Taylor Sheridan has assembled a star-studded cast in his newest hit The Madison — but who does each actor play after numerous shocking onscreen deaths?

According to the official synopsis, The Madison follows the Clyburn family from New York City, who “relocate to the Madison River valley of southwest Montana for emotional recovery following a tragedy that shattered the family.”

Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell make up the cast in addition to stars Patrick J. Adams, Elle Chapman, Matthew Fox, Beau Garrett, Alaina Pollack, Amiah Miller as members of the Clyburn family. Ben Schnetzer, Kevin Zegers. Rebecca Spence and Danielle Vasinova are also featured in the hit Paramount+ series.

“Taylor has a wonderful knack of putting what he wants to be known from the script into the script. There is always a specificity to what locations are — to what moment of the scene is the most resonant to character descriptions,” executive producer and director Christina Alexandra Voros exclusively told Us Weekly about collaborating with Sheridan. “There’s so much DNA in the scripts themselves that there are fewer conversations than you would think [between us]. We’ve been working together for a very long time. I feel lucky enough to have been trusted with interpreting his writing for screen for a very long time.”

Voros also weighed in on Russell calling The Madison “a very female-gaze-oriented show,” adding, “I agree with Kurt. It is through a feminine gaze. But Taylor has always written strong women. He has always imbued his female characters with ferociousness and complexity that is really exciting to play with as an actress and also as a director.”

She continued: “In some ways, The Madison feels like a more feminine gaze — perhaps because you have all of these female protagonists — but I think he has had that element in his writing all along.”

When it comes to classic rock, there are a few names that rank as particularly legendary, with an influence that has endured through the decades. Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, and the Rolling Stones are among those names, along with early trailblazers like Big Mama Thornton, Fats Domino, and Sister Rosetta Tharpe. But within the realm of mid-century counterculture, one band stands out: The Doors.

Formed in Los Angeles in 1965, The Doors became synonymous with psychedelic rock. Their unique melding of electronic elements with blues instrumentals set them apart from their contemporaries, influencing future rock acts such as Patti Smith, Iggy Pop, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. And while, as with any band, it’s impossible to distill The Doors’ legacy into a single song, one track epitomizes their influence more than any other: “Light My Fire,” the second single off their first album.

“Light My Fire” Is an Anthem for Its Era

The Doors recorded their eponymous debut album in 1966, just a year after they formed, but it wasn’t released until 1967. With it came three singles that remain among the band’s most popular songs: “Break On Through (To the Other Side),” “Light My Fire,” and “People Are Strange.” The first, a hard rock track with mambo influences, was a moderate hit in the United States and United Kingdom. “Light My Fire,” however, truly put the band on the map, spending three weeks at number one on the United States’ Billboard Hot 100.

The Doors’ entire discography is original, departing from the conventions of hard rock, blues, and folk that previously dominated the industry. Throughout their brief career (cut short by lead singer Jim Morrison’s untimely 1971 death), they infused their work with literary, poetic, and philosophical themes, even taking their name from Aldous Huxley’s The Doors of Perception, a title that was, in turn, borrowed from the poetry of William Blake. In terms of their sound, The Doors borrowed from jazz, hard rock, blues, classical, flamenco, mambo, and more. In songs such as “Light My Fire,” they also experimented with the organ and snare drum, crafting a wholly unique sound that came to define psychedelic rock and acid rock.

But the musical composition of “Light My Fire” isn’t the only element that made the song so groundbreaking upon its release. Its lyrics are overtly sexual, with its insistent chorus of, “Come on, baby, light my fire/ Try to set the night on fire.” Furthermore, lines such as “the time to hesitate is through” and “out love become a funeral pyre” infuse the song with a desperate longing that was both taboo in its time and dripping with existentialist dread. Thus, in both its rebelliousness and its depth, “Light My Fire” became an anthem for the counterculture movement of the late 1960s.

The Influence of “Light My Fire” Transcends Time and Genre

“Light My Fire” also transcended genre in its influence. Puerto Rican musician José Feliciano covered the track in 1968, transforming the anthem into a seductive acoustic ballad infused with Spanish flamenco guitar and subtle Caribbean rhythms. The cover earned Feliciano Grammy Awards for Best Contemporary Male Pop Vocal Performance and Best New Artist, and the original version of “Light My Fire” re-entered the Hot 100, peaking at number 87.

