, giving Islanders the opportunity to either remain loyal to their original partners or recouple with someone new after days of exploring new relationships.

One of the night’s biggest moments came when Aniya chose to remain loyal to KC, only for him to return to the villa alongside Casa Amor bombshell Tiera. After the recoupling, KC explained that his decision was about “choosing himself,” a statement that quickly fueled tension throughout the villa. The emotional moment prompted several of the women in the villa to rally behind Aniya. As emotions ran high, a heated exchange between Trinity and Tiera quickly unfolded, leaving viewers stunned. The confrontation spread across social media, with many users joking that the dating series had started to resemble an episode of ‘Baddies’.

Marsai Martin Shares Her Thoughts On The Explosive Episode

As conversations surrounding KC and Aniya’s relationship continued online, viewers remained split over whether KC made the right decision. Some fans argued that KC had every right to explore new connections during Casa Amor and return with the person he felt was the better match. Others believed he misled Aniya throughout the experience and unfairly left her single and vulnerable during one of the villa’s most emotional moments. Actress Marsai Martin also joined the online discussion sharing her thoughts on her Instagram Story, writing, “@loveislandusa y’all got me defending MEN. I’m annoyed 😭”

Social Media Weighs In

Marsai Martin’s post quickly circulated online, with fans debating whether they agreed with her perspective on the episode over in The Shade Room Teens comment section.

Instagram user @josephhamir wrote, “Marsai…you’re losing me bro wait a minute 😭 Are we all watching the same show??? Like are some of y’all genuinely watching with your ears closed half the time KC is not in the right 😂 At the end of the day Trinity deserved to say her peace bc he had so much to say about her and Bryce, yea more licks for you KC.”

Another Instagram user @nivsiaq wrote, “There’s nothing wrong with KC exploring but how he went about it is wildd.”

While Instagram user @kvnnedydasia wrote, “So… what he said about Aniya was all okay? as if the girls wasn’t gonna attack him after they all heard it?”

Instagram user @drakelyn0 wrote, “Close your ears then. Matter fact just don’t tune in 😭 titi did the absolute most! Then her laughing when Aniya went to cry solidified everything.”

Another Instagram user @tkthomasss wrote, “Marsai being a bird was not on my bingo card 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭”

While Instagram user @yosidthekid wrote, “Like y’all can’t tell me the villa girls were not doing the f**** most.”

Instagram user @the_infamous_ashley wrote, “No seriously how yall mad he picked who he liked its giving what ya’ll did last season with Taylor. Like isn’t that the point of love island”

Another Instagram user @diam0nddd_ wrote, “Oh wow I never thought I’d see the day where I had to call Ms. Marsai an airhead”

While Instagram user @1cysag wrote, “I liked you Marsai I really did…”

Political commentator Meghan McCain is weighing in on the intentionally false abuse claims against former presidential candidate Pete Buttegieg.

“Absolutely horrified at what happened to @PeteButtegieg and his family,” the former The View cohost, 41, wrote via X on Saturday, June 27. “I am so sick of dirty, cruel politics and am truly deeply upset by the involvement of his children. It is wildly f***ed up.”

She concluded, “This world has to do better.”

On Friday, June 26, the former secretary of transportation, 44, revealed that he had been the target of an intentionally fake abuse claim to child protective services (CPS), resulting in an investigation.

“Someone decided to hurt our family this week,” Buttigieg wrote via Substack. “They explained that there had been an allegation against me, that it concerned our 4-year-old twins and that a forensic interview had been arranged for the children the following day. I could not be present at the children’s interview, nor could any family member sit in.”

Buttigieg shares twins Penelope and Gus with his husband, Chasten Buttigieg. The pair married in June 2018, making Pete one of the most prolific openly gay politicians in American politics. As such, he has also been subjected to anti-LGBTQ attacks.

“I was bewildered and troubled, but tried to stay calm,” Pete continued in his Substack post. “I’m used to any number of falsehoods, attacks and serious problems being thrown my way. What I didn’t understand was what could have led to this kind of visit. Then, the CPS worker told me something that made my stomach turn: I was not to be alone around the children, at least until the interview took place the next day.”

