I just saw the coolest news on X! Tom Cruise announced his next project with Alejandro G. Iñárritu – it’s a movie called Digger. Apparently, it’s going to be a really wild comedy – they’re calling it a “comedy of catastrophic proportions!” – and we’ll finally get to see it in October 2026. I’m already excited!
Many excellent crime movies have been made, and some are truly exceptional. But only a small number manage to build momentum and become increasingly captivating as the story unfolds. These films share a certain energy, rhythm, and visual style, often guided by a strong directorial vision, which ultimately gives them lasting appeal.
Netflix described the series as a coming-of-age story about a gay teenager’s search for identity and acceptance while serving in the military during the 1990s, under the ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ policy. Though critics liked the show, military leaders criticized it for what they saw as a pattern of entertainment companies imposing their own beliefs onto the armed forces, which they believe prioritize discipline and results.
MrBeast isn’t the only celebrity making an impact on the new season of Survivor. The trailer shows Rick Devens mentioning a “Billie Eilish Boom-a-Rang Idol,” an appearance by Zac Brown, and Christian Hubicki suggesting Jimmy Fallon could influence his fate. While this star power is generating buzz, some viewers question if this is the right way to honor the show’s history. The last time a celebrity directly affected the game was in 2013 with Survivor: Cagayan, when Tyler Perry introduced a powerful idol that helped Tony Vlachos win. Host Jeff Probst was still expressing regret over that idol years later, and these new celebrity influences could lead to even more apologies down the line.
I generally avoid eating or drinking anything right before bed. But if I had to pick something, and it’s a bit of a reach, I’d go with water or a margarita—maybe even both! Definitely not food, though.
Amazon MGM Studios has unveiled a trailer for The Sheep Detectives, giving a first look at how a group of sheep are solving a murder mystery involving Hugh Jackman. The trailer features the flock searching for evidence and helping a somewhat clumsy police officer, played by Nicholas Braun. The sheep become particularly interested when they discover someone stands to inherit $30 million from Jackman’s will.
Fans are frustrated again about who’s appearing on the island, but this time it’s not about the contestants. The trailer for Survivor 50 heavily features celebrities, including appearances by Mr. Beast and Zac Brown in Fiji. It also hints at Jimmy Fallon influencing the game and a special idol themed after Billie Eilish.
In a recent interview with Variety, executive producer Miller revealed the planned plot for a second season of Boots. Miller, who is thankful for the opportunity to create a military drama with LGBTQ+ representation, explained that the show would have followed the main characters as they went to war if it had been renewed. Here’s what Miller shared about the storyline:
Though not part of an established series, Project Hail Mary is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated films of 2026. Its realistic and scientifically grounded style is similar to the popular 2015 film The Martian, which starred Matt Damon and was directed by Ridley Scott – a thrilling story about survival on Mars. Now, eleven years later, Project Hail Mary has the potential to be a breakout sci-fi success in 2026, proving that a film doesn’t need to be connected to a major franchise to capture audiences.
Released in 1965, For a Few Dollars More is a standout Western from early in Clint Eastwood’s career. When people talk about The Man With No Name Trilogy, the conversation often focuses on the first and last films, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. This middle installment sometimes gets overlooked, but it’s a fantastic movie in its own right. Though it didn’t begin the series, nor did it have the epic scope of the final film, For a Few Dollars More is a dark and gripping story, notable for its complex plot and the strong performances from Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef.