In “Light My Fire,” one can also hear how The Doors’ distinctive sound led to the development of newer rock subgenres. In addition to ushering in the psychedelic and acid rock genres that are still going strong, the band helped inspire the punk, goth, and grunge genres that blossomed in the decades that followed. Punk icon Patti Smith, for instance, wrote in her memoir Just Kids that Morrison’s poetic nihilism had a profound effect on her own work. Decades later, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain would compare himself to Morrison as a “rock and roll poet” in a 1991 interview with music journalist Roy Trakin.

“Light My Fire” is more than just The Doors’ defining track, although it can arguably be called just that. It’s also considered one of the greatest songs of all time for its singular sound—one that’s still considered groundbreaking—and its impact on music as a whole. In crooning those iconic lyrics over and over, Morrison truly did light a fire, though it was far from the one he expected.

Travis Scott sparked online speculation after sharing a post following the Academy Awards that some fans believed was aimed at Timothée Chalamet, who lost the Best Actor award to Michael B. Jordan.

The moment added to an already eventful night for Chalamet, which also included jokes from host Conan O’Brien and renewed debate over the actor’s past comments about opera and ballet.

The resurfaced remarks drew criticism from figures in the classical arts community, who defended the cultural relevance of the art forms while slamming Timothée Chalamet.

Travis Scott Appears To Shade Timothée Chalamet Following Oscar Loss To Michael B. Jordan

Travis Scott seemingly took a subtle jab at his ex-partner’s current boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet.

The moment came after the Academy Awards, where Chalamet, 30, was nominated for Best Actor but ultimately lost the award to Michael B. Jordan. Jordan, 39, appeared visibly emotional as he accepted the honor for his dual performance in the film “Sinners.”

Shortly after the ceremony, Scott, 34, posted a photo to his Instagram Stories showing Jordan wiping away tears during his acceptance speech.

Although the rapper did not include a caption, the post quickly sparked debate online, with some fans suggesting it was less about celebrating Jordan’s win and more about highlighting Chalamet’s loss.

Scott shares two children with Jenner: Stormi, eight, and Aire, four. The pair was in an on-and-off relationship beginning in 2017 before separating a few years later. Jenner then later began dating Chalamet.

Travis Scott’s Instagram Post Fuels Fan Speculation About Subtle Jab At His Ex-Partner’s Beau

Fans have previously accused Scott of referencing the actor in his music. On his track “Meltdown,” Scott appeared to allude to Chalamet’s role in “Wonka,” leading some listeners to interpret the lyrics as a subtle dig.

After the Instagram post circulated, users on platforms like X and Reddit weighed in with mixed reactions. Some found the move amusing, calling it “iconic,” while others criticized the rapper as being unnecessarily petty.

One commenter joked that Scott seemed unusually invested in the Oscars, while another argued the rapper should move on instead of targeting the man dating the mother of his children.

Others chimed in with remarks such as, “He’s so happy Timmy didn’t win,” and, “Last year he wanted Adrien Brody over Timmy, this year he’s supporting MBJ. Travis don’t f-ck with Timmy confirmed.”

Despite the speculation, the night could have led to an awkward encounter as Scott later attended the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, where Jenner and Chalamet were also present and reportedly appeared affectionate throughout the evening.

Timothée Chalamet’s ‘Marty Supreme’ Co-Star Kevin O’Leary Lost $1,000 Bet After Best Actor Upset At The Academy Awards

Meanwhile, Chalamet’s “Marty Supreme” co-star Kevin O’Leary revealed he had lost a $1,000 bet after the actor failed to take home the Best Actor prize.

O’Leary, 71, who plays Milton Rockwell in the upcoming film directed by Josh Safdie, said he had been confident Chalamet would win for his role as Marty Mauser. Instead, the award went to Jordan for “Sinners.”

Speaking to CNN on the red carpet, O’Leary said he had placed the wager shortly before entering the ceremony, explaining that he believed voting had already closed before controversy surrounding Chalamet’s comments about opera and ballet began circulating online.

“I just put 1000 bucks on Kalshi walking in here that he’s going to win,” he said, per the Daily Mail. “The kid is a great kid. He took a bum rap on that. And by the way, gave a lot of promo to opera houses and ballet.”