As a result of the investigation, the former Mayor of Sound Bend, Indiana, was forced to leave his two children with their grandparents.

“The 24 hours until they returned are among the darkest hours of my life,” he wrote. “I tried to get my head around the idea that I had been accused of something so serious that I couldn’t be alone around my own children and had consented to have them interviewed by strangers, without my knowing where the accusation had come from or even what it contained.”

After the investigation and interview, authorities told Pete that the abuse claim was made by an “anonymous” individual.

“The caller said that he had spoken to a woman who claimed to have met me at a conference several years ago in Alabama, where she said I told her that I had committed unspeakable violent crimes, and the caller believed my children were still at risk,” Pete claimed. “That was all. The officer had a couple of obvious questions. He asked if I had been to a town where the woman claimed she had met me. I have not. Then, the officer made clear that he believed this was politically motivated, and said it would not be referred to a prosecutor.”

Neither the law enforcement officials nor CPS found evidence to substantiate the accuser’s allegation, meaning that Pete could resume watching his kids “unsupervised.”

“Now, our family is left to deal with the aftermath,” Pete stated in his essay. “I worry about any unseen effects this had on our kids, on Chasten and me and on the rest of our family. Even though the accusation was absurdly and obviously false, and was promptly rejected by law enforcement, I still worry about the harm it has done.”

Dean McDermott is celebrating a milestone in his sobriety journey.

“WOW we wee WOW!! 3 years!! Couldn’t have done it without my Family, Friends, Fellowship, Sponsor and a 12 step program!!” McDermott, 59, wrote via Instagram on Friday, June 26. “It all started with surrendering and asking for help.”

He continued, “The best decision I’ve ever made. If you’re struggling, reach out. I love you all.”

McDermott also uploaded a video, calling himself “clean Dean” and proclaiming that he is in good spirits.

Dean McDermott has a reason to celebrate after reaching one year of sobriety. The actor, 57, took to Instagram on Tuesday, July 2, to commemorate the milestone moment, writing, “Last week was an incredible week of love, hugs and recovery. Thank you to my Sponsor, my Sponsee Brothers and everyone in the fellowship for celebrating […]

“Today, June 26, I celebrate three years being clean and sober. Yes, it can be done,” he said. “I want to let you know out there if you’re suffering and you’re in pain [that] it can be done. If I can do it, you can do it. It starts by reaching out your hand and asking for help.”

McDermott continued, “I know in your darkest days that seems like Mount Everest to do that, but reach out. … Ask for help, it’s OK. You can’t do this thing alone, none of us can.”

McDermott, who stopped drinking following his 2023 divorce from Tori Spelling, initially blamed the demise of his marriage on his continued substance abuse issues.

“Alcohol made me feel good enough. I started feeling good enough until it got to a point where it didn’t — it ended up in isolation,” McDermott told the Daily Mail in November 2023. “It ended up with me drinking a fifth of tequila every night, seven days a week and a handful of [prescription medications] by myself with a beautiful family in the other room. That’s what it led to and that’s what led to the brokenness and to what happened between me and Tori. I couldn’t do it anymore. I couldn’t live that life anymore. I was tired of the anger and the yelling.”

According to McDermott, his alcohol-induced fights “petrified” Spelling, 53, and their five children. (McDermott also shares son Jack, 27, with ex-wife Mary Jo Eustace.)

“I would wake up angry that I woke up and I have these five, six beautiful kids in my life, but I was so dark and hopeless, I couldn’t see that,” McDermott recalled to the outlet, praising Spelling’s support. “She came from just such a place of love and wanting me to be healthy and happy. … It was codependence. She put my well-being well ahead of hers. She loved me so much that she didn’t really want to tell me how it was affecting her, although I could see it in her face.”

Spelling and McDermott finalized their divorce in November 2025, since pledging to be amicable coparents.

“We’re great coparents. Our relationship is fantastic,” McDermott exclusively told Us Weekly that month. “We’re a united front. It’s all about the kids. At the end of the day, we’re a family, right? And whether we’re together or not, I love Tori. I’ll love her for the rest of my life, and she’s gonna love me for the rest of her life.”

Courteney Cox is reportedly entering a new chapter in her life after quietly ending her long-term relationship with Snow Patrol musician Johnny McDaid.

