Jackman appeared on The Late Showon Thursday while promoting his new film, Song Sung Blue, which is about the real-life Neil Diamond tribute band, Lightning & Thunder. To celebrate, the actor sang “Sweet Caroline,” but he totally changed the lyrics, telling Colbert it was a surprise for him. Now, I am both singing along and crying after watching this lovely tribute:

Bowen Yang joined Saturday Night Live as a writer in 2018 and became a featured player the following season. He made history as the first Asian and second openly gay man to be a cast member on the show. Yang quickly became known for his work on “Weekend Update,” creating memorable characters like Chinese trade representative Chen Biao and the Titanic iceberg. He’s also popular for sketches like “Bowen’s Straight,” “Straight Male Friend,” and “Charades with Mom.” Many viewers remember his hilarious portrayal of George Santos, the politician, whom he played as a constant liar and performer.

While Avatar: The Way of Water used high frame rate (HFR) technology a little bit three years ago, the new film, Fire and Ash, uses it much more often – and it’s noticeable. Director James Cameron estimates around 40% of Fire and Ash is filmed in HFR, particularly in underwater sequences and scenes with a lot of movement. This causes the frame rate to change frequently throughout the movie. Although Cameron has specific artistic reasons for this approach, the constant switching between 48 and 24 frames per second felt disorienting and made some scenes feel disjointed, almost like watching a rough cut of the film.

In an interview with Vulture, Arnaud spoke about Scott’s kiss with Kip in episode 5 of Heated Rivalry. He explained how this moment reveals Scott’s character and what it signifies for their relationship. The actor shared that Scott has been hiding his true self due to loneliness and built emotional walls, but he finally allowed himself to be vulnerable and break those walls during a major team victory.

Details about Scream 7 are still scarce, and that uncertainty seems to be shared by some of the actors involved. Fans are excited about Neve Campbell returning as Sidney, but many are wondering how characters who previously died will reappear. In a recent interview with Us Weekly, actor Skeet Ulrich discussed his return to the Scream series, explaining:

Cameron recently stated he feels he didn’t receive proper credit for the film, claiming the Writers’ Guild overlooked his contributions. While the official writing credit went to W. Peter Iliff, Iliff himself confirmed Cameron did work on the movie and expressed his respect for the director of Avatar. Iliff went on to say…

While stars like Johnny Cash, Meryl Streep, Dustin Hoffman, and Michelle Pfeiffer could have easily played themselves on The Simpsons, they actually made a bigger splash by taking on quirky Springfield characters – think Jessica Lovejoy or the Space Coyote.

I first fell in love with Hugh Jackman as Wolverine way back in the 2000 X-Men movie, and he’s been absolutely amazing in the role ever since! He’s played Wolverine so many times over the years – in X2 (2003), X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), the origin story X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009), X-Men: First Class (2011), The Wolverine (2013), X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014), X-Men: Apocalypse (2016), the incredibly emotional Logan (2017), and now, unbelievably, he’s back for Deadpool & Wolverine in 2024! It’s just incredible to see him return.

Starting January 1, 2026, Disney Vacation Club Management, LLC (DVCM) will charge a $500 fee to process the closing of any resale contract. This fee is the same for all contracts, no matter the resort, the number of points purchased, or the size of the contract.

According to Variety, Avatar: Fire and Ash earned $12 million in early previews domestically, suggesting a strong opening weekend. While this is lower than the $17 million earned by The Way of Water, it’s a good indication of how the film will perform. Current projections estimate Fire and Ash will make between $90 and $105 million by the end of the weekend – more than the original Avatar from 2009, but less than The Way of Water‘s $134 million. The film’s long-term success will depend on how well it continues to draw audiences in the coming weeks, as both previous films had incredibly strong runs. However, it’s already clear that audiences are still interested in James Cameron’s Avatar franchise.