Conan O’Brien Jokes About The Actor’s Opera Comments During Academy Awards Monologue

Chalamet’s remarks about the art forms had drawn criticism in the days leading up to the awards ceremony.

During the broadcast, host Conan O’Brien referenced the controversy in his opening monologue, joking that security was especially tight because of potential “attacks from the ballet and opera communities.” “They’re just mad you left out jazz,” he quipped.

The camera then cut to Chalamet and his girlfriend Jenner in the audience, where the actor appeared to laugh along with the joke.

Later in the proceedings, O’Brien seemed to lighten the moment by addressing Chalamet again, telling the audience the two were simply “vibing.” Turning toward the actor, he asked, “We’re vibing, right?”

Chalamet’s response wasn’t picked up by the microphones, prompting O’Brien to add with a grin, “He doesn’t think so.”

Timothée Chalamet Faces Backlash Over Resurfaced Opera And Ballet Remarks As The Royal Ballet And Opera Responds

The controversy traces back to remarks Chalamet made during a conversation with his “Interstellar” co-star Matthew McConaughey for a Variety-produced Townhall, where the pair discussed shrinking attention spans and the challenges of keeping audiences engaged with slower-paced storytelling.

During the conversation, Chalamet joked that he wouldn’t want to be working in art forms like ballet or opera that struggle to maintain mainstream attention.

“I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera where it’s like, ‘Hey! Keep this thing alive even though no one cares about this anymore,” he said with a laugh, before adding that he meant “all respect” to those communities and joking that he had probably “lost 14 cents in viewership” by making the remark.

The comments quickly circulated online and drew criticism from members of the classical arts community.

A spokesperson for The Royal Ballet and Opera in the United Kingdom responded in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, pushing back against the suggestion that the art forms have lost their relevance.

“Ballet and opera have never existed in isolation,” the organization said, adding that both disciplines have long influenced theater, film, contemporary music, and fashion.

The statement noted that millions of people around the world still engage with the art forms today.

Yep, you read that title correctly. This is a movie about a real estate agent who forms a connection with a ghost haunting a house she’s trying to sell. But the craziest thing about this premise? How well it works! It’s a charming mix of romance, mystery, and supernatural elements, set against the backdrop of a heartwarming story. Anna (Julie Gonzalo) is charming and delightfully headstrong as the agent tasked with selling a historic home that turns out to be haunted. The resident ghost Ruby (Madeleine Arthur), an old-fashioned and charming spirit from the 1920s, has no intention of leaving the beloved abode. As Anna endeavors to solve the ghost’s unfinished business from a bygone era, Ruby becomes determined to get Anna back together with her ex (Chris McNally). creating a narrative that touches on themes of love, closure, and the importance of letting go.

McNally and Gonzalo are a real-life couple, which might be why their chemistry shines through so clearly in this romantic, surreal movie. In addition to the romance, the friendship between Anna and Ruby is really fun to watch develop. The dialogue is engaging, the scenarios are funny and there’s still that cozy Hallmark vibe despite the supernatural setting. It’s perfect for viewers seeking a cozy escape into a world where romance and history intermingle seamlessly.

While Whovians eagerly await the next chapter of Doctor Who‘s storied on-screen history, longtime fans can expect to also be seeing new-old adventures of one of Doctor Who’s most popular Time Lord regenerations. David Tennant is an embodiment of Doctor Who, with his decades-long presence with the franchise. He first appeared as the Tenth Doctor alongside Billie Piper’s Rose Tyler. Later, he would become the Fourteenth Doctor, returning to the face once again after the regeneration of Jodie Whittaker‘s Thirteenth Doctor. He would lead the 60th Anniversary Specials as The Fourteenth Doctor alongside returning companion Donna Noble (Catherine Tate).

Now, Big Finish Productions, as it has in years past, brought beloved characters to life that may no longer be the focal point of the current iteration of Doctor Who, the same is being done with Tennant’s Tenth Doctor (try saying that five times past.) The production company says there will be 15 brand-new, hour-long, full-cast audio adventures with the Tennant’s Tenth Doctor, beginning next year. According to Big Finish, the first 12 episodes of Doctor Who – The Tenth Doctor Adventures, are set to be released bimonthly beginning summer of 2027. There will also be a three-episode box set where Ten teams up with some of his other incaranations. A release date on that box-set is not yet confirmed. Upon returning to the TARDIS, Tennant says:

“Big Finish makes it dangerously easy – you turn up, have a lovely time, and suddenly you’ve saved the universe again.”