The couple, who had been together for more than a decade, are said to have parted ways amicably after growing apart while living increasingly separate lives.

Despite the reported split, Courteney Cox and Johnny McDaid have remained respectful of one another, with sources describing the breakup as mutual and free of drama.

Cox has reportedly separated from her musician boyfriend, Johnny McDaid, after more than a decade together.

According to the Daily Mail, the couple quietly parted ways toward the end of last year, with sources close to the former pair saying the separation was mutual and free of drama, with both remaining on good terms despite deciding to move forward separately.

Cox, widely recognized for portraying Monica Geller on the hit sitcom “Friends,” has spent most of her time in Los Angeles, while McDaid, a member of “Snow Patrol” and acclaimed songwriter, has largely been based in London.

Friends suggest the distance and their increasingly different lifestyles played a role in the decision.

“Johnny speaks incredibly highly of Courteney. They had a very deep relationship, and they remain extremely amicable. They are great friends and care about each other very much,” a friend reportedly said.

“This was not an ugly split. They had simply reached a point where they were living different lives,” the source added.

A Look Back At Courteney Cox And Johnny McDaid’s Romance

The pair first met in 2013 through mutual friends, including singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, who has worked closely with McDaid throughout his career.

Their romance quickly blossomed, leading to an engagement in 2014, which had fans at the time anticipating a wedding.

Although they briefly split in 2015, they reconciled the following year and remained together for several years afterward.

Both had previously spoken warmly about their relationship. Cox once reflected that their earlier breakup ultimately strengthened their bond, while McDaid publicly expressed gratitude for having her in his life.

Johnny McDaid Is Already Dating Someone Else After His Split From The Actress

McDaid and Cox’s last public appearances together included a double date in Malibu last summer with fellow “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston and wellness coach Jim Curtis. They were also photographed attending the US Open in September.

Since ending their relationship, both are said to be focusing on new chapters in their personal lives.

Reports suggest McDaid has recently begun seeing someone new, and according to the Daily Mail, things are still fresh with the singer and his new lover.

Cox, on the other hand, has been romantically linked to actor Greg Kinnear after the two were spotted together in New York. However, the duo has maintained they are simply friends,

Courteney Cox Celebrates Daughter Coco’s 22nd Birthday With Heartfelt Tribute

While navigating this new chapter, Cox has continued to focus on family and remains close to her former husband, David Arquette.

The pair, who share daughter Coco Arquette, have long been praised for their cooperative co-parenting relationship.

Earlier this month, the actress marked Coco’s 22nd birthday with a touching tribute on social media, giving fans a rare glimpse into their mother-daughter bond. The post featured a series of photos, including a selfie that highlighted the pair’s striking resemblance. In the image, Cox and Coco posed cheek-to-cheek, showing off similar brunette hairstyles and matching freckles.

Another photo took followers back in time, showing a younger Courteney holding Coco as a child while spending time by the ocean.

Alongside the pictures, the actress shared a heartfelt message celebrating her daughter.

“Happy Birthday, Co,” she wrote. “You are such a wise soul. Funniest person I know and my life teacher. I love you.”

Courteney Cox Reflects On Close Bond With Daughter Coco After Heartfelt Birthday Tribute

The birthday tribute followed a similarly emotional message Cox shared for Coco’s 21st birthday the previous year. At the time, she posted a throwback photo from Coco’s infancy and expressed the depth of her love for her daughter.

“My heart barely fits inside my chest for the amount of love I have for you,” she wrote. “Keep it coming, Co to the Lo. I’m so happy I’m your Bourt Lemon. Happy birthday. I love you so much.”

Although Cox generally keeps family moments private, she and Coco have occasionally opened up about their relationship. During a joint interview in 2018, the pair spoke candidly about their close bond and the typical disagreements that come with raising a teenager. “We bicker, let’s be honest, but we love each other,” Cox said at the time. “We laugh a lot, for sure.”

The actress also admitted that, like many parents of teenagers, she sometimes wished her daughter would share more about her life. “I want her to tell me everything, and she doesn’t want to tell me anything,” she said. “Exactly the opposite of the childhood I had.”
