If a role doesn’t pan out for Sabrina Carpenter, there’s still a chance she could appear in a Mamma Mia! sequel. Amanda Seyfried is actively trying to get Carpenter cast in Mamma Mia 3 and hopes to expand the on-screen Mamma Mia! family. Seyfried would love to see her character, Sophie, with children, and thinks Carpenter could play a cousin. Carpenter is a big ABBA fan—she and Veronika Slowikowska even dressed as the band’s female members for Halloween—making her a perfect fit. Seyfried also mentioned Sydney Sweeney as another potential addition, saying many young actresses are eager to be involved.

Are you a fan of Jonathan Bailey? If so, seeing Wicked: For Good might turn you into a devoted follower. This new film is the second part of the Wicked musical adaptation, and its story runs alongside the events of The Wizard of Oz. However, Wicked: For Good also features a surprisingly intense and visually striking romantic storyline reminiscent of The Passion of the Christ.

According to Variety, Leonardo DiCaprio’s production company, Appian Way, is creating a new documentary called Oz, alongside Chad A. Verdi’s Verdi Productions and Danny Strong. Tom Donahue (Mafia Spies, This Changes Everything) is directing. The documentary will feature previously unseen footage and explore the making of the film, as well as the reasons for its enduring popularity.

The newest episode of NCIS: Origins explored Randy’s past in more detail, but it wasn’t a pleasant experience for him. A significant argument between Randy (Caleb Foote) and Franks (Kyle Schmid) took place, resulting in Franks breaking a computer in anger. Foote later discussed the impact of the fight and why these kinds of stories are crucial for the show’s overall narrative.

In a recent interview with Gold Derby, producer Barbara Campbell advised director Denis Villeneuve against drastically changing the James Bond formula, bluntly telling him not to “mess with it.” She explained that since Daniel Craig has finished his run as Bond, the franchise doesn’t need a complete overhaul – just a strong, well-made Bond film, as she enthusiastically put it.

For the first two seasons of the show, Jessi played a smaller role. At 33, she’s the oldest of the group and the only one with a business outside of social media—she owns a hair salon and extension brand called JZ Styles—which kept her somewhat separate from the main drama. However, things changed after season two when Marciano Brunette from Vanderpump Villa claimed they had a romantic relationship. This forced Jessi, known for her Utah Curls, to address her marriage publicly in season three. As she explains, “I felt like I had two choices: avoid the situation or face it head-on. Everyone was already talking about it, so I decided to share my perspective.”

A recent report from MyTimeToShineHello indicates that Marvel initially intended to tell the story of Avengers: Secret Wars across two movies, suggesting a very ambitious scope. However, the team has since decided to stick with a single film. Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled to hit theaters on December 18, 2026, and Secret Wars will follow on December 17, 2027.

While doing publicity for Wake Up Dead Man, Johnson talked to The Hollywood Reporter and gave fans an encouraging hint about a potential fourth Knives Out movie. He said:

Okay, so 2 Guns actually sticks pretty close to the comic it’s based on, which is good. But honestly, the movie just goes way over the top with everything. They cranked up the action and the jokes to eleven, trying to make this huge blockbuster. And in doing so, they totally missed what made the comic great: that really sad, but funny, feeling of a messed-up system that just destroys itself. It was smart and ironic in the comic, but the movie just feels…loud.