‘Doctor Who’ and Big Finish, What the Deal?

During a panel moderated by Collider’s Maggie Lovitt at MegaCon in Orlando, Florida, some former companions shared their experience returning to their beloved Doctor Who characters in the recording booth. The Tenth Doctor’s most strongly associated companion, Rose Tyler, has had a fair share of audio dramas published. Piper shared her experience, saying, “At first I think I get really nervous about how I’m gonna revert to, you know, my 21-year-old self. When you’re in the room with everyone, it’s… it’s… it’s just a sort of weird muscle memory that comes back. It’s just a nice way to connect with everyone, you know, I’m really grateful for them.”

While not much more is known about what these Tenth Doctor advetnures will entail, or if any former companions will be coming along with the Doctor for them, with Big Finish anything is possible. Nicholas Briggs, Big Finish’s creative director says of bringing Tennant back:

“We’re always on the look-out for David to return. He is such a busy, in-demand actor, sometimes it’s just not possible for him to find the time to come to the studio. But we’re always ready and waiting with new stories to tell and now he’s back and we’re loving every minute of it. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride during these new adventures. They’re fast, funny, scary audio dramas with surprises from the very first episode.”

The next batch of Doctor Who – The Tenth Doctor Adventures is now available for pre-order through Big Finish. Stay with Collider for the latest updates.

The romcom adaptations just keep coming. In 2023, Casey McQuiston‘s novelRed, White, & Royal Blue became a hit on Prime Video, with a sequel, Red, White, & Royal Wedding, announced not long after. The first film follows a delicious enemies-to-fake-friends-to-friends-to-lovers plot, starring Taylor Zakhar Perez as Alex Claremont-Diaz and Masters of the Universe‘s upcoming lead Nicholas Galitzine as Prince Henry. When the pair cause a bit of an international incident, they’re forced to act like friends, and eventually they become more than that. The cast also includes Kill Bill‘s Uma Thurman as Alex’s mother, President Ellen Claremont. She provides emotional support and stability for Perez’s Alex.

Talking with Collider’s Steve Weintraub at SXSW, Thurman explains that what lies ahead for the characters is just the beginning:

“Well, the first movie was full of lots of passion, and in this second movie, relationships go deeper, and they get harder. So, we know that happens, right? I mean, you fall in love, and then it starts.”

One thing that’s different about the upcoming sequel is that it’s not based on a novel, unlike the first film. Though the script is co-written by the author of Red, White, & Royal Blue, Casey McQuiston, along with the first film’s director, Matthew López. Jamie Babbit directs. As confirmed earlier this year during production, Galitzine stressed it’s indeed not Alex and Henry who are tying the knot. Along with Perez and Galitzine, Thurman is set to reprise her role as President Ellen Claremont. Sarah Shahi also returns. The cast of the original film also consisted of Stephen Fry (Gosford Park), Sarah Shahi (Black Adam), Ellie Bamber (Willow), Rachel Hilson (Love, Victor), Clifton Collins Jr. (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood), Sharon D. Clarke (Rocketman), Malcolm Atobrah (Rye Lane), Akshay Khanna (Polite Society), Aneesh Sheth (Jessica Jones), Polo Morin (Who Killed Sara?), Ahmed Elhaj (The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself), and Thomas Flynn (Bridgerton).

As for what comes next once the sequel is on the screens of eager viewers, Thurman explains:

“I think there will be a novel that will follow. I think that the story that Casey [McQuiston] did is coming through in screenplay form, but I have a feeling it’s very hotly behind in a novel form. So, it will be enjoyed in every medium.”

Hollywood’s biggest night delivered a career-defining moment for Michael B. Jordan. The actor secured his first-ever win at the Academy Awards, taking home Best Actor for his performance in the supernatural thriller “Sinners.”

Instead of heading to an exclusive Hollywood party or a luxury restaurant, the star made an unexpected stop that quickly caught fans’ attention. 

Still dressed in his formal wear and carrying his golden statue, Jordan was spotted pulling up to one of California’s fast-food favorites, In-N-Out, to show off his trophy.

Michael B. Jordan had plenty of options after taking home his first Academy Award, but the actor chose a celebration that was far more relatable than extravagant. 

Shortly after leaving the ceremony and the usual string of after-parties, Jordan stopped at In-N-Out Burger. A viral video shared on X showed the “Creed” actor in his black suit, holding his Oscar.

Jordan stood in front of the counter as he placed his order for a burger and fries. Beaming with excitement, numerous workers from the establishment came out to catch a glimpse of the actor.

Other customers in the restaurant also couldn’t take their eyes of Jordan, as they had their cameras out. At some point in the clip, the actor, overwhelmed with emotions, couldn’t hold back his smile. 

He posed for pictures, signed autographs for the excited workers, before expressing appreciation for the show of love. 

Fans Praise Jordan For His Humble Celebration 

Shortly after the video was shared, many fans trooped to the comments section to air their thoughts. 

Some users praised Michael B. Jordan for keeping his celebration simple and relatable.

“Michael B. Jordan keeping it real at In-N-Out with his Oscar? That’s how you celebrate a win. Humble, relatable, and inspiring at the same time!” one person commented.

Another fan wrote, “Not gonna lie, that’s a pretty wholesome sight…Big win, golden statue in hand, but still keeping it simple with burgers and good vibes. Moments like that make the victory feel even more real.”

A third user added, “A true champ move! Celebrating an Oscar win with an In-N-Out burger is as legendary as his performance in Sinners.”

Netizens Say Michael B. Jordan Didn’t Deserve The Win

Despite the significance of the emotional moment, not all the comments were positive. Some fans maintained that while Jordan was a great actor, he didn’t deserve the Oscar win.

“So damn crazy that movie won an Oscar. It’s just a regular decent movie. Before Hollywood went completely insane this movie wouldn’t have even been on any nomination lists,” one disappointed fan wrote.

Another user shared, “Before Hollywood turned to garbage, this movie would have been a B movie, sad.”

A third person shared, “DEi Award. The movie was okay/good. But nowhere near Oscar worthy. But then again movies are complete sh-t these days so maybe they did win legit.”

Other users didn’t believe Jordan was genuinely celebrating at In-N-Out. According to them, it was an advert for the restaurant, which they thought was “cringe.”

Jordan Bags His First Historic Oscar Win For ‘Sinners’

Michael B. Jordan’s performance in “Sinners” placed him at the center of one of the year’s most ambitious projects. 

In the film, set during the 1930s, he portrays twin brothers Smoke and Stack, who return to the American South after World War I and open a juke joint, only for supernatural forces to descend on the town.

The role earned Jordan his first Academy Award nomination and ultimately his first win in the Best Actor category.

“I stand here because of the people that came before me,” he said during his speech per Variety, referencing pioneers including Sidney Poitier, Denzel Washington, Jamie Foxx, Forest Whitaker, and Will Smith, along with Halle Berry.

He added, “To be amongst those giants, those greats, amongst my ancestors, amongst my guides… Thank you everybody in this room and everybody at home for supporting me over my career.”

Jordan also expressed gratitude to audiences who have followed his journey over the years, adding, “I feel it. I know you guys want me to do well, and I want to do that because you guys bet on me. So thank you for keeping betting on me.”

Michael B. Jordan Reflects On Career Journey After Oscar Victory

Jordan’s win followed a competitive awards race against fellow nominees, including Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ethan Hawke, and Wagner Moura.

Momentum shifted in Jordan’s favor late in the season after he won at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, previously known as the Actor Awards.

Taking the stage, Jordan reflected on the personal significance of the moment. “Man, God is good. God is good,” he said before acknowledging family members who were present for the milestone.

“Momma, what’s up? You know how I feel about my mother. And my father is here. Pops, where you at? My dad came from Ghana to be here.”

He also praised longtime collaborator Ryan Coogler, who directed him in several films, including “Fruitvale Station,” “Creed,” “Black Panther,” and “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”

“You’re an amazing, amazing person,” Jordan said. “I’m so honored to call you a collaborator and a friend. You gave me the opportunity and space for me to be seen. I love you too, bro.”

The actor closed by thanking moviegoers who helped turn “Sinners” into a major success.

“Everybody at home who supported ‘Sinners’ and went to see the movie once, twice, three, four times… thank you,” Jordan concluded. “You made this movie what it is.”
